Also our chaotic siblings Victoria and Charles - Lab partners AU 👀
I really love Victoria and Charles, I think they are my favourites from the ballet au. So this doesn’t made them justice, I’m sorry for it. Also, I don’t know anything about reactions, chemistry and so (I always failed that subject because I don’t like it), so... Sorry if I made any mistake :3 Hope you like it :3
“You're doing it wrong. Again!”
“Shut up! Don't you have anything better to do than bother me?”
“I'm your lab partner.”
“No, you are the idiot of my little brother who has been left without a lab partner, making the teacher punish me with teaming up with you,” Victoria replied, finishing her hair. She had braided her hair so that it wouldn’t spread over her face. Her brother, of course, didn't understand.
Charles snorted in annoyance and took the flask from her, looking at the different powdered compounds they had to put in and the massive amount of sodium that his idiot sister had put into it.
“It's going to explode.”
“What?! Of course not! I've done this thousands of times with Akiko, nothing will happen.”
Charles's eyes looked at his sister. Akiko was their best friend and Charles's crush for as long as he could remember (that is, for twelve years), but she was also the smartest of the three. At least in academic matters. She was great at chemistry and so and every experiment they did used to be with her. Well, Victoria did them with her, because Charles was placed with Kuniaki and honestly, he always did most of the work.
But, neither Kuniaki nor Akiko were there to help them. The first was in a competition and the second was ill. So both brothers had to work together… If they didn't kill each other before.
Victoria picked up the scale and put the watch glass on it before turning it on.
“Pass me the potassium.”
“It doesn't put any potassium in the chemical reaction.”
“Charles. Pass. Me. The. Potassium. NOW.”
“I’M NOT GOING TO PASS ANYTHING TO YOU!”
“YOU ATOBES! CAN YOU REMAIN SILENT ?! THIS IS A CLASS, NOT THE PLAYGROUND!” The teacher yelled at both of them, causing them both to shut up at the same time.
From time to time they exchanged glances to see who could be more angry, but Victoria always ended up winning. Always. Charles didn't know how she did it. So she added potassium. Twenty milligrams of potassium mixed with whatever it was that she would have added of sodium. Afterwards, she added some blue liquid coloring to make it look the same as the teacher's and put it to heat with a liquid solution that Charles wasn’t familiar with.
“See how it's not going to explode?” Victoria's tingly, knowing tone almost made her being nearly choked her. Almost.
“Whatever,” Charles replied angrily.
“Okay, give me 0.5 mg of boron,” she replied without looking at him, putting on her goggles better.
Charles handed her the required amount of boron and turned his head. Of course, that day could only go from bad to worse. He never thought he could miss Kuniaki.
“Pass me the flask with the clear liquid.”
But, without any of them realizing it, Charles gave her the flask that had water in it instead of the other solution, and when Victoria poured it in, it began to grow thanks to the heat and contact with the previous solution dangerously.
“What...?”
“Get down! This is going to explode!” Charles yelled, pulling his sister under the table.
And indeed, that solution exploded in the middle of the class, causing the screams and panic of his classmates and teacher. The responsible adult walked over to them, turned off the lighter, and glared at them.
“You have spilled water, right?” She asked with a frown before both boys pointed at each other. “You two go to the study room right now. You are punished!”
As Victoria and Charles packed up their things and left class, the boy turned to her sister.
“Now what?” She was upset, and he loved it because it made her already perfect face transform into the one of a harpy.
“I told you,” Charles replied with a smile, even though he knew they were going to receive a monumental punishment.

