🎶✨when u get this u have to put 5 songs u actually listen to, publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool) 🎶✨
I don't think I know what "actually listen to" is meant to imply... favorite? recent? most meaningful? best? most often?
(Nor do I know that I'm able to really answer any of those adequately 😬)
(I suppose I’ll give it a shot, though)
Let’s try one of each, say? And I won’t make them all Sara Bareilles songs (though I could 😂).
(MASSIVE asterisks apply to all of these - ‘favorite’, ‘most meaningful’, ‘best’... could all have ten, twenty, FIFTY answers)
Favorite:

Recent:

Most meaningful:

Best:

Most often:

Vincent Sinclair HC
Tumblr media
Vincent Sinclair hc SFW and NSFW
I’ve haven’t  been seeing my boy get repped recently so I have to do it myself. My first time writing something on here or towards this character ,I promise I will get better y'al,l I made this super quickly not proofread oops.
SFW
-While he can be insecure about his face he definitely has an ego from being the favorite child and having perfected his craft.
Lester drags him out to go for a ride around town or force him to come to his place for some quality brother time (Bo joins every now and then but wants peace and quiet dammit )
‘I know a lot of people have him learn sign language but I think he either writes what he wants to say, speaks as best as he can, or gestures, ( he was born in the south to parents that I don't think cared about communicating with him too much but he could have picked it up later in life maybe in his teen years or middle school era)
More sadistic than Bo when it comes to killing, he doesn't care if they are dead or alive when working on them and takes satisfaction in the result of his work
He prefers to work in silence but you can catch him humming now and then some country song or a guilty pleasure pop song from the 80’s( I see you Vince)
I think he partakes in multiple forms of art besides wax work.We see he’s able to paint, draw, but he also  takes pictures, , sews, writes, makes videos, anything artistic he’s learning and keeping up with new techniques.
Since he takes video of the killings at times I think they sell them as snuff films to make extra cash on top of stealing and selling victims stuff. (At least that’s what I thought when I first watched the film anyone else or just me)
Rarely happens but will keep victims that interest him like Bo ,but dispose of them when they get boring  or no longer match up the ideal version of them in his head.
-Does want a lifelong partner, the white wedding and picket fence, kids,  but knows it might be difficult with the line of work he does.
- He can talk but only does when it’s important or to emphasize something. He does have a southern draw like Bo and I imagine his voice to sound similar but raspier, maybe deeper/ quieter from not using it as much.
-like I said earlier you have to really catch his attention and be able to hold it for more than a week, if that happens then he’s obsessed and protective maybe a little too over protective.
Does indeed have a hair care routine I believe this full throttle and no one can can tell me otherwise I'm not listening.
NSFW
I don't know if he’s a virgin, I don't think he is something is telling me he isn't, but i’m not sure
He has no problem with nudity, bodies are seen as art, there's not as much of a sexual connotation with them as with Bo and Lester .
He wants to be in love with the person he is intimate with, he wants to be worship and worship his muse.
Drawings  of his partner naked as well as in the midst of a passionate night, he might tease them all night to make sure the sketch is as life like and accurate as possible
Good size and thick that's all I gotta say
Praise kink hard core, hearing his partner call him a good boy or how he makes them feel so good he will crumble
He starts slow and sensual, enjoys the control he has and having someone at his power.
I think he will edge you and leave you high and dry when you act out but he always caves by the end of the day and gives you what you need.
Can last a long time surprisingly
Mainly a giver but someone please for the love of god give this man the nastiest had he’s ever received will make the prettiest noises 
Is down to try anything new and more open about sex than you would think.
When he’s horny he comes up behind his partner and starts caressing every inch he can reach, while resting his chin on their shoulder acting as innocent as he can.

Gentle loving
It’s that time of the month when the mania of ovulation has passed and you just need a hug. This is v. self-indulgent but it's so sweet and gentle.
How Simon, Konig, and soap would show their gentle loving:
Simon Ghost Riley seems hard and tough on the outside but there’s something about him, says that he melts at your gentleness. Like he might give you messages- not necessarily in a sexual way but like in a gentle loving way- as you're laying in the bath. You between his legs, sitting on his dick so that you act like a cock warmer grinding slowly at your leisure. The lights are dimmed and sweet smelling candles are lit so that you can read aloud the book you've reading. Ghost is just sitting there, relaxing bathing in the warmth of the water and your love for him.
Konig would be so sweet in making you your favorite dinner. Setting up your dining table with a rose in a small vase, and a candle lit in a wine bottle, that he DIYed earlier. You enter the apartment and he just comes out of the kitchen wearing your strawberry floral apron, welcoming you with a bear hug before you’re even able to take off your shoes, he gets on his knees to take off your shoes. Then after dinner, he puts on your favorite movie and you’re burritoed between blankets and his huge body just encasing you warmly, whispering how lucky he is to have you, and that you look gorgeous, maybe his hand slips down to palm you gently so that you purr into his ears.
Jonny Soap Mactavish loves seeing you laugh, your smile is his favorite thing in the world so he’d try to do whatever he can to cheer you up. Like earlier he saw an ad for a spin-off of Romeo and Juliet, your favorite play, and bought tickets to go see it. Then he’d take you to the best ice cream place on the way home. On the way home he stops at the most beautiful spot in front of the ocean, and you watch the sunset on the back of his truck. Wearing his oversized jacket he adores the look of you. And you end up making out under the stars as the radio plays old 80s love songs.
I'll add the others but you gotta give me a minute I have no thoughts going through my brain as it isxox

Heey, Can you write something about 80's!James X virgin reader?
Imagine him being so horny, trying to be slow not to scare you, but he Caaaaan't!!! Like, he's comforting and praising you while slowly moving and kissing you passionately.
HE IS SO BOYFRIEND 😭😭😭😭
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
AAAAA YES !! i saw something really similar to this on @stevenssticks acc but with Dave in his met days!! ill try my best because i've never done virgin stuff before and also check their acc out too if you haven't!! i love P's stuff so much holy good lord 😇🙏
somewhere near their 4-5th concert during the 80's they'd all put on some type of "meet and greet" typa thing and just pretend that their the shit even though they just started playing gigs. they'd only pick a few girls from the crowd who they had a thing for, probably around four so everyone could have one to themselves so it'd be fair and the boys wouldn't start bitching about it.
luckily, James picked you to come meet him and it was pretty much a dream because you thought he was the cutest one out of all of them, so you were glad enough to take up on the offer. you were kinda dragged out by your girlfriends anyways, but since you knew who he was in the band, you were fine.
everyone was going backstage as James came to get you and surprisingly he was a gentleman, taking your hand softly and flashing you a smile and sounding genuinely interested in you and not like you were some typa groupie. he was walking you to a lounge area where the rest of the boys took their girls as well, you and him sitting on the couch just making conversation, him throwing things out like, "what's your name, pretty thing?" and "gotta favorite song so far?" you could tell he was at least a little interested because of the looks he was giving you, looking like a patient puppy listening to you talk.
you kept talking and soon enough everyone ended their time with the other girls in the room, going home because they got bored, but James ended up staying there with you. it was confusing to you on why he stayed, but you were a little relieved.
James looked around the room for a moment before getting closer to you, putting a hand on your thigh.
"can i kiss you?"
he asked it out of the blue and you started to get a little nervous. of course you've kissed someone before, but the hand on your thigh kept moving higher and higher. you nodded anyways and kissed him, putting your hand on his cheek, caressing it. before you knew it. his hands were making their way under your shirt and to your waist, rubbing up and down on the flesh. he was soon making his way to the band on your skirt, tugging on it softly.
you pulled away, having a hard time looking James in the eyes because of the embarrassment, hoping it wasn't obvious that you were a virgin.
"what's wrong? why'd you stop, baby?"
he grabbed your face, caressing the shell of your ear, hoping he didn't do anything wrong. he was more confused than anything, trying to read your body language.
"oh uh- hey, listen.. i've kinda never done this before, please go slow?"
his eyes widened as his mouth drew agape. he was going to take your virginity, just thinking about it got him rock hard, him closing his legs to not draw attention to himself.
he nodded before tucking your hair behind your ears, kissing you softly again before going to your neck and sucking. your hand was on his head, keeping him in place as you let our soft hums of pleasure, "James," you huffed before he pulled away. he looked up at you and once the contact was gone you let out a whine.
"cmon, why don't you undress for me,"
he asked but it sounded more like a demand and you obliged, obviously. he was watching you strip and looked at every part of you, just mesmerized by your body. once you were in your bra and panties he got down to his boxers, his chest exposed now, "holy shit, you're beautiful.." he whispered softly, soon kissing you again.
his hands crept up on you again, making their way to your panties and finally making their way to your clit, rubbing it in tight circles which made you squirm. your bodies were on top of each other and you could feel the hardness of himself clothed and pressed against your thigh.
he pulled himself out of his boxers, starting to jerk himself off, but you replaced his hand. he cold temperature of your hand made him shudder before he started thrusting up into your palm.
"when can i put it in you, baby??"
he was getting needier by the second, but he wanted to make sure you were comfortable enough before he did anything too much.
you pulled away and pulled your panties off, pushing the blonde off of you and down onto the couch. straddling him, you rubbed yourself on him, giving him a pussy job, just teasing him. he held your hips a little tightly before rubbing them. he looked up at you with pleading eyes, just wanting to be able to fuck you right there and then.
"okay.. you can do it now,"
once he heard that confirmed yes, he immediately flipped positions. your legs were wrapped around his hips as his tip lined up with your cunt, pushing in easier because you were already wet. he looked down at you, holding one of your hands, them interlocked with eachother, "you okay, baby? does it hurt?" you shook your head and soon he started to thrust.
god, it was overwhelming for the both of you. you couldn't even fathom how you could handle James with his size and how he could even enjoy this because you were so tight. you both loved it though, your voices getting louder and louder together. he was moaning about how good you felt around his cock and from all the praises and stimulation you thought you were already cumming, "you're so- so.. tight. feels so good!" he groaned before going faster, holding your hips down and just plowing himself in and out of you while you became more vocal.
this man could be the death of you from how good he was making you feel, "you close, baby? go on, cum on my cock, you can do it.. fuck baby.." he sped up until you came and squirted all over him which just turned him on even more.
"just a little longer, okay? you're doing so well for me, pretty girl"
the thrusting tried to slow, but he couldn't help himself and just ended up fucking you like you were the last person on earth, your body shaking as you kept moaning his name, he finally came. of course he pulled out and came all over your thighs and stomach because he didn't want to risk anything.
he bent down to kiss your lips and tried catching his breath, "my god, you're so fucking good. can't believe that was your first time" he chuckled before kissing you on the forehead.
"sorry if i was too much, but get dressed, im starving. why not treat my girl out?"
he smiled as he helped you get your clothes back on, then his. he carried you out to his car and drove you to the nearest diner to have a nice meal with you <33

