What Kind of Music Do the Scouts + Marley Warriors Listen to in the Car?

✩ Masterlist! ✩

✩ Taglist: @myglitteringstardust @alicchi @sleepysnk @waywardsongbird3 @aestosia✩

✩ If you want to be added to a taglist, fill this out! ✩

✩ Warnings: Modern AU! ✩

Eren listens to either rock music or whatever just happens to be on the radio at the time. I hate to be basic here but he listens to bands like The Beatles and Led Zeppelin, but he's not opposed to bands like Arctic Monkeys and The Cure. He's one of those guys that wear those low-cut underarm tank tops and bashes his head to the song while he's driving.

Armin, on the other hand, prefers softer pop songs like Ricky Montgomery and Lewis Capaldi. He likes to listen to the slow, sad songs that aren't totally straight forward with the message. Mostly so he can cry over them in the car when he's feeling down or depressed. He does that a lot.

Mikasa likes those classic sad emo girl songs like Paramore's 'Emergency' and 'Perfect' by Simple Plan. Eren makes fun of her for this like you have no idea. When they're in the car together, Eren skips all of the songs until he reaches the end of her playlist, switching over to his.

Jean likes heavy rock like Eren and soft emotional songs like Armin. This man has a playlist with such different genres of music on it that it'll give you whiplash. It'll go from Green Day, to Dear Evan Hansen, Hamilton, to All Time Low. Sometimes there's a few Disney classics thrown in there to spice it up. The first time you take a car ride with him, it freaks you out and simultaneously amuses you how one man could have so many music interests.

Connie likes rap music of any kind. He thinks he's the best shit since he can 'sing along' with it, but he can't. He just mumbles out a bunch of garbage that he pretends are the words. Don't tell him that though, because he'll either get defensive or he'll cry there's no in between.

Connie and Sasha may be best friends, but their tastes in music can't be more different. Sasha likes to listen to K-Pop and anime theme songs. No, there's no convincing her that they're all not as good as she thinks they are, just let her enjoy them.

Hange likes hard rock/screamo music. They'll blast Pierce the Veil out of their room at all hours of the day, making Levi lose his fucking mind. He'll knock on her door until she turns it down or until she opens the door for him and he marches inside to turn it down for them.

Erwin listens to Christian pop music. This is the hill I choose to die on. He unironically sings it in the car, the shower, the kitchen when he's cooking. Hange and Levi can't get away from it. They want to rip their ears off. Send help.

Levi, surprisingly enough, has the same/similar music tastes as Eren and Jean. He likes to sing along to Disney songs -especially the musicals- like The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, dare I say Frozen. He is a grown fucking man that listens to 'Love Is an Open Door' in the shower and sings along like a five-year-old hyped up on Pixy Stix's. Imagine this, you see him driving down the street and are stopped next to him at a traffic light. He rolls down his windows. You expect to hear heavy metal based on his appearance, but instead 'That's How You Know' from Enchanted blasts from his window.

Mike listens to dub-step. He hooks his phone up to his car and plays an hour long video of dub-step mix. He has a playlist of just dub-step remixes of songs and puts it on shuffle sometimes. He likes to be able to bob his head when he drives, at least now he doesn't look crazy.

Reiner is the king of crying himself to sleep with sad love songs. Lewis Capaldi, Adele, 'Be Alright' by Dean Lewis, the 'If I Die Young' cover by Michael Henry and Justin Robinett. Please get him therapy. Or a girlfriend. Both. Probably both. He sits in his car at night and plays them on repeat until he cries, it helps made him feel better.

Pieck is a basic bitch that likes the generic pop songs that air on the radio. She doesn't care what she listens to really, as long as the beat is nice she'll enjoy it. Whether it be Taylor Swift-esc songs or the occasional rap song, sometimes even Jason Derulo.

Porco likes to think hes all tough and manly by saying he listens to rap and hard rock, but in reality he likes 5 Seconds of Summer and All Time Low. He listens to the alternative channel (think Alt Nation on SiriusXM). He wants to be a drummer for a band at some point, so he's definitely that kid that taps his pencils against the desk or drums his fingers on his steering wheel.

Falco thinks he's cool because he listens to Alt music that the 'plebs' haven't listened to yet. He's that poser everyone has in their middle school classes that makes fun of people that are content with the music on the normal channels.

When I say Colt is a big softie, I mean he is a big softie. He and Armin like to take late night drives places, talking about nothing and everything which Ricky Montgomery playing in the background. They go and get McDonald's together and sit in the parking lot, chatting away until they realize it's three AM.

Annie actually really likes techno/electronic style songs. She's really picky about the ones she listens to though. Most of the time she dances to them though, or she jams out to them in the car if she's alone. But overall, she's not the biggest music fan.

Udo unapologetically enjoys folk/country music. Falco makes fun of him so much for it like that child is an asshole- Udo will be in his room and blast 'Black Lung' by The Dead South until Falco screams across the hall. He may be quiet, but he's 12 years old and an asshole.

Zofia likes Rihanna and Ariana Grande. She's actually respectful and puts in headphones when she listens to her playlist, unlike her two asshole neighbors.

Bertolt is a sweet boy that listens to mainstream pop music and video game songs. He likes to listen to the nature noises and background music of open world games, they help calm him down if his anxiety gets really bad, and they help him fall asleep. It's a big comfort/coping mechanism for him. He falls asleep with his earbuds in almost every night. This sweet boy. This sweet boy, just tuck him in and kiss his forehead when you put him to bed.

ThunderCats - “The Unholy Alliance”

My copy didn’t have a title card for some reason.

