The sadness and agony that emerges everytime I start a new oni save and am forced to remember what it's like to have a dupe without a hat only to put them in a hat because I think they'd look cute only to remember hats make half of them look bald but I spent this long maxing out a skill for them so Im too stubborn to back down and remove the hat

"Im so sorry to bother you at home"

Starring: Nishinoya Yuu

Sypnosis: He has been trying to hit on you subtly for quite a few time, but he has grown a little more determinate now.

Request: Hello! Could you please write a Nishinoya x female reader where she’s seen by everyone as a serious, menacing person, when in reality she’s really just socially awkward and dense? Nishinoya tries hitting on her doing the usual tricks like flowers and bears and pick up lines but she’s just confused. Finally he just becomes more direct with her and honest and slowly she falls for him too? I’m sorry if it’s a bit too detailed and it’s okay if you don’t do this haha it’s been at the back of my head for a while

A/N: This one was so cute to write!, i tried to be really quick making this but the inspiration came to me like a thunder and here we are. Remember i use she/her in this fic.

Nishinoya Yuu. The thunder of the Karasuno team, always so energetic and kind, oftenly called delusional by his feelings towards Kiyoko, little did they know that it wasent a crush, he admired her and by that her personality and how she acted; But he liked you, he admired you and wordshipped the very floor you stepped on.

His tries were almost pathetic, sure he could tell Kiyoko anything btu it was different when it was you, he shacked and mumbled like a little kid inlove everytime he crossed any words with you. Everyone could tell but some way you didnt; Not even the flowers he gave you, little gifts he made for you with his own hands (which were a cute detail since he isnt pretty good with manualities) But from time to time his friends started to see that there was no response tho this little acts.

"She doesn't like you and she's acting like that to decline your feelings nicely" He heard one of them said, his heart ached but then Hinata spoke answering to the previous person, his words were filled with determination and his obvious spark that always bringed hope to everyone. "And what if she isnt?, she could see it was a friendly gesture. Nishinoya haven't talked about his feelings openly to her"

Hinata had a point, Sugawara and Daichi agreed, yes Nishinoya and his friends could think those hints were obvious enough to tell that he was completely head over heels inlove with you. But they know him as a friend and since pretty long time comparing to you; They weren't you and that meant they didnt feel or thinked like you.

He planned his confession, would you like something big? the whole school knowing?, No, it will make you agree by social pressure, Did you liked him enough to say 'Yes' without much people knowing? Oh God.

It was 6PM on a friday. He can remember it vividly, his steps were hard on the floor and his fingers were digging into his shirt and on the little box he held, his palms sweated and his face was red; He knocked at your door. After a few minutes you opened the door.

"Hey, im so sorry to bother you at home" he started as he saw you, his face blushed and his cologne was subtle as always. "I know that this might be hard but... I dont know what to say" he started panicking.

"I like you a lot" He finally stated after a sigh, his gaze fixated on the floor, the blush on his cheeks made him look heated, his breathing was heavy and his mind was longing and pleading for an answer.

"Are you being serious?" You spoke, a hidden tint of amusement in your voice, his feeling were glowing as he answered "Of course i am, why wouldnt i? i like you so much" He said as he took another step, reflecting his mind and then doing the opposite and stepping back, he didnt wanted to make the situation awkard, he just wanted to finally be totally sincere with you.

little did he know you liked him aswell, but oh lord he is the happiest man alive.

"Hey, i bringed this for you too" He said as he smiled at you, more confident and smug after your answer, handing you a little figure you have been longing to have since quite a few time. He buyed it for you since the first day you mentioned it but he decided to wait untill the ocation was perfect, and sure it was.

Chew toy ~

Lee: Bangchan Ler: Minho

explenation: What squeaks? Chan. What also squeaks? Chew toys. And what plays with chew toys that squeaks? Cats. And whos a cat? MINHO.

warning! Teases, Chan is upset and emotional, plus some small nibbles and raspberries <3

------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chan sighed, using his last strength to finally be done with the song, checking the clock to only reveal the light of the words 'three AM' on it with a groan.

He regretted even going to italy with the other members at this point, wishing he just could have lied that he was sick. BUt now, here he was, stuck with a pile of work that only he could take on.

He hasnt told any of the other members about it tho, becayse he didnt want them to feel bad for leaving him with so much work.

He was alone in the studio, Han and Changbin had stormed out earlier that night because Chan was so stressed and tired, that he regrettably took it out on them.

Chan began feeling so overwhelmed, and slowly but surely, tears started to roll down his pretty face (he is so pretty tho, no joke-). His plump lips formed into some sort of pout, before letting broken sobs break thru them.

He lowered his head, feeling the weight of everything pressing him lower and lower into the deep darkness of sadness, he felt like he was somehow drowning without being able to breath.

But then, a sort of hope appeared from the door to the studio, in form of an angry looking Minho. He was probably there to curse out Chan for hurting Hans feelings, which he pretty much did.

"I cant even belive you right now!-" Minho began, ready to go on a rant. But instead, he stopped. His face turned into a mixture of confusion and concern at what was infront of him. Chan looked at him, his voice weak and his face filled with tears and puffyness

"Im so tired..."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------Minho was sitting on the couch, the older in his lap, sipping on some iced coffee from a straw. He hasnt spoken since what happened before, which was only just twenty minutes ago to give him a break.

