#theres so many songs i associate with u all

What’s ur favorite SU songs

The first song to come to mind is actually Be Wherever You Are. It seems like such a random song and def not one i see talked about much, im not even sure why i like it so much but its just one thats Stuck with me. I have such clear memories of singing it to myself every week when i walked to soccer training for at least a year. Its such a nice and and simple song with a lot of repetition, and while the repetition does make it s but hard to keep track of if you sing off the top of your head im never one to turn some down.

That said, while i would have to call Be Wherever You are my favourite there are still a good few that hold nice little places in my heart.

Love Like You has to get an acknowledgement, even to this day if im standing somewhere wasting time not listening to anything its the first song to pop into my head to hum, i have so many memories of walking around school, around shops, a soccer field, in a game and humming or singing it to myself. Around the time season 2 and maybe early season 3 i used to love to think about who the song could be sung by and sung at, because all the answers i could come up with none of them fit the lyrics perfectly.

Peace and Love because like, u mean come on its peace and love you can tell me anyone hates that song, it was also the first i learned to play fully on my ukulele. The song is lovely and it shows up in a nice place during peridots arc, whats there not to like. Oh yeah and because Steven actually plays his uke on screen at the start it was the song that made me realise they accurately animate his hands to the chords hes playing. I dont know guitar or piano chords well enough to be able to say anything about a few other songs where they diegetically play the instrument but i thought that was a nifty little detail

Tower Of Mistakes id like to mention as well. Il always a sucker for songs with amethyst in them, and ToM is actually Amethyst‘s only solo song, every other time she sings(on the run, extended intro, peace and love, for just one day, no matter what, happily ever after) theres st least one other person (usually steven) singing with her in the song as well

There are only a few songs on the SU soundtrack i dont really like (Sorry but the Sadie Killer and the Suspects songs arent really for me) but those ones id say are at the top of my list uwu

#controversial opinion also: i like Both Of You more than Its Over Isnt It #dont get me wrong theyre both great songs and i 100% see why the attention is put on Its Over Isnt It. but ive always liked BoY more #why do all the songs i keep abbreviating keep becoming words what is this. tom boy. good news guys new word association just dropped #i might also bring up Distant Shore. that one i got into for a good little while through a combo of #i had been waiting on lapis getting a song for Ages and also at the time i had just been convincing a friend to catch up to S5 #imagine ur me. age 12. you stopped bringing up su years ago even tho it consumes your every waking thought. #you havent discovered word vomiting into a notes documet yet. Single Pale Rose airs. #the emotional rollercoaster of taking the chance and mentioning SU to ur only friend. they know the show. they stopped watching at season 3. #they say theyll catch back up #anyways that was my mental state for a while after SPR waiting to be aböe to talk about it so i went around humming distant shore #dont u just love 2 episode blocks. oo yeay lapis song! theres a really oninous noise in my head i dont know how to convey #thanks for askibg me this bestie! #ive been trying to answer ur other SU ask but i dont even know what to be insane about ive started so many things and then left them #Tree Man Posts #asks #steven universe

golden trunks theory but i've forgotten how to do literary analysis:

so i think much like a lot of tbhc golden trunks is about a juxtaposition between intimacy/desire and the facade u have to put up as a public figure

like the opening verse/chorus are so starkly plain in the mental image they describe. it's just a simple portrait of an intimate night falling asleep together, and theres a very secretive tone created by the words "whispered" "admit". so from the get go we know immediately that it's about "true love" → romantic connotations, and this true love is associated w the night ie secrecy

this is a stark contrast to the second verse and bridge but esp the bridge where he plainly says "in the daytime". usually the day and light are associated w truth and revealing things but here he uses the daytime to talk about "a fresh new pack of lies", in contrast to the nighttime's "true love". the fact that the bridge is about being a celebrity and contending with lying for the sake of public relations is made very clear w how he says "bendable figures" → public figures who just bend/conform to the narrative crafted by pr managers, and most obviously w the use of the word "publicise". in an interview w la times hes asked if he enjoys being a pop star (w all the pressure and attention that entails) and he says "i have very little basis for comparison. the band has been going on for a larger fraction of my lifetime than it hasn’t." so as a very private person even leaving conspiracy theories about sexuality aside hes obv familiar w trying to keep the details of his relationships out of the spotlight. + this idea of the nighttime being the time for truth has been used before in diwk so it's a consistent theme

lots of people say the song about politics bc of the second verse cuz they say it's about (eugh) donald trump but i feel like thats a very surface reading. it's very out of place to me for him to have this randomass political commentary in a love song that he never brings up ever again which is why i dont think it's actually political commentary (or well, not Just, the pitchfork interview shows that is Is aware of politics obv it's just not the Point) it's just another angle to illustrate the idea of a public facing facade. he states in an interview that he thought of the wwf, which has given us the very interesting concept of kayfabe: the fact or convention of presenting staged performances as genuine or authentic. the public persona, like a wrestler w a dramatic theme song, is larger than life, rehearsed, beloved and famous, and also very much fake. 

this next part i said entirely as a joke making shit up while talking to my mutuals but then i was like wait maybe i was cooking. we're getting into more speculative rpf territory here but essentially i thought it was very interesting how he specifies that this is "the closest thing to a love song on this record", and also that the character it's centred around is one that he "made". many of his past love songs everyone knows are about his real actual love interests (eg shes thunderstorms was about alexa. alexa was a tv presenter) and now here's this song that is about simple, straightforward admittance of desire towards someone that doesnt exist. summed up in my og message to my mutuals, "hes singing to the amalgamation of his lovers an imaginary ideal to whom he can be simple and honest with in a way he can't quite bring himself to be in real life". i honestly feel like this gels well with the ultracheese's last two lines; a vague admission of guilt, of complicated feelings, vs capitulating to honesty and tiring of lying for the sake of pr ("i'm sure you've heard about enough"). + i find it interesting that golden trunks is that only tbhc song that has never been performed live

++ this idea of duplicity and lying has come up a lot in his discography but in tbhc specifically the bside anyways has the line "what a place for both the opposite sides / of my double life to finally collide"

and finally. the absolute funniest part of golden trunks.