We start right where we left off, with Snarf talking about how this new planet is nothing like their now-destroyed home planet, and Lion-O agreeing with the sentiment. We're constantly getting hints about how great Thundara was, and it makes one wonder what happened. I did look it up; there will be an episode all about that, so I won't make any jokes about that.

While Snarf and Lion-O share their grievances, Panthro is digging around the ship, talking about how blasted everything is. It's his catchphrase, after all; this blasted ship is blasted, but he says that lot of the parts are not too bad...

...with a completely necessary backflip for good measure! Wow, he just can't turn off his superhero mode for one second. Of course, this backflip jump could be a great animation to use for non-scrap-scavenging things, but considering Panthro's love for building things, he's probably just excited to make that ThunderTank. "No problem", he says in such a way that I wish this review was video, because I love how he says it.

WilyKit and WilyKat are playing with the food, as Snarf desperately tries to catch one of the rations. A perfectly normal activity to do on a planet that may or may not have good food.

Snarf: Snaaarf, the heavy duty...on an empty stomach?

Unlike Garfield, everyone can hear how hungry he is and how much he hates Mondays.

Lion-O suggests he scouts the area all alone to see if they're in a position that is secure. Panthro tells him they need all the help he can get getting those blasted ship parts, but Tygra decides that it would be for the best if the Lord of the ThunderCats does something to protect them. Snarf tries to go with him, and guess what happens.

Lion-O: I don't need a nursemaid anymore! Try to get that through your head, Snarf!

Denied! Snarf ends up going back to the ship, complaining about how he's invisible if there isn't work to be done. I can't really say Snarf would be much help with protecting Lion-O, but Tygra offers a few items.

He hands him the Sword of Omens, perfect for calling the rest of them, alongside a fancy and shiny new Claw Shield that hasn't been mentioned until now. It even functions as a scabbard! It's perfect as a toy acc...er, combat accessory!

All the other ThunderCats ask Tygra if he's really doing a good thing by letting the child-man loose, and his response may as well be addressed to the parents of whoever is watching this. I mean, it's not just an advertisement for the hot new Claw Shield accessory for their action figures, it's got to have some educational value!

Tygra: Lord Lion-O spent 10 galacto-years in a suspension capsule. During that time, he grew in size, but he did not grow up. He missed those first-hand life experiences through which one matures.

See, this isn't just a show where people who have a mild resemblance to cats beat up mutants, this is a show that will teach those kids life lessons as they watch this grown adult have to go through learning them. From what it looks like, Lion-O has to learn that he can't do everything by himself, and it's okay to seek help.

We then cut to the mutants from Plund-Darr, Slithe the lizard man and leader, Monkian, the monkey man. They are busy looking for a new place to build their new fortress. They've already determined that Third Earth is habitable, and there's plenty of ruins they can set foot in to plunder. Clearly, this pyramid with lightning surrounding it would be a good place to check out!

Since the other two are total cowards, they attempt to fly as far away from it as possible...by going directly into it, causing the ship to crash from getting hit by lightning.

Slithe: I see no enemy about!

Monkian: Then what caused the ship to crash?

(the pyramid's lightning makes a pyramid in the sky)

Jackalman: There's the cause!

No, really?! I guess the lightning messed with their brains, too.

Good news for the villains: whoever owns this pyramid opens the door and invites them in. He even tells them to drop their weapons as they are welcome there. I would think that would be an obvious trap to walk into a pyramid without weapons, but I would also think not to run a plane right into a bunch of lightning. Then again, why wouldn't they think he would be friendly to them; he even brought out Navi to help them through the pyramid. I'm sorry, it was the first thing I thought when I saw this.

Slithe: I am Slithe, and I fear nothing!

(stag beetle and bats fly across the screen)

Slithe: Actually, it's quite pleasant!

Is Slithe lying to keep his cool, or, as a hideous monster himself, he finds horror pleasant? Both could be accurate, but I'd like to think the former. After being led to a room with four huge statues by the magical orb, they notice a casket in the middle of the room. They see nothing here that's alive, and, judging by one's definition of alive, that might be true.

There is an undead guy, though, who makes his presence with a booming voice declaring that while evil lives, so will he. We get our first look at Mumm-Ra. We get little bits and pieces to how powerful and long-lived he is, with a slight touch of world-building. He happens to know the mutants are after the Eye of Thundara, something he knew about even a thousand years ago. Third Earth was called First Earth. Why is this important? Because he's that old, ooh!

The mutants aren't swayed by the sheer power of this undead guy, so he shows them that their ship has sunken into the sand. They can join him, or perish in the desert, and the mutants decide on the former. They also assume that they're only helping him out because Mumm-Ra can't even leave his tomb, which, revealed to the viewer via Mumm-Ra's inner monologue, is not the case.

This scene lasts about a third of the episode, by the way. This episode is mostly exposition.

Anyway, Lion-O wants to hunt down some Third Earth deer. I mean, he is a cat, cats are built for hunting! I'm sure if cats can use swords, they would definitely use them to cut down some fresh morsels, and the Sword of Omens does look like a good enough sword for the job.

The Sword of Omens itself has other plans, jumping right out of Lion-O's hands and into the dirt. Lion-O tries to pick it up, but the sword isn't budget. C'mon, sword, Lion-O wants his deer meat!

Eventually, Professor Oak shows up to tell Lion-O that this isn't the time to use that. Okay, fine, I'll stop comparing Jaga to other show or game's helpers, but he is essentially the tutorial guy. Before he can ask him any more questions, like, "how are you here?", he disappears. Before he can question any of this, the Sword of Omens starts to make noise, and Lion-O is able to pick it up. Using its Sight Beyond Sight ability, he sees nothing...

