My mom was complaining about Beyonce making a country album as revenge or smth and not bc she actually likes country music and she said she doesn't like Texas Hold Em and I was just like 😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️ idk man I'm having fun

#i dont love the jolene cover :/ #but she was talking about a bunch of drama and controversy like it was common knowledge #and as a fan of country music / casual observer of beyonce / person who does not listen to the radio / fairly engaged with pop culture #i hadnt heard any of it 😭 on either side #and personally .. I listened to the album without outside influence #and mostly liked it !! #ans im VERY picky and critical about country music #i wouldn't say its Classic Country like 90s george strait #but its not Bad New Country like bro country #its definitely pop/country but ?? thats ok! its fun! im having fun idk ! 😭

-

The first week without Bradley was a bit hard, even if he woke her up with morning kisses and breakfast for the two of them, she missed his presence inside the apartment. Which was so silly, she didn’t want to be the clingy type of girlfriend who couldn’t handle being apart from her boyfriend for too long, plus she’s been without him for two months before. She could handle a few hours.

On the bright side, her ankle was already showing progress albeit small. She still couldn’t put weight on it but it wasn’t pulsating with pain every second she moved to adjust herself either on the bed or on the couch. Jolene also got used to it quite quickly, almost as if this was already her apartment before.

Beatrice did try to distract herself the best she could, with Netflix or video games but that wasn’t working. That’s when she grabbed her drawing supplies from her suitcase and started doodling on the couch. She just allowed her creativity to go wild, she had no plans in mind really.

Since she couldn’t sit cross legged she lied on her stomach to draw while she was on his bed with Netflix running in the background. She made sure to open her drawing book wide open so no pencil shavings or anything of the sort would land on his sheets. Sometimes she’d send Rooster a text when she knew it was his lunchtime, she didn’t want to bother him otherwise, just to let him know she was fine and what she was doing.

He always responded quickly, mentioning that the best part of his day was when she talked to him. Beatrice blushed so hard when she saw it she thought his bed would catch on fire, covering her face with both hands and squealing into her palms like a teenager in love. 

She told him he just wanted to make her blush and he replied with a ‘absolutely ;)’ like the smooth man he was. Beatrice’s smiles never faltered even when he was away, which helped in dealing with his absence before he returned to his apartment.

Speaking of his apartment, she had this very odd fear of messing his things up with her own stuff. Even if he said there was no problem, she didn’t want to take too much of his space, she didn’t want to bother him about it. While he did give her a drawer and a side of the closet for her to use, which smelled so good by the way, she tried to keep her things apart from his so he wouldn’t grab anything by mistake.

Just for safety, she thought, just so his things will remain in their usual spots. While opening his closet to grab one of her jackets since she got cold, she couldn’t help but run her eyes over his shirts. Several Hawaiian shirts, so many she lost count halfway, but she couldn’t help the smile on her face as she thumbed through them, nor could she help herself when she brought the fabric to her nose.

She was violently reminded of the time she smelled the pillow he sat against on the first time he visited, how guilty she felt and how she thought that’d be the only time she’d be able to smell his cologne. If only she knew.

She hummed happily, closing her eyes with the colorful fabric up her nose and a smile on her lips. Every single one of his shirts smelled like his cologne and fabric softener, with the cologne being the most predominant smell of all, much to her joy. 

With a sigh she let the shirts drop back into the closet and shut the door, blushing severely while keeping her grin. She however looked back at his desk where her phone currently was, a loud ping calling her attention.

She wondered if it was Evelyn giving her more information on the Karen woman and the Kappa team, since the woman came in growling and acting like a lunatic saying the game was rigged and that her daughter’s team should’ve won. She wished she was there to see it, because Evelyn obliterated that woman without even raising her voice and when the woman tried to act all high and mighty, Evelyn’s father stepped in and told her to back off.

Evelyn said that it was the first time she wasn’t mad her father intervened in her affairs…interestingly enough, after Beatrice asked if she went out with Hangman Evelyn stopped responding. Maybe that’s her finally replying to her question! Beatrice winced while making her way over to the desk, then hopped back to Bradley’s bed to check her phone.

“Hey! I don’t think you know me but I was the photographer for your aunt Martha’s wedding? When I sent her the pictures she told me to separate a few and send it to you! That’s how I found your Instagram, do you have an email account I can send them to?”

Beatrice blinks while reading the message, then shakes her head as she types back a positive response and the email, thanking the woman and making a mental note of thanking her aunt too. The email arrived within seconds and Beatrice scooted closer to the headboard so she could stretch her legs and get comfortable while opening the pictures.

She let out a soft gasp when the pictures loaded for her to see, there were only three of them but it was enough for her to feel her heart vibrating with happiness. Indeed they were only pictures of her and Bradley at the times they didn’t even know there was a camera there. The first picture was when she walked out of the bridesmaid chairs and greeted Brad out of the chairs, her flower crown in her hand and his own pulling out a tiny leaf out of her skin.

The second one was after he just played the piano to his heart’s content and she had leaped towards him as soon as he was done, with him picking her up and the two looking at each other like there was no one else around them.

The final picture was of the two dancing, more specifically of Beatrice laughing and Bradley holding her by the waist as Signed,Sealed,Delivered played in the background, his mouth smiling while kissing her cheek. She didn’t know if her aunt asked the photographer to take the pictures because they all seemed like…they were the main focus instead of the whole ceremony. She was sure there were pictures of her aunt and uncle together, but these look very specific.

Beatrice bit her lower lip, flipping through the images over and over again, her cheeks hurting from smiling so much. Now looking from an outside view, it was so clear to see how much happier she looked and how much Bradley looked at her with pure fondness in his eyes.

Beatrice slid down further on the bed, holding the phone close to her face as she looked back at the dancing picture. The focus was on them, everything and everyone else was blurry, the fairy lights above their heads made them look like they were glowing and they looked so happy to be there.

It also came to her attention that…they had no pictures of them together. Which wasn’t something she considered until now, she didn’t really feel like it was a bad thing? They were having too much fun together to bother taking pictures…unless Brad wanted to. But he’d tell her, right? He would, he’s very open and honest about their relationship. Would he be upset if she..shared this with others?

She should check.

She knew he was still on break, so she had to be quick before he was back to work.

Bea (13:35)

Roos!I need to ask you something! It’s really quick, I promise.

Roos (13:35)

Of course gorgeous, what is it? There’s nothing wrong right?

Bea (13:37)

No,no, I’m fine. It’s just the photographer at my aunt’s wedding took some pictures of us and…I wanted to show them to you and ask if it’s okay if I posted it? On IG i mean.

img.1 img.2 img.3

She chews on her lower lip nervously as she waits for him to reply, she knows he’d seen it because the gray bubble popped up then disappeared as soon as she sent them. What if he’s not ready? It could happen right? 

Roos (13:40)

You don’t even have to ask me! Of course you can! God, you look so good all the time it’s unfair. I saved the pictures on my phone too :) so we can both post it.

Bea (13:40)

Really? 

Roos (13:43)

Angel, baby, sweetest girl on this planet, yes of course. I also have a new phone wallpaper ;) that I can look wherever I miss you and remember how gorgeous you are.

Bea (13:43)

!!! You are a sweet talker…but I’m glad to hear that :3 I’ll leave you to it now, okay? I just wanted to make sure.

Roos (13:44)

It’s okay babe, you know I don’t mind hearing from you. I’ll see you later okay? I love you.

Bea (13:44)

I love you too! See you later!

She sighs, dropping the phone to her chest as she smiles in relief. She shouldn’t be as excited as she was about posting some pictures, right? But it wasn’t just the pictures, it was…them, their relationship, their time together that she cherished so much and now she could share it to the whole world to see.

Biting her lower lip again, she wasted no time in opening Instagram and posting the pictures and tagging him of course. She wondered what sort of caption would work, typing and erasing several times before finally writing ‘A very fun time, with the right person <3’ and blushing hard as she posted them.

