“”Wait, Yel!” You laughed a little louder than you normally would when the tiny blonde kept dragging you further forward through the crowd, still feeling a pleasant buzz from all the alcohol you had to drink before you arrived at the concert venue. “We’re missing Kate. And Wanda and Pietro.”
“They’re already at the front with Peter and Shawn.” Yelena squeezed your hand and grinned at you over her shoulder as she kept pulling you after her. “C’mon, spike. What good is having a giant for a friend if you don’t use your height to make people move out of my way?”
“Excuse me for being polite… sorry!” You shrugged uncomfortably when you bumped someone with your elbow, waving when you finally saw Kate bouncing on her toes with the rest of your group right by the stage. “Everyone is gonna hate me for blocking the view.”
“They’ll get over it.” She jumped to kiss you on the cheek then gave Kate a hug. “I’m so bummed Johnny couldn’t come but this is fucking amazing. Maybe we’ll get some spit on us.”
“You’re so weird.” Peter shook his head and beamed at Yelena as he leaned on Wanda’s shoulder. “But I’d let Fandral step on me, so what do I know?”
Everyone started to ramp up to debate who the hottest member of Aesir was, but then the stadium lights went down and the spotlights illuminated the stage and the crowd seemed to hold its breath.
Smoke filled the stage and a single, mournful note from a guitar wavered through the air at the same time the deep throb of a bass drum’s beat began and the crowd went fucking insane. Yel basically climbed you until her legs were wrapped around your waist and she was screaming in your ear when the shadows of five people appeared through the fog. Not that you minded, since you were whooping right along with her.
The guitar started to speed up and everyone got even louder when they recognized the opening notes of “Darling, You Killed Me.” Flashing lights lit up Sif first on the drums, a grin on her face as she spun her sticks through her fingers and winked at the crowd then started drilling out a heavy rhythm that you could feel in your chest. Next was Volstagg on bass, his thick red hair kept away from his face in a braid that swayed with his movements as he started plucking out a rhythm. Then came Hogun on keys, a soaring melody washing over everyone when he began to play. After Hogun, Fandral was illuminated, flicking a blonde curl out of his eyes with a toss of his head and beaming wickedly at the frenzied masses as he gave them a thoroughly dramatic strum of his guitar.
And then, finally, a trio of golden spotlights focused on the lonely mic in the middle of the stage and a sweet, low voice greeted the crowd as the god of a front runner for maybe the biggest band in the world was revealed to the crowd.
“Well, hello there New York. I’m Thor and this is Aesir. How are you all doing tonight?”
Judging from the absolutely wild and unhinged shrieks that filled the air, along with what you were pretty sure were several pairs of panties and a few bras, the answer to that question was insane and horny.
But who could blame them? Every single member of the band was like a god, mysterious and otherworldly and charming in all their leather and metal, with intricate braids in their hair and tattoos covering their skin. Just the chance to touch one of their boots had the throng of fans behind you pressing you into the stage until Yelena and Pietro gave them a pair of intimidating looks.
As gorgeous and unattainable as the rest of the band was, the main object of everyone’s attention and obsession was definitely the massive, built, gorgeous lead singer and guitarist, Thor. He was the only thing you could look at, that deep voice making you shiver and your dick get half hard every time his eyes seemed to focus on you.
Which was such a weird thought. He couldn’t see you. He couldn’t see anything with all those lights on him. You were just way too drunk and maybe a little moony from being this close to your biggest celebrity crush.
All through the rest of the show you just kept watching him, smiling like a goddamn lunatic until your cheeks ached. It was probably… no, it was definitely the best night of your life, with all of your friends who seem to be just as giddy as you. You all were smiling and shouting nonsense at each other that none of you could hear over the music and the screaming crowd until the lingering notes of the last song died out and the arena lights came back up.
“Holyshitholyshitholyshitholyshit…” you were starting to freak out as you and your friends made your way backstage, squeezing Yel and Kates’ hands while they dragged you along and giving Shawn a nervous grin when the bodyguard unclipped the velvet rope and let your group past. “I’m gonna fucking throw up.”
“You’re not allowed to throw up unless it’s all over a rock god’s dick, spike.” Kate laughed when you spluttered as your face got unbearably warm. “Just enjoy yourself, make some memories to tide you over when you have to go back to writing your damn thesis on Monday.”
You shrugged uncomfortably but couldn’t say anything because all of a sudden they were there. More specifically, HE was there.
It felt like your tongue was too big for your mouth and your jaw was about to hit the floor as you just stood there dumbfounded while you watched the most famous people you’d ever seen in your life greet Yelena and ask about her sister like it was no big deal. You must’ve looked like a moron with your mouth hanging open, not even managing to get yourself even a little bit under control by the time Yel started to introduce everyone, you barely even registered it when she said your name.
“You’re lucky you even got to see him.” Yelena was still talking about you, but all you could focus on was the way Thor’s eyes were practically boring into yours before you dropped your gaze to the floor with a nervous titter. “Always so busy with grad school or volleyball practice, had to drag him here tonight.”
“Well we’re so happy you managed.” There was a very large hand pressed to the wall beside your face all of a sudden and it made your breath catch, just barely peeking through your lashes and trying not squeak when those same intense blue eyes were fixed on your face. “I would have been very disappointed if I hadn’t gotten to see your pretty friend, Belova. What do you want to drink, pretty boy?”
“Hmm?” Was he talking to you? Holy shit, he was… what was happening? “Um, beer is fine.”
“Beer it is.” Thor grabbed a newly filled cup out of Volstagg’s hand and ignored the bassist’s offended grunt as he handed it to you. “You’re quite tall.”
“Yeah…” you decided to stare at the bottom of your cup while you chugged its contents to try to settle your nerves, only vaguely aware of the conversation the rest of the group was having when Pietro let out a boisterous laugh.
“Did little Yelena tell you that I have always been particularly fond of tall boys?” The feeling of his fingers gripping your chin and tilting your face up until your eyes were level with his was making you practically vibrate.
“Nu-uh.” Words seemed to escape you at the moment when you saw his gaze drop to your mouth and licked his lips almost obscenely. You also may have dropped your cup.
“Well I do.” Oh shit, his thumb was tracing over your bottom lip and this could not be happening. “You wanna get out of here?”
“Yes! Yes he does!” Yelena and Kate almost tripped over each other when they rushed towards you and tried to shove you into your jacket before you could even think, beaming between you and the rockstar while your mouth worked silently and your eyes bugged out of your head. “Yes you do.”
All you could do was nod enthusiastically then almost swallow your tongue when Thor wrapped his massive arm around your shoulders and started guiding you towards the door, giving your friends a terrified look over your shoulder while they just gave you thumbs up then went back to talking to the rest of the band. Before you even knew what was happening you were outside waiting for the car to show up and looking at Thor with huge eyes as you struggled to come up with something to say.
You didn’t know what the fuck had come over you. You hadn’t even said a full sentence to the man and you were about to get into a towncar with him and let him fuck you… you didn’t even know where you were going. Oh, his home, he just told the driver to take him home, Jesus Christ. Good thing there was a minibar in the back, you needed something to settle yourself down so you could hopefully enjoy what was about to happen to you.
As soon as you had downed and tossed your second mini bottle of tequila his hand was loosely gripping your neck and he was pulling you towards him, his lips finding your ear and sucking on it while you just let out a truly pathetic sounding whimper as you gripped his shoulders. His breath was warm against your neck and the hand that wasn’t wrapped around your throat was insistent on your waist while he pressed your body against the passenger side door. He smelled like cigarette smoke and leather and clean sweat and you had never been more aroused in your entire life.
“You are so sweet for such a big boy.” He licked your jaw and purred when you flung one of your legs over his lap. “You ever sucked a god’s dick before, love?”
This was going to be the death of you. You were ready to sink to the floor right away and bury your face in his crotch while you humped his boot before choking on what you were sure was going to be the most magnificent cock you’d ever seen in your life. The opportunities for you to suck dick were few and far between. Every single date you had saw how big you were and just started calling you daddy and slobbering all over you. It wasn’t fair, you loved sucking cock.
Of course, if this was going to be your only chance to get in bed with a rock god, you were gonna make the absolute most of the opportunity.
“No.” You wound your arms around his neck and batted your eyelashes as you gave a lewd roll of your hips, feeling flushed from the alcohol and especially bold when he growled at you. “And I’m not gonna tonight unless you ask me real nice.”
He froze, blinking slowly as he stared at you and making you feel slightly panicky when he still didn’t say anything while you chewed on your lip. And then he laughed, a beautiful, warm, booming laugh that made him toss his head back and pull you closer while he squeezed your waist. That thunderous sound made you feel so fucking giddy you almost giggled when you buried your face in his neck, at least until he gripped your hair tight and yanked your head back so he could look you in the eyes.
“You sneaky little minx.” Thor grinned when you gasped as he smacked your ass, tutting when you tried to grind into his lap and pouted at him. “Made me think you were so sweet and shy and pliant. I’m gonna have so much fun with you.”
“Maybe, maybe not.” You groaned when he bit your bottom lip and squirmed when you felt more blood rush to your dick. “You have to be sweet first.”
“Do I now?” Thor grabbed your ass again and jiggled it, growling while he bit along your jaw and licked your throat. “I usually save that for after.”
“Hmm, well I want it now.” The limo came to a stop and you kissed the tip of his nose before climbing out, groaning when his massive hand wrapped around your throat from behind and hit your ear. “Just say please, and maybe I’ll let you feel how tight I am.”
“Brat.” He laughed and swatted your ass again, shoving you into the elevator and beaming at you as he ran a hand through his golden hair. “Alright… please get on your fucking knees and suck my cock like a good boy.”