Bee!! I gotta ask, if that’s alright! I was listening to Toxic by Britney Spears, and I got to thinkin’ what if the Chain played Just Dance? You can pick anyone you want!
A/N:HEHEHEHEHEHHEHE ur getting the whole chain pookiebear this ask is so freaking good. You always come in with the best asks.
The links(like, actual links lol) are to the dances :D
Chain + just dance
Tumblr media
Time:
Never gonna give you up by Rick astley
youtube
He would BODY this
And it’s so perfectly dad-like.
Like it’s exactly him
The rickroll, and the vibe of it. It’s 80s. That’s time.
Sky:
Price tag by Jessie j
youtube
I just think he’d look cute doing this one. I feel like the upbeat nature of the song fits him and he’d have fun :)
I don’t think he’d know a lot of songs tbh— he doesn’t give off a “yeah I listen to all genres” guy. I feel like his style is more hozier and Noah Kahan
Just slow folksy music—but he enjoys an early 2000s beat every now and then. Thus, price tag by Jessie j. It was the only one that looked fun to him that he wouldn’t feel super silly doing.
Twilight:
The urge to put old town road is SO strong…
But nah, he made the captain do Rock Lobster by the B52s with him.
youtube
He was indeed the lobster and he, indeed, did rock it.
It was a very close game, within a few hundred points. The rancher came out on top.
Wind:
LOLLIPOP BY MIKA
youtube
HE HAD SO MUCH FUN WITH THIS ONE
He almost punched the smith during this while he was walking by.
He sang it the rest of the day
Wild:
He made the traveler do Land of 1000 Dances by Wilson Pickett with him
youtube
They laughed the entire time
The traveler ended up tripping during it, which tripped the champion
They still kept laughing even on the ground
The champion won
Hyrule:
Superstition by Stevie wonder
youtube
Idk it just… it’s fun and bouncy and fits him to me
I think he’d have fun with this one.
The champion and the vet sat back laughing at him and cheering him on
Warriors:
On the floor by Jenifer Lopez, just cause I think it’d be funny
youtube
He’d also EAT
Also it was between this or Maneater, so whichever you like more. I won’t Link that one tho bc there’s already a ton here.
Four:
He split and the colors did Everybody (Backstreet’s Back) by the Backstreet Boys
youtube
They had SO much fun with this y’all
Just imagine it.
From left to right, Green, Vio, Red and Blue
Blue took it so seriously. Vio won tho.
Legend:
TikTok by Kesha
I just think he’d eat at it
youtube
That’s what most of these are—I just think they’d do well at it, or they’d have fun.
He got the max amount of stars on this.
Bonus!!! Ravio!:
Asereje (the ketchup song)
youtube
This is mainly inspired by art I saw by @sraksha of ravio dancing to the ketchup song. I saw it and I couldn’t get it out of my head to get another idea. It just had to be the one.
Also it’s just SO FUN I love this dance. Me and my cousin had so much fun doing this.
He made the vet do it with him
He obliged(very reluctantly)

Tumblr media
"Please welcome Corroded Coffin!" 
The static-filled mic radiated through the small space. The Hideout seemed to be more packed than usual, well, more than the five regular drunks that used to hang around, that is. Tuesday nights were always your favorite. Always hanging around the bar, twirling a cheap plastic straw in your watered-down drink until your favorite band took the stage. Corroded Coffin and a particular lead guitarist that always managed to catch your eye. 
Eddie Munson. Despite being a total asshole most of the time towards you as far back as you can remember, you always considered him sort of a friend for some reason. Suppose you could even call it that. To be honest, you didn't know what to call it; apart from the secret meetings in the forest a couple of times for some weed and an occasional smoke every summer, it was like you didn't even exist to one other. But despite the bickering and unintentional flirting, Eddie made his way under your skin. It was a rarity to see past his harsh exterior, always having his walls up around everyone else, but Eddie offered you glimpses every now and then. Each stolen glance and smartass remark had you falling more and more for the metalhead over the years.
"If you wanted an autograph, all you had to do was ask, sweetheart?" A voice jolted you from your thoughts when you noticed Eddie leaning against the bar beside you.
"You wish, Munson." His sly grin pierced through your tough facade as he chuckled under his breath.
"Well." He paused and slid closer to you; the scent of weed and post-concert musk intoxicated every last one of your senses as you tried your best to keep steady and focus on the drink in front of you. "Aren't you gonna tell me how badass I looked up there?" 
Eddie's tone was arrogant and obnoxious as usual, it should've annoyed you, but you found yourself turned on by it. Asshole, you thought to yourself. Eddie leaned in closer, barely grazing the side of your body, forcing you to direct your gaze toward him. His hair was slightly matted under his bandana, a clearly worn-out Metallica shirt clinging onto his chest and ripped somewhat in the middle, offering a view of his chest and the ink that adorned it. He knew exactly what he was doing. Damn him. Eddie's hand waving in front of you broke you out of your haze. 
"Still got that guitar, huh?" You were desperate to change the conversation to keep Eddie from seeing the effect he was having on you. But Eddie brushed it off.
"I overheard you talking with the bartender. I can give you a ride, you know?" You glimpsed towards the bartender, who gave you a shrug and smirk as he looked at Eddie. "I just gotta get my keys, and we can head out the back." He walked towards a door behind the stage to see you still standing by the bar. "Come on. Stop being a brat; let's go." You reluctantly sighed and nodded as you followed Eddie through the back area of the bar, pretending as if those words didn't just affect you. "So you wanna grab some coffee or something?"
"Now?" His question caught you off guard. "Why would you wanna get coffee with me?"
"I mean, we're friends, so it wouldn't be such a crazy idea.....and who knows, that doesn't sound too bad for a date either." Eddie chuckled to himself while keeping an eye to ensure you were still following him.
"Friends? That's a bit of a stretch." You snickered as Eddie stopped suddenly and turned towards you, clearly irritated with your tone.
"Oh, don't play games with me; you came to my show in this shit hole bar, and you're coming backstage. I don't know about you, but that sounds like you might have a thing for me, sweetheart." The words coming out of his mouth annoyed you more than you cared to admit. 
"I can't stand you, Munson." Your tone was stern as you stopped walking behind him in the narrow hallway, but the way Eddie was staring back at you instantly had you softening under his touch. Your cocky stance faltered long enough for him to step closer toward you making your back lean against the wall behind you. 
"You're lying to yourself. And you fucking know it." He moved closer, pressing his chest against yours, sliding his hand to grab your ass, and then moving down to your thighs. "I still remember what you felt like, tasted like. Even those sounds you used to make just for me." He whispered softly. You were pressed against the wall, the heat between your bodies filling the air between you, making it difficult to think straight as he consumed every single one of your senses. "I bet if I touch you right now, you'll soak my hand with how wet you are for me." You bit back a whimper, threatening to escape when you felt his hand slither around your waist, teasing at the waistband of your panties under your skirt while his lips ghosted over your neck. 
"Beg. For. It." He whispered in your ear through gritted teeth, lingering briefly between every word. The low tone of his voice and the warmth of his breath on your cool skin sent shivers through your body. You didn't say a word, your pride preventing you from begging for the thing you wanted most at that moment.
"Hm. A shame. You're so pretty when you're desperate for me." He continued as his hands withdrew from your body. A slight panic surged through you when you realized he was pulling away—your back arching slightly towards him out of pure instinct, practically burning for his touch again. Before you knew it, you gripped his shirt and drew him back towards you into a bruising kiss.
"Stop teasing and touch me already, Munson. Before I change my mind." The smirk that spread across his face was captivating; he really had no idea how beautiful he was. But there was no time to dwell on that now, not when his hands were already hiking your skirt above your hips and pulling your panties clean off in one move. 
Your hands tangled in his flowing curls when you felt his fingers skim over your folds, gathering up the slick. Slowly, he slipped two fingers into your cunt, making you groan at the stretch as his thumb worked your clit. Eddie began pumping in and out of you as you mewled and squirmed against him.
"You look so fucking beautiful like this. All fucked out on my fingers. Needy little slut. I can just imagine how good you'd look taking my cock so well." He groaned at the mere thought of it. 
Eddie's ring-adorned fingers wrapped around your neck, pressing harder with every thrust of his fingers. You could feel the imprints of each ring already making their mark on you, which only made your eyes nearly roll into the back of your head.
His fingers moved inside you as he dragged them along your walls until you were mewling, clamping down on him, showing just how close you were.
"Eddie..I feel like...I fuck." 
Eddie couldn't believe the sight before him, you of all people letting him touch you like this; it felt like a dream. A dream he never wanted to wake up from. Your clit throbbed, aching for attention as you began to gyrate your hips on him, desperate to feel more. He practically moaned in your ear at the feeling of your cunt pulsating around him, fluttering as he curled his fingers toward that tender spot inside you again and again. 
"Are you gonna cum, sweetheart?" You would give anything to wipe that cocky smirk right off his face, but the building pressure inside was too much to bear. All you could do was nod and whimper, desperate for him to give you the relief you so desperately needed.
"Fucking slut wants to cum all over my fingers, huh? Go ahead, baby. Cum. Cum for me." Your vision went blank as you felt yourself finally let go. Eddie wrapped his arm around your waist to hold you up as you leaned against him, moaning and body jerking from the force of your orgasm. Your juices sloppily leaked over him and covered your thighs and his forearm as you came down from your high. When you finally gathered the energy, you glanced up to see Eddie adoringly gazing back at you, chest heaving with the biggest smile on his face. 
"So, what now?" You breathed out as you adjusted your skirt, and Eddie readjusted but still kept you nearly pinned against the wall.
"Oh, I'm not letting you go just yet. You still owe me a drink."

