I do thank @j-d-15 a lot for drawing these.
One of them is a recreation from my artwork that was many months ago. (I did add some gothic texture to Julian’s jacket.)
So basically to anyone who doesn’t know,
It’s my designs for Julian & Stevens as adults from my previous posts about my Halloween x RC9GN x Christine scripts. Anyway we already know why Julian’s upset, because he lost his friend Juggo who got killed by Michael Myers’ former partner Corey Cunningham as we know it, we all know that I have a headcanon where Corey is Randy’s cousin. Especially Arnie’s cousin. (Arnie Cunningham from Christine.)
Stevens is showing love to Julian that he cares about him in the second image where he’s kissing his forehead. Julian’s eye is opened since he’s looking at him.
Poor Julian. 😢

Hi, would you be ok writing a 3some with Izzy and Julian Casablancas from the Strokes ? Smut, I would really love it!
IDK WHO JULIAN IS BUT SURE 🫶🫶🫶🫶
I’m always up for writing about new people🫶
Masterlist
Reptile -smut
Pairing: Izzy Stradlin x reader x Julian Casablancas
Warnings: threesome, oral M! Receiving, fingering, unprotected p in v , oral F! Receiving, slight degrading/ slight praise, hand job
Second person POV:
You were on tour as a roadie for your ex’s band, it wasn’t that bad that he was your ex, you were still friends with Julian. But god knowing what that body could do and how it could make your weak to your knees was eating away at you. This wasn’t your first time being a roadie for a band, hell or even having an ex in a band, you used to work for Guns ‘n Rose’s back in their Use Your Illusion album makings. You dated Izzy before he left to go down his own bath with the Ju-Ju Hounds. Looking back you really do have a type for dark haired boys.
You were now touring in old familiar LA, having a lot of time to kill as the next show was only in a few days. Walking down streets you remember well, when you used to be with Izzy. After what was maybe a an hour or two of wondering around you went back to the tour bus to go check on Julian and the others. Walking up the steps to the tour bus in your short leather jeans and a tight band shirt, you heard Julian laughing and chuckling from a mile away, with someone else who was familiar but you couldn’t put your finger on it. Entering the bus Julian immediately looked at you and smiled, he was sitting by the couch with someone else but your couldn’t see them as their back was turned and the couch was snuck in between the make shift walls of the bus. “Oh shit Y/N! Come here!” Julian said as he waved for you to come over. “Look who I picked up.” He said smuggly directing you to avert your gaze at the person in-front of him. Izzy. “Hey babe, I haven’t seen you in a while…” Izzy smirked his eyes scanning you under his dark sunglasses. His one hand finding your hip and greeting you with a squeeze of the skin. You blushed hard, missed his voice and his touch.
Soon after a light chat, you were sitting on the couch between the two men, having a more in-depth chat, but slipping in a joke or two. Soon you were drinking with them, laughing and giggling over past time stories. Julian was telling a story about when you and him went to the beach, his arm slumped across your shoulders on the top of the couch. You were listening intently, your drunkenness leading you too start starring at his lips and your mind wondering to a darker place. You clenched your thighs together, bitting the inside of your cheek as you imagined him doing things to your body. You were quickly taken out of it as you felt Izzy’s hand snake onto your thigh. His fingers digging for space between your thighs and separating them with ease and just one finger. His hand lingered there, his expression not changing, seeming so innocent, but he was looking you up and down with lust in his eyes under those sunglasses. Julian noticed your visible blush and Izzy’s hand. Jealousy. His hand now coming off the couch to play with the ends of your hair from your shoulder, and with his other hand trailing to your vacant thigh. God you were a wet mess down there, fuck. Julian gave your thigh a squeeze. Code for: ‘pay attention to me’. You tried hard to ignore the handsy men and listen to Julians story. Izzy grit his teeth, he wanted you to melt at his touch and give him all the attention. You were regardless, you were just using all your strength to not seem like it.