The dancer didnt even know what to do either, just slowly rubbing Chans back while humming to him soothingly. When Chan seemed calm enough, he began speaking

"So, you wanna tell me whats happening now?" His voice was calm, but also stern, showing that he wasnt playing around with this and wanted answers.

"I..i guess i just got so overwhelmed by all the sudden work, i couldnt handle it..." Chan sighed, feeling like he sounded pathetic for not being able to do what he has done for years.

The younger hated it when Chan was like this, too stubborn to ask for help from the others, and then feeling bad for not being able to handle it. Bangchan may be the oldest, but he could be such a little child sometimes.

Minho decided to set a stop for this once and for all, knowing that another meltdown like this could put Chan in a really bad spot with his own mental health. His hands that were rubbing the elders back turned into claws, and he began to scratch up and down instead, making Chan twitch and lean from side to side. Fine, if he was gonna act childish, why not use childish methods to stop it.

Minho leaned his head to Chans neck, speaking into his ears while continuing his little soft scratches. "Whats wrong, big baby? cant handle some little scratchies?" Man, Minho could be a brat sometimes.

Chan began twisting from side to side, trying to soothe one side, only for it to get worse for the other side. He let sound some small giggle like sound, which sounded better than music to Minhos ears. "mhmhm..it tihickles, Minho..."

Minho chuckled, loving how cute his very annoying but weet leader could be. he began turning on the action, digging his nails into the space of Chans sides, tasering the fleshy skin to pull some loud and clear laughter from him. "Ahahahaha!- Plehahahahse, i cahaHAHnt tahake IhiIT theheEHEre!..."

"Too bad, love~ This is a punishment for being a child, for hiding how youve been feeling these past few days, and for taking more than oyu can handle~ Its a tripple win, if i may say so myself~"

Minho teased in a bit of a mom voice, his hands going higher to find the small crevises between his ribs, making sure that all five of his fingers got in there on every side. Chan began twisting and squirming, letting out his iconic squeaks which he alwasy got embarassed about. "Pleahahase stahahahp! Ihihim sohohory, plehahahse thihihis is embahahrasihihng!.."

Minho grinned, loving how Chan was such a muscle giant, but still had one of the most cute laughs in the group. "Aww, youre like my very own chew toy, 'squeak,squeak!' am i right?~" Chans face heated up, and his loud laughs turned into embarassed snickers, the squeaking following him either way like a shadow.

"And do you know what cats do to chew toys?~" Minho asked, knowing what was about to happen. The tickling kind of mushed Chans brains, making him let out a curious "whahahat?" while still giggling. Minho answered in a voice that quickly sent a shiver down Chans spine. "They chew."

Minho quickly bit down on Chans neck, while also shoving his hands onto the spot where the olders thighs met his hips, squeezing that spot with favor while also nibbling and blowing the loudest raspberries he could onto Chans neck.

Chan went insane, feeling like he might die in that moment. Tears ran down his face again, but not from sadness, but from happiness and smirth. He wierdly didnt feel like he was suffocating anymore, he felt free, and able to breath. "NOOOHAHAHAHAHAH! GAHAHAHAD PLEHEHEhAHAHASE NOHOHOHO! NOHOHOT THEHEHAHAHAHAHA!"

Minho winced by the volume of the older, feeling like a siren was placed right on his ear. But he smiled thru it, digging his fingers deeper into the death spot. "Whos a perfect squeaking leader and a lovely person!?"

"MEHEHEHEHEHE!" Chan screamed out, the tears straining hid neck and the collar of his shirt.

" And whats your name!?" "C-CHAHAHAHAN!" "NO your full name!" Minho teased, pushing in even deeper and blowing the loudest adn sloppiest raspberry he could muster up. He wasnt the best at it, but it seemed to work because Chan was howling like a dog.

"CRIAHAHAH- CHIHIHISTOHOHOFER BAHAHANGCHAHAHN!!"

"And who is Christofer Bangchan!?"

"A-A PEHEHEHERFEHEHEHECT SQUHUHUHUEHEHAHAHKY LEHEHAHAHDER AHAHAHND A- A LOHOHOVELY PEHEHEHRSOHOHOHON!!!! NOHOHOW STAHAHAHP!!!" Chan screamed out, his voice hoarse and his face red from having a hard time breathing.

Minhos hands slowed to a stop, and he used his cheeks to wipe away all the saliva from the raspberries off of his neck. Chan slumped against Minho while panting, his weight making both of them fall down onto the couch.

"Now, remember. You said those words because its true, and not just yo get out of tickling, right?" Minho asked in a fake stern voice, gently scratcching at his side. Chan giggled weakly, pushing his hand away before burrying his body against the youngers. "yehehes..i mehant them all..."

"Good, now, wanna go home and apologize to Han and Changbin?.." Minho asked Chan, pwtting his head affectionetly. Chan wanted to do that so badly, but he wrapped his arms around MInho, closing his eyes.

"Can we just stay like this for a while first?...Just an hour,please?..."

Minho Chuckled at thw cute antics off his leader. He wrapped his arms lazily around Chan, and they both slowly fell asleep like that, all alone and in silence, showing each other how much thye loved one another.

"Whatever you say, best leader..."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------And done! I am so happy about this one, becase this is excacly how i think Minho would tickle Chan if he ever had a day like this! <3

Hope you all like this, i kinda suck at writing teases, so if you wanna help me you can show me some good ones that i can use in most of my fics that im definetly gonna write! (not because im a lee that loves getting flustered, i swear! This is for help only, i pinkie promise!).