Note: Shout out to imaginesbyhaley and ceasersaladslut for informing me Rooster drives a Bronco!! Updated to reflect this crucial information.
MINORS DNI, 18+
Tumblr media
Walking in like he owned the place, with a Hawaiian shirt, aviators, and that mustache… It might’ve been the fact that you were on your third vodka soda, but you just had to know who this joker was. 
Sidling up to him as he ordered at the bar, you remarked, “Hey, I think the 80’s called, they want their aesthetic back.”
“Ha-ha, that's hilarious,” he replied with a wry laugh. “But it was funnier the first four hundred times I heard it.”
“Damn. Well, it certainly does work for you.” The 80’s had contributed a lot of positive things to society; great music, pretty good movies, neon. And while this specific look hadn’t previously been among that list for you, this random bar stranger was changing that. Perhaps it was because his thin, low-cut tank top did little to hide his surprisingly muscular and tanned chest. 
The man turned towards you, looked you up and down, then smiled, apparently pleased with what he saw. “Is it working for you?”
Out of the corner of your eye, you saw your best friend, who’d been watching this interaction from down the bar, snort over their drink. You almost didn’t know what to say at this sudden change of direction. Well, maybe it wasn’t so sudden, you hadn’t been very discreet about ogling his pecs. 
“I… decline to answer that.”
But it did work on you, well enough for you to allow him to drive you and your friend home after your night out. This random guy’s Jeep was far cheaper than an Uber, which negated the equal amount of risk of getting into a stranger's car. 
After dropping your friend off first, he parked in front of your apartment. Pretending to fumble with your seat-belt, you waited for him to make the first move, but he remained quiet. Shit. 
“By the way, the answer is yes,” you started.
“Hm?”
“You asked if this look was working for me. It is.”
He smiled and nodded. “...I’ll keep that in mind. Have a good rest of your night.”
You couldn’t hide the shock on your face. “That’s it?”
“Well, you gotta leave ‘em wanting more.” And by god, did you want more. But apparently he was set on being a gentleman, not one to give it up on the first night. “I'll see you around, hopefully.”
~
You did see him around, sporadically, and which was when you finally learned his name was Bradley Bradshaw. Brad².
“Yeah, my parents were real funny people,” he had noted in response to your snicker. That was another clue you picked up on, his use of past tense when referring to his parents, but you’d let that remain a story for another time. You also learned he was a fighter pilot with a penchant for impromptu karaoke and a voice like butter. All of this was adding up to paint a picture of a strange but insanely intriguing man. 
You wanted to know everything about him, where he was coming from, where he was planning on going next. The two of you ended up spending many a night talking on the beach until the sun started to rise. 
But the most recent thing you learned about him was revealed during a rousing rendition of Lady Gaga’s “You and I”. When he wasn’t looking at the piano keys, Brad was looking directly at you over the frame of his lowered aviators, like he was… singing to you? Was this song supposed to be about you and him? You had to look away, hiding your face in your hands as you blushed furiously. 
After the way he shot you down on that first night, you’d come to accept that talking would be all the two of you would do. But apparently this had just been one hell of a slow burn. Two could play at that game. 
After his performance, you slung your purse over your shoulder as he approached you at the bar. 
“I think I’m gonna call it a night.”
“This early?”
“Yeah, I have to get up early tomorrow. Could I get a ride?”
~
“So… Lady Gaga,” you commented
“Hey, it’s a good bar song. People can clap along, sing along.”
“And that’s the only reason you chose it?”
“Well… it’s not the only reason.”
He didn’t elaborate further, only smiling. Trying to get a straight answer out of Bradley in regards to his feelings about anything was like pulling teeth. But at the same time, you weren’t about to spill your guts to him first. He hit on you first, then shot you down. Then he serenaded you and now… silence. When he pulled up in front of your apartment this time, your seatbelt gave you no trouble.
"Well, thanks for the ride." You didn’t wait for a response before you climbed out of the car. 
“That’s it?” he called after you. You rolled your eyes, walking around to the driver’s side, leaning on his open window. 
“I don’t know, is it? Are you ready for 'more', Lieutenant Bradshaw?”
“Yeah, I am.”
“Well, then the night is still young.” 
The second your apartment door closed, you walked him back towards the wall and kissed him. He tasted like beer and the mint gum he’d been chewing in the car. At least one of you had planned ahead for this. Was this his game all along, draw things out and then strike when you least expect it?
You couldn’t let your mind be clouded with thoughts like that as you slipped your hand under his shirt, running it over his skin to his muscular back. 
Barely breaking the kiss, he pulled his shirt over his head and tossed it to the side, his sunglasses clattering to the floor somewhere. 
"I gotta use the bathroom first." 
"Good idea." 
Quickly, you did your best five-minute shave job and freshened up. By the time you returned to the bedroom, Bradley was sprawled across your bed on his back, looking at the pictures and artwork on the walls. Trying your absolute hardest to look sexy, you crawled up between his legs, drawing his attention. As you unbuttoned his shorts, he lifted himself so you could remove them, along with his underwear. He wasn’t fully hard, probably because you spent a little too long in the bathroom, but you could tell this would be a satisfying night. 
"Like what you see?" 
"I'm just glad it's not a full-on 80's bush." 
"You're welcome," he laughed. 
Dicks had a very standard manual of operation. You suck the tip, lick it, stroke the shaft, don’t neglect the balls. The guy will usually say if they want it harder, slower, softer, faster. And of course, there’s one thing they all seem to love. Slowly, you worked down the length of his dick, taking as much of it into your mouth as possible, which was almost all of it. As your nose brushed against his pelvis, Bradley’s head fell back and he sighed into an, "Ohh, fuck." 
Encouraged by his reaction, you pulled back for a quick breath, then quickly deepthroated him again, and again, eventually getting into a rhythm. His hand gently pressed against the back of your head as his breathing became deeper, deep "Mmh"s rumbling from his throat. When your jaw started to hurt, you returned to what you’d been doing at the beginning, aided by nature’s alternative lubricator: saliva. 
"Stopstopstopstop,” Brad gasped after a few more minutes, gently pushing your head back. “Oh, fuck." 
"What, too much?" 
He didn’t respond for a minute, staring up at the ceiling as his breathing slowed. Finally he sat up. "Well, I don't wanna finish before we even start. Your turn, up here,” he stated, patting the bed next to him.
"I have a better idea, lay down again."  
It had been all you could think about while you were blowing him. The way his mouth hung open as he sighed and quietly swore, watching what you were doing. You knew exactly how he’d repay the favor. As soon as his back hit the bed, you swung your leg over him, straddling his face. 
“Oh. Got it.”
"Gotta put that porn-stache into action." 
Bradley chuckled. “You know what? I’ll take that. Lieutenant Porn-stache, reporting for duty. And it looks like it’ll be a smooth ride today,” he said, running two fingers through your already slicked folds. 
After whispering a silent prayer of please let him be good at this, you let him pull you down to his mouth, which began licking stripes over and around your clit. Every once in a while, he’d stop to gently suck on it, his tongue flicking over the bud repeatedly in the most obscene fashion, like he was drinking the god’s nectar. One of his hands ran up your leg, grabbing at your ass as you grinded against his tongue.
The visual of him between your legs was just as hot as you’d imagined it to be but suddenly, you wished you had been lying down for this as you struggled to stay upright, leaning forward against the wall for support. 
As the pleasure became more intense, you instinctively tensed, almost pulling away, but Bradley firmly held you in place as your orgasm hit. Crying out, you were practically whimpering as the man below you did not let up as wave after wave washed over you. 
As you fought to regain rational thinking, you barely noticed him lift you just enough to slip out from under you. Only when he returned from the bathroom, drying off his face with a towel, were you able to acknowledge him again. 
“Did you have a nice ride?”
“Oh, it was just lovely.” 
“Glad you enjoyed it.” He kissed you again, although now his mouth tasted overwhelmingly like you. “Ready for one more?”
He laid down next to you again and you realized his intention. “But I was just on top!” 
“And maybe that’s where I like you to be,” he coaxed, grinning at you.  
Looking into his dark eyes, you knew this argument was a lost cause because he looked so damn cute when he smiled like that, how could you say no? And again, your mind was getting ahead of itself, picturing what was about to happen. And it wasn’t a bad picture at all.
But your legs still felt shaky as you spread them, again straddling him, this time positioning yourself above his erection. Your hands resting on his broad chest, you slowly lowered yourself onto him, feeling his cock fill you up. 
Stutteringly, you began to ride him, attempting to gyrate like those pornstars do and clearly struggling. But Brad didn’t seem to mind, in fact, he helped. Gripping your hips, his hands guided your movements as he thrust upward against you. It was slow going, but the two of you were able to find your own rhythm and steadily picked up the pace. 
Soon, your own libido took over, urging you to ride him harder and faster and it no longer mattered if you looked like a pornstar because the way you were moving certainly made you moan like one. Briefly looking down, you saw Bradley’s eyes roaming over your body, but mainly fixing on that space between your legs. 
"Like what you see?" 
"Yeah. Yeah, I really do," he replied, looking up into your eyes. Somehow, that felt like something more than just his lust talking. If only he would use his words, but that would be an issue for some other time. Right now you were only fixated on how good this all felt. 
"Take a picture, it'll last longer." 
"Where's my phone?" 
Luckily, it was on the bed nearby so you didn't have to break your connection, only momentarily slowing down your movements. Holding his phone up by his face, he said, "It's on video, keep going."
You returned to your previous speed of bouncing on his dick, eliciting genuine moans from you. But you also knew you had to play up for the camera and give him something worth watching when he was gone. 
"Now I know why they call you Rooster," you said loudly in your most sultry voice. "Cuz you have the best cock around." 
You barely finished the sentence before bursting into laughter. 
“Goddamnit.” But Bradley was laughing too, shaking his head. “That was bad.”
“Yeah, okay, Lieutenant Porn-stache. You close?”
“I can be.”
Despite your enjoyment, you could feel yourself tiring. Brad turned off his phone, which had been recording the ceiling for the last minute or so that his attention slipped, and tossed it to the side.
"You gonna take a screenshot of that, print it out? Put it in your cockpit?" 
"Uh, no, because I need my blood to be going to my brain so I don't fly into a mountainside."
"Fair enough." 
"But I'll get plenty of use out of it, don't you worry. Come’ere."
You leaned forward, laying down on top of him. His arms wrapped around your body, the two of you kissing as you slowly moved against each other. The night’s events briefly replayed in your mind; the song, the jokes, the way it felt to be in his arms. As frustrating and enigmatic as he was, it felt like everything was falling into place, exactly where it should be. 
“Should I pull out?” he muttered against your lips. 
“No, I’m on birth control.”
“You sure?”
“Mhmm.”
His hands resting on your rear kept you in place as he picked up the pace. Pleasure began to form in your core again and soon you could tell he was close too, the feverish way he drilled himself into you. His lips left wet kisses down your neck as the two of you held each other as tightly as possible, hips grinding against each other relentlessly. You let your head fall into the mattress, panting and moaning against Bradley’s shoulder. Slick sweat started to coat your skin where it met with his. 
Finally, his hips slammed into yours just a few more times, hitting just the right spot as you both reached your peaks. Your gasping swears were accompanied by his stifled groans against your ear, his cock pulsing inside you as his movements slowed. 
The two of you stayed like that for a while, feeling the rising and falling of each other’s chests as your breath evened out. You could’ve fallen asleep like that, resting on his shoulder, if it weren’t for the uncomfortable way your legs were pulled up under you. When you finally raised your head, you saw your lovely lieutenant had indeed fallen asleep. 
“Are you serious?”
He blinked awake, turning towards you. “Did you say something?”
“What, you cum and immediately pass out?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he scoffed, “That doesn’t sound like me.”
“You don’t know what I’m talking about because you were fully unconscious.”
He shook his head, waving a dismissive hand in the air. “Nah, I don’t believe it. Fake news.”
“Fuck off.”
He was frustrating and enigmatic, but you couldn’t deny, he was exactly where he should be.

