Jason Todd x GN!singer
Jason knew that he should keep his distance, but he cant help but fall of Gothamās most beloved singer. part 1
Jason was currently on patrol with Nightwing, jumping and running between rooftops.
āYou seem pretty hyper todayā Nightwing commented as he landed beside Jason on the edge of a building.
Jason rolled his eyes under his helmet.
Dick often teased him whenever he was in a particularly good mood. And today, he was very much in a good mood.
āShut upā he retorted back at him. āIām just on a good roll today, is all.
āAre you going to go see your girlfriend again after patrol?ā Dick asked, grinning as he eyed Jasonās happy demeanor.
Jason glanced over at Dick. He had to resist the urge to just smack the grin right off his face.
āNone of your businessā Jason grumbled, keeping his eyes focused on the city below.
āWhoās your girlfriend?ā you peeked from behind.
Jason whirled around, his heart nearly jumping out of his chest.
His eyes widened as he saw you standing behind him. His mind was going crazy wondering how in the world youād snuck up on him like that.
Meanwhile Dick was just laughing maniacally beside him, completely amused by Jasonās reaction to your surprise appearance.
Jason had to resist the urge to glare at Dick.
He focused his eyes on you, who was looking at him with a cheeky grin.
āWhat are you doing here?ā he asked.
āWas on patrol and wanted to see you boys.ā you answered.
Dick chuckled again. āYou just wanted to see this oneā he said, gesturing at Jason.
Jason was about to snap at Dick but managed to hold himself back.
āOh,ā you frowned, āguilty as charged.ā you joked back.
Jason could feel his cheeks heat up a bit as you admitted it.
He glanced over at Dick to see if he was going to say anything and thankfully he didnāt.
He turned back to you, trying to act casual. āYou couldnāt have waited until we got back to the Bat-Cave?ā he asked, crossing his arms.
You crossed your arms āCame all the way to find at least one of you then you want me out?ā you huffed āOkay, I see.ā
Jason couldnāt help but raise an eyebrow at your little act.
āDonāt put words in my mouthā he said, a bit amused. āI didnāt say I wanted you out, I just said that you couldāve waited instead of sneaking up on meā he replied.
Dick was watching the whole interaction and found it absolutely hilarious. He could clearly see that Jason was trying so hard to act like his usual grumpy self, but failing miserably.
Jason glanced over at Dick who was clearly trying to hold back another laugh. He was getting fed up with how amused he was getting by the whole situation.
He let out a small huff before looking back at you. āLook, youāre here already so you might as well just hang out with us until patrolās doneā he said.
You unfolded your arms āSweet.ā you moved to look at the city down below.
Jason kept his eyes on you as you walked closer to the edge.
He kept a close eye on you, as usual, making sure you didnāt accidentally do anything stupid.
Jason had no doubt that you were a great vigilante. He had seen firsthand how strong and smart you were during patrols.
But there was also another side of you that Jason adored just as much.
He loved watching you perform.
He didnāt know how you managed to perform in front of large crowds or how you were able to do it so confidently and effortlessly.
He couldnāt relate to that at all, he hated having the spotlight on him.
But you? You were completely in your element while you were on stage.
The bat-family was gathered together in the audience, watching as you performed on stage.
Steph and Duke were fangirling over you, while Babs and Cass were all smiles and singing along to the songs they knew. Tim was tapping along to the beat while Dick enthusiastically sang along to the lyrics.
Even Damian was somewhat enjoying the show, even if he was trying hard to hide it.
Jasonās eyes were still glued to you as you continued performing.
He felt a slight nudge and he glanced over at Dick.
āWhat?ā he grumbled.
āEarth to Jason,ā Dick said with a smirk. āYouāre completely drooling!ā
Jason quickly snapped out of it and realized heās been openly staring at you this whole time.
He felt his cheeks heat up as he quickly looked away.
āIām not droolingā he mumbled.
Dick heard this time and time again.
āYeah, and youāre not in love with her either, right?ā
Jason rolled his eyes and grumbled under his breath.
He knew Dick already knew about his feelings for you (almost everyone did), but he still hated dealing with his teasing. But at the same time he didnāt mind.
āShut up.ā he hissed.
You tapped your mic then strummed your guitar āOkay, I havenāt released this song on any platforms. But I figured Iām going to sing it here first before I release it.ā you told the crowd.
The crowd cheered as you announced a new unreleased song.
As you strummed your guitar, Jason recognized it a bit. As you sang, he definitely knew where this came from.
He knew this song, you had sung it to him before.
He felt his heart thump in his chest as he listened to you sing, singing the very same lyrics you sang to him in the privacy of your apartment.
Jason couldnāt believe you were actually singing the song you sung to him all those months ago.
The memory of your late night singing session in your apartment was still fresh in his mind. He could still recall the warm and intimate atmosphere, as you sang so softly just for him.
He couldnāt help but feel a flutter in his chest as he thought back to that moment.
As you stopped the song you smiled at the crowd. āUm, I wrote that for a friend.ā you nervously chuckled as you scan at the VIP area up above where the bat-family was.
The crowd cheered and applauded as you finished the song.
Jasonās heart beat faster as he heard you say it was written for a friend.
He knew damn well it was for him. You didnāt sing those lyrics for no reason.
The rest of the bat-family was glancing around at each other, clearly all knowing you were talking about Jason.
Dick was grinning widely, obviously enjoying Jasonās reactions.
Jason just sat silently, trying to maintain his stoic demeanor but failing miserably as his cheeks turned slightly red.
He could feel everyoneās eyes on him, and he knew they were all enjoying this moment a bit too much.
āWhat?ā He looked at his family.
His family members all had amused smiles on their faces.
Dick was still grinning, while Steph and Duke were both squealing loudly. Babs had a knowing smirk, and Damian even had a tiny bit of a smirk on his face.
āYeah, yeah laugh it upā he muttered, folding his arms and looking away.
The bat-family made their way backstage, eager to see you and congratulate you on your performance.
As they made their way deeper backstage, they eventually found you talking to the stage crew and the backup dancers.
As soon as you saw the bat-family approaching, you brightened up immediately.
You hugged all of them but noticed that Jason wasnāt there.
āWhereās Jay? you asked āIām right here,ā a voice said from behind you.
Jason suddenly appeared from behind you which made you jump a bit.
You turned your head with a smile and immediately pulled him in a hug.
His arms automatically wrapped around your back, pulling you closer to him.
He tried to play it cool and act nonchalant, but he couldnāt help the small smile that formed on his lips as he held you.
āAh- Jason, wait I canāt breathe!ā you wheezed.
Jason didnāt realize he was hugging you so tightly until you spoke up.
He immediately loosened his grip, but still held you close to him.
āSorryā he mumbled, feeling a bit embarrassed that he was getting so affectionate in front of his family.
You let go of his grasp and faced everyone āWhy donāt we all go eat somewhere?ā you said as you specifically eyed Bruce.
Bruce, on the other hand, let out a small sigh, realizing there was no way he could say no to you.
"Alright, where do you want to go?" he asked, everyone started brainstorming.
The bat-family members all started throwing out different ideas
āThai food..
āBurger place.ā
āItalian.ā
āPizza!ā
āSushi.ā
āSteak!ā
Jason stood silently, just watching his family members all debate where to eat.
Bruce pinched the bridge of his nose, clearly overwhelmed by the different suggestions.
āHow about we let Jason decide?ā Dick says.
Oh, great.
All eyes turn to Jason as they try to convince Jason to choose their option.
āJason say steak please.ā you pleaded.
Jason felt all eyes on him, everyone eager for him to make a decision.
He heard your pleading tone as you begged for him to choose steak, and the way you said his name sent a small flutter to his heart.
āSteakā he finally said, the word slipping out of his mouth without even thinking twice.
Everyone let out a mix of groans and cheers.
Bruce looked relieved that a decision had finally been made, while Damian just rolled his eyes.
āAll of you are like children.ā Damian says.
Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to Months.
Jason had come to look forward to your constant presence in his life. From your regular hangouts to your late night phone calls and everything in between, he craved it all.
Jason found it harder and harder to deny his feelings for you, but he still somehow managed to keep it under wraps.
He knew his family members were getting fed up with him holding back, especially Dick and Tim.
They both kept pestering him, saying how painfully obvious it was that he was completely smitten with you. But Jason just brushed them off, pretending like he didnāt know what they were talking about.
You were walking in the batcave then saw the three of them talking aboutā¦. you.
You hid behind a wall listening in.
āWhy canāt you just tell her?ā Tim asks as he crosses his arms.
Jason grumbled a bit as Tim asked him the same question again.
āBecause,ā he replied, āItās not that simple. Do you think dating a star is gonna be easy?ā
āYouāre just making excuses, Jayā Dick chimed in. āYou know they like you, so why are you holding back?ā
Jason grumbled, feeling frustrated as he knew he couldnāt deny what they were saying.
āI just canāt, okay?ā he snapped back. āItās not that easy to just confess to someone like them.ā
You felt your heart sink a bit as you heard Jason's words.
You couldn't help but wonder what he meant by that. Was the idea of confessing to you really something that he thought was so impossible?.
āWhy does it have to be so complicated?ā he asked. āYou like them, they like you. Itās not rocket science, just ask them out.ā
āItās not that simple,ā Jason mumbled, folding his arms. āTheyāre a star in the industry, they couldāve had anyone they wanted. Why the hell would they want me?ā
He felt like he wasnāt good enough for you, that he wasnāt worthy of your time and love. He was worried that his own issues and past baggage would only drag you down and make your life worse.
āI donāt want them to love me, Iām not someone worth wanting.ā Jason said.
Jasonās words were completely contradictory to his own thoughts and feelings.
Deep down, he knew that he desperately wanted your love and affection. He longed to be with you, to hold you, to love you.
But his own self-doubt and insecurity kept him from accepting or even acknowledging his own feelings.
His words punched you in the gut, your eyes clouded with pain as you clenched your fist.
Timās eyes widened as he saw you around the corner.
Both Jason and Dick turned around, following Tim's gaze and freezing as they saw you standing there.
Jason's face paled as he realized you had been eavesdropping on their conversation.
You were still reeling from what you had overheard, your heart aching at Jason's words about not wanting your love.
Feeling overwhelmed, you stormed out of the batcave, leaving the three men speechless and stunned.
Eventually, Jason snapped out of his frozen state and began running towards the entrance of the batcave.
Dick and Tim both watched him go, knowing that he was going after you.
Soon enough, he found you in the gardens outside the manor, sitting on a bench with your head buried in your hands.
He cleared his throat, trying to get your attention.
"Hey," he mumbled softly, taking a seat on the bench next to you.
āGah!ā you exclaimed, surprised by his presence.
Jason flinched as you exclaimed in surprise, not meaning to startle you so much.
āSorry.ā he apologized softly, awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck.
You looked at him then softened āItās okay.ā you said as you pulled your legs to your chest.
He knew it was his fault for making you feel like this, and he hated himself for it.
The two of you stayed silent for a while.
He knew it was his fault for making you feel like this, and he hated himself for it.
He took a deep breath, knowing he owed you an apology.
āListen, about what you overheard-ā he began.
āSo, everything I did was all just casual to you?ā you cut him off.
Jason looked taken aback by your question.
āNo, no, it wasnāt casualā he protested, shaking his head. āI genuinely enjoyed every moment I spent with you. You donāt have any idea how much I-ā he cut himself off, suddenly feeling too embarrassed to finish his sentence.
āJason, I tried to give away my schedule just to hang out with you. I wrote songs for you. I gave you presents just to show how much I care. I tried to show you that I loved you, but you wouldn't let me thatās why I didnāt say anything.ā you said
āBut, I wasnāt too sure if you actually didnāt want my love so I just waited till you said something.ā you looked at his gaze.
Jason was speechless as he listened to your words.
He felt a pang of guilt in his heart as he realized the extent to which you had gone to show him your feelings.
He had been so focused on hiding his own feelings that he hadn't been able to appreciate all the gestures and efforts you had made to show him how much you cared.
He stared back at your gaze, his expression unreadable.
āI know Iām affectionate to my friends, but itās different with you Jay.ā you looked away, staring at the red flowers in front of you.
āIf you want me to stop loving you just.. say the word.ā
Jason's heart skipped a beat as he listened to your words.
He knew he should say the word, should tell you to stop loving him. It would be the easy thing to do, the logical thing.
But the words just wouldnāt come out of his mouth.
"Iā¦. I can't," he said softly, his voice barely above a whisper. "I can't ask you to do that."
Your head turned to him āWhat?ā you blinked.
Jason avoided your gaze, feeling conflicted and vulnerable.
"I can't ask you to stop loving me... because I don't want you to," he admitted softly.
He knew he was risking everything by admitting his feelings like this, but he couldn't hold back anymore.
He took a deep breath, gathering all his courage to continue.
"The truth is, Iāve been a complete dumbass for months," he said, finally looking back at you.
"Every time you tried to show me how you felt, I just couldn't accept it. I was scared, okay? I didnāt think I was worth your time or your love. So I kept pushing you away, pretending like I didn't care."
For a moment, you just stared at him. Then you felt your body move towards him as your arms pulled him in a warm hug.
Jason was taken by surprise but he immediately wrapped his arms around you, squeezing you tight.
He buried his face in your shoulder, feeling an overwhelming mix of emotions.
All the tension and guilt he had felt for months slowly began to melt away as he held onto you.
"Iām sorry" he mumbled against your skin. "I'm sorry for being an idiot. For making you doubt how I feel about you."
Your hand slowly caressed his hair āItās okay, Iāll always forgive you either way.ā you softly replied, trying to soothe him.
He looked into your eyes, searching for any signs of doubt. But all he saw was sincerity and love.
A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips, and he felt a warmth spread throughout his chest.
Your hand moved up to cup his cheeks when you saw his smile āThereās my Jason.ā
He leaned into your touch, feeling a sense of comfort and peace wash over him. "Yeah, I'm still me," he said softly, his eyes locked with yours.
He gently placed his hand over yours, holding it against his face, feeling the warmth from your touch.
"I'm sorry for being such a dumbass," he mumbled, feeling overwhelmed with emotion. "I won't push you away again, I promise."
"I just.... Iām not good at talking about my feelings, y'know?" he added, "But I'll try, for you. Iāll try my best to show you how much you mean to me."
Your expression softens āAnd Iāll give you everything I have.ā
Jason felt his heart melt as your expression softened and you spoke those words.
He felt undeserving, but at the same time, he couldnāt help but believe you.
He leaned his forehead against yours, "You already have my everything," he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.
Jason's lips met yours in a soft, gentle kiss.
When he started dating you, he felt more at peace.
Though he often hung out with you, this was different. Everything felt so intimate and lovely.
Heās usually composed, that is until he touches you and he can't pretend he loses himself again.
You made him a sappy, stupid something out of him. The kind he swore heāll never be. He feels awake inside a dream.
Jason couldnāt believe the effect you had on him. He had never thought he could feel this way about someone, so vulnerable and exposed.
He used to pride himself on his stoicism, his ability to maintain control. But when he was with you, all of that went out the window.
He found himself craving your touch, your attention, your love. He was like a man possessed, completely bewitched by you.
But Jason especially loved your voice, he could listen to you sing for hours on end.
There was something about the way you sang that captivated him. Your voice, your expression, the way you poured your heart and soul into every lyric.
He loved watching you perform on stage, seeing you shine and shine, but he had to admit that he loved it even more when you sang for him alone.
Those moments, when it was just the two of you, felt like a secret little world that only they shared.
He loved how, after each and every song, you would turn to him with a smile, seeking his approval and praise.
He would shower you with compliments and applause, telling you how beautiful you sounded and how privileged he felt to be the one to witness your talent.
But sometimes, he preferred to show you how he felt. He would pull you into his arms, holding you close and kissing you deeply, hoping to convey all his appreciation and love through his actions.
He wanted to do more than just say it. He wanted to show you how much he loved hearing you sing.
He would pull you into his arms, holding you tightly against his chest, his head resting on your shoulder.
"Sing for me again," heād murmur, his lips pressing against your neck.
Jason was not one to broadcast his relationship with you to the world.
He liked to keep things between the two of you as private as possible.
He was protective and territorial, and didnāt like the idea of other people knowing intimate details about his life, especially when it came to you.
Your life was constantly put under a microscope, with fans and paparazzi following your every move.
You didn't want that kind of attention to affect your relationship with Jason.
You wanted to keep him away from the public eye, to protect him from the spotlight and the scrutiny that came with it.
But that didn't stop you from longing to tell people that he was yours.
Jason would often feel embarrassed when you would brag about him to the bat-fam or your friends.
He wasn't used to being talked about in that way, and he didn't like being the center of attention.
He would often stand there, trying his best to keep a straight face, while secretly enjoying hearing you talk about how awesome and amazing he was.
The bat-fam found it all too easy to tease Jason, and they often did so, much to his annoyance.
However, they quickly discovered that it was practically impossible to tease you.
You rarely got flustered or fazed by their taunts, and it drove them insane.
Jason would sit back and watch, feeling a mix of admiration and amusement as you effortlessly shut down any attempts to poke fun at you.
Jason's eyes eventually settled on the shelves, where a collection of vinyl records were neatly displayed.
He walked over, taking a closer look at the records. Some of them were of your own albums, but there were also records from other artists that you seemed to enjoy.
He picked up one of your albums, admiring the cover and running his fingers over the title.
As Jason browsed through your collection, he noticed the wide range of genres.
There was pop, rock, jazz, R&B, country, even classical. It was clear that you had a taste for variety.
He picked up a jazz record and held it up "Who knew you were such a fan of jazz?"
You were sitting in an armchair, your guitar on your lap as you strummed a soft melody.
You looked up as Jason spoke, a small smile playing at your lips.
"You donāt know this but Iām a sucker for Jazz.ā you replied.
He let out a soft scoff at your response. "Iām learning more and more about you every day," he said.
āThe more you know.ā you said, taking the record from him.
Jason watched as you took the record from him and opened your record player, placing the vinyl on it.
The music filled the room, a smooth and sultry jazz melody that oozed with elegance and charm.
You turned back at him, then you had an idea āHey, dance with me.ā you offered your hand.
He took your hand, intertwining his fingers with yours, a smile playing at his lips. "Alright, I'll dance with you.ā
Jason treasured every single moment he spent with you.
He adored the way you held his hand, the way you looked at him with those sparkling eyes, the way your laughter would ring out like music to his ears.
He loved the way you would pull him close, the way you would sing for him, the way you would kiss him as if you couldnāt get enough of him.
And in those moments, everything else faded away. There was only you, and him, and the love they shared. He was bewitched.