new arrivals july 10th, 2017
stormy records13306 michigan avedearborn, mi 48126 313-581-9322 check our facebook page for a CAR SEAT HEADREST ticket giveaway!!!! details posted this afternoon!!! glenn jones plays this week on thursday night at trinosophes. also - this week is the first week of the east dearborn musical event - tunes at noon. watch for a seperate email with info on that!! items in stock today - july 10th 2017 RADIOHEAD OKAYNOTOKAY COMPUTER double cd $15.99 ATOBE, SHINICHI  $29.99From The Heart, It's A Start, A Work Of Art 2LPFrom The Heart, It's A Start, A Work Of Art has its origins in early 2000, before Chain Reaction released the legendary Ship-Scope 12" (later released by Demdike Stare in 2015, DDS 014EP). Three of the tracks here are taken from an acetate cut at Dubplates & Mastering at that time, but which wouldn't see the light of day until now, including another batch of tracks taken from original masters. Only five copies of that acetate were ever made, so this is the first time any of these tracks are available for public consumption, and they rank among the finest and most distinctive in either the Chain Reaction or Shinichi Atobe's vaults. The material is effectively some of the Japanese producer's earliest work, showcasing the sort of tender, feminine pressure that would bubble up on the Ship-Scope EP and later be revealed in his new productions, Butterfly Effect (DDS 010CD) and World yet, for many reasons, they would lay sunk in his archive for the next 17 years. The tracks taken from that acetate are labeled "First Plate 1-3" and really are quite remarkable, having taken on so much character and added weight over the years that the incidental crackle of surface noise imbues proceedings with an added dimension that's hard to fathom. It basically sounds like a lost transmission making its way from Paul-Lincke-Ufer at the turn of the millennium to a new, completely changed world all these years later. The patina of crackle lends a mist-on-bare skin feeling akin to summer garden parties at Berghain in the stepping "First Plate 1", and gives a foggier sort of depth perception to the hydraulic, Maurizian heft of "First Plate 2", but it's the submerged euphoria of "First Plate 3" that hits the hardest; a heady, bittersweet reminder of days gone by. The other four tracks are crisply transferred from master tapes, relinquishing a sublime, impossible to categorize house variant that recalls everything from DJ Sprinkles to Ron Trent, yet with that weird, timeless production tick that by now has become something of a signature for this most distinctive and hard to categorize producer. Buoyant dub house and techno with lush, gaseous synths and keys. Remastered by Matt Colton from original tapes and worn actetates -- grit included; Limited copies. MOTORPSYCHOBegynnelser 2x10"+CD+DVD  $57.99This music was written for a project Motorpsycho was invited to be a part of by Trøndelag Teater in 2015. It eventually ended up as the play Begynnelser ("Beginnings"); directed, designed and dramatized by the independent theatre group De Utvalgte based on a new text written by Norwegian author Carl Frode Tiller. It was produced and performed at Trøndelag Teater in Trondheim with a cast drawn mainly from their ensemble. Motorpsycho played live at every performance with a line-up that included "utility psychos" Pål Brekkås or Tos Nieuwenhuizen. The play ran for six weeks in September and October of 2016. Not all of this music was eventually used in the play. The band also wrote a lot more during preparations and rehearsals. It was a long process and most of the music was tweaked in a big way to fit the flow and feel of the play. It was also played live every night, so what you would have heard during the performances would in most instances have sounded very different from this album. But these initial recordings have a certain unity of intent, as well as a sound and a definitive vibe to them that the band feels perhaps represents their input into the project the best. It is what they feel works best as a pure listening experience. The music is not sequenced in the order it was used in the play, and a lot of the music that eventually was played in the performances is missing from this album, so this is perhaps best described as "a version of what it might have been", more than a document of what the soundtrack eventually ended up becoming. One presumes this also probably would explain the title of the album. The titles of the various tracks reflect the band's process. The song names are in many cases inner-band shorthand for associations they gave the composers as they were written, and all of them are additionally graced with a place name taken from the area of Norway that both Hans Magnus Ryan and Bent Sæther of Motorpsycho grew up, and where the play is set. The included DVD contains a documentary and a complete two hour filmed performance of the play -- with English subtitles; DVD is PAL format, region free. So all-in-all, you get a lot of new, original Motorpsycho music. DUVELLE AND HISHAM MAYET, CHARLES  The Photographs of Charles Duvelle: Disques Ocora and Collection Prophet 2CD/BOOK  $68.99Disques Ocora, a French label dedicated to capturing and publishing the sounds of folkloric culture from around the world, is held in the highest possible regard in the realms of professional and amateur ethnomusicology. Instigated in 1958 by Pierre Schaeffer, the founder of musique concrète, Disques Ocora's sterling reputation is largely built on composer and musicologist Charles Duvelle's pioneering field recordings, as well as his now-iconic photographs and graphic design. Charles Duvelle's work is indisputably one of the most important contributions to the human understanding of the rich biodiversity of our planet's music and language. In 1977, his field recordings from Benin were selected by Carl Sagan for inclusion on the Voyager Golden Records, which were carried into outer space by the Voyager spacecraft to stand as an example of humanity's highest musical expressions for the universe's unknown listeners. Sublime Frequencies' most ambitious project to date, this 296-page fine-art photography book comprises