OK. idk whether the last ask sent just without links, or it didnt send at all, so im gonna retype it. if you got it feel free to ignore this lol. links are at the end IF you want to listen to these to see what the hell in talking about, but absolutely no requirement/expectation/pressure to listen, its just for ease of access in the case you do

so basically for arikado’s whole arc for this story its him becoming his father, right? ill revisit that thought later

so first of all, alucard has a theme. we already have a basis of characters which sort of turn against everything they once stood for for one reason (possessed by evil wizard) or another, having motifs of their main theme sort of used in a way that almost bastardizes the main theme, so i think for phase 1 of the fight, that would work rlly well for arikado. his main theme is dracula’s castle, and his secondary is tragic prince, so we would take that and sort of bastardize it, make it sound unnerving and uncomfortable to the listener on a subconscious level. so lets look at how to do that in the first place.

with richter’s theme, divine bloodlines, the main motif is taken from that and put against a backdrop of much more unnerving music. blood relations, which keeps parts of divine bloodlines, sounds much darker, because it takes the piece and puts it in a very unusual signature that has less of a sense of innate balance to the listener (5/4) to kind of throw you off and make you feel wrong-footed. it also uses the percussion to sort of drive this unnatural beat a bit, so already it sounds sort of… wrong. on top of that, you transcribe the motifs used to a minor key, transforming it from a more heroic, triumphant piece, to one of more of a… sad and upsetting feeling. almost like a hero disgraced. it also changes the instrumentation a bit to more eerie sounding instruments, or instruments that can purvey the eerier sound better. It changes some of the chords slightly to add discord, and adds some quick and staccato harmonies, which utilize chords that, if all notes were played at once, would sound very uncomfortable. some of the scale (for lack of a better term) sequences are also used to build tension and add to the pervading sense of wrongness, ending in a way that doesn’t quite Sound right or complete

theres also other ways of making songs that sound uncomfortable or unnerving, as are utilized in songs like pagoda of the misty moon, which, yes, still utilizes the discordant chords of course, but it also utilizes the very, very deep piano part to add to the atmosphere, and utilizes what sounds to be runs with accidentals, as well as the timpani, and the tremolo on the violins, as well as, while being in what sounds like 3/4, uses percussion to make it SOUND like an abnormal time signature. so there are a lot of different ways to go about creating that type of atmosphere, and what youd utilize depends on the vibe youre going for, plus also the personality of the character themselves. for example, the deep piano part i think COULD work very well for arikado personally, but its up to debate.

(theres also the underlying theme of boss themes in general having weird time signatures, specifically BECAUSE while you subconsciously seek out cues from music, its much harder to do that with weird time signatures. 5/4 with richter, and, with other franchises, 13/7 or something like that for ganondorf from oot, and for marx in kirby’s games, the time signature changes every measure. thats not SUPER important, i just think its very neat :) )

so effectively, in writing an arrangement of this, you might utilize some of those ideas (and maybe do further research on other themes in music that make the viewer uncomfortable). THAT would be the best way to create a bastardization of the song.

there might be other aspects to consider, to give the song a feeling of repetition, as if repeating the past, but not SO repetitious that it bores the listener. this being a boss battle song already lends itself to repetition as that is the nature of boss battle themes, so ill skip that.

this may be difficult to do bc, as is the nature of boss battles being that you can transition to the 2nd phase at any time, BUT i do think itd be VERY interesting to have a very seamless transition into the 2nd phase theme, which would be dance of illusions, which. as you may or may not know. is draculas main and most iconic boss battle theme :) . id probably give it 4 repeats instead of the 2 that tends(?) to be more typical with that song, to add to the building tension and sense of dread, ESPECIALLY for those that recognize the song, either consciously or subconsciously, as they realize what song is playing. theres a few versions of that song but most likely itd take a lot more inspiration from the sotn & dos versions more than anything. of course it would utilize the more uneven sound of the intro, which would then lead into the much more balanced, march-like time signature the majority of the song is in. this theme combined with the song of the previous phase, which would utilize the more unnatural rhythm of a time signature like 5/4, COULD also kind of give the impression of like, the turbulence arikado initially feels as he sort of realizes hes becoming his father, transitioning to him accepting and embracing that role, or even more of SOMAS pov of this whole thing, of the discord btw how THEY view arikado vs who he rlly is, with the 2nd phase be more soma accepting who arikado truly is/has become, but thats more of a choose-how-to-interpret-it thing that would be more up to the listener, and would depend more on how you want to develop the story and arikado’s feelings regarding everything. more importantly the use of doi, ESP an arrangement more similar to the sotn doi, symbolizes how much arikado HAS become his father at this point.

these next 2 sections are more… optional.

first would be the prelude, the part that plays during the dialogue leading up to the boss fight. for this i would say it would be best to have a music of slower tempo, with an air of uncertainty, and yet weight and inevitability. not a song from the cv series, but there are two parts of sealed vessel that do this in different ways; first is thw first few seconds of the song, as you have long, tremolo notes held, building up into a chord as you slowly prepare for the actual fight itself. theres also latter half of sealed vessel (2:16-4:34) is a very good example of this. it opens with a slow section where there are two parts playing in a minor chord, playing a very melancholy harmony, which then adds the long, legato, meandering violin run, which repeats itself, slowly adding instruments in a way that makes it sound almost like the piece is slowing down, until it begins a run DOWN the scale into the last either one of these make a good example of how you could build up the emotion to the fight, but that would depend on whether that would be included at all or not.

the second optional part would be something that COULD play at the end of the piece IF you get the good ending. itd be best if the note that doi ends on on its own were one that feels unfinished, unresolved, which works for both endings; in the bad ending, it IS left unfinished, as the cycle continues anew, and never finds a real sarisfying end, it just keeps. going. but with the GOOD ending, you instead have this section added on to the end. revisiting sealed vessel, the very end (starting at about 4:34), there is an ending to the piece that feels tragic, mournful, but complete, which, if mimicked, could symbolize a few things, but i like the idea that its adrian actually being like. allowing himself to truly mourn his father, and feel remorse for his own actions. i think the best thing for this would be to utilize the original, unbastardized, version of dracula’s castle, but in a much slower and more mournful and weighted rendition, to symbolize both his allowing himself to mourn and his regret, but also him potentionally resolving to attempt to return to who he once was, to the version of himself he forgot?

anyways um. i DO want to write an arrangement of this but well see how much energy i have to do that.

also absolutely no expectation of you to listen to All Of These but here are the links if youre curious and want to listen :)

okay fair warning i dont have much to add because i dont know much about music and also youve laid everything out very nicely already but this is very interesting and i am paying lots of attention! dance of illusions isnt my favourite dracula theme but as the one thats most iconic and also the one that tends to appear most, it would be a bit silly if it wasnt used even though id also love to be able to jam dracula appears from loi into things somewhere just for the thrill of things, especially if the end goal is to emphasise a transition between alucard and dracula similar to the one that was already kind of happening in the background

i know even less about how any of it would actually function in practice, but some other themes ive also been hemming and hawing about are the alucard battle theme from legends (a deep cut, but hey) and encounter or big battle from cviii: one because itd be a nasty twist on things (new game new alucard yada yada but also im just a passionate cviii stan in general) and the other because its chronologically speaking sort of the first dracula battle theme and i think that. fits. as i said though, dance of illusions is iconic, so not really replaceable.

im writing this in a bit of a rush (busy but i passed out for 8 hours and feel bad leaving you waiting too long) but i think an important part of all this would be having soma slap some sense into him, seeing as soma is both the one who keeps trying to break draculas own cycle, is the one arikado has arguably used the most, and is also arikados theoretical foil -- personally i feel like soma and arikado are more acquaintances than anything before this, and getting alucard to talk about anything ever was like pulling teeth and im sure arikado is far worse so i couldnt see them really bonding at that point, but in a situation like this maybe it would be more feasible for them to form an actual connection? which ties into the idea of arikado, too, finally letting go of the cycle slash dracula and whatnot.

in the good ending, anyway

that said, julius and yoko are also obviously important, julius for what are probably pretty obvious reasons and yoko as both The Belnades (which is actually detrimental considering, their roles as the belmont and the belnades inherently force them to sort of 'adhere' to the cycular nature of this mess), but also as the one person who, throughout the games, arikado is shown to have the closest relationship with. she knows his identity before anyone else, they may or may not have been cooperating in aos, shes the first to defend his character to soma, etc etc, he even goes and visits her shop to give her the hot gossip in dos lmao. so bring them too ofc

#akumajou dracula #genya arikado #im sooo regular about this says girl who has thought about it hourly for a year straight #im really glad youre getting apparent mileage out of it lmao

I like all types of music, and I consider myself to have a good taste in music. So, I just had a idea for the themes for the Unperson characters:

U!Charlie: A theme that makes you think, "yep, he's the hero, he is the protagonist". The track has to be a reflection of U!Charlie: Apocalyptic Music (to represent the Hero Variant he is), with a subtle arrange of notes denoting sorrow/sadness, because, you know, he doesn't want to be there at all. Some notes can be missing, like his memories until he remembers them. The Showfall theme can be sprinkled about, signifing his conection to them. His leifmotif can be the tune that played when Slime Demon first appeared, to reflect his other roles, mixed with some arrange of notes that denote "hero/protagonist"

U!Sneeg: More Synth music, Post-Apocaliptic Machines Have Taked Over kind. The Showfall Theme would be more present, because he is an "NPC", so they have more influence over him.

U!Ranboo: Techno/Metal music, to denote their biomechanical limbs and their ruthlessness. The music would be more techno than metal when it begins, and in some points only a instrument would play to denote their stealthyness. When angry/hungry/hangry the music is full on metal with some techno touches. The same hero leifmotif that is in U!Charlie theme is in their track, but is this one is distorted, missing chunks. They were the Hero, yes, but not anymore. The Showfall theme is present, in equal ground of presence with Sneeg's theme.

U!Niki: Orquestra with coir with rock-metal/rock. When it first starts, only the violins and maybe a piano with the choir are heard, playing/singing a melancholic song. Little by little, the violins change their notes to that of rising tension. The good thing about violins is that their songs can be sad and also be terrifying. Then, suddenly, coir, piano and violins stop. The rock band starts playing alongside the metals of the orquestra, whilst the string instruments copy the tense drone that the violins were doing. The Showfall theme is more present in her track, even to a point were only the piano plays, orquestra and band going quiet so the piano can play the exact notes that the Showfall theme has, and it continues playing in the background even when orquestra and band continue playing.