She couldn’t help but look at the pictures, then at the caption and just smile so hard her cheeks hurt. It was real, it was so real she couldn’t even believe it. It was like now it hit her that the two were together, they loved each other and that she could have a man like Rooster in her life.

Beatrice squealed against her palms, tapping her good foot on the bed excitedly like Thumper from Bambi, giggling to herself. This was like a real life rom com and she was the main character and honestly she was very okay with that.

It doesn’t take long for people to comment and like the picture, her smile only broadening when she’s notified about a picture she was tagged into as well. Immediately she opens it to check and she almost melts into the mattress at the caption he wrote

‘That smile could put the sun to shame. <3’

She immediately covered her face with the pillow and screamed in delight, her face burning so much she could feel the warmth seeping through the stuffing. Beatrice felt her eyes watering and she couldn’t help the tears of joy that came out of her eyes, wetting the white pillow cover. 

Beatrice sniffled quietly when she pulled the pillow away, wiping her eyes with her knuckles and a teary smile, laughing shakily at herself, “It’s so silly, why am I crying?” she asks herself, trying to contain her tears of joy without much success Jolene rushes into the room with her sock monkey, looking at her owner with wide brown eyes and her ears up, agitated from hearing Beatrice’s soft sniffles.

“Jojo, it’s okay,” the brunette tries to tell the pittie, who just pushes her sock monkey onto the bed with her snout and holds herself upright with her front paws, whining quietly “It’s okay baby,I’m okay.” Beatrice pushes herself to a sitting position, cupping Jolene’s big head with her palms, pressing her nose to the pink snout, “I’m very happy, you know? I am so happy.”

Jolene licks Beatrice’s face,wiping some tears away in the process with her tail wagging vigorously, her back legs tip tapping on the bedroom floor as Beatrice chuckled, kissing the dog’s head after wiping her face the best she could, “Now let me get out of bed so I can wash my face, you slobbery machine.” she says lovingly, giving Jolene her sock monkey back and patting the pittie’s butt so she could move out of the way.

While she is in the bathroom washing her face, she hears the constant notification sounds coming from her phone in the back pocket of her sweat pants. She wipes her face and pulls out her phone to check who else commented on it, furrowing her eyebrows and tilting her head at a strange name that showed up on the list of likes, a mix of numbers and letters…she shrugs, it was probably a bot, it had no picture and no bio so she just reported and blocked it to be done with.

But she stared down at the screen for a while longer, frowning at the blocked account’s page, something…was off but she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was that made her so confused. She printed the screen for safety and then sent it to the girls' group chat, maybe it was someone else’s account they didn’t know of.

Maybe someone from college? Who knows, it’s hard to figure people out nowadays.

Hopefully not from High School, dear God, she hoped no one from back then followed her now. The last thing she heard about her high school was how her class representative wanted to make a ten years old reunion but was still organizing everything and that was months ago, ever since then it was radio silence.

It took her many years to work through the trauma of her time in school and while it was still within the backs of her mind, it’s not like it controlled her like it did before.  And while it’s been over ten years she didn’t really have a connection with anyone from her school, not like she had with the girls from college and so on, she didn’t have a reason to go back there and see everyone.

Beatrice decides she spent enough time in his bedroom and grabs her drawing supplies to go to the living room. She tries to hop and limp her way over, which works quite well, before settling herself on the couch with a sigh after grabbing her gel ice pack from the kitchen. She couldn’t lie, her body was clearly missing it’s usual workout activities, especially her morning yoga - which it’s surprising Bradley never saw her do - and her dance classes. 

It’s strange to not do that for a whole week, nor get ready to work…which she really missed. She missed going to the Hard Deck and seeing everyone. She wondered if Rooster didn’t miss it either, after all he did go there even before he met her. She hoped…she wasn’t holding him back from having fun with his friends because of her sprained ankle, she didn’t want him to hold himself back from going out.

She’d ask him when he came back.

-

“Babe!” he calls as soon as he enters his apartment, already toeing out his boots  “I’m back and I brought take out!” He looks around the living room to see Jolene lying on his couch chewing her sock monkey but no Beatrice in sight.

He frowns, reaching down to greet Jolene with a pet then dropping the take out on his kitchen table before he goes check his bedroom, seeing that Beatrice is so focused on doing something in her drawing book she probably hadn’t heard him. Her back is to the door, so Rooster bites his lower lip with a smile, slowly walking behind her and crawling onto the bed, his head hovering above her shoulder to check what she was drawing.

It looked like a picture of a deer in the middle of the forest, she was still coloring it, but it already looks beautiful. “Hey.” he calls on her ear softly, making Beatrice yelp in surprise and fall back on his chest with her eyes wide when he wraps his arms around her waist. He couldn’t help but laugh at her startled self, kissing her cheek apologetically, “I’m sorry baby, you didn’t answer me when I got in so I got worried. I couldn’t help myself.”

Beatrice narrows her eyes playfully at him, but then she smiles, tilting her head to kiss his lips, “I forgive you.” she says sweetly, pecking him one last time, “Because you are cute.”

“I like that reason.” he coos, moving from behind her to sit right next to her on the edge of the bed, smiling when he noticed how her feet still hovered a few centimeters above the floor unlike his. “How’s your ankle?”

She hums, lifting the bandaged ankle a bit higher, “It’s doing better, I can limp a bit. So that’s always good.” she puts her drawing supplies aside so her lap is free of anything that could fall to the ground, her hands squeezed between her thighs, “How was your day?”

Rooster chuckles, leaning back on his hands as he sighs, “Fine, the usual.” he gives her a shrug “But I brought us take out.”

“Really?”

“From the Indian place you like so much,” he grins, enjoying her gleeful gasp “So I think we should get ready to eat because I am starving.” he pushes himself off the bed, fixing the black tee on his body before turning to Beatrice, “C’mere.”

“Don’t you think I should try and walk to the kitchen–” he picks her up before she could finish the sentence, hugging his neck and laughing as he carries her bridal style.

“No.” he chuckles, carrying her all the way to the kitchen and sitting her down on a chair, kissing the top of her head, “I would be a terrible boyfriend if I allowed that.” he says, opening his cabinets to grab plates as Beatrice pulled out the take out from the plastic bags, putting everything in the center before he sat down.

She ran her eyes over the black tee he wore with admiration, fighting back her little smile when he fixed the sleeve over his left bicep since it rolled up when he moved. She bit her lower lip with a smile before he could notice it, moving her gaze back to her plate as she opened the styrofoam containers for the two of them. “Ohh, Roos, these look so good.”

“I know, I stayed in line for a while to get it.” he says, cracking the soda cans open, “I wanted to surprise you.”

“Consider me pleasantly surprised.” 

“Well, I wanted to treat you.” he says, making her arch her eyebrow in question, “You know, just a dinner between the two of us.”

Beatrice leans on her palm with a little smile, “I don’t mind, I really like it.” she made another mental note to repay him in some way as soon as she got better. 

After Rooster turned on his playlist they finally started having dinner, chatting about nothing and everything at all, much like they always did. He said that when he posted the picture on Instagram he could hear Nat’s scream from his office and he was bombarded with texts from both her and Halo. Beatrice chuckles at his exasperated look when he said that Nat ‘hugged him so hard she probably popped his spine’ while rubbing his back to prove a point.

She had seen Halo and Nat’s comments on her picture and both sounded just as excited as Rooster said they’d be. She didn’t mind it, the other pilots’ comments were so sweet and supportive she couldn’t help but smile whenever she read them. She felt very welcome in this world she had no experience with.

Of course she worked at the Hard Deck and she knew some of the Navy personnel, but she wasn’t part of that whole universe before. She sometimes feared she was boring or lame compared to the others, one more reason why she feared getting closer to Rooster before…if she thought enough she could make a whole list as to why she felt so nervous about talking to him.

Was she glad he didn’t seem to mind? Yes, absolutely. Nevermind if sometimes she still got those feelings, but she never mentioned it to him. She’d rather not to, that’s something she got to work within herself, especially now that they were…well, official official. Something about sharing your relationship to the world really did something to her.

