[deadmothsketches]

Be more chill or else.

Wandered down memory lane and am relistening to this musical again. lol BMC was the first musical I saw with my gf so it holds a special place in my heart.

Anyway back to rant. I might do an animatic for the song Be more chill part 1 and 2 but only snippets of it so i can draw akuma Kara just rip Karla a new one for being a nerd. lol

The Lynx are building something 🙃

[selfiesforalgernon]

Just watched Neon Demon, I think I might be a huge Nicolas Winding Refn fan actually 😅 I liked Drive, liked Only God Forgives more, even saw Pusher and liked that (though that's not as aesthetic as his later stuff) if you enjoy art you should give this a chance lol

[claudead60]

With all the new shadow content coming up, which are you most looking forward to? Any predictions for which will have the "best" shadow characterization? (I'll be interested in seeing the difference between the movie and generations)

hhoooough boy. definitely looking forward to the next episodes of dark beginnings the most. i think the team dark episode will change my brain chemistry forever, and i really enjoyed the style and execution of the first episode (for the most part - some of the 3D animation was a little wonky, but i can forgive her). I’m also excited for sonic x shadow generations and whatever crazy shit it pulls, but in all fuckin honesty i think i’m slightly more excited for the goddamn biolizard lego set LMAO

i am. nervous about sonic 3. there’s a few things that have really hampered my excitement for it and give me that feeling of wariness:

1. i do not trust paramount with handling any aspect of G.U.N. (and Maria’s death by extension). i’m not usually a fan of most portrayals of the military within hollywood blockbuster films. i don’t trust this one either.

2. jim carrey gerald robotnik is not a choice i’m looking forward to and i worry about the idea that he’s still alive (he might not be though, I have Theories)

3. i’m probably not gonna like keanu shadow. i’m sorry gang i know so many people are hyped about this but i just can’t do it. he’s just gonna sound like keanu reeves to me for the whole movie, not shadow the hedgehog

as far as shadow characterization goes, i have more faith that sonic x shadow generations will be able to flesh him out more. but honesty, that’s mostly because i doubt shadow is actually gonna be in movie 3 that much. like we’ll definitely have a few big scenes with him, but sonic x shadow is probably just gonna have more runtime with him and be able to flesh him out more. sonic 3 is a blockbuster film with way more characters to juggle, and i see a dark future where shadow’s role in the movie is actually really limited.

and tbh i think he’ll be… fine in movie 3. this is gonna be a version of shadow fresh outta the tube and probably full of hatred, which is honestly the easiest version of him to get down imo. idk, we’ll see. maybe I’ll be super wrong about all of this and they’ll have to hit me with the mephiles beam that killed sonic

[sonknuxadow]

my reaction to that information

[hollowedmind]

the hollow au " riddle me this" (wip)

anyway, the basis of this is just that weirdy decides to let them have fun and mess with people. So, they get to be/replace the "npcs" that are usually seen in the hollow. So, I thought who better to be the players of this game then the best hollowers themselves @ahyesthesufferingoftvteens @wandermit @valarioncy top @lunarifie @reeve-in-a-suit @gl1tched-g0th Bottom

TADAA very sorry if these are bad tried to do, ya justice. Any I chose y'all a while back since you guys carry this fandom on your back it insane. I am thinking of adding a third team just not sure yet. too be far I'm not the biggest fan on some parts of this but anyways the height differences were completely made up I don't know the accuracy of these to be honest

[runawaymun]

i'm very obsessed with your depiction of Song in and the stars shine the same. you write it with such a different feel for each character, if that makes sense? especially since it's always been to me such a difficult concept to portray well in fic. i've been wondering, what do you think everyone's Singing is like, if you've thought about it? whether just as like the general feel to it to a bystander/listener, or just purely sound qualities, like i seem to remember glorfindel's baritone singing voice as a thing a lot of people would write.

i'm very sorry if this was asked/discussed before however i am...well not *new* but it's been years since i was active around lotr/silm tumblr. i am rapidly getting pulled back in to fan spaces it would seem. anyways. <3

Ahhhh oh wow! What a cool ask this is! Thank you so much. Playing with Song and Music and Themes in my fics is one of my favorite things to do. Songs of Power are just soooo damn cool I can't help myself. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond to this, I've just been trying to compile my thoughts! Buckle up cause this is gonna get kind of long.