Sorry to have written a one-shot length ask! I needed to put my thoughts in "paper". Have a nice one!

I'm a huge instrumental / video game music nerd myself, so I always love hearing people's analyses of leitmotifs and suggestions for types of music that fit a particular character's vibe! Here are some of the songs that I associate most with each of the characters (each of them can be found on the Unperson OST) The Devourer: "Stigmata" by grandson Ranboo: "Devourer" by Aidoneus Charlie: "Just a Game" by Birdy Sneeg: "Now - Connor" from Detroit: Become Human Hetch: "Your Death Will Be My Art" from The Evil Within 2 The Sightless Siren: "Medusa" from Assassin's Creed: Odyssey Niki: "Lung" by Vancouver Sleep Clinic Adam: "My Way" by Chase Holfelder ???: "Brutus" by The Buttress And of course the 'main theme' of the story as a whole is "Unperson" by Nothing But Thieves!

My Celebrity Childhood Friend

Warnings: minor character death, sad feels

Venti x GN!Reader

2k Words

Many years ago, when you were eight years old, you had two very close friends. Their names were Venti and Himmel. The three of you did everything together. You were very close. All of you thought your friendship would be forever and that you would always be close. But, unfortunately, that's not what happened.

One day you and Venti received the news that Himmel had passed away. It was really difficult for both of you to accept the reality of his death, grieve, and move on with your lives. In the end, you couldn’t even help each other. Spending time together only reminded you of how Himmel wasn’t there anymore.

Eventually Venti just couldn’t take it anymore. So his family moved out. Losing Himmel had hurt, but losing Venti too reopened the almost healing wound in your heart. He didn’t even say goodbye because he thought he’d chicken out if he did. And so there you were, friendless, hurt, and feeling very, very alone.

Your only solace was in practicing the piano. The three of you had all been learning instruments and playing together before. The idea was to become a band of sorts together and play music professionally. Himmel played violin, Venti played guitar, and you played piano. Playing the piano was all you had left of them, so you continued playing and practicing it.

Years pass and you move on as much as you can. You make new friends and try new things. Piano is still important to you but you do new things now too. But even with all of this, there’s a part of you that left with Venti and Himmel. The hurt in your heart is no longer a gaping wound. Yet the pain has never truly gone away.

Then one day you hear a familiar voice on the radio. That voice and guitar combo sounded very familiar. It was a good song and you enjoyed listening to it, but you just couldn’t get the feeling of familiarity out of your mind. However, once the radio host introduced the song, you immediately understood. “And that was Soaring Bird by The Bard. Venti really did himself proud on this one…,” they continued, but you were no longer listening.

Venti was on the radio! What could this mean? You hurriedly took out your phone and ran a search. There he was, Venti, also known as The Bard, is a singer/songwriter who rose to fame after a stint on a television talent show a couple months ago. Well, what do you know? Your childhood friend has followed your childhood dream.

Part of you feels left behind, but you accepted that had happened years ago. So instead you decided to be supportive! Suddenly you have a new favorite singer and you just have to have all his albums. Physical copies, so you can display them. Your bedroom walls are covered with posters.

You now have more The Bard themed t-shirts than you have regular shirts. There’s a concert of his you can go to? You’re there. You promote him with everyone you know. If you hadn’t converted your friends to the truth of Venti supremacy they probably would have gotten sick of your antics by now. Instead they’re almost as invested as you are.

When he finally releases a new album you are thrilled. It’s been almost a year since he released his last one and you’ve been starving for new content. You are first in line to the store to buy the album and listen to it as soon as possible. Track one through four are fantastic and you enjoy them a lot! But then track five starts to play.

It’s more melancholy and nostalgic than other songs he has written. And then you hear the words. The words touch your heart, soothing and healing some of the pain that has remained. At the end he takes a moment to dedicate it to his childhood friend, to you. Not by name, but you know what he means by “my old childhood friend”. You’re tearing up.

I’m sorry I was too blind to see

That you were suffering as much as me

You were left behind, I was moving on

And you were left to carry on

It wasn’t right, it wasn’t fair

That I chose to just leave you there

We’re not really close now, are we

But I just want to say I’m sorry

You listened to it over and over again, crying in your room. Maybe it was stupid but that was something you didn’t even know you’ve been wanting to hear for years. Knowing that he felt bad about leaving you behind and hearing an apology from him meant the world to you.

And it just so happens that the song he dedicated to you is your friends’ new favorite song. If they didn’t know about your history with him before, then they sure know now. You’re still struggling to not cry every time it plays. Sure, maybe some of your dirty laundry was now being aired all around the world. But that wasn’t important.

What was important was that your heart was finally able to heal. You were truly able to feel happy again, for the first time since you were eight years old. Life had color again. There was more of a bounce to your step. Your friends noticed that your smiles even seemed more real now.

So when you learned that Venti would be doing an album signing event, you just knew you had to go. And you knew just which album you wanted to have signed. Now all you could think about was getting the album signed. How would he react to seeing you again? Would he recognize you? You really hope he does. It would really hurt if he doesn’t.

All of a sudden you’re now worrying if this is a good idea at all. Your friends managed to convince you to go, but you were really close to not going at all. And even now that you’re here at the signing you’re half considering running away. But instead you steel your courage and get in line.

You try not to think about it as the line slowly creeps forward. Making small talk with those around you in line might help, but you’re too nervous to even try social interaction. You’re twentieth in line, then tenth, then fifth, then second. Now it’s your turn and you approach the table he’s sitting at to sign the albums.

He’s wearing a white button up shirt, green slacks, and a green beanie with a flower on it. He’s dyed the tips of his braids teal and wears some light makeup to bring out the color of his eyes. You suddenly feel very underdressed as you anxiously walk up and hand him the album.

“Hi Venti,” you say softly. “It’s good to see you again.” He looks up sharply and freezes for a second, wide eyed. “Oh my gosh!” He exclaims, jumping up out of his seat. “It’s so good to see you again! It’s been so long!” You smile, feeling more comfortable and sure of yourself now that you know he recognizes you.

Someone behind him clears their throat and sits back down. “I can’t really talk right now,” he admits, sheepishly. “We don’t want to hold up the line, but hold on a sec.” He opens the album and scribbles something on the inside of the opaque cover. “That’s my number,” he whispers quietly to you. “Text me later, okay? I’ll get back to you when I can.”

You nod and move on, only realizing he didn’t actually sign the case until you were down the hall from where he was signing. Laughing a little, you sit down on a bench and pull out your phone. That was such a Venti-like thing for him to do. Sometimes he would get so excited that he’d forget what he was supposed to be doing.

Opening your texting app, you typed in his number and sent him a message.

You: Hi! Is this the right number? I’m the one you wrote song number five about.

It took a couple hours for him to reply. Which is very understandable considering how he was probably signing albums for a while.

Venti: Yes! This is the right number! It’s so good to hear from you again :)

Venti: And I’m so glad you heard that song

Venti: I really am sorry about leaving like that

You: I won’t lie and say that it’s fine, because it really hurt that you left like that

You: But I really appreciate your song that you wrote for me. I cry every time I hear it

Venti: Oh no! I didn’t mean to make you sad :(

You: Happy tears, Venti. They’re all happy tears

Venti: Oh, okay, that’s good :)

Venti: Want to come eat lunch with the staff and me?

Venti: They’re all really curious about you

Venti: The mysterious childhood friend I wrote a whole song about

You: Sure! How do I find you?

Venti: You don’t! Where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up ;)

You send him your location and wait around for someone to come pick you up. After a while a nicely dressed woman approaches you and gestures for you to follow her. She leads you to a car and drives you to a restaurant. A waiter takes you to one of the closed off rooms for group events.

Approximately two seconds after the door is closed, you are hug tackled to the floor. Venti cheerfully cheers your name right into your ear. You grumble good naturedly and swat at him until he laughs and gets off you. He offers his hand, you take it, and he helps you stand up. Some chuckles from the staff tell me they’re just as amused as he is by the situation.

This sets the tone for your lunch. It’s lighthearted and you have a great time getting to know each other again. He introduces the staff and they admit they’ve been curious about his childhood friend he wrote a song about. You enjoy eating lunch with them a lot, and all of you are disappointed when you have to go.

You continue to chat as long as you can while preparing to leave. As you’re gathering your stuff to go, you come across the album that he never actually signed. “Oh yeah,” you laugh. “Venti, you never actually signed my album!”

“Whoops! I’ll sign that right now.” He declares. “Though I must admit that I feel a little awkward signing stuff for you.” Finishing writing with a flourish, he hands the album back to you. “But I guess I better get used to it,” he continues. “You better bring the rest of the albums next time!”

Your smile is so bright that he has to squint for a moment.. “I’m looking forward to it already.” You say. “See you later?” He beams right back. “Yep! I’ll let you know the next time we can meet up!”

The grin stays on your face all the way home.

You meet up whenever you can after that, though your schedules don’t always match up enough to allow it. Video calls are common when he goes on tour. It’s like the two of you never split. And eventually your friendship becomes something more.

“Hey, could I ask you a question?” Venti asks you over a video call one night. He’s acting a little funny, nervous with a dash of hope and excitement. “Would you like to go out with me sometimes? Like a date?” You chuckle, amused. “Venti, you’re on tour right now. It’s not like we could go out to dinner or something.”

“You’re right that we can’t go out to dinner together, but we could eat at the same time over a video call! I’ll even call and order food for you or something!” Venti plans. “Sure,” you agree. “I think I’d like that.” He pumps his fist in the air. “Yes!” He shouts. “I’m gonna make this the best long-distance date ever!”

And so he does.

2, 9, 13, 20 for the specific ship asks for Jackson x Monty & Batticus? 🥺❤️

2) The song that plays when they realize they like each other

Jackmon ~ *SNOOOOORT* Helpless from Hamilton. Eliza's part is Jacko to a friggin' tee when it comes to his crush on Monty, and I crack up now whenever I hear that opening "Oooooh~! I do, I do, I doooo~!", imagining my poor lovestruck showman swooning over his precious Montelimar. (And honestly, even on Monty's end, I think when he first realized he was crushing on Jackson, he had quite a bit of that whole "then you walked in and my heart went BOOM" feeling too, LOL.)

