#she would have been so gooooooooooood

[maeshelix]

HI HI... it's Leolithe here! FINALLY INTERACTING. I see you in the notes of my Lotus posts and i am DEATHLY curious to know your opinions on the Lotus system! Both as characters in general and also what you'd love and/or hate to see in their story. The idea of a Sentient AI mimic who is a system is so incredible to me, but I wonder if there's anything about Natah, Lotus or Margulis you would change?

Also, how many of you have played Warframe? Has everyone tried it or is it just not everyone's cup of tea? Should I direct my questions to specific people in the system? I'd love to hear more Lotus thoughts!! :3

Before we respond, here's a message from Rokoko:

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOUR ART IS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD AND YOURE SO RIGHT ABOUT THE LOTUS OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG AAAAAAAAAAAAH 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃

Now, to answer your questions. I'll start with the last ones.

We've all played Warframe, and each have found something to enjoy in it.

We used to play it on the Switch, long before we found out we're we. Eventually stopped for reasons I can't remember. Probably because it was Warframe on the Switch. Lmao.

Recently ported our account to PC, which has been nice. Caught up on everything, so now we're just taking turns making frames and enjoying the loop. Learning how to mod. Deep in the grind. Ignoring rivens cause they scare us. The usual, I'm sure. Lmao.

Asking specific members for their opinions is fine. Just will take longer to get answered. Unless you're lucky. We can't really control who fronts, unfortunately. But you can still do it, if you're curious about one of us. They'll definitely appreciate the attention. Probably. Lmao.

On the Lotus, we absolutely love her. Love all three of them.

Zero loves Lotus and Natah the most. She's an AI, so she relates to their struggles, but we are all enamored with them.

Marguils' resolve, Natah's tenacity, Lotus' deducation. Their histories with Ballas. Their histories with the Orokin in general. Their histories with eachother. With Marguils' memory, her legacy, before she came back. Their love for the Tenno. Their children. Their dedication to protecting the origin system.

All three are amazing. Their plurality is very interesting, originally being a synthetic mimic with two different sets of memories in them. Eventually culminating in three different entities in one. It's unique and engaging.

Our favorite characters in Warframe, to be sure. They're amazing.

We'd love to seem their plurality be more noticable, in the future. We're all in on them being plural, but it is admittedly easy to miss. A line of dialogue unheard, a helmet left uninteracted, a line of text left unread, and you're probably not gonna know they're plural. We want them to start bickering during a mission. We want Lotus to be explaining something, ony the go silent for a time, then for Natah or Marguils to take over. We want some way to talk to them outside of missions, for character moments.

I don't know how likely any of these will be, personally. But we'd like to see them.

That's also what we'd change, honestly. The inability to change between the three was annoying, so we'd remove that from The New War. Or add a fourth option of "take turns". We want to see them interact. We want a blatenly in-your-face system.

We'd hate for Natah and Marguils to be forgotten, eventaully. For Lotus to be considered the default. For some convoluted story beat to fuse them all into one mind, as is annoyingly common in system stories. Since that's the only good end singlets can imagine for a system. Natah and Marguils getting forgotten would be disappointing and annoying, but if they all fused into one we'd probably drop Warframe immediately.

Hope these answers are good @leolithe. Don't know if I did a good job of expressing our love for this system but, we do truly love them. Thank you for the question.

“WOOOOOHOO!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOD EVENING LADIES AND INSECTS, IT’S SO LOVELY TO SEE ALL YOUR UGLY LITTLE FACES IN THE CROWD TODAY!!”

...Starting off with the first episode, here. The beginning of this whole mess.

(...) Hmm. How could the tomatoes be thrown and a body heard hitting the ground after being 'shot' at, yet not a single duplicate in the audience (as of yet, then)?

Maybe the Oldest was on to something that it was easy for the Fake Noise to misdirect viewers with, well, noises. Noises and sound effects. It's in the name. The tomatoes? Maybe a few hidden clones in the more-darker areas. If they can puddle like the frogs, then maybe it would be easy to hide from view. ...Unless F.N could also summon objects out of thin air just like DB could. Possibly.

Nothing much from here nor there other than that it was the first 'appearance' of a F.N. Duplicate in the latter.

None from here, either. But geez, despite their 'less than pleasant' first interaction (that Wario eventually made up, thankfully), Banana knew Wario didn't deserve that.

Only more of that audience ventriloquism here, up until the duplicates fully made their debut in the audience. All of them direct replicas of the 'host' in physical appearances...

...but not in mind(?).

...Odd. Were they clapping for the main guy getting hurt, or was that just him?

Then came the meat grinder bit. How the Fake Noise easily reformed after having been turned into a cheese puddle. No doubt thanks to the shared DNA between it whatever cheese was used with the frogs, and Pizzahead himself.

“Oh, WOW! That was EMBARRASSING, FOLKS! So sorry ya had to see that awful display!” “Looks like I must'a FORGOTTEN about one of you back in Italy! Leeeeeet’s just FIX THAT UP real quick!”

...'Italy'? Was that supposed to be the 'lab' that Pizzahead made him and the frogs in? He had to assume so; he doubted that it had something to do with the real country. Papeeno seemed to mention it a lot, too.

Then. The Fake Noise crushed the pink frog (that he knew NOW was Gold's sister, oops.)

Then he blended her.

And then drank her.

And then. Technical difficulties title card. The 'end' of the first episode .

...Yeah, there was no denying that CC was drunk live in public. Even if she happened to reform from being blended just like how Fake Noise did with the meat grinder, she was as good as absorbed if Pizzahead's word about clones absorbing those of similar genetics was anything to go by.

Again. WHY, Pizzahead, why...?

This... really did feel like it was played 'safe for a first episode'. Well, 'safe' in terms of how much Fake Noise kept to himself, anyways.

Maybe the second episode may hold some more hidden details.

Yo that last Wereroomies was SO FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOD, you're an absolute master!

It did get me thinking though - you said earlier that Pretty prefers if Chan just doesn't intervene, but it's clear that he needs to hold himself back. If it was closer to full moon, would it be harder for him to keep his cool? Does he just remove himself from the situation if he starts getting the urge to punch someone when they're being an asshole? Because I can imagine there have been multiple times where he just really wants to shut someone up for how they talk about Pretty, regardless of if she's there to hear it or not.

it would be harder for him to not get involved the closer he is to a full moon night, i think... considering how their instincts tend to overtake their logic human minds

if she's there, she'll try her best to do damage control, if she isn't.... Chris will absolutely do his best to just hold back and step away to respect her wishes, or maybe to just respond with a snarky comment instead of getting physical about it, but i'd say there had probably been instances in which he has butted in because of how pissed he was... noses have ended up broken and it surely wasn't Chris' lol (she tries her best to understand, taking into account the whole, you know, animal side of her boyfriend, but i wouldn't be surprised if there'd been an argument or two about this before)

You know who would have made a fantastic Valkyrie Cain??? Winona fucking Ryder that's who.

[99liners]

About liberosis- I loved this! Like wow!! Was this a crazy crazy ride!! I loved every second of it. I am still processing how damn freaking gooooooooooood it was!!!!! Totally worth canceling my man over, lol 😆❤️

Now my two cents- First off who came up with the idea of yoongi smoking? Cause he looked fucking hot in my imagination! I imagined it to be kind off like the scene in gangster squad where Ryan smokes after the wild night with Emma. In case you don’t know, this is what I am talking about-

Also yoongi in general, the way it’s been written is freaking hot!! I never realized how bad we needed lawyer yoongi in life!! 🔥🔥🔥

And can we take a second to discuss the party scene!! Like woo hoo- it’s so refreshing to me to see all the girls just so skillfully bitching about their husbands. There is something so heart warming about it. Made me wanna call up my girls and have an adult sleepover with them.

