Joe, peeling a banana: May I take your coat, sir? Frank: Do you think other people can't hear you?

Quote time (Finnish music edition :---D)!

Be it distance or time, nothing can keep us apart

I will protect you from everything that you'll ever think to fear

I thought I was disappearing / but I still found my way back

I've rowed a boat on a foggy morning

There is no such darkness / that my fragile hand cannot defy

In the background, a sun that does not warm us

Today we can be Kings, just for a moment

Life is just a daydream of song

I mean given that most of the quotes I sent to you were from songs on one specific Finnish album I've been listening to today (and then two I think were from Finrod-zong because I'm unreasonably in love with it) that's very fair :D

"Be it distance or time, nothing can keep us apart" - I haven't written any Old Guard fic but I feel like this would be a Nicky/Joe thing tbh (I need to watch Old Guard again I love those fools so much)

"I will protect you from everything that you'll ever think to fear" - hmm. lots of options :D For some reason my mind is going to Silmarillion, Elrond and Elros as children, Elros sort of looking after Elrond (since I headcanon that between the two, Elrond was much more shy and wary, and Elros was kind of the brave one a lot of the time). Of course, neither of them ever think to fear that they might one day be separated. There's many horrible things in the world, many dangers, the threat of death and destruction hanging over all the world every moment of every day, but surely, whatever fate befalls them, they'll face it together, right?

"I thought I was disappearing / but I still found my way back" - for some reason I'm thinking DS9 and Garashir. Maybe Julian for whatever reason means to or tries to run away (maybe after the whole mess about him being an augment and all that) and somehow manages to slip away without even Garak figuring out in time... and then he returns. Because he cannot leave. Because his home, his heart (both in romantic and platonic sense) is at DS9.

"I've rowed a boat on a foggy morning" this would be something chill, maybe kind of character study-ish. I'd probably take the title and make it sort of symbolical, about the kind of inviting softness of the fog, the way that it dampens the sounds and limits how far you can see. How on one hand it can feel very secure and safe, because it's so quiet and calm and no one can see or hear you. How on other hand it can feel so lonely, and like you're losing your way. I'm not sure which character this would be tho

"There is no such darkness / that my fragile hand cannot defy" - this is about Lúthien. Like, I don't know the plot, but this is about her

"In the background, a sun that does not warm us" - hmm. Maybe a story of the first year after the Fall of Númenor, as Elendil and Isildur and Anárion settle into their new lives and begin building their realms. A story of their grief and loss, and of going forward nonetheless

"Today we can be Kings, just for a moment" - (hey, I actually know where this is from! I think anyway) maybe a story of some of the Finweans in the first age - maybe Galadriel and Finrod, at least, and Turgon and idk let's say Fingon. Their expectations, their desires, their intentions in going to Middle-Earth... and the truth of it, both the good and the bad, of what they actually find there and what they make of their lives there

"Life is just a daydream of a song" - this kinda has a tolkien vibe but I have no idea who or what this would be about

Frank: Alright, we've tried things your way. Joe: No, we didn't? Frank: I did it in my head, it doesn't work.

By contrast of Frank, Joe believed in the magic of Santa well into his early teen years. Some small part of him still believes. He spent many Christmas Eves trying -- and failing -- to capture Santa on video, or to hear the sound of reindeer hooves on the roof. He even believed in the Polar Express, to the point where he'd stare out his bedroom window looking for it every year. Despite growing up, Joe loves the magic of the holidays, will practically puke decorations all over the place, and he frequently gets cards from those Giving Trees to splurge on the gifts for the kids in need. His most ardent belief is that no one should ever spend Christmas alone; he is always happy to volunteer his time wherever he's needed in order to spread some cheer and love.

One thing I've learned about dropping the Hardys into a Bones AU is that Joe would do well with some therapy and Frank Would Not

My Joe is pansexual and bigender. He thinks there’s no such thing as an unattractive person, as he’s always been a sucker for a pretty face and even prettier personality. Gender wise, while he’s often quite masculine, he also rolls with his femineity, and he’s fine with all pronouns, though he/him are often the default. He only really discovered his gender identity after doing drag for the first time and was like, “OH! Am I into this? I am totally into this! I like being a pretty girl!”

Joe’s a fan of anything that sounds good, musically wise. His tried and true fall back is hard rock and/or “emo punk”, such as My Chemical Romance, Linkin Park or Fall Out Boy. But he also loves video game soundtracks, pop, classic rock and some musicals. He has a particular fondness for Taylor Swift, and owns all of her albums.

What is your true role in the story?

the supporter

oh gentle comrade, you know what it takes to make others shine. you live your life assisting others to reach their goals, but many say you are lackluster and unnecessary. but alas, do we need the stars any less for their dim light helps the moon glow brighter! you are warm inside and out, perhaps made of sunshine one might ask? but I can see you are as weary and worn as the hero you so desperately cling to. your purpose is to serve? Is it not? it's those moments of undying loyalty that make your bones ring true with honor. "I am right beside you," you whisper, for unlike the ones who lie through their teeth you will be with your ally through joy, through heart ache, through death. it is a difficult thing to gain your trust back if one has shattered it though, you are forgiving yes? you give many chances, but alas, one can only look away from a wrong doing so long. you can't exactly turn your other cheek as once wrings a blade through your middle. you are made of a steadfast heartbeat and a tired, knowing smile. you bring solace to the aching, and comfort to the wronged. but what happens when your protagonist loses? what happens when your valiant heroes fail you? will you pick up a sword and vanquish their enemy or will you wait patiently for yet another savior to appear and save the day? one must live long enough to see their heroes die. but are you brave enough to take their place? the only strings that bind you to your oaths of subservience are your own doubts. "am I good enough?" they whisper in your ears. you answer that yourself love. for the only difference between the paladin and the stable boy are mettle. it is not the question of can you be a hero. it is simply, will you be?

Which Planet Are You

EARTH

No amount of blankets is going to change the fact that you’re still falling apart inside, that it feels like everything you’ve ever done wrong is crawling underneath your skin, that you feel like there’s something wrong with you but everyone says that it’s fine, you’re fine, it’s all going to end up okay but you can’t change anything, no, it’s not in your control, they say. They’re wrong. You deserve to get better. Don’t you? Aren’t you tired of the bags under your eyes, of the weight on your shoulders? You have a hard time figuring out which relationships are toxic because they’re so fundamentally ingrained into your personality - or so you think - and you don’t know quite how to take care of yourself. You want to touch the stars but you’re so stuck in your problems rather than your dreams it feels like drowning, not flying, and it’s hard to tell the difference between the two feelings of weightlessness.

Joe’s main love languages are Physical Touch/Affection and Quality Time. He’s an extremely tactile person, he greatly enjoys touching the people he loves, something as simple as holding hands can make him giddy. While he enjoys sex to the point where he’s borderline hypersexual, he never pressures his partner, preferring to cuddle if they’d rather. As for Quality Time, he just likes being around the people he loves. He knows that sometimes he can be a bit much, so when someone genuinely wants to spend extended time with him, Joe will be over the moon.