Bye everyone, eat well, sleep well, and get those tickles you want!

-Lina <3

[yooboobies]

tell the public (me, a fellow sopie) why you love sope so much? we all want the know!! and pls make as big as you want, today im in my yoonseok feelings

You ALL want to know?👀

The most honest answer to this question would be that I don’t know. I don’t know how it started, why it started- one day I just really loved Sope as a whole.

But to be fair i do have some thoughts on this. I started out as a Tae girl and along with him I started growing fonder of Yoongi as well until to the point when it was just Yoongi. I got myself deeper and deeper and deeper in the rabbit hole - got to know BTS more, got to know each member’s story and I found myself caring so much for this heart shaped boy named Hoseok.

I learned about his story - we all know it so I won’t go deeper into it because I will cry - and I just couldn’t help myself and unconsciously started caring for him so much more.

I found myself digging deeper for Sope content - found Hwagae Market and from that point on there was no going back. Their dynamic is something really special to me cause it reminds me of the one I have with my best friend. She always describes us two to strangers or new people as sun and moon, she always says while I am the moon and the night sky in her life that she needs, she is the sun and the daylight in mine that I need.

And Sope is that to me. I love the side of Yoongi Hobi brings out so much. Carefree, shy and happy. And I love that Yoongi can always make Hobi laugh and how endeared Hobi is whenever Yoongi does something so mundane like it’s the greatest thing in the world.

I love how Yoongi stayed with him for New Years, even tho they barely knew each other back then, because that’s just the kind of person he is and that’s how special their friendship is. He didn’t want the sunshine to leave Hobi so he stayed ans kept the lights warm in Hobah so they never died out and kept radiating in him. I believe that he is the warmest person today because Yoongi made sure to never let those lights go out.

I love whenever they talk about the things they did together in the earlier years they always do that with such fondness - I love that they used to do things together such as going out and watch underground rap performances and all… I love how it was so important to them.

I love how silly those two can be together up to a point where they made a whole performance together wearing shiny jackets and coming up with the funniest dance just because they can. I bet it didnt take much convincing from Hobi - Yoongi agreed easily. I love that they have this as something we will always remember of whenever we think about Sope.

I love Hwagae Market because it wasn’t JUST a name for their ‘show’ - if you know the lore its what connects Gwangju and Daegu together, that meeting point, the market 🥹 It’s so special and I miss it SO MUCH I WANT HWAGAE MARKET BACK 😔😔😔😔 I love how it was THEIR thing - how they just did whatever they came up with let that be try not laugh or playing the flute or sharing the same outfit or just talking…. It was utterly and completely a Sope thing that I will cherish forever.

I love how they bring out the best from each other, I love how in the end they are each other’s vitamins not just Hobi for Yoongi. Their dynamic is - how I like to describe it - a little bit of everything. Soft, because through soft actions they care for each other let that be going the mv shooting from making songs together and supporting each other to just making sure the other is doing okay and ate enough. Funny because lets be honest those two are HILARIOUS together. Uplifting - they make even the gloomy days happier and better for each other. Full of love and care.

Sope means everything good and happy to me. They are the ones you have to get to know well to understand who they are because they are so easily misunderstood and I relate to that a lot . You would say Hobi is always just loud and overly energetic and too much while he is really not. He is a very serious, very hardworking and very collected person, it just happens that he contains so many warm sunshine he doesn’t want to keep it all to himself so he decided to share it with us. You would say Yoongi is cold and emotionless but he is the kindest and gentlest and most caring person in this earth. And I will never stop proving this.

But most importantly

Even tho they had MANY hardships BOTH OF THEM stayed gentle.

JUST FISNISHE DWTACHING FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYS FILM AT CINEMA. BOY

IM SO GIDDY

SPOILERS OF COURSE!!!

IM so glad [atleast in my country] its classified as thriller it does wonders because its just clearly not horror. Its like Goofy 80s horror film and I love it. It still got some mystery [well to people who already know the game snot that much but theres still some sliver of it]. Idk i cant classify it as any genre

BUT FUCK IT I HAD FUN!!!! THATS WHAT I HOPED FOR!!!

The beggining and end were the best, middle atill was okay for me still fun :] I didnt expect Cute moments with the animatronics it was so goofy and I dig it <4

And!!! Im glad that vanessa wasnt just the love interest! I dont think it even was implied that either mike or vannessa fell in love with eachother actually. Hell for me, who knows most of the fnaf story, she was most of the mystery! Sure her plot was predictable but I think it DID make sense in the movie so its really enough for me. Tho she really has a lot going on and it would have been nice to see more of her past! Or to see that in the future?

Also its so funny to me how the plot with jane ended with her just getting fucking killed lmao

AND IM SO SO GLAD WILLIAM DYING IN SPRINGLOCKS HAPPENED. I WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE IT. SURE IT WASNT WOAH SO GORY BUT IT WAS THERE AND THE PERFORMANCE WAS GOOD IMO!

also hehe william really didnt give a fuck about anyone I dig that actually

Also all the references/easter eggs were fun!!