The conversation strayed to less and less serious as it got darker outside as the glasses got emptier and as the two dark haired mens hands trailed further up your thigh and shifted closer to you. “ I must say, you definitely do have a type.” Izzy said with a chuckle. You quirked an eyebrow at the sudden change of topic. “Yeah, you do, me and Izzy are literally twins but older!” Julian exclaimed. You rolled your eyes as they started making small suggestive jokes, not enough to make your stomach turn though. “So… who’s your favourite?” Julian asked smugly. Both of the men watching you impatiently waiting for an answer. You didn’t have a favourite, even if you did you wouldn’t tell them. “You’re both my favourite in different ways.” You answered, rolling your eyes as you took a sip of your drink. “What ways?” Julian perked. “In bed probably.” Izzy said sipping his drink as well. “So who’s better in bed then babe?” Julian asked, his face drawing closer to you. His eyes scanning from your eyes to your lips. “Yeah, who baby…?” Izzy repeated slowly, his hand starting to come off your thigh and lightly press against the crotch if your leather shorts. You let out a small soft gasp at the action. You tried to laugh to laugh it off, but they were serious. You missed the feeling of them touching you like this. “It’s been too long, I can’t say.” You told them. “Well then… maybe we can refresh your memory…” Julian said, placing his one hand on your cheek and caressed it as he looked into your eyes. “If you want us too…” Izzy said, retracting his hand from your clothed heat slowly. You whined at the now empty feeling. You wanted them more than anything. You nodded in response. “Use your words baby.” Julian said. You swallowed hard. “Please.” You sighed. “Please what?” Izzy chimed in. “I want both of you to fuck me. Now.” You confessed with lust in your voice. That was all they need to hear to get their gears grinding.
You were taken to Julians bedroom on the bus, which was just a small closet like room with a mattress filling all of it. Izzy threw you on the bed and started to shed his clothes. Julian had already stripped off his shirt on your way to the room so he began to take off your clothes. Taking off your shirt, kissing your neck, sliding his hand to unbutton your leather shorts, rubbing against the fabric restricting him from your pussy. Pulling off the shorts and finally getting to tease you as he pulled your panties down at an excruciatingly slow pace. You whined for him to hurry up as your body was aching for friction. “Fuck I missed those sounds you make.” He in a low voice and kissed you harshly, biting your bottom lip and sticking his tongue in your mouth, making out half naked on his bed. You opened your eyes to look at what Izzy was doing, he had just finished throwing most of his clothes on the floor except his underwear. You starred at his hard on and hot body whilst lightly moaning into Julian’s mouth as his hard dick under his jeans pressed against your clit. Izzy noticed your wandering eyes and pleading noises. He gave you a wink and your face burned hot. This man could make you weak so fast.
Your positions changed soon enough, ad Julian had to shed down his jeans. Izzy on the other hand was whispering dirty things in your ear, his hand snaking under your panties, one finger trailing to your folds and slipping in, pushing it until your slick ran down his knuckle. He took it out and rubbed your own wet on your clit. You gasped and moaned as you held onto his neck for dear life. “You always liked it when I did that. Little slut.” He whispered a low groan in your ear, as he inserted two fingers in your and continued to rub your clit with his thumb. He curled his fingers in you, making your body jolt and your lower stomach burn with pleasure. “Oh baby, I didn’t know you liked to be called names?” Julian said as he crawled over next to you. He played your hair, watching your face burn hot from Izzy finger fucking you. Watching intently, his dick getting harder at each moan you expelled. You arched your back, your eyes clenched shut, your mouth slightly a gape. Julian and Izzy knew this facial expression well, and it turned them on a lot more knowing you’re going to reach your peak soon. Izzy sucked and left hickeys on your neck as he continued to brutally fuck your wet cunt with his two fingers. “Fuck- I’m gonna-…” you gasped. “We know baby.” Julian said as he kissed you on the cheek. “Cum for us.” He finished. You moaned loudly and your legs shook. Izzy held one of them down to the bed by your thighs and Julian did the same with the other. “Fuck, fuck, fuck.” You chanted and whined. Your pussy burning in hot ecstasy as you were near your climax. “Izzy, please don’t stop…” you groaned right before you came all over Izzy’s hand. “You are such a pretty slut after you cum.” Julian said, holding you cheek softly as you rode down from your high, panting. Izzy took his fingers out of you, licking off your wetness. That action made you somehow wetter. “Good job baby.” He praised as he kissed you.
