🎧 for the ask game please? i'd like some song recommendations because my playlist is like 80% kpop help-
but also!!! hihi savv i hope you're having a good day today ily ♡♡♡
OMG HI XANTHE!!!! 💙✨ i hope ur having a good day too!!!!
okay im gonna go ahead and give u a few bc ur the only one to send one in so far and i have So Many songs i want to write fic for sjdjdkkddk (narrowing it down to three was actually really hard lmao)
first up i'm gonna give you i will by mitski
so stay with me / hold my hand / there's no need / to be brave
and all the quiet things you bear / seal them up with care / no one needs to know they're there / for i will hold them for you
'cause all i've ever wanted is here / all i ever wanted / all i want is / always you / it's always you
and we're not out of the tunnel / i bet you, though, there's an end
and while you sleep / i'll be scared / so by the time you wake / i'll be brave
this makes me want to write qpr reader x member emotional hurt/comfort. like, just them being vulnerable with each other and holding each other (both physically and emotionally) and reader knowing that while they worry for member, member worries just as much over them and. idk, being brave for the people you care about and having it not automatically equal romance :')
(also mitski's one of my all-time fav artists so if u like this song u should check out her entire discography, her songs make me Feel Things, in like, the experiencing the human condition kinda way)
[putting the rest under a readmore bc i apparently have a lot to say OOPS]
okay next i'm gonna give you sweet time by porter robinson
[cw: death mention]
and i feel so stupid / 'cause i wasn't scared of this before / but since i met you / i don't wanna die no more
so take a long time / 'cause, oh, the world is lucky to be your home, i know / i need a next life / 'cause i'm not satisfied to know you just once / so take a long time
this makes me want to write some kind of reincarnation/reality-hopping au So Bad. just like, the idea of meeting someone and wanting to know everything about them, and not just the them of now, but every them that could and would have been. idk what the plot would actually be, but [member of choice] needs to find you in all these different realities for Reasons and in getting to know all these yous, comes to love all these different parts of you. sometimes it's romantic, sometimes it's platonic, but it's always with the same dedication
but yeah. "i need a next life, 'cause i'm not satisfied to know you just once" ughhhh. love this so much
(also another favorite artist of mine, specifically his album 'nurture'. listen to that shit on repeat so often lol)
okay lastly im gonna give you it happened quiet by aurora
[cw: blood mention]
feathers falling out of the pillow / as if time is standing still / i can’t remember much more / but i know it happened quiet / so quiet
you fell apart / like a stone can be broken into sand / a thousand pieces / spread across a crying land / and you can’t remember that day / but you know it happened quiet / so quiet / words falling out through the window / all that remains is a silent call / is the earth colored red? / as i land like a flower on the meadow
are your dreams as dead as they seem? / don’t you speak over my voice / i will return from the shadows / and i’ll bleed in your bed / turn it red / like the ground outside your window / love is wild
i would love love LOVE to write a dark fairytale/fantasy fic for this, like!!! god, the vibe of this song feels like those stories that start off soft and fairytale-esque but by the end you realize it's actually a dark kind of warning and not a happily-ever-after.
so the basic idea i have would be something along the lines of: reader was once like, a forest guardian or something, and at one point a human came along and was like "let me live in ur forest pls" and they were skeptical but eventually let them as long as they didn't hurt the forest at all. so the human builds themself a little cottage in the clearing and doesn't hurt the forest and so reader lets themself start to get to know the human and oops! they end up falling in love (bad idea) and in a moment of vulnerability, the human attacks them, nearly kills them, and curses them so they can't protect their forest anymore. bc lo and behold, little human is actually a greedy bastard from the nearby kingdom wanting to take all the resources here.
fast forward a bit, and [member of choice] who has some magical abilities, starts getting really weird dreams about the forest on the other side of the kingdom. cue member being enlisted to help reader enact their revenge plot to save their forest (and also maybe reach some righteous havoc while they're at it) and they become best 'villain' bros the end :')
(once again, love aurora so much, i highly recommend checking out her discography haha)
send me a “🎧” and i’ll give you a non-kpop song i want to someday use as fic inspiration

27 for the ask game!
27: 入阵曲 by 五月天 (Song of Battle Entry by Mayday)
泪未干 心未凉 是什么依然在滚烫?
入阵曲 伴我无悔的狂妄
夜已央 天已亮 白昼隐没了星光
像我们 都终将 葬身历史的洪荒
当世人 都遗忘 我血液曾为谁滚烫
入阵曲 伴我无悔的狂妄
入阵曲 只因恨铁不成钢
(The tears haven’t dried, the heart hasn’t cooled, what is it that still boils?
The song of battle entry accompanies my unregretting frenzy
The night is already over, the sky is already bright, day has drowned out the starlight
Just like us, doomed to be buried in the flood of history
When the world forgets for whom my blood boils for
The song of battle entry accompanies my unregretting frenzy
The song of battle entry, if only because of high hopes faced with unmet expectations)
translating these lyrics... suck ass. but also these lyrics are so fucking raw i NEED yall to at least know kinda what they mean even though 80% of the rawness got lost in translation. drawing this also sucked ass. but in a different equally unpleasant way.
also version with the outlines and the reference pic under the cut

I have to ask you, as the certified language playlist expert of tumblr if you have any musical recommendations for me. I am slightly in love (huge understatement) with the sound of the Russian band Shortparis but nothing else I know hits the same. Is there anything out there that will heal my art punk soul?
--- all the best, Sasha
muuum i'm the certified language playlist expert of tumblr nowww
hhasjkdfdj hi Sasha!! first of all, I just listened to their top songs and they slap?? I can totally feel why nothing else would hit the same 😭 their music has a very specific vibe to it, but I've tried to find similar-ish sounds anyway:

Петля Пристрастия, I don't know their discography very well but you might want to check it out; esp. their album Фобос
По пятам by Лиса
3x3 by Gruppa Skryptonite, 104, T-Fest
Yamakasi by Miyagi & Andy Panda
in other languages:
Ул by AIGEL (tatar)
Ophelia by George Taylor (english)
Neturėjom Dainos by Solo Ansamblis (lithuanian)
Everything In Its Right Place by Radiohead (english)
Ah, Anne by Augusta (chuvash)
BIBA by Farasat Anees, Slick Trick, Toshi (urdu)
Qustai by Qudyr (qazaq)
Süpürgesi Yoncadan by Altin Gül (turkish)
Rat In The Trap by GIRIBOY (korean, english)
Alala by CSS (portuguese)
Oh My God by Sevdaliza (english)
Усе песні спетыя by AKUTE (belarusian)
Cradles by Sub Urban (english)

Truly hope this helps 🙏