Also lmao when I realized that waiter guy was matpat. I whezeed.hes here

Love how our hate for baloon boy got acknowledged as a gag

AND WHEN THE CREDITS ROLLED. THEY PLAYED THE FIRST FNAF FAN SONG. BOY SO MANY OF US IN THE CINEMA CHEERED

To conclude: as a fnaf fan I had fun!!! Really I think my expectations have been met I didnt expect a stellar film and yeah its no that but I had fun!!

Objectively? Yeah of course its not a great thriller. Average I would say. The plot is still holding together but no tense atmosphere is really there. Characters were fun, not woah complex but fun and acting was neat! I quite enjoyed the soundtrack of this film :] a lot of 'emotional' moments didnt hit it for me but hey im still glad mike and Abby are happy

Honestly I just think there isnt exactly a good film genre for this film? Maybe im just not knowledgable enough? But it doesnt feel right to say its thriller. And its also not right to say its comedy for me

Its just. A fun movie. Nothing stellar but fun and I wasnt bored!

Okay no this si not gonna be exactly related to the movie but

IM FUCKING SERIOUS WHEN I SAY I FUCKING LOST FEEL IN MY FINGER NERVES AFTER CLAPPING AT THE SPRINGLOCKS SCENE WHEN WILLIAM AFTON SAID HIS FUCKING THING. EVERYONE WAS CLAPPING AND CHEERING AT THAT POINT TOO I THINK

Just in general love how we all in that cinema at some points had the same reactions dhdhds

Everytime afton showed up I was laughing in mischief

It was awesome to watch it on a premiere day :]

[narryffdreaming]

I have read all of your stories and I love that you have main characters and not y/n / reader insert because it gives the story that much more depth because the characters are complex and I'm sure people still identify with the main character on some level because they feel so human. I was wondering how you come up with the characters? Are they based (character and appearance) on someone you know or your self or completely made up or? I'm truly fascinated

💘💘💘 cant thank you enough for asking about the characters!!! istg!!! i love this SO MUCH that i intentionally took a little to answer just so i could do it properly 💘💘💘

so, first of all, i just wanna say that i dont insist on creating main characters because i think they're better or anything like that, but because i dont know how to do it any other way. it is what makes sense to me, and it is the reason why i am so passionate about writing. ive studied theater/performing arts most of my life, so for YEARS i played around with watching people on the streets and imagining what their lives could be. i learned how to find motives for someone to do this or that, how to create at least some minimum of background story and how to plan a story with beginning, middle, and end. and i always loved that SO MUCH and was SO fascinated by it, that when i decided to stop pursuing a career as an actress, i also decided to get a psychology degree just so i could learn even more about how people think/act/react/feel + how that's all connected, etc.

and in the end, thats how i come up with characters. because its basically part of me now lol i do it naturally and i cant help it, and even if im doing one scene or writing just 300 words, I'll still need SOMETHING to base myself on (even if it's just the tiniest bit of information). maybe i won't share the main characters' names with anyone or mention anything about their lives, but i can promise you they more than definitely have a full name and past somewhere in my mind.

with that in mind, the way i come up with specific characters for my stories is completely different. i created maisy and harry from the prompt "we're not just friends and you fucking know it" and that was supposed to be really short. so i knew the names, and knew how their friendship started, and some details here and there, but didnt dig TOO MUCH into their past stories. cant even remember why i chose maisy as her name tbh lol however lia and harry was different, i first created harrys personality from this one picture of him that i was looking at one day, and then i created lia. and then, for a toast to the future, someone requested a one-shot based on harry in Italy and somehow i came up with aurora and everything else.

none of my characters are based on myself, tho. like, for me, creating characters and stories is supposed to be a distraction, kinda like "stepping out of who i am", yknow? so i cant write if im picturing myself or writing about my own flaws and traumas and things like that lol at the same timmmmeeee, we ALWAYS end up putting a little bit of ourselves into our writing (whoever says they aren't they are lying to themselves lol). i had a best friend who never admitted we were way more than friends, which was why i chose that prompt back in 2020. our story has NOTHING to do with maisy and harry for many many many reasons, but i didnt choose that prompt randomly. then lia... well, that was very cathartic to me and probably the most personal lol years ago i was dating a guy who told me "i should be more spontaneous" and i never realized how much it had bothered me and stuck with me until i based myself on that to create lia. i mean, im not like her in many many ways, but i wanted to create a character who struggled to speak up (i struggle to put my thoughts in order bc of my adhd, she struggles bc of her anxiety) and stand up for that character. she's not perfect and i know some people dont have too much patience for the way she behaves/thinks, but in the end i guess thats basically my point with the story? like people dont have too much patience, but thats on them. we shouldnt be trying so hard to change in order to please them or be more socially acceptable/welcomed.

ANYWAY... as you can see i could write HOURS AND HOURSSSSSSS about this. i didnt even get into Aurora bc thats a whole other long story that probably deserved its own answer lol but yeah, in the end, Lia's entire life was created so it makes sense that she is the way she is rn. same goes for harry!!! also didn't get into appearance and so many other things 😩 but i have to stop writing at some point which is RIGHT NOW!!!!!

🫂🫂🫂💘💘💘

[mejomonster]

I still havent beaten Lost Judgement but like. What a game. If you like the yakuza games? Great time. Still has the mix of serious high angst crime thriller plot with very silly ridiculous slice of life side stories that still can also manage to hit your heart. I'm still thinking about the Ace Attorney spoof side story about missing dessert, and the fotune teller, and the haunted apartment. And the main story where I had to get a nice dessert for the coworker to help us, and god just. All of the guy whos ir friend in the sexy silk shirt as Usual these kinds of games giving gratuitious eye candy so theres always that. The anonymous mask wearing punk kid (who i actually really like).