...and then those mutants suddenly teleport in. Lion-O tries his best to stop them by just standing there. Maybe one of the questions was "why didn't you train me for this kind of thing?" He does know one thing, though, as he lifts his sword and a different but will still totally be stock animation plays.

Lion-O: Thunder, thunder, thunder...

Lion-O: ...Thundercats, mmmpphhhphph!

I'll admit, that made me laugh. One never expects something like this to happen even in 90's shows with transformation sequences, and here's the 80's show subverting the "nobody interrupts the transformation sequence" trope.

Thankfully for Lion-O, that trope doesn't get entirely subverted. He manages to get his mouth free, summoning Panthro and Wilykit and Kat. They explain that Tygra and Cheetara are still busy looking for a good spot for the new home base. They show up, and Lion-O greets them very well...

Lion-O: (barely dodging clubs) I'm...doing...just...fine!

No, he wasn't. After Panthro picks Slithe up, they suddenly disappear before anything can actually happen, though in a different way than they did in the last episode. WilyKit and WilyKat even give some exposition that there's no ships around for them to teleport. Those blasted mutants must have learned some new tricks!

One may be wondering if they could deny the call, and they do bring this up after the mutants have mysteriously disappeared. Lion-O offers to help find Cheetara and Tygra, and Panthro says he should stay here. This exchange does lead to a pretty good line.

Lion-O: I said I'll go, Panthro! I'm not a kid anymore! I'll go.

Panthro: ...riiight. (puts hands on his shoulder)

Again, the line delivery is so good in this episode.

Anyway, we're back to the evil exposition chamber, where Mumm-Ra mocks his new minion's abilities, or lack thereof, to steal candy from an overgrown baby. Forgetting their assumption that he can't leave the lair, or possibly mocking his lack of ability to leave, they tell him he should do it himself.

Mumm-Ra decides, yeah, this is it. Behold his power! Okay, where's his power?!

There it is. With the help of his statues, he can Hulk himself up; just like he does in the theme song! It's even the same animation. What we don't see in the theme song is them flying in the air and screaming. One definitely knows what scream I'm talking about; it's also in the intro. Honestly, it's just the "RAAAUUUUUUGGH" that makes me. Imagine if Ryu shows up, and his battle cry is his K.O. scream.

Meanwhile, Lion-O...

Lion-O: What's that? Ooh, it's hot, and sticky!

Okay, maybe I don't want to know.

No, just kidding, this is Lion-O's childlike innocence when confronted with a lake made of tar. His first instinct is to put his finger in it. Remember kids, don't stick your fingers in tar. It is very difficult to take off. There will be a point to this.

Suddenly, the Sword of Omens shines again, and Lion-O now knows fully well what's going to happen next...

...another evil guy showing up out of nowhere, except way more muscular and probably more worthy of a ThunderCats Ho. He almost considers it, but...

Lion-O: What is that thing? Wait, I know! Thunder! Thunder...No! As Lord of the ThunderCats, I must fight this demon alone!

Wait, so those Mutants were too much for him to handle alone, but this guy who definitely doesn't look like a pushover needs to be fought mano-e-mano? Well, I could argue ganging up on someone isn't exactly heroic. Our hero finally swings his sword...

...and it falls right out of his hands, this time accidentally, and it falls right into the lake of tar. After a few more swipes, he decides to try that call again, but finds out that The Eye of Thundara apparently doesn't work if it's covered in tar. As we learned before, it is very difficult to take it off. If only he completed that Thundercats Ho that time!

After Mumm-Ra dodges a few more sword swipes and plays catch with a tree trunk, he finally pins Lion-O down. What could save him now?

That fancy new Claw Shield, of course! Apparently, looking at his own reflection and/or the shininess was his weakness.

They interrupt this scene to show a scene where Tygra and Cheetara are looking for a place for their own new headquarters, when they say they heard the ThunderCat Roar. Oh, so that's what it was supposed to be called! Also, which one? Did they somehow hear him say "ThunderCats Ho" when the sword was covered with tar, or was it the successful one they missed about 5 minutes ago? We never get an answer to that.

Mostly because it doesn't matter, as the reflection and/or shininess makes Mumm-Ra blast off again. Hey, I said I was going to stop comparing Jaga to other characters. He screams the same scream he's been doing when he got out of his tomb. I wouldn't blame them: it was a very good take; it should be used way more than once!

As Mumm-Ra puts himself back in his coffin and gets mocked by his minions for also failing what they tried to do, an echo that is pretty good, the other ThunderCats come and hear the whole story. In the end, they praise Lion-O for his courage of facing off against a strong guy all by himself, which, by the way, something they were worried about. Maybe the true lesson is, don't worry, sometimes it'll all be fine.

That's pretty much where the episode ends, but it wouldn't end without a Snarf quip.

Snarf: Snarf, never had any use for courage myself, it just gets those who has it into trouble.

Eh, he's not wrong.

How does it stack up?

It's certainly a step down from the last episode, which is a shame because it is supposed to be the second part.

Next, we get to meet those robotic gerbils. At least, that's what I think they are.

Now that the DCI season is over and I actually ended up getting a chance to watch every world class show at least once and most 2x I feel like briefly* breaking down my feelings on each one with an x/10 on personal enjoyment.