About inaya not drinking, I strongly think that either it’s that She is already pregnant (I feel some strong ass vibe for forced pregnancy) or Jin is tryna knock her up- because women do stop drinking to increase fertility- and is basically forcing her into not drinking 👀 I wonder what is it 🤔

And in the beginning I sort of felt a little bad for Yoongi, I mean he lost his parents and is living with guilt of it. But the AUDACITY OF LIL SHIT TO TREAT HIS WIFE THE WAY HE DID!!!!!!!! Having a messed up past is no excuse to be an arse- especially as big as yoongi is. 😶🙃

And alas- that sex scene- ITS HOT IN HERE PEOPLE!!! 🔥🥵🥵 And his wife is so damn bold- GET THAT DICK GIRL!!! Yass queen!!!

Overall- another fine as fuck piece of writing by the in house legend- Ms. Jaimie ❤️‍🔥✨😘

Yeah girl!! You rule boo ❤️❤️

it wasn't exactly an idea,,, it just came naturally? xD

i don't think i know many lawyers who don't smoke. almost every lawyer i know smokes — idk if they do it for aesthetic or whatever but they claim they smoke cause of the pressure which is 100% true. the workload and pressure is top tier in this field, irrespective if you are a junior lawyer or the owner of a law firm. and the pressure literally never goes away.

also that scene from the movie is literally what i had mind while writing,,, and i have never even watched the movie

again, i am not saying a word about aphotic (❁´◡`❁)

i think i felt bad for him too while writing,,, most of the parts of the story were not pre-decided. i winged almost all of the plot based around the contractual marriage thingy and i tried to imagine how would a person feel knowing that they got their parents killed cause of their good deeds. some people find closure and move on, others don't (basically with every situation in life) and yoongi is one of those who choose the latter. he becomes bitter knowing all well that he can't do shit to bring his parents back yet he chooses to be like this.

yeah, shiza is v bold,,, tanaz and shiza are the same league for our dear tsunderes.

thank you so much !!! <333 nothing makes me happier than seeing that you all enjoyed it <333

“Oh my gooooooooooood this is so boring! Friday nights are usually crazy with crime, how is it so dead out here?” Peter said to himself. 

“Crime levels fluctuate, Peter,” Karen said into his ear, startling him so hard he almost fell off the side of the building he was sitting on. “Though I did get a report of a disturbance a few streets away. My guess is law enforcement will not arrive for about ten minutes, plenty of time to help out and leave before you get caught.”

“Finally, good lord,” Peter said, shooting a web and swinging his way towards the street Karen indicated. “I mean it’s a Friday, where’s all the raging drunk college kids doing stupid stuff?”

“Perhaps they have all gone to sleep, Peter. It is rather late.”

“Pfft, it’s nine o’clock, the day’s just getting started for them,” Peter said with a snort. Peter landed with a flip on a building by his destination. “Karen, where exactly did you say--”

A scream cut him off and Peter whirled to look down in a dimly lit alleyway. 

“Shit, Karen, night vision please?”

“Of course, Peter.”

Peter could suddenly see a man cornering what looked to be a woman and her son. The man lunged at them and the woman punched him hard, and Peter could hear the snap of one of her fingers from even up on the roof. Peter quickly lept down as the woman howled in pain. 

“Woah! Hey hey buddy what’re you doing!?” Peter shouted as the man recovered from her punch. He pointed a sharp pocket knife at Peter and snarled, “Give me all your money you little brat!” Peter rolled his eyes. 

“Why is it always the same with you guys? Can none of you get that I’ve beat up supervillains? What in the hell makes you think you’ll last longer than the Vulture?” Peter scoffed. The man faltered but didn’t back down, still pointing the blade directly at Peter’s face. 

“Goddamit--I need this money!” The man growled. 

“You don’t need anything enough to kill someone over it man,” Peter said. “Now are you gonna leave so we don’t have to do the ‘you struggle while I win’ thing, or is that the route you prefer? Remember, this action will have consequences.”

Heh, Ned would appreciate the Life is Strange reference, Peter thought absentmindedly. Hey actually I’m not sure how far he got on that game, I gotta ask him about that tomorr--

Peter’s thoughts were interrupted by the man suddenly swinging the blade far too close to Peter’s chest. 

“Woah!” Peter said, doing his best to dodge the man’s swings but stay in front of the woman and her son behind him. “Not cool man!” Peter stopped the mugger’s fist on the fourth swing, squeezing his arm hard until he shouted and dropped the knife. Peter threw him against the wall and webbed him there muttering angrily to himself. 

“Stupid fucking ADHD. Of course I forget my meds on a Friday, the day I should be the most focused! Dammit! C’mon Spider-Man, way to be an idiot,” Peter said as he scribbled a note and stuck it to the webbing over the man’s chest. 

He turned to face the woman who was still holding her hand with a grimace while her son wailed next to her. 

“Oh jeez, yeah that’s definitely broken, here lemme help with that,” Peter said as he saw a deep bruise blossoming over her dark skin. He shot a bit of webbing into his hand and gently wrapped it around her fingers. “That’s gonna dissolve in an hour so you’ll wanna get that checked out as soon as possible, um, I know someone who can help out if you need the bills paid for that--”

“It’s fine, I’m actually a nurse,” the woman said with a strained chuckle. She glanced up at Peter, but her expression suddenly changed to a look of horror. “Oh god, Spiderman--”

“Woops, I can just tell you missed a hyphen there,” Peter said, giving her a good natured glare. “It’s Spider, hyphen, Man. Man with a capital ‘M’. Sorry, I’m a bit of a stickler for this stuff--”

The small boy next to them cut him off with an ear splitting wail, and Peter suddenly felt his heart squeeze. 

“Aw, kiddo, you’re alright!” Peter said, squatting down to be at eye-level with the child. He only cried harder, scrubbing his eyes and sniffling miserably in fear. 

Peter gently touched his shoulder and looked right into his eyes. 

“Hey,” he said softly. That seemed to calm him down a bit, his wails shrinking into small whimpers. “What’s your name kiddo?”

“M-Miles,” he squeaked. 

“Miles, huh? That’s a pretty cool name.”

“Not as cool as Spider-Man,” he huffed. 

“Well who knows, kid! Maybe you’ll be Spider-Man someday too!” Peter said. Miles’s eyes lit up excitedly and he bounced on his feet. 

“Would you teach me!?”

“Ha! I’m sure you could guilt me into it with those little puppy eyes,” Peter said. Miles made his best little doe eyes and Peter gasped. 

“Oh no! I’ve been defeated by the cuteness! You’re too powerful Spider-Man!” he cried. Miles giggled in delight and Peter squinted his eyes in a mocking glare. 

“Alright kid. Spider-Man lesson number one: Don’t watch the mouth, watch the hands!” 

Peter flung an arm up and shot a web, flying high into the air with an elated shout. Peter could hear Miles shrieking with glee below and he smiled.

“See ya later Spider-Man!” 

And Peter headed to the tower, taking no notice of the wet warmth dripping down his side. 

~~~

Peter arrived at Stark Tower right on time for his curfew, which he still felt was too early to be heading home. Ten pm? Really?

But Tony said Aunt May would flay him alive if he let Peter break curfew just because she’d be gone for a week, and to be honest, Peter 100% believed him. She’s definitely a bit of a momma bear. 

Peter quietly opened one of the windows, only noticing Tony was there when he jumped in surprise. 

“Jesus kid, you about scared the hell outta me. You gotta quit that, you know I have heart problems,” he said, tossing his phone to the side on the couch. 

But oddly enough, Peter was having a hard time hearing him. Or at least focusing on hearing him. Probably his ADHD again. 

“Heheh,” Peter said, his laugh feeling weak. What was he laughing at again? Man, he really should’ve taken his medication. 

“Kid? You alright?” Peter ignored him, staring at something on the window he’d just climbed through. It was a footprint, but it looked all smeared, and oddly… red. 

“Wassat?” he mumbled, staring at the bloody footprint, and feeling rather dizzy. Was this an ADHD thing? He couldn’t remember. 

“Oh my god, Peter! Shit, kid you’re bleeding!” Tony said through the water that seemed to be surrounding Peter’s ears. 

“Hmm?” Peter said. Then he looked down at himself and realized there was a deep cut along his side, and blood had leaked out and run all the way down his leg. 

Tony was saying something else, grabbing his arms and trying to lead him somewhere, but Peter resisted. He didn’t want to get blood tracked all over the carpet. 

“Pr’tty sure this stuff ‘s s’pposed to stay inside me,” Peter mumbled. But the sight of his own blood flowing out of him had made Peter dizzy, and he very suddenly wasn’t worrying much about the carpet anymore. 

In fact, he wasn’t worrying about anything at all. 