Batticus ~ Looking Through Your Eyes from Quest for Camelot! I think in their original lifetimes, it kind of took both Bat and Grim by surprise when they realized just how much the other had come to mean to them, over time. And I'm sorry, the line "here in the night, I see the sun / here in the dark, our two hearts are one"?? Just?? Bat's a vampire, so he and Grim just about only meet at night, so that's when they get to spend time together and just -- I'm sorry, there's something in my eye 😭

9) Character A is fighting in battle side by side with Character B. Why are they in battle? What’s the song that plays while they kick ass together?

Jackmon ~ Oh My Love by the Score. I know this band is both one of our favorites, but yeah, I just think so many of the lyrics suit these two, talking of changing the world together and not playing by any rules "but you." I could see them kicking arse together when Grindelwald’s supporters try to crash some Ministry function Jackson’s involved with and Monty just happens to be there, with Jackson being all flashy and throwing out bad-ass one-liners and Monty actually being the more competent duelist who actually takes most of these guys out. 😂

Batticus ~ Maybe it's just because of the Reincarnation AU where I totally see Reincarnated!Bat and Grim fighting side by side in the Second Wizarding War together, but I love the idea of them both kicking Death Eater tail to Moondance by Nightwish. Moondance is one of my character themes for Bat, and it just has both the action and the reflection in the middle of it. These two are both warriors, but they are scholars as well, so they don't battle or kill blindly -- they never turn their brains off and they understand the gravity of the choices they have to make, in order to protect what they love...especially since by the time they're adults in the modern era, they've both already lived and died before.

13) Character A is dying in Character B’s arms. How did this happen? What song plays, causing the audience to sob profusely?

Jackmon ~ Monty is dying of old age (well-deservedly), but Jackson has a lot of trouble envisioning a life on his own without his precious Montelimar. Jacko is holding Monty in his arms all the way until the end and, upon realizing Monty has passed on, the song that comes on is If Tears Could Bring You Back to Me by Midnight Sons. 💔

Batticus ~ *throws herself off cliff sobbing* EHHHHHH -- you already know what the set-up WOULD be for this! 😭 Accompaniment would be Remember by Josh Groban.

20) Character A is secretly an incredible musician. What song are they playing when Character B strolls in and hides so they can listen, inevitably falling for Character A?

Jackmon ~ In this scenario, Jackson would swoon over Monty after hearing him practice a solo on the violin for an upcoming event that Jackson’s organizing (probably with his BFF Adelia @thatravenpuffwitch, because let’s be honest, Jacko isn’t the “organized” type). Maybe the solo is something like this cover of A Million Dreams by Taylor Davis? 💙

Batticus ~ LOL, I actually DO see a scene in the Reincarnation AU at some point where Bat hears Grim play the piano at school and actually gets really choked up and has to leave the room quickly to hide his tears because it reminds him of when he used to love listening to Grim play in their first lives! I could see Grim playing something that’s technically complicated but also very emotional, like this piano cover of Yuri on Ice performed by Tehishter. Ironically though, I also envision a similar situation the other way around where Grim hears Bat sing for the first time in their second lives, remembering subconsciously how soothing he found Bat’s voice when he had trouble sleeping in the past -- in that case, Bat’s mother went behind his back and invited all three of his friends to Christmas dinner without telling him, which required them to stop by Christmas Eve church service where Bat was performing a song commission for the minister to make some extra money...so Grim reacted strongly hearing Bat sing O Holy Night for the congregation.

Song Ask!

#song ask #jackson knightly #montelimar bloom #bartholomew varney #atticus grimsley #I might have to answer the rest of these in a few hours #I *gotta* get some sleep tonight...#*collapses*#😴

I would love it if you did a post on Brook and why he is awesome

Okay, so first things, like Robin, my love for Brook is in no way objective. I love music, and as a kid I took lessons for violin, piano, viola, and cello. I know how to sing an alto line and will listen to just about anything once, just to know what it sounds like. There are few things that give me more joy than learning about new artists or interments. I’m going to get into this more once we hit the Skypiea arc, but One Piece has a surprising musicality for a medium that doesn’t convey sound. Yes, the anime exists, but Oda has gone out of his way to make music an important part of a story that’s originally nothing but paper and ink, and I think that’s something that’s worth talking about.

More than that, I’ve been a nurse for almost ten years now, and I’ve worked that entire time in long term care. My entire career is based around taking care of old people, and in some ways Brook reminds me of some of the residents I’ve had, many of whom have passed on.

Most shonen series are focused on characters who are kids. It makes sense—they’re the same age as the target audience, and therefore easy to relate to. Heck, the first six crew members are teenagers when they’re introduced, and I’m sure that was intentional on Oda’s part.

But since then, each new Straw Hat Pirate has been an adult, with adult circumstances and problems. Brook, in particular, deals with trauma that is almost always unique to his stage of life.

There is a specific type of grief that comes with aging that’s hard to describe unless you deal with it every day. It’s quieter, less noticeable to the point other people tend to forget about it unless you bring it up. Which in turn tends to exacerbate everyone around you, because why should you still be sad that your siblings died 15 years ago, or your last surviving friend just got diagnosed with cancer, or you’re not able to do the things you once enjoyed because of your arthritis? You’re old. That’s what happens to old people.

(As an aside, I think we as a culture could stand to be nicer to the elderly, but that’s a topic for another day.)

Brook is an old man. He has literally died and come back to life and has outlived everyone he knew from Before. The tragedy of his story isn’t a punch in the gut like it is for a lot of One Piece flashbacks, but the slowly dawning horror when you realize that he was alone for fifty years.

Fifty. Years.

I wrote on my main once about how Brook’s backstory and induction into the crew is written differently than the other Straw Hats (https://creative-type.tumblr.com/post/166349846101/tragedy-without-melodrama). His flashback comes at the very end of Thriller Bark, after the climax of the story. Imagine getting Robin’s backstory after “I wanna live” or Nami’s after the walk to Arlong Park. It just doesn’t work.

That’s because Brook’s flashback is about closure. The audience already knows his connection to Laboon. We already know how he came to be a skeleton. We already know why his ‘fro is so important to him. We know all there is to know, so Oda lets the Rumbar Pirates have their swan song with grace and dignity, allowing Brook to move seamlessly into his second chance at life.

There are three Straw Hats that deal with the theme of loneliness in some way: Chopper, Robin, and Brook. Chopper was rejected, Robin persecuted, and Brook was physically isolated. There’s no doubting that sailing alone on a broken ship with nothing but the bones of his dead friends for company took its toll (I for one don’t think Brook’s completely sane) but despite struggling with his burden of loneliness the longest, Brook doesn’t have the angst Robin and Chopper suffered through during their main arcs. He has somehow remained unflinchingly, relentlessly positive and optimistic, despite having every reason not to be. He says it best during his introduction—He’s just glad to be alive.

And again, maybe it’s because I deal with the elderly almost every day, but that means something to me. Getting old isn’t for the faint of heart, and while Brook doesn’t have the same ailments that tend to plague most older people, he’s never going to be mistaken as a regular person. He’s a living, breathing (without lungs!) skeleton. He clings to the only bit of him that remains unchanged from his first life because he’s terrified of what might happen if he relinquishes that last bit of normalcy, but he doesn’t obsess about what he’s lost. Instead he tries new things, makes new friends, goes out on a new adventure. Brook isn’t content to just be alive, he wants to truly live.

It’s this mindset that helps us understand his role in the crew. There is nothing about Brook that is necessary. He’s a swordsmen whose skills pale to Zoro’s. The Straw Hats made it 400 chapters without him, and they could have gone 400 more if they had to. His dream in no way affects the main plot. But the Straw Hat Pirates without Brook is like life without music. Sure, you can get by, but he makes the good times better and the difficult times a little bit easier to bear, both with his music and by simple virtue of who he is as a person.

I want to be Brook when I’m 90 years old. Heck, I’d consider it a win if I could be half as positive as he is. I’m so thankful Oda decided to include him in his story, because I think kids need to be exposed to characters who aren’t aren’t their age.

There’s so much more I could cover here, but this is getting pretty long so I’ll end by saying I think Brook’s powers are cool as hell and I laugh at his stupid puns more often than I should. To see his progression from Thriller Bark to the confidence he displayed during Whole Cake Island was a delight, and I hope he gets more time to shine in Wano. I mean what good is getting old if you don’t use your privilege to sass Emperors?

And, no, his panty jokes to bother me. Like I said, my love for Brook is irrational, and I think he’s hilarious. I bet he’s got a collection of them hidden away somewhere from fan girls, and you know what? Good for him.

#one piece #opbackgrounds #brook #long post #the only thing that would make Brook better is if Oda gave him a photoplayer #this is the hill I have chosen to die on #Please Oda I am begging you #sarc talks

Lose my breath // Blackdale

Hey! I know I have a few requests in my inbox for other ships and characters, but I felt like writing Blackdale once again this week. This is a *sorta* Halloween-themed fanfic.

Couple/Characters: Blackdale, Jesse Blackthorn and Lucie Herondale Rating: T

Halloween. Yet another mundane holiday that shadowhunters celebrated. It was Matthew who had insisted, saying that he read on a newspaper that it was fun to throw parties and dress as witches, zombies, or vampires. Or ghosts. Lucie wasn’t against the idea of celebrating it, but the truth was that this day reminded her too much of someone. And now, as she sipped orange juice by the fire of the ballroom of the Institute, she regretted coming. Everyone seemed to be having fun, at least. Some were dancing, others were drinking light stuff. There weren’t just the youngest shadowhunters, but also their parents, which were treating the event as a simple break from every day activities and had no clue what they were celebrating.

Lucie was bored. She believed this event would have provided her with new inspiration for her story, but she had been wrong. She saw Cordelia dancing with James, and she kind of envied the couple. Even if their engagement was just a sham and James turned into a shadow sometimes, he was alive. Cordelia could still hold his hand or touch his hair.

Lucie put the empty glass on a table nearby. She was fed up with the party, and she needed a break. She didn’t want to go to her room. It would mean that she was completely done with the celebration, and she intended to go back in after a few minutes. She needed somewhere else. She thought about the drawing room, but it was on a different floor. Right, the music room, she decided in the end.

No one really went to that room besides her father. Lucie couldn’t play any instrument, but she had to admit that this place was perfect to brainstorm new ideas and to hide from people. Not that she wanted to hide from anybody, in her own house, but…

Her eyes caught the violin case sitting on a table on a velvet cloth. It would be nice if she knew how to play something, but maybe not the violin. No, it seemed too hard, and she didn’t have the time. Plus, her neck was already tight because of the hours spent on her writing machine. She glanced at the grand piano, and walked towards it. Her brother James had learnt how to play it, even though he didn’t touch it anymore. Perhaps he could teach her.

