#.....still might make this my icon someday

i've been thinking about the whole "friction in his jeans" thing a lot lately, and while it is certainly one of the more iconic instances of the lyric in the CD booklet being different from the actual song, it is far from the only one. on top of that, there are quite a few lyrics that play with double meanings that only become clear when they're written out.
so, i present a collection of every lyric in the fob CD booklets that differ from the final version, punctuation and double meanings that aren't noticeable unless the song is written out, and any other interesting details i find in the process, or a really long post of me cornplating about fob:
disclaimer that if the difference is small enough/doesn't change the meaning of the line i won't include it because that would take me years (for example, the book says "light that smoke for giving up on me" and patrick says "yeah, one for giving up on me" but literally who cares that changes nothing. everything i include here is relevant, i think)
follow-up disclaimer that there are a bunch of fucking typos in every single one of these books because these boys never proofread anything but unless i think it's significant in some way i probably will skip it
TAKE THIS TO YOUR GRAVE:
tell that mick:
"I hope you choke on those words, that kiss, that bottle - I confess / now ash yourself out on the insides, when I said I loved you I swear I lied"
grand theft autumn:
"someday i'll appreciate in value, get off my ass and call you... but for the meantime i'll sport my brand new fashion of waking up with my clothes on at 4:00 in the afternoon"
saturday:
"pete and i said goodbye to astoria with promise and precision and mess of youthful innocence"
(most of these are just silly but this one fucking hurts)
sending postcards:
"fake it like you matter - cause that's the biggest secret you have to keep"
chicago is so two years ago:
"that means that I believed every single lie you said (and learned from the best)"
"cause every pain of glass that your pebbles tap negates the pains i went through to avoid you / and every little pat on the shoulder for attention fails to mention i still hate you" (pain of glass instead of pane of glass - i think this is supposed to be a parallel. that or pete just misspelled pane)
patron saint:
"I'm holding out and I'm holding on to every letter and every grudge"
*flashes forward 20 years to hmlag*
anyway
FROM UNDER THE CORK TREE:
our lawyer made us change the name of this song so we wouldn't get sued:
"we're good friends only when you're on your knees"
sugar:
the icon, the legend
"don't mind me, i'm watching you two from the closet wishing to be the friction in his jeans" 🎉🏳️‍🌈
dark alley:
"joke me something awful just like kisses on the necks of 'just friends'"
"I'm hopelessly hopeful that you're just hopeless enough"
champagne for my real friends, real pain for my shrimp friends:
"you steer away in a rearview mirror, make my head swim"
i slept with someone in fob:
"someone old, no one new / always borrowed, always you"
THIS ONE!! THIS FUCKING ONE [CAR CRASH] [SIRENS]
ahem. anyway
sixteen candles:
"i confess, i'm just messed up / dropping 'i'm sorrys' like you're still around"
XO:
"to hands"
(that's it. no "between legs, and whatever it takes" just hands. just fuckin. to hands)
"to hotel stares/stairs" (wordplay!! to clarify it literally says "stares/stairs" in the book)
"choose awe or sympathy"
also in the last verse it says 'to the "love"' with the quotes which is just kinda funny
INFINITY ON HIGH:
this ain't a scene:
"crashing not like hips or hearts"
i'm like a lawyer:
"i only keep myself this sick in the head cause i know how the words get you (off)"
"collect the bad habits that you couldn't bare to keep" (idk this one might just be a typo)
hum hallelujah:
similarly, this might also be a typo, but "versus" is spelled "verses"
(after) life:
ok. ok. hear me out. this is the cornplatiest i have ever been. but on genius it says "death's in a double bed"
and on the lyric book it says "deaths in a double bed"
that changes everything!!! (not really, i know) it's not death as a concept or figure or whatever it's deaths. as in multiple people dying. aaaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaughhhhhhhhhhh
moving on
carpal tunnel:
"we take the sip from life's lush lips"
the line "we might've started singing just a little soon" isn't listed, it's just the goodbye line twice
"but i'm just tired yawns for fawns"
you're crashing:
"the cause, the kid, the charm, and the curse"
ginasfs:
"lips pressed this close to mine"
"but the prince of this failing empire knows" (hhhnnnggggggghhh)
"i've already given up on myself once but the third time is the charm" that's not how numbers work pete <3
"just kind of figured on not figuring myself out"
FOLIE A DEUX:
folie a deux doesn't have a lyric book. just portraits of the boys with empty white pages that have their names written on them. my poor beautiful masterpiece
BELIEVERS NEVER DIE VOL. 1:
fnowae:
not a lyric but for some reason the whole fuckin song is in quotes
SAVE ROCK AND ROLL:
the phoenix:
another punctuation thing but instead of "hope to die" it's "hope-to-dies"
"you're wearing our vintage misery"
alone together:
"my heart is like a stallion, they love it more when it's broke in" instead of "broken" (i love double meanings!! i love wordplay!! i love pete wentz!!)
where did the party go:
"i will appear to you if you make yourself shake fast enough"
the mighty fall:
the lyric book straight up doesn't have big sean's part 💔
rat a tat:
at the end there's this "talk less / mean more / let's be electric / like we were before" that i have literally never heard so i'm assuming it's a neat little cut lyric
save rock and roll:
"i will save the songs / the songs we're singing"
AMERICAN BEAUTY / AMERICAN PSYCHO:
irresistible:
"coming in announced" this one. this one's just a typo. come on boys it's been 12 years at this point read the books more than once
"i just dragged my nails on the tile / i just follow your scent" ?? idk
"this will not be a battle"
ab/ap:
for some fucking reason it just says "she's an american beauty" three times at the start of the song 😭
"and as we're drifting off to sleep" isn't in there, it just says "and all those dirty thoughts of me, they were never yours to keep"
the kids aren't alright:
indulge me once more, reader. i am cornplating again
instead of "former heroes who quit too late and just wanna fill up their trophy case again" it's "wanted to" do you understand why that makes me insane
also they have it as "will put your curse in reverse" instead of "we" which could be a typo but could also be a neat little change
uma thurman:
"you cut me deep like uma thurman"
jet pack blues:
"i'm the kind that can turn june to september / the last one that you'll ever remember"
"between these two white highway signs"
immortals:
"i try to picture you without me but i can't"
M A N I A:
hold me tight or don't:
the line "i'm pretty sure that this isn't how our story ends" isn't included
wilson:
"i know it's just a number but to me you're the 8th wonder"
sunshine riptide:
they didn't include any of burna boy's lines 😒
SO MUCH (FOR) STARDUST:
smfs doesn't have any lyric changes that i noticed, just the usual typos.
update: future emma here, upon further contemplation I have decided to add the line "I'd never go, I just want to be invited" since the first verse definitely says "I'll" (thank you sugarweregoinin and foliejpg for inspiring this revelation)
and there we have it! if you're insane patient enough to have made it until the end, thank you for reading and i hope you enjoyed! if there are any i missed/any in CDs that i don't have please let me know i find these so fascinating (if you couldn't tell). i just love getting glimpses into their writing process and seeing how the songs we know and love evolve before they get to us. i might also do a post about how spotify/genius gets a bunch of their lyrics wrong because it pisses me off but this is all for now, good day/night!