Elrond is easiest for me to nail down for obvious reasons. I've dug into his Music the most out of everyone, but it feels different to different people. For a lot of elves it can be very overwhelming because there is just SO much going on in his Theme. A lot of syncopation and dissonance (in the best possible way. Just super fun note combinations). Usually his Music is quite steady and calming. Generally I think of his actual singing voice to sound like Colin O'Malley does in Thomas Bergensen's Sonera. Strong and open-sounding and just....the slight rasp but like it's still so gorgeous and hngggggg. Though, with Rings of Power (or just a younger) Elrond specifically I imagine more like Reeve Carney's voice -- especially as Orpheus in Hadestown. Again you get that bright, open sort of voice but there's a sweetness and a vibrato to Reeve's voice that I just adore for a young Elrond!

Gil-Galad is another character whose music I have thought about a whole bunch (mostly in contrast to Elrond's, due to To Partake), and he has a very even quarter-time beat and just. Idk he sounds and feels so orderly and steady and kind of brassy to me. I don't have headcannons on his singing voice, though.

Celebrimbor also has an even quarter-time beat but his music is more relaxed and there's room in it for play. Like it has a swing beat every once in a while, and in general he just has this very big, open, echoing feeling. Like he is just huge idk. Music that just thunders around your ears in the best possible way. I also don't have a headcannoned sound for his singing voice yet but in general I think it would be pretty low.

Maglor is different for me depending on pre or post Oath, in terms of his actual Theme. Pre Oath there is a lot of interest and complexity, and post Oath that sort of gets drowned out by the overlaying Theme of the Oath (which feels horribly loud, with this plodding sort of beat that gets faster and faster the more Oath-madness is upon the Feanorians). His singing voice is like Joey Batey from The Amazing Devil. The way that Joey is capable of singing with this gorgeous, soulful, sweet voice and then he can turn on a dime to sound like he's about to tear someone to shreds and you're pretty sure that nobody should be able to sing THAT fucking loud without breaking their vocal chords? The RANGE? The way his voice just sends shivers up your spine? Yeah. Maglor.

Galadriel I don't have much on because she is kind of an enigma to me. But I think there would definitely be an aspect of her Theme that would put you on edge. As far as her singing voice go, I actually wrote Convergence I while listening to "Sonera" and yeah the male voice in Sonera I headcannon as Elrond, and the female voice I headcannon as Galadriel for that specific scene. In general though, I tend to hear her voice as sounding like Kate St. Pierre in Hurt by Thomas Bergensen.

Celebrian has a lot of strings and flutes in her theme to me. It's orderly but more like a 3/4 time signature. The kind of thing you want to dance to or listen to while you're taking a long walk. Mostly high notes. Her singing voice sounds like the the female part in Sun and Moon (which I would like to find out who that is but unfortunately I can not seem to find her credited anywhere). Like it's pretty but there's this sort of untamed edge to her voice, just a bit. (Also I am a big fat nerd about Sun and Moon because a) Cel and Elrond are sun and moon coded to me and b) the male voice which is actually the song's composer sounds CLOSE enough to my headcannoned Elrond singing voice that I can sit back and imagine they're singing a duet haha)

Arwen is like a mix between her parents. She's got that 3/4 beat like Cel but there IS a bit of syncopation from Elrond in there, but similar sort of harps/strings vibes. Purple, to me. I do not know how to explain what purple even means or sounds like in this context asdlkgh. But her voice sounds like Eurielle - very much thinking about Luthien's Lament, specifically.

I unfortunately do not have a lot of headcannons for Elladan and Elrohir yet but we'll get there quite shortly with boundless sky.

Luthien has the sort of voice that will just fucking blow your socks off. I know she sang Morgoth to sleep blah blah but girl has power in that voice and the world's most ridiculous range. I am thinking specifically of ghost love score. And yes, her Theme sounds like orchestral metal. Sauron fucking hates it.

Morgoth is jazz. That is all I have to say on that.

That's all of the people I have nailed down as to what they sound like! Thank you SO much for this ask. It was so much fun to respond to!

Through the power of magic, Angeal wakes up as a fan favourite,

Genesis wakes up with a full beard,

And Sephiroth wakes up with smooth flirting skills.

So basically Angeal is Sephiroth. Genesis is Angeal. And Sephiroth is Genesis lmao. Okay. Fun fun.

