#this is a post that turns into a best of queen album

[fandomfaeofveryfewf4cks]

What was the significance of the tomatoes? Falling upon Gabriel's naked arrival?

Are the fruits going to fall?

Is this foreshadowing?

Is this the real life?

Is this just fantasy?

Are the good old fashioned lover boy and the love of his life going to get their shit together?

Is Aziraphale going to realize he's fallen in love for the first time and this time he knows it's for re-ee-ee-eeeaal?

These are the questions I need answered.

(This was supposed to be a short and silly post, but my thoughts blew up in the tags, so read them if you want a silly fan theory)

Lewis Hamilton x Reader

SMAU

The reader is a singer-songwriter who just broke up with long term fiancé Lewis Hamilton. Of course she wrote a gut wrenching album to cope.

This is gonna be a lot of shitting on Lewis— absolutely no hate! I just love a good heartbreak and the Tortured Poets Department

Also dates aren’t accurate bc I don’t have time to worry abt all that and I totally stole all of this from real life- not an ounce of originality

you make me crazier ꕥ a. russo

pairing: alessia russo x reader

summary: when the arsenal team gets invited to attend an international artist’s show, little did they know—one of their recent signings is secretly dating them. pop star!reader

you hummed playing with the strings of your guitar, a habit you always had ever since you were a child. currently, sound check was going on and you were waiting for the lucky ones, the arsenal women’s team—you’re a fan of football.

you noticed your manager who was monitoring you with a few of your tour staff. a small chuckle escaped your lips when you saw the way your manager looked at her watch frantically.

“it seems like the arsenal women’s team has arrived.” jenny said, as you hummed—giving her a small nod. as she scurried to greet them.

you strummed the strings of the guitar playing one of your favorite songs, crazier by taylor swift. not knowing that the team had entered already, nor how your favorite person watched with a small smile on her face.

“you lift my feet off the ground, you spin me around.” you sang as you thought about the time where you agreed to be alessia’s girlfriend. the wide smile she had, it was something you had fallen for.

“would you be mine, y/n?” alessia asked, as you gave her a shy soft smile. you gave her a nod, as she lifted you up from the ground—gently spinning you around in happiness.

“you make me crazier, crazier. feels like i’m falling and i—i’m lost in your eyes.” you opened your eyes, as you noticed the team watching you with a smile, some looked starstrucked, and some admired the way you sang. but one—was totally in love with you, and they didn’t know that.

“you make me crazier, crazier—crazier.” you stood up before giving them a small bow, as they had clapped when the song had ended. jenny giving you a knowing look, as she knew about the private relationship.

of course, she knew—your childhood bestfriend turned manager. a chaotic bunch the two of you were.

“did you guys like it?” you asked, giving a small hum. as leah, the team’s co-captain gave you a nod. alessia watched as you came closer, greeting the team.

the sound check was exactly how you wanted it to be, the team enjoyed it. but it’s not over yet, is it? there’s still the actual concert, the team had the closest view to you—as they had the front row.

the set list was simple, you were playing the second album you released—it truly was a hit. you watched as the crowd cheered the loudest, but you kept your eyes on a certain blonde.

it was the way her eyes shined when she watched you sang. the way she’d look at you with pure adoration, and would get a bit teary eyed as she acknowledges what you accomplished and is proud to have you as her lover.

when the last song ended, you stood up—the tour staff quickly entering the stage to grab your guitar, and other things.

“that was a great show, london. i’m glad to have come out here for my tour, and i really can’t wait to come back.” you said, as the crowd cheered. you blew a kiss, as you entered the backstage—knowing that the arsenal team already had passes.

henry, your bodyguard let the team pass as they waited outside of your dressing room. chatter was heard, as the door swung open—revealing you in a simple white long sleeved polo shirt, black pleated wide leg dressy trousers, white trainers and plaid pattern argyle print pocket v-sweater.

“hi, i’m y/n.” you softly said, as the team chuckled at your awkwardness—even jenny gave you a pointed look, snickering at you.

you chatted with the whole team, not minding how you held onto alessia’s pinky—it was covered by a jacket she had placed over her leg.

a simple post is what broke the internet, it also had the arsenal group chat blowing up.

Reality is . . . off

Here's me, screaming into the void. I've got no theory, only Clues.

Reality seems to be acting strangely in Season 2 of Good Omens. Mostly around Aziraphale. My examples:

This season seems to be from Aziraphale's point of view, and all the colors and lighting seem to be very bright and vibrant.

The note from Maggie -- another post on Tumblr (damned if I can find it now) pointed out that she puts her phone down right as Aziraphale comes into her shop for the first time. She seems to be texting him, but the text message arrives to his door as a note in the mail slot because that's how he expects to receive correspondences.

Changing the Bentley into Our Car -- and in the flashback to 1941 that happens after the trip to Edinburgh in the show, the Bently is still a four-door. He changed it and then made it so it always was that way. (There's a line in the book about someone being powerful enough to change something and then make it so it always was that way -- something that's repeated about the Book of Life, too. Hmm . . .) No wonder Crowley just opens up the back door to put his plants in, it's always had a back door at that point! And please don't @ me with the Bently is not a Clue -- the change happens right in scene, on screen. That was not a "they hoped no one would notice" moment. And yes, I know they weren't able to use Mary for the second season. They got a reasonable look-alike, and then changed that car into a four-door. For why??

The Bentley following him when he parks it. People have said, "Oh, yes, the Bentley is sentient, of course!" But it hasn't done anything to show that until after Aziraphale drives it. And don't @ me with the Queen -- the gag in the book says that any album left in a car for more than a fortnight transmogrifies into The Best of Queen. It's not the Bentley doing that, it's just a fact of Queen. (Can confirm.)

Aziraphale is terrible at magic. But somehow, when he really needs to make a trick work, he does it. Oh, yeah, babe? You just put that photo right up your sleeve slick as that? Hm.

That 25 Lazarii miracle. Neither of them expected that. Yet there it was.

The whole ball. He wasn't casting miracles, reality was just -- conforming itself to what he wanted.

Now my point is . . . I don't know. My observation is that reality seems to be following Aziraphale's wishes, and I don't think he even realizes that it shouldn't be. Not entirely. Or is it that he knows reality is re-shaping itself around him, and he's enjoying it?

Reality is not warping around Crowley in the same way, and Crowley seems to be able to feel something's wrong. Coming in waves, like a hangover.

Now, I have heard it said that Neil has also pointed out that our angel and demon warp reality just by existing. Okay, actually makes sense. How could an occult and celestial being not mess with reality without even realizing they're doing it?

Am I chewing on a nothing burger?

Is Aziraphale turned up somehow?

What is going on.

＊ I've been here for days by @justanothershadeofblue [E, 18k, OT5]

Somewhere in the desert, a man is called by God to raise up a righteous generation, to bring forth the kingdom from his own seed and the wombs of his omegas.

He will do it by any means necessary.

A series in six parts. Part 1 of Keep Holding Me This Way

＊ i'm going out tonight by @disgruntledkittenface [M, 3k, Harry/Louis]

Louis hasn’t been appreciating his boyfriend Harry. He only realizes it when Harry takes matters into his own hands. Inspired by Bejeweled by Taylor Swift.

＊ And I'm Okay (with what i'm not) by red_panda28 / @red-pandaaa [T, 6k, Louis/Harry]

“So, speaking of steamy scenes.” The interviewer, Harry had already forgotten his name again, gestured with his mod cards between Harry and his co-star, Sam. “With all the intimacy going on on-set, was there ever a time that continued… off-camera?” He winked at the camera.

OR 3 times people make assumptions about Harry's sex life and the 1 time he snaps

＊ Gotta Feeling by @allwaswell16 [T, 2k, Harry/Louis]

When Harry's life in Manchester isn't turning out the way he thought it would, he decides to visit his best friend in Mexico City. Maybe Niall can convince him to move halfway around the world.

＊ HOT TO GO! by @allwaswell16 [T, 2k, Louis/Harry]

When Harry does something weird at the barricade, he leaves Louis’ show devastated and hoping he can somehow make things right.

Or the accidental pervert fic

＊ Let the Feeling Last by @allwaswell16 [T, 5k, Harry/Louis]

Omega Harry thinks the alpha at the grocery store buying a cart full of vegetables must be an amazing chef. He doesn't know that Alpha Louis is feeding all those vegetables to his pet pig.

＊ Stars over Amsterdam by @hellolovers13 [T, 4k, Louis/Harry]

Louis remembers how stressed they were, trying to get tickets at all. The waiting for the email with the code, which only Louis got, the actual On-sale. How Harry stood behind him, peeling at his nails nervously. Trying not to distract Louis.

But it had all gone smoothly and he had gotten the tickets within just a few minutes.

Harry had jumped around Louis’s chair in excitement like a bouncing ball. Already starting to plan their outfits.

A gold fringe dress for Harry, Fearless was his favourite album, after all, and a matching shirt he had found online for Louis. So people could tell right away they were an item.

That was their plan. Before it all went to shit.

or Fate in form of Eras Tour tickets forces Louis to meet up with his Ex.