Batfam members and what theyād get cancelled for/their apology
Just watched ItalianBachās youtuber apology tier list video and inspiration STRUCK.
š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹š¦¹
Bruce: there are SOOOOOO many things. So so so many things. He has been cancelled so many times that there is a blog dedicated to keeping track of BW apologies. the user is probs something like bruceissosorryagain. Personal favorite was when he ruined a pretty popular and well liked socialite by knocking over a champagne tower directly onto her great grandmotherās wedding gown. For some god foresaken reason the champagne had been dyed red to match the victorian vampire aesthetic of the wedding?? The hashtag āBWmeetscarrieā will forever haunt wayne manor.
Dick: He was literally a cop in 2020. his goose was GOT. He was trying to prove that not all cops are bad by posting to that macklemore song with the little black fist painted on his cheek and BLM on the other. u know the one. It didnāt go over very well. Even macklemore commented ācāmon bro..ā This was followed by a 45 minute long apology video explaining how he now understands the harm it can cause to lump all marginalized groups into one category and how he regrets his action severely and yada yada yada hes so sorry, at the end there was a 2 minute long acrobatic performance to the song Nina Cried Power by Hozier. He also donated to several black charities following the whole ordeal. Didnāt leave his house for a week.
Jason: Ran a rage bait account on tiktok when he was like 13-15 where he posted cringe alpha sigma male mogging content, and someone somehow found out it was him, and his apology wasnāt so much an apology as much as it was āIām sorry you were stupid enough to believe the bs I was posting, and Iām sorry i got caught. Fuck you guys btw now I have to find a new hobby šš½.ā The videos are still saved to his phone when he needs a good chuckle.
Tim: Said BTS was ass and BP was even worse (he tweeted it out of boredom, knowing it was gonna be bad, but not knowing exactly how bad). Armies and blinks tried to dox him MUTIPLE times but tim keeps it on lock so his info was safe. There was a boycott for WE so Bruce made him post and official apology. It was half assed and there are kpop accounts to this day that say āFuck tim drakeā in their bio. Either that or he got ācancelledā on some Jynxzi stuff. Like the whole situation to a T. Maybe both are true. He also had a ukelele in his apology vid.
Damian: called an old lady a āstupid ugly stinky bitchā on national television because she āasked father too many questions.ā (it was an interview) Jaws were dropped. Nay, jaws were dislocated. Damian was too young at the time to have social media, let alone post his own apology, so bruce did it for him and sent that poor old lady a lot of cash.
Duke: Unironically said āif itās snowing Iām not going.ā the dudebros thought that shit was hilarious. No one else laughed. Duke was serious, but he felt so bad about offending people that there were tears in the apology. At least thats the story heās currently running with.
Cass: A video of her saying the F slur surfaced. Her apology was her coming out.
Steph: Said something offensive without realizing it and didnt know what she did until she tweeted saying āwhy is everyone being so wierd around me?? did I do something wrong??ā everyones response is either āgirl please bffrā or genuine actually helpful input. She apologized less than a day later in a quick and concise apology vid.
Barbara: compared herself to marsha P johnson in an interview and when she was asked to elaborate she simply could not. The truth is, she had no idea who that woman was other than the fact that she was a good, cool woman so she was like yea omg im so her. Her apology was also a mini documentary about Marsha P Johnsons life.
#ooc?#i think some of these count as ooc#i think some are canon#you pick#batfam#ofc vi writes too#bruce waybe#dick grayson#jason todd#tim drake#damian wayne#duke thomas#cassandra cain#stephanie brown#barbara gordon#cancelled#apology video#headcanon