~~~

Peter’s side was rather sore when he woke up in a hospital bed, though he was more surprised by the hospital bed than he was about the ache. Peter pushed himself into a sitting position and winced as pain lanced up his side. 

“Careful kiddo,” a voice said from the doorway. There was Tony, standing there with his arms crossed and eyebrows raised. “You don’t wanna rip a stitch.”

“Oh. Yeah that’s a good idea. Wouldn’t wanna, um, do that.” They stared at each other for a moment before Tony rolled his eyes and gave him a soft smile. 

“What I wanna know, is how the hell you swung all the way to the tower without noticing you had a seven-inch long gash in your side,” he said. 

“Um… ADHD?”

“Ha! Well whatever you were thinking about must’ve been pretty damn distracting,” Tony prompted. Peter grinned, thinking back. 

“I met this little kid named Miles. He said he wanted to be Spider-Man like me. I told him I’d teach him if he ever did become Spider-Man, I was thinking about what I’d show him,” Peter said. Tony’s gaze softened as he walked over. 

“Well that’s real nice of you kid. But, you know that even though that gash will heal by tomorrow I still gotta tell your Aunt about this, right?” he said. He held out a cup of strawberry Jell-O, which Peter took with a snort.

“Yeah yeah, but can we just save that for later? I think I should recover from this before going into another battle,” Peter said, making his own version of Miles’s doe eyes. Tony scoffed and ruffled Peter’s hair. 

“Sure kid. Eat your Jell-O and we’ll go watch some Star Wars,” he said. 

Peter grinned widely and ate his treat, too distracted by the warmth in his chest to care about the ache in his side.

There are experiences in my life that I am still struggling to decide if I am allowed to label as dysphoria. How the discomfort with my body after puberty was so palpable, an old woman once stopped me on the way out from church to assure me that my new curves were natural and nothing to be ashamed of. The dread of going clothes shopping with my mom. Knowing I'd spend the day in a painful awareness of my own self. My own wrongness. The panic I would feel every single time I packed clothes to go back home. When space and expression were limited. The years I spent unable to look at myself in the mirror because of the intense depersonalization it triggered. But was that dysphoria, or just the way a mother's hatred for her own body maps so neatly onto her child's?

I remember at some point deep in the midst of the period, drawing a self-portrait in chalk on the walls outside my bedroom. A kind of immersion therapy where I studied the curves in the lines of my face and tried to understand them. Tried to find something of value, of recognition in them. I ended up with something I was quite proud of. A messy recreation of my hair pulled back in a pony tail, chunk of amethyst around my neck. Expression comepletly neutral. Wearing the oversized hoodie that my husband today refers to as "the depression hoodie." It was me and I did not hate it. And while I managed to find some peace that day, I didn't truly start building a healthy relationship with my body until the day I started roller derby. It was the first time my relationship to my body was not antagonistic. We were working together to see what I could I do. Everyday improving, able to do more. I was capable of so much. I learned how to take up space and hold it. I learned how to push myself past what I thought was possible and revel in it. My body was strong and I was so proud of it. I learned how to use make up and clothes to be intimidating or flashy or loud. And I loved it. I loved the theater of it all. But was that Euphoria at finally finding a version of womanhood, a decidedly queer womanhood, that resonated with me? Or is a mask more fun to wear when you get to design it yourself?

I never truly felt comfortable in a dress until it became an option alongside my Dickies and work boots. Today my two favorite outfits are a little black dress that so beautifully shows off those curves I hated in high school. And an oversized red and blue plaid button-up that so perfectly hides them. I don't always know what to make of this. They are both me and they are both not me. A costume I've designed to express something far less tangible.

Some of us just get so comfortable with discomfort, it's hard to know it's even there until suddenly one day it isn't. I spent the weekend on a business trip where everyone involved referred to me as a woman. Because I am. I think. And because I have not yet told them that I am anything more than that. And it wasn't until I got back home and heard my husband refer to me as "they" that I released a breath I had not realized I had been holding. I told him it felt exactly like coming home and taking my bra off after a long day. I don't yet know what to make of it. But I am learning to give myself space for not always knowing the answers. Trying to enjoy the act of exploration itself.

gender is something we made up. But in the same way a toaster is also something we made up. And I'm not going to go into someone else's house and smash up their toaster because i personally don't care for toast.

February 1, 2021: Dirty Dancing (1987)

There are two people to credit for the beginning of this month. The first is my girlfriend, who asked that I represent her with this GIF.

Thank you, dear. Anyway, this is one of her favorite romance films, and she’s also not a big romance movie person. She was shocked that I hadn’t seen it, and that’s because of the second person to credit here: my Mom.

That is my Mom in the late ‘80s with her Pomeranian, Pugsley. Yup. This is just the GODDAMN SURFACE of my Mom, who’s quirky as shit. Love her for it, though. But, OK, why is my Mom involved here? Because this is also one of her favorite films. My Dad’s, too, but I’ll talk more about him in April.

However, if you read the Romance February introduction from yesterday, you might be wondering something. If my Mom’s taste in romance movies was so prevalent in my early life, how in the hell have I never seen this movie, one of her favorites? Especially considering the fact that, TMI here, but I WAS BORN TO THE FILM’S SOUNDTRACK. YES. REALLY. HOW HAVE I ESCAPED THIS MOVIE?

Yup. No clue. Shall we remedy that? SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

Recap

It’s 1963 in the Catskills, where Frances “Baby” Houseman (Jennifer Grey), a politically conscious young woman on her way into the Peace Corps, is going on vacation with her parents, Jake and Majorie Houseman (Jerry Orbach and Kelly Bishop), and her sister, Lisa (Jane Brucker). The owner, Max Kellerman (Jack Weston), who’s a friend of the Housemans, welcomes them to the resort.

Later that night, Max is briefing the young male waiters and entertainment, all of whom are hired from Ivy League universities. Well...except for the intriguing young dance instructor in the sunglasses. THAT...would be Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze).

I wanna just say before I forget, I miss Patrick Swayze. He’s awesome, and he left far too soon.

The next night, during dinner, Max introduces Baby to his grandson, Neil (Lonny Price), who’s just graduated from Cornell’s Hotel Management school. A school which, for the record, is the best hotel school in the USA, and second or third in the world. Also, hotelies (that’s what we called them) are CRAZY. They’re an interesting...bunch...

I, uh... I went to CornellMOVING ON

As Neil awkwardly hits on Baby, everybody encourages them having a relationship, despite her CLEARLY not wanting any of this. She instead watches Johnny skillfully mambo with another girl on center floor. After being roped into a magic act by Neil, and given a chicken by Stan (Wayne Knight, which I’m a fan of), she leaves, annoyed and irritated.

On her way back, she sees Johnny’s cousin, Billy (Neal Jones) struggling with a few GIGANTIC watermelons. She offers to help him, and he brings her to a secret house party, where some dancing’s happening. Some...dirty dancing.

Interesting side note here: racial integration! In 1963, remember, so that’s interesting. I mean, if anybody’s a fan of that, it’s gonna be me. At the party, Johnny arrives with Penny Johnson (Cynthia Rhodes), his dance partner from the mambo floor. Johnny sees her there, and questions her presence, to which she makes an adorably awkward comment. And then...they do a dance of their own.

The next day, Lisa makes a love connection with one of the waiters, and asks Baby to cover for her. Baby also speaks to Penny, who doesn’t come from the best background. That night, Penny’s missing, and Neil gives Cornell students just the WORST goddamn name as he very awkwardly hits on Baby. He takes her to the kitchen, and that’s where Baby sees Penny.