The fact ur a detective but Not a yakuza this time i find fun, and NOT a cop so u can kind of live out the fun of playing out the equivalent of a crime drama u would watch without having ur lead be a cop. Instead hes a lawyer who won a defense case! But ex lawyer, cause his defendant killed again! But also it may have been a setup! Either way taku has lost his judgement (get it) over whats truly the truth or not! As is typical for rgg games Lost Judgements angst emotional heavy half of the plot IS fucking heavy! Which keeps my attention. While all the other stuff drags me off. I lose 20 hours being a small time case detective, i lose another 5 trying to do a romance side plot (and tbh i find these ones a mixed bag? The romances are good in that the girls have genuine character side stories i find fun and interesting and with meaning, much like the cabaret girl side stories in kiwami 2, but theyre awkward in that im making taku a cheater cause i dont wanna miss out on a story and ;-; im sorry taku im sorry girls! Whereas yakuza kiwami 2 kiryu was... very much just their friend... im mixing up yakuza games but theres one where u befriend tje cabaret girls and ones in a manga competition and thats the one). Like... i very much liked rgg7s friendship bonds, but hated the romances cause the romances felt like some kind of add on trophy thing where the party friendship bonds werw genuine side stories. And like why not make romance a good side story? Im only HERE doing a romance for rhe side story! ToT so like. Lost Judgements is a mixed bag. Better than rgg7s but i kinda prefer just friend bond side stories skip the dating altogether, tho i realize thats more kiryus style than other protagonists.

Possibly the most Intense element to me of Lost Judgement is. U sure do feel immersed. In being a confused fucking detective. I stopped playing the game for 6 months, came back to it right at the pharmaceutical company investigation. Fucking hell. I had to interrogate and answer like court related questions i didnt even remember the fucking case. I was afraid to game over. Or to dig taku in a very big hole of failure id be penalized trying to climb out of. I felt like OH NO i shluldve studied my case files for clues! In that terrible instant of remembering nothing i was whooshed back to memories of playing law and order on a windows 98 trying to solve the mysteries, and every mystery show i ever watched trying to pay attention to the clues, lamenting id forgotten and was about to ruin takus life. (For the record i guessed like a very amazingly lucky champ, and answered right enough to get thru it). But wow did i feel in the middle of a detective story.

[videostak]

o ya also last saturday saw saucerful of secrets CD which ive been looking for foreeeever ever since i accidentally sold mines in a stupid depression back in like 2021 but i didnt get it when i saw it cause the guy was also selling records to and it was like a dumb souped up booth where everythings overpriced and the records were all p expensive so i was like :/ and the CD was 9$ which was a bit pricey compareed to other booths but honestly not awful like the same price id pay getting it at bookoff or ordering it but since everything else there was genuinely overpriced i didnt wanna get it lol. o ya it was also scratched but i dont think it wouldve affected it playing but im not sure i think they were p deep cuts but with albums of that length that are like 30-40ish minutes i can never guess on whether or not it would actually make it skip. buuut ya hopefully i run into one again. am probably going tomorrow to a different one tho the one that tends to not have great great stuff but can have some good stuff if i dig enough. but ill see. it seems to tend to change but with the one i went to on saturday that one seemed really exciting and had tons fo great stuff

[anosci]

(166-180 albums etc that I’ve listened to this year, copied from twitter) (now with art. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13])

names and thoughts below cut

166/ MigloJE - Elements 2 (2023) hmm..it's not doing much for me? I think i wouldve been bonkers for this in 2006. does that make it retro? it does have a VERY early 00s bedroom synth vibe. highlights: "Eyes full of sky part 2". "Star Dust" hits right.

---

167/ (all of the mono/tonik/211 releases from 1996) mostly a pile of singles. a mish mash of styles, that hit me to varying degrees. some standouts: 23/Wired. BIG BEAT. 40/phunky habitation. the 2step matches that synthwork beautifully. 59/painting plastics. crackly :D

---

168/ (all of the modules from Tokyo Dawn Records, 1997) lots of dnb fodder. not even bad, im just picky. the standouts are the chillouts: rubrngr, almond ep… well, those are the standouts that i didnt already have from party releases :P

---

169/ Nimu - Picture In Picture (2023) flowing waters, gently carrying you away. surprising amount of tobacco smoke difuses the streetlamps. for some reason this didnt do much for me overall. highlights…… hmm. mostly just "Ultramarine".

---

170/ Brioskj - Afterlife (2023) a brighter side of chill. "I'm Jealous" has a really cool spacey progression that resonates with me fsr. the shifting harmonies actually permeate the whole EP, which i rather enjoy, but t3 in particular hit me 2nite. "Sultriness 2022" rly good too.

---

171/ Aleksi Perälä - The Colundi Sequence Level 1 (2014) i remember skimming a few tracks each of these 100000 albums and then adding them to my list if anything caught my ear. im not sure why this made my list. prolly GBBVT1337052. feels like great meditation music overall.

(runnerup GBBVT1337102!)

---

172/ (all of the stuff from monotonik 1997) it's just distance kicking all of the ass. well the other stuff is ok but i really like the chill-ish idm-ish stuff distance was dropping here. "pt30 tribute" ahead of its time tbh. s/o to Whiskas for his weird tune too.