an exhaustive collection of Charles Duvelle's field photography from 1959 to 1978 (188 black-and-white and 58 color photographs), demonstrating that this master musicologist had an equally unerring eye for photography; Includes a photo index listing the details of each photograph. It also contains an exhaustive interview with Charles Duvelle by Hisham Mayet, detailing the history of the label and offering Duvelle's unique insights into the discipline of field recording (French and English facing text). The package includes two full-length CDs of archival recordings (some of which have never been published) selected, compiled, and fully annotated by Duvelle himself. Most of the tracks on CD one (Africa) are complete versions of truncated tracks from OOP Ocora LPs. CD two, which includes performances by Sohan Lal, Kheo Oudon, and Madurai Ramaswami Gautam, is focused on material from Asia (music from India and Laos), with two long tracks that have never been released (a third track is a complete unedited version). The material focuses on the five regions surveyed during his time with Ocora: West Africa, Central Africa, Indian Ocean, Pacific Islands, and SouthEast Asia. It includes "Disques Ocora / Charles Duvelle Discography, 1959-1974", a complete overview illustrated with 94 full-color album thumbnails, "The Prophet Collection, 1999-2004" a discography of Duvelle's post-Ocora label illustrated with 41 full-color album thumbnails, "Eastern Music in Black Africa", a 17-page report prepared by Charles Duvelle at the request of UNESCO (February 1970), and a review of the Ocora catalogues (1964-1973). In a tribute to Disques Ocora's exquisite design sensibility, the book is printed on 170 gsm Lumisilk matte art paper and bound in grey buckram with gold foil stamping on the cover and spine. The front cover includes a tipped-on glossy photograph by Charles Duvelle. Hardcover book; 10"x10"; 296 pages; 4.5 lbs. Produced and edited by Hisham Mayet. POLICE DES MOEURS: Dedales LP  $22.99Montr233;al synth pop band Police Des Moeurs are one of the finest and rawest bands in the minimal synth/wave and cold wave scene. D233;dales, their third full-length album, keeps the pure energy of their previous efforts while leaving greater room for atmospheric and textural considerations. D233;dales leads you into the passage zone between civilization and wilderness, a mysterious place where truth, lies, light, and darkness collide. For fans of New Order, Martin Dupont, Rational Youth, Xeno & Oaklander. Mastering by Rude 66; Graphic design by Alessandro Adriani. Edition of 500. NACHT'RAUM/BANDE BERNE CREMATOIRE: Expanded 1982-1984 LP $22.99Mannequin Records present an LP compilation of Michael Antener's (Swamp Terrorist) early '80s minimal synth/industrial projects Nacht'Raum (with Michael St228;mpfli) and his solo project Bande Berne Crematoire. Heavily influenced by the works of SPK and Nocturnal Emissions, Michael Antener made his first recordings in the basement of his parents' house in a small village nearby Bern, Utzensdorf. He started BBC in 1980, a hybrid of Neue Deutsch Welle and noise/experimental, making a household name in the international home recording scene of the time and participating to many tape compilations. Teaming up with Michael St228;mpfli as Nacht'Raum, he self-released the untitled mini-LP in 1983. Coming out from the same town of Grauzone, the duo moved into the darkest minimal electronic sounds, choosing German as main language for the lyrics and a Roland TR-808 as main drum machine, bringing the sound to a proto-electro dimension. Nacth'Raum is a real gem in '80s Swiss underground electronic music, together with Mittageisen, Grauzone, LiLiPut, and The Vyllies. Michael, by the way, later teamed up with Ane Hebeisen. They went by the name of Swamp Terrorists, releasing seven albums and touring throughout the world until the end of the '90s. At the end of the '90s, he sold all of his instruments and became an independent graphic artist. Mastered by Rude 666. Includes two inserts; Edition of 500. DAMIEN DUBROVNIKGreat Many Arrows  LP  $21.99Great Many Arrows is the sixth studio album from Damien Dubrovnik, the Danish duo of Loke Rahbek and Christian Stadsgaard. It is also the 200th release on their Posh Isolation label, marking eight years for both the label and project. The label's inception came with Damien Dubrovnik's debut album, and since then the two have been inseparable. Without Damien Dubrovnik there would most likely have been no Posh Isolation, and vice versa. Great Many Arrows is undoubtedly a high point in the varied discographies of both Rahbek and Stadsgaard. It is the most realized Damien Dubrovnik recording to date, and a standout in Posh Isolation's troves. As a record, Great Many Arrows manages to translate the intensity of the duo's often unrestrained live shows in to carefully crafted studio productions. Unlike the pair's earlier and largely electronic recordings, the compositions on Great Many Arrows set organs, cellos, violas, wind, and other acoustic instruments against the backdrop of an electronic landscape. The new toolset is as apparent on the surface as it is in the enclosed detail, taking the project further from its noise roots than it has ever been. This is not to say that Rahbek and Stadsgaard have traded ferocity for formal constraint. It is rather the opposite. While Great Many Arrows is certainly the pair's most "musical" work to date, its veneer of accessibility might also make it their most terrifying. The strength of the recording lies in the interaction between the melodic, acoustic instrumentation and the bulldozing electronics. Moments of beauty and light are transfigured into utter chaos and rage, the mesmerizing change an expression of the equal and opposite form's natural sway as it beckons and slips between its own passing. Great Many Arrows takes its name from a historic archery competition in Kyoto, Japan, in which archers would shoot as many arrows as possible for a 24-hour period. On April 26, 1686, Wasa Daihachiro from Kishū successfully shot 8,133 out of 13,053 arrows, averaging 544 arrows an hour, or nine arrows a minute, becoming the record holder.