His voice had somehow gotten even lower and it made you shiver. Without even bothering to check in there were cameras you sank to your knees right in front of him and rubbed your cheek over his incredible bulge that held the promise of something truly monstrous. You were already drooling, your own cock throbbing and leaking as you undid his jeans as you kept looking up into his eyes. It was short work, his zipper coming down in a flash and then your hand reaching in and wrapping around him and…
“Jesus fucking Christ.” Yep, monstrous. “Fuck me.”
“Later.” Thor growled and grabbed the base of the flan python he had been hiding, slapping it against your cheeks until you opened your mouth wide and let him slide between your lips. “I told you to suck like a good boy.”
He didn’t have to tell you twice, your tongue swirling around his velvety head while you hollowed your cheeks and used your hand to stroke his shaft. It was, without a doubt, the biggest dick you had ever had in your mouth. This was confirmed by the ache in your jaw and the way you gagged messily when he shoved his tip down your throat.
Thor hit the brake on the elevator so he could truly enjoy the sight of you on your knees, leaning on the wall and grinning down at you while you slobbered all over him. He groaned when you swallowed around him, reaching down with a deep chuckle and wrapping his hand around your throat so he could squeeze his cock even tighter. The feeling was absolute heaven, it was everything you needed. Your eyes fluttered closed when his hips met your face, your body going lax at the feeling of being used so thoroughly and completely.
“That’s fucking it.” Thor shoved you against the wall and braced his thick thighs on either side of your head, his fingers burying themselves in your hair so he could keep you in place while he fucked your throat in deep, slow strokes. “Oh, you love this shit, don’t you? Mouth off like a fucking brat and then turn into a dumb little baby as soon as you have a dick in your mouth. Bet you wish you could get shut up with cock all the time, don’t you pretty boy?”
As much as you tried to nod, you could barely move your head, not with him holding you tight and his massive cock filling your throat. So you just whined around him, drool dripping down your chin in thin strings and staining your shirt. It was getting harder to breathe, both from the enormous blockage of your airway and from the heady pleasure of finally getting what you so desperately needed.
“Ah, stay with me!” You started when he smacked your face, your cheeks heating up when he laughed richly at your eyelashes fluttering as he started moving just a little bit faster. “You don’t get to pass out yet, love. Now, swallow.”
That was the only warning you had before he was swelling in your mouth and then exploding down your throat. You swallowed as fast as you could, gagging and slurping and moaning while you struggled to suck down every thick and sticky drop he was giving you. It was impossible, though, there was so much. Thor chuckled when it leaked out of your lips around the base of his cock, mixing with your drool in a creamy mess that dripped onto the floor when he started the lift again.
When the doors opened you only had a moment to appreciate the beautiful penthouse apartment before he was dragging you to your feet and kissing you all over again. Your limbs felt too long for this, gangly and awkward when he should just be scooping you up in his arms. But he didn’t seem to mind, squeezing your waist and licking into your mouth while you whined with need.
“Please…” You whimpered when he shoved you into the bedroom and gave you a hickey on your jaw, licking your lips as his hands slipped under the edge of your shirt and touched your bare skin. “I want…”
“Begging like a little slut after giving me so much lip.” Thor nipped at your chin playfully before shoving you back, pushing his hair out of his eyes and strutting over to the bar cart on the other side of the room. “Now it’s your turn to be sweet. Strip for me.”
You opened your mouth to argue but something in the way he looked at you had you snapping your jaw closed again. He just shrugged when you narrowed your eyes, pouring himself a glass of vodka and looking at you expectantly while he leaned on the wall. If he wanted a show, you could give him a show.
Thor watched you pull your cum stained shirt over your head slowly, his eyes widening just slightly once your lean torso was revealed to him. It’s not like you didn’t know how you looked. You were an athlete, you spent a lot of time lifting weights and stretching and you were proud of your body. Especially now when the rock god of your dreams was watching you like he wanted to eat you. For just a second you thought about waiting to take off everything until he begged to see all of you, but you could still taste his cum at the back of your throat, and that blow job had gotten you all kinds of worked up.
Your cock smacked wetly against your abs when you’d removed your jeans and boxer briefs in one smooth motion, kicking them away so you were standing there completely bare while his eyes drank you in. His teeth dragged over his bottom lip while you just teased the head of your cock with your fingertips, his throat working visibly when he swallowed another mouthful of vodka before he growled at you in a husky voice.
“There’s lube in the bedside table.” He started sipping his drink again when you opened the drawer and gasped at the toys that greeted you. “Ah, those are for later. Put that ass in the air and open yourself up for me.”
“Fine.” You poured a little when you got on all fours on the bed, resting your cheek against the cool comforter and spreading your legs so your rock god could see your tight little hole winking at him as you spread the firm cheeks of your ass. “But I don’t like a lot of prep.”
That made him growl, the noise sending a vibration through your body even from across the room as you smeared lube all over your fingers. When your first finger slipped inside of your tiny asshole you couldn’t help but whine, slowly swirling it around and plunging it in and out while you did your best to make slutty noises. You could tell they were working, could hear his breath getting faster and heavier as you stretched your hole. The second finger made you gasp, a shiver running up your spine as you scissored yourself open as you heard the sounds of Thor getting undressed behind you.
“That’s enough. God, you really are a dangerous little minx.” Thor smacked your ass once before pressing kisses along your spine, reaching to grab a condom and rolling it over his length while you panted underneath him. “Gonna turn you inside out, boy.”
“No… just a sec.” You sat up and shoved him back, giggling when he gave you a look full of indignation at you pushing him away. “I wanna ride that fucking monster. Lemme feel it in my throat, please.”
“Fuck… dangerous.” His grin was splitting his face in half when he flopped back on the bed, a rich laugh shaking his chest when you scrambled on top of him and straddled his waist. “You’re a fucking show off. Alright, lemme see you work that boy pussy, love.”
Him calling your asshole your pussy had you clenching so hard you were worried all your prep might have been in vain, not that that was going to stop you. You looked into his sharp blue eyes as you reached behind you to grip his thick cock, your entire body shivering when you lined him up and started to slowly sink down on him. Just the tip had you practically seeing stars, a choked off sob escaping from you without your permission as you circled your hips to get used to the stretch. An inch at a time, you made sure to keep breathing deeply, scowling at him when he slapped you and told you to hurry it the fuck up as he didn’t have all night with everything he wanted to do to you.
“Son of a… motherfucker.” You had to bite your lip to keep from screaming when your ass finally nestled into the dip of his hips, your thighs trembling around his waist while he just looked up at yiu with a pleased smirk on his face.
“Look at you taking all of me, and with just two fingers’ prep.” Thor snapped his hips up and chuckled when you let out a gasp. “C’mon love, work that little cunt like the slut I know you are. You begged for this, now fucking take it.”
You might have called him an asshole, since he did give you ass a rather vicious slap, but you started moving. This… this was exactly what you wanted. He was hitting you right where you needed as you ride him, a sultry moan leaving your lips as you started to find a rhythm that made your eyes flutter. Before you knew it you were riding him in earnest, bouncing up and down on his cock wildly and tossing your head back so you could pant and whine as you braced your hands on his thighs. Your own cock was bouncing too, leaning pearly rivers of precum all over his abs that looked like they were sculpted from golden marble.
When his fist wrapped around your dick you screamed, shaking when your cum exploded out of you without warning and hit him in the face. You wanted to splutter out an apology but then he was sitting up and all you could do was squeal, gasping when he kissed you obscenely and made you taste yourself on his tongue.
“Messy fucking boy, knew you were a little slut.” You never thought you would love being called a whore and having your asshole called a pussy while you were full of dick, but here you were. Maybe it was because he had suck a warm smile on his face while he said everything. “We’re not even close to being done, love.”
“Yes… shit!” You cried out when his hands gripped your waist and he started moving you his own damn self, wrapping your arms around his thick neck and clenching your teeth as his cock completely rearranged your guts in the most delicious way. “Fuck my little pussy, make me fucking take it.”
“Yeah, there’s my dirty boy.” Thor sucked on your neck when you sobbed for him, groaning when he felt your dick getting hard as it rubbed against his stomach. “Gonna ruin you for anyone else, may just have to keep you as my slutty little pet, would you like that?”
“Yeah… mmhm.” You hiccuped when he licked your throat, your breath getting punched out of your lungs each time his thighs smacked against the curve of your ass. “Wanna be fucked all the time.”
“Know you do, baby, I’d take such good care of you.” He slapped your ass and nipped at your collarbone. “Make you so fucking stupid, just my dumb little baby.”
He kept talking like that, driving your body up and down on his cock like it took no effort at all even as you were covered in sweat. You weren’t sure how much time had passed, but pressure started building in your balls and in your core and as soon as he told you to come you were doing it with a bitten off yelp. Thor grinned when it happened, kissing you again and shoving his tongue down your throat while your brain went to some sweet, fluffy place that you found you enjoyed very much.
Then you were on your back, somehow. You didn’t totally remember how you got there but when you looked up your rock god was leaning over you and grunting while he slammed his cock into your sensitive little hole, and that was a sight and sound you found you enjoyed very much. It was disappointing that I find that you didn’t have the strength to wrap your legs around his waist like you wanted, but he didn’t seem to mind and you were still getting the life fucked out of you so it only bothered you for a minute.
“Greedy fucking boy, what’s that, three?” Thor chuckled when a thin drool of cum leaked from the tip of your cock when you came again unbidden, groaning when you squeezed him even tighter and made his eyes roll back. “Yeah, Jesus fuck you’re good. Such a pretty little slut. Fuck, I can’t wIt to fuck yiu raw? Bet you love being full of cum.” He barked out a laugh when you nodded eagerly. “Knew it. Bet you’ll let me take whatever I want whenever I want, pretty thing. Oh my fucking god, this little pussy is so fucking tight. Shit… ah, fuck!”