Apple of my eye (p.1)
Warnings: mention of alcohol and smoking.
Pairings: 80s!Nikki Sixx x Reader
Ps: this is my first time writing anything so it’s not the best !!
Tumblr media
It was 1983. I had backstage tickets and i was walking at the backstage of a motley crue concert venue, looking to meet the band. Until i was walking towards the dressing rooms, and i see that one door is left open, the door reads “Nikki Sixx”. I walk in nervously as i saw Nikki Sixx sitting on his leather couch, one leg up on the couch and the other on the ground, smoking a cigarette.
“Uhm, hey there?” Nikki slurs his words as he blows smoke out of his mouth.
“Hey.. sorry, i was just lookin’ around..” i say as i notice Nikki looking me up and down, i was wearing s tight leather dress and leather high heels, full black.
“It’s okay,” Nikki says smirking, taking another drag from his cigarette, reaching his hands holding the pack of cigarettes. “Want one?”.
“Mhm,” i nod, taking one out of the pack and grabbing a lighter from the table, breathing the smoke out of my mouth, damn that felt good.
“So, whats a young girl like you doing back here?” Nikki smirking
I flash him my backstage ticket. “Enjoy the show?” He says and i nod sweetly. “So are you gonna tell me your name or what?” Nikki blurts out.
“Y/n.” I say and Nikki nods, “Like that name, ya know you can sit right?” He says, motioning his hand towards the empty seat next to him on the couch. I sit down next to him, crossing my legs and leaning back.
Nikki places both his feet too the ground, leaning forward and lighting another cigarette. “So, beautiful. What do you do?” He says, looking back at me, grinning widely and placing a hand on my thigh. I wish i could wipe that grin off his face as it drives me insane.
“I play guitar.” I say firmly as i wipe his hand off my thigh. “Seriously? No way, play me something then.” He says, obviously not impressed and trying to prove a point.
“Fine, i will.” I say as i stand up, grabbing an electric guitar off a rack. “Whatcha wanna hear?”
“Free bird.” He says, crossing his arms and leaning back into the couch. obviously not thinking i could do it.
“Lynyrd Skynyrd? Okay.” I say, playing that song perfectly without any mistakes. As Nikki looks back with shock filled eyes.
“Wow, that was not bad, for a girl.” He states.
“What?” I say confused and kind of angrily. “Whats that supposed to mean?”
“Said what i said..” he says, taking a drag from his cigarette, smirking.
“Fine, I’ll do another one then, bring it.”
“Okay, play me Painkiller.” He says confidently.
“Mhm.” I say, playing that song perfectly once again, luckily i knew it. I finish the song, as i look back at Nikki.
“Okay okay, you can play guitar, you’ve proved your point..” Nikki says, leaning forward and grabbing a whiskey from the table, and starts to chug it.
I scoff as i place the guitar back on the rack. “So, is your boyfriend picking you up after this?” Nikki asks.
I chuckle. “Nah, I don’t have a man.” I say, taking a whiskey for myself out of the mini fridge and sitting down.
“Mm, okay.” Nikki smirks. “Whatcha smirking for?” I ask eagerly. “Nothin’.” He says, leaning back and biting his lips seductively. “How old are you?” He asks.
“22.” I say as i take a sip from my whiskey.
Nikki nods and sits closer to me as he smirks. “Well, i better go, Sixx.” I say standing up.
“Woah. Not so fast, I thought we could hang out some more?” Nikki says quickly.
I chuckle. “No can do, gotta get back. Plus, i think theres a shitload of groupies waiting for ya outside.” I smirk, grabbing my purse.
“Fuck them,” Nikki says, putting his cigarette out on his leather couch. That hurts to watch.
“Sorry, Sixx. Maybe I’ll catch ya later” I say walking towards the door, dropping a note with my phone number on it. “Oops, did i drop something?” I say as i walk out, purposely leaving the note there as Nikki smirks.
Nikki stands up, picking up the note and sliding it in his leather pant pocket and closing his door shut.