After dinner and after taking Jolene outside to go potty, Rooster said he was going to take a bath. Beatrice just smiled and nodded from the couch, watching him pull his black tee off, following the line of muscle ripple when he moved with interest.

He paused, then looked back over his shoulder, “I said I’m going to have a bath, babe.”

Beatrice smiled more, “I know babe, you just said that.”

“...okay let me rephrase that.” he balls the shirt in one hand, “We are going to have a bath together, right now.” 

“...Roos, what about the doctor's orders?”

“I’m not saying anything will happen.” he shrugs innocently, then groans, tossing his head back, “Bea, babe, my sweet angel, it’s just so we can spend time together, I haven’t touched you in…so long..” he says, 

 “Brad, you literally sleep behind me, touching my butt.”

“It’s not the same thing,plus soaking your ankle is helping it heal even faster.”

Considering his self restraint these past days, and it was a lot of self restraint, she considered his words with a tilt of her head. He also had a point on the soaking part, it was helping her ankle,”....well…okay.” She knew he was going to carry her to the bathroom so she didn’t even bother standing up, chuckling when he picked up bridal style and rushed to his bathroom.

Setting her on his counter as the bathtub filled, pouring some bath salts along the way as well, he turned back to check on her ankle “How’s it?” he asks while lifting and snapping the velcro open.

“Not bad, it hurts a little but it’s much less than before.” the swelling also went down a bit more, the redness of the bruise was now fading into her skin color instead. “I’ll be okay.” she smiles.

“Course you will,” he replies, cupping her chin to press a kiss to her lips, “You are strong as hell, you’ll get back in no time…now!” he shuts off the water when the bathtub is filled and there’s steam surrounding the two “It’s bathtime.”

She assures him she doesn’t need help undressing, but rolls her eyes when he does it anyway, telling her to lean on him if she needs to. He tells her to step in first because it’d definitely help her, not because he wanted to watch her ass as she turned around, “Roos,” she says softly, making him snap his gaze up as she holds his hand to get inside.

“Sorry, babe.” he isn’t sorry at all. “Give me some space, okay?”

Beatrice blinks, but pushes herself forward once she sits inside the bathtub, the warm water covering  up her shoulders, fluttering her eyes closed as she relaxes humming quietly to herself. She hears him move behind her, the quiet ‘ah that’s hot’ coming out of his mouth as the water splashes around them, his legs sliding on either side of her torso as he sits down behind her. “Okay, c’mere.”

She looks over her shoulder with her eyes squinted, the water reaches his chest and the middle of his biceps, the little smile on his face making her heart soar, “Where do I go, exactly?”

Rooster blinks, looking down at himself, “Well, here,” he says, pointing to his chest “You know, you lean back and relax?”  she squints her eyes even more, not believing him, “I can wash you.”

“Uh-huh and there are no ulterior motives, right?”

“Nope.”

“None?”

“Not a single one.” he says, but he drops his eyes down the expanse of her back for a second, “Promise.” Beatrice purses her lips with a smile but moves backward so her back presses against his chest, sighing softly. He grins, dropping his lips to the top of her head while his arms wrap around her shoulders, “Comfortable?”

“So far.” she says with her eyes closed, bringing her good knee up so it peeks from under the water. The warmth was working on her ankle, her eyebrows crinkled at a dull throb but it was much better than during the first times she did this, the inside of his thigh touching the outside of hers, “Are you?”

“I am very comfortable.” he says softly, brushing her hair to the side so he could press his lips on the slope of her shoulder, smiling against her skin, “See? Isn’t this nice?”

Beatrice smiles, opening her eyes to look back at him, “It is.” she whispers, “It’s very nice.” she was surprised at how he was controlling himself, just genuinely keeping her close so they’d relax. His playlist was still going, Private Eyes by Hall & Oates echoing through his apartment, Rooster humming along quietly behind her as he held her close, his legs coming up from under the water just like hers. 

She then purses her lips after a while, “Roos,” he pulls her closer to his chest, making a sound of interest, “...can I ask you something?” he mutters an ‘always’ against the skin of her neck, “Did you want to go to the Hard Deck?” Rooster stops his kissing to pull his head up, furrowing his eyebrows, “I mean…with the others?”

Bradley gives her a confused look with a smile on his lips, “What do you mean?”

“I mean…I’m not holding you from meeting them, right? Because I know you guys always meet at the Hard Deck after work.” she murmurs, “And, you guys are friends and if you want to go out and meet them that’s fine by me! Really! And I–”

He holds up a hand, dripping with water and shakes his head, “Okay, let’s pause for a second.” she lowers her eyebrows while looking up at him, “You aren’t preventing anything, Bea. I want to be here with you. They all understand why I’m not going…plus,” he smiles, cupping her chin to tilt her head up and kiss the tip of her nose, “It’s just not the same without you there.”

Beatrice’s cheeks turn red, but she’s still frowning, “I just don’t want to prevent you from meeting them all.”

“Bea,I see them almost every day.” he says with a shrug, “Plus if I ever dared to step on the bar without you I’m sure Penny would kick me out so I could stay here.” he smiles, tucking a strand of wet hair behind her ear, “I want to be here, babe. That’s why I suggested you stay.”

The brunette looks away diminutively, a smile slowly forming over her lips as she takes in his words. “I’m sorry, that was pretty dumb of me to think.”

“It wasn’t dumb,” he tells her quickly, “You aren’t dumb, you just worry.” Bradley leans back on the tub so she could lie even more against his chest, drawing random patterns on the wet skin of her upper back, “Okay?”

Beatrice flushes even more, pressing her cheek to his wet chest with her smile widening, “...okay.” she says, leaning up to kiss his lips, chuckling when he tries to deepen it, his hands sliding down towards her waist “Brad,” she lifts her sprained ankle for his eyes to see “Remember?”

He huffs, dropping his forehead on her shoulder only to sigh loudly, “Right, gotta heal up first.” she giggles, watching him grab one of the body washes she brought from home, glaring at the label in a way it made her laugh even more. “Let me distract myself before I just forget how to act.”

COWBOY CARTERRRRR ★𐚁𓃗

this album is literally . everything omg like i've literally been going crazy over this album and it's not even been a week yet and i apologise for the babbling but i need to get some things off my chest or i will actually lose it so !!!! gonna yap about every single track now !!!!!! (some coherent thoughts, and some not so coherent thoughts) : 

★★★★★

AMERIICAN REQUIREM - (im obsessed with all of the stylisation ii in the album titles bc its act ii) this song is basically a thesis statement for the whooooole album the main lyrical part is : 'used to say i spoke "too country" / and the rejection came, said / "i wasn't country enough" / said i wouldn't saddle up, but / if that ain't country, tell me what is? ' and obviously it goes without saying that the vocals on this track are PERFECT and angelic because, this is beyoncé she could never underdeliver. ive heard so many people say that the layering reminds them of bohemian rhapsody and I AGREEEE

after ameriican requirem, this section of the next fourish tracks reminded me of self titled (2014) in the sense that it explores the different aspects of beyoncé as a person (being a black woman, career, motherhood, self love etc) LOOKA DER LOOKA DER LALALALALALALALALALALAAAAAAAAA. THIS INTRO IS EVERYTHING TO ME ITS SO CINEMATIC AND BIG AND ★BEYONCÉ★

BLACKBIIRD - second song on here is a cover of blackbird by the beatles, featuring tanner adell, brittney spencer, tiera kennedy, and reyna roberts (all up and coming black country artists!!!!). i didn't know this until like, the day the album dropped and i was looking into it but blackbird was written by paul mccartney about black women in the 60s experiencing struggles with the american civil rights movement. and in england 'bird' is kinda slang for girl, so 'black bird' = 'black girl'. and that song was intended to bring hope, such a perfect track for this album , specially with the features beyoncé included 🤞🏽

16 CARRIAGES - my favourite out of the 2 pre release singles. its about her entering the music industry at 15 and the struggles due to that and growing up so fast, whenever this comes on i will NEVER EVER SKIP ITS TOOOOO GOOOD