Let me set the scene: sometime between Axl Rose getting braids (2002) and People Just Do Nothing jumping the shark (right now), those brothers in melodic yarns Turner and Kane, plus “another human being” – let’s call her “The Girl”, shall we, to save her poor mother’s heart condition? – are intertwined among the postcoital flotsam of an upmarket hotel room. “Hey, I’m glad you came,” Turner is alleged to have said, forever on the right side of etiquette and politeness in such matters. While Kane, in his sludgy Scouser lilt acknowledged, “Ah, thanks, man.” At which point Turner sat bolt upright in his sparkly gold briefs (unconfirmed) to stress who, in fact, his grateful aside was aimed at: “Not you, you wally. Her!”

im going to dump my thoughts on u here cuz i can anyway have u heard of the song Bed of Roses by Mindless Self Indulgence ive been listening to it on loop and i am going to share with u my interpretation of the lyrics cuz it seems im an outlier amongst what people (or atleast whats on the genius page) think it means but my take is so real and true to me

basically Bed of Roses is thought to be a song about being passive in life and letting things pass you by and happen as they do, not caring about making the perfect life, but for me personally it always came off as being about suicidal thoughts and that interpretation not only makes more sense to me but also is far more interesting

'hey its alright my life has never been a bed of roses' is the singer talking about their life, saying how its unlike a bed of roses which are seen as beautiful and also a symbol of love (also searching it up it seems bed of roses is an expression for a carefree easy life) in short theyre saying their life sucks, but thinking of it in the context of it being suicidal its interesting because the 'hey its alright' then sounds like a rationalization, the following line 'this ways better for me' only helps with painting this image. its a person rationalizing their thoughts by going 'hey my life has always sucked, death would just be better for me'

and the line 'i dont care to live the life ive chosen' further adds to this, its explicitly saying they dont care to live their life

then theres the next part, which is pretty similiar to the last but then there is the line 'dont feel sorry for me', they're asking an outside party to not feel bad for their planned demise, and its repetition makes it seem like begging almost. tying this into the earlier verses which can be read as rationalization makes it seem like the singer is a person trying to comfort and placate a close one, by rationalizing that their suicide will be better for them and begging them to not feel sorry

also 'feeling sorrys been my lifes devotion' is a banger line . i have thoughts on what it could be interpreted as but i feel like the connections arent strong enough and the line like speaks for itself i think

i think this part could be about being resistance to change or healing, it could be a negative reaction to this outside party trying to talk them out of it or reason with them, but in the end they still say 'my friend' showing they care and love them. the 'screw you' could perhaps also be read as someone trying to distance themselves from their loved ones in hopes that their death wont be as painful then

i think its interesting how after that the song ends with just a reptition of 'my lifes never been a bed of roses', perhaps im looking too far into it but it could be seen as the 'last stage', of fixating on the worst parts of life as you spiral annnd .

anyway i like this song and i kinda associate this song with seth but 4 different reasons (flower imagery, lifes sucked, not wanting pity, 'feeling sorrys been my life devotion' -> religion with its emphasis on remorse for sins and devotion. etc.)

was not expecting this at all and i dont know this song but! i like this interpretation thank u for sharing honestly i always love to read too much into lyrics and i tend to come up with diff interpretations than wht was most likely the artists intention

for example recently ive been thinking of reuse the cels by car seat headrest as a song abt gender dysphoria and the transition process (when in.reality its abt like. getting back into a relationship with someone which havent worked out in the past or whetevr)

i like to think the narrator is actually talking abt themself 'i should be glad to have you back' the 'you' being their own sense of identity

'i know every frame so many times that ive seen' refering to their own body, reminiscent of how a lot of trans folks experiencing dysphoria who tend to worry abt their self image and the ways their body looks, r constantly thinking abt it and spotting every detail, being forced to look at it everyday, wishing it was something esle/wanting to change it

this chorus and lines to me r abt hrt and like. thinking of times before realizing they were trans, times when maybe they were oblivious and not yet so worried abt their body and/or identity and wanting to not have to worry again and be happy with themself, hoping tht hrt will help with that. but at the same time the fear and anxiety that comes with not knowing if medically transitioning will guarantee being freed from all the insecurity and pain caused by the dysphoric feelings. asking urself what if it doesnt satisfy. wht if going through all that trouble, all those changes, spending all that time and money doesnt even bring the result ur hoping for. is it worth it? u dont have to do all of that. wht if all it does is drain u of energy and hope and actually make u into something further from wht ur goal was (symbolized by fading colors on reused animation cels [idk much abt that but also u could interpret it as like real body cells i guess] like.... the repeating process of replacing hormones, going through constant physical changes and stuff) so generally like. indecision and thinking too far ahead/overthinking i guess. does any of that make sense im jst saying whtever comes to mind at this point i gave up on trying to keep this cohesive

'doesnt it seem an awful waste' and 'will i lose you again' can be the narrator again referring to themself, thinking that the person they were pre-transition will fade away. that they couldve lived a completely different life, that all they do is bring 'that girl or boy they couldve been' to an end. replacing them with the desired version of themself, but not sure if thats still even the same person they used to be

and. i think it should be obvious but this is all based on how i myself deal with and think of my identity as a trans person. i feel like i should clarify that this isnt me saying that this is the experience of every trans person, each of us is different etc etc

um anyway yeah thanks for the ask wiki i might listen to the song u talked abt at some point <3

OH MY GOD MY FAVORITES??? HOW CAN I CHOOSE THERES SO MANY UR SO CRUEL TO ME </3 (jk)

Ok ok I’ll give u some of my favorites hehe cuz I can’t simply choose just one

Volcano. Automatically Volcano. Might even be my number one?? Literally any time I listen to Volcano now I think of this fic. Like it was just PERFECTION on top of PERFECTION almost made me cry I loved it so much. You packed so many details into it too and I really love coming back to it every once in a while to see what else I catch that I missed before. Also Hannie??? I love my Hannie ok. Volcano was just a masterpiece and I loved her sm truly deserves the best.