I've seen people say she has a habit of choosing the wrong singles for albums. Aside from Lover, i think she's done pretty well in that area? What are your thoughts?
i dont think she's bad? but i think her single choice did lead people to view her as a worse songwriter than she actually is. especially lead singles were consistently the most frivolous songs on the album between for red, 1989, reputation, and lover. like for the general public that will only hear the lead and maaaybe second single, unless a later single blows up, it's just. financially lucrative but not gaining widespread artistic respect.
which i think is a big reason why she's blown up once a) she put all her songs on streaming and b) tiktok came on the scene. like, you're adding structures to throw fan favorite songs into the general public's face-- stuff that wouldn't have worked on radio, like enchanted or all too well, or stuff that just never got it's day in the sun like don't blame me or cruel summer. like, folklore and red tv where also massive turning points, but giving the general public actual, physical evidence of how good her deep cuts where across all her albums goes a long way, too.
(specific album thoughts under the cut)
i think debut and fearless have excellent single selection. speak now is a tricky album to pick singles for and i think she did the best that she could but was also just kinda cursed for that album.
red is weirder-- wanegbt is a perfect lead single, but i think it set off a pattern of like, frivolous lead singles that didn't end up in a good place. but on its own, wanegbt is perfect and i wouldn't give it up. i think begin again is a fascinating second single and i'm not sure i would make the same choice but i understand why she did it. in general the country singles off the album are a bit weak, to me, but then i wasn't immersed in country radio in 2012/2013 so i don't know what was popping off in the market. BUT i do think i bet you think about me would make a good touch back song, which is one of many reasons why i think it should have made the album. or hell, even throw in all too well, once you know you're leaving the genre in a couple months. just a big swing with a lot of artistic merit and nothing to lose. also holy ground should've been a single.
1989 is where i think the pattern starts-- at least for the lead single, not the rest of them, it's hard to go wrong with picking a single for 1989. but in terms of what to start with, shake it off is an interesting choice. like, i think shake it off is a necessary part of the story she's telling on 1989, but it doesn't gel with the rest of the production as smoothly, so establishing it as like, "yeah, shake it off, we've all heard it" goes a long way to smoothing over any little mental speed bumps. that being said, it's not the best song on the album, and blank space and style are, i think, the more natural lead single choices-- blank space especially establishes the "i don't care about my reputation" element of shake it off, but from a more cynical place that could be fun to build off of. also it proves that she's serious about the album being 80s pop
reputation is tough one. there's no song on that album can't be clowned on to hell and back, and there's no way the next taylor swift single wouldn't have been clowned to hell and back after 2016. i guess you could make a big swing and go new year's day, which isn't as meme-able, at least, but that's not what taylor was going for and it would have been false advertising. so like, i don't know. maybe don't blame me or i did something bad instead of end game. but i do like the story lwymmd -> ready for it -> end game -> delicate tells, i think it's neat. and even though it kinda ruins that story, you gotta go getaway car for the closer. like i get that negotiations with bmr had likely broken down and she didnt want to make them a bunch more money, but getaway car -> cruel summer is a once in a career album handoff. sonically, story wise, just. it all clicks
every swiftie on earth knows their opinion on the lover singles but i think anyone can admit that this was the album that really set in stone her reputation of bad single selection.
folklore is just a fun thought exercise, like you basically get one single. definitely one music video, and the cardigan music video is general enough that you can kinda click it into another song, so you can go as far as to say you get this music video, find the song for it. cardigan is very understandable and obviously not a Bad Idea, but with the benefit of knowing the fan favorites, august is just, kinda perfect? i think seven would've also really worked. but also its an Album, not a single, and i don't think a song could've ruined that
evermore is similarly fascinating. i think willow is just kinda meandering and hard to grab onto as a song, but it lends itself well to that music video she made and the music video is a good overview of the full album. that being said, i would've gone no body no crime-- i think you can make a really engaging mv of it without having two people in the same room together, which flows with covid regulations pretty well. or tis the damn season, but i admit that personal bias clouding things (but like? it functions as a christmas song, so you could get airplay in december! and it sets up the main storyline of the album!). but similarly to folklore, hard to drive down public opinion of this album with one single.
midnights solidly breaks the curse, to me. like there were songs on this album that would've set it off on the wrong foot, and then anti hero was the perfect song on every level. as for other singles, they shouldn't have done that to ice spice's verse. that was so mean why did they do that just have it be the beat that's on the rest of the song it works so much better

My Retro-Cartoon Ramblings, Part 4
youtube
Going back to the Shuki Levy-themesong pool, there's Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors. We're mostly gonna talk concepts and broad strokes here, because I haven't been able to make it far into the series, cuz it just... uh... it's lucky it has that opener.
Tumblr media
So like he's gotta "Unite the Magic Route" to save the galaxy. Okay. Makes sense. They're cars driving through hyperspace tunnels taken over by biotech plants, being able to find the secret way through the system would let them defeat the Monster Mi-
Wait... magic "ROOT?
It's a root, a plant root, that's the McGuffin!?!
I mean, there's some potential here, it's got runaway biotech computers, it's got a trippy space-truckin' thing going, it's got a villain named "Saw Boss", but somehow its still the one thing neither cartoon nor ad should be...
Tumblr media
Just... meh. The theme song is literally all you need. Also, Toy Galaxy has a great breakdown of the whole Wheeled Warriors mess I couldn't do justice to here.
youtube
Spinning away from the toyetic, I am fascinated by "Heathcliff and the Catallac Cats" Aka "Cats and Company", the original themesong of which fits way better, but doesn't name-check Heathcliff so it got axed.
The show was 1/2 Heathcliff doing his remarkably aggressive schtick in his American comic strip-styled universe, and 1/2 the Catallac cats which had, well, its own style, best described as "Top Cat but Horny."
Tumblr media
Both sides' plots were structured around comedic hijinks around scams or schemes, and both had a theme of rough, street-smart cats with demanding, high-class girlfriends. Odd to have that happen twice in the same show. A lot more fisticuffs than you'd expect. A lot more.
Tumblr media
The whole thing feels like the animation studio going "FINE, we'll make the Heathcliff cartoon if we can make our horny cat mobsters with the transforming car." Also, the CCs are SUPER 80s. No other era could have spawned them.

jump into the heat
buck/eddie | rated: T | ~25k | WIP, done by Thursday
summary: post-705 spec fic. following yet another doomed day intended to be full of joy for the 118, buck and eddie try to figure out their lives, themselves, and each other. a bachelor party, a decision, a move, an awakening, a realization, an acceptance, and a happy ending
“It was just under 80s songs and– and the lady said it’d be good for us and not too hard to sing!”
“Uh, ‘sing’ is a strong word,” Hen mumbles. 
“You think you can do better?” Eddie teases.
Everyone turns to look at Hen expectantly, who just giggles to herself. “Yeah get at least one more drink in me and I’ll consider it.”
Calling her bluff, Buck gets up and heads to the bar to order a refill for everyone, because why not? The vibes all night have been good, including the harmless teasing of Buck and Eddie that resulted in them getting up on that stage in the first place. 
But as woman of honor, or best woman, or whatever title Hen had landed on in the end, it was absolutely her turn to embarrass herself a bit.
Stepping up to the crowded bar, Buck sees the worker who was setting up karaoke before is back tending the bar.
 “Hey! Crockett!” she exclaims, moving towards him.
“Actually, I think I might be Tubbs. Not sure though. Not gonna lie– wasn’t my idea,” Buck chuckles.
“Cute idea, regardless though.” She looks him up and down, hands on her hips. “Nice execution too, I’ve gotta say.”
Previously, he might have seen potential here. To flirt, or more. And his confidence and security in himself grows by recognizing he could still be attracted to her, and other women. But the part of his brain responsible for romance or whatever is occupied with his date for tomorrow, thinking about introducing Tommy to everyone in this new capacity, dancing with him, etc. 
That is to say, he’s kind of caught off guard by what seems like light flirting from someone else.
Until the bartender says, “Was it your partner’s idea? Adorable. Been together long?”
Then Buck is really caught off guard. 
“Uh… what?” he so eloquently asks, leaning further against the bar and clenching his hands on the edge.
His ears ringing means he misses the details of whatever she says next, something about how they sang to each other and something else about Miami and iconic queercoding, or something. 
He realizes this is the first time he and Eddie have been misconstrued as a couple since he actually could date dudes and it wasn’t some preposterous assumption. 
It’s by no means the first time overall though, and probably not the last, and he catches her tilting her head, looking concerned at his lack of a response. The last thing he wants is to be refused service because he got flustered for no good reason and seemed too drunk. So he rights himself and rallies.
“Sorry, yeah my friend Eddie– he chose the outfits. Anyway, that reminds me, I was sent to order all of us more drinks, so uh…” Buck trails off. 
She slowly nods, catching on and gives him an apologetic smile. “Sure. Same as you had before? I can check the bachelor party tab and bring those out to y’all.”
The crowd around the bar has only grown and it makes sense she’s trying to get out of this now awkward situation as quickly as possible. Buck nods and slowly backs away to let her do her job. 
He’s still trying to shake the interaction as he looks down at his hands fidgeting together and walks back in the direction of his friends. His first thought is to feel like a jerk for assuming the bartender was flirting with him when in reality she had assumed he was… well whatever she had assumed. His second thought is: what exactly did he feel… almost shameful about her assuming?
After his slip to Maddie about dating Tommy, Buck made the active decision to… announce this information when the time felt right with Eddie. And whenever the time felt right with other important people in his life, he was more than ready to… announce to them too. Somebody ashamed of themselves wouldn’t announce it like that, would they? 
But. What is the announcement in question? Hey I kissed someone once and hung out with them twice and I like them, isn’t something he felt the need to announce to his friends so hugely before when it was with women. Obviously it looks a little different, but it’s not like he changed as a person. 
And yet, how is he able to reconcile not having changed, but suddenly feeling as though he’s newly lying by hiding a huge part of himself?