Despite not being used, the piano wasn’t dusty. Lucie touched the black polished wood, then her fingers pressed two keys. She laughed, because she knew she couldn’t play anything, but decided to sit down on the soft bench in front of the piano anyway. She cleared her voice and then started intoning a typical Welsh song. It was the first song that came to her mind when she started pressing her fingers on the keys.

Lucie knew how to sing, at least. Or that was what her father often said when they sang Welsh songs together. But who cared, anyway? She was alone, completely and utterly alone. She stopped touching the piano at some point, but kept singing until the song was over. And then someone clapped.

She gasped, and turned towards the door to see who was the intruder. “Jesse?”

He smiled. “Good evening, Lucie.”

He walked towards the piano, but he didn’t get too close. Lucie craved for his presence while in the ballroom, and she didn’t mind he was keeping his distance. She already appreciated his presence. But she hoped he would cut the distance and she would be able to stare in his green eyes directly. She gazed up at him.

“There is something wrong with you, tonight,” she declared, frowning. She tilted her head and observed him from head to toe. She hoped she didn’t look weird, but she thought she wasn’t doing anything wrong.

Jesse shrugged, as if he didn’t know what to say or was bored. “That’s a nice way to greet me,” he snorted.

“I don’t think I’ve offended you,” her nose crinkled, and she rolled her eyes. “I didn’t think you were the touchy type.”

“I didn’t think you as the performer type either,” he countered, advancing until he was a few feet from her.

“You don’t know many things about me. I’m a great singer, and I’ve received a lot of compliments when I once sang in front of a crowd.”

“Your parents and your brother?” he retorted, crossing his arms on his chest.

Her mouth set in a hard line. He didn’t offend her, because it was the truth. “If it’s more than one person it’s a crowd,” she replied with bitterness.

“You weren’t tone-deaf, at least.”

“Is that a compliment?”

“Your voice was silvery, Lucie.”

Lucie tried to keep her face neutral, but she wanted to smile. “See, it doesn’t cost much to be nice,” she said, pressing her lips together.

She heard Jesse’s footsteps, and he sat down next to her on the bench before she could object. He hadn’t asked if he could do it, but she didn’t mind. They were alone, and she also believed they were comfortable around each other. Why was she thinking about all of this now? Jesse was sitting by her side! She stared at him. He was staring at the piano before them.

“You may have a nice voice,” he began, turning his head to focus on her, “but you don’t know how to play.”

There it was again. The snark. “Can you refrain from commenting on my skills for five minutes?”

“It’s not about your skills. It’s facts.”

She sighed and scowled at him. “I may not know how to play an instrument, but the question is: do you?”

“Of course, I do,” he replied with a smirk. “I may not have lived much time, but I definitely know how to play.”

Lucie rolled her eyes. “I’m glad for you,” her lips drew back in a snarl, and she looked away.

“Want me to teach you a simple song?”

“What?” she didn’t mean to be loud, but her voice rose an octave when she uttered the question. She covered her mouth quickly, and glanced at him. He was grinning. “Okay,” she agreed.

He seemed satisfied of her answer. “Put your hands on these keys,” he pointed at them, and Lucie obeyed. “Now press this and then this for five times.”

She didn’t know if she would do it right, but she tried. He explained her which keys she should press, and how much, for how many times. After a few minutes of practice, she could finally hear some progress. It wasn’t perfect, but it was there. There was just a point where she always mistook the keys. “I never get this right,” she lamented with a pout.

“Want to do it with me?” he asked her, and she nodded, believing that they would do it on their own side of the keyboard. So, when Jesse put his hands on hers, she shivered. Her heart started racing as he adjusted his bigger hands on her dainty ones. Strangely, they were warm. They tried the melody once, twice, and she kept on making the same mistake. She didn’t know if he knew that she was on edge because he was almost holding her hands. He had been nothing but patient with her, and had tried to give her good advice on how to avoid the mistakes she was making.

The third time they tried, something went wrong. As they moved their hands on the keys, someone decided it was time to come and watch the performance.

“By the angel!” Lucie screamed, and grabbed Jesse’s arm as a small spider came out of one of the keys.

Once it went away, she glanced at her hand clutched on his white shirt. He was staring at her, with an unreadable expression on his face. She didn’t know what expression she was displaying, but she thought she must seem scared.

“Lucie,” he murmured.

“Yes?”

“Can I kiss you?”

She instantly sobered up. She knew the answer to that question, yet she waited a few seconds before nodding her head and accepting his request.

Jesse placed his hand behind her neck and guided her face towards his, until their lips met. Lucie didn’t know what to do, since she had never been kissed, and she let him guide her through it all, until she understood what to do. He wasn’t imposing. On the other hand, he was gentle, and he was giving her time to adjust. Lucie thought his lips were soft, and she would have kept on tasting them if she hadn’t been out of air.

She panted for a moment, and sighed. He was panting as well – but wasn’t he dead?!

Her head shot up and she started at him, obviously astonished. Her eyes went wide as saucers, and she stilled. She had just kissed Jesse. How? Although the light in the music room wasn’t splendid, she realized what was different about him tonight. His sleeves weren’t rolled up at the elbow.

Impossible.

“Jesse, but, you –“

“I thought you’d never notice, Lucie.”

“How? How are you… how can I touch you? I thought that you…”

“I have no idea. And I don’t know how long it will last,” he said, as the clock on the wall struck midnight.

Lucie jumped at the sudden sound, and glared at the grandfather clock for having interrupted their moment. Once he turned to Jesse, her jaw dropped. “Jesse, you –“ she pointed at him, or what was left of him.

He looked at himself then. His face didn’t change, but Lucie saw his lip quiver before he schooled his expression back to his melancholic self. “Guess we have our answer.”

“I’m sorry, Jesse,” Lucie replied, and she was truly touched.

He stood up from the bench, or better, he went through it. Lucie stood as well. “I reckon it is time for me to leave.”

“You can stay if you want,” she offered, but she could see the defeat in his eyes. He wanted to go.

He managed a smile. “You have to go back to your celebration.”

“I don’t have to go back to anything.”

“Well, I had a long day. Goodnight, Lucie,” Jesse said, and she didn’t understand what he meant with that. She was about to ask him, but he had already disappeared into thin air, leaving her alone with herself once again.

She had taken a long break from the party, but she didn’t wish to go back to the ballroom. So, she went back to the bench and practiced the song he taught her until she got it right.

She hoped he had listened.

hello! hello ! hope you had a great day grace c': can I ask #4,#8, #18, and #20 ??

hi hi hi :D i hope you had a great too, you’re so sweet!!

4. name a book, movie, or tv character that reminds you of yourself

i have a few, though the first two are from video games.

jean from genshin reminds me of myself!! i’m often the one that has to take the lead (though it’s usually unwillingly), and keep order. i’m definitely the type to sugarcoat things instead of conflict, and i actually do make a mad pizza!

besides that, i would say byleth of fe3h reminds me of myself. i take on the strategist role, and i have a lot to say but i usually fail to find words to express them clearly.

finally! if we’re talking about book characters, i’d say reyna from the pjoverse reminds me of myself, for the same reasons as jean.

8. current favorite book?

been rereading the percy jackson series again! the fourth grade nostalgia is hitting me like a truck, especially as it becomes summer once more.

18. what’s something you have to do in order to start your day?

i like to noodle around on my piano while i wait for the bus to come by. i’ve been messing around and trying to learn venti’s theme, though i’ve been more successful on the violin than i have with my piano tbh ^^;.

20. how are you really?

really, really good! it may be the nice weather, but i’ve been so happy these last few days.

I know that all they did was flip the lens of the camera but my brain is breaking at this flipped Winden

Who the fuck is this random dude Martha is with

You know what he kind of looks like Jonas. I wonder if that's relevant or if I'm just grasping at straws

Bartosz looks like he's going to his first grade violin recital

I straight up just did not recognize Charlotte with makeup. She looks hot

There's got to be another person in that picture other than Ulrich because that's a lot of space to rip out for one person

okay hold up Woller looks so good and then when I saw that he was missing an arm I almost lost my fucking mind

Oh shit okay Hannah is living in Katharina's house.

Oh my God are Ulrich and Charlotte having an affair

Is it normal in Germany for kids to just walk into classes that aren't there’s and just sit down

follow up he has a clear noose mark on his neck

Aleksander looks so hot with this beard. universe B is the fucking glow up universe

It's weirding me out that the whole school is black and gray instead of light brown

The look of satisfaction on katharina's face

Wow honestly Louis just broke my heart with his facial expression when he realized his mom didn't know who he was

he looks so scared

Yes yes do it afffffffffair

Oh no you done got found out!!!

Oh the theme of the play here is red and set of gold

Fransizka looks so cute in this little outfit

Oh my God she's deaf!!!!

What the fuck. the fact that this actress can talk is blowing my mind

RIP to Regina a real queen

Peter is such a good boy

lurking is the freaking national past time of this place

Oh shit we got some spin-off timeline stuff good

I love Katharina so fucking much

I know what she's thinking and it's the same thing I'm thinking which is can I kill a child

why does this picture of Tronte make him look like Jimmy Smits

Katharina looks amazing in this jacket

Also I definitely did not just start yelling GO GET YOUR MAN KATHARINA

Regina just gets more and more badass as time goes on. Also all of the women of the tiedemann family are so fucking badass

I am so excited to watch this fucking relationship develop. they're both too cute

awwww he's using signs!

oh they're writing back and forth

DAMNIT PETER

I always feel like little Noah should do fuckboy sign offs when he leaves rooms because he's so smooth

yesterday Laurel said that this was back to the future but serious and just now Bartosz said it's not super easy to get nuclear fuel in 1888 and now I think that Laurel's right

I will never get over how good he looks JONAAAASSSSSSS

This guy feels like the OG inventor of sic mundus right

Katerina why are you even trying to check in at the front desk bitch Go and get your man

Is this Katarina's mom why does she just recognize that woman's name

everyone on the show is so talented.I spend the whole damn time being like oh my god the performances on the show and it's like yeah we know

Katerina get your man

I literally love them so much look at the look on her face She is a mama bear She is not going to let anybody take her man or her children and I love her

Not a huge fan of people who quote Shakespeare right before they kill other people or am I an enormous fan of people who use Shakespeare right before they kill other people

using a garotte to kill someone is ugly as fuck

I feel so bad for Jana

see this is one of the reasons why I'm like why would you bring Regina back to this world.