Hopefully soon to be Ex-Ex.

＊ Stronger Than the Tide by @haztobegood [G, 3k, Harry & Louis]

The time Louis had spent talking with Harry in the cave had flown by. He was still unsure where the time had gone. Maybe it was because this was the first real connection Louis had made in years. Love and sex did not interest Louis, and it became harder to find good friends.

It was different with Harry. Their conversation flowed effortlessly without pressing for more. Despite the hours they spent together in the cave, Louis wanted to keep talking, to share more of himself, and to learn more about Harry. He hoped their paths would cross again soon.

＊ The Grundy County Drag Show Incident by @haztobegood [T, 3k, Zayn/Liam]

The instrumental opening of Beyoncé’s Halo filled the bar, and the crowd clapped in time to the beat. Holding a wireless mic in her gloved hand, Veronica Stardust owned the stage. She was one of the most vocally talented drag queens in the Midwest. Harry and Louis had seen this act a few times before and were always blown away at the power of her voice. Liam, however, was just experiencing it for the first time. He didn’t know what was yet to come. Part 2 of Grundy County Incidents

＊ Porcupine by sweetkalachuchi / @neverforpickles [E, 82k, Louis/Harry]

Louis, a broke omega librarian, finds his quiet life in Vienna turned upside down when he meets a charming four-year-old boy named Venus, who insists that Louis is his "Mama." When Venus's father, Harry—a powerful and dangerous mafia leader—offers Louis a lucrative job as the boy's full-time nanny, Louis steps into a world where love and danger are deeply intertwined.

As Louis grows closer to Harry and Venus, he discovers the perilous secrets of Harry's underworld life. Their unexpected connection sparks a passionate romance, but with Harry's enemies closing in, Louis must navigate a treacherous path where his heart and life are at risk. This is a thrilling tale of love, danger, and the irresistible pull of two souls drawn together against all odds.

＊ Miracles At Sunsets by sweetkalachuchi / @neverforpickles [T, 16k, Harry/Louis]

Harry and Louis are best friends bound by years of shared memories, but their relationship is complicated by a tangle of unspoken emotions. Harry, an Alpha, is deeply in love with Louis, an Omega, but fears revealing his true feelings might shatter the friendship they’ve built. When Harry decides it’s time to settle down and start a new chapter in his life, he turns to Louis, an interior designer, for help in finding the perfect home.

What begins as a light-hearted search for a house soon becomes a journey of self-discovery and emotional upheaval. As they explore potential homes, their bond is tested by the growing tension between what is said and what remains hidden. Can Harry find the courage to reveal his heart, or will their unspoken desires tear them apart?

＊ Symphony by sweetkalachuchi / @neverforpickles [T, 4k, Louis/Harry]

In the peaceful countryside, Harry Styles is a hardworking farmer who’s all about keeping things running smoothly on his farm. But when a routine check on his crops leads to a nasty fall from his horse, Harry finds himself seriously injured. Determined not to worry his pregnant omega, Louis, he stubbornly drives himself to the hospital, knowing full well that Louis would be frantic if he found out.

Meanwhile, Louis gets a call that sends him into a panic—Harry’s in the hospital. Rushing to his side, Louis is a mix of anger and worry, not sure whether to scold Harry or hug him. As they reunite, the two navigate their emotions, and despite the scare, their bond only deepens, proving that together, they can handle anything life throws at them.

＊ Let Your Tears Fall (No I Won't Judge You) by LiveLaughLoveLarry / @loveislarryislove [E, 7k, Harry/Louis]

“I want to feel good," Harry says. "I want you to feel good. I just… I don’t know what that looks like.”Louis nods. “That’s fair,” he says. “Always a bit of a learning curve, figuring out what you like and what you don’t.” He rubs his chin. “What if we just… talk through it? Instead of doing it?”Harry blinks. “What do you mean?” he says. “I don’t – I just don’t know what-”“I know,” Louis says. “It’s okay.” He brushes his hand down Harry’s cheek, soft and gentle. “I can start,” he says. “Tell you about what I imagine us doing together. And anytime you feel like something isn’t right – you can stop me, and we can figure out a different path.”Harry nods slowly. “Okay,” he says. “I can try.”

Four times Harry cries during sex. And four times Louis is right there beside him, giving him all the comfort and support and validation he needs.

＊ Donatello by @jooles999 [M, 42k, Louis/Harry]

"GET OFF MY BUS!"

Louis neck bristled, he glared into the face of the man towering over him, his pupils black with unfiltered rage he opened his mouth ready to respond before hearing fast approaching footsteps from behind the curtain.

" Jeff, What's all the shouting about?"

Louis clamped his eyes shut gulping for air as a tightness gripped his chest.

No it can't be

Seconds felt like hours, he shivered as time stopped still. Louis opened up his now glistening eyes, he held his breath and bit tightly on his bottom lip trying to prepare himself for the moment he had so carefully avoided for 3 long years.

The curtain pulled back.

" Yes yes you have guessed right well done, it is indeed Harry Styles, you can close your gawping mouth now mate. Ill even be nice and give you a tour t-shirt, then you can get the hell off my fucking tour bus and back to...."

"L..Louis?"

Or One stormy night popstar Harry and accountant Louis are reunited after 3 long years apart. Harrys manager is dangerous and controlling can Louis save him before it's too late.

＊ I long for that feeling to not feel at all by @ineverateakiwi [NR, 2k, Harry/Louis]

When he is not around and Harry needs to feel more grounded, steady on his own feet, he thinks of Louis. It's probably not healthy to rely on someone this heavily, but it's better than nothing. It's what he has right now. And, right now, it's working. Is thinking about that feeling, the feeling of being real, being alive, that he whispers – without thinking – those two words. — "Hurt me."

Harry needs to feel something, even if it's pain. Louis gives what he needs.

YOU GOTTA DO THE CLASSIC “YOU BELONG WITH ME”

you belong with me

event posters are all found on pinterest btw!

wilbur soot x gn! reader

tws: mentions of cheating

notes: welcome to the very first post from the 200 follower event! starting off strong and classic with YBWM! this song holds so much love in my heart as a elder swiftie (i still remember buying her debut album way back when... i watched the 2008 vmas live..... wilid)

word count: 1.1k (these are blurbs so they wont be as long as my usual incoherent ramblings)

taglist: @l0veb0mb1ng / @core-queen / @lillylvjy

You’d never wanted to shake sense into your best friend Wilbur more than in this exact moment. You two were hanging out after school, sitting in the spare music room and goofing off, when his phone started blaring his ringtone. Now, even from the otherside of the room, you could hear his girlfriend yelling at him. 

You almost wanted to yell at him yourself, to let him know that it doesn’t have to be like this! But you might just be biased, given the fact that you’d been in love with him for years now. 

You and Wilbur had been best friends for years, growing up and being there for each other throughout it all. 

When he started dating this girl, you thought it would be good for you, to help you get over the crush you had for him. It only made it worse, every fight she started with him brought alarm bells to your mind, and you just so desperately wanted to tell him that “It doesn’t have to be like this! I actually understand you!” Every time you refrained from saying anything, it made your chest hurt a bit more.

He set his phone down, sighing softly.

You looked up, fiddling with your shoelaces, “Another fight? What was it this time?”

“Nothing much,” he shrugged, “She was just annoyed I didn’t put three hearts at the end of my text.”

“What?” You laughed sardonically, “Wilbur, that’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.” You couldn’t hold your sharp tongue back.

“I mean, I get it, I guess. It’s important to her, so-” “Yes, but yelling at you about it? That’s the thing. If she really cared about you, she’d just talk to you and be nice about it.”

“It’s fine, really. Now, come on, let’s keep working this section.”

That night, you laid in bed and just wished you could get past your own shyness to tell him. You could picture it in your head, just standing there and almost begging him to see you and realize that you understand him, all of his laughter and quirks. 

A week later, you got a text from him in the middle of the night, asking if you were awake. You were; it was a Saturday, so you were just listening to music and having time to yourself. It wasn’t that much longer before you heard his car park in front of your house. You went downstairs, sneaking him in easily. You walked upstairs to your room, opening the window and grabbing a blanket. You both crawled onto your roof, sitting up there.

“Is everything alright?” You asked him softly.

He shrugged, “Just a bit down, I guess. I needed someone who always makes me feel better.”

You smiled softly at him, lightly swinging your shoulder into his, “Well, I’d say you came to the right place.”

He chuckled, and for a while, you both just stared up at the stars. 

“I feel like I don’t belong here sometimes,” he admitted quietly. 

You turned to him, “What do you mean?”

“I don’t know, I guess… I just feel like everything here kind of sucks.”

You nodded. This was something you two talked about often; how shitty this little town was. “We won’t be here forever, though.”

He hummed, “We could just leave.”

“What?”

“After graduation. We could just pack our bags and head out somewhere, drive until we run out of gas, you know?”

“I guess,” you smiled softly at the idea, “that could be pretty nice.”

He smiled, leaning back a bit. He looked over at you, and you could feel nothing but love in his gaze. “If we can’t find a place we belong, we could alway make one up. Make our own place to belong.”

