[ticktockheartstop]

I've been in love with love and the idea of something binding us together, you know that love is strong enough

[transit-fag]

Guys, I found a really fun song, I'd link an mp3 file instead of spotify but tumblr mobile fuckin sucks

"San Francisco" by the Mowgli's!!

Well, I lost my head in San Francisco Waiting for the fog to roll out But I found it in a rain cloud It was smiling down Do you feel the love? I feel the love C'mon, c'mon, let's start it up Let it pour out of your soul

I love hippies...I love quoting this song in stories it has no business being in...the four years from like 2012-2014 where every indie band had upwards of 12 guys who all did cocaine and played the banjo + 1 girl who played the ukulele were really the perfect era for Spotify's Stomp and Holler guys (me).

I woke up with this song stuck in my head and it's such a George song to me

9 People to Get to Know Better (Tag Game)

alright...this year I'm resolving to be more of an active participant in fandom...this year I'm resolving to be more of an active participant in fandom...thank you to @dustykneed for tagging me, I'll try to do my best with this!

3 ships you like:

Outside of the obvious (*cough*persistent star trek brainrot*cough*) I'm gonna say Winterbaron (Bucky Barnes/Zemo), Barmaro (Nick Amaro/Rafael Barba from That Cop Show That is Still Somehow Being Aired), and LinSu (Lin Chen/Mei Changsu from Nirvana in Fire aka 琅琊榜). What do these have in common? Almost nothing lol, but maybe there's an argument to be made about a common "on the surface we seem so different/present ourselves differently, but deep down we understand a part of each other in a way no one else does (whether we like/admit it or not)" dynamic.

First ship ever:

I legitimately do not remember this, but I've kept a journal/diary since I was 7, and once I went to look up the entries around when I first discovered fandom (early teens, 12-14 ish) and would you believe it, there's a page of me yelling very passionately about Spones and Mckirk, which...is just mind-boggling to me because I've always thought my first ship was Stanner (Tony Stark/Bruce Banner). So I'm still claiming Stanner, but...LMAO

Last song you heard:

...to answer this honestly, it was technically a rather...sub-par rendition of Eminem's "Rap God" by my very dear sister during last night's post new year's dinner living room karaoke. The last song that came up on my phone playlist though was apparently "San Francisco" by The Mowgli's.

Favorite childhood book:

"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" (a collection of recorded conversations between Ralph Leighton and the titular Richard Feynman)—yeah you can tell I was a fun kid 😭

Currently reading:

"The Rise of Modern Chinese Thought" (《现代中国思想的兴起》) by Wang Hui which is like...an analysis of the connection between Chinese political culture and classical Chinese philosophy. I think. I'm only like 50 pages in and I'm discovering that I may be too stupid to really understand what's going on. Also, "Like the Argonaut" by trash_heron on Ao3 which is a (still in-progress) Spones epic that's in the middle of going through all of TOS with some really interesting worldbuilding things and integration of other Trek series with the TOS events.

Currently watching:

The Bear, which I'm enjoying a lot even though I'm watching it...incredibly slowly due to constantly getting distracted by other things 😭

Currently consuming:

Leftover dimsum from breakfast/brunch 👍

Currently craving:

Bones McCoy content, always craving more Bones content 💙💙💙

Link: San Francisco 1985 Word Count: 4183 Relationships: Armand/Daniel Molloy Characters: Armand (Vampire Chronicles), Daniel Molloy, Louis de Pointe du Lac Additional Tags: filling in gaps in canon, Post-Queen of the Damned, Queen of the Damned, Vampire Daniel Molloy, Devil's Minion Era (Vampire Chronicles), San Francisco, Interview With The Vampire - Freeform, POV Daniel Molloy, Conversations, Conversations we should have gotten in canon like how did this not come up at all, Vampire Senses Summary: After Akasha is defeated, Daniel, Armand, and Louis take a quick side trip to San Francisco before the Coven leaves for Miami to visit the room where it all began. Daniel goes down memory lane and they all discuss what happened after the interview.

If you want a fic of characters talking and ruminating on the past without anything else happening, boy have I got the fic for you!

I was flipping through QotD and it mentions that Maharet made a trip over to SF with Jesse, and I was like if she has time for that, then so does Daniel! Of course he'd want to show Armand his city and the place where the interview happened. I imagine it was one of the few places they hadn't been together, as I sort of think they probably avoided it before.

This fic also helped me discover the song "San Francisco" by The Mowgli's and it's just such a fun, happy song that feels very Euphoric New Vampire Daniel, so I had it on repeat while editing this.

Basic self ship asks

🎵: What are some song lyrics that make you think of your f/o/your relationship with your f/o?

I'll pick Kaa for this one since I don't have many songs that make me think of Hiss right now!

Outside of Trust In Me, here are some lyrics from various songs that make me think of Kaa and Sundar! These are not in any order.

Hypnotise - System of a Down

She's scared that I will take her away from there Her dreams that her country left with no one there Mesmerize the simple minded Propaganda leaves us blinded I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my girl

Like Gold - Loud Luxury

Don't you know you make me feel like gold? I'm hypnotized and under your control Don't want you to ever let me go 'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel

With every touch, your body feels like home You write a symphony inside my soul I don't want you to ever let me go 'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel

San Francisco - The Mowgli's

I've been in love with love and the idea of Something binding us together, You know that love is strong enough, And I've seen time tell tales of that Systematic drug, yeah that Heart that beats as one, It's collectively, unconciously composed

Slowly, Slowly - The Mowgli's

Slowly, slowly We become the secrets that we keep. Yea, it's only you. It's only me. It's only love and it's only fair That you find your peace. Yea, it's only you. It's only me. It's only love and it's only fair That you find your peace. My head My spirit's end, Could do this whole damn world right in. And I'll turn green Like lover's greed And you'll get high Off of loving me And then you'll finally see. I hope you finally see.. That it's only you. It's only me. It's only love.

powers: the best pyromancy. also she and faraj performed a ritual that makes them functionally immortal—they can’t die unless the other one is killed simultaneously (their injuries give the other minor side effects; cynthia’s is blood dripping from everywhere).

powers: can summon bow/arrows, can do a bunch of animal-related magic, moon powers, assorted godly powers. immortal. can and will kill you with a single shot.