wowwwww TRONTE what's up dude

YO WHAT

Oh so how did Charlotte get back there but Elizabeth's still there too. didn't they switch places?

alternate universe Ulrich is a better person than standard Ulrich

what's this new like zoom-y thing they're doing

I was attracted to Magnus at this jump of the show but he looks better with dark hair

How did they not all die of fucking flu

I love the parallels and characters behaviors between universe a and universe b

I want to know how Noah factored into all of this on this side

Martha has a type and her type is iconically Aryan

Oh Aleksander's back with that beard he's back

Omg that's her!!!!! I thought she was a trans actress.. hm. not super happy bout that :/

What is Helge talking about Ulrich did what??? omg

I would be like SIR DO WE NEED TO FIGHT STOP FOLLOWING ME

I stopped taking notes for the last half of that episode cuz I was really sucked in haha

EPISODE 4

FIRST OF ALL I'D LIKE TO GO ON RECORD THAT I DON'T CARE FOR THESE GENTLEMEN AT ALL

second of all why is this guy being like oh I took your name

why does he have Agnes's bracelet I don't like that

I don't like anything about this guy That's the end of the story

Also hold up a red hot second is Agnes dead cuz if so that's a hate crime

see what did I say

I knew that Hannah was going to get involved with Egon

from the second she walked in that office I was like that bitch has her eye on him and as she should he's handsome as fuck

Also he spoils her so much more than any other man she's ever been with AKA is Egon the only man she ever deserved

Is Hannah going to develop a heart cuz I'm not sure how I feel about that

Also what happens if Hannah gets pregnant

why is Ines a bitch I thought she was mad cool the beginning and now I feel fucking deceived

Also it's such a sweet gig that The kids who are playing kids can now play teenagers

poor Doris. Also he was shitty to her but he was far nicer than I would have been

Doris is so beautiful it's bullshit

older Magnus is so handsome

All I wanted was middle-aged Martha

bitch you have been having unprotected sex with him why do you think that pregnancy was not on the tabl

I'm like who's this guy in the church if it's not Noah I bet it's that little bitch

yeah I fucking knew it

Is this the dude that was married to Agnes I feel like this guy isn't real or something

I'm not surprised he let her go but I don't know why I'm not surprised. I feel like she's important to his timeline and I'm not sure why

look at these relationships forming between these sweet little bab

Hannah looks good in this red. Hannah looks good in all of these styles.

who is this child

I like that already as a child Bernd had his eye on Claudia as someone who was smart and had a ton of potential

I keep forgetting that I'm taking notes because I get so invested in episodes

Also I realize the zoomi thing which is going back and forth between the universes

Is Agnes Silja’s mom And if so with whom

he gave her Agnes’ bracelet that dope All right Tronte

Wow Claudia needs to back off her man

Claudia force him into a relationship with her

I fucking hate Hannah but sometimes she speaks so much sense

ooh I don't need anyone Yes girl that's true You don't need anyone You needing people was what made you act fucking crazy You don't need anybody

This was always my big problem with Hannah was that I initially identified with her because she was such a survivor but then she did such horrible reprehensible things I just couldn't let it go and I absolutely couldn't identify with her anymore

Oh here's my daddy Noah looking so good

I mean okay so I have been in this position before where I was cheating and then my man cheated on me and I was like how dare you but also you cannot be mad if your partner cheats on you when you cheated too. You both fucked up

Is Hannah going to have a redemption arc cuz that's a lot

Oh my God she's not going to get rid of this child is she

Oh my great God I cannot believe that she gave Helene that necklace.

I knew she was fucking connected to Katharina in the older generation I knew it

Louis and Lisa are a super cute couple and I know that they're not dating in real life but I think that they're very cute together

Oh everybody fucking

yeah they created the Apocalypse yeah

Oh no they have a child outside of worlds that's a mess How does that work so they had they gave birth to that ugly fuck

honestly I hate that he's their child for the most part just because he's ugly as fuck and neither of them are ugly as fuck so it makes me mad.

Artist Spotlights!

🎤 Keldan 🥁 KentuckyTheFried 🎷 Kisse

🎺 lemonbaristas 🎸 LicoriceRoll 🎻 Linkyu

Interview below the cut!

Introduce yourself

🎤 I'm a hobbyist artist. Wander around the Fire Emblem fanbase mostly. Social media: https://twitter.com/KeldanCon 🥁 Hi there! I’m a 19 year old hobby artist with a passion for designing OCs and fantasy/sci-fi characters. I’ve been drawing seriously for the past three years, but only got into digital art in September 2018. I’m active on Twitter (@KentuckyTheFry) 🎷 I’m a commission artist with a media background. I enjoy drawing cats, plants and lgbt+ topics. You can find my art on my website at juliusjoki.com, on instagram at @kissegram or on twitter at @kissecatte. 🎸 Hey there! Im an art student, I draw on both digital and traditionnal, mainly fandom stuff~ You can find me on twitter and insta @Licoriceroll , and tumblr @lico-arts :) 🎻 Hi, I’m Linkyu; I am here as a digital artist, but I’m also an independent game developer at Duality Workshop. My favourite genre is Sci-Fi, closely followed by Fantasy. I like to write dark themed stories, but most of the time I’ll make sure to make them hopeful. I don’t like sad endings. I'm currently most active on twitter, where you can find most of my recent art here: https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3ALinkyuTL%20%F0%9F%8E%A8&src=typed_query&f=live

Do you do commissions post? Where can we find the info?

🥁 My comms are always open and available right here: https://twitter.com/kentuckythefry/status/1171914175028875270 🎷 http://teaspionage.com/blog/work-and-commissions/ 🎸 https://twitter.com/LicoriceRoll/status/1151212909067931649 🎻 I do, actually; it's the pinned post of my twitter: https://twitter.com/LinkyuTL/status/1197969362096992257

Do you listen to music (or tv shows/films/anything else) when drawing?

🎤 Between music and contingency podcasts. 🥁 All the time! I actually find it hard to draw WITHOUT something in the background. I usually listen to music, but if I’m in a particularly good headspace and have a ton of work to do, I’ll listen to episodes of Critical Role ~ 🎷 I listen to music almost all the time and spotify is my best friend. I also watch a lot of documentaries while I draw. 🎸 I never do anything without music playing, silence gets too lonely ._. 🎻 Yes, although I tend to avoid lyrical songs because otherwise I end up distracting myself singing along and… not … drawing,,,

What’s your favorite music artist/band? If you could ask your favorite band/music artist one question, what would it be?

🎤 Nightwish. Are you ever gonna make a recorded concert with a full orchestra? 🥁 Right now my favorite artist is Aurora, and if I got the chance I would ask her for a hug - she strikes me as he type of person who would give good hugs xD 🎷 I don’t have a single favourite but I’ve been listening to a lot of Japanese rock music and city pop recently. Right now I’d like to know what art styles the members of BUCK-TICK find the most inspiring. 🎸 My favorite band is BBHF (ex Galileo Galilei) 🎻 Dave Grohl, by far. He is the musical embodiment of the philosophy that I adhere to.

Do you play an instrument? If not would you like to play one? Which one?

🎤 Guitar and keyboard. 🥁 I’ve been playing guitar for twelve years and violin for ten! If I got the chance I’d love to learn cello or harp. 🎷 I used to play the violin before I lost my instrument. I’m also interested in the bass guitar. 🎸 I never took actual classes but a friends taught me the basics of ukulele and piano. Outside of that I just sing a lot~ 🎻 I've played a fair amount of bass guitar, and some normal guitar too. I've started picking up the keyboard again for composition too, and I'd like to do some drums too in the future, actually.

Which song(s) are you going to draw?

🎤 Children of Bodom - All Twisted 🥁 I’m drawing Godhunter by Aviators! (It’s a BOP, highly recommend) 🎷 Morning Hangover by King Quartz 🎸 Im drawing Tsugi no Hi from BBHF 🎻 Definitely Hail to the King, from Avenged Sevenfold. Maybe more?

What do you expect from this zine?

🎤 Keep improving my art skills and find some interesting fellow artists to follow. 🥁 I’m challenging myself, in a sense! I always tell myself I’m gonna draw something based on one of my favorite songs but I never do, so this zine was a great opportunity to just sit down and say “yes! I’m drawing this!” ~ 🎷 I’m excited for creating original work and illustrating music as well as looking at how other people have interpreted songs that I know. 🎸 I think it's great to step ouf of my confort zone when it comes to illustrations: drawing for a song can be a lot more abstract than drawing for a specific character. Being more loose with the interpretation is pleasantly freeing ^^ 🎻 I'm mostly in it for more incentive to draw. I don't get commissioned very often, and I tend to neglect my art for other hobbies instead, so participating in zines forces me to keep the pen moving, you know what I mean? Besides, I get to see some nice art and the DotZine community has been great, so, it's also a nice ride.

Anything else you want to add?

🥁 Just some words of inspiration - whatever it is you’re doing, whatever you’re going through, don’t give up on your dreams! You’re stronger than you know 💕 🎻 Keep Rocking 🤘

MUN QUESTIONS.

Q1 : If you could write your character your way in their own movie, what would it be called, what style would it be filmed in, and what would it be about?

A1 : Reverent Ties. It would probably have a dramatic air of sudden drama, action, or empathy. The movie would be about the main basis of Haine’s origin and how she deals with resolving it.

Q2 : What would their soundtrack/score sound like?

A2 : A roll of piano keys that plays along side a music box during flashbacks of her childhood despite the darker themes. Violin scores during most of the present time themes.

Q3 : Why did you start writing this character?

A3 : There’s no easier way to put this- I wrote Haine to be a better version of myself 10+ years ago. Haine has existed in several universes, led so many lives, and has so many stories to tell. She is my pride and joy in the writing I love. In FFXIV, Haine has taken her own path that separates from me, and I’m happy about it. I had already grown to be strong like her.

Q4 : What first attracted you to this character?

A4 : Haine is my go to in every new thing I dive into. She’s my comfort pick that evolves and continues to remain the most complex thing I create. She never grows old for me, and I just love her. The only thing similar each time she is reborn? Her lavender hair.

Q5 : Describe the biggest thing you dislike about your muse.

A5 : Hrm.. I would have to say her fickle attitude towards people. It makes some match-ups hard. She can either be loving and welcoming if her heart is provoked, or she can be a viper. My child is just angry, it’s nothing personal.

Q6 : What do you have in common with your muse?