“Seems like you do have a favourite.” Julian said, referencing you moaning out Izzy’s name. You cheekily responded that he didn’t do anything in that moment to make you cum. He perked an eyebrow, taking it as a challenge. He pulled down your soaked panties, throwing it god knows where and started the lap up your wetness with his tongue. You clutched onto his hair with one hand, pulling as you gasped and groaned as he licked your overstimulated cunt. You looked over to Izzy as he pulled off his boxers, about to start jerking himself off. You stopped him and replaced his hand with yours. You gripped his dick as Julian began to work his tongue on your clit and trail off to go in your pussy. You began to pump Izzy’s dick, moaning and whining at the feeling if Julian eating you out. “Fuck… Julian…” you moaned. Your pussy was already so sensitive that you could cum at an sudden movement. You continued to move your hand up and down Izzy’s big hard dick, his head flinging back in pleasure, groaning as your pleased him. Julian grabbed your legs and pulled your pussy closer to his face, eating you out like an animal. Your hands clutched hard on Izzy’s dick and the other in between Julians soft hair. You and Izzy were both close as your privates throbbed. You moaned louder and louder until your reached your sweet release again, still pumping Izzy, but your hand faltering as you came over Julians mouth. Mumbling Julians name as you came down your second high and as Izzy’s cum spilled over your hand.
After having a small rest with Izzy and Julian before going for another round. You still needed more. You wanted them to be in you. Glancing at their hard dicks, nearly drooling. “Do you want to say something baby?” Julian asked noticing your gaze. You blushed in embarrassment. “You want something don’t you honey.” Izzy chimed in. You didn’t say anything but the way you stayed quiet said everything. “ You are such a dirty whore.” Izzy said to you before motioning for you to sit on his lap. You crawled over to him, first facing him, but he turned you around and you sat in his lap. His raw dick pressing against your cunt. Both of the men loved teasing you, and got off from it. They loved to make you beg. “Izzy please.” You pleaded for him to put his dick in your needy pussy. His tip grazed your folds, near your entrance, pushing into you slowly as he held onto your hips. You whined at the feeling of him stretching you out while he filled your pussy. You moaned and panted when he all the way in, resting as you hadn’t him like this with you in a while. Izzy kissed your necked and looked forward to Julian who was watching you moan on Izzy’s dick. “And what about poor Julian, huh baby?” Izzy whispered. You looked at Julian but he was already looking you. You called him over with your eyes, and he moved closer to you. You moved off Izzy’s lap but Izzy’s followed your movements and kept his dick in you. You were now on your knees, Izzy behind you ready to rail you till you couldn’t walk. You stretched your back down like a cat and put your hands on Julians thighs and licked his dick from base to top slowly. He groaned in and cussed in pleasure as you began to take his whole length in your mouth.