Invisible Thread up next! Part one is one of the first fics I read by you I think? Took me a while to come on anon ik ik 🫡 but both parts were just *chef’s kiss* and I loved how they intertwined with each other and complimented each other perfectly. They built off one another and you really saw the character development and growth reading from each part like 🥹 loved her sm. Part two was also a nice comfort for me cuz I wasn’t feeling well when it came out but reading it felt like a warm hug and I really appreciated that comfort at the time.

You’re in the Wind, I’m in the Water is gonna be my third choice hehe. I absolutely love how Hyunjin’s photos birthed this cuz it was so BEAUTIFUL??? And part two absolutely had me hooked. I really loved the sequences and I’m an absolute romance fiend so I was really loving the second part hehe.

Ok I’m not done cuz I can’t forget your drabbles too??? I love them equally hehe. First off the Seungmin drabble where you realize you don’t have to act a certain way around him. Mmm yup that one hit I loved it and wanna give it a lil smoochie. I feel like Seungmin was such a perfect choice for that.

Keeping the Seungmin train going, the other drabble you made where he comforted the reader who tends to bottle up their emotions. Again, hit very hard but was such a great comfort.

Okee last drabble would beeeeee the Chan one of him being proud of you at the end of a hard day. I love comfort fics and you really write them well hehe.

I’ll end this off by also saying I really love all your Hyunjin brain rots too. Like your essay I asked you to write about why you love him? Had me in tears. I just really loved reading it and I feel your understanding of the members REALLY blossoms all of your writings more. Cuz like, you understand them deeper than some may. That’s how I feel at least. I think that really helps to make the fics you write, even just the mini drabbles, feel so much more alive.

I love you, I love your brain, I love your writing, and I’m excited to see what you come up with next year <3

(Also sorry this was long lol)

-💫

i figured you would say vovv!! i love it too!! def a fave from this year for me!! but the claymation short sounds cute i'm gonna check it out 👀 i really gotta get into ducktales though i know you and like everyone else loves it!

but ooh that's the next descendants book coming! i assume you've read them all?? did you read them before the movies came out? but yes i'd love to visit auradon too!! and other places would be halloweentown and the wizard world!

speaking of vovv, who are your favorite characters and why? you can rank if you want! and dynamics too!! do you associate any songs with the characters/dynamics? and did any of those songs or just dc songs make your spotify wrapped or apple music replay this year? -gcwca secret santa

this descendants special !! idk why i like it so much i like that ghe tears are made of glitter lmao. something about it to me is so comforting and charming (no pun intended) and ducktales is very silly and fun and theres so many characters and dynamics to love! so if u check it out i hope u like it :D

YEAH i have followed the books! i know they arent a perfect canon but they can be quite fun. and year before i watched d1 i read the first book and also Mals spellbook, which i didnt realize was a mistake cuz it spoiled the movie lmfaooooo but when i realized that i was like "well! im already this far in!" and finished it anyway 💀 i was a different breed that summer lmfao the amount of fanart and playlists i was creating for a movie i hadnt seen yet. also they posted School of secrets webisodes daily and i have such a nostalgia tied to waiting every day for them to drop !!

oml wait oh wow ok. this is so hard to rank genuinely cuz everyones so good 😭😭😭 like idk i really like the dynamics between the kids (all 3 maddens + hartley) i LOVE milo lmfao he is legendary i am so pleased w him and amy being frenemies its so fun. hartmy is for sure in love and i think havoc and starling are exes 😃 starling x jake is amusing but i really like the idea that theyre just gay best friends trying to hang out. bc gay friendships are that dramatic lmfaoOOO also i love the kids relationship w their parents a lot, i could go into that in more detail but particularly jake and vic, amy and eva, and especially colby with each of their parents i think it is all so so fun

also this isnt related but i dont care for declan vovv but his actor plays my fav character in power rangers and in the recent PR season he was evil for a lot of it and i was like oml playing oculan really inspired something in you LMAOOOOOO but it was quite fun (i love power rangers stream dino fury/cosmic fury on netflix!!!! it has lesbians!! and dinosaurs!! and ollie akana!!)

#MY ANSWER ALRESDY GOT SO LONG SORRY #surprisingly i didnt have any dc stuff on my wrapped??? #i expected more dove cameron at least but it wasnt all that much #the vibes were way off on my spotify this year i guess 😭 #gcwca secret santa

spell homestuck

GOD. THIS IS SO MUCH LONGER THAN TWO FACE. i typed too much and theres too many qs so under the cut it goes

H - What is your favorite source text for fandom stuff (e.g., TV shows, movies, books, anime, Western animation, etc.)?

books!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or....... i guess comics, these days, but i HATE READING COMICS they juST HAVE MORE COMPELLING FANDOMS. book fandoms are PUNY nad everyone is STUPID. youd think actual literary fandoms would have reading comprehension and understanding of literary critique but no!!!!!!!!!!!!! its literally my eternal fuckign struggle. somehow comic fandoms hit the perfect medium between compelling, readable content and the enthusiasm of cartoon fans without the childishness of cartoon fans

O - Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?

this isnt really a thing i do. the only time i associate characters w songs is my own ocs. barbies theme is miltons tower from the what remains of edith finch soundtrack!

M - Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.

i have also never really been one to project myself into stories. its just not how i consume media. i think sollux and rose already closely resemble the kinds of friends i make, so maybe them?

E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom? If so, what?

(freddy fazbear vc) vanessa.... ive done things, im not proud of.

i dont even know if i want to answer this question bc its so fucking humiliating LKJSNDLFSDNFSDF the truth is yes. i am solely responsible for. a lot. particularly in the pjo fandom. i created several crackships ground up all on my own way back in 2014 and developed a following for them and i. dont wantto tell you what those ships were. LSKJDFNSLDJNSDFSDDF ive also pioneered many ship tags for other fandoms and i ship a lot of rarepairs and stuff but i dont think im RESPONSIBLE for them?? in that some ppl already were into them/talking abotu them or tht theyre still not popular (augh. to the ones that became popular) but i AM liTERALLY responsible for some crack shit in the pjo fandom and its. it haunts me sometimes. i dont want to talk about it. IF YOU REMEMBER WHAT I DID NO YOU DONT

S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged)

this is so vague. my headcanons are shifting and nebulous and aus are my constant companion in everything, but uhhhhhhghhusjkdjnsdg i think. roxy writes the same way dave draws comics. its extremely memey and meta and self aware and largely just for the personal lolz, and were all doing her a disservice by pretending her writing looks like roses, when in reality dirk is probably the one whod make comics the way rose makes books (which is probably why he doesnt make comics). its more of that thing where roxy and dave are the same and rose and dirk are the same ykwim. well YOU dont corvus but im sure someone else does

T - Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?

jason takes after bruce in terms of like. adopting entirely too many kids. he broods

U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites.

harvey is a heartwrenching character when written well, with a complicated view of morality, heartbreaking ties to our main hero, and a lot of internal conflict. something about such a hopeful character deadset on making a different in the system becoming a victim of it, and the potential he has as a vehicle for critiquing the law.

percy is my favorite character from pjo bc it was the very first time in my life i ever read a book and saw myself in it. hes aggressive, impulsive, and rebellious, he fidgets and has a hard time standing still, he acts on emotion without always thinking it through, he gets in trouble in school and hands his mom a murder weapon to kill his stepdad, hes just... hes a lot of the things ive always gotten in trouble for, things i couldnt help being, and hes a hero. he means everything to me.

vriska, i will maintain until the day i die, is one of the best homestuck characters- maybe just characters?- ever written. shes dramatic, shes impulsive, shes manipulative and mean and creative, and shes just so messy about it. shes a mean girl in a way that feels real, where her trauma impacts and shapes her as a person, and shes complex, with warring wants, and people she cares about, and dreams, and shes so messy. shes rough and rude and shes doing what SHE wants to, being a version of herself that feels right to HER, rather than some caricature of the hot badass evil lady. shes thirteen!! and she FEELS thirteen. shes a thirteen year old weird girl who is kind of an asshole, and she means literally fucking everything to me. shes a pirate!!!!! shes a swashbuckling badass dressing up in her larping outfit and yelling at her friends on the playground to swab the deck and she is the bestest ever, the end.

i didnt mean for each one of these to be longer than the last but here we are.

C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.

i hate jdedave peace and love it just feels weird as hell to me. dave, for the most part, is hyper respectful of other peoples choices and boundaries but when it comes to jade hes always trying to mke choices for her, to protect her, and it gets to the point where even jade points out how much it bugs her. jades crush on dave also seems to come from a place of misunderstanding to me, admiring a lot of the parts of himself that he exaggerates and pretends to care about as a result of trauma. it always felt like a kid crush that they shouldve grown out of with time. dave also just sort of seems to... go along with whatever romantic relationships people push him into at that age, rolling with whoever flirts with him jsut bc hes trying to maintain the image of a player, so its really hard to take him seriously any time he hits on someone?

that is just my interpretation of it tho

K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?

well. i havent finished my reread of homestuck, so that feels difficult to comment on just yet, bc im sure ill have a different opinion when i do finish it. no one in dc gets character arc bc theyre all just undone immediately, so thats like. yeah. and in pjo the arcs are pretty weak bc 1) kids books and 2) RICK UNDOES THEM ALL. AUGH. regardless of all of this, i am going to say jason grace. he had a lot of development in like the last two hoo books, or maybe just like.... hints of how he couldve developed? promise? which rick immediately set fire to in toa when he killed him, but fUCKING WHATEVER. UGH.

anyway actually tho eleanor from the good place. bisexual icon. queen. probably one of the best character arcs of all time. the episode w her mom has some of the most powerful fucking dialogue ever and i think about it. all the time. i should rewatch the good place.....

i know you do a bunch of genshin stuff now but i was reading through your old dr posts and i was wondering if u had any more autistic kris headcanons :0

as I've said i dont really know a whole lot about being autistic so im projecting 99% of the time (all the time) but heres some more yeah 🙌

- auditory processing disorder gang... especially when its too loud or theres too many things going on at once they will literally not understand or Hear anything. even if you are right in front of them

- they really love music though. and by music usually just one song they repeat over and over and over and if not listening to that they want everything to be quiet. who knows, they mightve contributed the 367 listens a song got on a platform ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