PROTECTOR  - i love how this is featuring rumi🥹 whenever beyonce talks about motherhood, or writes a song for her kids (like here, blue, bigger, brown skin girl etc) it always gets me tearing up on first listen. first of all i LOVEEEE a voice memo intro, and this whole lullaby is just <333333

MY ROSE - ive seen a lot of people saying that they dont like how this album is so long, but me personally, i love that there are so many tracks, even short ones like this that add depth or a vibe. also i love any song that says lalalalalalalalaaaa so that got me

SMOKE HOUR ★ WILLIE NELSON - IM OBSESSED W THIS INTERLUUUDEEEEEE the feel of changing the channel on a radio is so cool and adds a really fun atmosphere and really works well for themes here

TEXAS HOLD ‘EM - everyone hates this song BUT I DONTTTTT its a real life boogie and a real life hoe down frfr

BODYGUARD - this ones so fun and lighthearted, aside from the parts where shes like ‘i dont like the way shes looking at you 😒😒😒 someone better hold me back’ and that line leads so well into the next tracks:

DOLLY P / JOLENE - HAAHAHAHAHAHA THE DOLLY P INTERLUDE TOOK ME OUTTT WITH THE BECKY WITH THE GOOD HAIR REFERENCE😭 and the lyric changes on jolene with her warning becky instead of begging,, iktr !!!!!!! and ‘you a bird go on and sing your song jolene’ 😩 i really like that beyonce brought in dolly because shes like. THE country star. and its kinda wild that people are still dissing beyoncé for releasing country music and saying she doesn’t belong when the literal dolly parton is advocating for her

DAUGHTER - one of my faves on here, it feels so cinematic and i will always appreciate an i killed my husband country song. the whole vibe of this song is really sinister im obsessed and the visuals are already there in my mind like,, ‘your body laid out on these filthy floors / your bloodstains on my custom coutures’, ‘so let's travel to white chapels and sing hymns /

hold rosaries, and sing in stained glass symphonies’ , ‘i sashayed my dress / did my best impression of a damsel in distress’ , etc etc etc. i would literally quote this entire song if i could i think its lyrically the best one. my favourite part is the refrain about her father and choir boys and the titanic its so real. AND VOCALLLSSS HELLOOOO????? SHE JUST . CASUALLY SINGS CARO MIO BEN??????? oh beyoncé the woman you are whoooo is doing it like you

SPAGHETTI - as soon as i saw this title i knew this song was gonna be fun like first of all, the intro talking about genres being restricting, and then the song going straight into that instrumental???????? AND SHES RAPPING ?????????????? THANOS ????????? CUNTY COUNTRY PETTY !!!!!!!!!! YALL BEEN PLAYED BY THE PLAGARISTIC WHEWWWW NO SAUCE NO SAUCE

ALLIGATOR TEARS - the jump from spaghetti to this was so violent 😩 i had to calm myself down so fast on first listen LMAOOOO. ok so from what i can tell i think this song is saying that she’ll do anything for x (idk who this is to, maybe jay z?) and x doesn’t need any fake tears to get her to do things for them bc she’ll do anything for them regardless. ‘you say change religion 🕺🏽

now i spend sundays with you’

SMOKE HOUR II / JUST FOR FUN- oh my god i so badly want KNTRY radio to be real😭 just for fun feels so nostalgic to me for some reason, and so does ii most wanted tbh but i’ll get to that. i think that willie jones’ voice works SO well with beyoncés, they both sing so softly on here and its like the type of ballad you’d sing around a campfire all happy and sleepy

II MOST WANTED - as someone who never watched hannah montana as a kid, i still really appreciate this song, i know a few songs from that song even though i never watched it so miley’s voice reminds me of my childhood soo much and this song omg🥹🥹🥹🥹 the harmonies and the lyrics and the friendship <333333 the electric guitar specifically stands out to me it reminds me of something but i can’t quite put my finger on it?

LEVII’S JEANS - I DIDNT KNOW THAT POST MALONE COULD SING LIKE THAT ?????? WHAT ? i literally live in england but whenever this song comes on suddenly im line dancing and i am wearing my metaphorical cowboy hat ,,.,,, denim 🕺🏽on 💃🏽denim🕺🏽on denim🕺🏽on 💃🏽denim  AND HE SAID YOURE MY RENESSAINCE !!!!!!!! RENEIGH IS BACK IN EMPLOYMENT

FLAMENCO - i NEED a longer version of this song desperately 😭 right about NOW😔 its another nostalgic sounding one

WE JERKIN !!!!!!!!!!! WE TWEKING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM A SUCKER FOR SAMPLES AND SHE SAMPLES 2 SONGS HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND SHE SAID SWEAT OUT THE SHEETS LIKE DRUNK IN LOVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMEN - feelin like im at church again, and it repeats parts of american requirem 😩 i love a tie in omg this album is already such a classic AOTY PLEASE

★★★★★

overall, i think that this is simply the greatest thing to ever grace my ears. i dont think ive ever seen an album with so much thought, care and research put into it, and beyoncé is truly an albums artist and i really really really admire the work she puts into this. since i was really young i really loved her and watching her music videos (watching the self titled music videos at 8 years old is such a core memory for me LOLLL) so every album release is so special to me, and i feel so well fed w this album and i am so intrigued about what’s coming for act iii!!!!!! sorry again for all this talking, this was the cut down version of my thoughts ☠️

overall faves as of right now : sweet honey buckiin, daughter, ya ya, tyrant

cowboy carter album review:

this album has so much context i know i’m missing so i’m not going to talk too much about the themes or lyrical backgrounds and just focus on the music. beyonce knows she wrong for not adding liner notes to this album but i digress. also the ratings are on how much i like the song NOT on how good they are because artistically every song is pretty perfect. such high quality and artistry, no shock there.

american requiem: 6/10

love the beyonce choir. makes me wanna go join a civil rights march idk lmao. probably will only listen to this one on a full album listen tho.

blackbird: 8/10

i wish we got more of the other singers singing the main lines rather than mostly just the background, but i still like it. reminds me of butterfly fly away from the hannah montana movie. not my favorite but i’ll come back when i wanna feel like someone’s singing me a sweet lullaby or when i’m maladaptive daydreaming that i’m sitting around a campfire on a beach in an old southern town singing tunes.

16 carriages: 10/10

iiiiiiiii love this song. so much. since it’s been released, i’ve been listening to it non stop. it’s so beautiful and perfect. one of my absolute favorites. what a single. it’s perfect.

protector: 7/10

the acutal lullaby song. so pretty. so soft. so sweet. i like it.

my rose: 4/10

what rose are we talking about beyonce lmao no but anyway this is too short like i hate mini songs pls. but eh i’m not feeling it anyway.

smoke hour willie nelson: n/a

texas hold em: 10/10

so fun, so catchy, the rhythm in this one is so infectious. “this beat is vivacious”. i love every melody in this song. the slowdown is insaneeee. her ability to blend genres in a way that’s actually interesting and unique issss ugh amazing love her.

bodyguard: 10/10

as soon as the song started, i texted my best friend telling her i loved it. i knew from the first beat. this song is so perfect. i could listen to this forever and never get sick of it. i loooooove it. shoulda been a single imo

dolly p: 10/10

okay ik this is just an interlude but the jolene instrumental sounds sooo beautiful in this and the “jolene” sample thing i love it. plus dolly. this isnt even a song but i want more of it.

jolene: 8/10

okay idk how i feel about this cover. i dont like the lyrical changes. it does feel more beyonce than the original but i liked how dolly never put down or shamed jolene. i like the vulnerability and softness in the original. i dont like the harsher approach in this one. HOWEVER if this song was softer like the interlude OR the choir at the end for the whole song, it’d be a 10/10 for me. i’m actually so mad the choir part was so short bc i loooove it.

daughter: 7/10

i’d relisten but probably not as often. it’s beautiful but idk it just doesnt catch me. the opera at the end is beautiful. and the song is so nice. but it’s just not my favorite.

