"And she [Sophie] couldn't help noticing how good he [Keefe] smelled—like wind and salt air and something a little citrusy."

hey guys remember when on page 646 of stellarlune shannon confirmed that keefe is a bit fruity (/hj)

[sophsun1]

we've never talked or anything but i just wanted to come by and say that i really hope that you can get past the whole heartbreak of all of this. i hope all of us can enjoy our ship even if it's not canon anymore and that i really also hope that you will have a better day today than what this last night/day has been 🤎

hey!

omg, this is so sweet of you to send me tysm 💛

i wish the same to you and everyone else who is going through it right now, we are all holding hands and supporting each other <3

i know i was relatively new to the show and fandom of it all and wasn't a vocal part of it besides my gifs but i must say that hand on heart this section of the fandom has been the sweetest, kindest and most supportive of each other and the talent between all of you gifmakers/meta writers/fic writers has been exceptional.

amongst all the drama and vitriol and constant abuse, you have carried the true spirit of fandom within you guys, and i hope as time settles and maybe wounds heal we can get back to the good times again or see where we go from here.

There is so much going on here

OCTOBER 25, 2024, 7.30AM THE WEAVER INN.

micah wakes up to his phone ringing in his hand. he'd only fallen asleep three hours prior while facetiming his best friend ravi. when micah answers the call, all micah sees filling the screen is a white birthday cake with the words 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZEEMO' in pink icing, the letters resembling more like random squiggly lines than actual words. ravi hadn't slept yet as he's still a little jet-lagged from his recent trip from thailand (yes, only a few weeks after his trip to blue harbor!), and instead spent the three hours that micah was asleep baking a cake with his girlfriend, rita. from behind a shaky camera, ravi and rita's voices can be heard saying, "make a wish, z!" to which micah only responds in a very tony leung with the tape recorder in happy together way. after having a good sob session, he gets ready for work (he's been working at the assembly depot for a week now!), gives heart reacts to the few birthday messages he receives, listens to some voicemails, and steps out of room 109 at the weaver inn to face the day for the thirtieth year in a row. a new record.

Hi!!! Can I hear abt that Mei fic you’re working on? (Unless it’s a surprise :)

For sure!!

So it's one of those swap aus but the swaping really isn't cut and dry (except for one or two exceptions) so like Ao Lie swaps with Wukong in the sense that he's now the immortal mentor character

but anyways here's all the main (established) swaps:

Pigsy/Zhu Bajie ←→ DBK  Tang/Tripy - PIF / Macaque PIF - Tang/Tripy / Pigsy/Zhu Bajie Macaque - Tang/Tripy / Wukong  Wukong - Macaque  Mei - MK MK - Red Son  Red Son - Mei / MK  Ao Lie - Wukong  Sandy ←→ Nezha 

So yeah the swaps are kind of messy but at the end of the day it works story wise. Also some things aren't quite like the show/jttw, like Wukong "takes" Macaque's place and dies but he stays dead and other stuff like that.

And when i write the fic i'm planning on making a go along series that will follow Wukong and his journey in the past to help explain how things ended up like during modern day with Mei

but enough about the swap stuff we want Mei. SO Mei has water based powers (no fire) and the staff (monkey king's staff only it's not monkey king's staff anymore it Ao Lie because Ao Guang gave Ao Lie the staff so he use it to protect himself on Ao lie's Journey to the west). The staff is semi-sentient (inspired by stick from Netflix's monkey king movie) and chose Mei as a master leaving it position guarding two very dangerous people. As for the water powers she inherited them from her dragon family (grandpa is dragon king of the west sea and all) though surprisingly her water powers are really strong which makes up for her lack of ability to turn into a dragon (in the eyes (some members) of her family.) Her water powers allow her to control bodies of water/Hydrokinesis (tho she struggles more with creating water/rain), breath underwater and handle deep sea pressures, have perfect bearing while at sea, and understand/control some sea creatures to a limited extent. Being in contact with water will also empower her to some extent. Despite all this it takes her a long time to unlock her hidden potential.

Moving on: Mei is best friends with Red Son and works for his parents at "Bull's Barbecue" where she's delivery girl (bc hey she swapped with mk). Her (kind of depressed) dad is Macaque who tells her a lot of stories about the heroes of old, but wait I hear you asking me "what happened to her parents?" well that maybe related to her power set...

but yeah there you go, a quick au Mei over view.

🐝 “What did I say (that wasn’t what I meant)” ! (Idk if I was supposed to send a character/ship with it but just do whoever’s rotting ur brain atm <3)

“I’m fine on my own,” Dazai spits out. Not because he means it, but because he’s been alone for two years now, and he knows how to survive without help. Not because he doesn’t want Kunikida here, but because it’s easier if he never cares about anyone ever again. (In his dreams, he still sees Oda’s blood on his hands. He still sees the flames of Chuuya’s car. He still sees Ango’s glasses, shattered on the pavement after Dazai punched him in the face and Ango simply let it happen.) Kunikida purses his lips. He looks Dazai over once more, then tells him, “You’re not fine. But I don’t know how to help you.” “I don’t need help,” Dazai lies. He ignores the screaming pain in his chest, nestled somewhere near where his heart should reside. The tiny, insignificant, part of him that craves human contact so desperately it burns. His fingers itch to draw a gun. He isn’t sure if he wants the bullet in Kunikida’s brain or his own.“Just— Leave me alone.” “Very well,” Kunikida relents. “But if you’re not in the office tomorrow, I will come looking for you.” Dazai hates him. He hates that Kunikida walks away. He hates that Kunikida is always honest. He hates that Kunikida is good in a way Dazai can only ever pretend to be. He hates that, despite his best efforts, he cannot truly hate Kunikida. Far more than he hates Kunikida, he cares about him. And he really, really, shouldn’t.

or: after Oda’s death, Dazai swore he wouldn’t let himself love anyone again. but as he grows closer to Kunikida, he finds some promises are harder to keep than others.