“Mmm, fucking whore. You like having two dicks in you, don’t ya?” Izzy said as he held onto your gips and thrusted into your g-spot, making your body move and deep throat Julian. “Fuck, you take us so well…” Julian groaned as he fisted your hair and flung his head back as you gagged on his dick. “Such a good girl…” Izzy let out a low groan as he snapped his hips back into you hard and the slaps began to echo in the small room. You moaned at his words, sending vibrations through Julians dick and making him hold your hair tighter and push your head down onto him. Tears began to prick your eyes, you were on cloud nine. You would always get so turned listening to Julian as you sucked him off, being completely defenseless to you. Izzy fucking your pussy like there’s no tomorrow, thinking about how his dick is so desperate for your pussy could make you cum right there. Both these men were helpless when it came to you. “Shit- Fuck-“ Izzy cursed as his dick began to twitch in you and his thrusts became uneven. You moaned harder as he really dug harder into your g spot, fuck you were gonna cum again. Your legs shook under Izzy’s hands. “Our little slut is gonna cum again soon, isn’t she.” Izzy said moaning ad he was nearly gonna cum too. Julian was too as he held your head down and twitched in your mouth, thrusting his hips up, face fucking you. Your body was so sensitive for all the past orgasms that you felt like your could past put when your third one of the night came. Cumming all over Izzy’s dick and moaning on Julians. “Fuck baby- I’m gonna-“ and with that Julian spilled all in your mouth and down your throat, you swallowed it all whilst looking up at Julian who’s face was red and his hair was disheveled. Not that yours was worse. He could have cum right there again as he watched you swallow his load. “Such a good girl…” he caressed your cheek and praised you. Izzy was close aswell, without Julian in your mouth now he could hear your moan as he pummelled your pussy. “Fuck- scream for me baby- yes…” He said thrusting his last thrust into you, you moaning as loud as you could, and he finally came in you. Shooting his hot cum in you, coating your walls. After a few seconds of panting and heavy breathing he pulled out and watched as the cum dripped down your legs.
“Our precious whore.”

‘ there’s no way this bed is big enough for you and me. ’ with Barry and Steven ‘ the innkeeper said this is the last room. ’ with Regina, Inessa and Francine ‘ shh, it’s okay. i’m here. ’ with Tenera and Baliin or ‘ i sleep commando, just so you know. ’ with James and Julian
Only one bed
The plan was actually to secretly go to a convention together, in Barrys eyes as friends given Steven was one of the few who shared such nerdy interests even if it was in a cringe way... but after the convention Barry noticed a horror that happened at the checkin... his own ego made him forget to book two rooms for them and instead they had to share a room... and a bed.
‘ There’s no way this bed is big enough for you and me. ’
"Barry-san, I know one way!"
"What do you me- Ack."
To his surprise the tall blond man hugged him tight and let himself fall onto the bed... leaving him squeezed on top of his chest red af... Barry just was flabbergasted putting his hands on it and just look down at him with a tomato red face.
"DUDE THIS IS NOT WHAT FRIENDS DO!"
"But why not... its a sugoi solution."
"L-listen... you get the bed cause you are taller, I take the couch... this will be far better for me..."
"Honto ni? You are a sweetheart for lending me the bed."
"Yeah yeah whatever... just please don't do something like this again."
The Hero boy settled down his back, took a shower and then took his blanket to sleep on the couch. Still he could hear Steven murmur in his sleep.
"Hnn... Barry-san... can we... please hug..."
He hid even more under the blanket... not only did this idiot drive him mad... no he liked him as much as he did... why did he have to feel that way... why was he tempted to join him in bed... he tried to slightly hide in his blanket hope these thoughts would vanish but they kept him up all night.
Among a luxus Winter trip Regina organized, Francine and Inessa were happy to take a break from all the work they did daily... it being quite necessary for the both of them... it was a nice day in the snow... one where the three could ice skate together and enjoy the mountains... but the inn had bad news for them as Francine talked to them.
‘ The innkeeper said this is the last room. ’
"I see.... what a shame."
Inessa gave a nod to Regina who sighed.
"I have an air matress with me we can handle it with the space."
The three ladies headed up the stairs drawing many eyes to them before going to their room and settling bags and suitcases down... Francine leaning back against the couch.
"Finally one week of freedom from that whining Hero... I know I will come back to stress again."
Regina sat down next to her crossing her legs.
"You deserve better than to associate with him."
Francine sighed as Inessa prepared them both an Ice tea.
"He does provide my family however... at least his dad does... this is worth the annoyance."
"And If I would assist you."
"Regina please... I don't want you to spend your money on me really."
Glass blue eyes looked at the heroine in sincerity as she put one hand on hers.
"I rather have you at my side and happier than with this fool."
Inessa settled down the glasses.
"You already pay for this vacation first we need to pay you back. We will find a way to all be free of our responsibilities right. And..."
Inessa blushed a little.
"I still need to thank you two for healing my heart after Dragiselle."