- maybe this is more adhd but how they go about interests is that they can only ever have one. so one focus at a time, and whatever happens to the previous interest is just completely forgotten and maybe even slightly dislike depending on how they got over it or whatever else they associate it with. and they absolutely burn through these interests. just nonstop consumption of something, basically becomes their whole personality for a while, then a more mild period where they take their time, a weird time where they may slightly dislike it and start finding something new to scratch their brain

jedidiah 4 the character thing :3

GOTTA GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!!!!!!!

fav thing about them: ohhhh man theres so much . id have to say how Real he feels . like he can do and say some awful mean things but it never feels liek conflict just for the sake of conflict or him just Decidin to be cruel it all links back to his feelings and his guilt and his fears and like . hes just so Real in a gutwrenching way both for the better and for the worse

least fav thing about them: i mean . the ableism . thats kind of a copout answer though so instead of smt basic like "i dont like that he avoided sydney" or whateva ill say that i think he shouldnt have gotten together with sydney as soon as he did that fucker needs SOOO much healing first . but i think thatll be explored given that they have a couples therapist in s2 so thats not like a writing flaw i dont think unless its fumbled which i doubt it will be

favorite line: "I couldn’t handle the body. I can’t handle the body. I walk away from the body. And most nights I don’t think about it… but sometimes there’s a rumbling under my desk, cold and distant like metal wheels through the mountain, spinning like the hands on the clocks that — if I could just know if I could just know if I could just know if I could just know if I could just know if I could just know—" girl that is ocd!!!!!! u suffer . anyway i genuinely had to pause the ep and take a break after this line something about it . oh my god

fav friendship: i LOVE LOVE LOVE his friendship with yvonne i think its so fun and whimsical i love gamer girls bonding . also him having a queerplatonic relationship with juniper is one of my fav hcs hehehe

fav ship: you KNOW its sydidiah . you KNOW . second place is jeddieann and soridiah (obvs to anyone whos spoken to me for longer than five seconds) but i am literally deranged about sydidiah

least fav ship: i havent seen one that exceptionally bothered me . people dont Ship jedidiah that much with people besides sydney from what ive seen . like i could be like "oh tid be shitty to ship him w elijah or wahtever" but like that seems like im making smt up to get mad at lmao if anyone ships that or anything else id be annoyed abt ive never seen it

random hc: hmmmmm. in sydneys major huge homestuck phase he spent a whole all-nighter listening to an absurd amount of homestuck fansongs in an attempt to like . shoot an understanding of the story into his veins without having to Actually read it all the way thru bc its so fucking long . this just made him way more confused

unpopular opinion: whatsss an unpopular opinion i have . taps my jaw and thinks and ponders . people ignore jedidiahs ableism a lot and the pervasive ways it relates to many many Many aspects of their dynamic but thats not so unpopular of an opinion so ill be a little spicier about it and say that i think even among the people who DO comprehend jedidiahs ableism and the way it impacts their relationship theyyy. kinda ignore the ableism of literally any other person besides lucille? like jedidiah becomes kinda the scapegoat for all the ableism in the narrative and like yes we should discuss the ways jedidiahs ableism impacts the narrative thats true!! however if youre going to discuss that but not talk about say elijah or salem or once s2 comes out likely adam as well or what have u . what is tha point . this is not me defending jedidiah or saying oh people are too harsh on my blorbo ): ): ): we SHOULD discuss jedidiahs ableism but i feel like its not That unpopular of an opinion that we should acknowledge jeddies ableism even if some people dont really follow through on Doing so in Practice yk

song i associate with them: oh my godddddd cry for judas . oh my God is that hte jedidiah song of all time

#u can tell im insnae abt him bc this is fucking forever long

oh this one is so tough because i love them all in their own ways. before archie the musical i would prooooobably say the heathers episode- it's the one i default to showing friends when they want to catch a glimpse of the show's campiness- but in a post-archie-the-musical-world, well, how can i not say archie the musical <3 but every one of them is so beautiful in its own merit. i remember watching carrie air when i was like idk 16? and being forever changed by cheryl dousing herself in blood. heathers i've seen so many times i could quote it line for line. hedwig has one of my favorite songs the cast has done (origin of love) and i listen to it a lot bc like wow... jughead's verse is so genuinely good the whole thing just REALLY gets ya. next to normal has some of the most fun numbers imo like u can tell they had a lot of fun with it. the pussycats ep is SO GODDAMN FUN every moment of it is a joy to watch. american pyscho was admittedly my least favorite but they did make up for it with betty gay moments (and i think it's funny ras did his own musical). AND THEN THERES ARCHIE THE MUSICAL MY BELOVED ARCHIE THE MUSICAL AND WELL ARCHIE THE MUSICAL IS LIKE MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE <3

9. Which character has your favorite costuming? What's your favorite outfit they wore?

i answered this here but im answering it MORE because i want to talk about how i want these jugkets (jughead jackets) too. this isnt even about costuming anymore its about i can never own too many things that are plaid. YES they all look pretty much the same but YES i would wear all of them on rotation. give me your jackets and sweaters and such, jughead

20. What is your favorite quote?

of course i have to go for a classic because camila is a fucking STAR for delivering "word of my exploits serving nick his comeuppance has seeped into the demimonde of mobsters and molls my father used to associate with" she literally should have won an emmy for that. also forever a fan of "im cuckoo bananas for you, obvi!" because it's another beautiful classic. and also every single time betty has ever said "bitch" it's always delivered so passionately. so beautifully. emmys all around

#also im genuinely fond of epic highs and lows of high school football because it's so... like it's so ARCHIE. is the thing #the absolute sincerity the painful earnestness as he says something that yes is ridiculous. is the POINT of it!!! #it getting memed to death doesnt matter its supposed to be campy and it was supposed to be like archie after everything is still EARNEST! #i will always defend you epic highs and lows of high school football #THANK U FOR LETTING ME TALK ABOUT THE MUSICAL EPS I LOVE THEM DEARLY (insufferable theater kid at heart) #thejugheadparadox #riverdale #ask

LIAM MY BELOVED 💚📎💢🍁🙈❇️

PAULIE 💔📎💤🍁🙉✏️

WOOOOO THANKS SO MUCH FOR SENDING SO MANY I HAVE SO MUCH FUN TALKING ABT MY CHARACTERS WAHHH <3

( putting under the cut cuz theres a Lot )

LIAM:

💚 GREEN HEART - what things make your oc feel comforted? hugs, kisses, food?

liam is a physical affection kinda guy !! he needs hugs 2 survive. he also stims often so that definitely helps him feel better!