---

173/ Mr. Bill - IRL (2014) fun electric sound with a touch of groove. it's a fun dichotomy between "submersed in the modern sound of 2014" and "not cleanly fitting in any single trend box". the combo is a really fun listen 9 years later.

---

174/ (all of the stuff from mono (not tonik) 1997) dnb? eh. 'sok. triphop and breaks? therein lies the good stuff. lets see, highlights: "blur (your) reality" cool orbital vibe! "twisted shadows" masiv "Call Me Persephone" d e e p SIZEABL8.XM <- surprisingly hard!

--- June ---

175/ Mr. Scruff - Friendly Bacteria (2014) nice clean beats. not a fan of the vocals when they appear, which is sometimes. title track is nice. gotta love some bendy octave defying bass. fav track "We Are Coming" tho. stac.

---

176/ TVBOO - HONKERS (2023) the high pitch weirdness in the opening track is enough to win my heart over, holy shit it's a lil silly but in an earnest way that only lends to the heart within the music. (check track 3 you'll know what i mean.) fun!

---

(extra long thoughts)

177/ (every Tokyo Dawn Records mod release, 1998) hmm. dnb. lots of good stuff tbh, but im being picky. some actual hilites: "selbstmord?" is such a cool spacey mood. feels like it could fit in metroid prime. love it. "peachy" is just oldschool s3xmit for me to enjoy the dnb "On me" still dnb but man i cant deny this is FRESH for 98. absolutely bonkers you could get a 1MB module of this at the time. "wolkenflug" hmm. a lil too trance for my taste but its getting there "in vestigator" cool! b-side is a bit much (loopy) but i dig the texture "during 8" finally! some big slow breaks! sadly its just ok. "Collapsoid" huh kinda cool lil textures in this groove "AbstractTechnoVibes" anything "aphexy" gets my attention huh. cool textures and cool synthwork. warbles! "into the unknown" holding an intense fight against my distaste for dnb (and esp darkstep) by being good "lesbians on wax 2.0" i love how this is called "ae-esque." it sure is… for 1998, on the 10th of july, three days before LP5. (ok actually LP5 isn't quite as much of a leap as confield was but still.) yes good i like it "AlbertoBalsalm (rmx)" is fascinating. its hard to best the original and this doesn't quite manage but it's neat to hear someone take it on in a tracker. it's at its best when it deviates from (instead of trying to augment) the original. 5!? wild. "little 8bit box ep" beats :)

---

178/ (all monotonik releases, 1998) mixed bag etc ofc "0% Sianisms (Dark Blue Mix)" wacky wonky good stuff "Chinwokh EP" cool and crunchy "Darn Martians EP" weird beats that sit well with me "Moss EP" really cool soundscapes! perfect turn of the century sound

---

179/ (all mono211 releases, 1998) mixed bag etc ofc. massiv hiphop standouts. &: "0% Sianisms" delightful, industrial, and a third thing "Two Girls EP" absolutely blown away at the outside perspective shown here. actually insane. fascinating. "More Tea EP" rly good! love those breaks!! "Parannoying" takes dnb timbres and combines them into a weird lazy afternoon tracker thing. the whole ep actually. standout. "Reversions" chilled out hiphop vibes, no twists. hits good.

---

180/ (all Tokyo Dawn Records, 1999) looking for non-dnb on the dnb label once again. i find myself mostly enjoying falcon's slow beats: "la petit prince" and "luv u" esp. "light" is peppy enough to overcome my anti-dnb bias. "repertoire#2" is a lovely variety pack.

Can you give us your opinions on every ghostface from movies 1-4

Sure beebs.

Billy and Stu: Im sure my opinion on these two is clear by now lmao. They're my favorites by a long shot. Unhinged and original. They started it all. My comfort characters and two of my biggest fictional crushes.

Mickey Altieri: Don't like him. At all. I think his motive was lame as fuck. And also his character was kinda boring? He just felt like an evil foil to Randy. He's hot tho.

Mrs. Loomis: Ah, yes. Billy's mom. Well she's obviously unhinged, and her depiction in Scream 2 is the basis of why I believe she had some sort of psychosis and was a particularly overbearing, yet neglectful mother. I mean, hate her for abandoning Billy, but her motive was good. Nice, simple revenge. Not all motives have to be quirky or complicated. I also love how Sidney recognized her immediately, which means she was likely dating Billy before his mom left. It adds another layer of fucked up intrigue to him, since it points to his romantic feelings for Sidney turning bitter to the point of murder. It also implies that a good amount of Billy's mental issues were hereditary, considering that Mrs. Loomis is clearly as fucked in the head and has many of the same issues with reasoning and logic that Billy had. She also went to extremes in the same way he did. I mean she lost weight and got plastic surgery for no reason other than to hide her identity enough so that no one who didnt know her personally could recognize her (like Sidney). Whether its medically accurate or not, its clear from her actions, words, and Sidney's words that it was supposed to be a "See where he gets it from?" moment . All in all, I don't care much about her character itself, but rather what it revealed in relation to Billy.