The three shared a small hug before looking back at that bed...
"Regina... you take it... Nessa and I can-"
"No you two join me here... I don't mind it."
The three huddled together... peacefull at once... closing their eyes without any strain or stress to bother them this time.
Although Tenera was happy that Baalin took her to a trip to his homeland... at night when she heard she was sharing a room with him... despite that happy feeling it didn't carry over into her dreams... nightmares plagued her... memories of her fathers rejecting her... of those bullies who were the cause of her legs.... it all itched in her brain as she in her sleep clinged onto Baalins back before suddenly flinching up... her eyes wet as if she cried.
Baalin noticed how panicked she was and pulled her in a hug.
‘ Shh, it’s okay. i’m here. ’
"I... thank you... Even if ... I grew up in the darkness... sometimes... I think I still fear it."
He got shortly up to open the curtains of the window again before joining her back in bed and pulling her close between his arms.
"If anyone tries to harm you, I will keep you save, alright?"
"Hmm-mmhh.. Thank you Bal...I do feel save near your heartbeat."
"What did you dream about?"
She grew silent before asking a question.
"What would you do.... if I never was able to walk again?"
"Not much would change... I would love you all the same."
A soft hum escaped her mouth as she clinged onto him closer.
"I love you so much... and.. I know you don't know me differently but... I still had hope to one day play tennis like normal... but with you... I think I am fine to live with another dream."
"And that be."
The Cat ears twitched.
"To marry you and have a family one day?"
James escaped a groan as he figured out who had to share a room with for this interschool trip... of course it had to be him... but worse... the room they were staying at had only one bed in the middle. And Julian didn't make the situation any better.
‘ I sleep commando, just so you know. ’
"W-what?!"
"Just kidding <3 But your eyes looked curious."
"Oh shut up."
He tried to calm himself down... put down his things, load out his clothes in the closet but then he noticed in his mirror how Julian dressed up in the back... avoiding his eyes to not spy quickly... why did this demon had to get him so nervous.
"Given we are roomies you wouldn't mind going to a party with me tonight right?"
"We are supposed to get up early, Julian?"
"No biggy, its done before midnight but-"
The Demon leaned over James shoulder still shirtless... making the situation not easier for him.
"I wanted to see if I could convince you with my dance move to share the bed later~"
"We are going to share it anyways."
"I know but... You need to loosen up a little. You are always so stiff... a handsome knight like you deserves a break. <3"
He turned around and gave him a wink.
"Be carefull... being in a bed with me might let you wake up with some bite marks-"
"Can you stop that?"
It was a nightmarish day of tease he was unsure how to take... but at least he did get a bit of rest later... at least a little bit.

Just remembered the movie Life Like... It's honestly kind of a frustrating experience for me cause it could have given us polyamory/OT3 but didn't. Well, not really at least. Some might consider it lowkey poly or poly adjacent. But it could have gone at least a little further.
Sure I only watched it cause it had Drew Van Acker hooking up with a guy, but still. It had some interesting themes about AI/robots/androids and love, similar to Chobits and some of Vision’s stories...
The way each of them interacted with the robot was interesting. The husband kinda just saw him as an object but that also sort of opened up the door to using him sexually, and then after he seems to realize he kinda cares? And the robot and the wife were just cute with a similar feel to ScarletVision. The couple has a bunch of issues but are trying to stick together and then there's this third person getting between them, which now reminds me of Akidrey and Makidrey.
And then, spoiler alert, it ends with a rather weird and kinda stupid plot twist where the robot was actually a human that was groomed/"brainwashed" to think he's a robot and Jarvis from Agent Carter has a whole business doing that????
And then the fake android sort of sacrifices himself for the couple who "owned" him and they... Name their child after him. That (a flashforward with the kid) is the actual final scene and is honestly so cheesy and cringy and... Meh? I mean, that's nice I guess but... Besides not getting what I wanted it's just also kinda weird in that it feels like it doesn't really have anything to say in what were supposed to be the main themes (the robot/android/AI vs humans and love between them stuff, since he's actually just a human)...