So here are some prompts from songs that I've got ideas around, feel free to request blurbs for whoever:)
----------
1. -Honestly I’m better as your boy, I’d be kinda shitty as your man. Let’s go back to only being friends.
2. -I don’t wanna fall in love, -No?, -No.

4. Where’d all the time go?
5. -Time to get out, I don’t want you around.
6. -I couldn’t see you the way you saw me.
7. -I tried my best to be worth all your while, -You just gotta let me go.
8. -Loving you was a hazard, so I got my heart a helmet.
9. -You like the pretty girl, with the pretty voice?
10. -She might let you stay, but just for the night.
11. -Oh I’m down on my hands and knees, begging you please, baby.
12. -You’re making me crazy.
13. -I’m feeling so tired, really falling apart.
14. -It just doesn’t make sense to me, why you’d stick right next to me, wherever I go.
15. -I feel the way you’re looking at me through my peripherals.
16. -Next thing I know she was feeling on me.
17. -I just hope you don’t wanna leave me…
18. -Only I belong with you and only you darling.
19. -I think of her so much it drives me crazy.
20. - I hope you find peace for yourself, -New girlfriend ain’t gonna fill the void.
21. -I went to hell and back, just to find peace.
22. -I can’t describe what I’m feeling.
23. -I don’t care how long it takes, as long as I’m with you I’ve got a smile on my face.
24. -Save your tears
25. -It will be okay, as long as you’re here with me.
26. -I wish I could live through every memory again.
27. -So, can I call you tonight?
28.-She looks just like a dream.
29. It’s just like seeing her for the first time, again.
30. -Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise.
31. -I’d rather lose somebody than use somebody.
32. -It’s you and me, always forever.
33. -...is the girl that I wanna kiss.
34. -You know I get so forgetful looking in her eyes.
35. -There’s nothing to keep you from falling in love.
36. -Cause all of the small things that you do, are what reminds me why I fell for you.
37. -Don’t forget to kiss me.
38. -I might need you or I’ll break.
39. -I act like I don’t care
40. -I bet you wish that I was still right there.
41. -I think I like you best when you’re just with me and no one else.
42. -No one can save me but you.
43. -You never felt this way?
44. -I’d never dreamed that I’d love someone like you.
45. -Everytime you go away, you take a piece of me with you.
46. -I can feel your body move.
47. -I want you here with me, from tonight until the end of time.
48. -You’re just too good to be true, I can’t take my eyes off of you.
49. -You’d be like heaven to touch.
50. -Please let me know that it’s real.
51. -I wanna feel you in my arms again.

57. -It feels like you don’t care
58. -No, not a single tear
59. -Tell me what you heard
60. -A pretty face with some cute lips.
61. -So kiss me once and kiss me twice, and kiss me once again.
62. -It’s been a long time.
63. -When you kiss me, heaven sighs.
64. -When you press me to your heart, oh I’m in a world apart.
65. -Give your heart and soul to me.
66. -I’m in heaven.
67. -I want my arms around you.
68. -It’s nice to have you back, where you belong.
69. -The band is playing, -One of our old favorite songs.
70. -Leave your worries on the doorstep my dear.
71. -Life can be sweet.
72. -Oh I’m on the sunny side of the street.
73. Stars shining bright above you.
74. -Dream a little dream of me.
75. -Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me.
76. -Promise to me, you’ll dream.
77. -We may never, never meet again.
78. -Oh when you’re smiling, the whole world smiles with you.
79. When I saw you last night and got that old feeling.
80. -When you caught my eye, my heart stood still.
81. -Give me a kiss to build a dream on.
82. -Oh, give me your lips just for a moment.
83. -Wherever you’re going, I’m going the same way.
84. -We have all the time in the world.
85. -Give me your kisses, I’ll give you my heart.
86. -Give me the right to call you all mine.
87. -Though we’re apart, you’re part of me still.
88. -You came, -You saw?, -Oh you conquered me.
89. -Fantastic? Oh that’s you.
90. -I still get jealous.
91. -All my wildest dreams come true, -When I’m near you?
92. -Love makes me treat you the way that I do.
93. -You’re afraid each thing I do, -Is just some evil scheme?
94. -Why can’t I free your doubtful mind, and melt your cold cold heart?
95. -Pardon the smile on my face dear.
96. -Your lips are as warm and sweet as wine.
97. -I’ll keep you safe.
98. -For I can’t help falling in love with you.
99. -My heart is yours.
100. Bound to falling in love.
101. -I knew a girl just like you once.
102. -I'll always look out for you.
103. -I won't let you down.
104. -One day it'll all make sense.
105. -For you, I'd bleed myself dry.
106. -Baby, you’re the best.
107. -I haven’t seen you in a long time.
108. -I gave it all for a fantasy.
109. -I'll love you better if you let me.
110. -I'll love you forever.
111. -My heart is a broken mess
112. -Are you honest?
113. -I’ll take you just the way you are.
114. -You’ll always have my unspoken passion.
115. -I hope no one catch us, -But I kinda hope they catch us
116. -Baby you’re all mine.
117. -Maybe it couldn’t work out in the end.
118. -I know you want me.
119. -I’ve been getting mixed signals.
120. -I’m just trying to get closure.
121. -I know she’s a loser.
122. -Is it wrong?, -Is it right?
123. -Nobody does it like you do.
124. -You’ve begun to feel like home.
125. -I’ll be right here.
126. -I've been trying to get you out the friend zone.
127. -Baby, am I your little secret?