1967 and 2012; photos by Michael Ochs Archives and Leigh-Anne Dennison.
By popular demand, a comprehensive collection of Peter and Michael quotes:
KDWB radio, August 1967
āMichael used to run a hootenanny at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, and so I met him there. But thatās all, just to say hi to, pretty much.ā - Peter Tork, GOLD 104.5, 1999
āI have a great deal of respect for Mike as a musician and a songwriter. Heās very good. He could make it on his own easily. Also heās one of the funniest people Iāve ever met.ā - Peter Tork, Flip, August 1967
āMikeās a song writer, one of the best in the country.ā - Peter Tork, The San Francisco Examiner, November 23, 1968
āI remember staying at Mikeās house in Hollywood when we first started filming the series. It was the upper story of a two-story building on a little hillside. Mikeās wife, Phyllis, was wonderful. Mike and I laughed a lot and played music together. I remember that time very fondly.ā - Peter Tork, When The Music Mattered (1984)
āMichael was very kind to me at the outset. He put me up through the entire shooting of the pilot process. He and his wife had a wonderful little apartment just big enough for a guest on the day bed, which overlooked Hollywood. I remember a Thanksgiving Day when the air was crystal clear in a way that Iāve never seen it before or since in L.A., and you could see all the way out to Catalina. It was wonderful. That crystal clarity symbolizes the whole era for me. Mike and I wrote a few things together. We were very comradely and very buddy buddy, and it was a wonderful time, with Mikeās then wife, Phyllis, and Christian, their little infant baby. The early days of the pilot shooting were just great by my lights and I had a wonderful time.ā - Peter Tork, quoted in Hey, Hey, Weāre The Monkees (1996)
āAfter [Peter] went down for the first interview, I asked how how he felt he did and he said, āWell, it looks good. Iāll see how things go.ā And they kept calling him back. He liked Michael Nesmith. That was the first thing that happened.ā - Stephen Stills, Tiger Beat, July 1967
(Please read the following quote with a grain of salt. While the author, Glenn A. Baker, interviewed Boyce, among other people, for this book, Boyceās recollection isnāt, to the best of my knowledge and research, verified by a second first-hand account.)
āI did give Peter a voice audition on Saturdayās Child but I had to finally say, ālook Pete, I canāt play banjo and you canāt sing. If I played the banjo Iād sound like you singing, I have to erase the tape.ā So Peter left in a huff and came back with Michael, who pulled off his motorcycle helmet, crashed it down onto the console and demanded āwhy donāt you let Peter sing? You guys never let us come to the sessions, itās just you two with Davy and Micky.ā So I said āwell thatās the way it should have been in the first place Michael, you know what I mean? You should have stayed with the Randy Sparks Trio.ā In the end we let him do a couple of tracks on his own just to calm the situation down a little.ā - Tommy Boyce, Monkeemania: The True Story of The Monkees (1997)
āWhen I heard that frail banjo over the top of my 12-string [on 'You Told Me'], I thought, āBoy, this is good. This is really, really good.āā - Michael Nesmith, YouTube, 2019
āAt the Troubadour [ā¦], Peter Tork strolled in, banjo on his knee. Later, in-between āAlvinā and a great banjo finger-picker, Peter yelled a hello to Mike Nesmith, who was standing in the upstairs darkness and the two fell into a hilarious patter routine. Peter climbed out long enough to display great talent, great warmth, great humor and, in general, a great personality. Mike did the same when, later, I asked him how the album was coming. āAlbum? Oh, Uh huh. Nice weather, yes? Albumās gonna be good. How are you. Hi, Pete, howās the album?āā - Ginni Ganahal, TeenSet Magazine, February 1968
Q: āBeing that your tastes were similar, and you both were the first to leave the group, why didnāt you form a group with Peter Tork?ā Michael Nesmith: āI donāt like Peter Tork ā never have liked him, I donāt like him as a man. I have to qualify that now: Me not liking somebody doesnāt mean that theyāre bad people ā he could do a lot of wonderful things for and to me. Not liking someone to me is a very gut reaction ā a very visceral attitude. The first reaction to Peter was one of dislike. I donāt like him, I have never liked him, and I probably will never like him. I didnāt enjoy playing in a band with Peter, and I still donāt. Our tastes were much the same, our political beliefs were similar, our ideas of fun, pleasure, our intellectual capacity, our ability to talk to each other ā we were very much alike. I have a great respect for Peter ā his technical abilities on an instrument and the positions he took were well conceived ideas, always a posture with a motive, never emotional. I donāt like my mother. She happens to be a very nice lady ā never done anything that would make me not like her ā but I donāt. I like my wife.ā - Hit Parader, February 1972ā - Hit Parader, February 1972
āThereās one song ['Come On In'] that Peter Tork sings on that Missing Links album where he sounds absolutely super. He sounds great; heās right on the button. Sings it good and he wasnāt supposed to be a singer. The other guys were always pushing him out and Mike Nesmith was always sort of like threatening him, putting his fist through the wall doing all this kind of shit. Iām sure Peter could kick his ass if he wanted to, but he never did. Unbelievable.ā - Davy Jones, The Monkees Day By Day
Q: āAre you thinking about doing any recording in the near future? An album, perhaps?ā Peter Tork: āIād like to. I havenāt got any way of getting started. If you look around, youāll see that youāre not exactly sitting in the luxurious mansion that someday who went through the money I did would be expected to be living in. As a matter of fact, Iām living pretty close to the bone right now. Iāve got my picture out in the Hollywood circles, and Iām getting some gigs. Iām thinking about doing some commercials. If I ever get enough money together, Iām going to go into the studio and make enough demos to get an album made. Iāve got some new material Iāve written, like āLadiesā [sic] Baby,ā which would make a good album cut. If worse comes to worst, Iāll just make an album myself.ā Q: āHave you considered Michael Nesmithās Pacific Arts label? Your bass and his lead guitar supplemented one another superbly.ā PT: āMichael at that time was somewhat of a reticent fellow. He had a hard time giving anything away, in terms of praise. Heās changed a lot. Before the transformation, he was a pretty begrudging fellow. He was not given to compliments. I have not come to know him very well since his transformation. I was thinking about getting him involved. If I have anything to show him, Iāll definitely get it to him. I hope heās interested.ā - Blitz!, May/June 1980
āWell, I have only the vaguest memory of coming close to recording for Michaelās label. I actually believe that nothing whatever was ever done. Iām not even sure I laid down a single track. Your letter reminds me that there was some indication of a potential project, but I think thatās about as far as it went. I have no direct info about Geffenās dumping Michaelās label. He himself might be a better source. Check out his website, videoranch.com. Thanks for asking. Take care. Peterā - Ask Peter Tork, The Daily Panic, 2008
āMichaelās in a force field of his own and not much gets in there.ā - Peter Tork, TV Guide, June 2000
āI still have a lot of respect for Michael.ā - Peter Tork, WDBB, February 2006
"I have a lot of respect for Mike Nesmith and weāve structured ways to work together." - Peter Tork, Phawker, circa 2012; re-published 2019
āYou shouldāve heard Mike singing some of those old Jimmie Rodgers The Singing Brakeman songs. He was so good, that stuff was just ā you know, that stuff just warmed the cockles of my heart, you know. He could just do that stuff all day long. Just ā I could just sit at his feet and listen to that for hours.ā - Peter Tork, WHNN-FM, 2012
āWell, Iāve never been really close with Michael [Nesmith] for some reason. You know, I have a lot of respect for him and admiration. But somehow weāve never integrated. Weāve never been warm with each other. We worked together and did pretty well at it really." - Peter Tork, Clevescene, March 13, 2017
āThere are two common and, to me, repugnant notions about the Monkees. Number one, that I was the only one who had any talent, which is patently absurd. Itās as unfair and as unkind as it is stupid. The other one is that I was the only musician. I wasnāt the only musician and I wasnāt much of a musician. Peter was a much more skillful player than I was by some orders of magnitude. He wasnāt a singer nor was he a writer. What I was able to do was write tunes ā I could sort of pull those out of a ht. But they werenāt very good, were they? I mean, they were the tunes that were on the show from time to time, so thatās what made the, seem better than they were.ā - Michael Nesmith, Monkees Tale (1985)
āEveryone was accomplishedāthe notion I was the only musician is one of those rumors that got started and wonāt stopābut it was not true. Peter was a more accomplished player than I by an order of magnitude, Micky and Davy played and sang and danced and understood music.ā - Michael Nesmith, Rolling Stone, March 8, 2012
"There really couldn't be two more incompatible characters. Mike is pragmatic, Peter is ethereal. Peter is laid-back, Mike is impatient. Mike is oil, Peter is water." - Micky Dolenz, I'm A Believer: My Life of Monkees, Music, and Madness (1993)
"I will miss him ā a brother in arms. Take flight my Brother." - Michael Nesmith, Facebook, February 2019 Q: "You were talking to the press in Australia a few months back and you said something about Peter Tork that surprised a lot of fans. You said, 'I never liked Peter and Peter never liked me.' Iād never heard that before." Michael Nesmith: "It was something that was known on the set [of the Monkeesā TV show]. They knew Pete and I went our own ways. This wasnāt a dislike of someone who had committed some infraction against me or some sort of crime. It was just, 'Oh, this guy eats those little noodles and I donāt like āem and I canāt eat with the guy.' It was kind of an off-putting thing. It was, 'Oh, he likes to play paintball and I donāt like to play paintball.' So we never played paintball, but every once in a while weād find ourselves in the same paintball park because we owned it, so we had to keep it clean and do all the stuff we had to do and we did do it. We didnāt have too many civil words to say to each other, but we also didnāt fight all the time. We just didnāt say much. There wasnāt a lot to say. Peter would play me the songs that he thought were good and I didnāt. And I would play him the songs I thought were good and he wouldnāt. Then we just left it at that. Partners in silence." - Rolling Stone, December 3, 2019