You didn’t know if it was how late it was or the look he was giving you that pushed you to speak before you could even think about it, “I think I know where you belong.”

“You do?”

You nodded, “Yeah.” You quickly moved to change the subject, not wanting to play homewrecker anymore than you’d felt you may already have. If he was happy, you could learn to be happy for him, you supposed, “What brought this up, anyways?”

He sighed, looking back up at the moon, “I found her kissing another guy.”

“What?”

He nodded, “Yeah. In the band room.”

“Wilbur, that’s awful.”

“We broke up,” he admitted, “and honestly, I should be more upset about it.”

“Are you not upset about it? I mean, she cheated on you.”

“I am, a bit. But I kind of feel relieved. I think you were right about her.”

You flushed slightly, “What do you mean?” He chuckled, giving you a grin, “Oh, please. I know you hated her. You may have acted otherwise, but we’ve known each other for years. I know you just as well as you know me. I could see it on your face.” You smiled lightly, “I guess I never thought about that. I did hate her, but I just didn’t want to say anything because I thought if you were happy, then I should support it.”

“That’s nice of you. I think I dodged a bullet though, to be honest.”

You nodded, and you both returned to comfortable silence. 

He broke it once again, “What did you mean? When you said you know where I belong?”

You bit your lip. Here goes nothing. “You said it yourself. I know you. So, I dunno, I think what you’ve been looking for has been here with me the whole time. I think you belong with me.”

He looked back at you, and he seemed shocked, but with better inspection, he looked like he was calculating you cautiously. 

You kept speaking, mostly out of nerves, “Wilbur, you never even smiled when you were with her. And it killed me, because your smile has become such a comfort for me, just in knowing that you’re happy. I understand you, and I’ve always been here for you. Maybe I don’t know what I’m saying, but I feel like, maybe you’ve been searching for something that’s been under your nose this whole time. I almost wonder if you’ve been oblivious or just stupid to how much I’m into you, because you know me so well, and I don’t honestly think I’ve ever hid it that well. So, yeah. I don’t even think it. You belong with me. Even if it’s as friends.”

He gave no response, and you immediately regretted your admission.

However, he didn’t give you long to regret it before he moved a hand onto your cheek, giving you a loving kiss. You kissed him back just as lovingly, as if you had been waiting for it for years. Which you had been. 

And when he pulled away, foreheads pressed together, you both just grinned.

✤ Mpreg Fics ✤

A series of posts with the top five fics of each category by kudos plus five more hidden gems from that category! Remember to leave kudos and a comment on the fics you enjoyed to show your appreciation! You can find our other recs here.

- Top 5 H/L Fics -

1️⃣ Cold Little Heart by seducedbycurls (T, 194k)

Louis is a soft omega with an abusive past and an alpha child A few months after getting a divorce, Louis meets Harry, an ex-military alpha wolf that offers him something -odd.

In exchange for teaching him how to cook, Harry will babysit his son, Abraham Louis really could use the help.

2️⃣ Queen of Arizella by seducedbycurls (M, 277k)

Stealing from Royalty is punishable by death.

Louis starts over, doing his best to keep his hands at his sides but he is hungry and he tries stealing from the wrong Royal.

Harry is King of Arizella, he needs a Queen and who better than an omega on the run from death? Louis will learn to become the perfect Queen -the perfect fake Queen, but only for a few months.

A fake lover, a fake Queen, but a real bond.

3️⃣ we can take the long way home by eleadore (E, 27k)

“Fertile,” Louis says, and then laughs because it sounds stupid to say out loud. He hasn’t ever really thought of himself in those terms. Baby-making terms. It’s just one of those things his body can do, like exercise, or go without tea. Doesn’t mean he will.

or, The band takes a break. Harry and Louis come together.

4️⃣ Perfect by happilylarry (NR, 117k)

Soulmates had only been in the history books for the past few hundred years, so people were still trying to get the hang of it. From what he's read, back then, if you met your soulmate, that was that. You either chose to be with them and be happy, or be with the one you truly loved and suffer.

Sort of poetic, you know, if he believed in that shit.

5️⃣ Kiss me on the Mouth and Set me Free (but please don't bite) by seducedbycurls (M, 42k)

Harry is the CEO of Flora Corp, Louis is his new secretary.

"...Louis wanted him so badly. Wanted Harry to pick him up, bite him, and break him. Make Louis his, make Louis cry, make Louis a beautiful, plump, pregnant omega..."

HIDDEN GEMS:

💎 Know a Trick or Two by @sadaveniren (E, 44k)

The night before Louis is scheduled for a Portkey to begin training with the Vratsa Vultures in Bulgaria he heads into Muggle London for one last night of fun. A few months later he finds out he’s having a child.

Eleven years ago Harry had a one night stand and now there’s a strange man on his doorstep telling him his daughter is something called a wizard and she’s got a place at the British wizarding school Hogwarts.

Aka the one where Muggle Harry and Wizard Louis have a one night stand and get more than they bargained out of it.

💎 My Kind of Rain by @lululawrence (NR, 30k)

Louis Tomlinson is a household name after hitting number one on the country music charts with four songs over the last three years. It's time for his third headlining tour, his biggest yet, while he finishes up his third highly anticipated album.

Personally, though, the past year or two have been rough. He's dealing with the loss of his mother and the fact his long term partner had cheated on him before breaking off their engagement. Despite it all, the stage has always been an escape for him and he's ready to be performing again.

Harry Styles is Louis' opening act this tour and he seems nice enough. His fiancé leaves something to be desired, but overall, Louis can't complain.

Or the Tim McGraw/Faith Hill AU where Louis is Tim, Harry is Faith, and just when Louis thinks he is going to get some rest, his entire world turns upside down thanks to the man with curly hair and the voice that seems to sing right to Louis' heart.

💎 (It's New) The Shape of Your Body by @fallinglikethis (M, 18k)

Taking a deep breath, Louis tears open the packet and holds the test in his hands. Deep down he already knows what it’s going to say. He can feel the certainty of it in his bones but he needs to see it. He needs confirmation.

Movies always make it look like you have to wait a bit to know, like you have to set a timer and give it a few minutes, wringing your hands for an answer. Even the box says it’ll take time, but it actually only takes a second after Louis pees on the strip to see the two pink lines appear that tell him what he already knew. He’s pregnant.

“Oh god,” he breathes, staring down at it. And just like he’d known the test would be positive, he knows now that everything about his life is about to change.

💎 Another One For The Road by @reminiscingintherain (T, 15k)

She looked up at Louis with a smile. "Congratulations Louis. You're pregnant." "Oh fuck," he said softly, before his eyes rolled up into the back of his head and he promptly passed out.

Or the one where Louis' on tour when he finds out the hard way that men can get pregnant too....

💎 save me, call me baby by delsicle / @eeveedel

Louis didn't plan for him and his husband to be pregnant at the same time. Somehow, it works out.

An omega/omega love story in three snapshots.

ENJOY!

Link to Publicity Pt.1

Being a singer, songwriter, and all-around musical artist was a lot harder to accomplish than people gave you credit for. Demands were all you'd grown used to from fans and your record label as you had gone on a 5-year hiatus.

Scrolling away on your phone you sigh, at an influx of fan emails, comments, likes, and shares on each platform your social celebrity presence graced.

However one in particular had caught your eye...well ear more accurately. Tik tok was one of your favorite pastimes, and on this specific post, \ there was someone mashing together two songs. One of your own, and one from a separate band You immediately fly to the comments, taking in the nice, familiar melody as your vocals come in paired with the lead singer.

-Holy shit this is actually really good -Wait this eatttsss -someone tag her in the comments i NEED them to -collab like yesterday- reply: yeah if she ever hops her ass outta retirement- WE MISS YOU QUEEN reply: honestly i dont see this hype this mashup kinda ass -Gorillaz x Y/n Collab whennn???

You chuckle, scrolling past comments as you note the artists. Huh, when was the last time you'd heard from Gorillaz? Last you heard they were on hiatus far longer than you had been and-

Wait....

Taking a breath you press the record icon, fluffing your hair and testing a 'glamour' filter before filming. And right as you posted, the glorious internet we WILD.

-Somewhere in Los Angeles-

"Check this out," Noodle smiles, turning her phone screen to the two gentlemen before her.

"Oh, that's that one girl uhhh, Y/n?" Russel confirms as Noodle nods, your stitch of the video playing amongst their conversation.

"If we get this all the way to the UK...I'll collaborate with Gorillaz to commemorate the end of our hiatus. That is if they are accepting of my invitation!" You challenge, with a smile.

"Ah, we don't need to do all tha'" Murdoc grumbles, plopping into the seat before kicking his boots up on the table. No decorum.

"What're you talking about? You know how cool that would be?" Noodle is already convinced, turning the phone back to the group.

Despite the bickering, 2D's eyes are glued to the screen. Pretty girl from the States. Her hair was wow...and that smile? The way she lowkey called them out for being gone but also herself...the confidence to request a collab?