Welcome + Rules
Welcome to the Tumblr Found Family Adoption Agency! Here, we present your blorbos to the masses to have them vote upon whether they should be added to the collective tumblr found family or ditched on the roadside. Submit your blorbos here:
See which blorbos have already joined the found family HERE! To avoid seeing the results posts, mute "ffaa results" The rules are: 1. Play nice; be respectful to others 2. Blorbos can be of any age, since a found family can be just that. So feel free to submit a one-day old infant or a ten thousand year old tree, if those are your blorbos 3. No Harry Potter 4. No real people (might make an exception if it's funny) 5. "No real people" includes no individual tumblr users, youtubers or streamers (this might seem obvious, but there were still a lot of them submitted) 6. No OCs. All your OCs are great and I'd feel sad if they got rejected from the found family F.A.Q. under readmore:
(No one has actually asked any questions, but these are the ones I'm anticipating) Some of these questions have been asked now lol Q. How does this work? A. A post featuring a blorbo shall be made, stating who they are and their source material. A poll will be attached set to one week, asking if we should "adopt" or "ditch" the blorbo. At the end of the week, based on the result, I will announce if they blorbo has been adopted into the tumblr found family or ditched on the roadside Q. What is a found family? A. A found family is a family you find for yourself. It is a term often used in fandom to describe a group of characters who aren't related by blood (although a few members might be) but have come to think of each other as a family through circumstance. Alternatively, they might not be officially recognised as a found family in canon, but wider fanon regards them as such Q. Is this a tournament bracket? A. Nope, blorbos aren't competing against each other, they're only here to be judged by you. We are here enternally submitting blorbos (at least until I run out of steam or pass away lol) Q. I'm not sure if my blorbo counts because of ___ reason? A. If it's not any of the reasons mentioned in the rules, then feel free to send an ask. Or just submit them anyway and I'll decide Q. I submitted a blorbo and they haven't been posted. Did you get them? A. Again, feel free to send an ask. I don't have a regular schedule for posting these. Somedays there'll be batches of polls, others there'll be one or none Q. My blorbos are a duo/trio/etc., who cannot be separated. Can I submit them as a group? A. While I would prefer to stick to individual characters, if you have some who absolutely cannot be separated, I might make exceptions. Most likely, I'll make a poll asking if they should be judged as a group or individually, since there's a lot of media I won't be familiar with Q. My blorbo got ditched on the roadside! Fuck you! A. Friend, as a fan of Theseus from Hades Game, I understand what it's like to have your fave hated by fandom. Anything decided on this blog can never affect your personal headcanons, so go in peace with your middle finger held high Q. What are your icon and header? A. The icon is of the Pokemon Bouffalant and Natu, based on a series of trading card art where Bouffalant finds two Natu and rescues them - the true spirit of found family. The header is a group of characters called the Black Ravens from the Professor Layton series - a group of ragtag working-class kids who make a black market together Q. I wrote some propaganda on the submission form, can you post it or send it back to me? A. Submissions are deleted as the polls are posted, so I can keep track of how many I have left to post, which means I can't do this. Please save your propaganda for the post and not the submissions form Q. Did you know you used fan art on ___ poll? A. Unless I'd mentioned getting permission from the artist, then please assume that I did not know and let me know. I hate art theft and wouldn't want to partake in that, but I'm just not familiar with a good 80% of the series submitted, so sometimes it might slip through the cracks Q. Can I submit a character who isn't my blorbo? A. Also fine! I enjoy it when people submit controversial characters to see how they'll do Q. What happens if there's a tie? A. The blorbo in question becomes an occassional family member who appears with our found family for some important cutscenes, but isn't officially considered part of the found family
Q. No, but seriously, my blorbo got ditched. Do they get another chance? A. At the beginning of each year we host a Redemption Event, where any past blorbos who were submitted get another chance. Because of the high volume of ditched characters, to be included in the event your character will need to be submitted with propaganda via a form that will be released a month before the event Q. I think the image used is a big reason why my blorbo got ditched. Why did you use that image? A. If an image hasn't been submitted, I will just grab one from an image search result in most cases. You know your blorbos best, so if you have a specific (non-fan art) image that you think shows them in their best light, please do submit it when you submit them Q. Did you mean the book version or movie version of that character? A. Whichever version of the blorbo that gets submitted, that'll be the one I use. If no specific version is mentioned, I'll just post that blorbo in general and use whatever image is most common when I look them up, unless an image has been submitted or a book cover has been requested to be used Q. My blorbo is a character played by a youtuber and/or streamer, not the youtuber or streamer themselves, is that okay? A. If it's a character, then it's fine. But please mention this on the submission. Because if I look them up and the result looks to be just some real person, that won't be included Q. What counts as a "sweep"? A. Any character who gets 90% or higher in either adopt or ditch is counted as a sweep. This doesn't give them anything extra, it's just for bragging rights Q. What counts as a "close call"? A. Any character who's poll results are within the 49%-51% range for adopt/ditch is counted as a close call Q. How many characters can I submit at a time? A. There's no hard rule, since the form doesn't track emails, but please be considerate to others and try not to submit more than 10 characters per submission period. See next question for more details Q. How many characters from the same series can I submit at a time? A. Four (4) characters per series per submission period. I'll be lenient for if they've been submitted by multiple people, but from my experience running this blog, it's only the current Hot New Thing that'll be submitted by multiple people and anything else is usually one person submitting one character after another. I used to allow more, but people took this for granted and submitted 50+ from the same series, so now 4 is the cap Q. You missed a tag from that poll! Can it be added? A. Sure! Tags are either provided by the submitter or where left blank, I'll use my best guess. At minimum, you'll get the name of the character and series as they've been submitted. If you know more, let me know and I'll add them to the post during the voting period. Please note: The polls themselves cannot be edited after being posted, only the tags Q. I don't understand what this blog is A. Don't worry about it, friend. Just keep driving and whatever you do, don't wind down the window. We'll be safe soon :)