2. 📎 PAPERCLIP - a random fact.

he's the tallest oc i have! next to benjamin, paulie, and malorin (who is THE tallest in demon form) ^_^

3. 💢 ANGER - what are some habits they have that will take some getting used to?

he's a passionate n caring person that has a very strong sense of justice, which can lead to him butting heads with the people around him. he just needs to be talked to and calmed down so he can communicate without getting overwhelmed ^^

4. 🍁 MAPLE LEAF - what is their favourite season? why?

summer baby suns out guns out

5. 🙈 SEE-NO-EVIL - whats a side of your oc that they don’t want to show other people?

he doesnt like being seen as violent or mean, but just like any person he is bound to feel rage. and boy does he feel rage towards jason post his coronation cough cough

6. ❇️ SPARKLE - what is their most prized possession? what do they value?

liam doesnt care about the cost of things, just how much love was put into making it! he really likes custom made jewlery though :3

PAULIE:

💔 BROKEN HEART - what could their partner do that would absolutely break their heart?

i think it takes a lot to get paulie to really be hurt by you, you'd have to do something really bad or just completely ignore all of his love languages (his cooking, his music, him constantly having his hands on u, etc) to make him feel that brokenhearted :(

📎 PAPERCLIP - a random fact.

paulie's dad stepped out when he was about 9 or 10, and not long after that paulie found his adoptive younger brother, lee. lee was just an infant kitten abandoned that young paulie found and absolutely refused to let go . he cried to his mother that 'someone had just abandoned their son, and wasnt ever gonna come back. so someone needed to make sure that he will never be abandoned again.' which was enough to convince his mom to take in lee

💤 SLEEPING - do they fall asleep easily? what helps them sleep

paulie can fall asleep just fine in most scenarios, he just tends to be groggy when he wakes up!!

🍁 MAPLE LEAF - what is their favourite season? why?

fall !! he likes the crisp air and the colors <3

🙉 HEAR-NO-EVIL - what is the worse thing your oc could hear from someone?

he hates being compared to his father, and he gets REAAAAALLY angry when anyone says nasty shit abt the people he loves. one of the few scenarios he loses control of his temper

✏️ PENCIL - is there a particular quote / lyric that you associate with them?

LITERALLY ALL OF LINE WITHOUT A HOOK BY RICKY MONTGOMERY that song is 1000000% paulie. its so paulie .

#asks #anonymous #oc: liam #oc: paulie

[averyspoopedcorgi]

for the ask game would you like to do eichi and mayhaps even.. tatsumi…….

atsa!!! i knew u were gonna give me tattsun lol but eichi is a welcomed suprise

i hope u dont mind some of my answers being short or shallow cuz I haven read many stories and most of my character thoughts are gibberish :,)

ok ei-chan first

favourite thing about them: his whole character, how complex he is the guilt he feels for his actions I like that he isn't some irredramable villain but just somebody who wanted to save something he loved dearly by any means possible (I hope I'm correct about the last part I haven't read about the war in a while) also half the batshit insane stuff he says is hilarious

least favourite thing about them : I have nothing I particularly hate about him I suppose he monologues are so long sometimes they make me wanna take a break from reading lol

favorite line: pretty mission epilogue only comes to mind from what I've read

brOTP: hell dorm but mostly aira, something about them bonding over their love for idols also chiaki i wanna see them interact more

OTP: the emperor and the his funny clown (wataei) have a vice on my heart

nOTP: romantic reichi or just him with any oddballs that aren't wataru or keito x eichi idk why they just rub me the wrong way

ramdom hadcanon: hell dorm movie which in reality r just aira and eichi watching idol mvs while rei snnnzzs

unpopular opinion: STOP MAKING JOKES ABOUT HIM DYING WHATS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE YES YOU CAN HATE FOR THE SHIT HE PULLED BUT SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO REALISE THAT YOURE TALKING ABOUT A CHRONICALLY ILL MAN DOSENT MATTER IF HES FICTIONAL <- mad about marriage poll

song i associate with them: im soso sorry ive got nothing ; ;

favorite picture of them: babygirl or tiger eichi i cant pick

ok tattsun time!!!

favorite thing about them: the way he talks about his faith is so interesting....youd expect him to spout bible verses left and right but after reading feather touch and his conversation with aira just reshaped him in my mind, theres so much i like about him but this i what really scratched my brain

(also more meta but i like that him being chirstian isnt treated as a joke if that makes any sense )

also also vehicular manslaughter

least favorite thing about them: bastard will not come home no matter how hard i try. i wasted hot limit funds on his revival still nothing. i have every alk five star except him. what did i do tattsun senpai/hj

favorite line: feather touch but specifically the convo with aira. thats all

brOTP: aira and tatsumi. literally the senpai-kouhai friendship of all time

also christian rock drom with koga and leon theryre all besties canonically what else does a guy need (also they take leon on walks together and i think everyone should know that)