Thor leaned down and bit your neck when he throbbed inside you, grunting while his hips stuttered against your ass and he filled the condom. You couldn’t take it anymore, the pleasure of having been used so thoroughly sending you to nirvana as you wailed and your poor cock twitched feebly against your abs while you blacked out. He kissed you when you just mumbled stupidly while your eyes rolled in your head, making sure he was very careful when he pulled out so he didn’t overwhelm you.
“That’s it, what a good boy.” Thor smiled when you purred in response and stretched your whole body, a look of absolute bliss on your face while you gave him a sloppy grin before he headed to the bathroom to fill the tub. “Oh yeah, think I’m definitely gonna have to keep you around. May even introduce you to Carol when she’s back in town.”

What are your favorite Beifong family headcanons?
Oooh that's a great ask. I have a lot of headcanons and I'm pretty sure I've talked about them a lot at least a few times, but I've tried to condense them as best I could!
I've rambled about my headcanons surrounding seismic sense but here's some more. The twins and Huan learnt seismic sense very early on in their lives and were provably encouraged to lean into it. Huan particularly has very well developed seismic sense. To the point where it makes him uncomfortable and he tends to shy away from using it by wearing thick socks or shoes.
When Kuvira first arrived to Zaofu, she didn't really get along with Baatar Jr. I can see Baatar Jr being very protective of Opal, since they were the two nonbenders of the family. I can see him not looking too kindly at whom he saw as his mother's attempt at having a "better daughter".
Kuvira and the twins are permanent parts of Suyin's dance troupe. (Canon for Kuvira.)
Tumblr media
Due to not having much interaction with people outside the family, the Beifong kids are/were super close. Which leads to even more pain as they slowly untangle and mature.
They were also very close with the staff that worked at the manor and other of their family friends, due to this being their only social interactions outside family. Aiwei and the Chef (he only calls himself chef and never reveals his real name cause he used to be a pirate and is wanted in all four nations) are basically surrogate uncles to the kids.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It having been just the six of them, i can see it being hard for them to fully interact with new people.
Huan wanted to be a doctor as a kid and pretended to do operations on his siblings. Their father, a renown architect, even built them a little play hospital. The other Beifongs... weren't fans.
Kuvira enjoys bubble baths. That's it.
Wei collects crystals and cool looking rocks, similairly to how Su collects meteors. He's a nerd about it too. He has several opals and whenever he's in an argument with Opal he will dramatically move them to the back of his collection.
One of my fave silly headcanons/theories is Baatar Sr being Suki and Sokka's kid. Like, I know it's very unlikely, but it is a lovely idea in my head and I could ramble about it all day. I don't see a lot of people talking about it. I see plenty of people using Suyin's sons looking like Sokka as proof that Su is a Tokka baby, however the Beifong boys actually resemble their father a lot. Also I have plenty headcanons around this idea and Suki would be an epic grandma. Kyoshi warrior Opal (and the twins). Living in my head rent free. Forever.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wing and Opal formed a little book club and like reading together/talking about books they've read. Their siblings aren't allowed to join. One time Kuvira and Wei crashed the little meeting and Wing was so offended he pretended to run away and join the circus.
When they were children, Kuvira was the ringleader for sure. She'd take the much more well behaved Beifong kids on wild adventures, after which they'd come back to the house covered in mud.
Wing is hard if hearing. Comes from that one scene where he sent Lin and Su to their deaths after misshearing Mako.
Tumblr media
Aiwei was the first one to encourage Huan to pursue his artistic talents and most of Huan's first works are still in Aiwei's house.
Wei is named after Aiwei, but they already had a Juniour in the family, so he was named an abbreviation of his namesake.
Aiwei ultimately regrets betraying the Beifongs, to teh point where his nightmares in the Fog of Lost souls are about the Beifongs.
Tumblr media
Can't believe Zaheer sent the only confirmed gay man ever shown on screen to super hell. Homophobia at its finest
Ugh you don't know how happy getting asks about the Beifong family makes me. Sorry if these were more focused on the Zaofu crew, I know they're not as popular as Lin and Toph but they are my faves.

Note: Ten favorite monsters, part eight. Previous part. The Point is a seriously underrated movie. Catch it if you’re into stuff like The Phantom Tollbooth or Yellow Submarine.
1. Oblina from Aaahh!!! Real Monsters
Tbh, I didn’t really watch this show. Rugrats was and is my fave Nicktoon, so my first exposure to ARM was crossover episode “Ghost Story.” (That, “The Last Babysitter,” and Rugrats in general has great juvenile horror.) But I have a soft spot for female monsters that have “girly” features while still giving grotesque.   
2-4. Anglerfish-esque monsters
Dark spider spirit from Avatar: The Legend of Korra: Some kind of arachnid, anyway. Don’t let her teethies fool you. This lady will just yeet anyone spirited away into the Fog of Lost Souls, she hates people so much.  
Grand Fisher from Bleach: The Bleach Wiki describes him as “resembl[ing] a giant hamster.” Which is great. Didn’t even think of that. Rats aren’t the only rodents that can scary. But he’s included here because I love monsters that mimic victims’ loved ones.
Frogfish from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: SpongeBob has other anglers, like two cute ones from “Rock Bottom,” one of my fave episodes. As with Grand Fisher, I love how the Frogfish uses a biological dummy of sorts as a lure. In this case, its tongue. Bringing to mind the Alaskan Bull Worm. 
5. Old Dark Frog from Days with Frog and Toad
This and Bony-Legs were seasonal delights for teeny Tawney. The illustration where he's looming, nay, towering over a chilled Frog was so hair-raising.
6. Brain Eating Meteor from The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy
Pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Has one of the best villain songs ever. Thank you, Voltaire.
7. the Demons of Ignorance from The Phantom Tollbooth
It’s like with the Blue Meanies where I can’t pick just one! There’s the Terrible Trivium, of course. But also the barely-there-but-will-bring-you-fear Threadbare Excuse, draconic Two-Faced Hypocrite, etc. 
8. the Pointed Man from The Point
Trickster who sounds like a shaken clock. Tumblr sexyman candidate right there. 
9. Sadako Yamamura from Ringu
Screenshot’s from Ringu 2. The visage creeping after Mai as she climbs with Yoichi out of the well is based on the forensic reconstruction of Sadako’s corpse.
Localizations are hit or miss for me, but I’ll admit The Ring 2002 was more entertaining. However, I think Sadako’s generally a more interesting villain than Samara.
While Ringu notability took inspiration from Videodrome, it’s its own unique spin combined with Japanese ghost lore.
10. the Tingler from The Tingler
A literal spine-tingler, living on people’s vertebrae. Emits a cardiac, pulsating sound when free roaming and swells after gorging itself on fear. 
Note: Eventually, I will try reading the Ring series. I read more murder mysteries than straight-up horror. Might add other Aaah!!! Real monsters to future lists if I ever watch the show proper.

Ask game! Okay, I'm curious about your Fenris songs, and your Isabela songs? Can be shippy with Hawke or just them on their own!
AH! Thank you! Two of my all-time faves. Sorry for how long as fuck this is. It was hard to choose.
I have a whole Fenris Playlist because I can't get over him. Here's a few key songs:
Rain in Soho by the Mountain Goats- This song just has SO MANY primo Fenris lines and it has this anguished chasing feeling all the way through that HITS. Every major fanfic I've written is titled after this song and I still have dozens of good lines left to steal. If I had less self control, I would just list five of six Mountain Goats songs here.
No One is Ever Going to Want Me by Giles Corey- It's about the viiiiibe. A depression anthem for the ages that builds to a very real anguished dispair. This song will tear out your heart and ruin your day.
Color in your cheeks by the Mountain Goats - Quintessential Fenris in the Fog Warriors song. I think a lot about this time in his life and the way he experienced community and healing for the first time with all these other desperate people. The lyrics hit perfect for me.
Mountain Man by Liz Cooper - My post-game happiness song for Fenris and Hawke. I feel like all Fenris wants is time. It's a song about growing old together, about being with the one person who you really want to be with. It's such a gentle, sweet song about being home with someone. I also think there's like this undercurrent of genuine attraction in the song that isn't often there when someone is singing about their love of a man. I just vibe with it for them.
Isabela also has a whole Playlist, lmao. I love her.
Bitch by Meredith Brooks- if you can't vibe to this song, we can't be friends I'm sorry. One of the few songs chosen less because I think it suits her and more because I think she would absolutely rock out to it.
Dixon's Girl by Dessa- A song about not really knowing how to support other women and rooting for them to get out of their shitty abusive relationships. I kinda see it as Isabela rooting for people like her but not really being ready to actually help, which is kind of an unfortunate reality her character struggles with. The line between protecting yourself and doing what's right.
Bad Reputation by Joan Jett- If it's wrong, I don't want to be right. She doesn't give a damn about her bad reputation. Nor should she.
Handle with Care by Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins- Fenibela or Hawkebella ship song. A song about how every shitty thing possible has happened to her and now she needs patience and gentleness to be able to fall for someone again. It's also a little about being open to love again. It's nice.

-> LATE SUMMER GOTHIC AESTHETICS
once again tagged by @galeboettichergf ! tyvm for tagging me in these
tagging whoever feels like doing this
Tumblr media
let's go with one of my fave gta babes
ROAD TRIP BURNOUT
bloodshot eyes, flickering neon motel signs, aviator sunglasses, magic 8 balls, recurrent dreams of grey aliens, beaded curtains, dusty denim and incense smoke, sepia desert vistas, playlists of 1960s rock songs, coded messages in television static, comets in the night sky, fake ids, gas station snacks, jesus bobble heads, split lips, patchouli, paranoia between friends.
SOUTHERN CEMETERY
magnolia blossoms, chipping white porch swings, spanish moss, suffocating humidity, faded photographs of lacy weddings, tire tracks in mud, mausoleum angels, family trees, the yellow-green eyes of alligators, repressed childhood memories bubbling to the surface, broken porcelain dolls, legs covered with mosquito bites, blood promises, crucifixes and barbed wire.