spaghetti: 7/10

controversial opinion but i dont usually like rapyonce. i like beyonce singing on a rap beat but rapping idk. makes me cringe. the more i listen tho, the more i like it. again i do love how she blends genres in this so flawlessly. the ending is my favorite part of the song, so nice also i love the beat.

alligator tears: 6/10

i don’t care to listen to this one again tbh. doesn’t really catch my attention. i like the outro tho. idk y she always makes the outros outros and not just the song.

smoke hour ii: n/a

just for fun: 6/10

will relisten but not my favorite.

most wanted: 10/10

never thought i’d get a miley cyrus/beyonce collab but im so grateful i’m obsessssseedddd. i looooove it. it’s so beautiful. so romantic. perfect in my eyes.

levii’s jeans: 10/10

i hate post malone and i’m mad beyonce chose to work w him rather than idk a black female artist. you let this nigga sing a whole verse but barely let the other black country female singers on blackbird get in a line??? idgi. but goddamit i love the song. so romantic in a kind of sensual way with the country twang. one of my favorites. i cant even be too mad. he ate his part up.

flamenco: 8/10

i love the flamenco in this lol. it’s too short tho ugh i hate mini songsss. idk it’s somehow not my favorite. flamenco and beyonce sounds perfect but this song didnt really catch me as much as id like it to. still like it tho and will relisten.

the linda martell show: n/a

ya ya: 9/10

love the 60s black southern rocker vibes in this. the instrumental is so insane i’m obsessed. so fun, so dancey. you cant not dance to this. and her vocals remind me so much of tina turner.

oh louisiana: 7/10

i actually like this even tho it’s just like an interlude. not much to say about it tho.

desert eagle: 9/10

that BASS?!?! absolutely thank u. too goddamn short!!! like i wish there was more to it. more everything.

riiverdance: 9/10

that banjo(?) lick is so addictive. another fun dancey song. again, love the genre bending. i like this, will relisten. i kept waiting for like a climax tho? idk. i wish there was one.

ii hands ii heaven: 6/10

not my favorite, probably wont relisten to very often.

tyrant: 9/10

another genre bender. i really like it. the chorus is so good and addictive. “i dont like to sit up in the saddle boy i got this” YEA!

sweet honey buckiin: 7/10

genre bender lmao i’m gettin repetitive i know. i just get what she means now by saying this isnt a country album, it’s a beyonce album. not my favorite but i like it some. will relisten from time to time.

amen: 8/10

love a beyonce choir.

overall even tho every song wasnt a hit for me, the songs i love, i love so much that it makes this album a 10/10 for me. they’re so interesting and unique but still melodic and catchy and i loooove it.

[gracejones]

Cowboy Carter thoughts so far:

- [ ] First song is totally sly and the family stone inspired

- [ ] Blackbird cover 😑 beyonce can’t make me love the Beatles unfortunately - I also can’t believe she wasted my girl Brittney Spencer on this omg BOO!! I can’t believe she put all them girls on the Beatles cover GROSS DISGUSTING DONT DO IT AGAIN

- [ ] 16 carriages is fine. NEUTRAL about it.

- [ ] Protector has farming euphemisms in it, love it

- [ ] Interludes are cute

- [ ] Texas Hold Em the best song on the album up this point

- [ ] Bodyguard has a 60s pop/yacht rock feel too it - fleet wood mac adjacent

- [ ] The run from Texas hold em to daughter is fantastic

- [ ] I was not floored by the Jolene cover but better than the Blackbird cover

- [ ] Daughter is INCREDIBLE - so much texture in that song yum yum yum

- [ ] Putting Linda Martell on a Trap Country song is WILD LIKE THAT WHAT?!!? THE LEGEND?! As destiny said she is a MENANCE

- [ ] Alligator Tears is what I thought this album was going to sound like

- [ ] I get why she chose Miley Cyrus for the song but let me tell you Mickey Guyton or Yola would have been better

- [ ] The run from Texas Hold Em to Just For Fun is incredible no notes

- [ ] Levi’s Jeans probably the least good song on this album - sorry posty:(

[ritualofthehabit]

im not tryna defame beyonce like i dont care obviously but im glad ppl are picking up on the capitalism of it all like i know Lemonade made everyone go crazy (it was beautiful) but then staying with Jay z was in interesting choice….

the cowboy carter shit to me is so corny idk i see mixed reviews amongst cool friends i gotta say listening to it tho i thought it was very meh. My grandparents (especially the Albuquerque grandparents) are country fans and i love old country, but most of the new albums beyonce is making are like… corny overproduced new country but like with beyonce. She could have gone way further back with black country roots and created something almost unrecognizable next to white country but she wants the taylor swift money so that was never her intention…. It feels like such a blatant appeal to white music idk. And i think of ppl are definitely sick of her being a “revolutionary” about this and that and coopting those aesthetics to make money (black panther dancers at the super bowl anyone?) and it seems like w/ these albums she wants “to have her cake and eat it too” like appeal to corny white ppl and still have hip people and people of color applaud her for it.

i also cant with the jolene cover and everyone being like “oh she aint gonna let jolene get away with shit” when her husband repeatedly cheated on her but shes still with him. Thats some straight woman bs to me! Blaming women n not dumping ur bitch ass man?? Did u listen to his verse on Monster and not get the ick beyonce????

[fionaohara]

hi im linds and this is fiona!!!! she's a subdued spitfire, yep a living contradiction ;) this is my first time rping in a LONG time but im very EXCITED.... you’re excited for me too? nice. i’m kinda making it up as i go <3 you can like this and ill message you OR you can be forward ;) and send me a cheeky lil message on tumblr or my discord (errr#9757). for all the crap i’ve conjured, keep reading ;)

@frostfordstart​ i’m ready for my promo mwah

name: fiona mae o’hara yep shes southern

age: ummmm 27? and loving it. she’s really excited about getting older and bolder and mature. ideally she’d be one of those old ladies in sweatsuits but alas.

job: florist at busy bees but she really loves the greenhouse work. the art and creative aspect is fun but letting life flourish and getting her hands dirty makes it all the better.

karaoke songs: copa cabana, jolene, and livin la vida loca dont pretend this isn’t VITAL information

her mom had her at 16 and she was raised by her and her grandma. her dad wasn’t in the picture but fuck that guy who cares she was raised with love. #nodaddyissues.... unless?

it was just the three of them her whole life (she's got crazy old bats aka aunts/great aunts but they’re just anecdotal). her mom tried to teach her how to be a lady but her grandma wanted her to be a canon. it’s ok both those sides can manifest bc shes a gemini

once her ass was grown her mom covered her greys and went on eharmony? farmers only? and found love and they moved to florida and she doesn’t call or talk to her awwwwwwww :( not hard feelings just distance

#mommyissues????

works

that was too nonchalant. YES she works. yes she loves it. she’s the kinda chick that like.... says plants enjoy conversation. pastor’s wife’s grass isn’t green enough? call fiona. she lay down and talk to it. no, i’m not being hyperbolic.

when her mom got married and moved to florida and her granny went to live in assisted living... fiona inherited a big ol house. maybe she’ll open a bnb. wanna mow her lawn?

shes kinda all over the place and likes being what people need. if you need a rock, she’s there for you. if you wanna get drunk and sing some shania karaoke, y’all can share a mic. we love a multifaceted woman

she’s down for anything. party? romcoms? yep.

wee woo wee woo wee woo seamlessly shifting over to wanted connections

what are the options anyway????

- shes a local so we could be old friends..... BIDDIES WHO GOSSIP???

- brunch gffs

- i’m bad at this

- IDK COUSINS??? we could work out something with siblings too yknow.  younger siblings, half siblings.. STEP SIBLINGS??? idkman

- any ladies wanna start a book club

- CRAFT CLUB????

- exes, fwb, blah blah blah you know the sessy stuff we could kiss mwah

- what connections do YOU need ;)

- wanna be messy???