So ever since Mastermind, Iāve been seeing the expected number of āWhat if Lucifer or Charlie was present at the trial?ā fics/headcanons positing that either of their presence would have had them speak out on Blitzoās and/or Stolasā behalf and led to the PERFECT ending where the evil schemes of Andy-the-not-actually-a-sister-fucker are foiled and both Blitzo and Stolas are acquitted and itās all sunshine and rainbows and puppies for everyone (except those evil rich people (except the ones we like)). And like, thatās all well and goodā¦
But letās be real. Even with a deck not massively stacked against them, or even stacked in their favor, both Blitzo and/or Stolas could ABSOLUTELY still find a way to fuck things up for themselves. I mean weāre talking about one guy who opened his defense with āThose orphans were already sick!ā and āBut when is attempting a crime a crime?ā, and the other guy for whom āthrowing my life away in a big dramatic heroic sacrifice for the man I loveā was Plan A.
And I just think that sounds way more fun and interesting then Lucifer or Charlie being some author-insert to serve as a secret cheat-code for the Golden Happy Ending for the episode.
Sure, Lucifer or Charlie being present almost certainly means things would go better for Blitzo, Stolas and co. regardless, but again I feel like itās just way more interesting and fun and honestly in-character for these two gay idiots to still find a way to fuck things up for themselves.
Like imagine if Lucifer wants to hear Blitzo out at the critical vote, not so much because he really gives a fuck, but more because heās bored and is also just messing with Satan.
And throughout the rest of the trial Lucifer is mostly just dicking around being a bored little gremlin. With the his only real contribution being to veto outright executing Blitzo, and even then thatās only thanks to Blitzo mentioning that Loona is his daughter. Sure, he may barely give a fuck at this point, but having a man killed in front of his own daughter? Thatās pretty fucked up, donāt you think?
Which probably leads to some petty bickering between Lucifer and Satan about why they canāt just send Loona out of the room and THEN kill Blitzo, which then probably escalates/tangents to some āpetty, jilted exāsā-esque arguing that may or may not have some of the other Sins piping in for shits and giggles that is really only stopped when Stolas bursts in with his big ādramatic, gay heroic sacrifice via song-numberā gambit.
And Lucifer is in fact totally okay with Stolas getting stripped of his power and position, because hey he did a whole song number for it, but he draws the line at Stolas getting separated from his daughter. Also Andrealphus doesnāt get to be regent of Stolasās position because Lucifer doesnāt like him for extremely petty reasons.
Meanwhile, I feel like Charlie sitting in for her dad probably wouldnāt turn out much better.
Sure, Charlie would want to hear Blitzo out, and ABSOLUTELY give a fuck about his situation. But letās not forget that this is BLITZO weāre talking about, and giving him a chance to talk is ALSO giving him a chance to dig himself into a deeper hole.
For example; what do think Charlieās reaction is going to be to learning what Blitzo and co. were actually DOING with that grimoire they got from Stolas?
You know, the princess of Hell whoās trying to deal with the sinner-overpopulation problem learning that these imps are likely contributing to said overpopulation problem? As well as the whole āmurder businessā thing.
Which would likely put Blitzo in the awkward and hilarious position of probably having to argue AGAINST the person arguing for his life because that person ALSO wants to shut down his business.
And of course because this is Blitzo weāre talking about, there is a VERY good chance he just makes a total ass of himself or at the very least puts his foot in his mouth in epic fashion.
And if sheās present, I can imagine Vaggie at some point is leaning over to quietly ask Charlie if they really NEED to be defending this guy?
Maybe this eventually leads to Blitzo, or Stolas or perhaps Moxxie making some big, dramatic, emotional, heartfelt plea, possibly in musical form, for them to be allowed to continue their wholesome family businessā¦ of murdering people.
And maybe that does in fact sway Charlie. Or at least tugs on her heartstrings enough to forget about the whole āmurdering businessā thing long enough to argue for Blitzoās life without pushing to shut down I.M.P.
Which is exactly when, again, Stolas chooses to burst in with his big self-sacrificial song number and make things even worse/wackier.
All in all, as much as people may love their āhereās how we could/should have gotten a perfect happy ending!ā author-tracts, I think this option is way more in-character, interesting and most importantly fun XD
#helluva boss#hazbin hotel#helluva what if#lucifer morningstar#charlie morningstar#helluva satan#helluva blitzo#blitzo buckzo#stolas goetia#helluva mastermind#i think people are really forgetting blitzo's and stolas's propensity for being massive fuckups#i think this is a lot more funny XD#might have to write a fic on one of these ideas...#clearing out my pre-sinsmas wip backlog

Sparkstember Day 10: Whomp That Sucker (Where's My Girl)
A good time!!! That's the first thing I associate with this album. It's one of the earlier ones I've heard too and I was certainly a big fan of it from the very start. Not only that, but I think it was a bit of a groundbreaking point in my experience as a new Sparks fan, since I was trying to figure out where to go next and this was a good plunge somewhere in the midst of it all that proved that no matter where you go, you're going to get something special! And after a couple more months (I mean, it's been a bit over a year since that first listen already! How time flies) it still holds up in my personal rankings. Soooo well. Definitely very special to me!
I think it's safe to say by now that between the pair of Whomp and Angst I'll always stay partial to Whomp. The latter seems to be much more popular among fans, and I can understand that, but something about Whomp speaks to me much more. Both are fun, energetic new-wavey albums, still in the realm of rock but with some cool use of synths that would soon become even more important and a core element of the music. Still though, I think Whomp is more PURE fun - between many hilarious lyrics and the overall playful and lighthearted nature of it, I don't think it's possible to listen to this one and not feel even a little bit happier afterwards.
I especially love the whole atmosphere of it, what I call the spacey / sparkly synth, that gives it a little bit of an outer space feel, much moreso than the actual album called In Outer Space (but i'd better not get ahead of myself yet when it comes to that one, lol). This album really feels sparkly and even glittery to me in a weird way, and unexplainably, this all reminds me of like, sweets and chocolates like those cosmic brownies or daim candy?? That's what this album would taste like to me! Sweet and a little extra and always a good little treat. Damn, and now I want to try a cosmic brownie.
Favourite songs (and other highlights):
I don't even have that many personal favourites from this album even though I really really love it as a whole!! I guess it's a bit of a Propaganda situation, where there isn't that many super big standouts compared to the rest of the tracks, they're all just very cool and I mostly don't have that much to say about them individually, they're all just!! So fun!! (I mean, ok, Suzie Safety might be the only one here that I don't care about all that much. I'm sorry, Suzie.) So this is more of a Moments list than anything
I Married A Martian: mostly I'm just incredibly charmed by the story here
Where's My Girl: AARGHHH!!! WAAUUGHGH!!! I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! SO MUCH!!!! The closest I can come to describing the feeling here is something like... song you heard a couple times when you were very young, enough that you remember how it goes when you hear it again, but can't recall it on the spot otherwise, and you forget about the song's existence until you hear it again after all those years and are hit by the biggest wave of nostalgia and longing for the past that you've ever experienced in your life. All that despite me never hearing this song until last year. Or is there just something I'm not aware of... Anyway, this was one of those rare and treasured moments of THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!! *MY* MUSIC!! Needless to say, this song stayed on repeat countless of times and I will never get over how awesome this guitar solo is. And again, the spacey synth!!
Upstairs: upstAAAAAAirs!!! upstAAAAAAirs!!!
Don't Shoot Me: big fan of the whole thing but I'm especially charmed by the little high-pitched "shoot!"s and such in the background, and "WHO'S HEEE???"
The Willys: the song itself isn't even my fav but the PHYSICALLY! MENTALLY! MORALLY! part is always very chuckle-worthy. That's the wondrous humour I'm talking about here
That's Not Nastassia: Sparks songs with uncomfortably long endings my beloved... can also be pretty hilarious under the right circumstances (like listening to the vinyl of this album with my dad and watching his reaction). And can't forget how cool the transition into the last song is
#sorry for the legth of this post. it will most definitely happen again#ok i can't even tell if it's that much longer than the rest. sorry either way#(for the length of them all. they WILL get longer still. that i'm sure of)#i actually scrapped the previous sketch for today last minute because i felt like something was off about it!!#and i wanted something cooler for one of my favourite songs and albums#so i experimented a bit with more detail and a ton of filters on the layers in this one#and i probably won't go that extra for any future drawings lol#a bit too demanding to me still at this moment. i don't want to die from too much screentime doing this#sparkstember 2024#my art#goose monologues