INTER-DIMENSIONAL PARK RANGER
the yellow eye shine of an unseen animal, circling turkey vultures, unnatural fluctuations in the passage of time, daddy long legs in rotting logs, distorted backwards speech through a walkie talkie, unexplainable antler shrines, coniferous mountain horizons, star-like bonfire sparks whirling in an indigo night, nests of infant barn owls, claw marks in tent fabric.
HAUNTED BOARDWALK
rickety ferris wheels, carnival lights through fog, saltwater taffy and tarot card readings, childhood best-friends, thunderstorms over the sea, tear-streaked face paint, chipping animatronics partially submerged in brackish water, ill-fated games of truth or dare, vintage circus posters boasting mermaids and wolf men, underwater caves marked with a skull and crossbones.

Heats - Omega!Itachi Uchiha
-/-\- -/-\- -/-\- -/-\-
A/N: This was a request. Heats are my fave to write.
Warnings: heat, nsfwish things, mentions of abuse because I will take all chances to talk about how the Uchiha are fucked up
-/-\- -/-\- -/-\- -/-\-
Tumblr media
-/-\- -/-\- -/-\- -/-\-
- Itachi’s heats are sporadic and on a timetable of their own. He’ll have a year where he goes into heat every month like clockwork but the next year, he’ll have one or two and be good for the rest of the year. His biology is all out of wack. The excessive amount of suppressants he consumed while in Anbu to avoid his father’s scorn, his own questionable genetics (the Uchiha family tree reads like a stump), his birth control, and his illness all play a role in his weird heat schedule.
The amount of time they last is also random. He can have heats that last a full week and he can have heats that last 12 hours. You never know what you are going to get. 
- His heats also tend to be more painful than pleasurable so while both of you enjoy a little rough sex here and there, you have to be super careful during his heats. He is very sensitive and you can’t thrust the way you instinctively want to. You have to prep him with lube because he doesn’t produce enough slick and you are only allowed to rock and grind once you enter him. No pulling out and thrusting back in, only gentle rocking until you knot. 
Don’t get me wrong. Its nice. Its different but its nice. Itachi likes it too since he’s a mush and prefers soft lovemaking over rough fucking during heats anyway. He finds mindless fucking during rut and heat to be distasteful. As far as he’s concerned, this is a time for both partners to be vulnerable with each other and it should be treated as another form of intimacy.
He also likes when you are resting above him, pressing your lips against his sweaty face and crooning until the fog lifts from behind his eyes. His favorite is when he comes too and he’s full, knotted, and you are right there, waiting for him to return to you. It reminds him that he is not just loved, but treasured.
- Usually Itachi gets about an hour warning before the heat hits and he has long gotten past feeling embarrassed about letting you know. He will tell you and you both will disappear into a hotel (if you are on a mission) or your room (if you are at base).
- Even if you aren’t a ninja, you go on every single mission with him and Kisame. Kisame gets a friend that talks more and Itachi gets his Alpha. You don’t get involved either way, showing up to their location like a normal tourist before them and leaving after them and taking on no tasks that aren’t making sure they sleep and eat.
If Itachi is feel particularly spicy, he’ll rub some of his slick on his fingers and then use that hand to grab your face to bring you into a kiss. He knows the effect it has on you, even though you’ll be ‘scolding’ him later for wasting slick. He won’t care because he’ll be under you and hanging off your knot.
- His heats are spend in his nest and nowhere else. He will not move to the bed for sex. He will not move to the bathroom for sex. He will only be knotted in his nest with you shielding his body from the rest of the room. The nest also needs to be in a place where three sides are blocked off. He only wants one entrance and that entrance needs to be able to see the rest of the room and the ensuite bathroom. You have pre-arranged your furniture to acclimate these needs
- Itachi slowly descends from his own mind the longer he is in heat. Part of it is because he is dissociating because heats are very much an Omega thing and Fugaku fucked his mind up and part of it is that he isn’t used to feeling so many sensations and he feels vulnerable. He relies 100% on you to feed him, water him, wipe him down, bathe him and keep everyone out of the room. 
You are not allowed to leave the room or close the door to the en-suite bathroom either. It doesn’t matter if you are using said bathroom for bodily function purposes, the door stays open so he can see you. His object permanence does not exist. If you disappear behind a wall or a door, you are gone and Itachi will panic. 
Frequent check ins are in order to make sure he can still tell you no. You have stopped sex because Itachi could not give you an answer. He needs a bit of gentling to come to but as long as he can tell you his name, your name, the date of your mating anniversary, and the location of your real mating bite, he’s fine.
- Usually the heats are fine. Nothing goes amiss. But there have been a few occasions when they go sideways. There was a heat where Itachi had floated like he normally does when he cums but instead of coming back to see you over him, he hallucinated and saw strangers. He was tied to a stranger who was telling him that he was disgusting while other strangers watched. He had cheated on his Alpha like some desperate whore. He couldn’t move. Couldn’t fight. Just laid there and allowed these Alphas to hurt him. 
You watched it play on his face, confused at first, and ended up having to pin him while he cried out for you to help and tried to thrash because he was dangerously close from ripping your knot from his body. You had to cover his eyes because he activated his Sharingan and you were not about to fall into a genjutsu knot deep in your Omega. 
It took an hour of gentling and scenting to get him to come back from the dark place. He was damn near inconsolable, apologizing for ‘cheating’ on you and that he didn’t mean it and please don’t leave. You reassure him that he didn’t, you were the one with him the entire time and that his mind was being really cruel. 
You told him that you would never share him. You would never invite someone into the room or to share your nest. You would never allow someone to talk to him like that. You would never have him be in pain like that. You suspect its the price of using Tsukuyomi with the Mangeyko Sharingan and it cements in your brain that the Uchiha clan was not only cursed, but demented. The side effects are fucking terrifying and they thought this was fine. That it was okay for children to have access to this. 
- Itachi is talkative during his heat and disgustingly affectionate. He is much more open about how much he loves you. Cooing up at you as you’re rocking into him that he loves you, worships you, would do anything for you. You followed him with nothing but blind faith and he is so grateful. He begs you to cum because he can’t until he knows his Alpha has made use of his body. He needs to feel your satisfaction to get any of his own. 
He also really likes to say your name. He rarely ever calls you Alpha, preferring to use your real name.
- Almost no refractory period between rounds. When he comes back from the after-orgasm fog, you have two seconds to start up again before the heat kicks him in the face. Most times, you aren’t even done with the first round, knot locked firmly inside of him, so you have to get him off that way. 
- The end of his heat is your favorite because he regains some strength. He is usually a bit too sore to keep being penetrated so you will start using your mouths and hands more to get each other off but the urgency is dead so you both can take your time. Towards the very end, when he can feel the urges receding, he likes to take a bath with you, put his filthy nest in the hamper, and curl up naked in your shared bed and just touch. He wants you to touch him and he wants to touch you. It helps ground him back into reality. 
- Itachi struggles with helping you through your rut if it matches up with his heat. You spend most of it doing a bunch of mutual masturbation and wait until you are on the cusp on knotting before you slip inside him. Rut!Y/N knows when your Omega can handle your rut and when they can’t and it adapts (so you don’t want to hear that Alphas can’t control themselves. They can.). 
Itachi is a bit self conscious about this (because what Omega can’t handle a rut during their heat?) and once asked if you needed to go find a rut partner. Thinking of you having sex with another Omega was literal torture for him but he would have made himself be okay with it.
If there was ever a time you wanted to yell at him, it was this time. He wasn’t in heat so you fucked him against your bed, his nest, the bathroom counter, and in the shower until he admitted that he didn’t want that, he wouldn’t be okay with it, your body and your knot are his and he doesn’t want to share, and that he is sorry for suggesting it. He has never brought it up since. 
-/-\- -/-\- -/-\- -/-\-
“Oh, can you feel that Itachi? I’m stuck,” you rumble, rocking forward once and dragging his hips with you, adsorbing the keening moan he let out at the motion as his cock spurts on his stomach weakly. “You aren’t going anywhere lovely.” Another orgasm rolls through you and you grind your hips against his until it ends, the twinges of over-stimulation causing your legs to shake. 
You purr as you come down, leaning down do brush your lips against your mate’s sweaty face. His dark eyes were half-lidded and foggy, fucked out. Little trembles wracked his pale body and you adjusted so you were planking above him, his legs raised higher to accommodate your tie.
“’Tachi,” you murmur for no reason other than to say his name. A small chirp answers you and you press a kiss against his panting mouth. His hole is still pulsing around you, milking you for all you have to give and he shudders as he experiences a dry orgasm.
“Y/N?” his voice is strained as his eyes flick around before settling on you again. His eyes soften when they meet yours and he leans in to kiss you, weak arms pulling you closer. 
“I’m here baby,” you whisper, rocking the slightest bit in emphasis, “I’m the one inside of you. Its just us. Me and you. In the nest. In our room.”
He nods, pressing little kisses along your face and jaw before nipping at your chin. You push his sweaty hair back away from his face, purring as he licks and nips and kisses along the skin he can reach. 
“Where are you, lovely?” you ask, tugging his head away to look at him in the eyes.
He lets out a very faint whine at the motion but looks at you anyway, “Its still there. I think I have another 6 hours or so. Not going to be a long one.”
You grin, rocking into him the tiniest bit, “Well, then we should make the most of it, don’t you think?”

The Villain and His Therapist - Pt 3
Part 1, Part 2
TW: PTSD episode
Juliet jerked awake, bolting upright in bed. Her breathing came in shallow gasps as she strained to catch her breath. Unease crawled under her skin like spiders and it made her hands shake.
She closed her eyes, working to quell the roar of her thoughts.