OTP: gee i wonder what it is *standing in front of a pile of tatsumayo fanart*

nOTP: idk really??? any of his juniors ig

random headcanon: koga taught him how to play the guitar!!! now you can always hear the distinct sound of christian rock from thier dorm room

he loves dogs like really loves dogs but could never own one cuz he lived in a church for most of his childhood so hes beyond overjoyed to share a dorm with leon

also cane user and bisexual tatsumi is soso real to me

unpopular opinion: stop treating him like hes some white queerphobic christian whats wrong with you people stop acting ;like every christian is terrible

song i associate with them: ah abuseken's christ and guchiry's orthodoxia

favorite picture of them: naur who let bro drive

#again im sorry if any of tjis sounds wrong im no good at getting my thoughts across TT #proxys barkings

[windypuddle]

i associate you with enstars... specifically all the read head dudes and that pathetic looking one with the longer dark hair. not entirely sure why. OH and also the fish guy. he reminds me of you

lolan theres like 4 red head dudes. 7 if you count magenta and 10 if you count pink. ajkwwkjsdah. assuming u mean the amagis though since hiiro is my pfp

then there's hiiros brother rinne and also kuro and natsume for proper red heads. (ignoring the streaks in kuro and natsumes hair ig)

(bonus shu itsuki)

i think you would like natsume tbh. hes like what if i was evil and ran at you at very fast speeds and sora and tsumugi and all the eccentrics group hug him. hes a magician. hes a scientist. hes trans.

tsukasa is basically a redhead but just slightly pink. idk.

i really dont think you meant ibara or mao but kohaku is red-adjacent (pink)

(dont ask me what happens in noir neige idk. but the song is a banger. and so is lovrinac which i permanently associate with noir neige now. happy lovrinac saturday a day late)

im going to assume when you said pathetic looking one with the longer dark hair you meant this loser. rei sakuma the babygirl of all time he has so many problems. other option is mayoi (see below) who actually. is the reason i got into enstars. because of his design. not the biggest fan of his character though rip

"OH and also the fish guy. he reminds me of you" im going to take this as a compliment and dont look too hard at his issues. kanata shinkai the fish ever

i just used this as an excuse to infodump enstars character on you but ty for the ask!!

#puddle answers #long post #enstars posting

[puphoods]

ok so emoji ask thing. for claire my Beloved. 🍩 donut 🌙 moon 🍁 maple leaf ✏️ pencil 🎵 music note 🌪️ tornado and 🌠 shooting star. i will not apologise for so many. i love this guy

claire. sweep.

🍩 DONUT - favourite sweet treat? he doesnt really have a huge sweet tooth but i think he likes like. pastries and stuff... also honey. get this guy some baklava

🌙 MOON - what is your oc's greatest wish? how far are they willing to go for it? this is hard to answer... i think his "greatest wish" is justto have a reliable and loving family + to have the people around him safe. ive talked about that maintaining the life he builds for himself is the most important thing to him once he has it and that later in his story/past where it would end and later into his life his family + friends are his main focus. but before annies death her inclusion in his life is a large part of that as well even though his attempts to give her more chances and to allow her time to change were putting himself and the others in danger. so who can say...

🍁 MAPLE LEAF - what is their favourite season? why? probably... spring

✏️ PENCIL - is there a particular quote / lyric that you associate with them? eek not really... 😔😔😔

🎵 MUSIC NOTE - what is their playlist like? their favourite artists? do you associate a particular song with them? my short and pitiful claire playlist...

knives out by radiohead too but thats on annies playlist... its relevant to both of them though. idk what kind of music he would listen to probably his taste would not be like whats on his playlist though. i really need to go through this again and sort it and find more songs to add i feel like its much weaker than my other oc playlists even if its longer than some (guy who struggles so so much to find oc music)

🌪️ TORNADO - what is the biggest change you've ever made to them? how have they changed from their original version? visually i dont think hes changed much... i dont draw him w makeup anymore and his hair is much thinner/straighter bc i feel it suits him better. character wise hes much less angry + hostile to others... especially after he has more of a support group. he originally was very abrasive and mean and that didnt change all that much as time went on and he is still not the friendliest or nicest person but its toned down a bit. this is a funny one to answer rn though bc i currently want to really overhaul my ocs and theres a few things about him i want to change up but im not quite sure how im gonna go about that yet

🌠 SHOOTING STAR - if they could make any wish with no repercussions, what wish would they make? im taking this as much more fantastical than the other wish question. i think it depends when u asked him this... when he is with the fosters it would just be to be gone. through a lot of the story and for a while after her death it would be for annie to come around and listen to what he has to say... and of course what i said earlier

#answered asks #claire #my ocs #as u may gather from the playlist a lot of his character + mindset is just. denial and refusal to accept the truth #about things that he doesnt want to be true. hes very stubborn and its why it takes so long for the actual confrontation between him and #annie to happen

[petewentzisblack1312]

okay so since you know more than sarah could u give more info?? because i love learning about pete and his blackness as its literally never talked about ANYWHERE else. like thank god for tumblr tbh. sarah is genuinely the only reason ive ever known anything about him in that way but its always been limited so thats why i sent her the ask. i didnt even know ur blog. sorry for sending to her instead of you!!!

oh its fine!! im pretty new on the scene technically. while sarah and i were in the fob fandom at the same time in 2015 ish, i actually left tumblr completely and recently came back!! but anyway, lets talk about petes melanin (my beloved <3)

theres a pretty pervasive narrative, not just around pete but around any black and especially biracial celebrities that theyre ashamed of their blackness or arent "really" black. theres like. a looooooooooong conversation to be had within the black community about this, but to tldr it, the assumption is if you dont look black, you arent black, which for a lot of reasons isnt exactly the case. with him in particular theres a lot of stuff that contributes to this.

