#this ain't 3 am postin' but it feels like it…

[athela-3]

I saw this in a dream after finishing Caligula Overdose, so...

That’s it. That’s the post. I saw this in my dream, made it in real life, and now I am at peace. Maybe I'll make one for Ritsu too… or even Lucid… maybe fem!MC once I kick off her playthrough…

glass animals?

ivy: black mambo ("wanna play cheat?/now says the sloth/a domino/flush to his nose/tickle that cheek/and take your throne/pump your veins/with gushing gold")

meredith: waterfalls coming out your mouth ("it's chemical warfare/red lips and television eyewear/raspberry soda hair/in the pool in a blow-up gummy bear/fake youth/scooby doo/push pops on the corner of the roof/fruit loops/super food/chat shit but where's the real you?")

diana: space ghost coast to coast ("fuck that shit, now I go/my way and you go yours/were you bored of gender norms?/of bein' alone, no mama home/a bad divorce, or sad we can't/afford the clothes our heroes own")

alassie: hot sugar ("hot sugar in the afternoon/I wish that we could be real too/so cool but we don't talk/hotels and alcohol/pool paintings on the wall/hot rubber on the tar/I don't wanna be around you/just wanna be like you")

ramona: I don't wanna talk (I just wanna dance) ("we kissed in the morning on a summer day/you taste like cigarettes and hurricanes/there's a warning written in the corners of your face/whiplash and you left me in a vapour trail/now I know it's safe to say/nothing's perfect anyway")

rhea: take a slice ("I don't ever wanna pick a slice/one is pretty but the other lies/chewing on a fat smoke/no filter but you're puffing/sucking on a slim vogue/dark fingernail polish/I'm the treasure, baby, I'm the prize/cut me rails of that fresh cherry pie")

cornelia: wyrd ("you can't run so you must hide/you won't make it back this time/I sold your rope for a bucket/of lemon peel, now suck it/so my friend, our time is done/you and I could've had so much/with ropes for the bucket/of luscious black gold nuggets")

kaden: melon and the coconut ("one day, you'll see you're fuckin' wrong/sometimes b-sides are the best songs/sometimes killing time's very fruitful/I know I can't make you younger/I can't stop life movin' onwards/I can't hide you from life's horrors/I'm not makin' you like your father/too much quinoa and online shopping")

andreia: season 2 episode 3 ("maybe, I wish I could remold ya/to vertical and golden/but you turn to styrofoam/and so it hurts to say it's hopeless/and we ain't gonna make it/leftover breakfast, cereal for lunch/she's broken, but she's fun")

suzy: helium ("you gonna call it or am I?/one more time/this puppy love is out of line/one more slide/and then we're back to real life/ooh and I'm falling now but it's so wrong/you talk like a man and taste like the sun/ooh and you lift your eyes up from the dust/I knew just then I knew it was done")

samuel: jdnt ("I'm all armored up/I've got my old helmet on/keeping out an eye/puffing all my feathers up/one more little blow/one more tap and I collapse/teetering on a toe/I feel that final poke/please, it's not okay/oh, can't you feel your dirty face?")

bianca: tangerine ("you poke at your phone postin' aerial photos/of you and your smoothie/I can't keep on makin' you happy/'cause you got issues with your daddy/I miss ramen noodles and laughing at you/and your gran in home movies/but I wish I could show you more of yourself/I wish I could make you somebody else/but I left it way too late/are you stuck in your own ways?")

archibald: pork soda ("somewhere in south end when you were fun/you took my hand and you made me run/up past the prison to the seafront/you climbed the cliff edge and took the plunge/why can't we laugh now like we did then?/how come I see you and ache instead?")

raphael: pools ("put the flowers in your hair/wrap your tendrils round my chest/I smile because I want to/I am your boy/shake my little soul for you now, toy/and I settle up into a world of noise/I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy/with a battery of guilt on which to poise")