It was just a dream. Nightmares are a perfectly normal trauma response. Your body is just telling you what you need to heal from and releasing the effects of that trauma in the way it best knows how. Just a bad dream. Nightmares have no bearing on reality.
Only, it wasn't just a dream.
Her stomach twisted, plunging cold as she remembered the weight of Supervillain's scrutiny, the molten burning of his voice. Any time she stood still, any time she closed her eyes, she was back there again, tied to that chair...
The nightmares still danced behind her closed eyelids. She opened them again, rubbing her face.
When Villain stabbed Supervillain, it didn't sever anything vital. He lived. He was taken to the hospital...where he then escaped as soon as his condition stabilized.
Juliet was promptly thrown into Witness Protection, carted off to stay in a white-picketed house in a very normal, middle-class suburb far from home. She was given a new name for the time being: Jessica Stewart. It hardly held the same fairytale charm as Juliet Meadows, and she found herself missing the way it sounded on Villain's smirking lips.
She blinked as the thought registered, catching her off guard.
To her, the safe house felt empty and cold. While her home was filled with colorful trinkets and art on every wall, this one was bland and sterile in comparison. Clean white walls, wood furnishings. The lack of decor made it feel hollow. In the night, it felt as lonely and unnerving as a graveyard. The walls were thick with shadows. The darkness seemed to swallow her whole.
With a shaky breath, Juliet flicked the light on. A gentle glow washed over the walls, illuminating the space. Panic still clawed at her, so she looked around, dissecting every corner for anything that may be amiss.
She froze as she heard a light plink against the window. She stared at the glass, heart jumping into her throat.
Plink, plink.
Forcing her limbs to cooperate, she slid off of the bed to her feet. She padded across the space with tentative steps until she could peek out the window.
Her blood ran cold as her gaze fixed on a figure standing below. What if it was Supervillain- What if he'd found her and he-
Wait...
That wasn't Supervillain.
Opening her window, Juliet peered down at Villain. Moonlight pooled around him, highlighting his face enough for her to be sure it was him. She released a shuddering breath.
"Villain. How did you find me? What are you doing?" She blinked. "Are you...did you just throw rocks at my window?"
His smile caught the silver light as he tossed what looked like a pebble up into the air, then caught it again without looking. "It seemed fitting. You are Juliet, aren't you? I saw your light turn on, figured you could use checking in on."
She smiled slightly. "No one's supposed to know where I am. How did you find me?"
Villain took his hands out of his pockets to spread his arms wide. When he spoke, his breath clouded in the crisp air. "Doctor Meadows, I'm offended you have to ask that. I have my ways."
"You shouldn't be here."
He flashed a grin. "I do a lot of things I shouldn't."
She studied Villain, who looked up expectantly at her. With a sigh, she conceded. "Come around to the door."
Juliet shut the window and walked to the front of the house, opening the door. Villain stepped inside, his jacket slick with moisture, his hair damp and tousled by drizzle and fog.
He seemed to fill the space, making the room look smaller. In the dark entryway, he resembled his brother to an unnerving degree. The way the shadows caught the hollows of his cheeks and silhouetted the angle of his jaw.
She abruptly stepped back from him and turned the light on, chasing the shadows away. Swallowing, she looked at him again.
Villain's head was tilted slightly, observing her. As always, his defined attention prickled her senses.
She pictured the last time she'd seen him. His brother's blood spattered against his collar--blood he'd spilled for her--after Supervillain had suggested he loved her.
Juliet's vision swam and the world swayed fuzzy.
Warm hands caught her waist, steadying her. "Juliet?"
Villain's voice was uncharacteristically soft, sending butterflies swooping in her stomach.
"I..."
She sucked in a shaky breath, waiting for the world to narrow into focus again; into something solid and real and safe like it should be. It didn't. Her hands trembled.
"I...I can't breathe."
Juliet was distantly aware of Villain scooping her into his arms and carrying her to the couch, setting her down with care. He knelt in front of her. Her ears rang.
She heard the villain's voice as if from underwater.
"It's okay, you're alright. I'm here. Hey. Juliet."
The haze cleared a little and her eyes shot to him at the mention of her name. Villain brushed her hair back, his touch the only thing keeping her rooted in reality.
"You're okay," he repeated softly once he had her attention. He held her gaze. "Breathe in and out with me. Like this." He exaggerated slow breaths.
She mimicked him, keeping her eyes trained on him, zeroing in on the touch of his skin against her temple. She felt untethered, like she could watch herself float away.
"Okay, let's...let's try a grounding exercise," he said as if reading her mind. "Can you squeeze my hand?" He held his palm out to her.
Juliet took hold of it, giving it a squeeze. Her grip was weak and quivering. Villain ran his free hand up and down her arm to keep her present.
"Squeeze it harder. Twice more."
She obeyed, her grasp more firm this time.
"Good," Villain praised, his voice a velvet purr. A shiver trickled down her spine.
He led her through a few more grounding techniques until she was calmer. The last one, she'd taught to him herself mere weeks ago.
Juliet smiled slightly, still feeling a bit numb around the edges, but much more like herself. More human.
"Who's supposed to be whose therapist here?"
Villain offered a gentle smile and it flooded her veins with warmth.
"You were kidnapped, Doctor Meadows. I don't think being a therapist makes you immune to trauma."
She looked at him as he tracked her with attentive concern. Villain frowned and reached out, gently tracing his thumb over the healing slash that marred her cheek. His thumb dipped down to brush her bottom lip.
Juliet's cheeks burned. "Villain."
"Juliet," he countered, his typical cocky playfulness dimmed to a murmur.
His hand lingered on her cheek. Their gazes interlocked.
"Stay," she whispered.
Villain's smile made her dizzy all over again. "Always."

Come Into My Arms
anime/manga: jujutsu kaisen
character: no name used so it's up to who you want it to be
words: 569
pronouns: none
request: none
notes: this is pretty self indulgent because i havent been feeling my best lately and i honestly do need someone in my life to hold me and tell me it'll be okay. I wrote this thinking about a genshin character but im posting it under jjk tags bc im a jjk blog and honestly it does fit some of my faves in jjk thus why i didnt state any name in it bc so many possibilites.
not proof read
song rec: come into my arms - november ultra but it's this one tik tok with harmonies
genre: kind of angsty but fluff??
warnings: intrusive thoughts mention, bad mental health implied, it's really self indulgent so yeah may not be to your liking
Emptiness was the only thing you’ve been feeling lately, you didn’t have the heart to try and do anything anymore. It was august, one of the hottest month of the year and yet you were feeling cold, your sadness was such that you were physically feeling it, all you could do was lay in bed wrapped in your favourite blanket desperately trying to grasp the little bit of warmth it would give you. Your pillow was wet with your tears, it was uncomfortable to the touch and yet you couldn’t bring yourself to do anything about it, moving your hands seemed like such a chore to yourself at this moment that you would rather lay there on your dampened pillow than get out of your cocoon.
You didn’t know how long you stayed like this, staring at your wall, vision occasionally getting blurred by your tears, when suddenly a hand in your hair brought you out of your trance. But you still you didn’t budge, you weren’t really up to talking to anyone right now, not even your lover.
“Did you eat today?”Their voice softly said, only to be met with a deafening silence. “I take this as a no then. I will go fetch you something, I will be back.” They continued, their gentle tone never wavering before you heard footsteps making their way out of the room.
You had no idea how long you were left with your loud and intrusive thoughts, but it was enough to have a fresh set of tears start cascading your cheeks. You tried your best to muffle your cries, not wanting to alarm your lover, your brain screaming at you to be silent and to stop being a bother. But it seemed you were unsuccessful because in a split of seconds you felt arms surrounding you before they started to rock you back and forth, as one would do to a child.
“It’s okay, let it go, let everything out.” Your lover voice whispered in your ear, but in an instant your intrusive thoughts were back, screaming at you for being a burden again, telling you to choke on your tears.
“Focus on my voice, only listen to me.” Their voice interrupted your inner one, as if they could hear it. “You’re not a burden, it’s okay. You are allowed to feel sad too, it’s okay, it will be okay.” They continued, your cries only intensifying at your lover’s words.
You both stayed in this position for a while, your lover softly whispering sweet nothings into your ear, as well as words of validation while you cried to your heart content, the weight on it suddenly lifting up a bit.
“I’m sorry.” You hiccuped, your voice hoarse with all the crying.
“You don’t have to be.” They said, laying a kiss gently on the crown of your head. “You have the right to be weak too, I will always be there to hold you when it happens.”
With these few words the fog inside your brain finally started dissipating. You weren’t stupid, you knew this was only the start and the emptiness won’t suddenly vanished, but it at least was a first step into the right direction. And no matter what your brain could try and tell you, deep down you knew your lover would always be there to catch you if you ever were to fall again, or so you hoped.

what's your fave yunmeng shuangjie​ scene/moment (or one of your faves) and why? (this is partly to give you an excuse to talk about them because I love it when you talk about them but also I'm curious to know :D )
Omg how about ALL OF THEM??? God how does one even begin to choose?? Childish bickering over soup and freshly caught fish! Reaching around their indulgent and highly amused big sister just to swat at each other! All those shared silent judgmental glances when they have to convey to each other how fucking stupid everyone else (read: Jin Zixuan) is! Wei Wuxian shouting frantically from across the fog-covered lake, Jiang Cheng, are you okay?! Jiang Cheng! Where are you?! The utter sibling energy of Wei Wuxian trapped in a cave with every junior of his generation and addressing only Jiang Cheng when the ground shakes because who else would he talk to? That love language of I’m going out of my way to personally bring you soup while making sure to tell you to stop whining like a fucking baby. Wei Wuxian’s fucking face every time he looks at Jiang Cheng throughout the entire massacre of Lotus Pier and golden core transfer arcs. THE OCTOPUS HUG!!!!!!!!! That heartbreaking transition from let me angrily and impulsively stab a rock with my eyes closed to let me watch in horror as my brother falls to his death because no no nonono. Jiang Cheng’s expression of naked pride borderlining grief when he watches Wei Wuxian play Chenqing for the first time in sixteen years.
