I was at a campground with a bunch of tents and caravans and stuff. I apparently had this unfriendly rivalry with The Killers (the rock band). I have no idea what they look like irl, but dream me knew that this random group of guys were The Killers.
Anyway, partway through the dream, some unknown person had egged all the caravans in the park. A random old man came up to me and told me that The Killers and I needed to stop fighting and work together to find out who threw eggs at everything. Somehow, we put our rivalry on hold and agreed to help each other figure out what happened.

i just started following u
can you talk about your version of henry please he's my blorbo
Here's some fun facts about Henry in the Soldered Wires AU (in order of least to most unhinged):
1) Henry and William often spent their free nights at the local disco club. The duo worked listening to the entire discography of ABBA
Tumblr media
2) Henry has had a curiousity with how technology works. As a result, if new technology enters the Emily household, there would be a high chance Henry would've disassembled it in an hour (Likely a sign of neurodivergency in his side of the family)
Tumblr media
3) As a result, Henry is a savant in repuposing tech to fit his needs (for better or for worse)
Tumblr media
4) There is a good reason why Bon's Burgers never made it past the Rocky Mountains.
Tumblr media
5) There was one argument that has not been resolved between Henry and William:

there's a rush of blood when you go this fast when you're up against it, I got your back they say that good things just don't last but I'll say this
Behold my latest project! My beloved mutual @accidental-spice recommended this song to me, and I couldn't help but make a percabeth edit with it! Reblogs are appreciated, but please do not repost this video or reuse these clips in another video! I'll post a description of the video for those with screenreaders and my taglist under the cut!
The above video is of clips of Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase, mostly taken from the Disney+ Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, incorporated as follows:
'Cause we got this thing that I can't describe
[clip of Annabeth giving Percy her necklace, his eyes fixed on her]
Like I fell for you in another life
[two fanarts of Percy and Annabeth based on the books]
And I'd fall again a thousand times
[clip of Percy in TLT musical, taking Annabeth by the hand and twirling her]
And I mean it
[video showing two panels of Percy and Annabeth from TLT graphic novel]
yeah, I mean it
[clips of Percy looking at Annabeth in TLT movie]
taglist: @laughingphoenixleader @jedi-nurse {if you’d like to be added to my percabeth/pjo taglist, let me know!}
Every little fork in the road
[clip of Annabeth looking at Percy when he chooses her for the quest]
Never feel my hand letting go
[clip of Annabeth helping Percy up on the beach]
If I did, you know I'm running back
[clip of Percy taking Annabeth's place at the arch]
You and me, we got a love like
[clip of Percy looking up to see Annabeth protecting him from Luke]
Two names on a tree
[clip of Annabeth watching Percy get unstatued]
Sure as every breath that you breathe
[clip of Percy breathing heavily after being unstatued]
Every beat is like a heart attack
[clip of Percy and Annabeth smiling together at the arch]
You and me, we got a love like that
[clip of Annabeth fixing Percy's armor strap, then of her giving him a hug when he returns to Camp Half-Blood]
Love like that
[clip of Annabeth and Percy looking up at Hephaestus, then of her and him talking about what monsters they faced each day (like an old married couple)]
You and me, we got a love like that
[clip of Annabeth looking at Percy while he's driving the taxi, and him smiling back, then of them talking in their goodbye scene at the end of the finale]

My hope for next season and leading into the Olympic season is that the ISU somehow revives womens skating cause yes it’s beautiful yes it’s lovely but is it exciting? Ehhhh.
In my personal opinion it’s the discipline that’s stagnated the most post Covid. You can argue that the crown goes to ice dance in that regard but even though the judging is shitty and the ISU insists on ridiculous themes for the rhythm dance we’re still getting quality and creativity through the bouts of corruption.
I just feel like women’s choreography has plateaued, it’s become uninteresting, very little memorable programs. Same elements same ordering same music like it’s becoming a by bland to watch. And my honest wish for the future is to reignite the spark it once had.

I have played over the music of that scoundrel Brahms. What a giftless bastard!
- Tchaikovsky writing in his diary in 1886.
Russian composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky had a lot to say about Brahms’ music- all bad. Johannes Brahms, for his part, didn’t seem to much enjoy Tchaikovsky’s music, either. He attended a rehearsal for Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony and fell asleep. Although the two composers share a birthday - 7 May, with Brahms, born in 1833, being seven years older - they illustrate opposite poles of the composing spectrum. Brahms was the great classicist, building vast symphonies and concertos with intricate musical logic; Tchaikovsky was the heart-on-sleeve emotionalist, as colourful as Brahms was sober.
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Johannes Brahms simply understood, felt and composed music very differently, and judged each other’s work accordingly — sometimes positively, sometimes brutally.
Tchaikovsky was far more an antagonist than Brahms. The Russian composer’s chief criticism of Brahms’ music was that it was too controlled and not emotional enough. In a letter to his patron in 1879, he wrote of Brahms’ violin concerto, “His music is not warmed by true feelings, there is no poetry in it, though it has great pretension to depth.”
As for Brahms, stories have long circulated that he fell asleep at a performance of a Tchaikovsky symphony.  There’s no evidence that this actually happened, but it’s true that Brahms was often seen taking an afternoon snooze in the cafes of Vienna and was known to fall asleep at the table or theatre.
Composers are rarely members of a mutual admiration society, but Tchaikovsky’s concerns seem to focus more on style than on musicianship. “Hard as I try to respond to his music,” he adds, “I remain cold and hostile. It is a purely instinctive feeling.”
In his diary, he was even more explicit, calling Brahms a “giftless bastard,” and his work “self-inflated mediocrity.” But his opinion seems to have softened in 1887, shortly after being invited for Christmas dinner at the Leipzig home of a friend, where he was “astonished” to find Brahms at the table, as well.
Brahms was there to rehearse his Piano Trio in C minor, Op. 101, and Tchaikovsky sat through the whole piece and made no critical comment. Writing a friend about the evening, Tchaikovsky called Brahms “a very nice person, and not at all proud as I had imagined.”
It was a major breakthrough, and Tchaikovsky would spend six days in Leipzig, encountering Brahms several more times. He wrote home that the German composer did everything he could to be agreeable — but was far better as a drinking companion than as a conversationalist.
Brahms attended a rehearsal for the Leipzig premiere of Tchaikovsky’s Orchestral Suite No. 1, and expressed approval of the first movement, but strongly criticized the jovially childlike march (which to our ears points ahead to the sound world of the Nutcracker).
A year later, Tchaikovsky arrived in Hamburg to find Brahms there, planning to attend a rehearsal of Tchaikovsky’s new Fifth Symphony. Having heard the piece, Brahms told Tchaikovsky he approved of the first three movements but disliked the finale.
Honest criticism like this rarely upset Tchaikovsky - and, besides, he hadn’t liked any of Brahms’ symphonies, either.
“Brahms is very amiable,” he wrote to his brother. “After the rehearsal we had lunch together and drank well. He is a very sympathetic person and I like his integrity and simplicity.” Tchaikovsky even tried—unsuccessfully—to persuade Brahms to conduct in Moscow during the next season.
Brahms was the one contemporary who, both in output and stature, matched Tchaikovsky, and public comparisons were expected. But, in a somewhat endearing turnabout, the two rival composers grew to appreciate each other as individuals, if not always approving of each other’s music.

pete in tgwdlm seems just as stressed as pete in npmd, which leaves me to wonder
what if all of the murder happened in the tgwdlm timeline, right before the apotheosis, but without all of the waylon place mess, leaving the LiB (or maybe just pokey) free from any ghostly responsibilities?