TBOSAS on Crack short take (64)
*How Dr. Gaul’s Reaping Day Speech went*
Coryo: *enters Heavensbee Hall* Ugh. I’m tired.😞 I should’ve waited for Seji Pie’s car to pick me up.
Clemensia: Snowy! Snowy, over here!
Festus: Coryo, my bro, they’re serving posca today!
Coryo: Free posca?🥹
Festus: Yeah! Free posca!
Felix: And a scandalously tasting lamb!
Coryo: Nice! Let me just grab a plate real quick.
Lysistrata: No need! You can have my plate instead.😊
Coryo: Thank you, Lizzie. You’re the best.
Lysistrata: Of course I am.
Felix: Try the lamb stew first. It’s really delicious.
Coryo: Well, don’t mind if I do-
Clemensia: Bestie, are you sweating right now?
Coryo: Yeah.
Clemensia: Did you walk from your place to school again?
Coryo: Unfortunately.
Festus: I thought you and your darling boyfriend decided to take his car to school today?
Coryo: I thought so too. However, Strabo Plinth happened.
Felix: Did your Seji Pie stood you up because of his scheming father?
Coryo: No, not really. Ma called me earlier and said that her two beloved idiots were having another shouting match about the Hunger Games again.
Festus: Why though?
Clemensia: Its Reaping Day, you child.🙄
Festus: Reaping Day?! That’s today?!
Clemensia: Obviously.
Festus: But I thought today was Flower Power Friendship Day!
Coryo: ✨FPFD✨ was last month, Creed!
Festus: Oh. My mistake. Now I feel bad for wearing my glow in the dark sunflower suit for this solemn event.😞
Coryo: Well, at least you’re not wearing your blinding mirrorball suit like last time.
Festus: To be fair, I thought we were celebrating ✨Glitter Glam Dance Dance Baby Day✨, and not Highbottom’s Killer Kids Game.
Felix: But seriously, Creed, stop wearing your weird suits every Reaping Day. People might think that you’re being undeniably churlish and disrespectful.
Festus: Fine! But no promises.
Androcles: At least you’re not wearing inappropriate short shorts like Heavensbee-
Hilarius: My Reaping Day short shorts are classy and iconic, Andie! They even make my long luscious legs look fabulous.
Androcles: I disagree.
Hilarius: But-
Urban: Honestly, Hilari, Anderson is right. Your Reaping Day short shorts just make you look like a stupid kinky whor-
Lysistrata: Watch your profanities, Ban Ban.
Urban: You’re not my mom!
Lysistrata: Thank Panem for that.
Hilarius: My short shorts are beautiful!
Androcles: Doubt.
Coryo: *sighs* I wish my Seji Pie was here right now-
Sejanus: *suddenly appears and hugs Coryo from behind* My love, I’m finally here!
Coryo: What’s wrong, Babe? Why are you crying?
Sejanus: You have to help me fight my evil old man again!😭
Coryo: Fine. Let’s go.
Felix: May the odds be ever in your favor, brother.
Coryo: Thanks. *walks away to confront Strabo with a crying Sejanus*
Lysistrata: Poor Sejanus. He’s going to make a scene again, isn’t he.😔
Clemensia: I hope not.
Felix: But he probably will.
Hilarius: I’ll bet 50 bucks that he’ll throw his chair at our poor innocent screen again.
Festus: Like last year’s Hunger Games?
Dennis: Lol. Last year was wild.
Androcles: Last year was awful.
Urban: What do you mean by awful Last time I checked, we don’t watch the Hunger Games.
Felix: True. We have agreed to stop watching Highbottom’s Killer Kids Game for good because of poor Coryo’s mental and “feral” breakdowns.
Urban: Don’t forget about Apollo Ring’s endless crying and crazy Monty’s death screams.
Androcles: Of course I know that, Ban Ban. We all know that.
Dennis: To be fair, the blood and gore will only trigger our irreversible war traumas again.
Androcles: But that still didn’t stop rich boy Sejanus Plinth from throwing his chair at the screen last year.
Felix: He also threw mine.😢
Dennis: And mine.
Clemensia: Well, unlike the rest of you, I’m the only one who doesn’t have an irreversible war trauma-
Dennis: Yet. You don’t have one yet! But someday, you will!😀
Androcles: Eventually.
Dennis: Definitely.
Clemensia: Is that a threat?
Dennis: No. I just have a strong feeling that this year, you’ll finally develop one that will make your boring life more interesting-
Androcles: Just like the rest of us!
Clemensia: I would rather stay normal and boring.
Dennis: Don’t you want to connect with Palmyra Monty-
Clemensia: No.
Dennis: Or understand Persephone’s crazy behavior?
Clemensia: No.
Androcles: But Percy Price is great! I mean, just look at her sniffing and asking those unlucky students over there if they stole her “delicious” Maid Stew again.
Persephone: *is running wild all over the place* Where’s my Maid Stew?! Give me my Maid Stew! Festus, my love, did you hide my precious stew?! Weewoo! Where’s my stew?! Arachne, you b*tch! Give me my stew!
Festus: Not again.😞
Arachne: I’m so calling the Peacekeepers after this.
Felix: *sighs* I just hope that this year will be peaceful and productive for everyone-
Arachne: But you.
Felix: Don’t jinx me, Crane! I’ll curse you back!
Arachne: Lol. You can try-
Felix: I hope you’ll wear an ugly neck brace for the rest of the Hunger Games!
Arachne: Ha! Like that would ever happen-
Felix: Just you wait, Crane. Just you wait!
Clemensia: Yup. I would rather stay normal.
Hilarius: So. . . Who wants to continue the betting?😊
Urban: Fine. I’ll bet 70 bucks if Plinth throws at least 2 chairs at Dr. Gaul today.
Pup: A hundred if one of those chairs “accidentally” hits Highbottom.
Hilarius: A thousand if Highbottom blames poor Coryo for not defending him against Plinth.
Pup: Hilari, I thought you said that you don’t have any money left to bet since the day that your creepy old man froze your weekly allowance for good-
Hilarius: That’s why I’m betting.
Pup: You do know that your odds of winning are pretty low, right?
Hilarius: That’s why I’m betting everything.😎
Pup: Well, good luck being homeless and penniless before this day ends.
Hilarius: I’m not homeless! I’m just temporarily displaced and having indefinite sleepovers with Festus and his pet rats!
Pup: Please don’t tell me that you’re sleeping inside Creed’s rat infested dumpster-
Festus: Heavensbee is currently sleeping in my rat infested dumpster.
Pup: How the mighty have fallen.
Hilarius: FYI, Pup, Creed’s old dumpster was cozy and comfortably-
Lysistrata: Dirty.
Gaius: Yo, can I bet too?
Coryo: *joins the group again with a now happy Sejanus* Guys, please stop betting on my boyfriend’s random outbursts and anger issues.
Urban: Why?
Coryo: He will cry.
Sejanus: I will cry.
Festus: 20 bucks if Seji Pie yells “you’re all monsters” at the teachers again.
Sejanus: Double it.
Coryo: Festus, don’t encourage him!
Festus: But I need money.
Coryo: We all need money!
Sejanus: I have money.😀
Hilarius: Can I borrow-
Sejanus: No. You’re not my Coryo.
Hilarius: Sad.😢
Prof.Sickle: Children, sit down! We’re officially starting!
Felix: But we’re still eating-
Prof.Sickle: F*ck your lamb stew! Sit down!
Felix: My Gran Gran will hear about this.
Coryo: Let’s get this over with and go home to your place, Babe.
Sejanus: Will you hold and comfort me when I cry again, my love?🥺
Coryo: Always.
Festus: Front seat! Front seat! I’ll take the front seat!
Felix: Coryo, let me sit next to you-
Lysistrata: Me first!
Hilarius: No, me!
Apollo: Weewoo! Excuse me!
Diana: Bro, share the chair!
Androcles: Scooch over, Hilari! I’m sitting next to Felix.
Persephone: Festus!
Festus: Yes, my love?
Persephone: Sit on my lap!
Festus: Really?
Persephone: Sit on my lap now!
Festus: Yes, my queen!
Hilarius: Yo, Urban, can I sit on your lap?
Urban: F*ck off, Heavensbee.
Sejanus: Coryo-
Coryo: I’m already sitting on yours, Babe.
Sejanus: I know that and I love it, my love!😍 Every bit of it! Every single minute!
Coryo: Babe-
Sejanus: You can even sit on my lap forever!
Coryo: My love-
Sejanus: And ever and ever!
Prof.Sickle: Children! Children, for the love of Panem, please act normal today!
Palmyra: Define normal-
Dr.Gaul: *enters the scene* How tantalizing to see all your shining young faces on this auspicious day-
Androcles: Is this day really auspicious?
Felix: *is still holding and eating his lamb stew* Nah. This lamb stew is more auspicious than her.
Everyone: *snickers*
Gaius: Nice one, Class Pres!
Prof.Sickle: Children, quiet!
Dr.Gaul: *glares at Felix* I am Dr. Volumnia Gaul! Your humble Head Gamemaker-
Hilarius: She ain’t humble though-
Prof.Sickle: Heavensbee!
Hilarius: Just saying.
Dr.Gaul: *glares daggers at Hilarius* In charge of the War Department and all its affiliated concerns-
Festus: *stands up and praises the heavens* Thank Panem! Thank you, Panem! She’s not in charge of the Food Department!
Prof.Sickle: Creed-
Festus: *turns around and faces the crowd* Hip hip!
Everyone: Hooray!
Festus: Hip hip!
Everyone: Hooray!🥳
Festus: Hip hip-
Prof.Sickle: Creed, sit down!
Festus: I was just-
Dr.Gaul: *suddenly throws a chalkboard eraser at Festus* As I was saying, you stupid brat!
Festus: You were saying?
Vipsania: Wow. He just said that.
Diana: Creed is so brave.
Juno: And stupid.
Domitia: Definitely.
Livia: Lol. Somebody is getting another demerit again.
Festus: And it’s not gonna be me-
Prof.Sickle: For the love of my sh*tty salary, Creed! Sit the f*ck down and shut up!
Festus:. . .
Everyone:. . .
Prof.Sickle: Dr. Gaul, please continue.
Dr.Gaul: As I was saying, I’d broken free of my laboratory today-
Coryo: That was a big mistake.
Sejanus: True.
Felix: I concur.
Dr.Gaul: What is wrong with you?!
Coryo: Sejanus, my love, she is bullying me again!
Sejanus: Felix, give me your chair!
Felix: No.
Hilarius: Don’t be a coward, Class Pres! Give him your chair!
Felix: No! Sejanus will just throw my poor innocent chair again!
Hilarius: I need money!
Sejanus: I need a chair!
Hilarius: *stands up* Here! You can have my chair!
Sejanus: Ew. No. I’m not touching that.
Hilarius: Why?!😭
Sejanus: You know why!
Hilarius: Sleeping in a dumpster for 3 straight days doesn’t mean that I’m permanently filthy!
Festus: My pet rats disagree.
Prof.Sickle: Dr. Gaul, please continue!
Dr.Gaul: To examine you!
Apollo: Me?
Dr.Gaul: Yes, you! The leaders of the next generation-
Apollo: I’m going to be a leader?
Urban: I hope not.
Dr.Gaul: *is now giving everyone her infamous death stare* I won’t be around forever after all-
Clemensia: Thank Panem.
Felix: Thank you, Panem!
Diana: Panem is good!
Gaius: All the time!
Lysistrata: Penam is good?
Apollo: All the time!
Sejanus: My pockets are full!
Coryo: All the time!
Androcles: My grades are sh*t!
Urban: All the time!
Palmyra: My cooking is good!
Everyone: No!
Prof.Sickle: *is now losing her mind* Children, please! I’m begging you! Be normal! Be f*ckin’ normal! Just for today! Dammit! Just for this f*ckin’ day! Heck! Do it for me! Do it for your favorite teacher!
Livia: She’s not my favorite-
Prof.Sickle: I really really need that f*ckin’ salary raise, you monsters!😭
Dr.Gaul:. . .
Everyone:. . .
Felix: This lamb stew still tastes scandalous though.
Io: Felix, please-
Felix: Just saying.
Dr.Gaul: Highbottom was right! I should’ve retired years ago!😩

