i just caught up with a breach of trust and I don't even know WHAT to say. thank you? jesus christ? oh my god? my husband and friends all hate me bc I won't shut up about it? I've never read a fanfic that could hold a candle? a match even? I've been reading in all my spare time. I've had dreams bc it's the last thing I'm thinking about at night. then I read more over breakfast. WOW? wowowowow? thank you again?
(A Breach of Trust)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Thank you for being as brain-rotted as I am over this Utter Behemoth of a fic!! It's woven into the fabric of my being at this point.
I've poured my heart and soul into it and it means so so much to me, so hearing that OTHER people are like, bothering the people in their OWN lives about it? Wow. I'm very happy over the notion that there are strangers who know vaguely of ABoT because their loved one wanted to tell them all about it.
I've really loved building it up from an empty Word document. I'm really happy and lucky other people have come along for that. Thank you!!

Last Sentence Tag
Thank you for the tag, @the-down-upside-finch.
Rules: post the last sentence you wrote in your WIP and tag as many of your followers as there are words in the sentence.
Another line out of the next Empty Names chapter (19, full chapter will be posted this weekend):
Starlight of the Dark Forest nevermore must sing.
That's 8 words, so 8 people to tag.

@blind-the-winds
@ceph-the-ghost-writer
@cat-esper
@eldritchx
@void-botanist
@mjparkerwriting
Plus the usual open tag to anyone else who wants to join in.
But also, because I always get a little over-excited when I wind up inserting poetic-ish spell incantations into my prose, here's the full version of this as a bonus excerpt:
“O Green World, answer this mere traveler’s call.
Rise up so that we might bury this unclean thing.
Pierce and purify, be sweet and swift the fall.
Even that which knows not death still may feel your sting.
O Green World, by my blood and breath forestall.
Starlight of the Dark Forest nevermore must sing.”

with literally any fic from the shoulder the sky series. or maybe even 1 for each book in the series to make a series playlist. either way, i love the series 🧡🧡
Why yes, I am replying to this a month late- sorry anon, I just got so excited and had FAR too much fun with this:
♫ send a fic and i’ll make a 3-5 song playlist for you
So MAYBE I went a bit overboard, I just did a playlist for each and restrained myself to listing 3-5 songs here:
back then, i was dauntless:
Hieroglyphs, by The Oh Hellos
Antebellum, by Vienna Teng
We Can Build a Fire, by Autoheart
The Calling, by The Amazing Devil
Inkpot Gods, by the Amazing Devil
if i don't make it back:
The Parting Glass, by Celtic World Orchestra
My Friends, by Oh Wonder
Heaven Knows, by Five For Fighting
Elysium, by Bear's Den
Inkpot Gods, by the Amazing Devil
how to bring him home:
Welcome Home, Son, by Radical Face
Secret for the Mad, by Dodie
Not Home Yet, by the Gray Havens
No Light, No Light, by Florence and The Machine
Inkpot Gods, by the Amazing Devil
like lightning changing hands:
The Horror and the Wild, by The Amazing Devil
Wise One, by The Gothard Sisters
Homeward, by Future of Forestry
On Giant's Shoulders, by Future of Forestry
(Skipping and bit by bit because I couldn't stop myself from adding songs that spoke to the return to Kamino fic, haha, whoops, so I'm saving that for later >:3)
The ask game in question
Thanks so much for the ask and the kind words, anon <333 they are very much appreciated!

i've been talking abt my voltron playlists and @iveofficiallygonemad asked to hear them and i want to share with anybody who wants!! i know they're not perfect, i'm working on them & trying to make them better. if you have any recommendations for any of them, let me know!! there's like A Lot and i want to give a lil explanation for most of them, so i'm putting them under the cut ^-^
SO first i have my favorite one <3 it's just. all of them. it's the whole team. it's a mess and it's a bunch of different genres because it's them fighting over the aux cord on a road trip. it's them trying to make each other laugh or annoy each other or play something catchy enough it will infect everyone in the vicinity with brain worms.
Hunk: i'm pretty happy with my Hunk playlist! chill vibes. he strikes me as the kind of guy who listens to calm music to try to find his own calm, and that's what i got here :)
Pidge: this is messier and less cohesive than my usual playlist because frankly i think pidge would have a shit taste in music. all over the board. this is a mix of meme songs and 8-bit covers and vocaloid and stuff that i think pidge would genuinely connect with, and i think pidge listens to all their music on shuffle without any regards for genre or mood because they're a gremlin. nobody gives pidge sole control of the aux.
Coran hears 80's music for the first time and loses his mind. He thinks ABBA is humanity's single greatest achievement.
Lance: i have ideas about where I'm going with this but haven't really settled yet. Lance seems like the kind of boy that loves to dance (is that canon? i forgot) so most of these are Bops That Make You Move in some way or another. he likes to present an upbeat face to the world, so there's no angsting in this playlist! we are clinging to the things that make us happy with both hands until our knuckles turn white!
Keith: i'm gonna be honest. i made him a playlist but i honestly don't think he cares about music very much. it's very important to some people! he's just not one of them! i haven't cracked this playlist open in a while but i'm pretty sure it's full of songs that i think he would conceivably train/work out to.
Shiro: this playlist involves the dumbest headcanon i have for shiro that has just not left me alone since i first thought of it. most of the playlist reflects the fact that he had an emo phase in middle school (that one isn't a headcanon, you just have to look at him to know) but BUT there are a few songs on here that are on here because. little known fact. he also went through a Twilight phase that he told nobody about. (keith knows. keith was there.) he has the entire twilight soundtrack memorized. he moved past the story but the music stays forever. he used to daydream about slow dancing to Flightless Bird, American Mouth. the first time Coran mentions that they have to avoid a place because there's a supermassive black hole there, he has to bite his tongue in order to keep a straight face. do NOT ask me why i believe this so wholeheartedly.
Allura's playlist sucks right now. I think it's because in my heart of hearts i know that, were she on earth today, she would go fucking nuts for taylor swift. i have ambivalent feelings for taylor swift. i cannot do allura justice like this. if you see my vision and have recs as to what might actually fit her, PLEASE.
Klance: i haven't done it yet but i'm gonna go through this and sort it to be a sort of progression of their relationship, starting with the more combative Rivalry songs, then slipping into "oh shit oh shit" songs, then maybe ending on the more lighthearted purely romantic songs <3
(i have two songs in a shallura playlist which does not at all encapsulate how much i'm obsessed with them. the tiny cop inside my head is just constantly screaming at me that i'm going to get yelled at for liking shallura. i am going to kill the cop inside my head.)
