IWTV S2 OST - Hella Spoilery

Daniel Hart woke up and chose violence, I see. (Link)

I don't wanna hear any of the tracks until I actually see the episodes they're in--the emotional impact will hit so much harder that way. But the titles alone have me like 👀👀👀

Ep1: What Can the Damned Really Say to the Damned?

We were already devastated by the strings in Ep1, such beautiful tracks, and my favorite scene in S2 so far, as Louis just cried his eyes out over knowing his baby girl could dream. It was such a perfect nod to Merrick, and Louis thanking her for showing him Claudia's diaries.

EMMY. 👏 WHEN? 👏

Ep2: Do You Know What It Means to be Loved By Death?

These definitely look like they're going in episode order--this is all Theatre stuff we've seen bits of in the teasers. I'm unsure about Ep3 & Ep4 though; I'm just going off of my hunches ATM?

Ep3: No Pain | Ep4: I Want You More Than Anything in the World

WOAH. 😲

I see you Mr. Gentleman Death, but hold on a sec--

Welp, it's official, Tale of the Body Thief is definitely cooking; the Raglan James leaks weren't lying! I am SO happy! And terrified!

If they're going by the order in the books, not the teaser/promo, then rule #4 is about Lestat, and "killing your own kind."

I have no idea why this track is way at the bottom of the playlist

But I suspect it's also related to this episode, and whatever goes down with the Coven/Theatre vs Claudia & Louis.

We were told in a recent review that "I Don't Like Windows When They're Closed" is the song Claudia performs as Baby LouLou; I am SO excited for this! It's gonna be WEIRD, I can feel it. 👶🏾🎼

These tracks are way at the bottom of the playlist and IDKY, but it's obvs Claudia as Baby LouLou, and that's just French for "I Don't Like Windows...."

Ep5: Don't Be Afraid, Just Start the Tape

The backstory we've all been waiting for! ^0^

And they already warned us that Ep5 was gonna be effing NUTS, so I imagine Armand will tell his story to DANIEL--in SanFran????

Ep6: Like the Light by which God Made the World Before He Made Light | Ep7: I Could Not Prevent It

👀👀👀☀️🔥💀🔥🎭🔥⚰️⚰️⚰️🔥💀🍿

Who TF is Francis? Francis of Assssi? XD

PLEASE let this be Lestat's POV when he first got to NOLA--I wanna know why he went there, and where he was BEFORE! Was he asleep? Is he STILL asleep in 2022?!

👀👀👀☀️🔥💀🔥🎭🔥⚰️⚰️⚰️🔥💀🍿

PLEASE let this be Louis discovering the Fire Gift as he lights those mofos up! 🙏🙏🙏🙏

The Garden of Satan is giving me Children of Satan/Darkness vibes--maybe this is about Nicki ALSO dying in a fire? 👀 Jfc this is too much.

Ep8: Unannounced Mystery Title

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and assume the PLETHORA of songs left on this list are from Ep8, cuz I literally have zero context for it--all we know is that it will supposedly segue into S3 TVL.

The crooner is back! But will it be REAL Lestat? in 2022? Rockstar!Lestat!? Flashbacks to 1900s!Loustat? Or more DreamStat?

Yeah, I got nuthin.

Lestat mentioned Le Bucheron before about dogs vs lambs--

--so I'm wondering if this has anything to do with Les feeling like he's still being "herded" by lesser vampires?

Or perhaps GREATER vampires (Armand.... Magnus.... TWMBK?)

This is all giving me heavy TVL vibes!

HOWEVER--

"Followed Closely By My Madness" could be for Nicki, but we all know it could also be referring to LOUIS, a la Merrick. ☀️💀🔥⚰️👀

I am SO STOKED for this season, they better stop playing with me!

Summary:

Cooper’s touch starved … that’s it, that’s the post

Additional Tags:

Brain woke up and chose violence. I Wrote This Instead of Sleeping BECAUSE BRAIN WOKE ME UP, Anyways. Mateo forgets to be physically affectionate sometimes. Touch Starved Cooper. Ficlet. headcanons. Fluff and Hurt/Comfort. The besties just cuz. no beta we die like my brain

Mateo had to admit he sometimes forgot to be physically affectionate with people. He figured that it was partially tied to his general spaciness with how he could get so tied up with his comics and the stories in his head that typical, needed everyday things like eating or, yeah, showing physical affection went right out the window. Another part of his forgetfulness was probably because between Izzie and his dad they gave him more than enough physical affection to go around. 