Perspective's Sentence Starters; 1989 (Taylor's Version) by Taylor Swift (Part III)
"SLUT!"
Being this young is art.
What if all I need is you?
Got love-struck, went straight to my head.
Got lovesick all over my bed.
Love to think you’ll never forget.
Lovelorn and nobody knows
I'll pay the price, you won't.
If I’m all dressed up, they might as well be lookin' at us.
If they call me a slut, you know it might be worth it for once.
If I'm gonna be drunk, I might as well be drunk in love.
Everyone wants him, that was my crime.
The wrong place at the right time.
In a world of boys, he's a gentleman.
We’ll pay the price, I guess.
This is luxury.
You're not sayin' you're in love with me.
It might blow up in your pretty face.
SAY DON'T GO
I've known it from the very start, we’re a shot in the darkest dark.
It won't stop.
Halfway out the door, but it won't close
I'm holdin' out hope for you.
Say, "Don't go".
I would stay forever if you say, "Don't go".
Why'd you have to lead me on?
Why’d you have to twist the knife?
Walk away and leave me bleedin’?
Why’d you whisper in the dark just to leave me in the night?
Now your silence has me screamin'.
You kiss me and it stops time.
I'm yours, but you're not mine.
Why'd you have to make me want you?
Why'd you have to give me nothin' back?
Why'd you have to make me love you?
I said, "I love you".
NOW THAT WE DON'T TALK
I heard from everybody.
You part the crowd like the Red Sea.
Did you get anxious though, on the way home?
I guess I'll never, ever know.
You grew your hair long.
You got new icons.
From the outside it looks like you're tryin' lives on.
I miss the old ways.
You didn't have to change.
I guess I don't have a say.
She said that it was for the best.
The more I gave, you'd want me less.
I cannot be your friend.
I pay the price of what I lost.
What do you tell your friends we shared dinners, long weekends with?
I can't pretend it's platonic.
She said to get it off my chest.
Remind myself the way you faded 'til I left.
I don't have to pretend I like acid rock.
Guess maybe I am better off now that we don't talk.
Guess this is how it has to be now that we don't talk.
SUBURBAN LEGENDS
You had people who called you on unmarked numbers in my peripheral vision.
All was quickly forgiven.
You were so magnetic, it was almost obnoxious.
I didn't come here to make friends.
We were born to be suburban legends.
When you hold me, it holds me together.
You kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever.
I had the fantasy that maybe our mismatched star signs would surprise the whole school.
You'd be more than a chapter in my old diaries with the pages ripped out.
I know that you still remember.
We were born to be national treasures.
You told me we'd get back together.
I broke my own heart 'cause you were too polite to do it.
You don't knock anymore and my whole life's ruined.
IS IT OVER NOW?
You still wouldn't go.
Let's fast forward to three hundred takeout coffees later.
I see your profile and your smile on unsuspecting waiters.
You dream of my mouth before it called you a lying traitor.
You search in every maiden's bed for somethin' greater.
Was it over when she laid down on your couch?
Was it over when he unbuttoned my blouse?
Was it over then?
Is it over now?
Your new girl is my clone.
Did you think I didn't see you?
At least I had the decency to keep my nights out of sight.
Only rumors 'bout my hips and thighs and my whispered sighs.
Oh, Lord, I think about jumpin' off of very tall somethings just to see you come runnin'.
Say the one thing I've been wanting.
Let's fast forward to three hundred awkward blind dates later.
If she's got blue eyes, I will surmise that you'll probably date her.
You search in every model's bed for somethin' greater.
SWEETER THAN FICTION
You never saw it comin'.
Now you've come undone.
Wish I could make it better.
Someday, you won't remember this pain you thought would last forever and ever.
I will say, "I knew it all along".
This life is sweeter than fiction.
All you got are your shattered hopes.
They never saw it comin'.
Now you're on to somethin'.
Proved me right when you proved them wrong.
It's like we don't remember the rain we thought would last forever and ever.
All at once, the rest is history.
Look at you now.
You've made us proud.
You know that I'll be there time and again.

deliriously in love with your dgm fanart. i stumbled into a full course buffet. exquisite, splendid, 10/10 no notes. do you have any DGM fic recs, bc i have suitcases full of DGM recs,
ok first of all thank you so much!! dgm is i think the thing i've drawn the most fanart for in my life cumulatively? in many bursts of insanity over the years. lol. so i have a lot of fun drawing it and i'm very honored that you like what i've made so much. also re: your other ask my worstie and collaborator ozwuv and i are working on it together since you sent it to both of us (we made a joint google doc to combine our perspectives lol) so the answer might not come from me but you'll get one!
second of all i am kind of an old livejournal era hag in terms of my taste in fanfiction in general and my history with this series in particular, so there are exactly three things in here that are less than a decade old and two of them are from 2016. naturally this means that a lot of it is now divergent with some details of how the plot and characterization and etc has actually gone (sorry to everyone back in the day who thought kanda was looking for some missing sister or something. one truly could not have possibly seen all of that coming). that said they still hold up to me in terms of general character dynamics and being fun and well written and such. recommendations also depend on what you like! i will generally not put that much shipping in here because there aren't that many of those i've read and would recommend in the first place (no hate to our strong and beautiful yaoi warriors, i used to read nearly anything back in the day, it's just that not too much of it has stuck with me) but there are some things that are so iconic to me that i could not in good conscience not include them. lots of this is kanda-centric because i like him :) putting it all below the cut
Hard Living by metisket - the aforementioned ship fic that's too iconic not to include. changed my brain chemistry when i first read it many many years ago. i seriously considered making it the only thing i put on here for a second just for the bit. To Me this is actually such a classic that it transcends shipping. the humor is very sharp and funny and i'm so in love with the concept of dying young for them meaning getting old early first and having to deal with it all together. they're so damn hilarious. it should happen to them. it does in my dreams. it never will but in my head there will always be a world where it does <3 i love to draw fanart of them as old decrepit men at 35 and maybe i'll post some of it someday. obviously it was written pre-alma so you just have to accept that it's wildly inaccurate in that regard. anyway pretty much anything this author has written for dgm is really good, i will put a few more metisket favorites on this list but check it all out even if i didn't include it. also this particular one is the inspiration for my most favoritest kanda fic <3 below
Blooming From the Mud by zarinthel - this is not just me shilling fic by someone i know. i am an absolute kanda diehard and this is really THE fic for me in terms of like hitting all the things i love about him. zar number one kanda understander. incredibly funny and compelling i don't care if you don't know anything about bleach (i don't either i haven't read it since middle school) or that you haven't read the fic it's inspired by (though you should) or that it's unfinished. you all should and in fact must read it. kanda's life is both so sad and so hilarious because of how sad it is and his pov here is just so excellently funny because he really is such a funny individual. also not a slash fic though it does really highlight how close and kind of insane his and allen's relationship is in a way that i find extremely delightful and accurate and just wonderful. they make me sick (positive). really good. so if you're a non shipper but you care about them you should read it and if you're a shipper you will also certainly enjoy it anyway so you should read it. truly for everyone!
Chimera Obscurant by moonsheen - i tend to struggle with most kanda/alma fix-it fanwork i've encountered despite loving them dearly because i rarely feel like anyone evokes the way their relationship is both strong and a bit unsettling (at least to me) without swinging around into being too edgy (i fully admit i have not explored super deeply because i get frustrated easily so i'm sure there are things that would appeal to me that i'm missing). this is one of the very few things i've read for them that i've been like yes i think this is beginning to get at the kind of atmosphere i want to see. if i remember correctly this was written before kanda came back to drag allen into accepting support and friendship so i'm just like "oh whatever" about its incompatibility with that. fanwork for ongoing stuff truly creates divergent timelines in my head. anyway this is the most nsfw thing that will end up in here and it's not particularly explicit, but heads up that it is there in case you're averse to that
In his Heart by harukami - another kanda/alma but just kanda technically. i read this and was so delighted that i made a :D face in real life. i've assimilated this into my worldview like i think this is something he would do. he's crazy like that.
Economies of Scale by liketolaugh - last kanda and alma one but this one's here less for the romantic aspect and more because i'm so endeared by the idea of fresh out of the lab kanda being so angry and miserable but also completely blindsided by all the stuff there is in the world. ten year old who is learning about so many new animals. really funny and cute and sad.
siblings, probably by scarlet666 - this one's for the kanda and lenalee enthusiasts. the best friends lovers. i love them so dearly i put the level of energy people usually put into shipping into their bestie-isms so naturally this was for me. huge shoutout to this person for writing 20k words about them if nobody else in the world has my back i know they do. i have the memory of a goldfish and this is long enough that i can't really scan quickly to refresh my memory and make more detailed comments but i know it deserves a spot on here. my note from when i bookmarked it just reads AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH but i never leave a comment in that field at all usually so that speaks volumes i think. life is so beautiful sometimes. peace and love on planet earth <3
Welcome Home by metisket - for the rest of this list i am about to hit you with the metisket beam. the author whose work i most fondly remember from my youth by far, which means that's what's stuck with me and what half of my recs will be. i love this one dearly because i love a normal person perspective in insane anime settings type of fic and reever is so delightfully normal and longsuffering and also funny as hell. love how his relationship with komui is in this. not a ship fic and am not recommending it as such but it did make me in the back of my head go "komui/reever is almost like roy/riza without the war crimes for people who are cringefail mad scientist enthusiasts." sane responsible second in command type slash babysitter who is devotedly loyal to crazy irresponsible boss but also wants to kill him a little bit. they're so great to me
Growing Up by Accident by metisket - just so kanda and allen and the way their relationship is. having the exact same feelings about something but approaching it so differently that they want to attack each other. love them 4ever. the way metisket writes allen's internal voice is also delightful to me (like not JUST here but in general). he's so jaded and funny. probably my favorite allen to read out of anyone who writes him ever. and kanda is always just so...kanda.......<3
Sand Castle by metisket - (smiles and blood leaks from the side of my mouth) i love you allen walker. i love this look at allen's growth pre-series from cross' perspective and how he managed to become the hilarious twisted convoluted wonderful little freak that he is. allen is so.....everything to me truly i would never have it any other way. really kind of darkly funny but also like agonizingly emotional. delightful
Mask and Mirror by metisket - love this take on what the inside of lavi's head is like, and also the way all the character dynamics shine through even in such a short thing, they're all so wonderfully cute and funny. the sense of humor is really great. lenalee didn't even make a real appearance but even the brief mention of how she and kanda are had me giggling.
in the circus series by metisket - certified classic. i love timcanpy pov and this whole thing is just so emblematic of my fond memories of old dgm fanworks. i love anything that highlights the way they're all just so immensely fucked up to the point that it's actually incredibly absurd and funny. i'm pretty sure metisket's LJ has more mini outtakes from this series but i'm too lazy to dig through the dgm tag right now so i'll just link it so you can do it yourself if you're interested.
lastly if you're looking for someone to share your recs with you're free to! i am on a personal level picky as hell and my taste in styles and approaches to fanwork was forged in the livejournal mines and has not evolved with the times LOL but i also don't judge <3