Title
ehehehe first fic im writing after what feels like a year or two or a billion. But im actually feeling it rn so im gonna give it a shot. AND PLS FORGIVE ME FOR BAD WRITING IM SO RUSTY RIGHT NOW IM TRYINT TO GET THR HANG OF IT
So a few headcanons I used for this fic before we get into it:
Whenever the Arataki gang is in jail for some stupid as ever thing, Shinobu gets a bit antsy after a while cause sheās the type of person to always need something to do. Not doing anything makes her a bit anxious
Heizou is very good at reading peopleās emotions but thatās probably canon enough
Shinobu knows a way to make a functioning bracelet out of like 4 naku weed stems somehow
So um aha no idea how to format so Iāll try my best
And also a warning for some swear words, I also hc Shinobu swears at her ler while getting wrecked
Lee: Kuki Shinobu
Ler: Shikanoin Heizou
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
God the day Heizou had today was surely a good one.
He returned to the police station after a day of substantial progress on his investigation into a new case to hear what sounded like a chorus of angels (and a few devils) breaking out in song.
Heizouās immediate thought was āWhat in Celestia is going onā, as would anyone else think if they were in his current predicament.
He figured out pretty quickly that the culprits for this outcry of song were none other than the one and only Arataki Itto and his buddies, Mamoru, Genta, and Akira. Having been arrested for ādisturbing the peaceā (having a whole karaoke session right in front of komore tea house and actively inviting any passerby to join them), they decided to take theirā¦passion, for karaoke to their prison cells and somehow managed to get some of the other inmates to sing along.
It was pretty hilarious, to say the least. It took almost all of Heizouās willpower to not to burst out laughing as his fellow officers attempted to get the situation under control.
āIāve got to tell Shinobu about thisā
So now here he was, walking through hanamizaka, looking for the places Shinobu can commonly be found. Something was off thoughā¦
Sheās not here.
āThatās troublingā¦ā Heizou thought. āWhere could she be, if not here? Definitely not any shrines, maybe at a shop? Or perhaps the by the sea!ā
Heizou began to walk in the direction of the shore. It wasnāt the most logical place to look next, but something was telling him heād get lucky there.
āHey, Shinobu!ā
He called out to the green haired girl sitting in front of the sea next to a maroon drawstring bag. She held her mask to her face, but lowered it once she saw who called out to her.
āOh, hey.ā
āMy intuition told me I might find you here. Iāve got to tell you about what happened today at the-ā¦hey are you okay?ā
Heizou paused mid sentence after taking a closer look at Shinobu. She was making bracelets out of naku weed and sango pearls, but something was wrong. Her back was unusually straight, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, her movements on the bracelet were sharper than needed, and she was switching sitting positions in the sand like twice a minute. She seemedā¦bored. Restless. Anxious.
āYeah, Iām fine, why?ā
āIām here to talk if you need. Somethings wrong.ā Heizou said, sitting down next to her.
Shinobu sighed and looked back down at the bracelet she had just finished making.
āNothing crazy serious, I guess Iāve just been bored. Iāve done all I needed to do today, but the idea of doing nothing is just uncomfortableā¦Itās weird. Iām always cleaning up after the gangās messes, but now..ā
āYou donāt know what to do now since there arenāt any messes to clean.ā He finished for her.
āYeah, pretty much. Gotta keep myself busy.ā
āI take it thatās why youāre making bracelets by the sea?ā
āIāve got nothing better to do, so yeah. Just a hobby to pass the time.ā
āTheyāre beautiful.ā
Shinobu smiled. She looked back up at Heizou to find him marveling at the one currently in her hand. Little sango pearls were intertwined in a wreath of naku weeds. Sheād been wanting to make bracelets with them ever since she picked some up during Bossās rock and roll event at watatsumi island.
āYou want one?ā
āOnly if there are extras.ā
She opened the bag next to her to reveal she had made quite the supply of bracelets already.
āWoahā¦youāve been here a while, I see.ā
āHeh, yeah. By the sea is a nice place to be.ā
āThat rhymed.ā
āThank you.ā
They sat in silence for a little longer, admiring the coming sunset before Heizou spoke up again.
āI also noticed you arenāt wearing your mask at the moment.ā
āI felt like breathing the air by the ocean a little better. It helps when you need calming down. And I donāt have to keep the mask on if itās just you here, you know who I am.ā
āI guess thatās true. Still, itās not often I get to see you without it.ā
āEnjoy it while it lasts.ā Shinobu said, already almost done with her next bracelet. āThis one is gonna be yours.ā
āOoh, really? Itās an honor to watch the craftsman work.ā He said peering excitedly at his future bracelet in-the-making.
She finished up quickly and handed it to him.
āI added an extra sango pearl, cause youāre one of my best friends.ā
āAwww, really? That means so much, Shinobu, thank you.ā Heizou said, his expression softening greatly. He looked like this emoji š„ŗ.
āY-yeah..ā Shinobu mumbled, averting her eyes.
āAww, are you blushing?ā He teased, moving a little closer to get a better look.
āNo! And stop awwing at me!ā She hid her face, preventing him from getting that better look.
Heizou pouted. āShinobu come onnn, I never get to see your face! Especially not your blushing one, you canāt deny me this opportunity.ā
āShut up. Youāve seen me blush before anywayā¦ā
āBut not without the mask! Pleaseee?ā
āI would rather plunge in the sea in front of us.ā
Yeah, she wonāt budge. Heizou has to use his secret weapon now.
From where he was sitting next to her, he wrapped his arms around her in a hug and looked up at her with puppy eyes.
āPleaseeee?ā
āH-hey! Careful! Iām not even gonna look at you.ā She said, flinching first at the sudden contact but still keeping her face hidden with her hands and knees.
āHm, ācarefulā, you say?ā
The silence was loud. She couldnāt see his face, but she knew exactly what expression he had on.
āWipe that smirk off your face off your face, and donāt even think about it.ā
Heizou giggled mischievously. One because he did in fact have a smirk on his face, and two because he now had a new idea. An idea to get her to finally show her face, and you know, maybe help her feel a little better.
āCareful? Careful with what?ā He said, lightly tapping at her sides. Nothing unbearable, but still getting a reaction.
āHeizou, noho! Iāll kill you! Donāt even try!ā
āThreatening a detective with murder now, huh? I thought we were best friends, Shinobu.ā He said sarcastically, glancing at his new bracelet on his wrist.
Shinobu tried desperately to squirm out of his hold. It was over for her if he went through with this, sheāll never hear the end of it.
āI personally canāt believe I didnāt think of how ticklish you can be earlier!ā
āHeizou I swehehearā¦ā
āOh, this is good for me. Now Iāll get to see your blushing face and your laughing face without the mask at the same time!ā Heizou said, picking up the pace and now scribbling his fingers at her sides.ā
āNoho you wohohohont! Heheizohou!!ā She giggled, her hands instinctively grabbing his wrists. However, unfortunately, due to his place behind her, she had much less leverage and it was quite futile.
āYouāre suhuhuch a piehece of shihihit! AHAha-!! Asshohole!ā At her remark he gave her a quick tase to the side, clearly elevating her reaction.
āNow thatās no way to talk to one of your best friends.ā
āShhuhut the fuck uhuhup!! Youāre nohohot my behehest friehehend, dickhead!ā She retorted, squirming in any way she could to not show him her face in this state.
āReally? I guess that extra pearl was a mistake thenā¦Iām hurt Shinobu, really.ā Heizou said, not hurt at all. He knows she doesnāt mean it at all, hell heāll yell similar things when heās on the receiving end too. That still doesnāt mean heāll have mercy just yet, however. He moved one hand up by her ribs, the other hand down by her stomach, and dug in. Not too much pressure, but just enough.
āHeheHEHEY!!ā Shinobu laughed. Now he was currently attacking two of her bad spots at the same time, and she knew that he damn well knew what he was doing too.
āHEIZOHOUU!ā
āShinobuuu!ā
She continued to giggle brightly, not caring about hiding her face anymore and instead kicking her legs and thrashing around (adorably by the way) and doing whatever she could to escape.
Since hiding her face was no longer Shinobuās top priority, Heizou had no problem finally seeing her laughing/blushing face without a mask.
āAww, I see you now~ā He teased, grinning down at her wide smile. He began to slow down, having got what he wanted and not wanting her revenge to be too devastating.
āAhahrehe you happy?ā
āVery happy.ā
āGreheheat, you can stohohop.ā
Taking her for her word that sheās had enough, he finally stopped his attack on her midsection and let her breathe as she slumped on his shoulder.
āAsshole.ā
āYou know it was fun.ā
āYouāre still an asshole.ā
āCome on, look how relaxed you are now. Much better than how I found you earlier. Oh right, speaking of, I was gonna tell you-ā
āApapap, wait one second.ā Shinobu interrupted. āI just want you to know Iāll get you back for your cruelty today, when you least expect it. Could be in a few seconds, could be in a few days. Your intuition wonāt be able to save you, detective.ā
It was Heizouās turn to be nervous. Maybe not nervous, actually, more like excited. Anticipation always made things more fun! Not that heād admit it in this moment.
āMmmmā¦o-okayā¦ā He shrank in on himself while Shinobu sat next to him, her eyes hungry to see him in her same position. It always amazed him how easily she could bounce back from getting tickle attacked.
āA-anyway, the four of them in their cells-ā He continued, making the most of the time he has left before his inevitable doom.
Heizou shared the story of how the gang managed to get fellow inmates singing along with them in prison, and they discussed various Arataki gang stories until the sun set.
And yes, Shinobu did eventually get him back.
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā

what i think the marauders favourite tv show would be - based on my favs :)
james - stranger things. heād watch it because everyone was raving about it and then become emotionally invested in the characters. he thinks the concept of the monsters is really cool but also very terrifying. heād definitely make everyone else watch it too, and heād be mouthing along the lines while they did. his favourite character would be steve harrington, because i think theyāre pretty similar. the episode heād like the most would be s4 ep6.
regulus - the rain on netflix. itās a kinda disturbing show about an apocalyptic world where the rain literally kills you if it touches you and thereās a whole thing with sibling betrayal and i just feel like heād eat it up. his favourite character would be lea or kira. he would really love dystopian and apocalyptic shows in general tbh. his favourite episode would be the cult one, because it explores religion in an apocalyptic world.
sirius - greys anatomy. iāve said this before but he would secretly LOVE greys, even if he wonāt admit it. his favourite character is addison montgomery, closely followed by mark sloan. the episode he likes the most is the musical episode but if you ask him, he hates it. also he would so do the superhero pose amelia shepherd does before her surgeries before he does anything important.
remus - the society. itās a dark, weird and kinda obscure show that only had one season because of covid but heād love it. heād bring it up in conversation with everyone and ask them what theyād do if all adults suddenly disappeared, which would obviously have varying responses. heād complain about not getting a satisfying ending to it all the time. his favourite character is sam or kelly definitely. he canāt choose a favourite episode because literally so much happens in every one.
lily - the good place. iāve also said this before, but i just genuinely think sheād love it. itās a show that she would watch while knitting or studying, because itās easy to follow and funny. sheād definitely quote it a lot and itād create some great & healthy conversations between the marauders about mortality, morals and death. her favourite character is janet!
pandora - a series of unfortunate events. sheād love this show wholeheartedly. itās so messy and reminds her of the odd things that seem to keep happening to her. sheād know the āthatās not how the story goesā song and sing it all the time, though sheād change the lyrics to fit whatever situation or drama is going on. her favourite character is sunny, and she started wearing more bows in her hair because of violet! her favourite episode would be s2 ep3!
mary - desperate housewives. she would love the drama, the betrayals and the overall storylines. sheād know every little thing about it, from all the names of lynetteās children to mrs mccluskeyās backstory. her favourite character is gabby solis and she will take no criticism. her favourite episode is the one where carlosā mum falls down the stairs.
marlene - glee. i genuinely believe sheād know every single big song and wouldnāt stop singing them. you hear āDonāt Stop Belivināā being sung (badly) in the hallway? itās marlene. her favourite character is santana lopez and she knows the entire monologue that she says to kurt in season 6. she constantly complains about this show but really does love it. her favourite episode is the klaine & brittana wedding!
dorcas - heartbreak high! sheād love the petty drama and storylines that happen in this show, and sheād so create her own āmapā but put concealment charms on it because unlike harper and amerie sheās smart enough not to get caught. her favourite character would be ca$h or harper, and the episode she likes the most would be ep4.
barty - how to sell drugs online (fast)! this show is so hilarious and i really think heād enjoy it. heād smell the plot twists coming a mile away but heād still love it, and probably make evan watch it with him. his favourite character is moritz because heās just such an idiot and he sort of reminds him of himself, though i feel like heād love lisa too. he would say that he doesnāt have a favourite episode because he loved it all.
evan - the umbrella academy. he would compare the dysfunctional family to the marauders nonstop. heād love the way it explores time travel and superpowers, and would spend hours in the library researching if it was possible because heād get hyper fixated on it of course. his favourite character is klaus (no surprise there lol) and he literally cried during that one episode in season 3. his favourite episode is the first ever one.
(as always, these are my own opinions!! iāve personally watched all these shows and love them all very much!! this took a while to make but we move who needs a sleep schedule anyway. )

More Cinderella's Castle thoughts!
-Everyone was perfectly cast, like they're all amazing and versatile actors so no matter what roles each of them played it would have been awesome, but everyone's roles felt somewhat catered for them in particular, if that makes sense? Which I'm sure is somewhat the case, but I disgress.
-Jeff brought such a fun chaotic energy to The Narrator, it was wonderful to watch. The makeup and outfit was also splendid, and there was this impish physicality as well, he was just so much fun.
-I loved the band being named and mentioned in universe! So much fun, and we were all cheering so much whenever they'd come on stage. Obviously because everyone is grateful to Matt for the creation of Pulp Musicals, of course.
-...speaking of, it really was odd watching Putrice, Tadius, and the Prince interact on stage given that my brain has been at least 85% Pulp for the last half a year
-I was fortunate enough to be able to sit front row, center stage. For most of the play this was absolutely amazing, getting to see the actors so close and seeing the intricacies of their facial expressions, the costume, set design, all those wonderful details that can fade into the background if you're too far away. ...the downside is that at the part of act 2 when the Prince turned around to reveal the sparkly purple codpeice it was, like, just a few yards away from me. Pretty sure I audibly said "oh God" and buried my face in my hands.
-I really like Tadius and Ella's friendship! I especially love how they handled the hints of romance, particularly how nothing happens in the show. There are hints that something might happen between them if they decide to explore that in the future, hints that Tadius has some form of feelings for her, but canonically they're just friends and have a good, solid friendship that feels very organic.
-Crumb was adorable at all times, but I especially love when Joey was no longer in control of the puppet and just reacting, it was hilarious~
-I ship Ella with Tadius, Lucy, Justine, AND the Fairy Queen of Sweet Dreams
-Ella was so freaking badass, like... AUGH I love her so much!
-I honestly kinda ship Rancilda/The Prince. They had fun chemistry, especially with the "blowjob joke" bit.
-Like EVERY line the Prince had was sexual, it was impressive but it also started to blend together after a while.
-For a moment there I honestly thought we might have a bad guys win situation, they did a really good job of leaving things so it felt like there really is no way back from this.
-Ella's outfits were so amazing! The multi-colored dress and the one from the end especially, just... oh my god I am such a lesbian you guys.
-I love how the entire theatre loved the bits where Tadius talked about going against the royal family. I love him so much <3
-I also love how the theatre went nuts at the "let's go" before the final song, there was just so much energy in that room and it was amazing.
-The music in general was just... DAMN. Don't get me wrong, I loved the demos, but I can't wait to hear the final versions again when the digital ticket comes out because they all sounded so amazing.
-Looking forwards to the digital ticket in general, like... being there, seeing it live, it was such a precious and amazing experience that I'll treasure. But I'm also looking forward to being able to watch the whole show again, both with renting the digital ticket and when the pro-shot comes out!
-The 2023 performance of VHSCC is still my favorite Starkid production ever, I don't know what if anything could top it (PLEASE re-release the digital ticket or put it up for permanent purchase or on Youtube, PLEASE), but while I know the fact that this is the most recent show and the only one I got to see live is coloring things, Cinderella's Castle is definitely one of their top musicals in my opinion. Currently it's at the number 2 spot, and while it's possible things might shift once the initial excitement wears off, I can't see it dropping much lower-- certainly not below the top 5.
-I almost certainly have even more thoughts I should try and get down while the experience in relatively fresh but I'm gonna have a long shift tomorrow and I'm Sleepy. Goodnight!

Hi Zep! Buckle up because I have a number of picks for your ask game! How about 2, 10, 17, 40, 48, 55 and 70?
Hey Michelle! Hope you're having a lovely Sunday. āļøš
Omg these are amazing questions!!
Lmfao this is hilarious to me, but I actually had to think hard about this one. My pre-writing/outlining process is pretty methodical. However, I think the biggest time the narrative hijacked my hands was in Smoke Eater (firefighter!Dean x reader).
I had several scenes in the original outline that just weren't fitting right when I got to the drafting stage, to the point where I had to chuck them out entirely. Also, the whole murder mystery that's central to the narrative was complex to tease out, but that also took me by surprise when I was outlining!
I wasn't intending to go that route at first, but when I thought of including John Winchester and Cas as homicide detectives (drawing from my childhood obsession with Law & Order), it kind of just started coming to me.
So I usually have the premise of the idea before the title. It's gotten easier as I've become more experienced as a writer, but sometimes I just put a placeholder title that kind of encapsulates the idea before I come up with something better, then I start outlining/researching.
Often I get placeholder titles from songs/lyrics of what will likely give me inspiration for the story, and sometimes those titles stick!
Ooh another great question. š Funnily enough, the ones that come to me off the top of my head are mostly from Break Me Down:
M.M. scoffed, with a subtle shake of his head.Ā āNah, man,ā he said ruefully. āThatās true motherfuckinā love.ā
And a fun one:
āAlert the media,ā you said. āWeāve got the ultimate weapon against Soldier Boy: a slow ride on his dick.ā
š This one also sticks out in my mind from the Midnight Espresso-verse - Devour Me (Part 2), as a playful one I was weirdly proud of lol:
āQuestion: do you consider yourself more of a tits or ass man?ā you ask him. Youāre half teasing, but still curious. Dean snorts at the question.Ā āMore of a connoisseur,ā he replies, smirking.Ā āAh.ā You nod sagely, and you point between him and yourself. āSo this is like a āsample the menuā situation.ā Deanās smirk deepens. āSweetheart, youāre a goddamn buffet.ā
Finally, this one from the imagine "You are Dean's one exception":
Oh man, that's very tough. I've been blessed to get some amazing feedback from you and others, and believe it or not, I do go back and reread comments and reblogs. It puts a smile on my face whether I'm having a bad day, or want to continue smiling on a good one. š
I think one of the best compliments I can receive, however, is that a story touched someone on an emotional level and somehow got them through a difficult time in their life, or is one of their "comfort stories." That's happened a few times, and it almost makes me cry every time. š„²
I can also say that you, @chernayawidow, and @waynes-multiverse have given me some of the best feedback I've ever gotten on stories. Not just because the other two have made me cheese grin/nearly cry of laughter, but also because all of you are writers and have been able to tell me narratively (or on a character development level) what you liked about what I was doing in a story. As a writer, that kind of feedback is amazing as well. šš
Also, some of my favorite feedback of all time has been on Midnight Espresso -- whether it's been people thanking me for the representation of the Hispanic/Latin culture, or sharing experiences with being plus-sized and how that's viewed in society. š
š¬š¬ Ahh guilty, lol. At the risk of sounding prideful, I think if you're doing it right, you should be writing the stories you want to write. So it stands to reason that you should be able to enjoy reading your own work. š
None on Tumblr, but unfortunately I do have a few on FF.net, which I don't even post on anymore, and maybe one or two on Ao3. Sometimes you just lose the drive to write for that fandom, especially if engagement is down. Sometimes you just move on to other things.
I'm a voracious editor. I believe good writing is also good editing -- that's just part of the process. So yes I guess I can be self-critical. lol
Sometimes I'll be rereading something, and I'll go in and edit it after it's already been posted for months, whether it's a typo, or a line that doesn't sound quite right for the character, or part of a scene that I think needs smoothing out. I guess I'm a bit of a perfectionist that way. š
Again, thank you so much for these questions, my friend!! I'm going to be sending you some too very soon. š