And let’s not forget the sheer dumbassery of MUTUAL SAD FUCKING COURTYARD PINING! I genuinely love (2) absolute losers.
But okay, if I really have to pick a moment, it’s probably the scene in Lotus Pier after they come home from the Wen Indoctrination where Wei Wuxian promises Jiang Cheng they will be the Twin Heroes of Yunmeng. It is such an extraordinary depiction of how good they can be together at their strongest and most well-adjusted. Wei Wuxian is such a good fucking brother here. Look, Jiang Fengmian may have never spared Jiang Cheng more than a glance of indifference, may have been incapable of even looking at Jiang Cheng when he says well done, but Wei Wuxian fucking loved him! He loved Jiang Cheng so damn much.
He attempts to redirect Jiang Fengmian’s attention onto Jiang Cheng’s extremely well-deserved achievements again and again. He is extremely uncomfortable throughout the entire horror show that is Madam Yu vs Jiang Fengmian. He immediately runs after Jiang Cheng even though he was literally unconscious with a fever barely half a second ago. He ignores Jiang Cheng yelling at him to go lay down properly because they need to set things straight and don’t listen to that nonsense. Wei Wuxian insisting on talking and saying shit like let’s be honest and don’t hide things so sulkily in your heart. (Oh my fucking god, you guys, when communication was still a thing, and both of these inept dumbasses trying their hardest to talk even when they’re bad at it. How swiftly things changed after this.)
Wei Wuxian coaxing Jiang Cheng out of his misery with an arm around his shoulder. The way Jiang Cheng leans into him and soaks in that comfort like a sponge. Wei Wuxian changing tactics from hey, I’m sure your dad loves you actually to it doesn’t matter because I’ll be by your side. In a short series of words, Wei Wuxian says I will stay with you. He says I choose you even if your father never will. He says I believe in you and I’m here and I love you. Every single thing about this scene hurts. Look how deeply they loved each other. How much Jiang Cheng needed to hear those words. How much Wei Wuxian needed to say them. How much this promise meant to both of them before the world decided to burn down around them.
Let’s be brothers in our next lives, says Wei Wuxian. As if their souls would find each other again. Because as long as the two of us are alive in this world, we will always meet.

Ignite the Water
warning a head of time for injuries related to burns
I won’t get too graphic, but it will have some people getting badly burned
anyway this is for @sammywolfgirl siren au
this is just a random idea of something that could happen, just a fic bug that wouldn’t leave me alone
and maybe a way for Neon J and his boys to earn the trust of some more of the pod
I also need to stop picking on my May, but she’s one of my fave characters so 😔
--------------------------------
Mayday had learned her lesson a long time ago that not all humans can be trusted. And yet she couldn’t help her curiosity, though she was at least more cautious now; observing first and then trying to find out if they’re friendly.
It’s worked so far, given that Neon J and his boys were perfectly fine. Just stranded till they could all their parts for their.. radio was it? May had no clue what a radio was but it was clearly important enough to get them un-stranded. So while certain sirenfolk still avoided them, they did at least keep an eye for the missing pieces.
If only to get them out of here faster.
‘Well to each their own I suppose.’ Mayday though to herself as she swam towards the island the humans were on.
They were a fun group to talk to, and besides, she had found some human things. She had them wrapped in a bag she had found. She had no idea if it was any of the parts they needed, but might as well check. Getting close she decided to peak her head over the water to make sure no other humans were nearby. Upon seeing the coast was clear, she headed to the shore where she could see two of the boys, Eloni and Haym, wandering around.
Resurfacing once again with a small splash she called out to them. “Hey guys!”
The two turned around as got as close to the shore as she could. “I found these things. No idea if it’s any of the stuff you need but”
Haym took the bag from her outstretched hand and started rummaging through it. “Hmm, I’m not sure, a lot of this is so covered in algae it’s hard to tell what it is. I’ll take it to the captain so he can see.”
Haym walked off further into the island, leaving Mayday alone with Eloni. He was the more quiet one of the group. But May though he was fun once you got to know him.
“So any luck finding any of the pieces yourself?”
“Not really.” Eloni shrugged. “We did find some scraps of our ship we might be able to use on the radio, though the Captain isn’t sure yet.”
“Hmm.” Mayday couldn’t help but feel a bit bad for them.
She couldn’t even imagine what it would be like to be separated from pretty much everyone you knew like this, to the point where you couldn’t even call for help, much less them.
“Well, I’m sure you’ll get that radio thing of yours fixed in no time.”
“Yeah, I guess.”
“Hey Eloni! Get over here the captain needs our help!” one of the brothers called from far away.
“Oh. Uh, sorry May I gotta go.”
“It’s fine! I’ll keep an eye for more parts.”
May backflipped into deeper waters and swam off under the sea. She had no desire to go home to Zuke yet, as she was quite restless and wanted to do some exploring. As she swam further out into the ocean, she kept looking for any pieces that may have drifted out this far. So far, no luck. As she swam further and further out, she began to doubt even more that she would find pieces. After all, they didn’t start having problems out this far.
Mayday was beginning to get ready to head back when a sudden sound caught her attention. Glancing around the ocean and straining her ears, she listened. again she heard the sound, and felt the vibrations. Straight ahead. She swam a ways out trying to see what the commotion was. There. A large shape was sitting on top of the water and, upon surfacing, May saw that it was a very large ship.
Keeping only half hear head above water to make her hard to spot she checked out the ship. She saw no fishing nets on this ship, so they weren’t fishers. No weapons like harpoons either so that’s good. A lot of boxes though, and the lower part of the ship itself was huge. Much bigger than a normal ship.
‘I wonder what’s in that part?’ May thought to herself.
“What are you doing out here?”
May startled at the voice and almost jumped out of the water. Glancing behind her she could see part of Sayu’s group behind her, Tila and Dodo, as well as Sayu herself.
“You have got to stop doing that.” May muttered. “And I was looking for more of their parts.” She gestured at the island behind her.
“Out here?” Dodo asked tilting his head.
“I got restless” May shrugged her shoulders “I was going to turn around when I heard something and found that ship over there.”
Seeing the looks are their faces, May had to bite back a retort. She couldn’t blame after what happened last time she was being reckless.
“I'm not going near it, besides I think they’re just carrying human stuff to others. I don’t see any nets or weapons so... What did Subatomic call them?”
“Cargo ships I think?” Tila supplied.
“Yeah I think that was it...but....” Mayday trailed off. “Should we tell the guys on the island? I mean if they can get those humans’ attention then they wouldn’t need to fix their radio right?”
“That is true but wouldn’t that be dangerous for us?” Dodo asked.
“Maybe if we just stayed really low under water they won’t see us?” Tilas suggested.
“I can go tell everyone underneath to stay down low. I’ll swing by the island first and tell that captain though.” Sayu said, and was off in a splash.
Sayu, like May, was one of the fastest swimmers around here. She’d have the word spread in just a few minutes.
“I guess we should leave too” May started to follow Tila and Dodo when some movement caught the corner of her eye.
Turning around she saw another boat this one much smaller.
“What is it?”
Mayday answered Tila “There’s another boat now.”
Tila and Dodo glanced over her shoulder to see the small boat moving along the waters towards the larger boat.
“Huh. Where’d they come from?” Dodo questioned.
“And what are they doing?” May asked.
This boat was odd to say the least. It was moving around slowly, staying behind rocks, and using the deep fog bank that had rolled in to stay fairly hidden. If it weren’t for that fact siren’s had good hearing and could feel vibrations in the water, they probably wouldn’t have noticed it. It putted around till it finally started to get much closer to the ship.
“....you two head back home. I’m gonna spy and see if I can’t figure out what they’re up to.”
May then dove into the waters with a quiet splash and began to move closer to the two vessels. Keeping enough of a distance she watched from below to find a safe place to surface. She was able to find a bunch of rocks that would fully conceal her, but still let her see. Peeking just above the water, she could now see the small boat better. It was just a basic boat, though it had a strange large container on the back of it.
She watched as the two humans on the boat pulled on a hose attached to the container and lifted it up to the big ship. The end had a sharp bit on the end. Mayday tilted her head in confusion.
“What are they doing?”
Again May found herself jumping at Tila’s sudden appearance. The young siren had a terrible habit of sneaking up on others. Not that May was better mind you, at least according to Zuke.
“I told you to go home!”
“No.” was Dodo’s only reply.
May raised a brow at him and sighed. “then stay down and be quiet, I don’t know if they can hear us from here.”
“Get that thing ready, and be quiet! We don’t need them up there seeing us.”
“You got it boss.”
The human then heaved the hose thing up to the side of the ship, and the sharp bit began to spin. He pressed into the side of the larger ship, until it sunk completely in. It was hard to see what he did next, but whatever it was kept the hose of the side of the ship without having to be held there.
“We need to tell someone I think.”
May nodded to Dodo. “How fast do you two think you can get to hat island to tell Neon J and the others?”
“What about you?” Tila asked.
“I’m gonna keep an eye on them, would rather have you two away from here though.”
The two hesitated, before reluctantly giving in and sinking below the waters.  Mayday turned her attention back to the two suspicious humans, still confused on what they were doing. She could see something moving from the hose to the containers but hose wasn’t sure what.
--------------------------------------------------------
Tila swam with Dodo as fast as she could to the island, hoping Mayday would stay out of sight. The two swam so quickly they didn’t notice the blur that swished past them, nor did they notice it stop and turn back around. The two surfaced near the shore of the island and saw Neon J with all five boys.
“NEON J!”
Said man turned at Dodo’s shout “Yes...um Dodo was it?”