For a while now I've thought about writing a fic about it, where they would end up as a throuple and maybe even being a novelization of the movie but I really doubt I will cause I'm not actually that passionate about it and literally no one would read it lol.

What is a murderboy?
A murderboy is a character that meets the following requirements:
Is male
Either commits murder, commits attempted murder, or directly or indirectly causes a significant amount of otherwise avoidable death
The fandom for the piece of media they're from absolutely does not know how to be normal about them. ("[x character] did nothing wrong" vs "[x character] is the literal devil" type arguments, for example)
So what are we doing here?
Simple! We're running polls to find Tumblr's Ultimate Murderboy!
Round one:
JD (Heathers) vs Magneto (marvel)
The Master (Doctor Who) vs Sebastian (Black Butler)
Oswald Cobblepot (Gotham) vs The Phantom of the Opera
Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen version) vs Ed Nygma (Gotham)
Hans (Frozen) vs Komaeda (Danganronpa)
Moash (Stormlight Archive) vs Dabi (My Hero Academia)
Loki (MCU) vs Steven Universe (Steven Universe)
Klaus (Vampire Diaries) vs Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars)
Light Yagami (Death Note) vs Edward Nashton (The Batman)
Kylo Ren (Star Wars) vs Springtrap/William Afton (FNAF)
Guillermo de la Cruz (WWDITS) vs Jim Moriarty (BBC Sherlock)
Ben Mitchell (Eastenders) vs Julian Fawcett (BBC Ghosts)
Ashfur (Warrior Cats) vs Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins version)
Adam (Forever) vs Simon Laurent (Infinity Train)
Guy of Gisborne (BBC Robin Hood) vs Jim Keats (Ashes to Ashes)
Simon Keyes (Ace Attorney) vs Scar (The Lion King)

Yuri and Natuski, Doki Doki Literature Club
Lyn and Florina, Fire Emblem the Blazing Blade
Wowie, what an all-star cast! Videogames, comics, movies, anime, cartoons, classic literature, and more.
So, I'm going to aim to get the ball rolling, let's say October 14th. I'll start with Men's Round 1, then the following week do Women's Round 1, and so on. I will post the actual brackets a bit closer to that date.
In the meantime! If anyone would like to submit any propaganda, images, complaints, objections, or what have you, the ask box will remain open. I know last time had a pretty rocky start, but I am wise for the experience, and I think this time 'round will be even better.

JADE - "ANGEL OF MY DREAMS"
youtube
And single of ours...
[7.45]
Julian Axelrod: You never know when you'll hear the song that changes your life. It could come from a DJ, or an algorithm, or a girl group lifer who you could have sworn was the third most famous member of Fifth Harmony but was actually the first or second most notable member of Little Mix, depending on who you ask. I had no idea what Jade Thirlwall's debut single would sound like before I first pressed play, but even if you gave me 1000 guesses, I never would have landed on "Rina Sawayama doing Uffie over a Eurovision sample that curdles into the nastiest dubstep drop since the Obama administration." This isn't the first time an X Factor alum has stuffed a solo single with a million disparate elements to keep things interesting; it's not even the first time it's happened this year. But the magic of "Angel of My Dreams" is the way it extends that first-listen feeling to listens 2-500. Even though I know the song by heart, each individual section is so strong that I never expect the drop, or the rap verse, or the intro melody reprise at the end. (I didn't even notice the camera flash sound effects at the 2:07 mark until my third listen!) This could be the start of an all-time pop run, or it could be a fleeting moment of glory. I couldn't care less: When I'm listening to "Angel of My Dreams," I just want to live in each moment until it ends, then immediately live them all again. [10]
Harlan Talib Ockey: Girls Aloud doing nightcore “Bohemian Rhapsody”, except also emotionally brutal. We will watch your solo career with great interest. [7]
Dave Moore: How do you even write a pop melody like this these days? Nothing borrowed yet nothing new -- dozens of refreshes of WhoSampled yields nothing to alleviate my nagging sense that surely I've heard it before; my brain refuses to play a rousing game of earworm hunt like with Chappell Roan. It's a bit of a shame that the whole thing devolves into a K-pop-ish party-by-numbers muddle, but in the end she wins, is not in the bin, etc. [8]