Angeal: He finds himself endlessly tormented by fans and admirers. Cameras in his face everywhere he looks. Suddenly, he feels more alone than he ever has before. No one actually knows him. And he feels exploited and lonely. Moreover, he feels there's no one he can really trust. They're all using him for their own gain. And meanwhile, his own emotional needs feel severely neglected. They want to know everything there is to know about him, but he knows that if they knew, they'd never accept him. He's different. He barely knows himself. And the feeling is overwhelming. He just wants to run home to Gillian and curl up in her arms. That's the only place he feels safe.

Genesis: FUCK. What the hell is going on? Why the hell is he so hairy and exhausted? It all comes tumbling down on him all at once, to the point where he feels he HAS to get everything organized or else he's going to explode. Everyone keeps acting stupid and they're not paying attention to him at all. Even worse is that everyone seems to be ignoring him even more than usual. It's like he barely exists at all. At least the cadets are being supportive? Even if he has no idea what's happening. First thing's first--shave this ugly thing off his face. Then see who was fucking around with magic agai--ZACK STOP RUNNING IN THE HALL YOU'RE GOING TO HURT SOMEONE WHERE'S YOUR PRIDE AS A SOLDIER? Oh God. It's finally happening. Genesis puts his face in his hands and sobs. He's turning into a STIFF.

Sephiroth: Hot damn, it's good to be alive. Wakes up and has the inexplicable desire to not only socialize but to also make as many people suffer in one afternoon as humanly possible. As a treat. He hangs all over Genesis and Angeal asking why the hell are they bumming around in the office when they could be out scoring a little slice of the Promised Land over at the Honeybee? Stop being such a nag, Genesis. If you're going to have a midlife crisis, go piddle around with Reeve and his weird puppets. Or better yet, go nurse Angeal. Looks like he could use it. Sephiroth is feeling just DANDY, thank you very much. Actually he feels GREAT. Anyone up for a fight in the training room? Anyone up for a threesome oh fuck sorry uncalled for never min--actually no. Not nevermind. Offer stands.

Lazard locks them in the supply closet so they'll stop scaring everyone.

Finally gave this one a chance...🫣

For my DC fans.. I'm *very* aware Ezra Miller was/is currently? controversial. BEFORE you come at me, I am a huge Batman nerd and that's really the only reason I watched this movie! 🫣

Pros:

1. Michael Keaton reprising his role as Batman 🦇🙌🏼 . 2. Batman being Batman. 3. George Clooney showing up at the end as Bruce Wayne (solid ending). 4. Gal Gadot 🤩👏🏼 That's it 🤷🏼‍♀️

Cons:

** I hate saying this as a DC fan, but DC just CANNOT do live action movies well at ALL (The Dark Knight trilogy aside)!! I feel like they've never learned from their mistakes?? Have they never analyzed what is wrong and why their movies tank more often than not?? Sorry not sorry 🤷🏼‍♀️ I'll stick to the animated movies/shows which they excel at!! **

1. Ezra Miller's Flash. Can you say cringy?? (Not the whole time honestly, but majority, yes) 😬 seriously my least favorite version. Might be biased because I don't particularly care for Miller as a person... (Grant Gustin will always be my Flash) 2. The cameos of both George and Christopher Reeves and Adam West's Batman, felt weird. They don't appeal to a younger generation. The only reason I know about them is because my owner parents were around during that time and educated me on them. I think this film had plenty of missed opportunities to have current cameos of the same heroes. Especially since the CW's Crisis on Infinite Earths pulled in Miller's Flash. Could have returned the favor?? 3. Nicholas Cage Superman?? Hated that. No no no. Honestly not a huge Superman to begin with, but I respect a good portrayal of him when it happenes. But that was just bad. 4. Supergirl/Kara.. eh. 5. The Jason Momoa cameo in the post credits... Come on 🤦🏼‍♀️ Aquaman could have been so much better. 6. I love The Flash, as much as the next person, but there seems to always be a recurring theme with this character and it lacks uniqueness. Which theme? The one where Barry tries to go back in time to save his mom and inevitably f*cks up the timeline, creating a paradox. It is an overused plot to say the least. There's GOT to be more out there on him besides that?? I wanna see more of him taking on his enemies, his known ones from the Rogues gallery!!