Yeah, Penny’s not OK. Baby goes to Billy and Johnny, who go to get her. Turns out Penny’s pregnant, but Johnny’s not the father. They’re obviously quite close, although they aren’t romantically tangled. Baby, coming from a place of much higher privilege, doesn’t quite understand how difficult this is. Penny berates her for this, and it’s revealed that the father is Robbie Gould (Max Cantor), one of the waiters, who’s also the guy that’s been hanging around Lisa.

Baby confronts him the following day, where he states that “Some people count, some people don’t.” He also offers her a copy of The Fountainhead, a well-known book for complete and utter douchenozzles. She warns him to stay away from her sister, then goes to ask her father for money for the abortion. Which, by the way, was very illegal in 1963. She gets the money from her dad, who gives it without asking many questions.

However, there’s an issue; Johnny and Penny have to dance on the only night she can get the abortion. And there’s nobody to replace her...except maybe Baby? Johnny’s entirely against it, they end up convincing him, for Penny’s sake. And now, we get a hallmark of ‘80s cinema: the training montage.

This is a pretty good time to note three things. One, Jennifer Grey is the daughter of Joel Grey, one of the GREATEST actor/dancers ever to grace Hollywood and Broadway. Dude was one of the main characters in Cabaret, for which he won an Oscar, and originated the role of the Wizard of Oz in Wicked. So, yeah, she’s got dancing blood. Secondly, Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey apparently HATED each other. Yeah, kind of a bummer. But their chemistry was SO GODDAMN POWERFUL, that they were able to push through their feelings and do this as well as they are. And third...THIS SOUNDTRACK BOPS. 

I get it. I GET IT.

Something else I get, too. The chemistry between Grey and Swayze really does sizzle, GODDAMN. Over the course of the montage, they clearly get closer emotionally...and physically. And yeah, it’s definitely there. Although, given the fact that they’re from different class backgrounds, it’s probably gonna be one of those stories. Well, OK. Let’s do it.

After a little too much time practicing, the two take a break. And yet, while on a nature excursion, they continue their training in different environments. Most iconically, they practice lifts in the lake.

Yeah...yeah, I get it.

The day approaches, and Baby and Penny have a bit of a heart-to-heart. Penny asks Lisa to cover for her (and I’m betting that she won’t, LIKE AN ASSHOLE), and she heads to the dance gig. It mostly goes OK, but the lift is aborted at the last second. However, the performance is still received well. They leave JUST before an elderly couple from the resort sees them. 

Johnny gives her a pep-talk, telling her that she did well, and the music on the car radio hints at their growing mutual attraction. But once they get there, tragedy’s struck. Turns out that the abortion doctor was a dangerous quack, and Penny’s now dangerous injured, in pain and possibly dying. Panicking, Baby does THE RIGHT THING, I can’t stress that enough, THE RIGHT GODDAMN THING, and gets her doctor father.

Understandably upset (and yeah, it is understandable, all things considered), Dr. Houseman forbids Baby from seeing Johnny or any of the others ever again. This situation...sucks. Damn. And Baby agrees, as she sneaks off to see Johnny anyway. She apologizes to Johnny for how her father treated her, but Johnny blames his own social status for it, rather than her father.

Their conversation becomes very real, and eventually turns into Baby declaring her love for Johnny. As a song comes on the radio, she asks him to dance with her. Giving in to his own feelings, he agrees. And together they engage in some...Dirty Dancing.

As the two dirty dance horizontally, the night turns to day. That morning, things are definitely awkward between Baby and her father, who almost takes his family away that night. But, his wife and Lisa convince him to stay. He even comes back to visit Penny, checking in to make sure she’s alright, which Baby finds out once she does the same.

Things are also a little awkward between Baby and Johnny, interestingly. Wonder how last night ended. Well, Penny figures it out, and warns Johnny about the risks off getting involved with the upper class. Which, remember, is how she ended up this way. The two have a tense-but-intimate exchange. Which just preludes this IMMEDIATELY happening.

Yeah, that’s not a surprise. Well, more heart-to-heart proceeds, and they continue to learn about each other’s lives. That night, Lisa tells Baby that she wants to go all the way with Robbie. Despite Baby’s warnings, Lisa simply tells her off, and is generally, I’ll be honest, a bitch. The next morning, though, Baby and Johnny have another dance session. And it’s THAT session. You know the one.

Neil interrupts, and proceeds to give a bad name to Cornellians everywhere (I’m not like that putz, I SWEAR), and pisses off Johnny in the process. She asks why he didn’t stand up for himself, and then immediately hides Johnny from her father, who’s walking with Robbie and Lisa. Rightfully calling her a hypocrite, he storms off.

And then they immediately resolve it. Which, GODDAMN, do I appreciate. Robbie strolls by, makes a typical crass comment about Baby, and then Johnny BEATS THE EVER-LOVING SHIT OUT OF HIM

OH FUCK YES. And if that wasn’t enough catharsis, Lisa catches Robbie with one of the high society wives from earlier, as they sleep together in a cabin. OH. YES. THAT’S SOME GOOOOOOOOOOOOD SHIT.

Baby and Johnny, in the actual good and fully-developed relationship of this movie, spend the night together. And are seen the next morning by the high society wife, who had the hots for Johnny.

The wife, Vivian (Miranda Garrison), implicates Johnny in stealing a wallet. Johnny’s about to be fired, and then BABY ADMITS THAT THEY WERE TOGETHER IN FRONT OF HER FATHER HOLY FUCK

She did it. She actually did it. Goddamn. And then, AND THEN, she TELLS HER FATHER OFF AND CALLS HER OUT FOR HIS ELITISM HOLY FUCKING SHIT I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS MOVIE. And then, Jerry Orbach fuckin’ starts tearing up, and I AM SHOOK MOTHERFUCKER

And yet, even though the wallets were actually stolen by an elderly couple that Baby actually implicated, Johnny gets fired anyway. GODDAMN. After Baby completely loses heart, Johnny confronts her father, and learns that he believes that he was the one who got Penny pregnant. Johnny semi-tells him off, then walks away.

At his car, Johnny and Baby say goodbye with a kiss, and Johnny heads off forever. I mean, probably not, there’s a good 16 minutes left, and we haven’t gotten to the most iconic scene of the film yet. But anyway, Baby mourns her lost relationship, and her sister actually bonds with her over this whole thing. Hot damn.

I want to punch Neil in the goddamn face. Mostly just because he’s on screen, but also because he LITERALLY ruins the goddamn anthem of Cornell University, by setting the anthem for the resort against its melody. Goddamn you, Neil. GODDAMN YOU. Also, fuck Robbie, because he LITERALLY OUTS HIMSELF to Dr. Houseman as Penny’s former deadbeat partner. As the anthem continues (to my rage), who shows up but Johnny, who comes to stick up for Baby and all she’s done.

He brings her up on stage, and interrupts the anthem (THANK YOU CHRIST) to perform the last dance of the season, as he always does. Despite Dr. Houseman’s would-be objections (prevented by his wife, who has moved up on my list of favorite characters), the two are left alone on stage. And that...is when the song plays. YOU KNOW THE GODDAMN SONG

Y’know, it’s funny, because this song is definitely an ‘80s song, making this whole sequence pretty goddamn anachronistic, but WHO CARES!? It’s one of the most iconic sequences in film history, especially of the era, and I love the hell out of it. The crowd cheers, the rest of the kids join in, the lift happens, father and daughter make up, everybody dances, I dance with my girlfriend, I LOVE IT! They kiss, they dance and the film fades to black.