Steddie fanfics recomendation (1/?)- 'If you liked [insert popular fanfic here], then you will probably enjoy [insert similar vibes fanfic] edition'
All right this is very simple, I will recommend steddie fanfics that are pretty damn popular on the fandom, and will try to match their vibe with other similar works. Hope I wont disappoint!
If you liked [Throw me one], by Adure, you may likeā¦
Kind of Vibe: the two idiots can't figure whats going on between them, Friends With Benefits kind of situation, a whole lot of pinning even tho they are already hooking up, "what are we? is just sex?" kind of fic
[Is your light on?] by the same author WIP - 120k+ - 11/15 Chapters - Secret relationship - Angst with a Happy Ending Post S4, Eddie trying to heal, Steve being a major A Asshole but getting better, a lot of push and pull coming from both ends, it gets Much Worse before it gets better (or so we hope, Vio has us holding on onto that "angst with a happy ending" tag for dear life)
[And I walk these streets, a loaded six-string on my back] by Lagardere and Miss Antlers Completed - 70k+ - 9/9 Chapters - Fix-it - Eddie comes back as a ghost - fast burn sex/slow burn romance Post S4, Eddie comes back as a some kind of ghost that only Steve can see and interact with, and has the time of his life tormenting and haunting Steve. NO SLOW BURN AT ALL, Steve spends half the fic on absolute denial while also putting his tongue down Eddie's throat as much as he can, there is a Cursed Guitar my Beloved, a lot of hilarious moments, absolute fav
[You looking at me, looking at you] by emryses Completed - 65k+ - 10/10 Chapters - Friends with Benefits - Miscommunication Ah, the good ol' friends with benefits that start acting like a married couple but Refuse To Talk About What Is Going On, and therefore, miscommunication and angst ensues
[It has no place here] series, by 3MinsOver Completed - 70k - heavy smut - "enemies" to lovers The filthiest (yet somehow sweetest?) "enemies" to lovers I've ever read. Follow their journey from Very Ugly Hate-Fucks to Feelings Realizations. There are a LOT of kinks in here, make sure to read the tags first
[someone else's favorite song] by fastcardotmp3 Complete - 120k - FWB to lovers - Grief/Mourning - fast burn sex/slow burn romance What it seemed like a very clear, very no-strings-attached friends with benefits situation between Eddie and Steve suffers a 3-point-turn after Steve loses someone important to him and needs someone to comfort him and keep an eye on him. My summary makes no justice to how beautifull this fanfic is!!
[Carve your name into my chest] by hexiewrites Completed - 42k - 8/8 Chapters - Enemies to fuckbuddies to friends to lovers- modern AU Both Eddie and Steve are hockey players, long time enemies and rivals, or so it seems. The truth is that they have been hooking up for quite some time, and no one else but them knows about it - but for how long can they keep a dirty secret like that from the public?

Give me some fun facts about tix please there was a point in time inwas kind of obsessed with him and had a folder in my phone of him
HELPPPP thats really good. right away micahš«”
tixs backstory (regarding how he came to be anyway) is intentionally left vague and untouched on bc 1. idfk. 2. its funny and 3. i want to leave it up to interpretation tbh. but at the same time it is canon that hes like at least a billion years old. much much older than his own mom which is silly but WHAT EVER.
this might not end up being final but i like to think the scar over his eye was from grem but probably by accident....idk tho...
speaking of when he shapeshifts into something/someone he keeps his freckles and the scar. bc i like it and i think getting rid of physical traits like that would be pretty hard. also the freckles are actually a recent change i drew eugene with freckles once and thought tix would look cute with them too and i was RIGHT
i dont think ive ever actually told anyone besides art what actually Happened to tixs wife...her name is risa basically they met pretty recently after tix broke up with grem and she died during complications after having tiabi Ć·( so now anything having to do with that kind of stuff scares him...so u can imagine daffodil being born would make him lose his shit lol.
these pic is THE most on model pic of him ive drawn. he looks like this.
btw rare EARLY early gq art who the hell is this get him away from meholy fuck this pic is huge sorry
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/c4b898f7c6a58c9eb9a23d72fed6e001/342f844ec1ac9736-fc/s640x960/df75d498d156c257cc55cbe1883870a14a12251a.jpg)
iirc hes one first of the post-gq reboot characters i made, meaning i actually made him in i think 8th or 9th grade just like lenarr + zach as opposed to 7th grade when i made the villains...this was back when gq was in rpg format he was supposed to be a tutorial character i think. also yes okay he was very heavily based on bill cipher bc i LOVED gravity falls at the time. it was that and some random pic on deviantart i couldbt find if i tried. also im gonna be real the concept of his little pocket dimension he uses as a substitute for internal organs is based on something i made up for something else fandom related thats so batshit insane im taking it to my grave
tix was supposed to die in the original cartoon version of gq....tbf he Did come back later but still. he no longer dies bc that plotpoint makes absolutely no sense now LOL
hes actually quite a good artist....see
personality wise hes literally just if dan from dan vs was an australian (oddly capable) single father with crazy powers. thats literally him. also hes not very emotionally mature in most situations BUT around tiabi hes literally a whole different person. to be a good role model i suppose
also this isnt lore related but its really really funny. one time a few years back someone on twitter gifted me voice acting for a pic of my ocs i drew (i dont have it anymore but trust me) and they gave tix a brooklyn accent. i STILL think that is fucking hilarious i drew this directly after. i can still hear him saying JESUS FUCKING CHRIST MY ASS in the brooklyn accent and it makes me laugh whoever voiced that is my hero
btw did u know he cant taste things until After hes eaten them already. even then he can choose whether or not he even Wants to lol. also doesnt need to eat/drink/sleep but Can still feel ill effects of not doing those things sometimes just bc he was probably conditioned to
also he secretly is big into botany and collecting rare plants....probably bc his wife was a botanist...uu..
tix has most likely Met melody just bc of his status but doesnt actually like Know her as a person. this is a pretty big issue in the mothers day episode i have for s3/4ish
anddd jsyk his favorite band is ABBA. favorite song is voulez-vous
i cant think of much else but i like tix hes been the fan favorite for a really long time...also my first oc to have a kinnie iirc (i dont talk to them anymore BUT it did happen) hes literally my mary sue tumblr sexyman oc and its awesome
bomus pic from art. i could fill a book with all the fucked up tix pics hes drawn
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/fc2d859cd0153271ed17c7b60278f084/342f844ec1ac9736-3d/s540x810/ce4f4536d9dfe04fe3663762d74d33d105cbf106.jpg)

just got back from the fnaf movie, i really need to go to bed but i have to get some thoughts out NOW š«
positives
movey good C:
matthew lillard was just so so good god bless
the animatronics were amazing, i really wasnāt expecting the scene where they all played and had fun together????? it was such wish fulfillment i was just sitting there like is this real
(on that note HEY. someone had better gif that fronnie scene were theyre just playing and dancing together. š get on it giffers)
maybe controversial but i liked the matpat and coryxkenshin cameos a lot they were funny and didnt detract from the flow too much
the jumpscares were not terribly hacky like i thought theyd be, and the balloon boy one was really good š
also IM NOT CRAZY THAT WAS A CIRCUS BABY REFERENCE RIGHT??? AAAAAAAAAA
all of the parts and service room was so cool tbh, all of the creepy old endos and parts, the little fetch easter egg, all of it so so good
the easter eggs in general were really fun, im looking forward to watching this movie be micro analyzed for years to come
the springlock scene š¤ cinemaā¦..
that scene were william roundhouse kicks mike is just like. so amazing. this is going on the positives. i cant believe they did that. what an amazing movie.
in general the lighting and sound design were very nice (i mean as a layperson i thought they were nice idk XD)
THE SONG WAS IN IT THEY DID THE FUCKING THING šš
negatives
no puppet?
i feel like this story suffers from the same issue TSE has, where by straying from the games canon youāve actually made things so much more complicated? while some things definitely made sense (vanessa being williams daughter was a nice touch and made sense for both characters fight me, also a great nod to how shes mind controlled in game canon) others feel like they just made things more complicated? like, why was garrett just a random kid in a random campsite? why was william there, why did he kill him, why do the ghost kids know him? i guess you could say, if there is a reason, it will be revealed in a later movie? but thats so many unnecessary steps when all you had to do was have garret go missing from a freddys location (like in TSE). like, mikes brothers disappearance is linked to freddys, thats why he needs to work there, you could save a lot of time aunt jane ate up. speaking of.
its such a hilarious plot hole that they just totally move past aunt janes death. like this guy is fighting tooth and nail for custody of his sister against his aunt and she shows up dead at his house and nobody is suspicious or cares. also he shows up at the hospital with a stabbed cop whoās apparently in a coma and cant verify his story at all?? the plot armor on this man!!
i realize they needed to put abby in danger at some point or else why would she even be here, but having the ghost kids want to ghostify her doesnt make a whole lotta sense >_> like they kept saying william was confusing them but they never really showed that, golden freddys spirit kid seemed pretty aware of the situation the entire time.
that one jumpscare with the kid with black goopy eyes was pretty silly lmao. feel like they could have captured the creepypasta vibe better
this is semi positive and negative, but i really really liked vanessaās creepiness i just wish theyd leaned into it a bit more? that scene where shes staring lovingly up at the animatronics and then asks mike to dance is just so š like girl what is wrong with you fr š„° but then her behaviors dont make much sense after that, i was a bit confused as to when she was supposed to be trying to get mike to stay and when she was supposed to be warning him away.
the writing in general was definitely a bit weird ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ eh
sorry if my negatives seem like bummers, but i really enjoy picking apart movies i like, and i tend to like things more when there is stuff to pick apart! (sensory fandom experienceā¦..) in general i really enjoyed the movie and i think most fnaf fans will! itās fun cheesy horror that has a lot of love for the source material without trying to BE it, which wouldnāt be possible anyway
man theres definitely other things i could say but i really have to go to sleep now š gn!!!