*brief is relative

Cascades- Pretty fun show. Looked and sounded great for the lowest placing corps. The ribbons had me stressed the entire show that someone would trip. 7/10

Jersey Surf- I was neutral on this show. Visually looked much better when the entire field stopped being blue. Cute ending. Performers were clearly giving their all. 6/10

Music City- Hated it :( just too cheesy for me i guess. Brass honestly surprised me with how good they sounded. Liked the guards flags a lot too. HATED the costumes. 5.5/10

Genesis- Liked it once the extended voiceover was done. Always love a good just hitting objects percussion moment. Wish I wasn’t on the side 2 35 for the brass stacked up so I could get the full impact. 8/10

Troopers- ... I don't like not liking them but... Positives: tried something new, trumpet soloist, the tarps were pretty, a few captivating individual movement moments. Negatives: uniform, visual, brass, overall design. I liked it more streamed than live but they were recovering from illness then. 5/10

Scouts- Similar to above. Liked the selection of music but that was about it. All their marching looked real frantic for some reason but still more consistent than troop. I don’t really remember anything particular for this show. I hope them and troop can do better next year. 6/10

Colts- Very impressed with them this season. Uniforms looked better than it seemed when revealed. Brass, especially trumpets and mellow, sounded great. Only thing I didn’t care for was the “freeze over” the blue shirts looked REAL cheap and the fabric just seemed to move too slowly to me. 8.5/10

Academy- Mixed feelings. The members were great but the show ending with like a rock version of london bridge is super lame. The staggered run towards the beginning was such simple but effective drill. Lovely ballad. Might have been one of my favorites of the season but those couple moments really dragged down the show for me. 7.5/10

Pacific Crest- One of the shows I only saw once. Really liked the uniforms and props. Nothing really is sticking in my mind and I think seeing it another time would have helped. ?/10

Spirit- A lot of corps I don’t typically like put on shows I was a big fan of and Spirit was one of those. Costumes were overall great; just wish the neon skintight ones were either a little loosed or had something hanging from the waist. Never thought I would hear Krump again lol. Just a very entertaining show. 8.8/10

Phantom- The guard pretending to be horns just doesn't do anything for me anymore. Brass sound good when they're allowed to; one of the worst on electronic support this year to me. Another nice ballad (with some wonderfully timed fireworks at Allentown) Not my favorite show of theirs but definitely not the worst 7/10

Crossmen- I feel like I should have liked the show more. Drum major looked great; loved the headpiece. Probably my favorite visually of their shows. I don’t know drums but I liked theirs. The stomp/clap section seemed awkward every time (probably because of audience participation during an accel) Ride trombones sounded very uncharacteristic in every stream I saw, not nearly as bad live. 6.7/10

Mandarins- I don’t know what it is but I always love their shows, have since their 20th place days. Brass sounded great especially at that ballad impact. Everyone moved pretty good. Didn't care for the corps proper uniform. The drum break with the song playing over it was pretty lame but the show ended strong after. 9.2/10

Cadets- Overused joke but Cadets can do better. Brass sounded really nice and everyone in the corps was doing their best to sell this show. The stair/bridge props were really cool, probably the part of the show i liked most. The recorded stuff was too much and didn't work for me. A little surprised they didn't redo the Do Better section. Also didn't really understand the plot it was trying to tell, just something about equality or something. 4.5/10

Blue Stars- Least favorite of the year and maybe ever. HATE HATE the uniforms. hate the props. When i saw them the guard was a disaster which based on scores must have been a fluke. hated the quiet ending. there was some impressive drill in there and they sounded fine. 3/10

Blue Knights- First BK show I’ve ever liked and it solidly lands in my top 10 of the year. Probably most effective voiceover. I love mirrors on the field but they didn't really feel utilized. Loved the doppler drums at the beginning. Some really cool drill moments throughout. As with everyone soloist were wonderful. Ending gave me goosebumps. 9.3/10

Boston- I think I heard too much hype for them and they just didn’t quite live up to it for. Guard was great obviously. Same with brass. Those peg walls were really cool. HATED the uniforms a black leotard with gold accents will always look cheap. The brass choreo for some reason made me think of oompah loompah dances. Also don't want to hear hamilton. 7/10

Cavaliers- Absolutely my favorite of the year. The uniforms looked wonderful on most of the ensemble. Starting with some loud, aggressive clusters always works for me. Loved the soloists sounding like they were in the distance. Every seemed like they were having a good time every time i saw them. Biggest downside to me was the drill felt very compact the entire show. I was really rooting for them to move up through the season but oh well. I’d say this is probably in my top 5 and definitely top 10 of all shows 9.8/10

Crown- Love that opening. Love that ballad. Love the dance solo after the ballad. Confused but enjoy the like bollywood part of the show. “the detail of the pattern” is a little annoying but it’s not there too long. Don't think there's anything to dislike about this show, the love just wasn't quite as high as for cavies. 9.6/10

SCV- Cool show. Similar to last years in design but I liked this one a lot more. So much individual excellence. It’s getting closer but i still think they have the best mello line. Probably my favorite use of the field this year. Low brass and first mello solos were great. The trumpet solo thing was a neat effect in concept but it never really landed any time i saw it. 9/10

Bluecoats- This corps I have very polar responses to and this was a down year for me. Beatles started them at a deficit. I got a facebook memory reminding me of solo mic balance issues with them in 16 today and that was one of my biggest complaints this year too. Even though i said it was a down year for me those are my only issues. I think this is the best they've ever played or moved and probably have the best costuming of any corps. Its just nota show i personally enjoyed. 6.5/10

Blue Devils- Neat concept. Really liked the tap section. Violin seemed unnecessary. BD always has my favorite guard. Up there with Cadets and Boston for neatest prop. Everything BD does well they did well. A little boring for a BD show imo. 7/10