A6 : Haine and I share the ability to be empathetic. It can be the one way to feel, and the main way to understand. See past the lines and feel what the other feels. Be what you need to.

Q7 : How does your muse feel about you?

A7 : Haine probably feels proud, but annoyed with me. I think my muse is still the personification of strength in several ways. She would probably criticize me for the moments I falter, but encourage me more than anything to keep going.

Q8 : What characters does your muse have interesting interactions with ?

A8 : Haine has had quite a few interesting interactions. There are characters that bring out her best- and characters that bring out her worst. It’s fun to me to see how she is influenced as a true neutral character and how morally grey she can be.

Q9 : What gives you inspiration to write your muse ?

A9 : A lot of music ranging from piano, violin, or OSTs from movies. Deep characters with complex emotions.

Q10 : How long did this take you to complete ?

A10 : I started this probably... four days ago? I got sick, and this was sitting in my drafts. I’m still sick, but I figured I might as well kick this out the door.

MUN QUESTIONS.

Q1 : If you could write your character your way in their own movie, what would it be called, what style would it be filmed in, and what would it be about?

A1 : It would likely be an action/adventure with a lot of dark, sarcastic comedy. It would definitely be an origin story, starting somewhere around the end of his time in the Ossuary with intermittent flashbacks to his youth, up to close to current day. As for what it would be called? Probably something silly, like The Fire of Knowledge. Or Nald’thal’s Flame. Definitely something fire related.

Q2 : What would their soundtrack/score sound like?

A2 : There wouldn’t be any one genre that would be featured, instead having a pleasant blend of just about everything from emotional instrumentals, up to heavy metal that you can feel rattling your bones.

Q3 : Why did you start writing this character?

A3 : So, Rav’s not my first character in FFXIV. I ended up switching to him for personal reasons (nothing bad, promise!), and wrote him to be something new for me to work with. More laid back, more morally ambiguous (than an already morally ambiguous character, but that’s besides the point). As I’ve written him more and more I’ve come to enjoy him quite a lot. He’s more charismatic and manipulative than characters I’ve played before and I’m honestly having a blast.

Q4 : What first attracted you to this character?

A4 : Ravard was a new direction for me to explore in RP. I’ve been RPing for literally over half my life, but my characters were always the same general type. Ravard was something new and exciting to try.

Q5 : Describe the biggest thing you dislike about your muse.

A5 : I don’t really enjoy how much of an isolationist he really is. He’s outgoing enough that he can start and carry on a conversation. He’s capable of making friends, but to date he generally prefers to be alone with the exception of one or two people in his life that he goes out of his way to spend time with. Part of that could be the fact he generally thinks most people are idiots and a waste of time unless he can make money off them, but that’s a whole different can of worms to open.

Q6 : What do you have in common with your muse?

A6 : We both have had a hard time feeling like there’s any one place that could be considered ‘home’. There’s places that are good stop-offs but nothing that’s truly felt ‘right’. We both find solace in people, rather than places. We also both enjoy solitude and time to ourselves with our thoughts.

Q7 : How does your muse feel about you?

A7 : He honestly probably would see me as a potential mark to steal from at first. Once he got to know me, we’d probably get along decently well. We have a similar innate sense of humor and world view. He’s just.. a lot more vocal, and more willing to break the law.

Q8 : What characters does your muse have interesting interactions with ?

A8 : Anyone who can carry on a decent conversation in regards to magic, history or philosophy. Despite being primarily self taught, he is actually extremely well read and enjoys intelligence in the people he associates with. He’d also be interested in meeting business partners or simply people who need something done that may not be entirely above board.

Q9 : What gives you inspiration to write your muse ?

A9 : A lot of it comes from the music I listen to. I also genuinely enjoy telling the story of the morally questionable mage who found a way to turn luck and fate to his side. Even if he personally states he doesn’t believe in luck or fate. If I have someone interesting to RP with, too? Inspiration galore.

Q10 : How long did this take you to complete ?

A10 : Six days. Though I had everything but the mun questions done on day three.

Some of my favorite L365 themes

So like I don’t remember all the music for all the title I’ve read so PLEASE do not crucify if you don’t see your favorite on this life. i’ll try to update this as much as I can (which isn’t a lot so-) Btw, they are in random order b/c I cannot be bothered to use any additional brain power and i’m just so tired

- Dangerous Seduction: The music that plays when something really emotionally happy happens (as you can see, i have no actual title for the music that plays) holy fuck do i love the music to this. DS only has a few stories but in those few stories, i fell in love with this soundtrack. it starts off gentle but it is shortly followed by a big change in tune with the violins

My forged wedding theme 3

here’s the link to it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73xm5BUP1sE

MFW was my first ever otome game (i think) and after getting back into L365 2 years later, i decided to play Yamato again (2nd character after rejoining) and after hearing this theme again, i felt like someone sucked out the air in my lungs. it brought back so much memories and it makes me wanna tear up a bit (might be adding this song onto ways to help me cry and destress idk abt u but hmmm)

and then there’s also the theme 1 (?) which is the common main theme u hear at the Long Island cafe. the theme is just so nice

THEME 2 FOR MFW: Yea this is the theme u hear at home. it just rings CLARITY and probably something i could listen to if i were cleaning. la la la la dont mind me, just imagining im in some otome world while cleaning my floor (god i sound like cinderella)

FINALLY IN LOVE AGAIN THE SAPPY EMOTIONAL HAPPY MUSIC (ARE WE SURE IM REALLY NOT JUST MAKING A LIST OF THEMES TO CRY TO?)

LOWKEY FILA IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE TITLES BC IM A HOE FOR SLICE OF LIFE BUT THIS SONG JUST MAKES ME WANNA CRY HAPPY TEARS. YOU GET HAPPY CRYING TEARS, YOU GET HAPPY CRYING TEARS, EVERYONE GETS HAPPY CRYING TEARS. I’M LISTENING TO THIS THEME AS I’M TYPING THIS AND DROPLETS MIGHT BE FORMING IN MY EYES BUT WHATEVER. THIS THEME IS T H E S H I T.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2hgZT9fPNo MFW THEME 4

THE SAD THEME. THE THEME THAT MAKES ME WANNA SAD CRY. THE THEME THAT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE I BROKEN SOMEONE’S HEART (the only heart ive broken is my own by playing otome games) this theme makes me feel as if i’m breaking up with someone. whether it be on bad or good terms, the relationship we had was a memorable one. and even if you forget, i’ll never forget you (sorry i went off there, BLAME THE SONG)

Irresistible Mistakes piano song

oookay this song makes me so emotional sometimes. the piano music, the twinkling of the stars. it just makes me feel like im there and makes me too emotional sometimes and too bad i cant find a clip of the music on youtube b.c i would SO put it here

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJ9YUy1vsYg MY FIRST LAST KISS THEME SONG

YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

THE CASUAL GUITAR IN THE BEGINNING. THE BEAT THAT COMES ON. THE GUITAR STOLE THE SPOTLIGHT FOR THIS SONG HOLY SHIT. THIS SONG THROWS SO MUCH EMOTIONS AND IT MAKES ME WANNA HAPPY BAWL

Enchanted in the moonlight theme that sounds all happy and sweet

honestly this theme has been on my mind a lot, randomly. it just sounds really sweet like im being caressed by my lover. sitting out in the verdana while watching the silent moon

EITM theme that plays when theyre marking you

im a sucker (for you) for traditional songs SO YOU KNOW HOW HYPED I WAS ABOUT THE OP SONG LIKE HECKKKKKK

but the theme during this scene has a more traditional sound to it. it’s like each sound is emphasised

#love365 #otome game #voltage otome #voltage romance games #enchanted in the moonlight #dangerous seduction #finally in love again #my forged wedding #Irresistible mistakes #my first last kiss

Partialism [M]

✦ characters: vampire!jimin x reader ✦ summary: a form of fetishism in which the sexual stimulus is a part of the body; for instance, the neck. ✦ genre/words: blood kink, vampirism, body worship, pure smut | 4.2k

Winter nights were either the worst thing or the best. It was always hard to decide whether there was a love for the feeling of cold, crisp air against one’s cheek or a hatred for the burning sensation. Either way, the cold could always be survived by the warmth of a thick coat, scarf, hat and gloves; consistently thankful for their coverage.

The sound of your high heeled booties click-clacked against the concrete street as you walked towards your destination. Your legs burned as they were the only thing not covered by anything as you decided to wear a dress for tonight’s event. It has only been a month since you started dating this new man in your life and he has already invited you to a dinner party at his home. When he gave you the address, it seemed vaguely familiar.

Hating yourself for telling the taxi driver to stop three blocks back, you started cursing under your breath as a gust of wind hit you harshly. Fortunately, you decided to wear your hair in a top-bun tonight, so you didn’t have to worry about your hair flying all over the place - although the fly aways were another issue. As you turned one last corner, you saw the stream of cars leading up to an elegant brick mansion.

The house was so beautiful but the estate it rested on was perfectly manicured and groomed. Your jaw dropped at the sight.

He lives here, you asked yourself in thought. You could tell that he had a little money when you first met him. Often times he wore designer clothes; always well styled and groom. But this was a completely different animal. This home had been in your town for centuries. Only the finest of the finest lived here and yet here you were. There were so many horror stories associated with the home. Some of the stories were elegant and romantic, poetic even.

Shakily, your legs guided you up the long driveway and to the double doors that led to the warmth that you found yourself craving. It wasn’t the warmth that consumed you majorly but anxiety of what lied inside. When the doors opened, your eyes widened at the sight.

So many senses were being activated because of so many elements; low tempo, modern music, glasses clinking together, casual laughter, heels hitting the floor, subtle chatter, the smell of seduction and promise in the air. This place that you’ve never been to before has somehow morphed itself into a world that you could feel it doesn’t indulge in often. The walls were lined with contemporary paintings yet the decor was modern in dark woods and vintage couture. It was outdated in a way but upkept to match the posh styles of today.

The only thing that caught you off guard was the apparent theme of the party; a masquerade ball. Although every man was dressed in a tailored suit and every woman in some skin revealing, elaborate dress, each person had an elaborately decorated mask upon their eyes. You wondered why your boyfriend didn’t tell you about such an important detail. The mask you had, but the dress was not as intricate. Suddenly, catching you from your daze, a young man in a suit appeared in front of you.