i hope this isn't too much, but i'm nosy! do every odd-numbered smosh question :]
Aah! XD Thank you šā£ļø
Here you go (this got so lengthy omg sorry).
1. Ian or Anthony?
The age old question huh?
You know what? I was asked this before (on a more shallow level I guess but it still fits) and I will repeat myself: "Anthony has Perfect Hair and is very attractive to me. But i was very much very intrigued by Ian as a whole from day 1 and that hasn't changed." (quote by me, sometime between july and now)
On a less shallow level: I relate to Anthony a lot regarding lots of things and respect his journey very much. But Ian - idk what it is, I was drawn to him since day 1 and can also relate to him on several levels. I genuinely find him hilarious. I also know/knew and like(d) people in RL that are very much like him. (Or, at least the way he makes us perceive him.)
3. What's your favorite channel between main/pit/games?
I replied to this here.
5. Do you have a favorite Smosh video? What is it?
I just thought to myself: why did I reblog this ask game? Why am I doing this to myself? I generally am VERY bad at answering questions about favorite things. I cheat all the time. I have several favorite Smosh videos, depending on the criteria. But I'm gonna go with the answer that is probably the most boring one:
PokƩmon Theme Song from 2005. (rip)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/1d71bd8d55bf84115ea300c3c22363e5/f444f19f90cd62c2-48/s540x810/c9691dfb31dc2a866e2f8991ff0803156d4af3ca.jpg)
To me it symbolizes a lot of things and without it I probably wouldn't have found Smosh - or I would've, but a lot later. It evokes many good feelings in me and finding it for sure changed some stuff and influenced me, even though I didn't know it at the time. Lot's of momentous things happened to me in 2006, discovering Smosh via this video was one of them.
7. What is your favorite series on Smosh (main channel)?
Let's do This! !! Followed by uh maybe PokƩmon in Real Life, Funeral Roasts and Interviewing Exes.
9. What is your favorite series on Smosh Games?
Would you believe me if I told you that I was stuck on this question for like half an hour? T_T I really like many series on that channel and they did so many different things... And in the end it's still a tie. It's the very basic (?) and classic Gametime w/ Smosh and the very uh, basic (?) Board AF :')
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/1e09f999be00aec8aaa2e83a47004292/f444f19f90cd62c2-06/s540x810/756df2e67fee2425b7b26200eba2889d2c0d5460.jpg)

11. What's something you want to see come back?
Easy: Let's Do This! :')
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/9ea434d2c778210850dca7f928ed4eba/f444f19f90cd62c2-19/s540x810/386e4f0c8c9a2022940320e5b7cdebf3212ec5ef.jpg)
13. Do you ship anything/love any friendship pairs?
I'm actually fine with any ships, romantically or platonically. If I watch any combo long enough and imagine them in random situations I can see them as a ship (platonic or otherwise), or a intriguing combo at the very least. I do enjoy content about Ian &/ Anthony, and pretty much other popular combos. A combination I've seen less of and that I love is Tommy + Ian and Courtney + Ian. However you want to interpret this, I love their dynamics and what my head provides me with about them. As a sidenote and apart from any shipping business: Courtney's and Ian's friendship is very very dear to me, if you (general) have any clips/interview/audio/whatever where their friendship is being shown/the topic, feel free to send it to me. I would be so so grateful :')
15. What castmember do you think you are most like?
Ok so I asked my sibling because I wasnt sure about this. And they said: Ian, Sarah (we both miss her dearly and we'll count her as cast for this) and Amanda. I agree tbh.
17. What do you want to see now that Anthony's back?
Summer/Winter Games :')
19. Is there a video/series you really loved when you were younger?
Lunchtime with Smosh! š„¹ (Ian is Bored too..I know, this is cheating ;_;)
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/88c1ea9d91e09f8763f41ebbe459ddef/f444f19f90cd62c2-a5/s540x810/f4a446887ecdb82126eeacdacbaf71683bf95f9e.jpg)

21. Did you ever watch Smosh the movie?
Yes! More than once š¤š
23. Tell me an unpopular Smosh opinion.
I'm more excited for the concept and existence and bts of Food Battle returning than for the Food Battle 2023 video itself. Don't know if that's an unpopular opinion though. I'm very exited and am looking forward to it very much, and it looks very good. But I enjoy the Food Battle series on a rather meta level and am not as emotionally involved as with other stuff.
25. It's food battle time. You picking a pink frosted sprinkled donut, or some stick-shaped food?
Thank youuu!!

chisme time lol
Listen even if they missed by aiming at that a specific blogger who hadn't made the point they thought they made, that was still a good point and also hilariously relevant to recent shenanigans in my meatspace bc uh. My partner's dad's girlfriend's son's (now ex) boyfriend (lol) just had a related foot-in-mouth moment.
We (all of the above) were listening to a vinyl after waiting several months for the occasion. We were keeping mostly quiet as the songs played (mostly cause we used the good speakers and FIL set them loud as fuck), but taking breaks after each face and made it clear to the son + boyfriend who arenāt into the artist that (of course!) they werenāt obligated to listen along and could just chill in another part of the house or take off if they didnāt feel like it. They stayed.
Just as Thee Single(TM) was starting out, the bf blurted out the start of one of his extremely superficial anecdotes about some or other expensive ass club. FIL shut it down as politely but also as fast as he could. And also made a point to listen to the anecdote after the vinyl face had run out. Still, cringe was experienced by all. The couple left very shortly after.
I think he was genuinely confused that The Point of the gathering could literally just be the music for over five minutes lol. Doesn't help that he has an extremely pronounced Mexican Equivalent Of A Posh Accent which is pretty much universally loathed by every mexican who lacks it lol.
I think he also underestimated our vape š¤
AlsoX2 my sources tell me they broke up like a week afterwards š¬ Not because of this officially, but i wouldn't be surprised if it uh. Nudged things along kinda. And like... I'm notorious for not knowing when it's my turn in conversations and socially clumsy in many ways, I like to think I can recognise and smooth over that in others or at least not hold it against them. But this wasn't very subtle lol. The situation was a neon sign saying 'pls let us listen to the thing in peace'.
We'd been hanging out for a few hours and it was getting late (partner and I were sleeping over). It was a reasonable time to go and we gave them an opening to do so but bro decided he'd like. Ride out 40mins of music he didn't like on charisma alone??? Unless he thought we'd just let it play in the background. But you don't move the dinner party to a different room and use The Good Speakers and make it a whole thing just to leave it as bg noise. Idk it Befuddled us for days lol.
I just hope Partner's Dad Girlfriend's Gay Son finds a nicer guy tbh, bc he's a sweet dude.

[ dance ] for your muse to dance with mine
Word prompts compilation
Parties were never Kukki's forte when it came to socializing. In fact, she loathed the concept of 'partying' as a whole, since it was an activity involving crowded places, loud sounds and a ton of chaotic movement, all of these being stressors contributing to the young woman's anxiety.
So no wonder that, while everyone else was dancing their night away, Kukki proffered to sit on the side at the bar, enjoying a good sweet mocktail, while watching her friends showing off their newest dance moves on the dance floor. She wasn't a great dancer either, so there wasn't much of a loss in not partaking too in their weird display of extraversion, or at least that's what Kukki liked to think and believe.
The silver-haired woman was watching Hinata and Narumi doing the macarena in the middle of the dance floor, when she felt a finger patting her shoulder. Confused to whoever might've sat down next to her while she was focused on her friends, Kukki turned around to meet the gaze of the stranger seeking her company. To her surprise, the 'culprit' was none other than Isao, the mysterious Spades expert newcomer who intimidated everyone with his imposing and stoic demeanor. What made this the more intriguing was the fact that the older man was very quiet and withdrawn, so what was he doing at a Friday night Beach party, seeking Kukki's attention of all things?
"C-Can I help you, Isao-san?" The young woman tried her best to be polite and hide her bewilderment with what could it be that the man wanted from her. "You look kinda lonely here all by yourself, missy." Isao replied in a stoic manner, as he took a sip from his beer. "Why aren't you partying with the rest of your friends?"
His inquiry made Kukki's eyes widen for a slight second. Why did it matter to him if she partied or not? And why was he soo interested in her well being all of a sudden when they were nothing, but pretty much strangers to one another. 'Such an odd man...' Kukki thought to herself and tried to regain her composure. "Don't worry about me, sir. I am in no way lonely and I am actually enjoying myself here at the bar. They serve very delicious drinks here." She answered and motioned to her mocktail.
"That doesn't answer my second question. Youngsters like you usually like spending their night moving around to rhythm of the music, not languishing at the bar like a bum. That's us old folks' job." Unbelievably, there was a hint of a smile forming on Isao's lips as he finished his comment, and his words managed to draw a slight snort out of his conversation partner.
"Well, I am the exception to the rule then. I'm not the party type to be honest. I much prefer the quiet and besides, I am a terrible dancer." Kukki smiled too and looked down at her blue lagoon drink. "Oh come on, you can't possibly be worse than those two." Isao raised an eyebrow and pointed at Hinata and Narumi. "Well, whatever. How about this, you join me for the next dance and I'll prove to you that you aren't that terrible of a dancer?"
Kukki was even more baffled, but the situation sounded so hilarious that she couldn't turn down the offer. 'What a truly strange man! But still, his offer doesn't sound that bad...' After all, she too was very curious to see Isao actually partying. It just made for a funny mental image. "Okay, then that's what we'll do!"
So, when the next song started, the two joined the dance floor and for the first time ever since she's been to the Borderlands, Kukki actually let loose and had some fun doing something silly and actually partied for once in her life. It turned out that dancing wasn't that bad of a thing either. Isao wasn't that bad of a dancer himself, and following his cues and example, Kukki managed to keep face on the dance floor by not embarrassing herself. It was an overall very enjoyable Friday night and by the end, the young woman made a new friend in the person of the grumpy old man Isao, who wasn't that grumpy after all.