Roman Bridger: He's okay. He's from my least favorite Scream, but as a character he's fine and I think he's cute. Honestly, I like to rewrite in my head that Billy just accidentally caught his father with Maureen, but canon is canon, so I'll begrudgingly accept it. I will say though, the idea of Sidney having a half brother that was scorned by Maureen was kinda neat. I didn't hate that. And I like the added lore that Maureen had some major flaws, like turning away her kid to distance herself from her past. Really wish Kincaid had been the killer with him (and I kinda ship them lol.)

Jill Roberts: So it's been awhile since I watched Scre4m, but Jill is an absolute GOAT. Idc that people didn't like Scre4m, I thought she was a great killer. Loved how unhinged and selfish her motive was. Loved how competent she was. She's right under Billy and Stu as my favorite Ghostface. I genuinely didn't suspect her the entire time I watched the movie, so the reveal was very satisfying to me. Also she's super hot and Ive honestly been considering writing for her

Charlie Walker: Okay, so this might be a genuine hot take, but I don't hate Charlie? Lol? He was pathetic in an endearing kind of way? And I loved his dynamic with Jill. Id have to rewatch Scre4m again to really dig into his character tho.

Do you think Alola’s stories took a lot of story elements from Alain’s story. Like a strong good unbeatable charizard trainer scouted fairly young by an evil man to do wrong stuff without them knowing the truth. Alain-Lysander Leon-Rose. Then a professor who is more a dad than an actual dad Alain-Sycamore Ash-Kukui. Than a brother who goes to extreme limits to protect his sister. Alain-Mairin Gladion-Lillie. Looks like an antihero but was always a good guy taking on burden of world Alain Gladion

Sooo I am presuming you meant both Alola and Galar, because I see Leon and Rose. For Alola, I admit, I dont know much! :D;;;;; I am a tsme nerd but never watched SuMo in full even though I tried many MANY times to get hooked onto it >< (im not even sure what my issue with it is exactly…all the ideas from it are rly cute when i see them on tumblr but when I watch, it just doesn’t do it for me)

I know Gladio and Lillie’ story got developed a LOT in the anime (I played the games and didn’t find it too memorable) so idk how similar it feels while watching the anime, but on principle, I cant adjudicate on whether one piece of material served as inspiration for the other. I could see a few similarities between Gladio’s first appearances and Alan, but even with regard to Alan and Manon’s relationship, I tend to see it as different from Gladio and Lillie: Marisson to me is this fully platonic and extremely close but not entirely family-like kind of bond, whereas Gladio and Lillie really do feel like siblings, with Lillie as being much younger.

As for Satoshi, I do know Kukui seems like a dad to him and find it rly sweet but it seems like Burnet also became a 2nd mum of sorts? So it feels to me like a different scenario: I think SuMo tried to give Satoshi a second family in Alola (with a traditional structure) to go with the whole theme of Alola leading to found families, whereas Alan’s bond with Platane is again special. He worked for Platane, he never calls him family, but the care they feel for each other is quite family-like. But Alan’s care for Platane goes hand-in-hand with his desperation to protect him, as if Alan was the one with a duty to protect, which is an unusual feeling for a son to feel vis-à-vis his dad, so it’s not that simple.

Finally, on Dande and Rose… hmmmmm Unfortunately they didnt elaborate enough on Rose or his relationship and history with Dande in the anime, so it is difficult to dig very deep, but yes, i can see the parallel. Alan does not feel as unbeatable as Dande tho. He got smashed by Zumi! And was on the way to getting smashed by Daigo :D but the peculiar relationship with a rich person who turns to have bad plans yes (again, cant say if one served as inspiration for the other tho :D) !

oohkay let's go tua with those ship asks: fiveya, horrance and alluther.

thanks el i love you

Send me a ship and I'll answer three questions based on if I ship it or not.

fiveya obvs i ship this since this is 90% of my tua drawings lol

1. ill wait ill wait (to be the one) by georgiestauffenberg made me ship it cause holy fuck dude. I dont know if i ship them romantically when i saw them onscreen cause first of all, age difference is kinda weird lmao. Second, they dont rlly interact much outside literally the first couple of eps. But he was so soft for her, and i felt like they had so much unexplored history.

so i looked at fanfics cause i was wondering if ppl still ship it, then i liked the description of this one so i gave it a go.

Basically the premise is that vanya dates a much older man who seems to know a lot about her. And it was amazingly in character and just provided their characters some depth that u wouldnt find outside of a romantic relationship between them. (The implication of five pining while she doesnt know who he is, their missed chances when he time travelled, fives missed chances of living and having a 'normal' life bec of his own hubris, vanyas insecurity and being able to open up bec shes with someone whos known her since childhood). Its so sweet and thats how i was like, oh yep i can do so much more with these two, and what has kept me interested in drawing them etc.

2. My favourite things are the shippers cause i made some friends in the fandom who are super cool and supportive! I dont get super involved in fandoms and usually just watch from afar so finding people to talk to and muck around with in this tiny fandom is super cool 😭

Though thats not to say I havent come across some bad apples in this fandom and things that I dont like. I think thats the importance of carving out a place for yourself and ur friends in fandom tho.

Another thing I like about the ship itself, i just like the grumpy person whos soft for one person trope. Its so cute. I like all the little clues in canon on how their relationship as kids is quite warm, which is interesting cause five is basically the star student and he can be quite cold vs vanya who is the black sheep of the family.

I also like how five likes her powers even when she caused the apocalypse he spent the majority of his life in lol. Like its a popular hc that five is just a wife guy and i love that.