Whats your fav LMM novel? Please rank from the most you like to the least you like. Thank you 😊.cn.
Thank you for this question! First of all, I am very sorry it took me so long to answer, but I have to say it was a difficult choice for me (Sophie's choice, one might even say).
Before I start, I want to give a little disclaimer: there are some books I haven't read in ages. For example, I was the biggest fan of Anne series back in the days - I read Anne of Green Gables at the age of 8 and I remember loving it so much.
But then, I read other Montgomery's novels and loved them... even more. While Anne's books are still close to my heart, I haven't read them in years, while I still keep coming back to other books. That is something I should definitely change - if I reread Anne series (and Maud's other books) and my rating changes, I'll make a new list!
That being said, Anne of Green Gables is definitely the most iconic Montgomery's book - it is a beautiful, heart-warming tale of coming of age - and Anne herself is the most iconic female character Montgomery had ever created.
Ok, the disclaimer was very long, but I needed to make things clear, for Anne series is only listed as fourth - but not because I don't enjoy it, but because I need to reread it...
Oh, and another thing: I only included the novels, not short stories.
Emily of New Moon trilogy - my absolute favourite. I know many people have issues with these books and I understand this. Still, that's my number one. I must say I was not too satisfied with an ending of Emily Climbs (2nd book) and the last chapter of Emily's Quest (3rd) seems very rushed (although I like the way it ended... generally). All three have the first place ex aequo.
The Blue Castle - very close second. I love this book so much. In my opinion, Valarney is the best romance Maud had ever written. It is a lovely book - full of humour and fantastic characters; the one I keep coming back to each time I need a little cheering up. It never fails to do so. But oh, poor Cissy...
Rilla of Ingleside - it is probably the saddest book Montgomery ever wrote, but it is just so beautiful. Rilla is the heroine that goes through the biggest inner change... My favourite things about this book were: Rilla and Jims's relationship and Rilla's development. I wasn't into the romance there, tbh. Also... Walter... (tearing up).
Anne series - I will rank the books from my most to less favourite among the series: Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Island, Anne of Avonlea, Anne of Windy Poplars, Anne of Ingleside, Rainbow Valley, Anne's House of Dreams, The Blythes Are Quoted. That being said, I really liked all of them, but I still can't get over Joy (that's why AHoD is so low. I mostly like reading about Anne pre-motherhood, even though I also adore all her children... I know, I just contradicted myself...).
Story Girl and Golden Road - I adore stories about childhood friendships and this one doesn't fail! The only sad thing - Cecily's fate :(. But truth be told, I got the impression that the King children acted a bit young for their age... on the other hand, maybe that's the way things used to be in the past.
Jane of Lantern Hill - another great book! Jane is very different from other Montgomery's heroines - she's so practical! I adore her as a character.
Magic for Marigold - I remember loving this book, but... I haven't read it in ages. I need to change that.
Tangled Web - I have some issues with the book (the racism, marrying close relatives etc.). But on the whole, I enjoyed it. I liked some stories more, some less... and one can get lost among all these Darks and Penhallows (I always get their last names wrong, even though there are only two choices!).
Pat of Silver Bush and Mistress Pat - another series I haven't read in ages. But I wasn't too fond of these books as a child - I couldn't understand Pat too well... But I really liked Hilary. I think I should give the series another try someday... maybe I'll like them more now.
Kilmeny of The Orchard - the only Montgomery's book that I dislike... no sparkling humor. No lovable characters. Ideal Kilmeny... stuck up Eric... and the awful references towards Italians. No sir, thank you. Not me.
Ok, that's my list. I feel the need to say that I find all of Montgomery's books delightful. Even Kilmeny of The Orchard had some lovely descriptions of the nature...
I truly hope that I haven't offended anyone. I am really curious what other Montgomery's fans rating would be...
Again, thank you for this question!!!!