“May I take your coat, ma’am?” The young man’s voice was polite and courteous. His hair was dark, his skin fair, and his smile was dazzling; unexpectedly very attractive. Not to say that a butler can’t be attractive but the man looked like a model; it was alluring. In a sheepish way, you removed your black trenchcoat and dark blue scarf to hand it to him. With a kind smile, you handed it over and bowed your head slightly.

“Thank you. How will I find it later,” you asked out of curiosity. Since it wasn’t a club or bar, it didn’t seem like there would be a coat check. The man smiled warmly and bowed back to you respectfully.

“Young Master will make sure you find your belongings if you leave this evening. Have a good night, ma’am.” Without being able to say another word, the man walked away with your purse and belongings. There you stood in your black a-line dress; a sweetheart neckline that sculpted your breasts perfectly and elongated your neck - flawless. Shock was apparent in your eyes.

“....if? Wha….” But before you could get out your question, the man had disappeared into the crowd with your belongings. You stood there completely dumbfounded, trying to shake off his comment. Maybe you misheard or he didn’t mean anything by it. All you knew was that you would feel a little better if you found him.

The moment you concentrated on finding your more-so mysterious boyfriend, the louder things seemed to become. The music seemed louder. The room seemed more crowded. In spite of this, the atmosphere became colder somehow. Goosebumps formed on your skin with each body you passed. Although covered in masks, the eyes around the room seemed to be focused on you as you walked by. It was hypnotizing in a way. The puzzling factor of the matter was that you were hidden by your own black and gold mask as well, so why were they looking at you?

What was the most captivating element was the music. The slow drum accompanied with a bass crescendo towards an orchestra of other instruments. A mix of guitar, cello, violin, piano, and other unknown instruments that should be chaotic but it was eerily hypnotic. Suddenly the music seemed to fade slightly without anyone else noticing. An itch tickled your neck but you assumed it was the velvety black choker you were wearing. Then, he appeared.

Styled blonde hair, dressed in a fitted black suit with gold embroidery laced on his jacket, chiseled cheeks and for a split moment, his eyes seemed to be shimmering. The only one here without a mask. He looked stunning. In comparison, you couldn’t help but to feel self-conscious about your attire. Perhaps it was a little underdressed, you thought. He never specified what you should wear; only that it was a formal occasion with a mask and emphasized that you’ll look beautiful in anything. As if he knew exactly what you were thinking, he flashed you a perfect smile. He advanced towards you stealthily, sending chills down your spine. When he reached you, he gently put his cold fingers on your arm and leaned in to whisper into your ear.

“You look breathtaking. Don’t be so nervous.” His voice was smooth as silk; deep and raspy. You could hear him clearly over the music. Biting your bottom lip, you exhaled with a shaky breath.

“Is it that obvious? You never told me it was this type of party. Not to mention that you live...here. It’s a little intimidating.” Your boyfriend lifted your mask from your eyes with ease, staring into your eyes as if you were the most beautiful sight in the world.

“Sweetheart, the only intimidating person here is you.” Lifting your chin delicately with his finger, he pressed his soft lips against yours. A kiss so tender, it instantly made you moan as your body flooded with warmth. Every fear you felt in this room disappeared in his embrace. He pulled only a breath away, finding yourself wanting to follow his lips. Something shifted in his eyes - a golden brown glimmer as opposed to his normal dark brown but perhaps it was the chandelier lights that caught his eyes.

“This choker of yours just might get you in trouble. All I can think about is going this -” Before you could ask, his lips skimmed across your jawline and down to your neck. Nuzzling painfully slow along the lining, smelling your soft natural scent. Remembering that he was sensitive to perfume, you didn’t wear any tonight. He told you on your first date that he loved the way you smell without it. You couldn’t explain why but the compliment made you blush more than anything else.

A soft gasp purred from your lips as you closed your eyes. An uncontrollable response as his tongue drew a line across the necklace. Your arms relaxed, draping down your sides. Feeling as if you were going to faint from the sensation but his arm wrapped around your back to hold you in place. It almost sounded as if he was growling as he tasted your skin.

“So sweet and so incredibly smooth. You’re pure perfection, Y/N,” he pulled himself back and smirked, “Dance with me. I want everyone to see you. See who you belong to.” Such a possessive tone yet playful, but there wasn’t anything that he could say that you wouldn’t agree to. The man pulled you to the center of the ballroom floor and without asking, the crowd slightly parted ways.

There you two were, in the center of everything. Dozens of eyes looming upon you without even doing so. They were engulfed in their own partners yet curious glances given your way in subtle ways. It was unnerving but once again, he sensed what you were thinking. He held you as close to his firm body as physically possible. His head pressed against the side of yours as you swayed side to side to the music.

“They’re not here. It’s just you and me.” His words were slow and echoed in your head. A familiar chill rushed over your body, making you close your eyes as his voice took over your thoughts. Once they were open, the others no longer mattered.

“Good girl,” he whispered. His praise gave you a different rush. All the blood in your body seemed to center to the warmest part of your body. Arousal built with intensity inside of you, dampening the little fabric you were wearing underneath your dress. His hand that held yours as you danced led you to drape it over his shoulder. His hand snaked up your curves to the nape of your neck, grabbing a hold of your jaw to angle your head to the side. His nose grazed your skin before his lips connected to the sensitive spot at the curve of your neck.

Your arms wrapped around his neck, beckoning him to continue. The strangest sensation came over you - the desperate need for him to bite you. Not the typical bite but something that would leave a mark. A bite that would show anyone who saw that you belonged to him and only him. Digging your nails into your arms, you let out a soft moan as he playfully nibbled your skin.

“Be careful what you wish for. You might get exactly what you want,” he whispered against your neck. His voice sounded more and more like a ghostly melody; intoxicating with every word. The question circled in your head how he always knew what you were thinking but the thought was always silenced by his next moves or words. Your mind and body submitting to him easier than you ever could before.

“I...want you to. I don’t know why but I need this,” you said with innocent desperation. His low chuckle vibrated into your neck. Instead of giving you want you wanted, he slowly kissed and sucked every spot that made your heart race. He could feel your adrenaline coursing through your veins as it pulsed against his lips. His nose twitched as his eyes began to sting. Dark veins forming from the base of his eyes to his prominent cheekbones. His senses heightened and all he could hear was the sound of your pulse and the sweet scent of what he craved the most.

“Do you trust me,” he asked in a sharper voice; filled with eagerness yet smooth to the core.

“Y-Yes,” you replied as best as your weakened voice would allow. The moment you gave your answer, he yanked away your choker and tossed it to the floor. His warm tongue ran up and down the side of your neck.

“Then beg. Beg for it. I need to hear it.” The command almost sounded as if he was begging as well. He may have been but you didn’t care. You needed this more than you needed anything else.

“Please Jimin. B-Bite me. Mark me as your own. I’m yours and no one else’s.” There was no denying the deep growl that bellowed in his chest. Without hesitation, Jimin’s surprisingly sharp teeth sunk into your neck. The contact pierced and burned at first but eased into a sensation unlike any other. He sucked the nectar your neck gave him; taking his time and savouring the taste. His tongue swirled around the two small holes as his mouth swallowed the red liquid.

Your body was on fire. Nipples pressing against your dressed as you ached to be touched. It felt as if you were numb yet feeling everything all at once. You felt weaker yet stronger. There wasn’t a single care in the world that there were other people in the room yet they paid no attention to you. Holding him tighter as your body begged for more. Reluctantly, he pulled away. Blood dripping from his lips, mirroring the drops remaining on your neck. The sight of his golden eyes didn’t scare you but intrigued you.

“Are you,” you asked in wonderment without being able to finish the question. Jimin licked his lips clean and grabbed your hand with a coy grin. His eyes returning to normal.

“Come with me,” he purred. All you could do was nod. As you passed through the crowd, you noticed that you two weren’t the only ones in a trance. Couples throughout the floor or seated, all tasting each other, drunk in each other. The sounds of moans and hissing as they performed the same act. In your mind, you thought you should be afraid but a bigger part of you was turned on by the scene.

It wasn’t long before you reached a large room; not knowing how you got there so quickly. In fact, you hadn’t even noticed that Jimin was lowering you so your feet would touch the ground as he carried you bridal style. Your head was spinning. The room was dark even as it was lit with candles. The air was cool, matching the blue and silvery gold accents throughout the room. Elegant furniture decorated the room but the center was the large bed that awaited you.

As if it was calling your name, you walked towards the tempting furniture. When you turned around, Jimin was right behind you. His jacket was removed, leaving him in his silky black shirt and pants. You cocked your head as you saw a small drop of your blood in the corner of his mouth. Lifting your finger, you grazed the liquid. Pulling the finger to your parted lips and sucked the foreign taste on your tongue. Jimin’s eyes widened at the sight.

In a quick swift motion, he lifted you to wrap your legs around his taut waist. Crashing his lips against yours as he led you to the bed. Your back fell against the fluffy dark blue bedspread, bouncing as his weight lifted off of you. He looked down at you with hunger and desire in his eyes. As if it was made of paper, Jimin grabbed a hold of the collar lining of your dress and ripped the fabric off of you; with strength you had never seen before but no longer surprised. He pulled his shirt apart as buttons cluttered the floor. His chest lean and fit in every way. He was absolutely perfect in every sense of the word - a dream.

The look of lust in your eyes made him smile with confidence. Licking his lips, you took notice of his sharp canines poking at his bottom plump lip. The sudden urge to feel them sink into you again ran through you. Every move he made was confident and dominant. He knew exactly what he wanted and he wasn’t wasting anytime. His fingers hooked under the waistband of your black silky, cheeky panties and yanked them down with force.

Following suit, you helped him by pulling off your matching push-up bra; revealing your breasts. You let down your hair as it remained in a bun, letting it fall messily. Laying back against the soft sheets, you raised your arms above your head and squirmed your legs slightly; silently begging to be touched. Jimin bit his lip as he watched your little show. A hint of blood on your neck, naked and a core swollen and wet with arousal; he thought he was going to lose his mind. He pulled down his pants, leaving him bare as his erection strained for attention. His cock was thick, twitching as veins pulsed on the sides. His tip red, leaking with his own arousal. Crawling over top of you, he laid between your legs; looking deep into your eyes.

“Do you have any idea how beautiful you are? It’s taken every strength in my body not to do this sooner. I want to devour every inch of you, Y/N.” His confession made you ache. You arched your back. Your core grazing his tip, making him hiss from the contact.

“Devour me then. I’m all yours, Jimin. I want to feel everything…” In your own way, giving him permission to bite you again. You craved it. In more ways than one, you wanted him. You needed him.