EUROVISION RANT 2024
Last night was the night of creativity and culture that all (probably only like 20%) of Europe adores. Eurovision is one of the times when I, who am a very chill and non-judgemental person, will barf out my thoughts and write my commentary (cos I'm better than Graham Norton). STRAP IN MOTHERFUCKERS.....
We started this wonderful evening with a performance of Hooked On a Feeling which I gotta say is a banger but what's with that Burger King background? He was decent, to say the least but more or less it was just an old dude who stood on the stage singing which is just quite meh. Loved the flag parade, Swedish music is awesome. 
PERFORMANCE 1 : SWEDEN- UNFORGETTABLE- MARCUS & MARTINUS This is a damn catchy song but how are you supposed to tell those twins apart?! I loved the sort of club/ravey vibes it gave. The staging with all the flashing lights was pretty awesome. (ngl those twins were kinda cute) THE MEN IN BLACK DANCERS KILLED ME. It gave Matrix vibes and I'm here for it. The costumes reminded me of F1 drivers but I love it. Rank no. 10
PERFORMANCE 2: UKRAINE- ALYONA ALYONA & JERRY HEIL- TERESA  & MARIA Honestly, one of my favorites. Feminism in a good way. The taller woman gave off such Boudicca vibes and I love that, both women were so gorgeous and had amazing voices put together. I did say the rock reminded me of The Lion King but I really liked that. The costumes were also so aghhhh the Rey-Boudicca and the knight were such a great combo and the song was really catchy. Rank no.4
PERFORMANCE 3: GERMANY- ALWAYS ON THE RUN- ISAAK So. Much. Fire. Ya know, I'm actually disappointed by the fact that it wasn't in German. It's a solid song. It was quite rag-n-bone man style but I appreciate that. I do have to say it wasn't something ridiculously special but it's a nice song and a guy who looks like he gives a good hug. Rank no.14
PERFORMANCE 4: LUXEMBOURG- FIGHTER- TALI Firstly, I love her hair. It's so long and so pretty and she has got an insane voice. I'm not a fan of the song, though. It's too repetitive, extremely forgettable, and just mid song. It just wasn't anything special, it was a quite nice Middle Eastern vibe tho. Rank no. 23
PERFORMANCE 5: He got disqualified so I will not be ranking this.
PERFORMANCE 6: ISRAEL- HURRICANE- EDEN GOLAN What in the voodoo contortionist shit was that position at the beginning? Her dress tho, why she looking like she's just escaped Ghostface. Oh and look more shirtless men.  This isn't the worst song it's just not  the best. Another mid one like literally all of them this year. The dance was giving ring a ring a roses and the floor screens just were not it. She has an amazing voice, I won't lie that she doesn't but it's just not my vibe. Rank no. 17
PERFORMANCE 7:  LITHUANIA- LUKTELK- SILVESTER BELT This is one of my favourites. It's a catchy European bop and I love itttttt. The tracksuit looks well warm. I adore his jewelry its so nice. I literally started cossak dancing it was so catchy. It's a real vibe and I really appreciate it. The short people had me in stitches it was hilarious. It gave off severe jamboree vibe sbut I love that cos it's vibrant and bright and just pretty fucking awesome. Rank no.7 
PERFORMANCE 8: SPAIN- NEBULOSSA- ZORRA I am ashamed to say that I thought this was gonna be high ranking in my books but no. I am a changed person. This is a family show. I get that there's one like this every year but damn this was fucking scary. The men. In fucking thong arsed things. Nicht gut. The song was pretty good tho so and the 80s vibes rlly sold it to me. On the basis of the song not the staging, it was great. And, I mean, making out with a dancer on stage in front of your partner is very eurovision. Rank no. 13
PERFORMANCE 9: ESTONIA- 5MIINUST x PUULUUP-  (NENDEST) NARKOOTIKUMIDEST EI TEA ME (KÜLL) MIDAGI I swear this is just a group of dads who've gone screw it we're doing eurovision and rocked up with 90s rap up their sleeve and traditional instruments. I think its such a vibe and I would kill to be them when I grow up. The suits were great, idk what was up with the slits but for some reason it felt like what a k-pop group would wear to the met gala. Literally the cha cha slide. Rank no.9
PERFORMANCE 10: IRELAND- BAMBIE THUG- DOOMSDAY BLUES Fucking incredible song. Harry Potter mentioneddddd. Their make up is on-point. The song is on point. The outfit is on point. Everything abt it is so wonderfully perfect. The nails are a bit odd but its a vibe. The witches circle was incredible, the screaming bit was too. so witchy, so emo, so awesome. I loved the chilled out bit, in contrast to the rest it was perfect and probably needed. The reduction of clothing towards the end was pretty funny, my brother stared a bit too much but oh well it was great. Rank no. 1
PERFORMANCE 11:  LATVIA- DONS- HOLLOW What in the blue man x Gru crap is this? Honestly I didn't really register this one so I don't have a huge opinion on it. Also gives of Rag-n-Bone Man vibes even if it is  a typical eurovision song. Altogether its a meh song, not a fan, and the fit is just downright strange. Rank no.24 
PERFORMANCE 12: GREECE- MARINA SATTI- ZARI I am confused by this one. She has impeccable vocal control. I am extremely admiring that. The song was just a bit of a rubbish mishmash. There was too many elements. I did quite like that and the live stream addition watching on tv was quite nice. I'm confused by the outfit as well, everything just seems all over the place. It's giving Doja Cat but European. I liked the dance moves and it was pretty darn funny but just a bit mental. Rank no. 18
PERFORMANCE 13: UNITED KINGDOM- OLLY ALEXANDER- DIZZY As the youtube comments said, this gives severe gay lockerroom corn vibes. Just what the friggity frack. The crotch protection while dry humping each other?! It's just a bit odd. I did like the song. It's super catchy and very annoying. That guy can sing but maybe he needs to reevaluate where his loyalties lie in that. The staging was so confusing like for the whole thing I didn't know what was up or down or left or right, it was just mental. First proper European vibe English vibe that I've got. Very odd but it's sorta loveable. Rank no.19
HONOURABLE MENTION: LISA WOODRUFF - My whole family were so confused by this but the song was so funny for no reason such a vibe. It was genuinely better than some of the artists we've had this year. Mental but awesome.
PERFORMANCE 14: NORWAY- GÅTE- ULVEHAM I really enjoyed this one. The vocals are so ethereal and the 90s grunge mixed with Norwegian instrumental influences match perfectly. Stunning lady with an amazing band with her. The song just flowed ad the staging was all sea-witchy and I loved it. Great song, great staging, awesome euovision track. Rank no. 3
PERFORMANCE 15: ITALY- ANGELINA MANGO- LA NOIA The see through ish glittery tights were quite interesting I have to say. Her outfit was breathtaking. Her voice like many of these artists is incredible but not my vibe I have to admit. Its catchy I know it's someones cup of tea but it ain't mine. Overall, it's not too bad like I love the whole Mediterranean vibe but its just samey to the rest. Rank no.21
PERFORMANCE 16: SERBIA- TEYA DORA- RAMONDA The witchy vibes don't really match the song. I think it's really sweet. It's not super up there but it's a tune and I enjoyed listening to it. Here hair is so lovely as well. It really comes across as a bit of a plea for help but it's a lovely message and I always really enjoy Serbia's input because they're always shockingly good. I would love that dress as well if someone wants to go snag it for me. Rank no.8 
PERFORMANCE 17: FINLAND- WINDOWS95MAN- NO RULES! This is the one I've been waiting to yap about. Bloody hell this one was a ride. I'm gonna start with the fits and staging: it was so random, I am so here for it. The egg was just perfect for the randomness and running about the stage was awesomeeeee. The shorts descending from the heavens and then bursting into flames was a real highlight, so iconic. The guy dressed in all denim was such a vibe as well. I actually feel sorry for him cos the other guy stole the spotlight a bit but that was a true eurovision act. I feel I can always rely on inland to deliver something crazy and they smashed it out the park yet again. Rank no. 6
PERFORMANCE 18: PORTUGAL- IOLANDA-  GRITO The staging gave a beige mom house in the US, the makeup gave Coachella. I really thought it was quite a vibe, maybe a bit dentist office wedding but who cares shes a cracking voice and the dancers went down as 'the beekeepers in my house'. The light was giving Loreen's panini press again but it's not that bad and is a solid mid range one. Rank no.16
PERFORMANCE 19: ARMENIA- LADANIVA- JAKO This one HIT man. It was just a vibe, the like trumpets and the woman's mental ness. The patterns almost sent me into a seizure but it's eurovision, you're gonna have a migrane the next morning. She was so cool in her dress and I just loved it, the band was cool as well and jumping around the stage while singing complicated stuff like that is a talent so kudos to the singer. Rank no.11
PERFORMANCE 20: CYPRUS- SILIA KAPSIS- LIAR Yet another same samey song. It just wasn't giving me enough to get a notable score. This is no criticism to her herself but it just got too repetitive this year. Far too many scantily clad men dancing around young women. Particularly with this one, she's only 17 and she looks so much older and I was just worrying for her and praying that the dutch dude wasn't towards her. Rank no.22
PERFORMANCE 21: SWITZERLAND- NEMO- THE CODE One of my favourites for the evening. They looked like nemo as well it was so adorable. The talent to stay on that pendulum wheel thing is so freaking awesome. They cooked hard. Their vocals are so freaking stunning as well just an incredible, catchy one. The drum beat gave breakcore and it's just an ear-scratcher. It's just such a snazzy song. Rank no. 4
PERFORMANCE 22: SLOVENIA- RAIVEN- VERONIKA What in the water-coated body suit? The fit was questionable and so was the dance moves. Yet another situation where the contestant made out with the dancer. The light up tits and crotch were weird as well. Like highlighting the bits you shouldn't want to show off. Oh welllllll. IT was an interesting song, not particularly special but pretty typical eurovision. The eye makeup was on point also. Rank no.15
PERFORMANCE 23: CROATIA- BABY LASAGNE- RIM TIM TAGI DIM The pirate vibe meets My Chemical Romance were real. One of my favourites of the night. The cat pictures sold it to me heavily. I loved the fit it was such a vibe. I had it goin through my head all night. The meowing absolutely killed me. Such a banger a true sea shanty turned rock is the recipie to please my ears. Rank no.2
PERFORMANCE 24: GEORGIA- NUTSA BUZALADZE- FIREFIGHTER Yet another woman singing warbly surrounded by muscular men in interesting clothing. Her dance moves were extremely strange and probably not appropriate for the kids watching, particularly in that short of a dress. The song wasn't the worst though ( take that back probably one of my least favourites). The dance was just a bit odd. Rank no.20
PERFORMANCE 25: FRANCE- SLIMANE- MON AMOUR It was so boring. Like I was falling asleep. It needed spice. It was giving shit drake that sings falsetto that's too high for him. It was too repetitive, too boring. It didn't appeal to me one bit. Probably my least favourite. Rank no.25
PERFORMANCE 26: AUSTRIA- KALEEN- WE WILL RAVE Now, I'm not usually a fa of this vibe of music but kaleen executed it so freaking perfectly, its a n earworm that I hate but its so funny. Very Europop vibe to it, giving me jamboree vibes yet again. She reminds me of Taylor Swift and her little daughter was so sweet. This has gone down pretty well I think. Rank no.12
Now, I've finished my part and I didn't watch the after bits cos I was too busy falling asleep from slimane. Compared to last year, completely underwhelming but its decent. Some hhits hit, others missed the board completely. Sorry about even worse grammar and spelling than last year but that's all folks, see you in 2025.