"Noodle's got a point. We could add her to the new album before it drops." Russel includes, a smile already over his features

2 outta four convinced

"Y'know how expensive collabs are? You runnin' my pockets into the groun' " Murdoc grumbles again, glancing back down at the screen as the video loops.

He presses the stitch icon to watch the original before folding his arms over his chest in thought.

" Think we should 'ave a go at it? I mean, she invited us?" 2D finally pipes up, gaining his bandmates' attention.

Murdoc's been overrulled with a whopping 3 outta 4.

"Oh you would wan' to collab you dog-" Murdoc scoffs, despite being one to talk.

That man probably had more illegitimate children than there were stars on the flag- 2D opens his mouth to bicker and respond back but Noodle beats him to it.

"Well, we don't have a choice because I already contacted her team." Noodle interrupts, flashing the email.

"Since when the hell 'ave you had control over media and collabs?!" Murdoc shrieks

-Meanwhile-

You'd gone from vanished to trending in a matter of minutes. People in your comments were thriving off the fact that their favorite artist/artists would possibly be coming out of their hiatus over some silly mash-up! It didn't take long for word to spread from the States all the way to the UK because, within 2-3 hours, you received an email.

It was fairly simple and friendly acceptance to your collab invitation...something you knew was a possibility but, fuck it was happening now!?

Apparently, the Gorillaz guitarist, Noodle, said the whole band had seen your video and were wondering if you were serious about a collab. The combination of your talents would surely kickstart your careers once again and besides, what kind of celebrities would you be if you didn't give the people wanted?

Good fuckin music.

You pause for a moment, thinking this could easily be a scam, but upon further examination (and a brief chat with your media team who hadn't approved your video at all (yeah they were pissy about it)) you were sure you had the right people.

According to your coordinators, you’d been booked to fly out to LA within a day! Fuck things were happening fast and the sudden dread from 5 years prior managed to worm its way into your chest, sinking further into your stomach.

Shit.

Shit this was actually happening

SHIT!

You stand from your bed, now pacing as your breath quickens. When was the last time you wrote a song?! Hell, when was the last time you touched a fucking keyboard, or a microphone, or a fucking synthesizer?! When was the last time you'd opened your lyric book?

You scramble, thinking of the next best thing to distract yourself but the notion was cut short when your phone rang. With a deep breath, you answer, the fate time call immediately revealing a woman with dark, black hair and large round 3D-esque glasses. She has this huge smile on her face and faint bickering can be heard in her background.

You both speak,

"Hi!"

"Helloo!"

The two of you giggle and the woman who you soon learned to be THE Noodle who had contacted you prior, was wondering about your travel dates.

"You'll be headed this way in a day or two?" She confirms as you nod.

"So soon I know but, good to get started while the creative juices are still flowing. It's an honor to be able to work with such talented artists like yourselves." You compliment, hearing a gruff, more rugged voice call out,

"She's a nice one in' she? All in the day's work darling all in the day's work-" in the back before swiftly being cut off.

"We can't wait to have you! I'm sure we can all come up with something together, you've got quite the skillset." Noodle compliments back, the bond between girls only growing by the minute.

The two of you would get along just fine.

The conversation didn't last much longer though, because your team works damn near fast as the speed of light. Before you knew it you were being escorted onto a plane with a nice first class seat on its way back to your home state. With the occasional photo and autograph, the airport went a lot smoother than usual.

Once the plane had taken off, your 6 hour flight was filled with the very band you'd be collaborating with. From the discography to lore, history, and drama, you were determined to know as much about these guys as you could...

-6 grueling flight hours later-

It had been a while since you'd been home. The salty sea air of LA warms you to your core and the sun paints the sky a vibrant blue. Your luggage is carted away and just as you manage to shuffle past fans down an escalator. There, someone with a sign is already waiting for you.

Scribbled in chicken scratch damn near is your name on a large white sign. Holding said sign is a lanky-looking guy, hair bright blue and eyes black as night.

Part of you considers walking past him and pretending you dont know who it is, but your stupid 6 hour research journey told you everything you needed to know. Besides, your heart knew that would be quite rude to ignore the lead singer going out of his way to grab you from the busy airport.

Don't they have people for that though? To transport celebrities without making a fuss? This guy might as well be walking around with a target on him with his rather defining features. And what's up with that sign?! Isn't the whole point to avoid attention and a swarm of fans???

"Hi! I'm uhh, assuming you're-"

"Oh my god is that 2D!? AND Y/N?!?! She was serious, oh my god look!"

The speed at which your head moves to the direction of the sound ought to have given you whiplash. A swarm of people began to grow, and the flash of cameras and video surrounded the two of you as your heart raced. This is why you hire people for this shit.

A sea of fans demand autographs and pictures as they closed in, each of them asking different questions faster than you can process them

"Are you happy to be back in LA?"

"Over here Please can I get a picture!"

"Is there a reason you two are here alone?"

It's hot, the breath of now hundreds circling as your stomach turns, each poke and taunt making it harder to breathe as the airport terminal spins. Fuck you needed to get out. NOW.

"Why isn't the rest of Gorillaz here?"

"Are you nervous about your new song?"

"What happened at your last show?"

"Why did you run away y/n?"

Turning almost comically, your eyes narrow, sweat beaded and falling down the side of your face.

"What?"

You're soon being dragged, the one faceless figure in the crowd not bothering to follow the swarm as they rush after you and the blue-ette. Speaking of which, that was who was dragging you now, trying to run away from feral fans.

His fingers are long and cold against the skin of your wrist as he tries to navigate not only out the airport but also away from the swarm that is slowly dispersing.

So, this was the man behind those gorgeous vocals? You couldn't help but recall the entirety of their discography, that echo, something so unique about his sound. Like a distant, melancholic megaphone.

But when he opened his mouth-

"Murdoc 'ad me come pick you up! I-" You can't help the sound that comes out of your mouth. It's like a mix of complete shock and your face is about the same. You had no idea what you were expecting. The accent was a given, duh. But, there was no way that was his voice?! How could you have missed this in your research???

"Y'ok miss? Look like y' seen a ghost?" He asks again, his voice snapping you back to reality.

Oh that was 100% his voice, he was NOT fucking with you. And this was gonna be a long car ride.

Author's Note: OKAYYY so im gonna make some more parts this is definitely gonna have some smut and hopefully while I on winter break I can update my masterlist- Ayway see yall next chapter, yes I know this is cringe but I am free lmao

#classic rock news📌

Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd sold the rights to the music catalog of their songs. The deal with Sony amounted to $400 million.

The deal includes the rights to the band's name and portraits of its members, which allows Sony to sell related products (clothing, souvenirs, etc.), as well as produce films and television programs. And, of course, the rights to publish music in various formats. The copyright remained with the musicians.

This deal became another in the list of high-profile purchases of Sony Music that have already taken place, in the summer of 2024, it managed to acquire the rights to the Queen group's music catalog for $ 1.27 billion.

James Blunt

British pop-rock artist James Blunt promised on his social networks that he would change his name if the anniversary reissue of his first album Back to Bedlam (2004) again took first place in the British charts. According to the musician, fans will be able to choose a new name for him.

In 2005, 2.4 million copies of Blunt's debut album were sold. In 2009, their number reached 3 million, which made the longplay the best-selling in Britain in the 2000s. The release includes hits such as You're Beautiful and Goodbye My Lover.

Back to Bedlam will be re-released on October 11.

Tom Hamilton

Life after Aerosmith continues.

Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton said on social media that his new band Close Enemies will give their first concert on October 11 in Nashville. The band also includes drummer Tony Brock, vocalist Chasen Hampton, guitarists Peter Stroud and Trace Foster.

In his post, Hamilton wrote:

"Hi, I need to tell you something about a band called Close Enemies that I play in. We have a bunch of good songs recorded. We are going to release one of them very soon. Meanwhile, on October 11, we are performing in Nashville at an institution called the Eastside Bowl. Please come!"

Later, the bassist also added that the band rehearses a lot: "The songs sound amazing."

A book about Bon Jovi will be released for the band's 40th anniversary.

Genesis Publications and Bon Jovi have announced the book "Bon Jovi Forever". BON JOVI gave Genesis unprecedented access to their entire archive to create an exciting journey through 40 years of the band's history, during which she created 16 albums.

Jon Bon Jovi says: "I never planned what I want people to feel when listening to our songs. But when you compose, it's often the songs that are closest to you that pass the test of time and turn out to be closest to others. If the song is written from the heart, and not just 'worked out', there is a high probability that the listener will find something important in your story."

John himself and his colleagues actively participated in the work on "Bon Jovi Forever", so the publication will have the status of an official one. The exact date has not yet been announced, but it is already known that the book will be available both separately and as part of a box set, which will also include an exclusive seven-inch vinyl record.

The trailer for the documentary "Elton John: Never Too Late" has been released.

"The film follows Elton John as he looks back on his life and the amazing early days of his 50-year career on this emotionally charged, personal and inspiring journey," the synopsis says. - As he prepares for his last concert in North America, at Dodger Stadium, Elton takes us back in time to talk about the extraordinary highs and heartbreaking lows of his early years and how he overcame adversity, violence and addiction to become the icon he is today.