most people do not associate the alternative scene and emo especially with black people, so its easy to overlook a lot if someone isnt SUPER obviously black. pete has other ethnic features, like his nose, and is recognizable visually as black except for his skin color. except thats because hes been artificially lightened in photoshoots due to editing and (ALLEGEDLY AND POSSIBLY) lighter foundations. further, he relaxed his hair, which takes away another ethnic feature of his.

there is another aspect to this, which is that black people tan, noticeably and by several shades. you will not notice it if youre like seeing them continuously throughout the year, but as someone who lives in the caribbean and has spent some time in the states, the difference is stark enough to be noticeable. a lightskinned black person may look MUCH paler in the winter compared to in the summer.

in addition, the wealthier you are, the less time you tend to spend in the sun, so ive noticed that black celebrities tend to get lighter as they gain notoriety just because they have like more resources. the reason people from the caribbean tend to become lighter when we go to the states isnt because of less sun, during the summer thats not at all the case, its because the US is more developed so you dont HAVE to spend as much time in the sun.

besides that, hes like genuinely very loud and proud about being black, but all of those attempts are met with backlash. there was the reaction to his natural hair, the reaction to him with cornrows, and the reaction to his very emotional rant about the murder of george floyd. it happens in fobs music too!! ioh for example draws a lot of influence from choral and hymnal arrangements and soul music, not to mention jay-z and babyface working on the album itself, which led to them being labelled sell outs. they also just generally work with rappers more, with lil wayne on tiffany blews and big sean on srar, both of which also led to them being called sell outs. ab/ap as an album draws influence from rap/trap and mixtape culture in the way it was written (thats why its got so many samples), and subsequently got remixed. remember what happened next? mania draws a lot of influence from calypso and dancehall music and features burna boy singing in yoruba patois. that one led to the featured artist getting harassed en masse and multiple (worse) edits of the song without him on it. i dont like it here 💞.

that last point brings me to the fact that while pete definitely loves hardcore and metal, he also has always loved reggae and dancehall. hes half jamaican, spent time in jamaica as a child and listened to his grandparents records, which were. well. reggae and calypso and a little dancehall. if anyone ASKS him about it, hell talk about it willingly and candidly, theres an entire interview from during the hiatus (which i can no longer find rip) where hes asked about and talks about going natural and spending time in jamaica and listening to reggae, which heavily influenced black cards. he visited jamaica during the hiatus! although its unclear if he visited family since literally every news outlet that mentioned it was like "oh tropical getaway <3" unaware that thats where his folks are from

also heres that interview snippet sarah mentioned! i have the full page, its about the early days which is funny bc its just before futct.

theres also some poetry on sarahs blog that she found years ago thats VERY black. i dont like making it easy to find for nonblack people simply because the first time it was unearthed mostly white people were talking about it and the meaning of it went way over everyone elses head so i try to make sure that if people start talking about it they know going in that its about being black and biracial specifically and so that black fans dont feel the way i did when it first surfaced lol

all of this emphatically points to pete genuinely loving his blackness and not trying to hide it and it being something that majorly shaped his life, but genuinely being unable to talk about it bc of public perception.

sorry for talking your ear off!! if you have any specific qs i almost certainly have answers!!

#dils declares #i just kept going. #i just KEPT. GOING.

hi !! i saw the request for the 1k event !! congratulations btw im so happy for you i really enjoy your writing !! i was wondering if i could get the compatibility headcanon ,, ?

i choose akaashi from haikyuu :DD and uh a little bit abt me !! :

well, i think im generally a quiet person ?? (but im funny as FUCK) i dont like talking a lot especially when its the morning but i really find solace in silence. im sure when someone gets to know me, id probably talk about so many random things. i dont think i have many friends and im sure the people who are somewhat close to me would say that im "a loud n extroverted person" though lol. i also write and draw when i have the time; i only write when theres something i want to say but would be weird if i said it outloud myself (idk if that makes sense im SO SORRYJFKD) i play the guitar and i care for a lot of plants too !! i have a TERRIBLE sleeping schedule but i never really get tired during the day. i fall asleep easily in class though lol. memes r what keeps me from losing my insanity LMFAOO. also idk if this would help but i associate akaashi with the song sparks by coldplay and i just cant express how much that song reminds me of akaashi. something about it makes me think of all the incredibly mundane things he'd do that would bring so much warmth to my heart.

okay thats about it !! thank u so so much for this !! <33

I’m glad u enjoy my writing 🤗 enjoy <3

compatibility headcanons with:

akaashi keiji

Akaashi is used to events that can be exciting or loud but he certainly doesn’t mind those quiet moments where he can just ponder

and he loves to do it with you 

so being able to enjoy his morning drink and each other’s presence while watching the sun rise is literally the only way he wants to start his day

but he still loves the random things you talk about, your weird conversations with each other, he cherishes them all

he knows you like to write so he always buys you the best leather notebooks or high quality ones for you

he’ll take care of your plants when you’re not around and if you’ve got names for them, he’ll water them and quietly whisper “drink up [plant name]”

he understands the purpose of memes but doesn’t rly use them, though he does admit that your text convos are much funnier when you use them

he’s aware of your sleep schedule and has tried ways to get you to sleep with him but he knows that even if he drags you to cuddle him, you’ll just lay there awake

your relationship has those little moments where you can’t help but look at each other with the tiniest smiles and just breathe the air around you

the two of you understand each other and complete each other so well, he wouldn’t have it any other way 

###

a/n: aaah yeah I love that song too!!