So yeah, it slipped his mind sometimes and he occasionally had to remind himself to give affection yet he couldn’t help but feel confusion wash over him as he wrapped his arms around Cooper and felt the other teen tense under his touch. He wasn’t that bad at showing affection, was he? 

Mateo awkwardly pulled back and looked up at Cooper. He found the blond with his eyes shut tight and shrugging his shoulders up like he was bracing himself to be hit. 

“Are you ok?” Mateo asked carefully, tilting his head to the side. 

Cooper slowly opened his eyes and glanced around before his eyes landed on Mateo for moment. Just as quickly though Cooper’s gaze flicked away. 

“Yep, I’m doing great!” Cooper responded, while flexing his fingers on one hand and using his thumb to crack the fingers on the other. Mateo knew his friend well enough to note that that was one of his nervous stims, that along with singing. 

Mateo watched his friend crack his fingers for a moment more before, fixated on why Cooper was starting to act so shifty. He was avoiding something, something relating to their hug if Mateo had to guess. 

The small inkling of a theory started to pop up in Mateo’s head and deciding to test it he reached out a hand to grab Cooper’s wrist. 

There was a squeak but Cooper let his wrist be held, and then his hand as Mateo laced their fingers together. 

“Cooper,” Mateo started, locking eyes with the other, “when was the last time you were hugged?” 

Cooper instantly looked away and for a second Mateo felt himself wondering if he had crossed some sort of boundary. 

With a hum Cooper fiddled with their interlocked fingers, rubbing his thumb across Mateo’s kuckles and then muttered, “Uhhh, I think five days ago? It was when Albert used me as a meatshield to get out of hugging Izzie,”

Mateo choked in disbelief, “What?” 

Cooper shrugged, “Meh, it’s fine. I mean Logan used me as an armrest the other day, oh and Night Hunter body slammed me too.” 

Cooper did know that last one didn’t really count as physical affection right? 

Even disregarding that last part Mateo was still left baffled, how had it been five days since Cooper had last had a hug? Didn’t his family… oh. 

“Can I hug you?” Mateo wondered quietly. 

Cooper looked back, a pout on his face and a sadness in his eyes as if he might start to cry, “Please?” 

Mateo obliged, yanking Cooper into his grip and squeezing until the blond grunted, uncomfortable with the tightness. Mateo eased up his grip a little and nuzzled his face into Cooper’s chest as he wrapped his arms around Mateo in return. 

Eventually Cooper seemed to melt into the hug completely and Mateo found himself making a mental note to start to hug Cooper more.

Simulacra(1, 2, PD) Incorrect Quotes Part 2

These mainly take as if it was somewhat the Content AU(their nicknames, genders, and other) and mixed slightly with canon, depending on the quote. I may do art of them at some point, feel free to do art of them yourself though, if you want, just tag me since I'd want to see it. For context: -The first Simulacra(from Simulacra 1) is nicknamed Phoney. -The second Simulacra(from Simulacra 2) is nicknamed Ripple Man, obv. -The Pipe Dreams Simulacra is nicknamed Flappee. -The MC from the first game is labeled MC 1, MC from the second game being labeled as MC 2. -The MC from Pipe Dreams is labeled MC PD.

Flappee: I woke up and chose VIOLENCE. I WILL COMMIT ARSON AND BURN EVERYTHING TO THE GROUND!!! I AM ANGRY- Teddy: Awwww, you’re so adorable! Give me a hug~ Flappee: Wh-What? nO, yOURE SUPPOSED TO BE SCARED OF ME! TREMBLE BEFORE MY WRATH- MC PD, recording: This is so cute.

Flappee: I dare you to kiss the next person who walks into this room. Teddy: Screw that, I’m not kissing any of you. MC PD walks in Teddy: Fine, I’ll do it. Rules are rules you know.

the Squad cleaning up MC PD: Pick up the nearest piece of trash and throw it away. Flappee, to Teddy: Aight, which bin do you wanna go in—

Arya: Imagine if someone handed you a box full of all the things you lost throughout your life. Rippleman: It would be nice to have my sense of purpose back… Rex: Oh wow, my childhood innocence! Thank you for finding this. Mina: My will to live! I haven't seen this in years. MC 2: I knew I lost that potential somewhere. Maya: Mental stability, my old friend! Arya: Jesus, could you guys lighten up a little?

Mina: Who the fuck added me to a fucking group chat? Maya: >:O language Rippleman: Yeah watch your fucking language Rex: Okay, who taught Rippleman the fuck word?! Arya: 'The fuck word'. MC 2: Are you stupid? You guys use the f word all the time Rippleman: Oh my god they censored it Arya: Say fuck, MC 2. Rippleman: Do it, MC 2. Say fuck.