“Yeah but that’s not important, it’s about the ship.”
“Ah yes! Sayu  already told me, we’re working on a flare to get their attention.”
“That’s not we want to talk to you about.” Tila inputted.
“What are you two talking about, I though you all would have gone home.” Sayu swam up behind them, having turned around when she saw them going to the island.
“We saw another boat out there, and spied on it.’
“Tila, Dodo.” there was a worried tone in Sayu’s voice.
“Mayday might have told us to go back, and we might of...not listened?” Dodo sheepishly shrugged his shoulders.
“Anyway she’s still out there watching them, but they snuck up to the big boat and stuck something to the side of it.” Tila continued.
This had Neon’s attention. “What did they do next? What was it they attached?”
“Like, some kind of hose, and it was also connected to a containers. I think it was pulling something out of the ship but I don’t know what.”
Neon J seemed to think for a moment before answering “Oil thieves.”
“Oil?” Sayu asked with a head tilt.
“It’s a human fuel source. Listen one of you definitely needs to warn the sirens to stay low, and another needs to tell Mayday to get out of there. If they mess up and spill that oil, it would be very toxic to you.”
Sayu turned to Tila and Dodo “You go home, and warn the pod. I’ll get Mayday, and this time you do need to listen, do you understand?”
Tila and Dodo nodded, and dived down towards their home. Sayu quickly swam back to where May was to warn her.
Rin turned to Neon J “Captain? what do we do now?”
“Play it by ear soldier. If Sayu and May can get out of there in time we’ll be fine to alert them, but we also don’t want to startle those thieves into spilling the oil.”
Rin simply nodded, while the others exchanged worried glances.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mayday watched as more of whatever was in the ship was moved to their boat.
“We should be done soon. Make sure you have that patch ready, we don’t need them to know we were here.”
“Understood.”
“Mayday!”
The whispered shout got May to spin around, and she found herself face to face with Sayu.
“What are you doing here? I thought you were going to warn the pod.”
“I was when Tila and Dodo told me and the humans what was going on. So I sent them in my place, and I’m here to get you.”
The two sirens were so focused on their conversation, they didn’t notice the human getting ready to remove the hose.
“Get me?” Mayday asked, confused. “What do you mean?”
The hose slipped out of the human’s hands, as a black substance spilled in the water. They two didn’t notice when the other started berating the other’s mistake.
“Neon J says they’re...oil thieves? And that if it spills in the water we’ll be in trouble we need to get away from here!”
The human that dropped the hose fell back, knocking the lantern they had on the boat into the water.
“YOU IDIOT!”
This had the sirens’ attention, and they turned back just i time to see the lantern hit the now black water. It happened in seconds.
“FIRE!” Sayu screeched, as the ocean surface was set ablaze. The two quickly let their rocky alcove to try and run, only to find the oil had spread all over, and so had the fire.
“Oh what do we do?” Sayu asked panicked.
“We gotta find a safe way out! Do you see anywhere where there’s no fire?”
The two looked around desperately, the heat of the fire making their scales out of the water dry up.
“There!”
May looked to where Sayu pointed, where there was a thing, but fire free path out to the ocean. Unfortunately it was only one siren wide and also unfortunately, those humans had drifted over trying to escape the blaze themselves. the two looked at each other, knowing they were going to have to be cutting this close to not only escape the fire, but remain undetected.
“Let’s go”
Sayu nodded and the two dove forward. It wasn’t safe to go underwater nay more, there was so much oil underneath, and May could feel it coating her scales. She pushed Sayu in front, wanting her to get to safety first. The two had to go under briefly to avoid being seen by the humans. The water was thick and murky, breathing it in hurt her gills and eyes, but she pressed forward. Peeking over the water she could see not only were they on the other side of the boat now, but the humans were too focused on the blaze to notice them.
She tapped Sayu and motioned her forward, and the two went to keep moving. but something went wrong. May has no idea what happened, it went so quickly but oil suddenly spilt out from the humans’ boat and soaked her.
May grimaced at the feeling of the thick gross substance, and it was likely why she didn’t notice the fire creeping closer. At least not till her body was in agonizing pain, the oil on her body letting the fire travel up it with ease. She thinks she screamed, not caring if the humans heard her. It hurt. It hurt so bad. The ocean had to much oil in it to put her out.
The next thing May knew she was away from the fire on the water, she thinks Sayu pulled her out before she was shoved under the surface. It took several times before the fire was out, she thinks. It felt lie she was still on fire though, so much of her body burned.
Mayday shook and found her body locking up form the pain, and once again Sayu had to tug her forward. She doesn’t know how long Sayu dragged her. Her eyes and gills stung from the oil, her back and tail hurt so much that the water brushing over it sent spikes of pain along her body.
“WHAT IN THE OCEAN HAPPENED TO YOU TWO?!”
That voice sounded familiar, and May weakly lifted her head to try and see who was approaching. But the oil in her eyes made everything too blurry, and she was just trying not to pass out. She felt hands on her face, and squinting she could vaguely make out Yinu’s mother. The child was no where to be seen as much and Mayday could tell, but it was probably best she didn’t see them like this.
Glancing over she could see Sayu covered in just as much oil, her eyes red and black from the substance. Her gills were black too, and May wondered if that’s what she looked like. A sudden brush against her raw back and her jolt back and writhe in pain.
“I’m sorry but you need to hold still so I can look at you.”
“c-can’t, don’t touch, h-hurts.” May thinks she might have been crying but with so much oil in her eyes it was hard to do.
“What happened here?!”
Oh. That was Tatiana. She had been more or less avoiding the pod after what happened with.... So this was awkward. Or at least it would be if she wasn’t just trying to stay awake.
“T-there was a ship, we went to tell the people on the island so maybe they could go home.” Sayu gagged and coughed. “The-there were bad humans though, tr-tried to steal the oil? its what Neon J called it? I-i went to get May so we could leave, and it go into the water and then there was a fire.”
“and when we were swimming away, Mayday got oil spilled on her, and then the fire touched her and”
A coughing fit, she thinks she could hear Tila and Dodo talking now, likely filling in on the details that Sayu missed. Black filled the edges of her vision, though not from the oil this time. Her head grew heavy and she thinks someone was shouting for her to stay awake, but everything just hurt too much.
--------------------------------------------
“Hey! Hey don’t pass out on me!” Yinu’s mother felt May’s body go completely limp in her arms.
“We need to get her help now.” Tatiana spoke.
The siren’s body was in bad condition, her gills were black with this oil substance, that also completely coated her underside and her eyes. Her back was burned red, with hardly any scales left, and some still flaking off.
“I don’t know what this oil stuff is though, it wont come off!”
She swiped a hand on the gunk and hardly got any off, as the rest clung stubbornly to the young siren’s scales.
“M-maybe Neon J could help?”
Yinu’s mother couldn’t help but growl at the name of the human.
Tila flinched but continued “I know you don’t trust him, but please. He knows what this stuff is, so maybe he could get it off of them?”
She looked to Tatiana who looked just as conflicted as her. The woman let out a sigh and flicked her tail in irritation.
“Very well. but someone needs to go up with them to watch over them.”
“I’ll go” Yinu’s mother volunteered, and hse then turned to Tila and Dodo. “One of you should go tell Zuke.”
Dodo’s eyes widened “oh, shoot!” And he swam off to where the young siren lived with Mayday.
The larger siren cradled May to her with one arm, and took Sayu in the other, swimming to the island. She surfaced after checking it was safe, and could see the humans on the island. They startled at her appearance, as she was a good sized siren and they hadn’t seen her yet.
Good. She could use their unease to ensure the two sirens weren’t hurt.
The oldest of the group, who she assumed was Neon J, spoke first. “He-hello? I don’t think we’ve met yet, can we help you?”
She lifted herself out of the water more, showing the two injured sirens.
“OH MY GOODNESS! QUICK BRING THEM HERE!” RIN AND ZIMELU GO GET THE RAGS AND SOAP WE HAVE, PURL HEW GET THE MED KIT!”
She watched as the three boys ran off further onto the land. She hesitated before heading over to the shire, she set them in the shallows, Mayday whimpering as she was put down. At least she wasn’t completely out cold anymore, but she definitely wasn’t out of danger yet.
“I will be staying here and watching you.” Her voice was low and sharp. “Don’t try any funny business.”
Neon J simply nodded at her as his boys came back with his supplies. “I will do everything I can.”
A splash caught her attention, and the next thing she Knew Zuke was by her side.
“Wh- MAY! SAYU!” Zuke’s voice was frantic. “What happened?!”
“I need to know that as well.” Neon J asked as he had some of those rags with a foamy substance on them in his hand. She watched as he began to gently wipe off the oil from May’s scales with the young green haired one, while some of his other boys worked on Sayu.
“According to Sayu those humans that were stealing this.. oil stuff, spilled it into he water and it caught fire. When they were running away, Mayday got oil spilt on her before she was set on fire.”
The human winced “Yes, that would explain these horrible burns.”
“Will they be okay?” Zuke asked him.
“Right now we need to get this oil off them, this soap should help, and then well need flush out their systems with some water to get it out of their gills and eyes.”
“...and....her burns?”
The man paused and sighed. “I need to know if you all have anything that you use to treat burns, or something that could keep it in place so the water doesn’t wash it off.”
“uh yeah?”
“Then can you please get it?”
Zuke hesitated for a minute before she spoke up “I will stay with them, please. Go to our pod and get the supplies.”
He hesitated once more before diving away, and she turned back to him with a questioning look.
he glance at her before speaking. “I will treat her burns as much as I can, but you need to prepare her for the fact that some of these burns will never go away, and that it is likely some of her scales won’t grow back.”
She sighed “I was afraid of that.”
It was sometime later that they managed to clean the girls completely of oil,  and Zuke had returned with medicine. He spread it carefully over Mayday’s back and tail, before wrapping them up.