I love asking questions 2 much but who r ur fav characters from glee + reasons why? Least favourites and any honourable song mentions which deserve love pls xoxoxooxox

i love talking about my interests so no worries asiodhfdaf

it’s been a while since i’ve watched it in its entirety to have full opinions of the characters BUT mercedes was literally always the best and almost no one realized how incredible she was, sue was insane and is the most entertaining character in the whole show she just didnt give a fuck about anything, joe only because i love his voice but i dont remember anything about him tbh fhadsofs, blaine was nice i guess. my least favorites i don’t think i have any least favorites (that i remember, im sure there were a lot of characters that i disliked but i just cant remember any aside from that santana wannabe in the later seasons) but i do have the controversial opinion that santana is annoying IM SORRY but like chill out girl can’t you go a scene without insulting someone or talking about your ego holy shit, and also kurt that mf was so boring unless he was performing with someone else 

songs that deserve love...uptown girl was IT babey, constant craving??? hello????, there are worse things i could do, love shack, marry you, JOLENE I KNOW EVERYONE SAYS IT’S COACH’S WORST COVER BUT NO THAT’S WRONG, without you, fighter, and lucky. period

#dracosrollarskates #ask

[imagine-nation20]

was not at all stalking through your blog and I saw you listing (among others haha) hozier and Larkin Poe as some of your favourite aartists and I like aaaaah. I've never seen anyone also loving Larkin Poe! They're SO amazing! Do you have a favourite song of theirs?

I totally forgot about that(I think it was an ask I answered?) But yes! I love larkin poe with all my heart.

My favorite song doesnt have a studio recording(I dont think) but it is Mad as a Hatter! Their cover of Jolene is a close second!

I'm glad more people are starting to recognize them, but you are correct, they dont get enough attention.

[we-all-fall-underground]

Mutual Bond

After a long day of aggravating peers and surprise quizzes, Gen was making her way towards the school library to do a group study session that someone had invited her too. Her grades weren't looking very sharp in her sciences classes, so she figured she'd need the help. But on god if there was no one there-

And as soon as she entered the library, she found it to be quite empty, and her stomach tied up into knots. Oh god, oh god did she get the time wrong? The day wrong? Was she being pranked? Where was everyone? Maybe they meant an actual library to study at? Oh god, should she just turn back around???

Her anxiety was becoming so overwhelming that Gen just about turned around and headed back out, before she saw a familiar face sitting alone at a table: Dante. She paused for a moment, the knot still holding her back. She could... always just talk to him. She was already here anyways, wasting time. Or maybe he didn't want to be bothered, and then she'd feel even worse if he ignored her. Hhhhhhh...

Oh. Oh god. Dante looked over. His eyes settled on Gen and gave a small wave to her; Gen waving back. Whelp, too late. Now she gotta interact. Dante spotted her! She can't very well just leave! Gen took a deep breath to try and calm her nerves, and begrudgingly walked on over to him and sat across the table.

"H-hey Dante. Fancy seeing you here, heh. I hardly ever see you out of your room," Gen laughed. God, what if he could hear the panic in her voice.

"Hah. Good one."

Aw man. Aw he didn't actually laugh. That didn't sound like a real laugh... Did she accidentally offend him? Oh god, she sure hope she didn't. Gen grimaced. "Hehe, yeah." Gen silently looked around, now feeling obligated to look busy. Well, maybe she should try to get her homework done if she was just gonna stay here with Dante. So, with her shaky hands, she took out her stuff and set it out on the table.

Dante looked up briefly from his own studies, noticing how stiff she was and frowned. Gen was always so jumpy around him. Well, she was like that around everyone. He figured pretty quickly that she maybe just had social anxiety, so he's been tryna take it easy on her.

Then he noticed the confused faces she was making at her science homework. "Need help?" He asked, causing her to flinch.

"Oh! Uh, um," Gen chuckled, nodding her head. "Yeah. I was supposed to be with a study group that Jolene invited me to but um, I think I got the date wrong..."

Dante raised his eyebrows. "Oh, no yeah. We were supposed to all be here today, but then they all got like sports or left early or whatever," he sighed, waving his hand. "Unreliable jerks."

Gen tilted her head. "Y- are you part of the study group?" When Dante nodded and smiled, instantly Gen relaxed. "Oh cool. What a small world, haha. Then yeah, I really could use some help catching up with science. I'm... kinda falling behind," she said.

Sitting up, Dante's eyes seemed to gleam with excitement as he leaned over to look at what she was studying, going over the topics a few times to make sure she got it, and as time passed Gen became more and more relaxed. It was kinda funny, seeing him so energetic and passionate, when back at home she'd always see him so sluggish and bored. Well, he even gets this way when working on those potions of his. Made Gen wonder whether his being a witch had anything to do with how smart he was with this... Naaaah.

"Gen?" Dante waved his hand in her face, forcing her back to attention. "Did you get that?"

Oops. "Uh, oh, sorry. I kinda just..." Disassociated, "spaced out."

Dante smirked at her, then leaned back and crossed his arms behind his head. "It's alright. We can take a quick break; give you some time to wander until you feel ready to tackle the subject again."

Gen opened her mouth, then closed it again. Ah, was he being serious? But, wouldn't she just be wasting his time? Aw man, now Gen was starting to feel bad about drifting off in the first place, how can she possibly try to refocus?!

"I'm serious," Dante spoke, as though reading her mind. "I get it. I've seen you shift focus before. I know you'll find your way back." Gen stared at Dante blankly, making him laugh.

'... Dante laughs?'

He figured he should try to get to know Gen better... but here was where his skills kinda failed. Small talk. "So... hobbies?"

Gen shrugged. Small talk wasn't her forte either. "Um... I draw. Sometimes. Not too good at it." She subconsciously patted at a lone notebook laid out, tucking her hair back nervously. 'Please don't ask to look at it, pleeease dont ask to look at it-'

"Oh cool! Can i see?"

'Fuck.'

Dante dug around in his backpack for a moment and pulled out a notebook. "When I have time, I actually write a little bit- oh wait-" he quickly placed that notebook away and grabbed a different one. "I write. Trade?" Dante slid his notebook over, like a shady deals man.

Biting the inside of her cheek, Gen gripped tightly to her notebook and stared at Dante's. This was her chance: a chance to peer into the mysterious hobbies and inner workings of Dante's mind. He was always so reclusive... and yet he's willingly opening up to her. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad...

Gen placed her notebook on the table and slid it over as well, the two taking the others' and immediately looking in them. Dante the whole time was silently in awe, waiting to share his admiration for her sketches since he wanted Gen to read through his stuff undisturbed and get her feedback as well. Though seeing her eyes quickly scan over and watching her reactions was telling enough. She loved it.

"Dante! This is so cool! Your writing is impeccable!" Gen smiled, looking from the notebook to him.

"Ack I wouldn't know about that," Dante chuckled. "But i appreciate such high praise from such an amazing artist."

Gen blinked at him, then buried her blushing face into his notebook. "Myart'snotthatgood-"

"Aw come on," Dante splayed her notebook out, showing Gen's self portrait doodles. "The detail on this is amazing. It really looks like you!"

"Geemanidunno-"

"And, and this-!" He flipped back some pages to a lone girl in summer apparel: yellow shorts and stripped tank top; sitting on a window with a little plotted plant. "This is enough to give me ideas on what she could be looking at. Perhaps she's gazing out on a field of butterflies fluttering around the field, reminiscing on her childhood where she'd chase butterflies on end and enjoying the good times. Or perhaps she's looking out into a busy city street, desperately missing the suburban life and she watches the cars trample on barely peeking out grass that has grown through the cracks!"

Dante paused, looking back up to see Gen's shocked and impressed face, and he shrunk back, chuckling. "Ehh, just... the thoughts of a writer."

Gen blinked at him a few more times, before covering her mouth to fight off the urge to snort. "Big SAME though!" She smiled, pointing at his first page. "I can see this clear as day! I actually wanted to draw it! Your protag sounds so cute!"

Dante rolled his eyes, but he could not hide his smile. "Well then, it appears that we may got some business going on here that we should take the opportunity of." Very quickly, the two swapped back notebooks and got to work drawing and writing... before realizing they needed each other's works to reference, and they laughed. They quickly took care of that, got back to it, and all thoughts of science and school work faded away as the two got more and more involved with each other's stories and ideas.