Dirty Dancing! See you in the Review! Oh, I’m changing the name of that section, by the way. Alongside a few more things. You’ll see.

axelle judges non bl shows > Happy Birthday

/!\ SPOILERS AHEAD

shitty summary: Tonmai, a kid who has been treated unfairly by his parents since his birth, finally gets a gift for the first time of his life on his seventeen birthday: the old room his deceased sister used to occupy. But with that gift comes an enormous responsability, the one of taking care of his sister’s ghost.

where to watch: youtube

grade: 9/10

pros:

- the characters. and I know in every review I’m like “oh the characters are so good omg” but here I really, really, REALLY mean it. if you’ve been reading my reviews you know that characters are for me the most important thing about a show, and this show delivered soooooooooo well!!! while I watched the show I really didn’t focus on Tonmai a lot but honestly once I finished it I realized I adore him and I identify with him quite a lot. he is such a perfect protagonist because he doesn’t have a protruding personality that makes him stick out too much but is still so so so lovable and this story isn’t the one that would benefit from having a super out there extravagant main character. Noina was bae, I literally fell in love with her and I think she was an amazing supporting role, Namtan was... absolutely incredible as a character that is the embodiment of cute and quirky but also very dark and depressed and I loved her as well. Tee was fucking everything, I adored his role, Mr. Tai is the role mvp of this whole series, Lookgolf was incredible in her restraint and Pana was a very interesting supportive role. I honestly could write a whole essay on each of these characters because they were so gooooooooooood, and I’m forgetting the two strong women characters that we get in this show consisting of Tonmai’s mother and another mother that I won’t go into details about (as I’m trying to keep this review spoiler-free for once)

- the character development. WOW. the biggest part of me loving characters the most in a series is because it has the time to do what movies can’t often do which is mature their characters like fine wine. and gosh, this series does ittttttt!!! it is incredible to see every character grow and evolve throughout the series, little by little, and as someone for whom it’s the favorite part I was thriving!

- the acting was through the roof!!! there was not one bad performance, for me Mild (Namtan) and Push (Tee) are the ones who knocked it out of the park the most but literally everyone had their moment to shine and it was amazing to see Pluem whom i’m starting to really be fond of finally have a role where he can show his potential! the cast is truly incredible (I mean, Mild, Pluem, Golf, Jan, Push and Plustor??? wow) and I feel like every actor was pushed to their acting limit! this is truly the best acted gmmtv series for me right alongside the gifted, the acting is top tier and next level!

- the relationships were all also so great and diverse: Tonmai and Noina were the cutest I adored them, the relationship between Namtan and Tonmai was so genuine and beautiful, the one between Tee and Namtan so complex and tragic, the one between Namtan and Mr. Tai honestly sob inducing and iconic, the one between Tee and Lookgolf simply beautiful and full of devotion (I wish they would’ve ended up together lol), the one between Tonmai’s parents as well, between Tee and Pana... anyways I could continue all day lol. the relationships are incredible!

- the story. I hesitated for about a year before watching this series for two reasons: I knew it was going to be exhausting emotionally and it was a ghost story and I had just finished watching he’s coming to me right when I started hearing about it. but the story is truly amazing. it is much more than a ghost story, but it’s a story about healing, about forgiveness, and it’s written in such a beautiful sensitive way that you cannot not get attached to it. every character is flawed yet you end up loving them all because this show reflects real life and our complexity as human beings

- the pace and structure was amazing, like the first episode left me wanting to know more but also not really that enticed to keep watching but from the second episode to the 8th or 9th one this show has plot twist after plot twist and you cannot stop watching! also because it has only one central storyline that every character is tied into, it feels very organized and it takes its time to deliver the story from everyone’s perspective. really the writing is some chef’s kiss shit!

cons:

- it is a very draining show, and because of that by the end of it so episodes 12 and 13, it’s kinda hard to feel much and cry again because every episode up until that has been so full of emotion. so what should be the most important moments get kinda washed out because there has already been so much moments that have felt just as emotionally charged and groundbreaking.

- there a few writing choices that can be criticized, like the fact that Pana never got to talk to Namtan, or that Tee’s suicide attempt is never addressed after Tonmai saving him, or even that Namtan’s mom thought her now 34 years old daughter still lived with her dad... there are a few things that are not super super tight in the writing but honestly it’s just me nitpicking and the rest is absolutely amazing. (also yes this is actually gonna be a spoilery review, whoops!)

would I rewatch it: probably not for a while. it’s a very heartwrenching story that also relies on twists and turns so watching it in a few months would lessen the impact it had on me. but I see myself rewatching it in 10 years to reminisce of the great thai series I used to watch at this time of my life :)

This series is definitely one of the best thai series I’ve seen, and it’s kinda sad how underrated it is. I would definitely not recommend this one to everyone as it is very sad and deals with serious topics like depression and suicide but if you think you can handle it I would really suggest you watch this series because it is handled in a beautiful realistic way and I’m incredibly proud of the whole cast and crew that worked on it :)

[looselucy]

I love how u are unbiased and honest towards Harry’s work and like not just like “oh my god I love it I love him ahhh” so can u pls do a honest review of each song (whether u have good or bad things to say)? I’d love to know ur opinion on each one.

Ahhhh I love this, thank you! And sorry for the late reply, I wanted to do this properly so I’ve listened again and THE REVIEWS ARE IN LET’S DO THIS!

FINE LINE ACCORDING TO LUCY

Golden – This is the good shit. Like.... this is some gooooooooooood shit. It’s such a great opener to an album too. Harry’s good at the ordering of his album tracks and putting them in the right place, I think. This, for me, is exactly what his sound should be. I feel like he really got it right on this track. More of this in the future please.

Watermelon Sugar – I don’t really have any strong feelings towards this song. It’s nice enough, innit? It’s a nice sound. Would have also fit in very nicely on his first album.

Adore You – It’s just not for me, this one. It feels very generic pop among some really interesting songs. So just... meh.

Lights Up – Another that just isn’t for me. I get why people like it, it’s definitely got a lot about it and it’s an interesting one, but I just can’t warm to it.

Cherry – I like this one. I think it’s going to continue to grow on me. At first I was only really sold on the chorus and not the verses, but the more I’ve listened the more I like all of it. It’s very Bon Iver, which isn’t a bad thing because they’re amazing, but I just think there are some really minor tweaks that could have been made that would have made it sound much more his own, rather than people listening and immediately thinking of someone else. I love the ending and the voicemail, I love the sound of it, it works so well. When we first learnt he was using the voicemail I was like hmm dunno how that’s gunna sound, but with the effects and everything I think it really rounded it off in the perfect way.

Falling – Ballads like this are not my jam. This is a big miss for me unfortunately. Don’t really have any more to say on this one.

To Be So Lonely – This sorta sounds like a Jack Johnson song. Like... those kinda vibes. The annoying thing is, I never really liked Jack Johnson iewfuhieurfhiueriug but there’s something about it. I quite like it lyrically and I love the weird tempos and lifts and drops and I’m pretty confident that one is going to grow on me and become one I really enjoy.

She – Sexy daydream song. Not at all what I expected, but I think I like it. I think I need to give it a bit more time.

Sunflower – She’s cute. She feels a bit ELO to me in places. And I love the weird ending. Also, TFA.

Canyon Moon – I don’t know if this makes sense siufhiurhguieh but this whole album is very plinky plonky. I don’t like this one, because it’s just a bit TOO plinky plonky for my liking haha. I tend to really warm to songs that have some grit and darkness to them, and this one is so light and sweet. It’s just not for me. Also, who are these children he keeps dropping off and picking up from school and shit? What the fuck is going on in here on this day?

TPWK – *sigh* I just... I don’t have any nice words. NO, y’know what, I love that he feels accepted and he’s accepting and he wants love and peace and all that shit, so I’m proud of that healthy journey he’s been on. But fucking hell, does he have to inflict this song on us because of that?

Fine Line – Powerful. Wonderful. Moving. Subtle and yet strong. Again, this is the perfect way to end this album. It’s so uplifting in it’s sorrow. It’s a fucking joy to listen to. Something to experience and to let it overwhelm you, which it does with ease. It’s a wonderful piece of music.