The documentary, directed by R. J. Cutler and David Furnish, premiered on September 6 at the Toronto Film Festival. The world premiere will take place on December 13 on Disney+.

Legendary Yes and King Crimson drummer Bill Bruford, who worked as a liaison with music for 15 years, returned to the stage as a special guest of the British jazz band Pete Roth Trio.

The band's website uses the phrase "jazz without borders". The musician is comforted that "they are creating jazz for a new worship of music that is free from the usual jazz stereotypes."

Bruford announced that he would start recording and releasing soon, on January 1, 2009. His last public concert with Earthworks took place on July 31, 2008. After retiring, Bruford earned a doctorate in music from the University of Surrey and wrote an autobiography, "Bill Bruford: The Autobiography. Yes, King Crimson, Earthworks and More”, which received many positive reviews.

With the exception of a brief participation in the Ann Bailey's Soul House cover band, Bruford's single foundation for the drum kit took place in 2023 at a concert in memory of John Wetton, who participated in the song "Let's Stick Together".

The British band The Cure

She confirmed rumors that their album "Songs Of A Lost World" will be released on November 1. The longplay will be the first for the artists since 2008.

The band also presented the first track from the release of "Alone". According to The Cure's frontman Robert Smith, the nearly seven-minute song helped him understand the focus of the entire album.

The full-length album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales. The gloomy, minimalistic cover was created by a long-time colleague of the team, designer and photographer Andy Vella. The work depicts the 1975 sculpture Bagatelle by Slovenian Janez Pirnat.

Ozzy Osbourne named the most favorite song from his repertoire.

"I have a real weakness for the ballad Mama, I'm Coming Home. The lyrics were written by Lemmy — but I described to him exactly what I wanted to say in it, that is, I set the content," says Ozzy in an interview with Classic Rock. "But I'll tell you what, I don't really have a personal favorite. People always ask me which is my favorite album that I've made — and I don't have one! All my recordings reflect either the fun and chaos or the terrible circumstances that happened to me. Each of them is a reflection of me at that time."

The song "Mama, I'm Coming Home" was released as the second single from the album "No More Tears" in late November 1991. It was one of two collaborations with Lemmy on the album, the other being "Hellraiser".

In an interview with Classic Rock in 2013, Lemmy recalled how he came up with the lyrics of the song.

"I came up with this song," said the late Motörhead leader. "He sent me a text about what he would like to sing, and I think he gave me the title, but that's it. I'm good at it because that's how I write our songs — I come up with a title, and then I write a song based on it. Later, Ozzy and I were doing an interview in the same tent at this festival, and one guy asked: "The song Mama I'm Coming Home is the most personal thing you've written. Was she a big jerk to you?" And Ozzy just said, "He wrote it!"

The frontman of the British band Coldplay, Chris Martin, sang one of the new songs of the band in a karaoke bar in Las Vegas under the guise of another person.

Chris Martin took to the stage in a baggy suit, wig, glasses and with an inflatable balloon in his hand. In a local bar, the musician performed the song "All My Love". This track will be part of the band's upcoming album "Moon Music", which is scheduled for release on October 4. There will be a total of ten tracks in the longplay.

In August, Coldplay's "Music of the Spheres" tour became the highest-grossing rock tour of all time. Before that, the record belonged to Elton John.

Ringo Starr announced the cancellation of concerts in Philadelphia and New York due to his illness.

According to the artist's representative on social networks, Ringo caught a cold and the doctor advised him to rest. Starr played a total of 10 concerts before falling ill. His All-Starr Band now includes Steve Lukather, Colin Hay, Warren Ham, Hamish Stewart, Gregg Bissonnette and Buck Johnson.

We wish Ringo to get well and hit the drum again 🥁

Hurt Feelings

Summary: After Loki awakens on Svartalfheim, inexplicably and frustratingly alive and without any sort of plan to speak of, he decides to pay his adoptive father a visit.

Word Count: 5,506

Pairing: N/A

A/N: A little while ago I made this edit because it had been living rent-free in my head since the day Halsey's new album dropped. And then I wrote this.

(Also -- I do want to make a point of saying that the stuff involving the Odinsleep in this fic is an idea I got from a Loki meta post I read years ago. For the life of me, I could not find the post to credit them, so if any of you know the post I'm talking about and can send it to me so I can credit them properly, I'd appreciate it!)

Thank you so much for reading!!

Warnings: Suicide/suicidal ideation (I interpret Loki's "death" in The Dark World as an intentional-but-unsuccessful attempt on his part), miscarriage/fertility issues, grief/loss

Read it on Ao3!

The palace was in an uproar. He supposed that was to be expected, what with the aftermath of an invading attack that left a gaping hole in the side and destroyed half the military, not to mention the crown prince turning traitor and the queen … well, the picture was painted clear enough. The cause didn’t really matter as much as the effect – in the chaos of the moment, no one was paying attention to the rogue Einherjar, limping in from the mountains.

Loki felt slightly crazed as he hurried down the halls. More than slightly, perhaps. He passed a gaggle of serving girls dragging baskets of laundry behind them and fought the urge to cackle in their faces. Poor fools. They didn’t realize a madman was in their midst. Run run, little girls, save yourselves from the beast, the monster in prince’s garb. His chest throbbed beneath his tattered leathers.

He had screamed when he woke up on Svartalfheim, screamed until his throat tore and his mouth flooded with blood. It wasn’t fair. He had executed it so perfectly, Loki’s heroic end, saved his brother and avenged his mother in one fell swoop, tied up all the loose ends and then the curtains could fall, and he could let himself fade to black and finally know peace. Thor had even held him in the end, cradled him almost like a child, and for a moment he did feel like a child again, a little boy toddling after his big brother in some alternate reality where nothing ever went wrong and his love felt warm and safe instead of a guilty stab of betrayal through his weary beating heart. His fear bled out with the rest of him. He closed his eyes in his brother’s arms and felt something like happiness. The end of Loki Laufeyson. Perhaps when he opened them again, she’d be there, waiting.

But Valhalla had to spit him back out.

His boots should have clicked on the marble floor, but beneath the shining visage of his golden Einherjar armor was only soft leather soles. A band of guards rounded the corner, huffing beneath their helmets with the exhaustion of men run ragged through the night. Loki pressed his nails deeper into his palm as they passed. The staff he held was not truly there, the same trick of light and magic as his armor. But they said nothing as they hurried along, too absorbed in their own troubles to spare him a second glance. He stifled his chuckle. Truly, he was the only one in the palace who might have been capable of noticing something amiss.

Well, he and …

Loki swallowed. Best not to think of it.

He had no plan. What was there to do? He hadn’t expected to draw breath again, hadn’t bothered to hatch an escape. Once the sting of finding himself alive had worn off, Loki had stumbled to his feet in a sort of blurry haze. What to do? Where to go? What was the point?

I’ll tell Father what you did here today.

Of course. Of course.

It was all Odin’s fault. The thought sliced through the fog with a piercing clarity. Odin was behind it all – every miserable breath Loki had ever drawn came back to the All Father’s plotting. It had all started with him, perhaps it must end with him too. Loki stumbled back up the hill with new purpose. Thor’s stolen skiff lay abandoned where they had left it. Kin-slaying was a far cry from the heroic sacrifice he had envisioned, but then again it wasn’t proper kin-slaying, was it?

Your birthright was to die. If I had not taken you in, you would not be here now to hate me.

Such a benevolent god, his false father. How soon had he come to regret his self-serving benevolence, Loki wondered? Perhaps the moment he dumped a squalling Jotun babe in his wife’s arms and realized what it was that he had dragged home.

It mattered not. Loki was going to bring this tale to an end.

He recognized the Einherjar stationed outside Odin’s quarters – Ulric, a fixture on the king’s guard since Loki was a small boy, whisps of his greying hair peeping out from beneath his helmet. Loki puffed out his chest with a bit of Einherjar swagger.

“I must speak with the All Father.”

Ulric frowned down at him – the old goat had always been a bit of a sourpuss. “The All Father is not to be disturbed.”

“It’s urgent.”

The frown deepened. All at once Loki thought of a long-forgotten dinner, back when his feet still dangled in the air when he sat at the table, when he had whispered to Thor that Ulric looked like a bedraggled Nidavellian cat. His brother had laughed so hard that he spat his cider spat out through his nostrils. Loki pushed the memory away. It left him feeling cold.

“Leave your message with me, then,” Ulric was saying. “I’ll see that he gets it.”

“I’m sworn to deliver it myself.” An improvised detail, but Loki knew it was a good touch. He stepped forward, dropping his voice lower. “It involves the prince.”

Ulric was at a loss. Loki could see it in his eyes – he was a loyal man, and a devoted follower of Odin, one who would rather fall on his sword than disobey a command from his beloved All Father, but he held a man’s honor in the highest regard. A bit of a contradiction, that, but Loki rather felt the irony was lost on him.

“He’s not here …” he said at last. “He’s in the Queen’s chambers.”

Loki started a bit. “The Queen?”

“Yes. He asked not to be disturbed, but I know him to be desperate of news of Thor.”