“As you wish, sweetheart. I’ll give you anything your heart desires.” His words became quieter and quieter as his lips made way to your neck. His firm hand roamed your curves until they found your breast. His fingers swirling over your perked nipple as his tongue cleaned the sensitive holes on your neck. They were already beginning to heal but he craved more. The taste of you was sweeter than he imagined. Your scent and beauty drew him to you in an instant when he first met you. Now, there was no way he was ever letting you go. He was already so addicted and infatuated with you.

Your legs spread wider as he lowered himself to your breasts. Smelling every inch of your skin until he rested at your mounds. With both hands, he squeezed your breasts together; allowing his tongue to wander from nipple to nipple. His snake-like tongue swirled around each bud, flicking the tips and making you moan for mercy. Such a skill could easily make you reach an orgasm if he kept teasing you like this.

By your surprise, his teeth pierced into your left breast. Blood trickled down your chest. Jimin made sure to capture every drop as his tongue lapped up from your stomach up to the holes he formed. Drinking your sweet nectar in moderation and allowing you to heal from the beautiful pain. Anticipation radiated inside of him as he lowered himself between your legs. Admiring every part of you from your thighs to your glistening core. The sight drove him insane. His cock twitched as he watched your swollen core throb; craving his attention.

“I don’t know how much I can hold back. Every part of you is perfect.” Jimin’s lips skimmed over the inside of your thigh, teasing you in the worst way possible.

“Please don’t hold back. Just...touch me. Please. I feel like I’m going to explode,” you begged. You looked between your legs to watch the blonde smirk as his tongue prepped your leg for his next mark. He gripped your thighs tightly, kneading and massaging them. His tongue unexpectedly slithered from your thigh right to your core; licking a wet stripe up your folds and around your clit.

“Ahhh Jimin,” you moaned loudly; not a care if anyone can hear you. Your hips rolled against his tongue as he kitten licked your clit. His plump lips wrapped around the bud and sucked as his tongue drew circles around your muscle. Your fingers instinctively laced through his soft yellow hair, pulling on the strands to keep his head in place. He moaned against your core as he could feel you quivering below his tongue. His hips subtly grinded against the silky sheet to get any friction he could. So eager to feel your warmth as he could taste something just as sweet as what ran through your veins.

Your orgasm was right on the edge. He could feel your muscle tightening as your breathing staggered and your moans grew louder. Pulling away, he replaced his tongue with the pads of his fingers; rubbing your wet clit in quick movements. Simultaneously, he bit down into your thigh. Your arousal causing the blood to spill onto his tongue with intensity as it pumped faster through your veins. The moment he broke through the skin, your orgasm ignited throughout your body. Your legs shook as he sucked every drop you gave him as his fingers never ceased. You climbed down from your prolonged high; an orgasm so intense, you felt like you were floating.

Jimin found his restraint and pulled away from your wound. Something inside of him left him hungry still - much like a frenzy state of mind. The insatiable man crawled up your convulsing body and lined his tip to your entrance. Looking into your eyes, he could see a fire burning inside of them. A gaze filled with want and need that he reciprocated. His hands slid up your arms and wrapped around your wrists; keeping them in place. His golden brown eyes never leaving yours as he slowly entered you.

In unison, exhaling lust filled moans as his thickness stretched your walls until he filled you to the brim. You balled your hands into fists as you adjusted to his size. Your orgasm making you tighter and more sensitive to the sensation - heightening the pleasure even more. Jimin groaned as you clenched around him. His tongue rolled over his canines that you quickly grew to love.

With just a few slow pumps, he thrusted in and out of you to coat his cock with your arousal and stretch you fully. The feeling of his length massaging your walls became wetter and rhythmic, he lost control and unleashed his darkest desires. A speed you had never experienced before, Jimin thrusted in and out of you with great magnitude. Each thrust into your g-spot better than the last. With all the strength you had left, you wrapped your legs around his waist to get him as deep as possible. His grip on your wrists tightened so, you were sure it would leave a bruise.

His vampiric strength and speed took over as he pounded you over and over. Accessing that perfect pressure point inside of you that sent your body into overdrive.

“Fuck, baby. I can’t...hold back anymore. You feel so fucking good. So tight and wet…” Jimin moaned in between his words. Breathless as his hips smacked against yours. The sweat on your bodies sticking to each other as your arousal dampened the sheets below. The way he rolled his hips gave you the right amount of friction to call out for your second orgasm.

“Don’t stop. I’m...gonna… I’m…g-” You couldn’t even form the words before you came harder than imaginable. Your lungs nearly gave out from screaming as the electricity coursed through your veins. Your walls clenched tightly around his cock, making him groan as his orgasm pulsed through his length. His orgasm squirted inside of you, spilling out of you with each thrust that remained. The feeling was so intense, you bit down on your lip; breaking the skin and tasting blood on your tongue.

Mixed heavy breaths and subsiding whines, the two of you reached a plateau as your bodies calmed down. Once the rush left your body, you felt yourself growing weaker. Jimin looked you over, making sure you were okay. The scent of your blood hit his nose and he leaned forward to gently kiss you. A kiss that was so sweet and tender, it felt like you were dreaming.

“Are you okay,” Jimin asked as he kissed the corners of your mouth before looking at you. There was worry in his eyes but you graced him with a tired smile.

“I’m okay. Just very tired. Is it okay if I close my eyes for a minute before I leave,” you asked sheepishly. You weren’t sure if you were staying the night or not but you honestly didn’t feel like you could make it home without fainting. Your boyfriend gave you a kind smile and brushed your hair.

“Sweetheart, I’m not letting you go anywhere. You need rest. You lost a lot of blood. Let me take care of you.” Sleepily, you nodded your head. Jimin lifted your body gently to rest at the head of the bed. Already, you were half asleep; only partially aware of what was happening. Zoning in and out as Jimin cleaned your wounds and bandaged them with care. The last thing you remember is his perfect naked form lying down beside you, holding you close as you fell asleep. Although it was unclear if when you closed your eyes, if you were going to awake from a dream and fall into one.

Fourth and final meme of the day

I was also tagged by @soeven - thank you too!

Favourite colour:

Blue. Every shade from indigo to palest sky blue.

Top three ships:

Cassian/Jyn, Leia/Han, Eowyn/Faramir.

Lipstick or chapstick:

Chapstick/lip balm every time. I made several attempts at being a regular make-up wearer when I was younger but in the end I just can’t be bothered; it doesn’t make me feel any better about myself, it costs money I’d rather spend on things that matter more to me, and I tend to eat the lipstick off my mouth without even noticing it, which is a bit yucky.

Last song:

I have Chill Radio playing at the moment but it’s all blurring into one uneventful happy mist of sound and I’m not sure what the last actual song was. Last song I’m conscious of hearing and really registering was on Saturday; the last singer in the final of Cardiff Singer of the World performed “I got me a cat” from Aaron Copland’s “Old American Songs” at the end of his performance.

Last movie:

Godzilla, King of the Monsters.

Currently reading:

“Growing pains”, an autobiography by the Canadian painter Emily Carr.

Thank you for tagging me!

1. What is your favourite form of transportation, and why?

In an ideal world I would never fly again; I’d go everywhere by train and ship. I really couldn’t choose between them for pleasure and interest as methods of travelling (& obviously they are suitable for different environments!).

2. What is something that is natural and easy for you now, but it used to seem impossible?

Not eating sugary things; sweets, chocolate, cakes and biscuits, dessert. I had a massive sweet tooth for most of my life and the idea of cutting down on sweet stuff was impossible to imagine.

And then I did it. Nothing like a diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, and the realisation you have one chance to avoid dying seriously prematurely, to really freak you out. Within 24 hours of getting the news I found myself in the supermarket looking at what had been some of my favourite things to eat and feeling physically sick. I’d been happily stuffing myself with these things and it had been killing my pancreas. I had a violent disgust response to the mere sight of sweets for well over a year.

Now I can’t imagine ever wanting that stuff again. I weigh 25% less than I did and my diabetes is officially “in remission”, i.e. I’ve had normal blood results for the last three years. Hell of a shock, but I’m good with that.

3. What is a book you read recently that you really liked?

“How to dress for success” by Edith Head and Joe Hyams. Informative, interesting and at times very funny, plus Edith head really knew her stuff and much of what she writes is just as valid today as it was in the more formal days when she was a top Hollywood designer.

4. Who is the Strongest Avenger?

Even-odds between Hawkeye and Natasha.

5. How do you decide if you are going to finish a book, or tv series, that you have started? How long do you give a book / series before you decide you’re not going to continue?

Aargh, that’s a really difficult question! It depends on so many factors. Sometimes there’s something really clear, like brutal gratuitous violence, misogyny, or the realisation that the author has a social or political agenda that I despise and don’t want to see justified or normalised. Sometimes it dawns on me that I dislike every single character and don’t give a flying fuck what happens to any of them. Sometimes something is just so appallingly badly written that I physically can’t stand to read another page. Sometimes I get just bored.

But if the plot is halfway decent then I know that if I don’t finish something then I’m always going to wonder what happened, and that can keep me reading, even if I’m only skimming.

I’ve been known to give up on a book after a single chapter, or a film after 10 minutes, but I’ve also been known to read more than half of a long series of fantasy novels (The Wheel of Time, if you’re interested) before finally accepting it had simply lost me and I was no longer enjoying it.

6. What album, or song, do you listen to on repeat?

Have to admit I don’t often do this; when I do, these days it’s mostly with classical music. The Brahms violin sonatas; Michael Nyman’s Piano Concerto; On an overgrown path by Leoš Janáček.

When I was a teenager, it was probably the album Animals by Pink Floyd.

7. What do you like to drink with breakfast?

Black coffee!

8. What is something you learned or accomplished in the past 12 months, that you are proud of?

I’ve probably written about another 250,000 words in the last twelve months including another novel-length fic, and I’m pretty proud of that.

9. What is your favourite word or phrase in your native language?

I’m not sure I have one. Looking at my answers to these memes I’ve been doing today, I feel like it should be “I hate choosing favourites!”

10. What is your favourite trope or theme to read in fanfic?

Angst with a HEA. Ideally with some mutual pining and character growth along the way.

11. Are you a robot?

Way to get philosophical there! I’m fully human so far as I know… but would I even know if I was a robot? Would you? – would any of us? We could all be scraps of code in a vast computer simulation, Matrix-style.

I hope we’re not, though. Reality is a mess but it’s a beautiful word for all its troubles.