I think to wrap up... it’s very hit and miss with me. I like it, it’s definitely interesting to listen to. I think we’re still gunna be waiting a while for an album that really feels like him, where we don’t listen and say “this sounds like Bon Iver” but instead we know it sounds like him. Where other artists release something, and Harry’s style is so poised and precise that we can say “they sound like Harry Styles”

It’s very clear he’s still exploring, but isn’t it great that we get to hear his experiments?

Kingsman 2 thoughts (obviously huge spoilers)

- Gay gay gay gay gay gay gay

- OMG THE BACKSTAGE PASS. For just a moment my soul LEFT MY BODY because I truly did think Elton John was going to look Colin Firth in the face and say, “If you get me out of here, we can do it in the asshole!” And then what he said was BASICALLY that, I mean it was a metaphor and all, but still. I nearly died.

- Scrolling through the Kingsman tag I will say: yes, I too was basically the ONLY PERSON WHO LAUGHED AT THAT PART IN THE THEATER. Sounds like we have a new queer-detection method.

- Merlin

- the parallels the parallels oh my god the parallels I could go on and on BUT I WON’T

- okay just one parallel though real quick: the first time Harry’s even brought up in the movie he is first VISUALLY TRANSPOSED OVER TILDE and then Tilde is shown to be trying to do something with/for Eggsy that Eggsy doesn’t need her to do because Harry already did it, and did it perfectly. So yeah there is no heterosexual explanation for this. Harry’s an ex-something of Eggsy’s, and you can take that to the goddamn bank.

- Merlin tho

- the whole jungle/50s America mashup (without a syllable about, y’know, anything having to do with ACTUAL CAMBODIA) was  R E P U L S I V E

- Jamal is SO GAY OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOD. WHAT THE FUCK. WHAT THE ACTUAL LITERAL FUCK. That was his boyfriend! WE ALL GOT THAT, RIGHT? WHITEBOY METHHEAD WAS JAMAL’S BOYFRIEND. Or at the very least Jamal was in love with him, though I’ll be honest and say I can’t tell if it was reciprocated. But he sits there with his forehead pressed to the guy’s temple! HE LITERALLY PROCLAIMS HIS LOVE! Why was that cutaway to them so long? Instead of just being a 5-second cutaway to show he lived? YOU KNOW WHY. IT’S BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO KISS. THAT’S WHY IT FEELS SO WEIRD WHEN THEY DON’T.

- Merlin

- before this my desires for Eggsy’s love interest went like this: 1. Harry Hart 2. Channing Tatum/Tequila 3. No love interest 4. Tilde 5. There was no one else I would have been okay with AT ALL

point is though I’m actually okay with Eggsy/Tilde - I liked her for the most part in the first movie, and she’s in my top 5 - so I’m relatively okay with this. MUCH better than what could have happened. Still fucked up about the ending, though.

- Merlin

- Cambodia is not “the middle of nowhere” and fuck you too, lady

- I’m gonna cry whenever I hear that stupid fucking song now thanks a lot

Things that were set up in the movie that never actually happened, so here I am complaining about them/calling them for the sequel:

1. Harry’s entire arc was leading up to him retiring? He was SO much happier when he was pursuing his other dream, he literally tells Eggsy that Kingsman ruined his fucking life and left him empty and alone and regretting it, and then he just--- what? Sticks around for no reason? No. Fuck that. The end of this movie was SUPPOSED to be Harry retiring, it was obvious, and it felt really weird and incomplete when that didn’t happen.

2. Roxy ain’t dead. It didn’t show her die and there was barely any reaction. I was actually expecting her to swoop in and save Harry and Eggsy at the end, when they were both losing their individual battles. SUPER surprised that she didn’t

3. The sequel is going to be an almost-spinoff featuring Roxy and Tequila arguing about what constitutes good manners as per their respective countries of origin.

[captainswan-asyouwish]

Okay, so I must write something about the way my heart received the few songs I listened from the musical episode. I am still trying to avoid as much spoilers as I can from this episode and resist as much as possible for once, but the voice in my head (or the song in my heart ^^) told me to stop fighting a little bit and prepare myself for Sunday. So I listened and watched Colin’s song, the Snowing duet, then I was weak and I couldn’t resist to listen the CS duet with the others, and of course, as a huge Emma and Jen’s stan,  Jen’s solo. Under the cut for people who are stronger than me and will wait until Sunday night. ;-)

The Snowing duet is priceless, adorable, cute, funny (OMG Josh and ♪ I sound gooooooooooood ♫ ). Colin’s performance is perfect (we all know he is a great musician and singer and he proves one more time how talented he is, even by adding Killian’s accent in his voice while he sings and it’s not easy so wow, amazing work Colin –without mentionning his broken foot while he was filming-). The CS duet with everyone is huge, glorious,  I feel so much joy in my heart when I listen this song that it gives me tears of joy and happiness and I don’t care if it’s stupid to feel so much feelings for fictional characters, I am happy for them beyond words (and here I’m gonna cry again). And I don’t care if the end obviously screams « Black Fairyyyyyy ! ». They will get through this. The happy beginnings will last for ever.

But the song that gets the highlight for me, the one that made me a complete mess when I listened it, and still makes me a complete mess everytime I listen it is Emma’s theme. I don’t know how to explain but this song is so powerful, strong, emotional that I can’t handle the feelings in my heart and the tears came out without realizing it at the end of the first listening, with Jen’s last words and the violins and orchestra, the strengh and love that comes out from the bottom of Emma’s heart. And I feel the same every single time I listen it (I went outside early this morning and I listened it while I was walking and thank you rain because people in the street couldn’t see the drops on my cheeks were not rain but actual tears). I am amazed by Jen’s talent and the way she can deliver so many emotions in 2:28 minutes. She is brilliant. She proves it one more time. She is able to do everything. To play everything. I am breathless the entire song, tied up to her words and voice, and then the tears come, real sobs, I can’t stop. I « feel » Emma in the song so strongly. I feel the pain in the sweetness of the beginning, my hearts breaks, and then the strengh, the determination and love she has inside of her, the heroine she is and will always be, the Savior. It surrounds her, in her heart, in her body, in her soul. And it fulfills my heart. God, the performance is fantastic and I don’t regret I listened the song before the episode because I still have a lot to handle before Sunday and discovering the performance on screen. It would have been too many things to handle at once. I want to thank the composers and writers of the songs, for having given to Jen and Emma this wonderful gift. Both deserved this. And by listening it, I feel so proud of my favorite character, inspiration, hero. She has come so far. Maybe I feel close to this and I feel those emotions very strongly because I see a kind of reflection of me in Emma and the life of loneliss and despair she had, I don’t know but yes, I am proud of her. She deserves her happiness more than anyone else. She deserves what she gets, the love of her son, the love of her parents, and the love of a wonderful man who sees her as the most precious treasure ever. I just wish the song was longer than those very short 2:28 minutes. It’s not enough ! More more more Emma and Jen songs please.

And I also want to have a thought for Adriane… She loved Emma so much. I hope wherever she is she still can see what she has become, how far she’s come, how she embraced her family and her true love, and how happy she is with Killian by her side. I wish she could be with us on Sunday night to express her joy and to cry with us. She would be so proud of Emma. In her own way, she will be with us on Sunday night, she will watch over the big day and she will feel as emotional as us…

Finally, I have to say until now, my top level musical episode of a TV show is Buffy’s Once More With Feeling. So I have huge expectations for the Once one. And from what I listened, it may be equal in my heart as the Buffy one. And it means a lot. Congrats for this musical Once cast and crew. You got me. ♥

soul satisfying view || ephram, anaxis

.... an interlude during bluebird, wherein ephram cages anaxis once more.

accidental bird: one that has strayed far enough from its home territory that its presence is notably unusual

You’ve been dutifully using the birding notebook that Cassie gave you, noting down each bird you see without prejudice or favouritism. Each one deserves a place, after all, and in Soapberry Springs there’s a number of them that require a little research with a professor up at the university to identify properly. 