Under normal circumstances, Loki might have bristled at the assumption that Thor was the prince of whom he spoke, but he felt too shaken to be annoyed. He forced himself to bow.

“Thank you, sir.”

His chest was aching again.

A confrontation in Frigga’s chambers was not what he had envisioned. Perhaps it would be best, though – after all, she was all there was standing between Odin and him by the end. There had to be something symbolic that their ending would come through hers, the final snap of thread holding it all together. Yes, that was it. This would be good. This would be closure. This would be what he needed. Loki wasn’t sure why he was trembling.

His feet carried him down the halls more by their own accord than at any direction from him. He knew this path well. How often had he sought out these rooms throughout his youth, in need of guidance or instruction or comfort or company? Loki had been a lonely child, after all. He hid behind his mother’s skirts for far longer than most found acceptable of a young boy. And she had always been happy to hide him.

You might want to take the stairs to the left.

It didn’t matter. It didn’t matter. That thing would never draw breath again. He avenged her. He avenged her.

It didn’t matter.

He passed another gaggle of giggling maids – what they were tittering about, he didn’t quite catch. There wasn’t exactly much worth tittering about, if you asked him, but Loki supposed he wouldn’t know. It seemed the maids where always a flurry over something. Like in the weeks leading up to Thor’s botched coronation, or those after Odin feasted the kings and queens of the other realms for nearly a month. Or … or when Frigga revealed she was pregnant with her third child. Loki’s blood turned to ice in his veins.

Different maids had tittered in the halls then, and Loki had been little – barely having begun his formal tutoring. The word “pregnant” had meant nothing. He hadn’t understood the significance of what they were telling him. It was by design, thanks to the web of falsehoods and half-truths his so-called parents had weaved around the Queen’s growing belly. No, all he was allowed to know was that Mama had a baby inside her, and when it came out it would be his little brother. Thor had been ecstatic when he learned the news, practically vibrating with questions as he bounced across the room.

“What’s his name? When will he get here? Does he like me? Will he look like Loki? Was I in your tummy, Mama? Was Loki?”

Norns, what had she said to that? Loki couldn’t remember. He wondered if he might have seen her discomfort, had he known to look for it. Did she glance at Odin, panic sparking in her eyes as her tongue reached for the lie? Had it been there in front of him the whole time? But he had been small – disgustingly small, too small to realize. He remembered the formal announcement in court, how the whole room had buzzed in anticipation when his father (for he was still his father then) declared that the Queen was with child. He remembered being confused. Hadn’t she already been with child? Children, in fact? She was with him, and with Thor – didn’t they count?

It was an upsetting ordeal all around. Loki did not like watching his mother’s belly expand, like it housed some horrible creature waiting to claw its way out. Frigga tried to help him adjust – she encouraged him to lay against her stomach as she read aloud during their nightly storytime, just as he always did, but the feeling of tiny limbs thrashing beneath her skin distressed him to tears, no matter how she tried to reassure him that it was only his baby brother saying hello.

“I don’t want a baby brother!” Loki had sobbed, clinging to her thighs like a vise. “Get rid of it! I don’t want it!”

He would get his wish.

Loki would never forget that dinner, how his mother’s fork had come clattering down to the plate as she lurched forward, the way she gasped his father’s name in a tight, smothered sort of voice that sounded nothing like her at all, how his father had yelled – no, screamed – for the guards and everything collapsed into chaos, how Loki’s body had seemed frozen to his seat when they dragged her away from the table and he realized with a lump in his throat that the front of her skirt was soaked through with crimson.

He hadn’t slept that night. The nursemaids had put his brother and him to bed with placating promises and consolations, but no amount of reassurance could erase the sight of his mother’s bloodless cheeks against the table, or the piercing sound of his father’s terror. Loki lay stiff as a board, breathing quickening as the darkness pressed in around him. Odin All Father was not supposed to be afraid of anything. What did it mean then, that he had screamed at the sight of Mama on the table? What happened to her? Was she … was she …

Eventually it had all become too much.

It was past bedtime, but Loki crept down the halls all the same, bare feet numb against the freezing marble. He had to go find Mama. He had to know she was alright.

But when he pushed open the heavy door to her quarters, he was shocked to find only his father, hunched over her writing desk like a statue, head buried in his hands. He only barely looked up when Loki toddled into the room.

“What are you doing up?” his voice was sharp, hoarse.

“I—” Loki felt petrified in place. He glanced towards the door to his mother’s bedroom, closed with no light behind the crack. “I can’t sleep …”

The sound was painfully small.

His father grunted, already looking away. He shifted in his seat and reached for something laying beside his foot – a bottle, Loki had realized dimly, empty in the flickering candlelight. “You need to stay in your room, Loki.”

“I’m sorry … I was just …” But an excuse never came to mind. He swallowed, glancing at the dark bedroom again.

“Is Mama going to be alright?” his voice came out in a rasp, like he was about to cry. Stupid baby …

Odin closed his eyes. Back then, he had still been in the prime of his life, but that night Loki remembered thinking he looked like a weary old man. He sighed. “Yes. Yes – your mother will be quite fine. She just needs to sleep. As do you.”

Loki recalled nodding out of instinct more than anything else. He stared at the fringed rug on the floor, shivering in his nightclothes. “Yes, sir …”

The rest was hazy. Odin hadn’t taken him back to bed – that much he was certain of. He must have called a servant or someone, perhaps ordered a light sleeping draught for him as well, to see that he slept through the night. All he remembered is that Odin wouldn’t look at him.

At the time, Loki had assumed it was because of what he had said about the baby. Odin wasn’t present when Loki had begged his mother to get rid of it, but he was certain Frigga must have told him what he said. He must have blamed him for it. In retrospect, this was likely just projection on his part. Loki had blamed himself for his mother’s miscarriage, spending the next several weeks wracked with guilt over his words, convinced that he had killed the baby and nearly killed his mother. No wonder Odin wanted nothing to do with him.

It hadn’t been until at least a month later that Frigga had taken him into her lap and told him a secret. “My womb is very sick,” she said, regarding him very seriously. “It doesn’t hold babies the way it should. Your little brother was the fourth baby I’ve lost like this. When I was pregnant with Thor, I nearly lost him too.”

Her voice never wavered – Norns, the strength that had to have taken, so soon after yet another horrific loss, to lay it bare in a child’s terms just so that he would understand that it was not his fault. But as with every moment of his childhood, her kindness was tempered with deceit.

“What about me?” he asked, looking up at her as he pressed his cheek to her chest. “Did you almost lose me too?”

Frigga pressed a kiss to the top of his head, so that he could not see his face. “You were my gift from the Norns,” she whispered against his curls. “Carrying you was the easiest thing I ever did.”

In front of him. The whole time. He was just too small to realize.

That had to be why Odin could not bear to look at him, though. How disgusted must he had been, drowning in grief for his lost trueborn child, when the little monstrosity he picked up as a glorified war prize came hobbling in seeking his comfort?

Your birthright was to die.

Loki huffed a laugh beneath his helmet. Bitter, old man? Angry that I lived instead of all your wretched little spares? You have no one to blame but yourself.

The door to his mother’s chambers was the same as it had always been. It was a warm oak, sparkling with little silver rivets that had always reminded him of the stars. Loki stared at it for a moment, paralyzed. It no longer loomed over him the way it had as a child, but it seemed to have grown far heavier.

If he closed his eyes, he could picture the light crackling into the hall as he heaved the door open, and she’d still be there, her honey curls cascading down her shoulder as she thumbed through some new spell-book, and she’d look up at him and smile, oh Loki, I was just thinking of you – here, come look at this, and he’d sink into the cushions next to her as she explained this new discovery she was fascinated with, and perhaps he might press his cheek against her shoulder as she did – remember when he used to do that? Or before, when he used to crawl into her lap and cling to her dress like an anxious little possum? The others would make fun of him, he remembered – are we to call you Loki Friggason? – but she always wrapped her arms around him just the same.

“Boys here grow up too fast,” she mused once, holding him beside the sparring pit as they watched Thor clunkily practice his lessons with a wooden stick. Odin had been there too, watching from the other side of the pit. Even in the earliest days, he always came to watch Thor practice. “Some days I fear I’ll blink and you’ll both be gone.”

Loki had been confused. “Gone where, Mama?”

“I don’t know. Far away from me.” There was a commotion in the pit – Thor’s practice sword, clattering to the ground as he lost his balance lunging at his instructor. Odin called out something that Loki couldn’t quite hear. She sighed. “But that’s a long way off yet, thankfully.”

He frowned. “I don’t want to go far away,” he declared, a desperate insistence beneath his voice. His eyes prickled with tears at just the thought. “I’m going to stay with you forever.”

Frigga exhaled a soft laugh. “That’s a lovely thought.”

Loki opened his eyes, and the voices faded back into memory. I’m going to stay with you forever. He wondered if she had thought of that promise the night on the Bifrost, the night he let go.

I suppose we were all lying about something.

The door stood, unchanging. Loki breathed in, then exhaled through his teeth. None of it had been real. No point in wasting tears on it now.