Only 3 shows were 5/10 or lower while 8 were 8/10 or higher. Cant wait to see what next year holds

One of those long ass question answering posts

Relationship status: my best friend and I started having sex at New Years and he doesn't want to be in a relationship but I do so we said we were going to stop having sex but instead we keep doing it. So, single? Complicated? We spend all my time on the mainland together and act like we're dating and people treat us like we're dating so I don't even know. Favorite colors: Purple and blue Pets: belonging to me: 2 Cornish X chickens named Noisy and The Beast, nicknamed Bebe; belonging to my family: a Norwegian elkhound named Boo, a pit bull named Albert, a Maine Coon named Reesa, a Connemara named Harris; and my best friend has a German Shepherd puppy named Scout who I am the mom of but have no real ownership over Last song I listened to: The Ideal Husband by Father John Misty, from his album I Love You, Honeybear

First fandom: Tamora Pierce Hobbies: I don't really have hobbies anymore because of school and work and depression. But I guess TV? Is that a hobby? Podcasts? Reading? Archery? Favorite book: I hate this question. One single book? To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee or Fifth Business by Robertson Davies Worst thing I’ve eaten: the first time I ever had quinoa was on a plane and it was so bad and ever since then I can't eat quinoa without feeling like I'm back on that plane Favorite place: my work on Gambier Island

Are you named after someone? Short answer: no. Long answer: my mom watched a documentary about nuns while she was pregnant and thought Mary Margaret would be a great name for a nun so she wrote it on her baby name list and my dad liked it and here I am.

When is the last time you cried? I don't know. I cried while having a difficult conversation with my boss last week so probably then Do you like your handwriting?

I am a coward so probably not What is your favorite kind of cereal? Cinnamon toast crunch Do you untie your shoes when you take them off?

Or maybe my boss Favorite sport to watch? None

Hair color? Red/brown/blonde

Eye color? Brown Do you wear contacts? No I have some but they scare me Favorite food to eat? Brownies and pizza and chicken pie and slurpees Scary movies or comedy? Depends on the movie. I think I'm more likely to like a scary movie than a comedy because so many comedies don't do it right but so many horrors also don't do it right. Last movie you watched? Park Chan-Wook's The Handmaiden. It was amazing. What color shirt are you wearing? A white improv camp shirt! Summer or winter? Summer Hugs or kisses? I mean. Kissing though.

Tagged by @mulderswaterbed. Thank you!

1: Are you named after someone? Not my first name, but my middle name was my dad’s mom, who died when he was young.

2: When is the last time you cried? This was just in the other one. Before the commercial about the dog and the horses, I think it was that poem about the worm drawing a picture of itself.

3: Do you like your handwriting? I think so? My handwriting is weird. I hold the pencil weird -- it rests on my fourth finger instead of my third finger like it’s supposed to. I don’t know how I got in that habit but my mom, who used to teach first grade, is dismayed by it. So I wonder if my handwriting is affected like that. It’s not very girly. I kinda like it though.

4: What is your favorite lunch meat? SALAMI. But also roast beef. And sometimes, for some reason, I randomly crave bologna.

5: Do you have kids? No kids. Only nieces.

6: If you were another person, would you be friends with you? If I were me, yes. I mean, if I were another person, but a person like me. I don’t know if any given random person would definitely want to be friends with me. I think I am a good friend, but I sometimes don’t respond well to too much friendliness, and I am not very good at inviting people to do things. I’m probably never going to make plans with you, but if you make plans with me I’m reasonably likely to do them, although that depends on frequency/proximity. I’ll listen and think through your stuff with you if you need advice or just to vent, but I am NOT a good person to call in the middle of the night. So it depends on what level of friendship you need. I need a lot of boundaries.

7: Do you use sarcasm? Why yes, yes I do.

8: Do you still have your tonsils? Yup.

9: Would you bungee jump? Most definitely not. Someday I (maybe) want to try hang gliding though.

10: What is your favourite kind of cereal? You know, I really never eat cereal EVER. Even though I like cereal. I never have milk in the house and also cereal isn’t very good for you unless it’s super fiber-y. I have a disgusting soft spot for Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Golden Grahams. On the (slightly) healthier side, I like anything that’s basically granola with dates in it. I hate Kashi GoLean in all its unholy incarnations.

11: Do you untie your shoes when you take them off? Well, that depends on the shoes, Mulder. I do have sneakers with shoelaces that I do not untie. But I also have boots with laces that I do untie.

12: Do you think you’re a strong person? Not really. I wish I were stronger, in a lot of ways.

13: What is your favorite ice cream flavour? Coffee oreo. By a mile. Weirdly, I can take or leave actual oreos.

14: What is the first thing you notice about people? I don’t know. How tall they are?

15: Red or pink? Red.

16: What is the least favorite physical thing you like about yourself? What? I can’t parse this.

17: What color pants and shoes are you wearing now? Black pj pants with white polkadots. Bare feet.

18: What was the last thing you ate? Two Girl Scout cookies (peanut butter patties).

19: What are you listening to right now? Silence, and my cable box making weird thumpy noises. It does that.

20: If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Maybe forest green.

21: Favorite smell? Spring air. Also coffee.

22: Who was the last person you spoke to on the phone? My dad maybe?

23: Favourite sport to watch? The dog show. Of human sports? Probably something dumb like figure skating. Of sporty sports? Basketball I guess. Baseball is OK sometimes.

24: Hair colour? Blondey-browny.

25: Eye colour? Blue.