And lately you’ve started jotting down things about yourself, too, between sparrows and seagulls. You aren’t sure why you began this habit, but perhaps the first entry -- scribbled under a detailed description of an owl with heterochromia reading simply but which side is which -- sheds some light on it.

Stupidly, when you left Kentucky there was a minuscule part of you that hoped Anaxis would linger behind, that the demon was bound to the holler. It didn’t take long for you to realize how wrong you were; it took precisely till the hellmouth under the town opened up and your demon clawed its way to the fore and you spent the next month in constant, silent agony as it used your body for all manner of atrocities that still wake you up at night.

The woman you thought of as a sister carved your eyes out with her sharp knife and she took some of your trust and self-worth with them.

Your best friend went along with flights of carnage and played house with Anaxis, happily, gleefully. She only balked when the demon spoke of its obscene plans for the baby girl that Iann owed it. Not when it merrily contemplated having you gang raped just like back in prison, hey-ho.

It was easy after that to accept that you just weren’t ever going to be worth that much to anybody. Unusual enough to attract attention, with Anaxis dressing you up and wielding your body as both a weapon and a punching bag; accidental enough to not really matter at all, when it came down to it. The cocaine helped you forget that for a while and the cage matches did too. Meeting and allowing yourself to love Ruby and let her love you helped.

Freddie was the one who understood, for the first time out of anyone, that Anaxis had no interest in smiting the town and torturing its residents. Anaxis’ sole concern was you. 

But so was Freddie’s.

(no, that’s not exactly true; iann caught on to the demon’s purpose too, but iann doesn’t love you. his hatred of the demon eclipses his indifference about you and that’s all, folks.)

Freddie melted away your scar tissue of i don’t deserve any better and you found, to your surprise and gratefulness, that he’d replaced that self-recrimination with his own its entire goal is to hurt you, love, and i won’t let that happen anymore.

Since then you’ve stopped being surprised. You’ll never stop being grateful.

bird plow: when a group of resting birds is chased into flight, becoming increasingly exhausted with each interrupted attempt to recover.

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING, EPHRAM? THIS WON’T WORK! EVEN IF THAT USED-UP WHORE FAIRY HEALS YOU I’M GONNA USE THAT TIME TO STRANGLE HIM AS I FUCK HIM. IT’S A CLASSIC, YOU’LL LOVE HOW IT FEELS IT’LL FEEL SSOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD WATCHING THOSE COCKSUCKING LIPS TURN BLUE WHEN I CHOKE HIM OUT

When Anaxis works your vocal cords, it can make human sounds, more dulcet than your own whiskey-burned voice. Inside your head is a different story. There, it speaks in a constant roar, a hellish tinny crash reverberating off the back of your skull.

You’re not listening to it. You’ve lost the white place that you’d burrowed for yourself long ago, where you could be sealed up and safe and alone, tuned out to the demon. To everything, really. You can’t find your white place anymore, but that’s all right and maybe you needed to move on from that desperate childhood haven, anyhow. Maybe you need to catch the ropes of silver fairy dust that are beginning to swirl into your blood and bones and the dying rotted meat of you, reviving you, reconstructing you as perhaps you were meant to be before poverty and violence and the world had their way with you.

OH, YOU’RE GOING TO REGRET THIS, BABY, YOU’RE GOING TO GET PULLED STRAIGHT DOWN TO H-E-DOUBLE-HOCKEY-STICKS FOR THIS ONE, YOU’LL WISH FOR ME BACK ONCE THE LOWER DEMONS MAKE FILTH OF YOU, THEY’LL MAKE YOU FORGET YOU WERE EVER ANYTHING BUT AN OBJECT OF SUFFERING, OH, EPHRAM, IT’S GONNA BE SO FUN! BYE-BYE, FREDDIE YOU PATHETIC CUNT, BYE BYE!

It’s not as if you can say, when it happens, that you’d planned on forcing a joining of two magics that were never meant to work together; you certainly never considered that the demon’s influence would make your witch green permeable to your fairy’s silver. It’s an act of desperation but it’s the good kind, the kind that keeps you alive for one more day. You know the taste of that like mother’s milk, like blood and laughter in your mouth, like Freddie’s silver dust reaching your diseased, slumped brain and galvanizing you to action. 

Skin slaps against skin and both of you cry out from the alignment of the two branded symbols, your hip and his hand, crackling from the contact. That brightness sounds through your entire being like the trumpets of the angels, holy holy holy, beyond comprehension, undeniable. Anaxis is silent. You know that the demon is there inside you where it’s always been, wedged behind your liver maybe, creeping up to try and reclaim the lost territory of your frontal lobe. But it is silent right now and you’re getting stronger by the minute from the direct contact sealing you against your fairy, your beloved Freddie, your salvation. 

You would say it’s almost more than you can take but no, that’s not right. As Anaxis retreats under the relentless force of your twinned magic, you think that you could take this for the rest of your fucking life.

zootie: a bird that although local, is unusual to find; a “good” bird

Since the moment you met, Freddie has been tinkering with you. Not making improvements, exactly; he would never characterize it that way and anyhow it’s inaccurate. More like he’s been spot-cleaning dirt and grime to liberate aspects of yourself, the portrait of you, that had long since fallen into disrepair from abuse and neglect. He treats you as though you’re a treasured find, something shiny and precious that his acquisitive magpie heart wants to tuck into his nest to admire as his own. You soak it up like cake in warm syrup and it sweetens your flesh, your spirit, your ability to love. You and Ruby were raised up in the teaching that even the best love still meant pain; Freddie tenderly excises that from your shared vocabulary.

look at you, those beloved lips murmur when you shut the door of the demon’s prison and join your darling in a whole skin again, remade as you always should have been. His quiet voice is throaty, his slate-blue eyes alight. my god, love.

He looks at you, and you know that you’re all he sees.

GETTING BACK TOGETHER | Johnny

ALRIGHT! SOMEONE REQUESTED ME TO DO A JOHNNY VERSION OF THIS ONE. HERE YOU GO. :)

Johnny loves you to bits

even if that meant dissing your sense of fashion lol Johnny’s Fashion Evaluation

“oh my god, you’re gonna wear that to your friend’s party????”

“why? what’s wrong with my outfit?”

Johnny stares at your attractive figure that’s obvious because of the tight fitting of your outfit

“you look like one of those rice-cakes sold in shops”

“it’s such a painful and pitiful sight. 0/10”

“change it”

“I hate it”

“BUT YOU’RE NOT THE ONE WHO’S GONNA ATTEND THE PARTY!”

“But I’m your boyfriend and I’m evaluating your outfit right now. Now go change before I rip that dress off of you.” :>>>>>>>> Johnny,you naughty li’l rascal

but really, you look good in it

he’s just worried that some random guy might start to flirt with you at the party

so he would rather let you look like a potato than this bombshell chic

he’s overprotective of you

he always wants you to be safe that it would get to a point where he wouldn’t leave until he has seen with his own eyes that you have entered through the front door of your house

and no, that doesn’t only apply when he’s with you physically

it applies E V E R Y T I M E

even if he’s away, he’ll Facetime you right after your work/school

because he wants to make sure that you get home safely

you are his baby and he’s yours too

sometimes, the fact that you’re his baby gets a little bit overboard

“come home straight away”

“do not talk to strangers”

“even if it is your ex-boyfriend or your bias from another kpop boy group, do not talk to them”

“why not?”

“because I said so”

“anyway, please eat the food that I brought you today”

“I want you to be healthy”

“Oh you mean the food that TAEYONG cooked this morning?”

“shut up”

HE SAYS I LOVE YOU EVERY 10 MINUTES AND THE MEMBERS TEASE HIM ABOUT THIS BUT HE DOESN’T CARE CUZ HE WUVS U

THE OTHER MEMBERS THINK LIKE: “HOW CAN SHE EVEN STAND HIM?!”