He dropped the illusion, exchanging his false spear for a dagger whose blade would not shatter on impact. Breathe. Breathe. The door was locked. No matter. The lock clicked beneath his spell. His heart was pounding in his chest. He took one last breath, then stepped into his mother’s room.

It still smelled like her. Norns, it smelled like her. Warm and fresh, like new sprouts in the garden on a pleasant spring day – it was her, it was like she was there. He could believe it, that perhaps she was just working in the back room, and would be out to greet him once she heard the door. The sofa was the same, as was her little writing desk in the corner with its wooden chair. Her bookshelves still lined the back wall, heavy with their papered fruits, spell-books ordered in the same organized chaos that she always left them. The only difference was the figure silently silhouetted at the window.

The king stood with his hands clasped behind his back, staring out at the smoking ruins of the garden below. He did not turn as Loki entered, didn’t even flinch. The door fell closed behind him with a heady thud. Loki stood in the foyer, stock-still as a statue. This was the moment, to rush him from behind and plunge the dagger in his spine before he had even bothered to look up, but for some reason Loki’s limbs wouldn’t move.  

“I wondered if you might come.”

Irritation startled him out of his stupor. “Did you now?”

Odin nodded. “We had to keep your cradle in here, you know,” he said. “You’d fuss through the night if you weren’t with her.”

Loki was rooted to the floor. His head was spinning. He had been prepared for fury and violence, biting words that tasted like poison on his lips, not … quiet reminiscing. The king continued blithely on. “I had feared that our story would not be believed, what with the suddenness of it all, but no one ever questioned that she was your mother.”

Am I not your mother?

There were tears pooling in the corner of his eyes, hot and angry.

You’re not.

Loki spat. “How convenient.”

“Perhaps it was.” Odin hummed. He stretched his shoulders back, grunting at the crackling of bones beneath his cloak. “The sleep is coming on again. I can feel it.” He huffed a sigh, shaking his head. “Twice in less than half a decade. Perhaps I am getting old.”

Loki scowled. “Do you want my pity, then? Is that it?” He stalked across the room, acid burning his tongue with every step. “Shall I pen an elegy? The mighty King Odin, collapsing under the weight of his failings—”

Odin was shaking his head. “You would not understand—”

“If all you intend is to speak down to me, at least do me the courtesy of facing me as you do.”

To his surprise, he did as he was asked. Loki started a bit when he turned – he had not seen his false-father since his sentencing. What was that, a year ago? Odin seemed to have aged several hundred in that time. Wane and weary, he regarded Loki with lifeless eyes. His gaze landed on his chest.

“… was that him?”

Loki didn’t need to ask who him was. His throat was suddenly very tight. He nodded.

“And he’s …?”

“Dead.”

Odin jerked his head, a brief nod. “Good.” Abandoning the window entirely, he made his way to the other side of the room, where Frigga’s writing desk sat abandoned across from her sofa. “One less failing to weigh me down.”

Loki swallowed. His mouth tasted bitter. “Don’t tell me you’re finally remorseful,” he snapped as he followed him. “Now, of all times?” Of course he would do this. Of course he would find a way to take Loki’s last chance at triumph and turn it into an opera on his own suffering. Loki ought to have stabbed him the back when he had the chance.

Pulling out the chair, Odin scoffed. “You think I haven’t always been remorseful? That I’m proud with what you became?”

Loki was seeing red. “What you turned me into, you mean?” he retorted. “Or what you always knew I was? Tell me, my liege, what was it you were hoping for? How might I have earned your pride?”

The king closed his eye, as if this was some nagging fly he was too tired to swat. “Must we do this now?”

Loki laughed humorlessly. “What else is there to do here?”

He huffed, a sound that under different circumstances Loki might have almost mistaken for a chuckle, but it faded as quickly as it appeared. Instead, he let out a sigh.

“I wish I had told you the truth,” he said, turning his eye back towards Loki. “Truly. I’ll wish that until the day I die.”

Loki tried to swallow the lump in his throat. He might have believed him, too, somewhere in another universe where the All Father was capable of sincerity. “But you didn’t.”

“I thought—”

“You thought I was a monster.”

Odin sighed again, pinching the bridge of his nose. Weary old man. He did look truly pitiful. “You’ll never believe me, will you? No matter what I do. If I had told you the truth from the beginning, perhaps then I could look at you and know that you believe me when I say I loved you truly as my son.”

“Perhaps.” Love. Loki wanted to spit the word, but he hadn’t the energy. He pictured a reality where he had known the truth, where the hands that clung to his mother’s skirts were blue and ridged. The thought was sickening. “But it wouldn’t have changed why you took me in the first place, would it? It wouldn’t have changed what I am.” Loki scoffed at  the idea. “What more would it have done, than eased your conscience?”

“What would you have had me do, then?” Odin snapped. The sound was a relief. “Left you to die?”

“YES!” he yelled, so loud that Odin jumped. He shook his head, smiling bitterly even as his vision went blurry. “Would that not have been better for us all?”

For the first time in his memory, the All Father appeared at a loss for words. He opened his mouth, only to close it again, crumbling back into the chair as if his legs had given out. The sight should have been more satisfying than it was. Instead, Loki only felt sick.

For a moment, the room was silent. When Odin finally looked up again, his voice was gravelly. “Why did you come back here?”

“I told myself I’d kill you.” His chest felt hollow.

A heartbeat passed.

“Then why haven’t you?”

Two heartbeats. Three.

“… I don’t know.” The words came out in barely a whisper. What was he doing here? What did he want? He sank down onto the sofa, letting the cushions engulf his thighs as they always did. It felt so much emptier alone.

Boys here grow up too fast.

Would he ever stop longing for the lie?

“When you first brought me back to her—” he wasn’t sure who was more surprised by the sound of his voice, Odin or himself. “… how did she respond?”

“Frigga?” Odin leaned back in the wooden chair, gaze distant. “She had been surprised, of course. You were … extremely unexpected. But she bonded with you very quickly. After all, only a year earlier she had had her third miscarriage. Neither of us expected she’d be able to have another child.”

Loki’s voice was flat. “So I was a replacement.” He supposed he had known that in his heart, ever since he learned the truth. Why else would Frigga have taken in some half-dead Jotun reject, unless she had been desperate to soothe her own grief?

But Odin was firm. “You were a gift,” he said, in a tone that left no room for argument. “She wholeheartedly believed she was meant to be your mother.”

You were my gift from the Norns.

Loki looked away. He felt his father’s gaze on him, and hated how small it left him feeling. Spare me your pity. When Odin spoke again, his voice was soft.

“To tell the truth, I’d often forget that you didn’t come from us. You’re so much like her.”

He hated that he was crying. He felt his face crumbling, felt the tears bubbling over and leaving slimy frigid tracks down his cheeks, and he hated it. He hated feeling everything.

Why can’t I just hate them?

He wished he had known. He wished he had never found out. He wished Odin had never laid eyes on him. He wished he could still call him father. Laufeyson. Odinson. Friggason. None of them fit, and yet he clung to each in some violent way. Pathetic.

 A cough startled him from his thoughts – across from him, Odin had gone very pale. He grunted, leaning forward with his hand pressed to his beard. “Damn it all.”

The realization hit him like the flat side of a sword. Despite everything, despite the tears still wet on his cheeks, Loki couldn’t help but laugh. “You can’t be serious.”

Odin heaved a breath, listing in his chair. “Frigga – then with Thor’s damned plotting—” he grunted again and grabbed at the chair arm. “It all sped it up, I imagine.”

It was too absurd. What were the odds? Loki shook his head, smile bitter on his lips. “It really does kill you to have to speak with me, doesn’t it?”

The king did not answer. Instead, he only gasped as he tipped forward, the chair creaking as it tipped with him – he would’ve fallen over had Loki not rushed to his side. His chest seared in pain as he propped the old man up. Why had he done that? Loki hadn’t the slightest idea. Some part of him, hovering above his body, laughed at the irony. You come here to kill him, and here you are cradling him. Some assassin you’d make.

Odin was mumbling to himself, words slurring together. “Can’t happen now – not now – with the realm in shambles—”

There was something satisfying about his distress. Childish, he knew, but Loki relished in it all the same. For once, he was not the one weeping and desperately clinging. “I’m afraid you reap what you sow, my king.”

Odin looked up at him. His pale eye was wide and frightened, almost pleading, and it seemed to cut right through him. “Loki—”

Loki shifted uncomfortably. “Well, I’m not sure what you want me to do about it. You condemned me, remember?”

But the king said nothing more. One last desperate exhale, and then his eyes were slipping closed, his head rolling back on his shoulders as his weight went slack and his body limp. Loki cursed, bracing himself against the floor to hold him up – damn, the old bastard was heavy – twisting his torso as the chair tipped over so he might lay the man down on the floor properly. Odin said nothing. Loki exhaled through his teeth, running his fingers back through his hair.

Well, now what?

If left here, alone and without the care and treatment of the healers, Odin could easily die. A perfect murder, one in which Loki could walk away from completely unimplicated. But walk away to where? It seemed he was meant to live now, as inconvenient as that reality was. He could disappear somewhere, melt into the folds of the galaxy at large, find safety hidden beneath a new name. But … could he really?

