What 3 tracks come up on your shuffle?

From my most recent playlist on Spotify... including an extra 2 songs because I love curating playlists...

Ohne Gnade by Apache 207 (no, I don't speak German, but his music sounds nice to me)

Sport by Apache 207 (my original fave of Apache's)

As I Try Not To Fall Apart by White Lies (which is one of my favorites of this band, but I listen to a lot of their songs, and I have the cd album this song belongs to)

Take Me Back by Foster the People

Where My Heart Will Take Me by Diane Warren and Russell Watson (yes this is actually on several of my playlists and I love it every time it plays)

What's the last video in your YouTube history?

The Minecraft Movie trailer, which I watched specifically to understand as much as I could. I was left even more disappointed and confused.

The last thing you texted somebody:

"Omwh ly" to my family group chat

The last emoji you used:

👀 which is my favorite.

five books with aroace main characters you say....please share 👀

You are super in luck anon because almost as soon as i posted that I started compiling a list of all the ace/aro-spec books I could remember reading, these are all across a big variety of genres and age categories but all the mcs fall somewhere on the aro-ace spectrum (and personal faves are bolded)

Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire: I think most people here know this one. A world where children sometimes disappear through magical doorways to other worlds, and sometimes return. When this happens, they usually are desperate to find a way back. Nancy is one of these children, looking for a way back to an underworld of living statues that has become her home while also trying to find a murderer at the boarding school full of other children looking for their own doorways back to their worlds. Asexual mc

Summer Bird Blue by Akemi Dawn Bowman: Rumi, a teenager whose younger sister recently died, moves to Hawaii to spend a few months with her aunt, where she tries to piece together who she is without her sister and rediscover her love of songwriting, something she and her sister always did together. Aro-ace questioning mc

Forward March by Skye Quinlan: Harper, a student at a prestigious high school whose father is running for president, deals with school, marching band, and a presidential campaign all while trying to figure out if she really likes the girl and fellow bandmate who recently was catfished by someone pretending to be Harper. Ace lesbian mc

All Systems Red by Martha Wells: This one is pretty popular too, idc. Murderbot is a self-named human-bot construct (think cyborg, but manufactured specifically for security purposes) who hacked its own governer module to gain free will, and then used that free will to continue doing its job while watching thousands of hours worth of space soap operas. Unfortunately, its existence of efficiently half-assing keeping humans safe is disrupted by a group of clients who end up in hot water, all while being unexpectedly concerned with its state of freedom and the status of its personhood. Aro-ace agender mc

Elatsoe by Darcie Little Badger: Elatsoe, also known as Ellie, is a young Lipan Apache girl who has a dream where her cousin tells her the name of his killer—the morning before she wakes up to the news of his death. She and her parents travel to the town he lived and died in and work to comfort his grieving family while searching for evidence that will prove the killer, a well-liked community figure, is guilty. Also features faeries, ghosts, and other paranormal and mythical creatures. Asexual mc

The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakavic: ANOTHER very well-known tumblr book! Whatever, not gonna try to explain the plot, these are the lacrosse murder books you’ve heard of them and if you haven’t you can look up a summary. Mc is word-of-god demisexual but also it’s so evident in canon even without being explicitly stated that I personally don't even think you need the disclaimer

Vespertine by Margaret Rogerson: In a world where dead spirits regularly rise from deceased bodies to devour and possess the living, Artemisia is a nun-in-training who will one day cleanse the bodies of the recently deceased so that their souls can move on to the afterlife. Then, she releases an ancient and dangerous spirit from a relic to protect her convent from attack. The spirit possesses her body and gives her extraordinary power—but the spirit isn't necessarily on her side, and it's unclear if the connection formed between the two of them can safely be severed. Asexual mc (not explicit bc it's fantasy, but I think it's pretty obvious even without the exact word used)

Firebreak by Nicole Kornher-Stace: In a dystopian world torn apart by two rival corporations, Mallory is one of many people who find refuge in a virtual reality game that allows you to enter battle, earn real-life credits for sorely-needed necessities like water, and interact with virtual, computer-created versions of the league of supersoldiers that protect her home city from attack. Mallory has had a parasocial obsession with one of these supersoldiers—22—for years, until one day she gets caught in an attack that results in her meeting the flesh-and-blood version of the celebrity/superpowered protector. As she spends more time with 22 and his paired operative, she begins to see just how deep the corruption of the company that controls her city runs—and also begins to wonder what she can do to help the city and everyone who lives in it. Aro-ace mc

Those are all the ones I feel like writing out full summaries for, but some other books that I really like with aroace mcs are The Diviners by Libba Bray (ace lesbian mc in second book), The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon (word-of-god aroace mc), The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang (word-of-god aroace secondary character), and The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards (word-of-god demisexual gay mc, ace secondary character). The one thing I haven't really read any of is books with aroallo main characters :( If anyone has recs for those, please feel free to share!