26: Do you wear contacts? Yes, though mostly I’m too lazy and I just wear my glasses.

28: Scary movies or comedy? Probably comedy. I don’t really like scary movies, although I do like trailers for scary movies, and sometimes scary TV shows. (X-Files, I’m not talking about you. You’re not scary.) I can be a little snobby about my comedy though. Romcoms, no thank you.

29: Last movie you watched? Sunshine.

30: What color of shirt are you wearing? Grey.

31: Summer or winter? Summer over winter, but really spring and fall.

32: Hugs or kisses? Hugs. I hate kisses. I don’t even like the word “kisses.”

33: What book are you currently reading? Embarrassingly and providentially enough, the book I am currently reading is Bucking Fucking Dent by David Duchovny. I got it at the signing last week. I have lots of thoughts that I’ll post about at some point.

34: Who do you miss right now? Various friends that I don’t see enough.

35: What is on your mouse pad? Don’t have one anymore!

36: What is the last TV program you watched? Grimm, tonight.

37: What is the best sound? Wow, good question. Frogs at night in the summer. That might be my favorite. Or waves.

38: Rolling Stones or The Beatles? Mulder’s Beatles. Because I’m Stones. Wait, sorry. Uh, probably Beatles I guess. I don’t have any huge attachment to either one really.

39: What is the furthest you have ever traveled? Furthest from where I live now? I guess Prague. That’s not very far. Wait, I guess Vienna is further than Prague.

40: Do you have a special talent? I’m pretty good at spelling. And I can name all the countries in the world, which I like to practice by frequently taking that one Sporcle quiz.

41: Where were you born? In a hospital in Massachusetts.

Velveteen Ships

Chapter 4

I don’t go home with Ryan, much to his disappointment. The nerve of that guy. He comes over, throwing his money around, offering me drinks, telling me how he owns the bar, sharing his fancy, amazing weed as if it’s going to make me turn around and go home with him. I almost did, but not for those reasons. He looked genuinely pissed off and the thought crossed my mind that he’s probably used to getting his way. I try not to laugh.

I wake up in my own bed, luckily, smiling at the comfort of my surroundings, taking in the walls covered in musicians, Bowie, The Smiths, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, my favourite men all staring back at me. My bed is soft and I decide to stay in it a little while longer, to sink back into the sheets and dwell of last night with embarrassment. All the flirting, the hip swaying, the grinding. I need to get laid.

After my shower, I decide to play my guitar, I have twenty minutes or so to kill before work and I need to practise as much as I can for our gig next week, just in case there’s any talent scouts, you know? This might be my big break. I only stop playing as I hear a voice harmonising with mine on the other side of my bedroom door.

I’m not surprised when I find a half naked Gabe at our table eating breakfast, but it doesn’t stop my eyes taking in his glowing body, his golden torso up to his sparkling smile and it’s obvious what he got up too last night. He’s dripping of sex.

“Dallon’s gone to work.” he acknowledges me. He looks like he had a headache and again, I’m not surprised. Gabe’s an undeniably handsome man, his lips tilt up at one corner, curling into a smile as I take him in. He’s looking at me like he know’s what I’m thinking.

“Yes, we had sex. Dal’s damn good, has he ever fucked you?” my eyes flicker to a hickey on Gabe’s neck and huh. I didn’t take Dallon as the dominant type. That’s… that’s good to know. I realise I haven’t answered as the other man begins to tap his foot impatiently, dark eyes watching me.

“Oh! No…” I practically spit out. Because no, of course not, we have masturbated thinking about each other. I don’t tell him that. Luckily there’s no time to go in to that subject as I check the clock on my phone.

“Just friends, me and him. I have work.” I bite my lip, nervous now I have no alcohol inside me. Gabriel has this demanding presence, he’s sexy without trying and his eyes are always moving, always watching. He makes me feel naked although I’m currently fully dressed.

“You know, Brendon, I’m sure he’d let you join in next time…” He purrs with a knowing smirk. And with that I’m grabbing my coat and making my way out the door, keys stuffed in my back pocket. Next time? So this is gonna be a regular thing, now? Goddamn it, Saporta.

* * *

I’m not late to work today, for once, a good job too because my boss is one more slip up away from firing my perfect butt and I know it.

I’m restocking the shelves when a voice appears in my ear next to me. As if it came from another galaxy, unexpected, unintroduced and unwanted.

“How much?” a male hand gently strokes over the silk panties in front of us, I stand up to turn around and almost laugh when I meet his eyes. Of course. It’s not a coincidence that he’s here, I’m not stupid, I knew he’d only try harder to talk to me after I turned him down. I had forgotten, however, that he knew my place of work. And now I have a stalker.

“The prices are right there, sir.” I give Ryan Ross a professional, forced smile. I look around, confused. “Who are you buying them for?”

“Haven’t decided that yet.” He grins wide and I almost scoff, shaking my head with a disbelieving look. Does he really think lines like this are going to get me to sleep with him? I’ve gotten good at ignoring the beautiful parts of him now. I always see the good in people and in the past it’s gotten me into trouble. So I definitely do not notice the way his eyes light up when mine meet them or the way he licks across his bottom lip when I speak or the way he smells like the first morning coffee that you’ve been craving since you woke up. No, I don’t notice those things.

“I’ll take them.” He decides, eyeing me up and down, walking in front of me toward the counter and placing the lingerie onto it. I follow him with a roll of my eyes. I ask if he wants them gift wrapped and he nods, they’re a very pretty pair, way out of my price range even with the discount and I use the prettiest wrap we have, tying a ribbon around them before placing them into a bag.