New York:  Day 7

MEULIN: -She can't quite sleep; her dreams have been sort of weird. It's not too unlike usual, but having been bashed through a wall and dealing with serious pain in her ribs isn't the best for rest either. Her sylladex is back, so she's got her overhead light on and her notebook in hand, scribbling new lines. She's writing about Dave and Karkat currently, because they won't answer in the bulletin feed. She's anxious.-

JOEY: =Ugh, plane rides always threw off her sleep schedule, now more than ever since it had been near a decade since the last time she was on one.=

JOEY: =Seeing Meulin's light on, she weaved through the aisles until coming up to her row, sleepily rubbing an eye.=

JOEY: having a hard time zonking out too?

MEULIN: !

MEULIN: -She had kept the glasses on idly, but words scrolling across the screen startle her a little with how "quiet" it had been for some time.- OH... -clears throat, trying to be quiet.- MMHM...

MEULIN: -glances over at looks at Joey more fully- HEY, SO... WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?

MEULIN: I MEAN... NOT SUPER LITTERALLY. BUT WHERE HAVE YOU B33N? BEFORE NOW.

JOEY: tons of places, really...

JOEY: i lived on alternia for quite a while before bouncing between earths and alternias

JOEY: and now im finally back where i started :)

MEULIN: HAVE YOU NEVER B33N TO BEFURUS? -chirps with interest, wiggling in her chair to face Joey more fully-

MEULIN: -she doesn't seem to quite be grasping the plurality. She thinks it might just be a glasses typo-

JOEY: oh....no I dont think so

JOEY: my travels were stuck between the two switching back and forth

JOEY: thats actually a correlation I never really thought about... it's something to tell jude when he's awake haha

MEULIN: OH??

MEULIN: WHY BACK AND FURTH THERE?

JOEY: =is the seat open next to Meu? if so she's taking it. Funny enough, she found trolls easy to trust, having lived around them for so long. But Meulin was a stranger.... WELL, not for long!!=

JOEY: well see, it all starts with a long story, but the abridged version is that ive been trying to find my way back

JOEY: from different universes

MEULIN: -IT SURE IS, until Joey takes it.-

MEULIN: DIFFERENT MEWNIVERSES? -knits brows- I GUESS I'VE B33N TOLD A LITTLE ABOUT THAT... BUT IT S33MS SO SILLY...

MEULIN: NOT THAT I DON'T BELIEVE YOU! IT'S JUST... I GUESS IT'S HARD FUR ME TO MAKE SENSE OF.

JOHN: -he's been listening for a little bit, he didn't want to interrupt- it's the real deal, meulin. jake showed me a picture and everything.

MEULIN: ?! -LOOKS AROUND FOR JOHN.-

JOHN: -he's right here. he waves-

MEULIN: -OH HI-

JOHN: haha, sorry i didn't mean to startle you. i was listening to joey.(edited)

MEULIN: SO PEOPLE ARE JUST... HOPPING AROUND ALL WILLY-VANILLY?

JOEY: oh...im guessing different universes are common knowledge here? hehe i thought i was revealing a whopper of information that would totally blow your mind out of the mind ballpark

JOHN: hey i don't know about all that. all i know is jake is from a different universe too. and he showed me a picture of dirk from a different universe.

JOHN: but as far as i know he only went once. he didn't just...ping pong around like you're saying.

JOHN: -eyes her curiously-

MEULIN: OKAY, SO THIS ISN'T JUST MIND BLOWING FUR ME. GOOD TO KNOW. ~(=^. .^)

JOHN: my mind equals blown.

JOHN: -mimes the "mind blown gif thing"-

JOEY: oh

JOEY: well ping ponging might only work under very specific circumstances JOEY: at least in my case

JOEY: did jake come through a doorway?

JOLENE: ... -shifts a uncomfortably where she's sitting nOW THAT I'M PAYING ATTENTION-

JOHN: man...i don't know. i never asked him.

JOHN: sorry!

JOHN: don't worry though. you'll get to talk to him soon when we go get him.

JOEY: i hope so :)

JOEY: it would be an interesting conversation

JOHN: so uh, what was it like being a human on alternia?

JOHN: i mean tbh it sounds pretty terrifying.

JOEY: the trick is not to be a human on alternia ;)

JOHN: 👀

JOHN: -???-

JOHN: okay now you've got me all intriguied.

JOEY: well as long as you look the part, walk the walk, and talk the talk, trolls can be easy to fool =glances over at meulin= no offense

MEULIN: NONE TAKEN, WE'RE FURKING WEIRD.

JOHN: haha wow. really? so you slapped on some horns and face paint and that fooled the alternian authorities.

JOHN: wow. great job guys.

JOEY: well learning the language, registering as a maroon, and getting a sustainable job was a touch harder, but =shrugs=

JOHN: -raises his eyebrows, impressed.-

---

[SPEAKING OF TRAVEL PLANS, it's been getting a little bit harder to keep going the direct path they've been going in this plane-- between the border patrols protecting against the CANADIAN RESISTANCE LEAGUE and the ships that keep passing them by-- often requesting identification or confirmation of some kind-- it's been getting downright dangerous. The fact that they wound up in the middle of Ontario just to avoid some of the heat is beginning to make this a harder affair than it should be-- especially since they can see several other blips on the plane's radar rapidly approaching them.]

JOHN: -observes this bullshit- aw man...........

MEULIN: -after all her restlessness, she actually ended up falling asleep at last, leaned over with her head in Joey's lap, snoozing soundly. Prr prr.-

JOEY: =She's also sprawled in the chair, one hand on Meu's shoulders and a bit of drool running down her chin. A beautiful sight. Are the passengers able to hear the blips? Or see "blip" scroll across glasses in a lovely marquee?=

[The restfulness is interrupted by a few shrill chimes... it would seem the blips are getting MUCH closer. And much more interested in getting a straight answer out of this vessel.]

ROSE: -She sits up abruptly, waking from some kinda dream where her eyes are open, glancing around the cabin.-

JAMISON: =WHAT THE HOODLY-DOODLY? Is Jamison or Jolene driving either way he's ALERT and peeps at the radar= We seem to be the hot new thing in the clouds!

[ PLEASE IDENTIFY YOUR VESSEL AND ITINERARY]

[also it's jamison if u want it to be]

MEULIN: -She is deaf to the chimes... at least unless something else wakes her up.-

JOEY: =She jumped in her seat at the sudden shrillness of it. The movement may be enough to rouse her.=

JAMISON: =What should he do... should he LIE? He'll lie. Takes on a weird high-pitcher voice= Oh.... hullo!

JAMISON: We're simply a jerky craft delivering jerky from questionable products as anticipated bipbip right right! =Casually flies... how many are there? AIRFIGHTING is much more of a delicate dance than fighting on land and sea... it requires...... surprise=

JOEY: =she's rubbing her face, trying to wake herself faster=

[ There's a good four of them... and it IS a cargo vessel. So it's not exactly handling like a dream...]

JAMISON: =AUGH=

[ There is some mumbling and rustling on the other end.]

MEULIN: -snorks and CHIRPS out of her sleep, ears perked despite nothing to listen to.- WHAT...?

MEULIN: WHAT'S WRONG? -adjusts sunglasses on her face-

[ 'warning shot?' 'yeah dude warning shot' ] [ ' should i do it or--'] [ 'YOU ARE BOTH COWARDS'] [that one was less of a mumbled rustle as it was a scream, as a missile flies directly towards their tail.]

[ ' OH HEY GUESS WHAT ASSHOLES, GUESS WHAT, KOLETA DOESN'T KNOW WHAT A FUCKING WARNING SHOT IS, BIG SURPRISE']

[ the one who evidently named the shot and is ALSO evidently named Koleta shouts something back.]

ROSE: I-- I think you can cut the com channel.