I see vanya as the type who has a lot of love to give, and she sometimes has unrealistic expectations of what her partner can give. Betrayal and lies really angers her, but also when her partner cannot meet her expectations of love she gets very upset bec its also an indication of how shes not good enough, or not loveable enough to be able to have this in the relationship (her insecurity means every failing always comes back to her, even if its out of her control).

I feel like five would be a level-headed person enough in the relationship to not be afraid to say 'vanya ur being stupid' (ie. the s2 confrontation lmao). Also, five's personality means she will never have to doubt his actions bec she knows hes the type who will not give u the moment of the day if hes not interested.

Not to mention they also have the whole apocalypse vs. saviour, hero/villain thing. Theres just a lot to explore!

3. I probably have several. But mostly I dont mind five being a dick to vanya bec first, even if the appeal is hes soft to her hes already kind of a dick in canon lmao. Also, vanya isnt a child. Shes grown and she can handle petty af things like five telling her shes not good at cooking lol. I also dont mind it cause I feel like people are getting too afraid to write... conflict for fear or portraying an abusive relationship or smth. Like, chill. Conflict is fine, resolving it is how u get a story. However in saying that, nobody should be obligated to write any way unless you want to! Fanfic is for comfort so if what your doing is making u happy then its good enough!

horrance which i also ship but i love the platonic and romantic relationship equally:

1. I came in tua in general not shipping anything so Im honestly not sure. I do remember someone doing a meta before s2 came out that was basically how ben acted weird when klaus summoned dave in s1 that made me go 👀 Otherwise, tua s2 rlly made me like them cause tua FED horrance shippers. Like..... the fact that klaus didnt want ben to leave him, and ben knows thats why he stayed 😢 or the fact that klaus was all over him for some reason???? Somebody also mentioned gay ben once and I resonate with that deeply. Like i get that jill exists but i resonate with gay ben deeply.

2. I love their bickering, theyre so cute together. I just like ben being angry bec hes self aware that hes got both shit and amazing taste. Shit bec he cant believes he likes Klaus (and also amazing also bec Klaus). I think the idea of them being kind of underdogs, theyre not rlly leader types and dont want to be, helps them bond together even in platonic horrance. They're both down to earth, and even tho they can annoy each other, they also know if they want a space to feel comfortable its with each other. Theyre not pressured by rivalry over leadership, or any sort of competition.

I love the idea that even tho ben is like klaus's ''conscience'', hes also down for chaos and bitchy. I feel like klaus rlly enabled that side of him, its not exactly a good thing but its p funny lol

3. I know some people think their dynamic is unhealthy but i dont care lol

alluther. So id say i dont ship this, mostly due to the fact that im not invested? Just like all tua ships so far I rlly came out not wanting anything but platonic relationships cause I feel tua doesnt do romance very well. With alluther, theyre so cute but im not super invested in either of their chars so they havent stuck for me. I appreciate seeing them and talking about them tho, and I'm def open to exploring them further.

1. I think tua canon romances are just so lackluster 😔 Idk who writes the romances but I was just like 'nice' but afterwards I dont really think about them. I love their dance scene and the message behind it! Otherwise, theyre sweet like most of the tua romances but im not super invested, same with all the non canon ships.

2. I really feel like tua needs to decide on what their relationship is. Like, just say its incest or not and stick with it 👀 Or if you wanna support it or not, just make up ur mind. I think I would've liked it better if I found the characters more interesting. Allison especially I feel like suffers from the fact that tua just doesn't want to make her ''mean''. They want to make her supportive and are less interested in making her flawed (ie. she should've had a conflict with Vanya in s2, but the writers didnt want to write the girls fighting which is stupid imo and not what that conflict is about).

In regards to Alluther, the scene where Allison gets annoyed at Luther for sleeping with someone else felt out of line. Like, how are you marrying other people and moving on but Luther isn't allowed to? But honestly, I don't mind if they actually just acknowledge it and make it a deliberate part of Allison's trait that Allison can expect a certain loyalty automatically from other people (which can tie in to her childhood being a star, and the rumour).

Luther is a big simp for Allison, which is sweet, but at the same time it would be nice to have him explore himself for a bit, and who he is outside of the academy. Then maybe they can rekindle their relationship again as new people and see where they go from there.

3. I don't hate them, but they're ok. I'm not super invested in them, just like all the tua canon romance. But I wouldn't mind making content for them if I were a bit more invested in their characters. I love their dance scene in s1 and I feel like its super a underrated portrayal of what their relationship is meant to be. I know no one talks about it but it's just such a great scene, and I'm pretty sure the choreographer was into interpretive dance? The scene had a lot of meaning that I don't see people dig around with.

Essentially I'm pretty sure the fairy lights are obviously a throwback to their childhood together, spending time outside of Reggie. So the dance scene kind of symbolized that pocket of space they made for each other in their life (even if theyre far away, or with other people, they will always have that space for each other).

The way they danced was more like playfighting than dancing, which means their relationship isn't sensual. It's more ''pure'', and romantic. Its basically two kids rekindling their love as adults. I also think this is a response to the incest, cause in s1 tua klaus literally said that 'thank god Regg is not their real father' right before Allison and Luther meet lmao. So its kinda like saying Allison x Luther isnt supposed to be 'ohh step sibling hot' but two people who experienced the same trauma as kids and finding comfort with each other (and rekindling that love after many years).