🐝 remedy and wrong entwine (+ any fandom/ship/characters you want <3)

John is lonely. He has Alecto, sure, but he’s had her quite a while, and he can’t live on a singular peer. (He thinks Alecto is a peer. She has to be. She’s the closest thing to it, anyway.) He’s considered this course of action before, but he always vetoed the thought before it could end up anywhere potent. To resurrect on such a tiny scale, to pick a handful of souls out of eight billion crying dead- it might hurt Alecto, and more importantly it might hurt their souls, not to mention it would be impossible. But all those grievances are minuscule when compared to John’s vast loneliness. They poke out like little pins in a vast empty unfinished quilt. He wants to start big. His nana is a no-go, she’d be furious. Anyone he knew in life is out of bounds, outside maybe Gary or the nun. They liked where he was headed, but even they might not appreciate the omnicide. The thought comes to John unbidden: What if they didn’t remember?

Or; John prepares to resurrect his oldest friends.

I've shared with you before that your GIFs are essentially what make up my Tumblr. Anyone can look at my Tumblr and know that is the truth. Obviously there are others - currently and from the past - but it's mostly you.

You're probably fine with me going down everything you post and liking and reblogging like a fan. And it's because I am - of you.

I appreciate that you shared people like me are having a moment, but there's a part of me that is crossing my fingers that what you're doing (you say selfish reasons, which is fair), will make a few more people watch QAF and make Brian Kinney their character to pay attention to and why "jerks" are the best characters. And you know Justin Taylor is my personal favorite. This is not a competition. And Justin can be a jerk too. The idea that new people might watch is wonderful.

Don't find me weird when I randomly stalk your tumblr through this journey for you. I want to appreciate your gifs and your tags. All at once would be doing myself a disservice.

You're kind of a hero, friend.

Hey friend!

You're always so sweet to me and of course i know you spam like and then add it to your queue (especially now that i'm posting like a madwoman lol) to space it out. It's totally cool with me however people curate their blogs.

Yes, I first and foremost gif for ME, whatever the content is. People have said that they have started watching qaf because of my gifs so i guess I'm doing my job.

"Jerks are the best characters" you're right and you should say it! Especially in these times where people demand their blorbo's are exclusively wholesome and good and there's zero room for nuance and media literacy is at an all time low.

I love Brian Kinney because he is a messy bitch and can be mean, selfish and toxic not in spite of it. That's human nature, that's relatable. Also some of my favourite moments are when he is called out and made to look at himself and change for the better in his own time. I don't want him to be babied and say he can do no wrong. The same goes for Justin. That's character growth, that's the journey.

I love you guys in the tiny qaf space and am friends with most of you so it makes me happy to be able to do this for you all.

Eurydice for the character thing? I’m in a Her mood today :)

YEAA her my beloved <3 ofc [ask game]

First impression

I don’t remember honestly? I mean, I knew she died at the end, but other than that idr my very first thoughts on her

Impression now

She’s permanently changed the way my brain is wired /pos

I love her so much!!! I love them all but she’s my favorite character honestly, and her songs in both the bway, nytw and concept album are so so good,, there is not a single bad Eurydice actress/singer man there really isn’t. But yeah love me a girlboss who is part of an uplifting tragedy what can I say

Favorite moment

You can’t do this to me I can’t choose 💔 mm I guess the first to come to mind right now is when she realizes what she’s gotten into by giving herself up to Hadestown in way down hadestown reprise/II, very good moment immediately followed up by the immense regret in Flowers,,ough <3

Obligatory honorary mention to her verse in Wait for me reprise though because. Cmon. Literally perfect

Idea for a story

Always a fan of seeing interpretations of what her life was like pre and post the events of Hadestown, love those in all shapes and forms (tho that also applies to all other characters, tbf).

If I have to come up with something on the spot, I’d say watching how she comes back to hadestown after Orpheus turned back and seeing her actively try and struggle to not forget him and her life with him again would be pretty cool

Unpopular opinion

I don’t think I’ve got any? All of my takes tend to be pretty cold lmao

Favorite relationship

Orphydice. I don’t even need to give an explanation here

Favorite headcanon

That lumberjack headcanon you came up with is still golden. But also a bc of mine is that she’s actually really good at cooking when she actually has the food to do so; but sucks at baking (which I hc Orpheus to excel at)

tour blurb

I can't say anything BC it's the same (almost) unit of measurement that I apply when I go to concerts.

Smsmksksa (not so much) joking aside, the mic unit of measurement is the most useful and obvious for the concert donut. I know they updated the number and positions of the mics,, so I am now kind of curious of the ratio drum riser/mics on the stage. Like there are 4 battle station on the donut, how many mics between every drum kit? This is a math problem due to monday

*coff* that said did they discussed it in tuning rooms etc bc lars asked James to stay in his line of site for the most of it?

But like, of course for stages like the one in Milan, it wasn't like that, even if it was smaller