Hiiiiii 🙋🏼‍♀️ a while back you said it's ok to just ask you stuff so I will! Do you have any German-language songs besides Rammstein that you love and recommend? 😀

Hello Anon! Thank you! \(≧ᴗ≦*) YES I DO ❤️

I highly recommend watching the videos of "Dusche" and "Tag mit Schutzumschlag", because that's how I discovered these two songs as a young teen! "Dusche" is about a paranoid man, who fears things in his house, thinking that they are conspiring to assassinate him. I was obsessed with it. While "Tag mit Schutzumschlag" seems a little cheesy now but for some reason this video creeped me out back then but at the same time I couldn't look away. 👀 🤷🏻‍♀️

"Fahrrad" is a light hearted song that is fun to sing along to and puts you in a good mood. 😊

I would love to add a song by Till Lindemann, too. I mean, it's not a Rammstein song, so... 😬

And last but not least, "Ding" by Seeed. Another song with a pretty interesting video that used to unsettle me a bit but also fascinated me because of the animation style. 🤓

[yorshie]

My forgetful ass meant to send this a while ago but better late than never 🥴 Yorshie, please give us your headcanon songs for the Bayverse Boys: what do they each listen to when getting ready for a date with their S/O 👀💚🎵

If you have more than 1 for them please share with the class 🙇🏻‍♀️🤓

Thank you for the ask! Never late and I’m always open to talk turtles and music.

I have. Like. So many songs that I associate with the bayverse turtles. I kinda…… maybe….. have a playlist on Spotify for vibes that go with each of them. Not really like “this song reminds me of this turtle” but more like “Mikey makes me feel x so this playlist is gonna have songs that make me feel x”

I do think they probably listen to vastly different music than what reminds ME of them however. Canonically we know they’re at least all into hip hop, enough to make a Christmas album, and groups like Wu Tang Clan. and despite everyone collectively deciding Leo likes eastern style music dude was still twerking in an elevator to beat box so for a date night vibe~

I can see Mikey listening to In The Club or Apple Bottom Jeans. Just anything border line embarrassing. Throw some Lonely Island in there. If you cannot hear him shouting “calling 911 shorty fire burning on the dance floor” I’m sorry but I can lol

Raph maybe 30 by Nas or I really think he’d like NF. Idk like Raph is the one turtle that music that reminds me of him is probably also the music he listens to. Really anything that you can work out to I bet he listens to.

Leo is eeeeeehhhh cuz I’m blinded by the Feelings but I think he’d listen to older music when he’s by himself. I got bit by the Tally Hall Hidden in the Sand bug and I can just imagine him humming along to it. I think he’d also enjoy eighties electronic music.

Donnie I could see him listen to classic rock when he’s not listening to filthy shit while he’s working. Things like AC/DC, Blue Oyster Cult or Tears For Fears.

I know it’s a bit more personal taste but if you’d like some songs that I myself put to each turtle, I’ll include some under the read more line

[toxxuki]

Verla sonreír hace que su enojo vaya disminuyendo por lo que termina desviar la cabeza para no observarla “En parte, lo otro es porque te tuve una sorpresa ese día” la cual ahora no se la iba a dar tan fácilmente, pues de alguna manera debía de desquitarse. Explicación que solo le hace generar dudas y su curiosidad queriendo salir a flote, pero la conocía, presionarla no sería nada bueno, por lo que suelta un suspiro “Pudiste haber avisado” si tan solo ella también tomara ese consejo en práctica. “No lo sé, podría hacerlo, pero no estoy muy segura” prefiere engañarla por un momento con la simple intención de querer ver su reacción.

Respuesta que le hace ladear su cabeza un poco a la derecha, al tiempo que su mano derecha es alzada a la altura de su barbilla mientras la izquierda sostiene su codo, claramente con la intención de reprochar aquello, lo siguiente le provoca chasquear su lengua “¿Por qué digo eso?” repite sin esperar a que la menor le responda “Porque cierta señorita desaparece sin decir nada, además, ¿Que se celebró el veinte de marzo?” esperaba que eso fuera suficiente para que la contraria entendiera adónde iba dirigido todo.

[zephyrbug]

Any flowers you associate to Alvah, Irae and Yew? Asking for no reason in particular 👀

👀

Wait this is such a fun question tho!! Lemme think....

Well Irae is a classic rose/ wilted rose, briars, ghost orchid? The spookier gothic feeling flowers

Yew is lily of the valley, mistletoe, pine, yew (of course) / any white or snowy feeling flower

Alvah I haven't thought about before! Castilleja Applegatei for sure, maybe some desert globemallows? red yucca? Apache plumes? wild desert flowers are all on the table

But yeah that's about it! This was a fun one to think about and honestly I'm happy to hear about any flower you think would suit my characters!!
