‘the black bastard of the wall’ moniker is the exact opposite of the ‘white wolf’ moniker and this perfectly highlights the irreconcilable differences between book Jon and show Jon

"Having grown up on punk rock, Eddie Larkin-Crowley has taken the alternative genre by storm. Combining the fiery energy and heavy riffs of classic rock and punk with the lyricism and dreamy vocals of folkpunk and R&B, Crowley's music is completely unique to the scene whilst staying true to both genre's roots. Usually making music about embracing aromantism and fighting amatonormativity or inspired by classic gothic literature, Crowley's albums always have a story to tell from the beginning to the very last track."

THROWING UP IN THE BATHROOM AT THE VALENTINE'S PARTY・2021

# TITLE

1 crush culture 2 life's a bit 3 aromantic moodboard 4 eighteen 5 sweet tooth 6 arms tonite 7 kissaphobic 8 against the kitchen floor 9 scared of my guitar 10 that's enough, let's get you home 11 better than me 12 no children 13 awesome party, dude! 14 dead boy in the pool. 15 sex, drugs, rock 'n roll

"This was the album concept that really first connected to me on a deep level. it's about longing and yearning for something that you think you need, but knowing you can't have. I spent a long time thinking I needed to be in a relationship and forced myself to date so many people waiting for "the one". But, the one never came. From the angry, punk rock energy of "life's a bit", to the more acoustic reflection of "scared of my guitar", all the way to the piano ballad of "sex, drugs, rock 'n roll", valentine's party, as a whole, is the story of someone desperate to find their soulmate, hoping it will complete them, but in the end realizing they hated even being with this person they were so desperate to prove themself to. aromantic desperation, basically."

"honestly, this EP is just songs that didn't make the valentine's party album. So, in a way, this is the continuation of that album's story. The story of the main character recognizing who they are and their identity, and then...accepting it. Accepting themself as they are. The good ending. I honestly didn't except "never been in love" to go as viral as it did, but I'm glad it did. There was never anybody like me in music when I was growing up. Everything was about romance and finding your perfect match, and it made me feel like I needed it. I'm glad the next generation is getting songs for those of us who don't want that. I'm glad I can be the person I needed in music when I was growing up."

NEVERMORE・2023

# TITLE

1 a tell-tale heart 2 black cat 3 portrait of an idiot 4 kingdom by the sea 5 from eden 6 pits and pendulum 7 outliars and hyppocrates 8 metaphor 9 fall of the house of usher 10 masque of red death 11 amontillado 12 lenore 13 memento mori 14 quoth the raven: 15 "nevermore."

​🇼​​🇭​​🇦​​🇹​❜​🇸​ ​🇹​​🇭​​🇪​ ​🇦​​🇷​​🇹​​🇮​​🇸​​🇹​ ​🇭​​🇦​​🇻​​🇪​ ​🇹​​🇴​ ​🇸​​🇦​​🇾​?

"Nevermore is a passion project, I admit. I've always loved gothic literature and especially Edgar Allen Poe, so I knew I wanted to write something inspired by it. Nevermore started as a collection of poems following someone descending into madness, like in so many of Poe's short stories. From the haunting melody of "a tell-tale heart", to the rapid lyricism of "outliars and hyppocrates" all the way to the full punk rock release of "nevermore.", this album is a story about a fall from grace and sanity. A lot of it has been inspired by my own battles with mental health and intrusive thoughts, though not all of it is autobiographical, obviously."

​🇼​​🇭​​🇦​​🇹​❜​🇸​ ​🇹​​🇭​​🇪​ ​🇦​​🇷​​🇹​​🇮​​🇸​​🇹​ ​🇭​​🇦​​🇻​​🇪​ ​🇹​​🇴​ ​🇸​​🇦​​🇾​?

"This album, honest to god, blossomed from my random impulsive thought on day; "what if I just ran away and went feral in the woods?" I entertained the thought and wrote "bugabear" and it all went downhill from there. dirt falling over my head, from the bootstamping "the hand that feeds", to the haunting "maggot" all the way to the eerie "little dark age" and "meet me in the woods", is about the idea of running away from civilation and becoming one with the woods. however, what happens when you become one with the woods? you don't just become part of the woods, they become a part of you too. moss grows up in your lungs and your skin cracks like bark. you're something more than human now, and how will you repay the woods for it?"

PHILIA (AND OTHER GREEK WORDS FOR LOVE)・2027

# TITLE

​🇼​​🇭​​🇦​​🇹​❜​🇸​ ​🇹​​🇭​​🇪​ ​🇦​​🇷​​🇹​​🇮​​🇸​​🇹​ ​🇭​​🇦​​🇻​​🇪​ ​🇹​​🇴​ ​🇸​​🇦​​🇾​?

"This album is all about exploring the different concepts of love. I wanted to highlight this ever since I learned about the greek concepts of love. As an aromantic person, I wanted to make an album about love without it being inherently romantic, and this was the perfect way to do it. Philia follows different relationships that embody each of the greek concepts of love that their song is named for. It's a bit of an anthology as an album, standalone stories connected by a common theme."

Wow I have been nonstop thinking about tennis king yuuta and his little baby boy I’m going to kill you (affectionate) - @yuutito

teeheeeeeeeee….. here’s some more, aleks :’) enjoy :))))))

“Everybody thinks he looks like me, but I don’t see it that way. Maybe it’s because every time I look at him, I see my wife and I’m reminded of her […] I’m a little biased so I see her in everything.” 