“Thanks, Brendon. Will I see you at Boys/Boys/Boys this weekend?” he says, voice velvety and dripping with something that sounds like pleading as he hands over the cash. I smile at him apologetically because, no, I have a show to do so unfortunately for Ryan Ross he can’t spend this weekend harassing me.

“Actually, my band is performing at Angels and Kings, so you won’t.” I reply, almost triumphantly. I expect his eyes to narrow at that, they widen instead. Shit. Why did I tell him the venue?

“Band huh? You guys good?” he looks as if he’s considering something, eyes bright. I shrug, it’s out first show but I’m definitely not revealing that information to him, jesus. “Well, Boys/Boys/Boys has a talent night on Thursdays. You should audition for this week, we haven’t got anyone to play yet, still a new club, you know…” He presses, writing down his number and putting it into my palm. I’m almost shocked he didn’t give me a business card or something.

“Audition? How?” I raise a brow, meeting his honey eyes briefly before forcing myself to look elsewhere. We need all the shows we can get, even if means performing for egotistical assholes like him. His smile forms into something so much darker than usual and for a second I’m convinced he’s going to make me suck him off.

“Come to my house after work, text me your address, a car will come to collect you and your little bandmates. Be there with whatever instrument you play.” His eyes look me over one last time before he takes his bag and turns to leave, he doesn’t wait for an answer. I watch him in shock, not really knowing how to react to that. I guess I’m going back to his place after all, he won, the bastard.

* * *

“I got us an audition!” I say triumphantly as I walk through our apartment door, stilling as I turn around to Dallon and Gabe in a mess of long limbs on our couch, making out, luckily with all their clothes on.

“Oh, on the couch, really?!” I sigh and pout, a little bit jealous but trying not to show it. This really is going to be a regular thing, my friends and bandmates hooking up. Gabe looks up at me from underneath Dallon and he looks so gone, hands laced in the others hair, lips swollen and parted. I try not to stare at either of them because woah.

“Rich coming from you, sugar…” Dallon chuckles lowly, picking himself up from Gabe and sitting on the couch, fixing his shirt. He looks pretty gone, too, I’ve never seen his pupils so wide and he doesn’t even bother hiding his obvious erection. “An audition?” he continues “With who?” and Gabe looks kind of pouty and needy as he realises that Dallon isn’t going to kiss him for this whole conversation, it’s a side of him I haven’t seen before.

“With Ryan Ross. His driver is picking us up in thirty minutes so I suggest you two finish up and grab your instruments. I’ll get Spencer on the phone.” And I do, luckily he lives in the same apartment building and says he’ll meet us in the lobby with his drums. I go to my room to get my things and I’m grinning ear to ear, how could I not be? Finally our shitty little band that I have invested all my health and sanity to is getting recognition.

I change into something tight, making sure my pants show off my ass and my shirt hugs my curves perfectly. What? A little sucking up won’t hurt, right? I remember that excited glint in Ryan’s eye as he found out about the band and it makes my stomach twist with nerves because he could really hate us. That would be awful.

* * *

Ryan’s driver is called Max, he seems pleasant enough. Very polite, professional and quiet. We ask lots of questions about his boss, none of which he cares to answer. I feel uncomfortable sat inside a car that’s probably worth more than any house I’ve ever lived in. The seats are leather and clean, almost clinically so. I notice the divide that can be pulled between us and Max and wonder why it’s there… my mind can only imagine it’s for privacy so whoever in the car can have sex but then, this car definitely looks too clean for Ryan to have fucked in it.

We’re not in the city any more, I’ve noticed, we are instead driving through an estate of very expensive looking houses, getting bigger and further away from each other the more we drive.

We pull into a gate that opens as soon as the car nears it and my eyes widen at the size of a house on top of a hill, surrounded by beautiful fields of well kept gardens. Trees and flowers bloom out from every direction and yet it still looks neat. It looks creative, extravagant and eccentric. Very Ryan Ross.

My bandmates and I are shocked in to silence as we get out of the car, greeted by a team of staff who collect our instruments from the back of the car and bring them inside as if they’ve been instructed to do so. We follow them up the stairs to the large mansion, my eyes exploring every inch of it they can find. It really is beautiful, at least Ryan isn’t one of those rich people with no taste.

“Brendon! Boys!” an excited voice calls and a couple of giggling girls leave the living room as we enter. I roll my eyes because what is this? The playboy mansion? I give him a shy smile as I watch our instruments being assembled in the middle of the very large room. I try not to flinch as Ryan’s staff touch my guitar, and mic, I spent months of savings on those and no one else has ever laid a finger on them. I bite my lip nervously.

“Ryan…” I say dryly. The other guys are already sucking up to him, fawning over how incredible and artistic his home is. Ryan offers us all a drink which we kindly accept. God knows we need it. Spencer introduces himself and they all play happy families. I sit back, quietly sipping my drink until it’s time to perform.

Ryan seems pleased as I step up to the microphone, I remember that I hadn’t told him what part in the band I have and it seems he has a thing for singers. Doesn’t everyone? I place my guitar gently around my shoulders, brow quirking as an older man comes into the room and sits beside Ryan.

“Hi, We’re Velvetine Ships and firstly, thank you for having us…” I try, it sounds a little forced but I haven’t actually done this before. Shit, I’m shaking, thank God for that drink. If performing in front of two people makes me this nervous I can’t imagine how this weekend is going to feel.

“Lastly, this is a song we wrote and we hope you enjoy.” I say before ducking my head, Spencer counts us in and we begin.