Dumb probably negative no context rambles under the cut
Last chance, don't ruin your mood and go back
OK you wanted it this way
1.- I like STW but I usually have to get up to do things while playing (yea sometimes in FN:BR I hide in bushes to go and do some other stuff. I've barely made any progress, the game is quite complicated to me because I don't play it often and I forget what was going on? And I don't know how to use most of the mechanics of the game(? Still, the humor is funny, the gameplay might feel repetitive from time to time but I like it, I really really like it.
I also would like to have more IRL friends who play STW (or FN in general), I bet that game mode is way funnier and rewarding in squad. But nobody plays it, and I think I have no friends who play FN? Just my older brother and he has his own duo so I'm not getting in between them (?) (and he doesn't like STW so he doesn't even have access to it). There's a dude at my workplace who plays FN but no thanks, I don't like him, he's stupid (he's the it guy who can't fix a damn thing. I hate that guy he's so stupid)
As always, I'm playing solo in this squad mode game called life (?
2.- I know I often say I'm doing it for me but, damn, I wish someone could like it the way I like it too. I'll see if it's worth the effort or if I should just finish the damn thing and save if for myself. I'm not hurt or anything alike, I was 1000% aware this was going to happen, and it's helping me improve. I think I just don't want to deal with that anymore. Sorry, I lose motivation quite often and easily
3.- I try to keep everything happy and positive in my FN blog but... I don't really like Hope. I mean she's cool and all that but I just don't like her e-girl thing going on. The only thing I like about her is the cat on her banner icon whatever the name of that thing is. Neither sunsp0t, actually y don't like a lot of things but I'll just save my awful FN opinions. I should've saved my headcanons too
4.- Surprise surprise (actually is no surprise) I'm losing followers. And I get it, I get you guys, I used to post funny things, funny drawings (or drawings in general) but now I just complain about everything. Sorry, I'm not in a good mood anymore.
I don't think people should keep following/stay suscribed to a channel, account, blog thing they dont like no more. I've seen artists (on Twitter of course) complaining about how people should not follow an account for X specific thing but I don't think that's how things work. Just like the things you like change, the things other like change too. They should NOT feel forced to like the things you like and see the things you want to share. But I guess you have to grow up to realize that. I personally don't feel offended when people stop following me, right now I'm offering nothing but negative text post, and that's OK. Curate the things you consume, make it a more pleasant experience, don't feel forced to follow someone you no longer like.
I personally follow people for a specific thing, and sometimes, like everyone, they change the things they make, but if I like their stuff I usually stick around because it's interesting! I just stop following if they change for worse (the same way I changed for worse). Still, not everyone thinks the same way I do.
5.- I still thinking I should just make another sideblog to dump all this dumb kind of posts but honestly I don't want to deal with it. Making an FN exclusive sideblog was already way too much, but I didn't want to mix all in here
6.- I guess that's what you get for interacting with people half your age.
7.- Shouldn't have joined, should've stayed away
8.- I wish we could talk, someday. I'd like to know you better. I know I don't exist for you but you mean so much for me (yea now I understand my taste for one-sided fictional relationships lol). I know, im stupid, I'm delusional, I'm, as always, daydreaming about things that will never ever happen and I will never have. I can't understand love, I can't wrap my head around the idea of being romantically involved with someone but that's OK, that kind of things are not meant for me
9.- I wish I could control whatevers going on in my mind. I wish it could slow the pace of my thoughts, I need some rest from the world but most important, I need a break from myself but I guess there's nothing I can do about it
10.- Also, Beatles song
11.- I fell asleep after posting this and I OBVIOUSLY had to edit it to add this because i DREAMED someone gave me some support words and it felt so nice and comforting jdjsjs I'm alone
12.- Morningssey song. Yes I like him too so sue me (?

Psycho Analysis: The Wall
Tumblr media
(WARNING! This analysis contains SPOILERS!)
Spidey Super Stories is what you get when you take Spider-Man from The Electric Company and give him a comic run of his own. It’s geared more towards kids, so there’s a lot wackier and out-there concepts on display, and is the originator of not only Spider-Woman (though not Jessica Drew), but also this:
Tumblr media
And also this:
Tumblr media
And, of course, the evildoer known as The Wall. Or more specifically, the Wicked Wall.
Now, here’s thing (and I ain’t talking about that other bricked-up superpowered Marvel character): The Wall is a villain in a Spidey series loaded with some of the wackiest and most bonkers one-shot villains ever put to page. Case in point: Thumper, the girl who dresses as Napoleon Bonaparte, wields a boxing glove, and is defeated by being gifted the pony she always wanted since she was a child, a villain who will definitely be getting one of these reviews someday soon. And then there’s the panels like the ones above, where we get the iconic Thanoscopter. How is The Wall supposed to compete with such iconic madness?
Motivation/Goals: My man Joshua here is, quite simply, a hater. He saw Spider-Man was having a day off, and decided, “Oh HELL no, if I gotta be a brick wall I’m making that his problem!”
Tumblr media
And he does! In an impressive twist of fate, The Wall manages to get Spidey kicked out of the Mets game the poor hero was trying to enjoy! Sure, he’s kicked out too and he doesn’t seem particularly happy, but a Pyrrhic victory is still a victory. Kind of.
Final Fate: In a fate even the Kingpin would agree is far too cruel, The Wall… is kicked out of the Mets game alongside Spider-Man. They’re last seen moping outside the stadium together.
Tumblr media
Best Scene: The guy’s on four fucking pages, let’s just say his entire existence is perfect. But if I’m singling out a tiny sequence, I think this one might be the funniest:
Tumblr media
Of course, there's also the sheer comedy of his backstory, where he was a simple boy building a wall when suddenly it fell, somehow turning him into a monster. Maybe the cement was radioactive? It defies all logic in the best way:
Tumblr media
Best Quote:
Tumblr media
Final Thoughts & Score: The Wall is a great example of the weird, off-the-wall (heh) creativity utilized in comics at the time. He really has it all: A ridiculously punny name that kind of had his fate sealed from birth (Joshua Waldemeyer), no real reason for villainy, an absurd and nonsensical accident that created him that defies any and all logic, a ridiculous yet endearing design, and an endless supply of corny one-liners. This is what goofy one-shot villains should aspire to be.
Of course, that doesn’t leave me with much to talk about in regards to him; there’s no deep complexities or tragic backstories here, just a simple case of a goofy gimmick villain being a lot of fun due to an absurd design and a simple scheme. Unlike the last villain I reviewed, I’d say the relatively simple and straighforward gimmick of being a fucking wall was used to great effect, giving plenty of goofy puns and gags as well as utilizing his bizarre ability to be a nuisance. Like yeah, you could probably swap out The Wall with someone like Rhino or Juggernaut and get the same basic effect, but would it be nearly as funny?
A 7/10 is a fair score for this guy. He’s just a perfectly fun one-shot who, despite only a brief time in the spotlight, isn’t such a terrible idea he couldn’t work if brought back in some regard. Hell, they almost brought him back for Across the Spider-Verse, with his absence being the only thing holding the movie back from true greatness.
Tumblr media
I think my only gripes with him are that he's only there for four pages, which while understandable is rather disappointing, but more importantly is that he's in a comic that seems filled to the brim with utter absurdity around every corner. After seeing the Thanoscopter, would you not be comfortably numb to a living mound of masonry? All in all, is he not simply another brick in the wall?
No you fucking goon, he IS The Wall itself. And nothing can take that away from him. If nothing else, I’m definitely going to have to look through more of these Spidey stories to see what other bonkers villains lie waiting for me.

JUST FOUND YOUR BLOG AND I LOVE YOUR ART!!!!
Your line art is so smooth and the colors too! How are u underrated
Thanks :]]
Actually I remember doing thick linearts before to make it look like y2k bubbly styled and I was thinking of going back again since I wanted to make logos or icons like this one:
Tumblr media
These ig were just a lil practice if someday I'll be making one (or more of these). Also this is just an example btw, these are artist-made game icons. Imo, if it were me to be commissioned to design one or if I was assigned by a game dev, then most likely its gonna look like something that y'all won't know who did that thing lol.
Besides, I'm pretty sure a lot of people were inspired by my artstyle. 😭 Also in case you guys don't know what these are, I'll show you guys mine. (NOTE: You can still check on archive, I don't mind though-)
Examples of my artworks with thick lineart:
Tumblr media
The first one was Hatsune Miku fanart
I kinda remember drawing this back in the day since 2023, the sketch version (on my other sketchpad) was discontinued. Supposed to finish it but, sadly I gave up because the hair was something that reminded me of an Inkling from Splatoon (rarely I noticed the first miku fanart also reminded me too lmao).
I wish I'd do this again hopefully if I could use my artstyle, then yeah. Watch here if you want to see the speedpaint :3 : https://youtu.be/sRE3-snDGkM?si=op3tISbGFTjLCcdB
Tumblr media
Next one is Bomb Rush Cyberfunk fanart
Okay LISTEN, I may not be good at anatomy but might as well tried especially RED's head. For the BG, I only duplicated the character + added a screenshot/fakescreenshot/whatever, to make it look related to both y2k & frutiger aero (same applies to Hatsune Miku).
Nothing to say much but I've been thinking of making more character concept arts in the future & maybe work on shoes since they look a bit too complicated much.
Overall, I'd say it isn't bad. I'll just leave as it is for now (until some BRC fan shows up and sees this).
Tumblr media
Last but not the least, my very first artist-made album cover
I remembered drawing this for future use if I ever find a music composer either if they can do DnB, game soundtrack or whatever but it slightly depends on them. Also shout out to Lxchee Music! They're the ones who compose music like these. They even commented on my speedpaint video!!! (after using their songs lol).
Such a shame that I am limited to drawing only however, I wish I also was a composer of this whooooooole album then everyone's gonna listen to my bangers. One time I used to make music in Beepbox.co (a website where you can compose there).
There are some music-composing softwares that most people use for their game making & also songs. I wish I'd even use FL studio or other music-composing. Reminds me, I also have one friend who makes music (unrelated to dnb or any genre) using accordian & any other instruments that he uses. I swear, he is so good in composing Nintendo Orchestra-music related I can tell.
Conclusion
No worries though, I didn't say I hate using thick lineart but its sometimes too much for the anatomy still and might not fit pretty well. I can still do another one hopefully just to focus on more y2k aesthetic. But if it were me to learn anatomy, might as well use thin lineart and just increase to make it look like there is perspective on it.
Anyways, ig this might be a long one but I do hope you understand what I mean-