You find yourself with tears welling in your eyes the more you read into Yuuta’s latest magazine interview. Between his sweet quotes and the pictures of him with your son, it’s taking everything in you not to burst into full-blown tears. 

Your boys look so handsome. You and Yuuta shared your concerns with publicizing your child at such a young age, but you two came to the conclusion that you’d rather have the control in the narrative than to let private family pictures be leaked uncontrollably. As another point of reassurance, Yuuta’s career provided him with just enough lime-light to be a household name without the crazy fame and criticism that came along being a true celebrity. Besides—Yuuta talked enough about you and your son in press conferences and interviews that it was bound to happen sooner rather than later. 

The article wasn’t entirely about you, or your family—or at least, you’re sure it wasn’t intended to be; you knew your husband had a knack for rambling about his loved ones, even where work was concerned. As you continue to read, you find a segment where the author compared Yuuta’s current statements with something similar he’d said about you twelve years ago—at the very start of his professional career: “If I owe this [winning Gold] to anybody, it’s my girlfriend. She’s always believed in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself. I wouldn’t have qualified or even thought to qualify if it weren’t for her.” 

It feels like you and Yuuta were just two kids in love back then. You didn’t think it could be more than that—you didn’t think you could love Yuuta more than you did all those years ago, but somewhere along the way just being in love wasn’t enough to describe it; Yuuta became your partner, someone you loved fundamentally, but also because you couldn’t stand to see yourself without him. And just when you thought you couldn’t love anyone nearly as much as you love him, you turn the page to a picture of your husband and son peeping through the holes of a racket and your heart feels full. 

When you scan the image more closely, you realize that it isn’t just any racket—it’s an old one, one you’d given to Yuuta as a gift probably back in high-school. You had no idea he’d kept it, but you suppose you shouldn’t be all that surprised; Yuuta is nothing if not sentimental. 

“Ah, there she is~” Yuuta’s voice cuts through your thoughts. When you turn, you see him, with your baby boy on his hip, sliding the back porch door closed. 

Both boys approach you with a smile on your face, and you set the magazine aside to sit up in the lounge chair to greet them. Yuuta presses a kiss to your forehead, then your lips before you do the same to your son. Immediately after, he reaches his arms out for you, and Yuuta chuckles, “You wanna be with your mama? Can’t blame you, I missed her, too.” 

He hands the baby off to you, and takes a seat on the other end of the chair, reaching over to coo at his son as you smother his face in kisses. 

“How was the farmer’s market?” you question, letting the baby settle into your lap. 

“Good, he picked out some very bright peppers, and we got some more strawberries, know you’ve been craving them,” Yuuta smiles, reaching over to pat your son’s head, when the closed magazine catches his eye, and he reaches for it, quickly flipping through, “Ah—I guess that interview’s out. He’s grown so much, even though it was only a few months ago.” 

You find the blush on his cheeks beyond endearing. Yuuta always finds room to be bashful no matter how many times he’s waxed poetic about his love for you, or his family—his cheeks always stain pink like the first day you met him. 

“It’s sweet. You’re sweet,” you smile, sparing a hand to run through Yuuta’s hair, charmed by the way he leans into your touch, “I didn’t know you still had that racket.” 

“Of course, I keep everything you give me,” he says, earnestly. He closes the magazine and scoots a little closer, taking advantage of the proximity and of your touch to lay his head on your shoulder, “Did you… read all of it?” 

“Almost, but no, why?” you question, with a light-hearted grin, “Did you say something that would lead the world to believe you’re somehow even more in love with me? Because you might already be past the threshold, dear.” 

Yuuta hums. He reaches to take you son out of your lap and carefully shifts himself to that he’s laying down, his head on your lap, and the baby in his arms, happily giggling and cooing as Yuuta holds him up. He lowers and raises him back and forth a few times, nuzzling their noses together when their faces are close, before sitting him up on his chest.

Then he tilts his head up to look at you, wide, love-filled eyes blinking slowly before he says, “Maybe… depends on if me saying I want more kids is past the threshold or not.”

Could Goncharov kill Macbeth?

Okay, I'm really glad you brought this up, since this is a topic that has... kind of come up before on this blog (See: Steven Universe, Zagreus from Hades) but not exactly so I think this is a great moment to address it:

I think that if being a C-section baby counted towards the Unconventional Birth Clause for MacDuff, then it should count for it when a character is delivered posthumously. Since Goncharov is this sort of situation, with his mother Viktoria having died during childbirth (the wording implies that she died slightly before childbirth, but either way it is explicitly said she died in the hospital), he would count towards the Unconventional Birth Clause.

As for the Gender Clause, I know someone is going to bring this up, so let me make this clear: Goncharov saying "I can no longer look in the mirror and see a man" in the balcony scene with Andrey is just him dramatically saying that he is disgusted with who he has become at that point in the movie. He's not saying that he's trans, he's saying that he's a monster/inhuman. You can headcanon this however you want, but the fact of the matter is that in canon, he's just saying he can't live with himself after what he did to Antonio. So, no, Goncharov does not apply for the Gender Clause.

So, long story short: Yes, Lo Straniero aka Goncharov from the eponymous Goncharov (1973) could kill Macbeth!

He applies for the Unconventional Birth Clause.

Thank you for your submission!