My voice comes out better then I’m expecting as I fight back the nerves, my head is pounding so much that I almost can’t hear myself, but I can and I don’t sound half bad. Dallon and Gabe are playing their bass and guitar to eachother, the instruments almost touching and Spencer is working the drums like I’ve never heard him do so before. Ryan has a pokerface, as does the gentleman sat next to him but we play until our fingers hurt anyway. My hands are shaking and the guitar feels so much heavier but we’re doing it and I think we might just be pulling it off.

I try not to focus on the beautiful eyes staring at me, instead I look at the floor, the very high ceiling, my bandmates, anything but him and hope that I still come across as the charismatic, inviting lead singer that he wants me to be.

* * *

After our last song I let out a breath I wasn’t aware I was holding. They’re clapping. Thank fuck for that, I don’t think I could take any more of their serious expressions.

Ryan turns to the other man and they whisper for a short while, nodding, agreeing and humming. “You’re hired.” Ryan informs us and the boys cheer and hug each other. Hug me. My lips just curl up, I’m sweaty, shaky, tired and so happy. I catch Ryan’s eyes and he winks. We’re hired. Two gigs in one week. We’re going somewhere.

* * *

We stay for more drinks, a celebration, Ryan calls it and there’s suddenly so many people in his house, I’m actually shocked. How did he arrange the biggest party I’ve ever been to in only a few minutes?

Gabe and Dallon are making out in the corner, Spencer has a girl either side of him, talking excitedly and I’m at Ryan’s bar. His bar. In his house. I’m chatting to a friendly girl named Keltie before I’m rudely interrupted by the owner of the mansion.

“Your voice is damn gorgeous… this seat taken?” he says, sitting on the bar stool that Keltie quickly vacates for him, she looks disappointed that Ryan isn’t speaking to her. I just nod, I can’t exactly tell him to fuck off considering the circumstances, can I?

“Thanks.” I try not to blush, I’m not used to compliments on my singing, I wonder if I’ll get any more now we’re actually doing gigs, it felt nice, I hope so. “Who was the guy you were with?”

“My advisor… uncle.” Ryan corrects. Oh. Weird. “Yeah, when my parents died I inherited everything, they left it all to me, the money, the businesses…” I’m taken aback, fuck, he doesn’t seem upset but that’s a big thing to just… spring on me. What the fuck, man? “It’s fine.” He tries, noticing the shift of emotion in my eyes. “I was very young, so my uncle became my advisor… tells me what I should do and what I shouldn’t. Kind of like a teacher but I’ve left school now and he still doesn’t fuck off. I don’t do a lot, though, we have staff for that and when I’m lonely he sends girls to the house. Never boys, though.” Ryan looks a little pissed off as he talks about his uncle and what the fuck, this guy’s life is beyond anything I’m used to.

“Actually, can we maybe… can we discuss this in private?” He says and I notice a pair of eyes is watching us. His uncle’s eyes. I follow him into the gardens, not only do I want to make a good impression but now he’s guilt tripped me. Plus, his face get’s prettier and prettier the drunker I get.

“Yeah, so, that’s me. It’s not a hard life most of the time… I uh, it does get lonely though. Talking to you at the bar last night made me realise that I don’t actually have any friends. The girls come and go but they don’t really want me, they’re paid to speak to me… kind of fucked up really. And I meet people when I’m out, kiss pretty men behind my uncles back… but they all know who I am, they’re all suck ups who want my money too. You ignore and deny me time and time again, it’s great.” I quirk an eyebrow because honestly, Ryan’s idea of great is pretty… interesting. I never expected him to be such an honest person but I like this side of him. It makes him seem less of an asshole, kind of.

“Stay…” and that? That takes me off guard. We’re stood on his patio and I am pressed against the marble fence that comes to our waists, the garden below us, connected to the patio with a winding staircase.

He looks pretty in the moonlight, it shines off him in all the right places and oh… he’s moving closer. His mouth is parted and I find myself leaning in too. I feel the kiss in my veins, he feels so good, he’s well practised. His hands search my body whilst his tongue searches my mouth and he pulls me closer, urgent for something. Anything. He fists my hair and pulls me in and I moan, surprised at how my body reacts, so dirty and willing, pressing up against him as he backs me against the marble. My spine is tingling and I’m shaking for the second time tonight, he tastes incredible, amaretto and smoke and something sweet that must just be him.

We’re panting when we pull apart.

“I’m not staying…” I breathe out. Because I won’t, he’s not getting me this easily, I barely know him. I press another sweet kiss to his lips and he tries to pull me close again but I don’t let him. I give him a smile and walk back inside.

Chapter 4

* * *

I’m not late to work today, for once, a good job too because my boss is one more slip up away from firing my perfect butt and I know it.

I’m restocking the shelves when a voice appears in my ear next to me. As if it came from another galaxy, unexpected, unintroduced and unwanted.

“The prices are right there, sir.” I give Ryan Ross a professional, forced smile. I look around, confused. “Who are you buying them for?”

“Actually, my band is performing at Angels and Kings, so you won’t.” I reply, almost triumphantly. I expect his eyes to narrow at that, they widen instead. Shit. Why did I tell him the venue?

* * *

We’re not in the city any more, I’ve noticed, we are instead driving through an estate of very expensive looking houses, getting bigger and further away from each other the more we drive.

“Lastly, this is a song we wrote and we hope you enjoy.” I say before ducking my head, Spencer counts us in and we begin.

* * *

After our last song I let out a breath I wasn’t aware I was holding. They’re clapping. Thank fuck for that, I don’t think I could take any more of their serious expressions.

* * *

We’re panting when we pull apart.