Arya: Who else is hiding in the laundry room trying to listen to MC 2 and Maya's convo? Mina: Me. I'm in the laundry basket. Rippleman: I'm in the washing machine. Rex: I'm in the closet. Mina: We accept you Rex. <3 Rex: No I'm literally in the closet. Mina: Love is love. <3

Arya: She was poetry, but he couldn't read. MC 2: His name was Jared he's 19. Mina: When his parents built a very strange machine. Rippleman, singing: Watch that scene, digging the dancing queen. Maya, singing: Eyyyy, Macarena! Rex: Horrible job everyone.

Murilo, to Rippleman: Why is MC 2 not talking? Rippleman: I'm playing the silent game with them. Murilo: Well, then you just lost. Rippleman: I lost two hours ago. I gave them ear plugs and told them to close their eyes. It was the only way I could think of to get them to shut up.

MC 2: Why's it called an oven when you of in the cold food and you of out hot eat the food? Murilo: …What???

MC 2: I don’t think we can mansplain, manipulate, or malewife our way out of it this time. Murilo: cracks knuckles Manslaughter it is!

MC PD: I think MC 2 is in trouble. MC 1: Alright. Struggling to give a fuck, if I’m honest.

Rippleman: Hey bro, what do you want to eat? Phoney: The souls of the innocent! Flappee: A bagel. Phoney: No! Flappee: Two bagels.

Flappee: It’s impossible to make a sentence without using the letter A. Phoney: Despite your thinking, it is quite possible, yet difficult, to form one without the specific letter. Here’s one more to further disprove your theory. Rippleman: Fuck you.

Rippleman: Now, Flappee, all of us are doing this because we care about you, okay? Phoney: Except for me. I just wanted to see the look on your face.

Rippleman: Where is everyone? Flappee: Phoney had a nervous collapse, MC 2 is looking after them, MC 1 is trying to kill MC PD, so I’m in charge. Rippleman: Oh my god! Flappee: I know, right?

MC 1: Man, they look like a real handful. How do you deal with them? Phoney, watching Flappee screaming, Rippleman trying to set a sleeping MC PD on fire, and MC 2 choking on air: I don't know either.

Taylor: When Phoney was born, the gods said, "They're too perfect for this world." Anna: Please. When they were born, the devil said, "Oh, competition."

Anna: Hey, check out my Spongebob umbrella! Anna opens their umbrella while indoors Taylor: Anna, that’s bad luck… Anna: Chill out, Taylor! Phoney, kicking down the door: WHO SUMMONED ME?!?! Anna and Taylor: screams

Anna: How do you do that? Taylor: I'm fearless. Phoney: I saw you run from bees yesterday. You flailed around and tripped over a chair. It was both hysterical and sad. Taylor: I'm mostly fearless.

Mina: What do rainbows mean to you? Arya: Gay rights. Rippleman: There's money. Murilo: The sign of God's promise to never destroy the whole Earth with a flood. Rex: It is an optical phenomenon that separates sunlight into its continuous spectrum when the sun shines on raindrops.

Murilo: Anyone d- Arya: Depressed? Rex: Drained? Mina: Dumb? Rippleman: Disliked? Murilo: -done with their work… what is wrong with you people…

I stole a peek into my friend’s drafts of OCs that they like to shove into their dusty closet (aka google docs) and much to my own surprise I think I like the spare shogun puppet one (based on Ei’s lore stories about making “countless experiments” and “many failed products”) because it’s such a delightful mix of serious but also wacky. To quote another friend of another fandom that I frequent: “instead of choosing sugar, spice and rainbow sprinkles, they really woke up and chose violence, fire ants, wasabi-flavored Doritos and a touch of blowtorch to make Teyvat’s most bizarre crème brûlée.” And might I personally add, it’s been sprinkled with the chaotic flavors of other animes you’re most likely not familiar with. Example POV from an outside perspective: You’re a Treasure Hoarder and you come across a lovely lass in the dead of night, and think she’ll make for an easy target to rob. Even moreso as you get closer and notice that she’s dragging something that is, by the sound of it, quite heavy (like a forest boar or a crocodile or something after a hunt). But then you get closer, and you see that she’s dragging not a boar, or a crocodile— It’s a Ruin Grader. Not its eyeball-core-thingamajig. Not one of its arm. Not of its legs. A WHOLE-ASS RUIN GRADER. And you keep seeing her several times doing a bunch of other crazy shit. And your confusion (and mounting fear) triples when she washes out the hair dye and you realize she resembles the Raiden Shogun. Oh, you know, the crazy lightning booba sword lady that dusted one of the Fatui Harbingers like the latter was a bug spinning cobwebs in her house? The girl: “Ehe, m—me? I’m just a housewife—” Treasure Hoarder: 😭 “‘JUst A hOUse wIfe’ mY ASS!!! WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU—” Insert that woman yelling at a cat meme (with the Treasure Hoarder as the woman yelling and the girl as the cat). Why am I dropping this in your inbox? Because I can imagine see your Niwa as the other woman holding back the first one (the Treasure Hoarder crying and losing their mind). Obvs Niwa is (unfortunately) not in the actual drafts cuz he’s, like, dead…but I couldn’t help imagining your Niwa in this kind of scenario since the Treasure Hoarder is going to be a running gag (the poor soul). 😬