“They’re going to be weak for a couple of days, if they start coughing up oil bring them back to the surface so we can flush their system again.”
By this time May had woken up, wincing every time he put the medicine on her and as she was being wrapped up. The girls looked exhausted, especially May.
“They should be good to go back now. They’ll need to take it easy for a while.”
“What about the humans?” Zuke asked.
“The people are mostly gone, and now there’s only a clean up crew. But we won’t be trying to signal them, too risky that they’ll find you all. The two criminals have likely been arrested.”
“But you won’t be able to go home now?” Zuke had Mayday leaning on him, while Yinu’s mother held Sayu.
“It’s not worth the risk to you all.”
As they left to return home, she turned back and gave Neon J a nod of thanks. He proved himself helpful in treating the girls and wasn’t willing to risk their safety just to leave. She may not fully trust him, but he was shaping up to not be a bad human after all.

hii it's goth band anon! i honestly listen to any genre, and i'm finally getting into goth music recently, so far I like Siouxsie and the Banshees, Fields of the Nephilim, The Cure and Joy Division. If you have band recs that are influenced by heavy, industrial, or symphonic metal I'd probably like them! I also don't mind stuff with country or pop influences even. thank youu have a great day! ^^
If you like Fields of the Nephilim and are interested in bands influenced by Metal or that have an otherwise heavier sound:
Gothic Sex: Terrible band name, great music. Iconic 90s Spanish band (lyrics almost exclusively in English). Highlights: El Vacío, Bloody Love, Ashes to Ashes, The Frenzy “Loving the Vampire”, Sangre en la Arena.
Lacrimosa: Another icon of the 90s, this time from Germany (lyrics almost exclusively in German). They started as a solo project closer to Darkwave, then became more Rock oriented, at first being pure Gothic Rock with a heavier sound, then incorporating symphonic elements. Highlights: Vermächtnis der Sonne, Schakal, Malina, Dich zu töten fiel mir schwer, Stolzes Herz.
Two Witches: Another 90s legend. If you're a wlw I'd tread with caution because they have many songs about sex and of those many fetishize us which is 😐 but I fell in love with them when I was in denial and had very conservative views (I was 16). Other than that, great sound that balances more traditional Goth Rock with some Metal influences. Highlights: Wintertime / Talveniaka, Requiem, Burn the Witch, Mircalla, The Omen.
Wisborg: Finally a new band in this sea of 90s lmao. I haven't listened to them with too much focus (brain fog is a bitch) but they are very, very good. Their sound is very Gothic Rock but heavy enough that trad goth purists who’ve never listened to real Gothic Metal call them that (🙄). Highlights: Spirits that I Called, Temptation & Hesitation, Becoming Caligari, Apocalypse, Beautiful & Broken.
The 69 Eyes: They only had a brief goth phase, but it felt sincere and goddamn was it GOOD. They're not so much Metal influenced per se, they started as a Hard Rock band and turned that into Goth Rock. Highlights: Stigmata, Velvet Touch, Sister of Charity, Brandon Lee, Dance D'Amour.
Theatre of Tragedy: NOT A GOTH BAND, they're mostly a Gothic Metal band + 2 Industrial Metal albums, but they had a whole album of Gothic Rock which has some of my favorite goth music ever (or favorite music in general). Their goth stuff is just *chef kiss*. Highlights: Cassandra, Venus, Popæa, Samantha, Lorelei.
Some sweet Post-Punk + Gothic Rock that’s a little closer to Post-Punk than most of the genre:
Corpus Delicti: It’s like if Bauhaus had gone 90s Goth Rock imo, one of my faves. Highlights: Saraband, Lorelei, Noxious (The Demon’s Game), Twilight, Dancing Ghost.
Drab Majesty: Another recent band! They’re Darkwave that combines Post-Punk with synths and sounds very dreamy and VERY 80s. Highlights: Dot in the Sky, The Foyer, Dolls in the Dark, Everything is Sentimental. Forget Tomorrow.
Address Unknown: They’re hell to find on YouTube so I had to upload songs on a side account. The vocals aren’t for everyone, but I like them and the music is great. Very smoking clove cigarettes outside the goth club at night broodingly. Kudos to myself for recommending a band from 2008-2010. Highlights: The Raven, Corvus Dementis, Cathedrals of Iron and Steel, Undercurrent, This Verdant Plague.
Skeletal Family: AN UNDERRATED 80s CLASSIC. Ok, relatively underrated. If you like Siouxsie and the Banshees you’ll probably like these guys a lot. Highlights: Hands on the Clock, Promised Land, Far and Near, So Sure, The Wind Blows.
Soror Dolorosa: They became more notorious in the 10s but they started in the late 00s so I’m claiming them for us. Great Gothic Rock verging on Post-Punk, atmospheric and very polished. Highlights: Beau Suicide, Trembling Androgyneous, Soror Dolorosa, Hologram, The Figure of the Night.
Creux Lies: They’re The Cure’s Disintegration, The Band (But With A Little More Synth) - in a good way. Highlights: Portals, Zone, Made, Tsavo, Electrum.
I don’t know that much about goth that’s a cross over with or influenced directly by Industrial, at least what Industrial became starting in the late 90s as opposed to older forms of it, but here’s what I know:
Bedless Bones: Another new band that to me is the perfect middle ground between the atmospheres of Darkwave and the beats of late 90s/early 00s Industrial, leaning towards one or the other depending on each song. I’m recommending the ones leaning more towards Industrial. Highlights: Limbs Entwined, Drifting, Sad and Alone, Adulthood, Ostara.
London After Midnight: Specifically, their last album to date. They started as pure Gothic Rock and through time they became more and more influenced by Industrial, reaching their peak at it in Violent Acts of Beauty, a highly political album released during the government of Bush Jr. and very much against it. Highlights: Feeling Fascist?, America’s a Fucking Disease, The Kids are all Wrong, Nothing’s Sacred, Fear.
Ghosting: Pretty old and rather obscure Darkwave, but so, so good. I’ll specifically recommend songs that are more heavily influenced by Industrial. Highlights: Todesengel, Disguised in Black, Die Baby Die, Ad Nauseum, Schlange.
I hope this was helpful, have a great day too!

Hi dear 💞
I have a slightly more angsty song today but dnsnhfd Santana singing soft rock ballads is a must so! Imagine her singing wicked game by Chris isaak..... it's become one of my recent faves and I think it would fit her s2 angst really well... that and like overall her voice would be amazing for this, she's so good at expressing the emotions of whatever song she's singing 😔💞
Plus it also fits into vb au!! Pls can u imagine santana singing this in the karaoke bar after she resolves some conflict with britt (can't tell u what bc spoilers but god I am so tempted to just tell u bc who knows when I'll write it) and Britt is just mesmerised (obviously) and completely oblivious to the fact that literally everyone else in the squad is just looking back and forth between her and santana bc they are both very obviously pining over each other and refusing to admit it for reasons that I don't think I can reveal bc spoilers.....
Hdnshsjf anyway... I hope ur having a good weekend! I love u n take care of urself 💓💘💖
Oh also on a side note I was listening to a 70s soft rock playlist the other day and sailing by Christopher cross came on and literally all I could think of was that scene in Britney/Brittany where schuester is singing along to it in his new car with miss pillsbury looking mortified.... I couldn't even enjoy the song hdjsjfjs I was just hit with too much secondhand embarrassment 😭
hello lovely 💓💓
yes give me the angst i will gladly take it 🤲 this is such a nice song… one that i would absolutely love to hear santana sing ! i love u giving her soft rock ballads sm!! she rly does capture emotion so well… also i can just imagine the ambiance for the performance being so nice… a bit like black to back but w some fog or smth… i like it
vb au karaoke bar my beloved <3 from this spoiler-free version i already love this sm… pining !!!! & the whole “everybody knows but them” vibe !!! and w this song… i love this n i love them
also xjdjdjdk i’m so sorry schue ruined a song like that for u… 💔 he truly is an embarrassing little man…
that kind of reminds me of one day this year after i graduated when we had to go back to the school & return all of our textbooks and when i went the teachers were listening to afternoon delight???? very out of body experience
anyway!! i love you, take care of yourself too n have a lovely rest of your day!!!! <3 :)

Revelation
flickr
Revelation by Johan Hakansson Photography Via Flickr: It has been a while since I have posted anything, due to a prolonged cold that hit me on New Year's Eve, from which I am still in recovery. This image was supposed to have been my last for 2015, but it will instead by my first for 2016. I captured this dramatic scene while camping out at Caesars Head State Park at the Foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in South Carolina early one morning back in November 2015. The weather turned out dreary, and heavy fog was moving in and out of the valley like ocean tides. When I thought the weather was giving way to some warming sunlight, new layers of heavy clouds would roll in, leaving me in disappointment once more. I used a hand towel to cover up my camera, which was getting wet from all the fog, but the towel was, obviously, only soaking up the dampness and getting more wet as time went by, leaving me wondering how much longer I could remain, for the sake of my equipment. Looking across the valley floor into the distance, I could see nothing but white...but I knew The Rock was out there, somewhere, looking back at me. When my watch timer indicated I had been at this spot for two-and-a-half hours and no sign of breakage in the clouds was evident, I began to consider packing up. And then, almost precisely on cue with my thoughts of perpetual disappointment, there was a Revelation - Mother Nature calmed, the clouds cleared, the sun so eager to shine its warmth upon the Earth, unveiled itself before me. And as its light shone upon The Rock and the final remnants of autumn colors in the valley below, the clouds illuminating with the golden-hour light, a deep sense of gratitude empowered me as I clicked the shutter... I hope you like the result? Your comments are welcomed, your Faves even more appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and view this photograph, and I hope it finds you well and safe. Here's to a excitement-filled and opportunistic 2016!
