The way you’ve characterized Lonely Wizard in your retyrement au fic (esp in that drawing you shared of the students and their interests outside of the painting interest that Magnificus kind of forces onto them) reminds me of the song “Remedy” by Little Boots. It’s a song all about how music and dancing can be liberating and freeing from a toxic mindset, and that really seems to fit their character.
not only are you right, you've enlightened me to a true banger; wiz would definitely jam to this kind of music ngl
the only thing i'd dispute is that technically (in this AU anyway) the students are kinda trying to force the painting interest on themselves; they each have other forms of art that they're much better at and more passionate about but due to mag's reputation and level of prestige have convinced themselves that painting is the only true "high art"; that being said magnificus and his ego certainly won't miss an opportunity to feed into this misconception lol
but generally the song's lyrics fit into that reading too i think! also, not to spoil my own story, but the "dance with the enemy" bit of the chorus will become quite a bit relevant to wiz's character later...

There's an event near me in two weeks and there's going to be an Anderson display and Jaime Anderson and Richard James will be there.
My question is whether it's worth me trying to put together an Angel costume or not 👀 I have two weeks (and I need to overcome my agrogophobia too). Will it be enough time?
Does anyone have any tips? It's been a while since I've con-crunched a cosplay.

i feel so bad for nikola tesla like imagine spending years beefing with a guy who has conned the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and you end up dying broke and starving and alone and then 100 years later another guy cons the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and he's doing it all IN YOUR NAME. he must be rolling in his grave like a fucking rotisserie chicken
