In that same vein I Can Do It With a Broken Heart IS so so so ridiculously Alex Claremont-Diaz and I'm prepared to die on that hill

it's driving me insane how much "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" is Henry

#im still processing this album so like give me a second #alex claremont diaz #rwrb

someone please get my favorite white boy Henry on the phone and tell him that Taylor Swift is releasing another back and white album like rep and folklore in 6 minutes and it was worked on by Aaron dessner and the aesthetic is gothic Victorian and it's called the tortured poets department and it's set in a psych ward and one of the tracks is called so long, London (the same year he left London and decided to abdicate) she did this for HIM SPECIFICALLY (and me) I know he probably fell down the stairs when it got announced but PLEASE

"I know well that, at this hour, I could as easily forget your name as the food by which I live; nay, it were easier to forget the food, which only nourishes my body miserably, than your name, which nourishes both body and soul, filling the one and the other with such sweetness that neither weariness nor fear of death is felt by me while memory preserves you to my mind. Think, if the eyes could also enjoy their portion, in what condition I should find myself."

════════════════════.✾. ═

Boys, workin' on empty

Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?

I just think about my baby

I'm so full of love I could barely eat

There's nothing sweeter than my baby

I'd never want once from the cherry tree

'Cause my baby's sweet as can be

She give me toothaches just from kissin' me

When my time comes around

Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth

No grave can hold my body down

I'll crawl home to her

════════════════════.✾. ═

"they asked 'do you love her to death?'

i said 'speak of her over my grave and watch how she brings me back to life'"

(this gets mildly heavy and majorly cheesy, and the grammar is terrible so beware)

To Henry,

The character who is quite possibly the main reason I am still here today. The character who has given me hope for the first time in my life; hope in both the future and myself. The character who has not only inspired me to keep on living, but who teaches me everyday how to, as ridiculous as that may sound. Who brings me endless joy and comfort.

He's the safest place I know, the personification of a hug, a guy who feels like the words "it's gonna be okay, dude" come to life. And he's REALLY good at projecting onto lol, as I'm sure the majority of you know. He has a way of making it all feel manageable, or at the very least, survivable, and is proof that you can survive the very worst things, and the next very worst things, with your softness and capacity for kindness still intact. He's proof that those painful things do not have to be the end-all be-all to defining you. They're a part of the picture, sure, but not in the same ways that your loving heart and budding (if questionable) passion for cooking are.

I'll love you forever, Mr. Fox. Bravest guy in the world.

I've been a part of this fandom for over three years now, and I don't know how much longer this will last (my hyper fixations always fizzle out eventually) but I do know one thing:

Happy 27th ya old fuck 🫶

#baby boy #feliz cumpleaños gringo #light of my life #idk how i feel about actually posting this lol #i know im usually sentimental but this is heavy even for me so #this doesn't even scratch the surface but i just needed to say SOMETHING #rwrb #henry fox mountchristen windsor #red white and royal blue #im a day late i know but i over thought this one a lot so bear with me

[looking-for-orion]

want so badly to do one of those "match the Taylor swift lyric to the RWRB line" projects, album for album but I know it's probably stupid

also seriously thinking about making a side blog purely dedicated to firstprince song association/suggestions because it's my favorite thing in the world even if no one else vibes with it

#red white and royal blue #rwrb #nevermind me just bored and missing our boys

[looking-for-orion]

Okay be careful with this one it's kind of a sad one

(tw: death, implied widowhood?? Is that a thing?)

Everyone on here already knows my love for song association, especially the official playlists Casey makes us. But sometimes I actually hate it because I was going through all the new songs they added for Henry and

You said "Don't go changing

I'll rearrange to let you in

And I'll be your historian

And you'll be mine

And I'll fill pages of scribbled ink

Hoping the words carry meaning"

Then one day, the motorcade

Covered in flower wreaths

First in a big parade

Will come to take one of us away

Leaving the other with plenty to read

Quite possibly the most heart wrenching fucking lyrics you could give them. The idea of their letters to each other over their lives...you know what nope I don't even want to think about that. What the actual fuck.

#does this need a tw? #cause i feel like it might #no thanks casey #red white and royal blue #rwrb #song association

[looking-for-orion]

bringing this back to say that

1. Absolutely obsessed with Alex crying over All I've Ever Known like that IS his song for Henry now (taste, honestly. Hadestown goes HARD) I love that that is canon. I love that I can say that happened.

2. Imagining them at Six was fun until I absolutely traumatized myself imagining Henry hearing All You Wanna Do. He deserves everything good and nothing bad ever again. That'll fly over some heads but iykyk I guess

#i was an insufferable theatre kid for my entire teenhood #fun fact #red white and royal blue #rwrb #henry fox mountchristen windsor #alex claremont diaz #firstprince #casey mcquiston

very excited for the release of the tortured poets department so I can immediately associate every single song with firstprince, as usual.

Do y'all ever see something and think "wow * insert fictional character* would love this" ?

Usually it's just passing thought, but then I saw a Star Wars themed parody of Mr. Brightside and now I am in complete mourning that I don't live in a universe where I can DM it to Alex and Henry because they would LOVE IT

And to those who haven't seen it here's the link to what I strongly believe would be firstprince's new favorite thing:

Sub-Radio - Mr. Darkside (Full Video)

#Youtube #they literally bonded over their love of star wars and the killers it's actually perfect for them #this is booklore so sorry to movie only people #rwrb #red white and royal blue #alex claremont diaz #henry fox mountchristen windsor #firstprince

[looking-for-orion]

Thinking of firstprince doing the whole "name a woman" trend on tiktok rn and I know logically Alex would probably name some super powerful feminist activists or politicians and henry would go with some poet or author but IN MY HEAD it would go something like

"Alex, name a woman!"

"my mama 🥰🫶"

"Henry, name a woman!"

"Ummm uh. ummm...Sappho."

#alex claremont diaz is a mamas boy #and hes the only one we accept #always heading the 'henry is a lesbian protector' agenda btw #this is a shitpost #rwrb #red white and royal blue #alex claremont diaz #henry fox mountchristen windsor

I was telling someone about some cute firstprince fanart I saw that kind of recreated this:

With Alex and Henry and their babies and i've been scrolling through everything on each platform and I can't find it and now I'm starting to think I dreamed or hallucinated it. so if anyone has seen this please send me a link or screenshot or something please I'm losing it over here

"Thank you for meeting me in the wood. Thank you for leading me home.

Happy Christmas"

You know I have an affinity for making playlists or associating songs by now.

Thanks for everyone who contributed, I tried to squeeze all of your songs onto here! (the apple bottoms jeans cover of feliz navidad is sadly not on Spotify but istg the *moment* someone puts in on there I'll add it) if anyone else has a song they want on here I'll add it too! A lot of these are songs I stole from my own childhood as a Tex Mex lol, so feel free to request others

Happy Holidays to those who celebrate, and a happy winter to those who don't. I hope this adds a little joy to your life, as you all constantly add joy to mine.

Hoping all of your Yule Logs turn out edible and your New Years Eve ends with hope and new beginnings

XOXO❤️

(pssst. Iksw doesn't have a full soundtrack like RWRB and OLS so I made a playlist if you want it 💕)

#i kissed shara wheeler #casey mcquiston #playlist #im not a pro at these yet but i made it with love #Spotify

What songs do you think Alex and Henry would have on their Christmas/Holiday playlist? (for science)