currently in class, and I have a request to work on later, but I just wanted to share bsd music headcanons... you may notice my music taste is dominated by a certain William woodiam, it's okay guys don't mind that
If you haven't heard these songs listen to them right now they're so bsd coded, I might write fics based off of em someday..
Not nearly as many as I could, if someone requests it I can go back later and make a whole post with even more of em cuz omg
Dazai
Ofc the classic Skeleton Appreciation Day in Vestal, NY by Will Wood. I like this call this one the Dazai love ballad. "All love starts as a scheme", "Some of the best liars only want the truth", "If I come home baby will you show me your bones". Also, " A selfish book is always open" is SO Beast Dazai coded it's UNREAL.
Speaking of Beast Dazai, Yeah Yeah Yeah (V2) by Jack Conte. "I knew it all along", "I felt it in my heart, if theres even one to feel".
And for dark era/15 Era dazai, Haunt Me (x 3) by Teen Suicide is my go to. "I want a lo of friends and a lot of drugs", plus the speech at the end about self esteem guys it's such a vibe too it FEEEEEELS like dazai.
I can probably fit any Will Wood song to Dazai actually...
Chuuya
LEMONS by Brye and Cavetown is SOOOOO angsty one sided skk. Like it feels like chuuya ranting abt how horribly dazai treated him? Such a mood, he listens to it every day.
I also feel like chuuya would listen to jazzy phone? There was one I knew a while ago but I forgot the name but I swear guys it is so vibey.
Also it's so iconic, but those power boost songs. The ones you find in edit audio Playlists yk? The one in mind rn is Taking Over the World by Coyote Theory.
ALSO I can't remember the song, but it's by the Crane Sisters or something? All angsty feeling, and all like fire feeling. I think it's called Curses or smthn? Really good.
Poe
just one thought cuz it came on, but Bugbear by Chloe Moriondo. The music vibe feels a little too modern for him, he's definitely into classical music, but guys it is literally him simping for Ranpo I LOVE this song its cute asf<333 "I feels braindead next to you" ughhhh gay
Odasaku
Advice by Alex G. It feels so angsty and kinda like the vibes of when he dies? As well as Momento Mori by Will Wood just cuz of that same reason </3

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤️
Aww, I love this! Okay, thank you so much and thank you for the chance to do some navel gazing!
Also... my AO3 has 144 stories on it. When did that happen? For a question like this, I want to pick for quality of writing, but I'm finding myself going back mostly to the stories that either really stretched or defined me as a writer, or simply the ones that were a really memorable experience to write . . . which unfortunately means mostly my longer fics, as so many of the shorter ones were written in a single flurry that I barely remember after the fact! Even though there are some shorter fics that I think are better than the longer ones. So let's get started.
Finding a Voice - I mean, how can I not say this one? This fic, like a lot of my older work, has some passages and scenes that I think are so good I can't believe I wrote them, and some that make me cringe to look back on - but how can I not pick it, when it's the story that probably defines me most as a writer? It's the story that allowed me to stake out my own headcanons and gave rise to hundreds of thousands more in the same world. And, like all my LOTR stuff, I do want to return to it someday soon. <3
Ever Changing, Ever Climbing - still the longest thing I've ever written, and the thing I worked on for the longest time. I lived in the world of this story and these characters for almost a year, and probably came the closest I ever have to what non-fanfic authors experience when coming up with their own characters, because I got to make so much of it up! It similarly has bits that make me cringe, especially when I realize how much more deeply other people have thought about Mirkwood worldbuilding and how much lore I straight-up got wrong, but I think it also has some of my best prose and my best romance writing. And siblings. I got to write baby Legolas in this! And also I just love Laerwen so much and love that I got the chance to write her an origin story, so that it doesn't all exist only in the background of my head.
Only Through Surrender - come on, this is my current obsession; I was never not going to put it on the list! But in some ways, this is exactly the inverse of the previous story. I wrote this faster than I've ever written anything this long, and it's the most daring thing I've ever written in terms of plot. The romance is almost a subplot, which I don't know that I've ever done satisfactorily, and it's an AU, which is not something I'm great at sustaining, and even though I don't know that the writing style overall is my best work, I think that the structure and pacing of the story - and the things I did with characters - are pretty good, all things considered! The only non-LOTR fic on this list.
Velle - in terms of "fun to write," this story might be the very top of all of them. This was @deheerkonijn's and my early-covid project (we actually started it a couple months before, but I think working on it saved us in those early telework days of stress and angst); it's a form of storytelling neither of us had tried before, combining both of our skills, and it's probably the most rigorously edited and densely-packed thing I've ever written. We went over and over and over this story with a fine-toothed comb, making sure the writing and the art worked perfectly together, and we liked it so much we printed it as a physical book! *smooches my copy gently*
Having moved out of the most iconic ones, I wasn't sure what to pick for the last! This became a bit of a toss-up, but I wanted to have a shorter fic represented, so: the hunter's heart, the hunter's mouth. This is my only fic with a Richard Siken title, so I figured it was fitting given that he's everywhere right now. ;) Inspired by the title, this is one of my more deliberately poetic fics, and I had a lot of fun with the writing. It's also some of my more daringly explicit work! (still does not include any words for certain aspects of anatomy)
Thanks so much again for sending me this ask! So sorry for how much I ramble when talking about myself! ;) Off to go pass it on!

WELCOME TO THE DESOLATE SEKAI ...
Tumblr media
hey there, everyone ♪ welcome to a yet another prosekai edit blog!! there are a lot of them already, howeveeeer— my main priority for starting this blog is to have an archive for my own edits ★ i haven't done them in a long time and i wanted to start anew, so they might not be the best, but i'm doing it just for fun!! i don't have a main blog for the time being and i'm still figuring out tumblr again, but i hope we can get along well ww
if you like my edits, though, then you can look under the cut for more details about requesting and my dni criteria ★
any transparents that aren't the in-game transparents are gonna be by @/prsk2dmv-transparents and @/sekaitransparents!! will be crediting them whenever i use them, but if i ever forget then the credit is here ~
Tumblr media
WHAT CAN I DO
icons: only square ones for now. these can contain either card icons (icon that is just a close-up of the card, optionally with some touch-ups), general icons (icon of a character on a certain background, mostly of a monochrome color) and pride icons (icon of a character on a pride flag, although i want to try making icons with disability flags as well). i won't do gif icons, though, or at least not for now ):
twitter layouts: a set containing an icon (please specify which one from the icons above) and a twitter header; the types of headers are general headers (containing the requested character/pairing on a certain background; works with pride flags as well), picture headers (headers that are a picture fitting the icon) and mixed headers (made from three pictures — two fitting the icon and one containing the character/pairing)
tba...!
WHAT I MIGHT DO
moodboards: either open ones (where every picture is separated) or closed ones (where everything is in one picture). if you choose a closed one, i will as well do two versions; one with only pictures used in the moodboard and one with a requested character/pairing on top of it.
stimboards: nothing to say in this one, just that i might deny the request when i won't be able to find good gifs. you can send me gifs you want to see in the stimboard, though
wallpapers: either phone or pc ones, specified size would be appreciated. similiar to icons, these can contain either card wallpapers (preferably only to be requested for phone wallpapers), general wallpapers and pride wallpapers. i might experiment with some of them, however!
tumblr layouts: not too confident in making these, but i might as well try. works the same way as twitter layouts, but the only header type is gonna be a general header
reply icons: also not too confident with these, but work the same way as normal icons. they're just uhh shaped like reply icons you know.
tba...!
i'm ok with doing any pairing that is not proship or toyasaki/toyakasa! i'll also think about adding more sources someday, but for now i just want to stick to prosekai ww
Tumblr media
BEFORE YOU REQUEST
— i prefer simple edits over the overly aesthetic ones!
— please tell me directly if i do something wrong, eg. use a wrong flag! i can't correct myself if i don't know what i did wrong
— please, please use tonetags when needed! i'm autistic and i can't read the tone well, so i'd hate to get a request or an ask wrong because of it!
— i have full rights to deny a request! i won't do it much and i'll always state a reason to why i'm denying it, but i want you to be aware of this possibility
— i'll try my best to get the requests done quick, but i'm still a high schooler and i have my own personal life!
— feel free to ask about anything!
— the cards from revival my dream and island panic sets won't be edited, and it also goes to any possible racist sets in the future!
— dni if you fit the basic criteria, but also if you're a fetishist, colopale defender, sexualize minors, don't see mizuki as a canon transfem and/or use he/him on them and ship toyasaki/toyakasa or other canon found families!
— i'll add the alt text for all images in the future, but i have to learn how to properly write it first!