HE’S CLINGY AF

“SHE’S NOT REPLYING! I’M GONNA CALL 000 NOW!” - Johnny

“oh my goodness! you just texted her 5 minutes ago!” *rolls his eyes like bitch why are u so clingy af?* - Jaehyun

And you kind of grew tired of it already

you felt like you’re being suffocated in your relationship with him

you love him but sometimes, you felt that he only loves himself because he always wants you to do what he says

he’s more like a dad/mom/older brother to you than a boyfriend

one time Johnny saw you bidding goodbye to one of your group study mates and the guy was pretty good-looking too but not as good-looking as Johnny

the guy suddenly hugged you

this infuriated Johnny

you saw Johnny’s face as if he’s about to rip the guy’s head off but good thing that the guy already left before he could do that

S I L E N T  C A R   R I D E    B A C K H O M E

OH GIRL HE’LL WRECK YOU ONCE YOU GUYS GET HOME YOU’RE IN BIG TROUBLE

“Did you have fun today?“

“I don’t know. I think I should be asking you that question.”

his face is just… oh god, I hope you get out of his car alive

“Did you have fun with him today?”

“Johnny, he was just my friend from our group study. Calm your shit!”

“Yeah sure! He even hugged you. Sure, he’s just a friend. Just a friend. Fuck no!”

“Johnny, you are my boyfriend!”

“Really? I’m your boyfriend? Then what the hell was that a while ago?”

bruuuuuhhhh….

“Istg, that was nothing!”

“Stop lying to me (y/n)!”

as much as you hate crying, you still cried because he thinks that you’re lying to him even though you’re not

you finally had enough so you face him

“YOU KNOW WHAT?! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF YOU BEING CLINGY AND OVERPROTECTIVE!”

“YOU ALWAYS WANTED ME TO DO WHATEVER YOU SAY!”

“YOU’RE TOO CONTROLLING! I HATE YOU! I HATE THIS RELATIONSHIP!”

“I’M BREAKING UP WITH YOU!”

Johnny was stunned he expected that you guys would just argue but never thought that one of you would decide to break-up

He stepped on the brakes and the car halted to a stop

“Y-You’re joking, right? You can’t break up with me! You promised to love me as long as we live!”

“Baby… please don’t do this”

“I’m sorry if I have been too controlling”

“Just please don’t break up with me!”

you get out of his car while crying and just decided to walk home

on the other hand, Johnny just cried inside his car

he was too hurt to run after you

1 week… 2 weeks… 1 month… 2 months… 3 months… 4 months have passed and both of you still can’t forget what happened

both of you still yearn for each other especially Johnny

he has tried so many times to reach out to you but he just can’t seem to do it because he’s too afraid that he might discover that it’s too late

sometimes, you regret loving someone like Seo Youngho (Johnny)

but then again your life would be colourless and lifeless without him in it

so you go back to loving him again

and it was the best thing that you’ve experienced in your entire life

YOU HEARD A KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR AT 12:30 AM

LIKE WHO TF WOULD COME TO YOUR HOUSE AT 12 FUCKING THIRTY A.M.?

You open the door and see Johnny outside

as soon as you walk towards him, he doesn’t mind bending to your height level and just wraps you in a tight hug

you can tell from his hug that he terribly misses you

it’s so tight that you can’t even breathe

“johnny, let me go i can’t breathe you’re hugging me way too tight”

“sorry” hehehe

he lets you go and goes down on his knees

NOPE HE’S NOT GONNA PROPOSE TO YOU

“i’m sorry for being a bad boyfriend”

“i’m sorry for being too controlling… for being overprotective… for going overboard with things”

“i love you and I truly do that’s why i’m doing my best to protect you and give everything that i think is good for you”

“i didn’t mean to come off as a controlling boyfriend”

“i’m so sorry”

he looks at you with a hurt expression on his face as if he’s telling you that those 4 months have been a torture and it would be great if you guys get back together with each other

it’s the only thing he wants right now at 12:30 a.m.

“Stand up you doofus” and so he did

“First of all, I want you to trust me with my actions. Second, let me wear what I want.”

“But-!”

“LET ME WEAR WHAT I WANT OR ELSE YOU’LL NEVER SEE THIS RICE-CAKE FIGURE AGAIN IN THE BEDROOM.” Oh my Lord girl, you didn’t just say that

He blushes, “Deal.”

You tiptoed and locked lips with him

like his lips just melted on top of yours and it felt soooooOOOoooooOOOOOO goOOOOOOoooood and great

you’re never gonna let him go again

Johnny Seo is yours and you are his… always and forever.

Watched Singin’ in the Rain for the first time in like ten years, and here are my thoughts and things I loved:

-the juxtaposition of Don’s version of his backstory with what really happened -“Call me a cab!” “Aright. You’re a cab.” -the whole first interaction between Kathy and Don -Kathy Selden: sassy AF -“You’d be the prettiest Juliet I’ve ever seen.” And Kathy is having NONE OF YOUR SHIT DONALD -everyone needs a Cosmo Brown in their life -Cosmo Brown: hilarious AF -the whole scene where Don is telling Lina how much he hates her while acting madly in love with her is great -I’d rather kiss a tarantula (BUUURN) -“I’m glad you turned up. We’ve looked inside every cake in town.” Such wit. Very humor. Wow. -the way Kathy’s purple dress just flows in the wind when she’s talking and flirting with Don -DEBBIE IS SO PRETTY AND YOUNG LIKE WOW -MOse suPOses his TOses are rrrrrRRROses but MOses suPOses eeeeeeROOneously -I relate to the frustrated director on a deep spiritual level -“I CANT MAKE LOVE TO A BUSH.” Can anyone? Should anyone? -the music is just so???catchy???? And makes me feel like I need to learn tap dancing???? -it is a truth universally acknowledged that bad ADR makes for a terribly funny movie -turning shitty movies into musicals is always the best idea -“GoooooOOOooood moooorning” ‘nuff said -(also wow they stayed up all the way until 1:30am. Good job guys. Push your limits.) -seriously tho. all the tap dancing. I have a mighty need to learn it now. -also, attempting to tap dance when you have no clue how is not a good idea this has been a PSA -#squadgoals -“wait a minute. I am about to be brilliant.” Me AF -just knowing that Gene Kelly had a high fever when he did the actual singing in the rain is awesome -fun fact: they put milk in the water to make it visible on camera -literally everyone thinks of this song when it rains, even if only for a brief fraction of a second. don’t lie to me. I know you do. -if Gene Kelly can stomp around in puddles, then you can’t tell me I’m too old to do that -“the dueling mammy!” Cosmo I don’t think you tried at all -the set and lighting design for Broadway Melody are on point like damn son this is gorgeous -“Gotta dance!” (Fun story: this scene is on the Great Movie Ride at Hollywood Studios I DisneyWorld, and when my brother was really little and rode it, he would not stop singing it. Literally. Everywhere we went. “Gotta daaaaaaance. Gotta dance. Goooootttttaaaaaa daaaaaance.”) -dat ass tho. Gene Kelly. Niiiiice. -dat leg tho. Random flapper. Niiiiice. -(random realization that Don’s shoes look like Robbie Rotten’s shoes. Or maybe it’s the other way around.) -those coin tosses are on point -that silver flapper dress. I want it. -that is a dangerously long train, woman. But damn if it isn’t cinematically pretty. -I love that he was distracted by the pretty lady and then he remembered that dancing is his true love. Like that’s just awesome. Do what you love. Dance, my friend. Dance. -“Till the stars turn cold.” -“what do they think I am, dumb or something?” -Lina Lamond: petty AF -“You sang as good as Kathy Selden!” -Debbie Reynolds: actual cinnamon roll -also that pink dress is cute AF -“in what key?” “A-flat.” “Aaay flaaat.” -the way they all dance to the curtain rope and start pulling it in sync to the song -“She’s the REAL star of the picture!” Don standing up for Kathy just gives me warm fuzzies. Uhhgh. -this movie was sticking up for equality for women in film before its time. -if I wasn’t sad about Debbie’s passing before, I sure as hell am now. What a star.

Tl;dr go watch “Singin’ in the Rain” if you haven’t seen it already. And if you have, watch it again.