I'll be the first to admit that I'm very ignorant of many animes! I am a I know of them more than I am a I've watched that one in a lot of cases (if I'm not outright just plain ???)! But, agreed, that there are lots and lots of examples of what you speak of with the characters in Genny Pact! Even some of the NPCs have that about them, and it makes me love them all the more since they, somehow, win my heart that way!

Oh, wow, your friend has a very interesting and fun sounding oc there! I'm unsure if the treasure hoarder is also an oc of theirs, but I love both of them! The poor treasure hoarder...

Thoughts on Din meeting Boba during his time with Ran's crew?

really woke up this morning and chose violence, huh

-Din during his time with Ran: emotionally closed off!! feels like he is drifting through his life without a real purpose, frustrated that he can’t reconcile the mandalorian way with the human connection he wishes he had

-boba, hasn’t yet taken the ‘get involve in the skywalker shitshow’ job, out here just doing his thing, bounty hunting, being lonely

-ran’s crew isn’t working WITH him but their adjacent job fucks up his somehow and he is Displeased

-boba is quite weirded out to see a mandalorian with this whole fiasco. he thinks maybe din is just... an ex-mandalorian?? in which case.. he wants to talk to din. he’s never felt like one of them and has this weird pull to din. he’s also rejected by them! he wants to know he isn’t alone!

-finding out din is in fact still a mandalorian is kind of a disappointment to boba. he gets din alone and asks him and din is affronted, says of course he is one; he’s feeling touchy about it, like boba could sense him doubting his own dedication, and gets defensive

-meanwhile, this is not a great time for din to find out that this Legendary Mandalorian is in fact... not. boba keeps saying them and not us and it’s another used-to-be-keystone of din’s understanding falling apart

-cue din nearly accusing boba “but you never take the helmet off!” and boba just shaking his head and telling him “that doesn’t make me one of them”

-din’s distressed because... if boba is not a mandalorian, but he’s also alone, it’s like there’s no right answer and no creed that can give him what he wants

- obvs there’s some not-loving but oddly tender banging. din doesn’t know how he can simultaneously hate someone and also feel so empathetic towards him. Boba takes his helmet off and din… wants to. doesn’t, but wants to. kind of tries to, but boba stops him, tells him it’s still important to you

- they part ways, but din never stops thinking about him and seven years later, he decides to look for boba again. He’s been broken and he’s been through the sarlacc pit and he’s been struggling ever since but din came looking for him specifically and after 7 years apart, boba doesn’t have to wonder what din’s face looks like anymore

okay so i LITERALLY did not know metro station came out with anything after the first album until you started posting but you've got me listening to them again and oh my god how good was savior though???

god like honestly fucking same??? i listened to the first album when it came out (obv) but there was SO MUCH GOOD MUSIC coming out that they were never really up front in my brain, and i absolutely wasn’t into any of them at the time, then they fell off my radar entirely. i knew they broke up in 2010 and that was it really. it was HONESTLY. ON GOD. FOR REAL. just because i listened to shake it and spoitfy woke up and chose violence with that artist image. like “oh. oh do NOT like that i’m into you now that’s embarrassing” then saw the wiki said ‘metro station IS a band’ like..... the FUCK do you mean ‘is’???? what is that present tense doing??? hello???

i completely totally missed everything which is really for the best bc i wouldn’t have survived gold/savior in real time. both for how good it is and also *gestures at 2015 trace*

also you are very right savior is. so fucking good. like metro station was great but savior is just. rude, that’s what it is. it’s RUDE.

we need to get shirts like “i listen to metro station in 2021 on purpose”