warnings : none, really! sfw, some kissing, reader and Eddie are oblivious and VERY in love. also typos probably. thats all!
this fic is spoiler free !!
Tumblr media
you don't know how you had managed to get here. 
never in your high school life would you have imagined that you would be at prom, dancing the night away in the arms of someone who you actually liked. you never thought that you would be asked to prom by anyone in the first place. this wasn't like family reunions in which you danced awkwardly with your second cousin in the living room, no; this was different. sort of like the movies, although the lighting isn't as pretty. 
but the thing that is the most unbelievable of it all was that you are in the arms of your very handsome metalhead friend, the Eddie Munson. 
you rest your head on his broad shoulder and sigh wistfully, hoping you wouldn't get any makeup on his black suit. you smile as he jitters at your sudden action. his strong arms are hooked around your waist and you hum quietly as he fiddles with the fabric of your velvety dress. you can feel his heartbeat, fast and loud, like a little bird caged between his ribs. you wonder if he was nervous, as nervous as you were. 
the whole night you had been shaking. when he showed up at your house in his beat up van you practically fainted when you saw him. you had never seen him look so…formal. you laughed at how stiffly he stood and he told you to knock it off while suppressing a grin.
you swore that the smile on your face when your mother took a picture of the two of you could've split your face in half. 
the ride to the school was awkward, filled with nervous silences that resulted in the two of you trying to speak at the time. conversations with the brown haired boy had never really been awkward like this before, but something in the air made it different. 
after a while, Eddie finally caved and began to blast Metallica, making sure his windows were rolled down so everyone could hear it, which you were glad about - that way he couldn't hear how loud your heart was beating. his van smelled like weed (per usual) and he drove just a few miles over the speed limit, but you didn't mind. you were too busy fixing your hair in the rear-view mirror to care. 
once the two of you finally got there, Eddie immediately started to complain about the music selection. 
"this is all just schmaltzy pop garbage," he had stated as he folded his arms, his exasperation and disappointment abundantly clear.
"well, what did you expect?" you quirked a brow at him, "Black Sabbath?" 
"yes!" Eddie had exclaimed and you laughed. 
but once girls on film came on over the crackly speaker, you couldn't help but drag Eddie out onto the dance floor. you had never danced in front of so many people before, but being with him made the anxiety of doing such a thing melt away. 
his dancing was atrocious and you were sure that yours was too, but that made it all the more fun. the two of you screamed the lyrics to your favorite tunes and booed when songs that were less than pleasing started to play. he spun you under his arm so many times that you began to think that you may get sick. he later challenged you to a competition of who could eat the most brownies at the snack table. 
he won. 
and now you were here, resting gently in his embrace as take my breath away by Berlin plays. the sweet melody echoes throughout the gymnasium of Hawkins High and many teenage couples sway to its beat. you close your eyes and grab one of Eddie's hands, a bold move on your part, intertwining your delicate fingers with his own. 
"I don't like this song," Eddie murmurs into your ear. your heart speeds up involuntarily as you feel his hot breath on your neck. 
"I think it's cute," you hum softly, and Eddie groans. "you're just cynical."
"you know me," Eddie drawls. "it's not any fun if it isn't rock." 
you shake your head and nuzzle your face into the crook of his neck. you drown in the smell of his cologne (which is definitely new and surely something he wore just for this occasion) and you never want this moment to end. 
he pulls back suddenly, forcing you to look up at him. you stare into his deep brown eyes, his pupils so wide that you can almost see your reflection in them. you watch as his gaze moves from your own eyes down to your cherry colored lips. you flush darkly and look away. 
Eddie leans down slightly but you don't notice until you turn your head back to face him and your nose brushes against his. his grip on you tightens slightly and he pulls you further into him. you can feel his warm breath fan across your face and he opens his mouth to say something, but no words come out. he blinks rapidly and averts his gaze from yours. 
"sorry," he mumbles, clearly nervous, "it's just like- you're so- you're really fucking pretty. like it's kind of unreal." 
your eyes widen and your face burns even more than it did before. you're sure that your cheeks were probably glowing red in the hazey blue light of the gymnasium. 
he turns his head to look at you again and you can't manage to get any words to form in your brain or in your throat. you're too stunned to even say thank you. 
Eddie's brows furrow and he presses the back of his hand against your cheek. the cool metal of his rings is cold against your skin, but you welcome it. 
"jesus, you're burning," he says, worry lacing his words, "you wanna go outside?" 
all you do is nod as he takes your hand and guides you out of the gymnasium, through the school hallways and finally out into the parking lot. the two of you perch yourselves on the curb and stare up into the black sky, stars dotting its inky depths. 
the two of you don't say anything to each other for a long while, feeling almost too scared to do so. you fidget with the beaded friendship bracelet that Eddie had given you so long ago (he's wearing his matching one as well) and you bite the skin off of your lips. you shiver in the cold night air and Eddie takes notice of this, slowly scooting over to you and pressing his arm to yours. you look up at him, dazed, and he smiles sheepishly. 
"I'm, uh, sorry if I made you uncomfortable or anything," the words tumble from his mouth suddenly, "when we were dancing, I mean. I didn't mean to- to make things weird." 
you stare at him in shock. you couldn't believe what he was saying to you. 
"you didn't make things weird," you assure firmly, now realizing you were making it sound like you liked it too much (which you did, but you would never let him know that), "it was…it was nice."
you want to say something more than just nice, but you're too frightened, feeling you'll make the conversation even more awkward than it already was. 
weird was the last word you would use to explain how you and Eddie were previous to this moment. you loved it; the feeling of his arms around you, your hands on his chest and both of your eyes locked on each other. everyone else in the room had disappeared; leaving just you and him. he felt like the only thing that mattered. he was warm and safe and he felt like home, a home you never wanted to part from. 
"okay good because I thought I had like- done something to make it weird," Eddie says, laughing forcefully. you muster a smile, but it's to no avail. the moment is over. 
Eddie notices your change in demeanor and frowns, now worried that he's messed something else up. he presses himself against you a little more. 
"thank you," you murmur suddenly. he looks at you with confusion in his eyes. 
"for what?" he asks. you turn your gaze to him, your eyes sparkling in the silver moonlight. his heart flutters. 
"for saying that I'm pretty," you admit bashfully, tucking a stray piece of hair behind your ear. 
Eddie blinks. he's surprised that you're thanking him for such a simple compliment. he didn't realize how much it had meant to you until now.
"well shit, it's true," he shrugs, acting as if it's nothing at all, "I'll say it to you every day if that's what you'd like." 
Eddie's words make your heart leap in your chest.
"I wouldn't be opposed to that," you whisper, trying your best to stay cool and collected. 
you jitter as his hand meets your cheek, bringing your face to his own. he looks sincerely into your eyes. 
"yeah?" he whispers back. you unsuccessfully stifle a smile.
his fingers are slightly rough, his avid guitar playing making them calloused and hard, but you lean into his touch regardless. 
"yeah," you nod. 
he swipes his thumb across the skin of your cheek and looks down at nothing. he clears his throat and looks back up at you, eyes flitting from your own to your lips. 
"can I, uh, can I tell you something?" he mumbles unsurely. you nod profusely and he laughs breathily. 
"uh, well, the thing is- uhm," his head spins as he tries to get the words out, but he has to. he doesn't know what he'll do if he doesn't. he can't go on any further without telling you how he feels.
"I sort of have a massive crush on you." 
there's a long silence and the noise of the music leaking out from the gym becomes even more distant than it was before. 
his words hit you like a whirlwind, or more like a truck driving straight into you. you freeze, your heart dropping into your stomach as you clutch your dress with trembling hands. you stare at him owlishly, disbelief covering your face. 
you haven't answered his statement and it's been ten whole seconds. Eddie regrets saying anything at all. 
"shit. uh. yeah okay I know it's dumb but like jesus christ you're just so pretty and you- you like overwhelm me? not in a bad way but your so- god I just had to tell you otherwise I'd like, fuckin' combust or something-" the words leave the brown haired boy tactlessly. he doesn't know what he's saying anymore. 
"look, I know we've been friends for so long-" 
"Eddie," you say. 
"you probably don't feel the same way because like, why would you-" 
"Eddie," you say again. 
"but seeing you all beautiful and shit tonight made it impossible not to say anything and it's-" 
"Eddie!!" you exclaim, grabbing him by the shoulders. he finally shuts up, looking down at you in surprise. he doesn't think he's ever heard you speak that loudly before. 
your mouth opens and then closes, but you stop yourself from being doubtful. you know that you have to take the step and let go. there's no room for shyness now, not with him.
"I have a massive crush on you too," you say, repeating what he had told you moments ago. 
now it's Eddie's turn to be stunned into silence. he splutters, hands going every which way. he doesn't believe what he's hearing. that you, the prettiest girl in Hawkins, the prettiest girl he's ever seen, could possibly feel the same way about him as he does about you. 
"are you being serious right now?" he asks you, eyebrows raised in apprehension. 
"yes," your answer is resolute and sure. Eddie swallows hard. 
"you like me?" he squints and you giggle at his befuddled state. 
"yes, I like you," you assure him gently. 
"...shit. okay. wow," he laughs breathlessly, "I didn't think you'd actually, uh, y'know-" 
"feel the same?" you finish his sentence. he nods dreamily. 
the two of you sit and stare at each other for a few long moments. you then watch as Eddie situates himself to face you better, leaning in to be close to your face once again. 
"can I, uh, can I kiss you?" he asks you gently, softly. you rarely hear this tone of voice from him, but when you do, it's heaven. 
"I don't know, can you?" you tease, touching your nose to his. he rolls his eyes and scoffs. 
"you shut up," he says and connects his lips with yours. 
his lips are rough compared to your softer ones, but you don't mind. the kiss is shy but intimate, the both of you recognizing that this should've happened much sooner. Eddie's hands wander all over your frame, from your face to your neck down to your waist and back. he makes certain to be gentle, not wanting to scare you away. 
he pulls away for a moment to breathe but wastes no time in kissing you once again, and soon he's pulling you onto his lap. you shudder against him and he sighs into your mouth. he feels like a dream. he's passionate yet careful, and you can feel the neediness in how his lips move against yours. you cup his face with your hands and lean your forehead against his own.
you pull back and desperately try to catch your breath. you look down at Eddie and he's got that familiar grin on his face, a classic Eddie expression. your lipstick is smeared all over his mouth and you giggle at how silly and handsome he looks. 
"shit," he says, swearing being the only thing he can manage to do in the moment, "you're so fucking pretty."