JAMISON: Frigs Koleta! =SWERVES plane=

JOEY: =she puts a finger to her lips, signing "Contact" and pointing to the cockp--= JOEY: =SCREAMS!=

JAMISON: =HE KICKS IT=

[ There is a muffled BOOM as the plane shakes. But the blips are getting closer-- at least there's no obvious major damage.]

MEULIN: ~(=ΦェΦ) !!!

MEULIN: FURK!!!! WHAT WAS THAT???

MEULIN: ARE WE BEING SHOT AT???

JAMISON: We may very well have to make an emergency landing, all!

ROSE: Slightly.

JAMISON: Perhaps if they clip us with another missile we can use debris as a cover while they chase the bum plane on auto-pilot!

ROSE: We're... not too far from a town. I think. -She squints at her phone.- ROSE: That's actually a good plan.

ROSE: We can lay low and secure another transport.

ROSE: And they may possibly believe we're dead.

JAMISON: Right-o!

JAMISON: In which case everyone brace yourselves for a good bailing! =He'll have to pay attention and time this right=

[BOOM. BOOM. And then, BOOM. it sounds like the other three pilots were all showing of that thEY know what a god damned warning shot is.]

ROSE: I--

ROSE: Do we have... parachutes?

ROSE: I haven't been able to do much, since the falls.

JOEY: yes! =flinches at the booms=

MEULIN: -reading as fast as she can- BAILING??

MEULIN: -scrambles out of her seat-

JAMISON: Of course, no good explore leaves without one!

JOEY: they seem a heck of a lot bigger than bullets though!

JUDE: -absolutely has a parachute? you never know when you're going to need one.-

JAMISON: =He's so proud of his kids....=

JOHN: well uh, i can carry a few peeps but a big group might be a target.(edited)

ROSE: Right. Right. Visual cover or something.

JOEY: =She ducked out into the aisle and began throwing open compartments to see if there's anything useful in there? like additional parachutes.=

JOEY: =calls over to jude= we should skydive until we reach a safe distance from the ground to avoid being sitting targets in the air!

JAMISON: I do have a raft which could cover a few souls!

JAMISON: =Hide them behind a raft falling out of a plane.=

[There's some supplies! There's actually a flaregun in there, some walkie-talkies... not that they've needed them, since they have communicators.]

JOHN: oh hey good idea!

JAMISON: =SOMEONE GRAB THOSE WALKIES HE'LL TAKE EM APART AND MAKE EM GUNS AND BOMBS AND GUNBOMBS=

JOEY: =He likely knows this of course, but everyone knowing their game plan is nice= JOEY: =She scooped them into her sylladex anyway.=

JOEY: =brilliant minds=

JAMISON: =Good on ya Joey!! :D =

[BUT NOT THE FLARES JAMISON??]

JOHN: - flips the raft on its side and holds on to it firmly- well anybody without a chute grab on tight!

JAMISON: =YES OF COURSE, they do well for lighting people on fire=(edited)

JOHN: the egbert airline express is ready for take off! :D - salutes-(edited)

ROSE: -Takes a deep breath and grabs onto it.-

ROSE: It cannot possibly be worse than going over niagra falls.

JOHN: smooth rides guaranteed. sorry no peanuts. (disclaimer: smooth ride not actually guaranteed.)

JAMISON: Those with be sure to cover yourselves with the chunks blown clean from our very own flyer!

[ SOME MORE MUFFLED BOOMS. Hitting the aircraft, in fact. And less muffled. And more shaky.]

ROSE: ...Yes. Good timing. -SLAMS THE BUTTON TO OPEN THE CARGO DOOR-

JOHN: nyoom! - SCREAMS THE WORD NYOOM, double checks that everyone is grabbing on and then JUMPS-

JAMISON: =He waits for all to vacate in the smoke and wreckage= GO GO GO!

JOHN: - It's not as difficult to hold on as if they were simply falling. it's more like going down a VERY VERY long and steep slide with the Breeze carrying them- pchoooooo!

JAMISON: =Once they've gone he sets the plane on auto-pilot and dives for the door as well, covering his body with some debris and free falls. Doing spins to appear like normal wreckage.... gotta committ=

[The planes don't seem to pick them up-- all going directly after their cargo plane. They probably see them whooshing overhead, following the trail of smoke and fire.]

JAMISON: =Excellent, he ditches the debris and dives a little closer to the ground before deploying his parachute=

[ Prepare for a ROUGH LANDING. They're near a road-- one that hasn't been upkept all that well, but still a road no less! And a sign of nearby civilization.]

JOHN: - now that the danger seems to be gone he enjoys the rest of the ride, holding onto the raft tightly and at the last second, laughing and flipping the raft over so they land on it-(edited)

MEULIN: -WELL SHIT THEY SURE ARE FALLING. She can almost sort of hear a little bit of this with what tiny hearing she has left, with all the wind whipping in her ears.-

JAMISON: =DOOF! But he doesn't blow out his shins! He's hastily folding the parachute up and shoving it back in his dex, it can be used later!=

[There are MULTIPLE DOOFS.]

ROSE: -kind of wheezes as she looks around...-

ROSE: ...About half a mile south.

ROSE: Is. The town I mentioned.

JOHN: -remains spilled over on his back, looking up at the sky upside down.-

JOHN: great day to be in canada, eh? weather looks fine, eh?

ROSE: John, please.

ROSE: You were practically Canadian already.

ROSE: I've met your father.

JAMISON: Mighty fine weather to be not where we were! =Dusts himself off and looks ahead=

ROSE: I'll agree to that.

ROSE: -She rubs her back, sitting up and looking around. A moose is staring at them, knowing no fear.-

JOEY: =floats to the ground shortly after, Meulin in her arms=

MEULIN: 333333!!! (ノᄌ<。)

MEULIN: -no less than CLINGING to Joey. she glances at the sky to see if their plane is going to spiral down and explode somewhere, since it's likely she won't hear it. She is sort of distracted by that moose, though.- (´⊙ω⊙)

JAMISON: =A MOOSE? WHERE!!=

JAMISON: =Instantly distracted=

http://i.imgur.com/DqDLwfq.gif

JOEY: look at that majestic creature JOEY: :D

JAMISON: =Slides out his knide slowly=

JOLENE: -NO!!-

JAMISON: =WE NEED TO EAT=

JAMISON: (Sssshhhhh.)

MEULIN: -shakes her head, freeing the fur hair.- B33 ARE B33. -crawls off of Joey to prowl...-

JAMISON: =MEULIN gets it!=

JOEY: D: =but it's a moose!=

JOEY: =earth wildlife!!=

JAMISON: =Imagine the honor it'll have to be our meal then..... also if it's running... he's in pursuit=

[THIS HERE EARTH WILDLIFE STARES AT THE APPROACHING MORTALS PEOPLE]

JOEY: =WE MEAN NO HARM OH MOOSE GOD! i mean, meulin and dad proabably do but wow please dont eat us=(edited)

JAMISON: =Hello dinner!=

JAMISON: =He's approaching with fists raised. Giving it a chance to FIGHT for it's life=

JOEY: =s otp=

JAMISON: =HE'S GIVING IT A FAIR SHOT=

MOOSE: -oh it will. IT CHARGES HEAD ON-

JAMISON: Have at thee future meal deal! =He watches this charge and is gonna try to duck under the horn charge to CHOKEHOLD a moose=

MOOSE: -NOT FOND OF THIS ARRANGEMENT!!! IT TRASH-

MEULIN: -SHE'S FLANKING THE MOOSE!!!! and then pounces from behind. EN GUARDE.-

JAMISON: Whoa there! =Is thrashed and HAWs at Meulins pounce=

MOOSE: -DEAD-

JAMISON: =DROPS IT= Well then! Dinner well caught!

JAMISON: :D

ROSE: There was a town nearby.

ROSE: So we could have—

ROSE: Actually, nevermind.

ROSE: Good work.

ROSE: -GOTTA KEEP MORALE UP SOMEHOW-

MEULIN: -HUFF PANT. Her glasses went flying in the midst of this so she misses that too. Retracts claws and offers Jamison a HIGH FIVE.-