@ the post I just rbed, I still feel like my icon doesn't feel much like me LMFAO. I wish I was better at drawing icons I'd love to draw myself an icon. It's just that my art doesn't tend to look good in icons the times that I've tried 😭. Which I guess makes sense as faces and hair have been my weak points, I'm much better at bodies and clothes and such. Maybe someday. Might also just decide to use (credited) fanart one day HJSDGHKJDGS

RULES/GENERAL
Howdy! I’m the mun and you guys can call me Sharae or simply Mun if you’re more comfortable with that! I use she/her pronouns and my blog and I are 100% LGBTQIA+ friendly for any and everyone! I’m 21 years old and I’ve been roleplaying for about 5 (five) years now! I am very shy and a very nervous person. I have gotten better at being more active and talking in DMs, sending asks for fun ect. But somedays I’m just too anxious to be active. This is a me problem not anyone else’s… so please don’t think I am ignoring you or anything! Now let’s get to the rules! I don’t have many rules but I do have some “general knowledge” you need to know!
0. I will not stand for racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, bigotry and more around this. You will be blocked for good.
1. Blog is labeled LOW activity so please except there to be little activity. This means replies won’t be instant and can take a few days to a week. I suffer from dyslexia and CTS syndrome. Due to being dyslexic I might make writing errors. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if what I wrote doesn’t make sense!! I won’t be offended!
2. I don’t use icons but you are free to do so!! I tend to use dividers between long paragraphs!
3. Please specify muse! If you don’t specify I will either not answer it OR pick randomly and you get what you get I’m afraid!
4. No Godmodding my muse's choices or actions! I will most likely ignore you if you do it a few times. I understand it may happen sometimes depending on the your muse's powers or during starters but ya get the drift!
5. I will not interact with pedos and others around this sicking spectrum. You will be blocked!More will be added when I can think.
6.I long like any length replies (except one liners)! You don’t have to match me because I know I get carried away sometimes!! As long as there is something to work on I don’t mind!! But I will admit, longer threads will take me a bit Ionger to reply back to as I’m a perfectionist when it comes to writing (and I suffer from dyslexia/CTS) shorter threads will be answered much quicker tho!
6. If able, please tag your roleplay partners url in the tags. This way if needed I can easily blacklist that tag for my comfort. My rp partners are able to roleplay with whomever they want! I don’t care who you rp with as long are they aren’t toxic or if they have anything to do in my rule 0. Iam going to be vague about this.
I was being bullied/harassed in a certain fandom for a long time (if you know you know) so I’m going to be selective as heck. I’ve also just met a few others in this specific fandom that have made me feel super uncomfortable and just made me feel like shit for DAYS. I will not be stating the peoples urls and even the fandom. But this is why I’m begging please… tag their url in the tags so if you rp with them I can blacklist. Blocking only does so much and even though they are blocked; they still come up by blacklist I won’t see them.
7. Due to be selective as heck, I’m not going follow for follow. I will only follow if I want to interact/engage with you! So If I do follow you, please feel free to reach out and talk!! I’m extremely nervous and anxious person so it will take me a minute to reach out but I promise I will! I won’t follow personal blogs (unless it’s a rp hub) and I might not follow everyone. If I don’t follow back in a week, I am probably not interested and will soft block you so you won’t be following me anymore. I’m so sorry if this comes out harsh I’m just trying to protect myself. I don’t want to be hurt anymore.
8. Over the years I've become "block happy". I will block anyone who makes me uncomfortable, toxic, if you're a rude anon or just a rude person in general. I've come to realize the block button isn't a bad thing and I have to keep my space as happy and peaceful as possible if I wish to remain on tumblr.

Hi! I'm Jade and this is my pregnancy kink blog. Below's a list of some of the things I am and aren't into, an about me, and some basic guidelines I'd like people who follow/interact with this blog to know.
Tumblr media
This is my kink blog, where I mostly just reblog content I like for myself, but if you like it, you're welcome to stay, as long as you understand a few things so this space stays as comfortable for me as possible. And hey, maybe someday I'll post a drawing or two (My icon and header were both made by me), but for now it's mostly just reblogs lol.
Hey! You can call me Jade, my pronouns are she/her and I'm mostly into girls and fem-presenting people. I wanted to make a separate pinned post, but it's still very important to me that people know that this very much still applies.
MINORS ABSOLUTELY DNI. This is a kink blog. Any minors that follow or interact with my blog will be blocked.
I absolutely will not tolerate any sort of discriminatory attitude towards anyone. racist, sexist, ableist, homophobic, transphobic, etc. asks, messages, comments will be deleted and blocked.
I'll do my best to answer asks, so feel free to send them about generally anything, not only kink stuff. (though I don't mind asks about kink stuff at all either lol)
That being said, I most likely won't be answering any DMs for now, though this might change in the future. Just keep in mind that if you DM me I probably won't respond.
I don't do RP. Again, this might change in the future, but for now this isn't something I'm interested in.
As I'm very gay, most of the things I'll post/reblog will very likely be about girls and fem-presenting people. I don't mind people who are into other genders interacting, but keep in mind that you probably won't find much of anything else here lol.
I'll probably update this post as time goes on to add or change anything if it comes up.
That's all I can think of for now. Thanks for reading and enjoy your stay 🌸

Oohh wow, so many great sounding WIPs there!! I'm intrigued by Antiquing, is there anything more you might want to tell us about that one? 👀 Hope you're having a wonderful day! <3
Hi hi! It is a dark and thunderstormy day over here, which I think means I get to ignore all my work notifications and just play on tumblr, right?
I would be delighted to share more about Antiquing, in which Cap Steve and Winter Solder Bucky haven't met before, but still manage to make everyone around them (Clint) very uncomfortable by being aggressively into each other at first sight. It started out as a some short and sweet Stucky Week fun, but I ran out of energy to get it over the finish line. Maybe someday, though?
Here's a way-too-long snippet for you because better here than languishing away on my drive!
“Hey, is it still considered an antique if the buyer is also…well, you know,” Clint says, gesturing broadly at Steve. He’s all of 5’4” now—er, again—but he still manages to level Clint with a disappointed look that makes him want to volunteer at a soup kitchen, or help the nearest little old lady cross the street, or recite the Pledge of Allegiance. “Never mind,” Clint says instead.  Steve is still frowning at him, but as they’re crossing Nostrand and Dekalb he huffs and grumbles, “Vintage.” “What?” “The cabinet is vintage because it’s not 100 years old. And neither am I, by the way. Now hurry up, we’re late,” he says, hoofing it through Bed-Stuy like he forgot Clint does not, in fact, have a super-serumed power walk and that it’s, like, a million and one degrees out. “Look it’s not my fault they let you use the internet—" Clint grumbles. “Let me?” “—without explaining that responding to random Craiglist ads is a great way to meet crazed super fans or get kidnapped by Hydra.” “First of all, the Internet should be a public utility,” Steve says for the millionth time since he woke up in the 21st century, “and second, I’m sure I can handle myself against some nice old guy named Bucky without a security detail.” Clint heaves a sigh, wipes sweat from his brow, and jogs to catch up. He’s got the worst luck. It’s not like his ideal Saturday morning includes pissing off a national icon. (You misplace one unagi roll in the vents above Coulson’s office…) But at least he’s in good company—Steve scowls at all the Avengers. Ten blocks later Steve stops in front of a brownstone, taps away at his phone, and says, “This is it. I let him know we’re here.” “Great. Let’s get this chest and get outta here.” “It’s a cabinet not a—" The door to the basement-level apartment opens and out comes a guy built like Mac Truck, if a Mac Truck was absurdly handsome in a terrifying sort of way. Despite the heat, he’s wearing black leather gloves and a long-sleeve red henley unbuttoned all the way down to his— “Chest,” Steve finishes, sounding winded.
Thanks for asking, lovely, hope this week is treating you well, too! 💙
