lmao rachel that would all be well and good... if that was actually hades and persephone 💀😭

that's really the smoking gun here that rachel is 1.) always drawing H x P smut by default and can just put things in black and grey to make it look like any other character 2.) all of her characters suffer from so much same face syndrome that even she can't tell them apart and 3.) rachel doesn't even read her own comic anymore

(Spoilers for Honkai Star Rail Penacony quest ahead) TLDR - This is a story of how I accidentally ended up linking Sunday and Batman. Let me explain.

So I love whatever Hoyo cooks with their music, because they tend to pull from a wide array of sources and references - particularly with Star Rail, where with each planet/space station/ship, we get something vastly different. Cut to the part of concern with Sunday and his boss form, the references are overtly from classical music. Part 1 of Sunday's boss music is named Symphony No. 8 'A Thousand Suns'. The title is a not so subtle reference to Mahler's Symphony No.8 dubbed as the Symphony of a Thousand. I'm not getting much into how themes of Mahler 8 represent Sunday because that's not too relevant here. It does make perfect sense for his boss theme to however, reference it in name and basic structure. Now, I would have left it at that and carried on with my life until I heard this motif in the beginning of this BUCK-TICK song called Babel

Which is identical to this organ motif on the OST

Now considering Hoyo composers' tendencies to make overt references to existing music and rock/metal music's general track record of referencing classical music, I assumed the phrase comes from an existing piece. However, my knowledge of repertoire is not that vast, so I took to reddit. And very shockingly and amusingly enough I was pointed to...The Batman theme with that phrase appearing here

which begs the question and normally one would dismiss it as a coincidence but WHAT DOES SUNDAY HAVE TO DO WITH BATMAN??? Is this cause Robin cause that would simultaneously be the smartest and dumbest thing at the same time

For what it's worth, this might be foreshadowing to Sunday's fate post Penacony, but this has affected my pattern recognizing brain in ways I can't even describe because I went in looking for a neatly aligning classical reference and all I have ended up on is...the Batman theme. Of course, one can come up with parallels and stuff, such as this person who helped me find it on reddit

But all this just leaves me more puzzled from where I initially started. I would appreciate more musings though, if you happen to stumble upon this post

PS: I kind of see a vision of linking Goethe's Faust which is referenced by Mahler 8 to both Sunday and Batman, but it's too much of stretch within the context of something that is at best a coincidence

Had a dream that Olruggio confessed his feelings to Qifrey and after a moment of shock and oh, that explains everything now ala that zoomed-in eye moment from Kitchen, - they kissed a bunch. But then Qifrey tried to convince Olly that they should wipe their memory of the night because things are too complicated rn for a relationship, and Olly was like... "You're a terrible man for making me have to go through confessing again," and wondering if maybe they've done all this before.

And Qifrey was like, "well, maybe I was the one who confessed last time?" and Olly just stares at him like, no way. Because Olly would never have agreed to erasing their memories if he had witnessed Qifrey saying it.

So Qifrey pulls out a paper with the seal on it and gives a half-assed speech about how 'maybe in the future when things are more settled, then they can...' and Olly just watches him, knowing something is off but unable to piece together why. But he gives him another kiss and says he'll be holding Qifrey to it.

They each hold half of the paper and complete the seal. And then... wake up at the kitchen table, the paper a pile of ash beside them.

Modern au:

So Dorian has this chair, which he has grown to hate.

It's a very comfortable spacious chair. It reclines with a press of a button and has many uses: for work, reading, sex, relaxation, and a lot more.

At nights when he's busy with dinner and Manon is finishing up work, she sometimes uses the chair. (un)fortunately, because she's oh-so exhausted and still tries to squeeze in work, she ends up falling asleep.

This is where Dorian is torn. On one hand, he wants her to rest and if she's sleeping then that's good. On the other hand, he doesn't want her to go to sleep without food. Also, he doesn't want her to sleep there, no matter how big and comfy the chair is. But also, Manon is a light sleeper and she will wake up if he carries her to bed which might disrupt her sleep later at night.

Decisions decisions, he eventually settles on waking her, because it is still early and if she goes to sleep now she will be awake by two or three in the morning which is not good. He can push their bedtime an hour or two later than usual which is a better solution.

watching bad cupid m/v and Steve in handcuffs UGH i need him cuffed up in my bed NOW

— 🐈‍⬛

OMG ILYSM PLEASE SUB!STEVE‼️SUB!STEVE‼️SUB!STEVE‼️

no but like imagine his wrists cuffed to the headboard, his head tipped back as he looks up at you with wide, pleading eyes. his cocky front is long gone now, replaced by a soft, desperate edge in his voice as he murmurs, 'please... what are you waiting for?'

his shirt is slipping off his shoulders, exposing his flushed skin, and he tugs lightly at the cuffs as if testing your mercy. but you just smirk, leaning in close until your lips are barely brushing his ear.

'patience, baby.’ you murmur, fingers tracing down his chest agonizingly slow. his breath hitches, and he shifts under you, completely under your control, his voice trembling as he whispers, 'i’ll be good... i promise. just don't make me wait any longer!"

steve tugs helplessly at the cuffs, the soft clink of metal the only sound in the room apart from his shallow breathing. his head falls back against the headboard, lips parted and eyes hazy, a quiet plea escaping him 'please... just touch me already.’

you trail your fingers just above his skin, not quite giving him what he wants, and his body shudders beneath the ghost of your touch. ‘i am touching you,' you say, your tone dripping with amusement, watching as his jaw tightens in frustration.

'not like that.’ he whispers, voice shaking as he squirms under your gaze. the vulnerability and neediness in his expression sends a thrill through you- steve, usually so shy and untouchable, is completely undone, entirely at your mercy.

your hand finally dips lower and embraces his length, warm and firm, and he gasps, arching instinctively into the contact. 'there it is,’ you purr, lips brushing against his ear. 'is that what you wanted?'

he nods frantically, his breath hitching, voice breaking as he stammers, 'yes... yes, more, please!’ but you take your time, savoring the way he falls apart, piece by piece, under your control.

One of my big compulsions is taking a fuck ton of screenshots Just In Case a piece of information is important in like 4 years and I can't remember it (sometimes the information is an instagram post that I might not remember later and of course needs to be recorded everywhere (I will Not be looking at that again)) so today is my transfer 16000 images off my phone admin day (woo)

Like yeah I never looked at any of them and they were completely irrelevant to my daily life, But what if I need them ✨️ later ✨️ (you'll see that the idea of Later is doing a lot of heavy lifting here) OR what if there's a vital piece of information in the mix somewhere that I'll lose forever if I delete them? So: onto the external hard drive they go

This is one of those cases where. Yeah. Ideally I wouldn't take 16000 screenshots in half a year. And YEAH ideally I'd just delete them and not transfer them somewhere else to never look at again. BUT at least I get a clean slate and I can maybe not mindlessly save everything for 2 seconds. It's like. Small wins? Progress. Yknow.