He looked up, at the tower of shelves and spell-books that loomed over the two of them, his mother’s pride and joy. Frigga’s presence seemed to loom with it. Loki sighed. She was not his mother, not really, but try as he might, he could not wrest the title from her ghost. Try as he might, he could not stop loving her as one.

And he could not leave her husband to die on her bedroom floor.

Loki huffed, pushing himself to his feet with more effort than it should have taken. He supposed he should go to the kingsguard. He could dawn the same mask he had worn when he arrived, go to Ulric in a frenzy and say that when he had gone to deliver his message he had found the All Father unresponsive on the carpet. Yes, that would have to do – he could slip away in the madness that would ensue upon the realization that the king had gone into Odinsleep so soon, with no heir to name regent. Loki exhaled a bitter laugh. Oh, how he wished he could stick around to witness that power grab.

Although … Loki paused. Perhaps he should stay. He looked to the window, at the bloodred sunset cutting through the sky. There were consequences to living, too – ones that he had known he would not have to face should he meet a heroic end.

There will be no realm, no barren moon, no crevice where he can’t find you.

He shivered.

Perhaps … they would not seek him out on Asgard, not if Asgard believed him to be dead. Even if they did not believe the tale of his demise, surely they would not think him fool enough to hide in such plain sight.

And with no heir to name regent … Loki’s eyes drifted back to Odin, still and peaceful in his slumber. He smirked.

Now there’s a thought.

…

Ulric breathed a sigh of relief when Odin strode back into the throne room, as cool and collected as ever. He had started to worry – the All Father had given him strict orders to be left undisturbed, but it had been several hours and given the state of things he had begun to fear that perhaps it was a mistake leave him alone and unguarded.  

“Your majesty—” The king silenced him with a brisk hand.

“Prince Loki is dead,” he said. “Killed in battle on Svartalfheim.”

Ulric felt his fellow Einherjar stiffen beside him. This was news indeed. Odin spoke very little of his fallen son, but they all could tell that the matter had always weighed heavily on his soul. And who could blame him? To have a child betray you so deeply … Ulric thought of his own young sons and shivered.

He tried again. “Your majesty—" but the king only brushed him off again.

“It’s of no matter,” he said, but clearly it was – he stood before the throne, staring at it as if it were some violent beast lay ready to strike. Ulric swallowed.

“What is to be done, my liege?”

Odin was silent, lost to the labyrinth of his thoughts. It was only a moment though before he came to, shaking his head and clearing his throat.

“We are to move forward,” he said finally, mounting the steps and taking his seat upon it. “After all, we cannot afford to wallow forever.”

Alex turner; what is next career- wise for this man. Is he making another record and with which group?

All readings are alleged and for entertainment purposes only; please take each reading with a grain of salt.

What is Alex’s next album going to look like: 8 of cups reversed, 10 of cups reversed, ace of swords reversed, the high priestess, 2 of pentacles - this album will be one about feeling lost in a relationship, breakups, lack of communication between partners and the hope for better days. I believe it’s going to be a blend of the different styles Alex is known for and will be one that fans will enjoy, but for him this album is deeply personal and something he’s going to pour his heart and soul into.

Will this album be through the Arctic Monkeys: 8 of wands, Queen of wands reversed, 6 of swords - I do not see this as an album from this group particularly. This is something that may be experimental and possibly a solo work from him. I don’t think Alex feels like this is something he wants this group to work on together and has already abandoned that possibility.

Will this be a work with Dizzee Rascal: the hierophant reversed - no. This is not something in that style and also not something that was planned within this group.

Will this be with Reverend and the Makers: the hangman reversed - it could be a collaboration with them or they may partner up for some songs but I think it might be too soon to tell of that.

What does Alex feel about this work: the devil - the events that lead to the making of this album have made him angry and he wants to express that anger the best way he can. He might feel petty or bitter about this turn of events and has his mind in a tailspin; doing this will most likely put his mind at ease.

When should fans hear of the album: some time this week fans may see photos of Alex in the studio or sightings will be posted online; this is what he is working on.

Oracle card: tide of transition - things are changing for Alex and he is embracing this change; fans will have to also embrace the new music style that will come alone with it. These emotions are what he is feeling right now and he wants to know or show others who are feeling exactly as he does.

Hi! I was wondering if you could write something about Matty Healy maybe meeting his celebrity crush (reader, who is also a musician) at an award show? You don’t have to of course, I just really like your writing and thought it could be a cool idea :)

Ps. I hope you have a lovely day <3

Hi, thank you so much! You're very sweet 🥹❤️

I don’t usually do famous!readers so this is practically a first attempt. I kinda imagine her to have a whole Evelyn Hugo aesthetic (hence the green dress)

The Frontman

You lift your floor-length gown just above your ankles as you climb up the stairs of the O2. It’s not a quiet evening by any means, there are photographers all around you. You know these photos are being live posted on Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and being put on lists like best dressed and worst dressed. So of course you had to bring your A-game.

There’s even more pressure tonight—you’ve been nominated in three categories right alongside some of your favourite artists. The anticipation to meet them, to see them perform, it’s all opened a weird pit in your stomach that’s equal parts excitement and nervousness. 

Your beautiful dark green dress makes you feel like a queen. It’s completely backless and sexy, meaning you know all the angles you’re going to have to pose in. 

Speaking of, as soon as you step on the red carpet, you hear your name being called out from all directions. They all want a glimpse, a photo. They all want eye contact. You slip into the routine that’s come from years worth of practice. Soon, the flashes move on to the next person and you’re being ushered inside by your sister (who’s your date for the night). You used to cling to her during the earlier days of fame but now you’ve rather grown into this life. Still, she’s a constant presence.

‘The 1975 are here tonight,’ she waggles her eyebrows once you’re inside, ‘excited?’

You grin at her. She knows you’ve listened to their new album on repeat for weeks after it came out. You’re even nominated in the same categories that they are. She also knows about your teeny tiny crush on their frontman. 

‘He spoke about you, you know?’ she continues, ‘on that radio one show he did last year.’

‘Oh?’ you feign nonchalance, play it cool but she’s not so easily fooled. 

‘In fact,’ she subtly points up ahead, ‘that’s him isn’t it?’

And it is him. You scan him from head to toe as he’s engrossed in talking to some of the other guests. He looks absolutely gorgeous in the black tuxedo and that one curl that rests on his forehead is just enough to drive you crazy. 

‘It is,’ you breathe when you realise that she’s still waiting for a response. 

There’s a small moment of back and forth where she tries to get you to walk up to him.

‘He looks so engrossed in the conversation,’ you hedge.

‘No, he doesn’t, he looks impatient to get away.’

‘What if this turns out like that one Jerry Seinfeld and Kesha moment?’ you cringe.

‘I literally remember him saying that he’d cut off his left arm to be able to work with you,’ she deadpans. 

‘Well, no, I rather like his arms,’ you say without thinking. 

And that’s the exact moment Matthew fucking Healy chooses to look at you. 

His eyes widen for a second as he tries to subtly scan you from head to toe. His face splits into a stunning smile as he airily excuses himself from the conversation and starts walking toward you. 

‘Oh my god oh my god oh my god,’ you start mumbling to your sister but she lets out a quiet whoop of joy. 

‘That settles that, then. I think I see Harry Styles coming in,’ she whispers and just like that she disappears into thin air. The traitor!

‘I was wondering if you’d be here,’ he says as he comes to a stop in front of you. He doesn’t stand close enough to intrude in your personal space but the scent of his cologne still washes over you. 

‘Believe it or not, I was wondering the same,’ you confess.

He laughs at that, then properly gives you a once over. ‘You look stunning.’ He looks like he wants to add something more but then he holds himself back. 

‘So do you.’ You want to tell him he looks so much more than stunning but it’s hardly appropriate for a first conversation. ‘Congratulations on the nominations.’

‘I should say the same.’ Then he leans in closer, ‘between you and me, you’ve got a much better shot,’ he throws in a conspiratorial wink.

‘If Harry Styles doesn’t take it all first,’ you joke. He laughs at first and then starts disagreeing.

You’ve only experienced his larger-than-life on-stage personality so far so it’s a bit of a surprise when he shyly admits to being a fan of your music since the early days. He talks about your new album, like really talks about it. The fact that he’s given it a proper listen makes you feel all giddy inside. 

‘I’m rambling, aren’t I,’ he scrunches his eyes and this adorable blush makes its way onto his cheeks. 

‘No, I’d…I’d love to talk to you more about it. Your music. My music.’ 

His eyes light up at that and you suddenly feel like a middle schooler talking to her crush for the first time. Stop it!

‘I’d love that…’ he smiles. ‘Um, the afterparty, I don’t mind skipping it.’

‘Yes!’ you don’t even have to think about that one. Spending time getting to know him sounds like a much better plan than going to the afterparty. 

Besides, your sister can find her way home. She’s been to enough of these events by now. 

‘Dinner?’ you ask tentatively. 

‘Dinner it is,’ he agrees in a heartbeat.