Kat Stevens: If I don't win, I'm in the bin. Specifically, the bin on Deptford High Street opposite Perfect Fried Chicken. [8]
Iain Mew: Some of the joy "Angel of My Dreams" has brought is that it's 80% of the way to being a maximalist Rina Sawayama song, and yet is also a persistent enough UK hit to have re-entered the top ten in its fourth week. The range of possibilities looks newly widened. Jade brings some specific things to make it her own triumph too. It's not just leading off with something so ambitious and inventive, but that she is able to wear it so lightly and naturally, Harry Styles-style. It's even more impressive to do so with a song that appears to dig into bitter personal experience, centred around repetitions of IT'S NOT FAIR so resonant as to move from sulk to deep truth. [9]
Nortey Dowuona: Jade Thirlwall apparently sees the chance to etch her name into stone, rather than make a safe, easy pitch that might simply be forgotten or regarded as nice. But there are many songs about the cruel and unusual punishment of daring to use one's talent and love to make random weirdos who wear unflattering V-necks a lot of money. Thus Mike Sabath, creator of the world-conquering "Escapism" (and, in a fun little twist, another Jade and Mike Joint as well as the second best Liam Payne song) starts us off with a wilting cry of desperation that has to be walloped by the heavy swing of the chorus, glittery synths sitting atop. The song zips into raspy bass and flimsy and flimsier kick/snare patterns from then on, slowly flattening you until you are nearly crushed. The heavy-handed swing of the first chorus sweeps back in to save you and bind you to it as it disappears, Jade's firm, fluttery soprano left hanging out on the ledge. It's almost as if JADE, unlike RAYE, is not begging to be set free -- she's begging to be let in. [6]
Jonathan Bradley: Cycling through three different song concepts in the first 35 seconds suggests not so much a desire to "do something crazy" as a struggle to hit on anything melodically memorable. It turns out that the slowed-down bass-heavy breakdown works, as does the twinkling fairy dance augmenting the chorus, but a lot of this mistakes attitude for tune -- the sort of B-grade effort that made Little Mix only intermittently worthwhile. See, for instance, Jade stretching out "feels li-yi-yi-yi-yi-ke" and "spoli-yi-yi-yi-yi-ight" for no real purpose beyond filling time before the next switch up. [4]
Taylor Alatorre: The lack of concern for the cleanliness of the transitions make this feel like a promising storyboard in search of a director, or least someone to step in and say that a desire to be seen as daring and boundary-pushing does not equate to such, and can in fact expose the whole gambit. Most listeners should walk away with a favored segment to return to -- mine is the chrome-polished, push-to-start recitation of the title phrase -- but a quarterlife retrospective like this should feel more internally cohesive than a sitcom clip show. [5]
Ian Mathers: The classic "pick your battles. pick… pick fewer battles than that. put some battles back. that’s too many" tumblr post, now in song form! [7]
Mark Sinker: The idea was like a will o’the wisp or Capt.Fawcett’s Lost City of Z, a gleam, a flicker, a dangerous promise glimpsed across a clearing and through the trees -- and it was something like this (it was always hard to explain clearly). A manufactured alt-pop girlie gang, perfectly designed to win reality TV competitions because also able to fashion the drama of their rise -- and their internal ebbs and flows -- into quilted chart-prog rap-adjacent concept EPs and singles-length mini-musicals, like the Hamilton of the Sugababes. It’s there, always beckoning, just out of reach -- and the acts that pass through the glamour of it are always great, of course, very great, but they also always dissipate too fast, before they really land on the absolute thing itself. Perhaps that's the point; perhaps that's my doom. [9]
Katherine St. Asaph: I am banned from time machines now because I abused my time-travel privileges to do frivolous shit, like posting this song to the Popjustice forums in 2007 and measuring the blast radius of Xenomaniac rapture. [9]