Look... I have a lot to ask so here I go. Sorry for fulfilling your inbox~ First of all... I want to know the 🌈 of the babies of Ballet (Akiko, Kuniaki, Victoria, Charles and Kimi and... Kuniaki's little brother of whom I don't remember his name) and what headcanons do you have for each one at the moment of being in a relationship :3
Finally a question I know how to answer beforehand except for Kimi and Kuninaga! I’ll place everything under a cut, because this is a LONG POST.
There are more headcanons for Kuniaki and Victoria than for the rest because, for me, they’re the most relationship oriented and experienced of them.
I want to know your headcanons too, so don’t be surprised when I spam your ask box with rainbows, like, right now.
~ OC development asks ~
🌈  what is your characters sexuality?
Akiko – Asexual
Let's be honest here; she doesn’t know how to be in a relationship.
Even if she’s in a relationship, ballet is her priority. If you’re not a dancer or part of the ballet world, your relationship is doomed.
Her relationship model is her parents’ relationship, which always was pretty centered around ballet.
Sometimes she misses your dates because she’s fallen asleep. She’s always exhausted after training and rehearsals.
If she shares deep thoughts with you, it means that you have her trust. That’s one big step.
Kuniaki – Bisexual, but prefers women.
Always down for an adventure! He‘ll suggest going out somewhere out of the blue, and he’ll get you lost in the middle of nowhere. He never knew where somewhere was from the beginning.
He’ll take to latin dance bars and clubs, and he will be pleased to teach you if you don’t know how to dance. Beware, he’s highly touchy!
He’s still the same wild, goofy and flirty Kuniaki as always, but when you’re in a relationship with him, you get to know a side to him that you never expected he would have.
If he sees you feeling down, silent or pensive, his alarm goes off. He tries to stay cool, but he becomes overprotective, anxious, and a bit controlling. He needs to know what’s happening to you.
His first relationship still haunts him.
Victoria – Bisexual
If you’re dating Victoria, remember to feed her ego daily. She knows she’s smart and gorgeous, but she wants to hear it from you.
But don’t worry! It’s not one-sided. She will praise you too all the time; after all, you’re the one she has chosen to be with.
Victoria is a stylish and shopaholic queen, even if your date has nothing to do with shopping, you’ll end up shopping.
She will sneak into the changing room if she can.
Lots of PDA. If you’re a fellow dancer, expect quick make-out sessions between rehearsals too.
She’ll leave hickeys and crimson kiss marks on you. Everywhere. Everyday.
Charles – Heterosexual
He has never questioned his sexuality; he was too busy having a crush on Akiko to do it.
He plans everything in advance, and then his plans never come out as expected, which makes him frustrated (sounds familiar?)
His parents' opinion about you is very important to him, but if he’s serious about your relationship, he’ll defy them if it’s necessary.
Always remembers special dates and has something prepared for you.
Kimi – Queer
I might see Kimi as non-binary, but don’t ask me about pronouns; I don’t know yet (but probably won’t be the usual ones). Kimi is your territory, so you tell me.
Always takes the lead in the relationship.
Every time you two go out, you end up in the most punk/alternative/strange places of the city, and to your surprise, Kimi is quite famous around there.
Will enjoy it double if you’re new to her world.
Kuninaga – ?? Probably hetero?
He would prefer to date someone who has nothing to do with ballet.
Stoic on the outside, sweet on the inside.
He’ll do little things for you without you noticing it.
Holds the door for you; places your shoes properly, so you don’t lose time getting in them; casually lets you take the window seat in the train…
Not a hc, but I have to draw him one of these days.

5.E. Akiko~ Our other baby ballerina
Tumblr media
I’ll be answering these two at the same time since I came up with a scene where both are reacting to something the last member of the group is doing (who neither of them can stand)
Who might they be and what might be they doing? *chanchanchan*

First Akiko! She’s SanaYuki’s only daughter, and just like her parents, she can only focus on one thing: get to the top of the world of ballet. You must always give your 120% to earn her respect.

He knows what Häschen means and he doesn’t like it~
Keigo Charles is Victoria’s twin brother. He looks like a carbon copy of his father… Well, that’s what he aims to be. As you can see in the (old) drawing under the cut, he’s actually blond with curly hair, just like his mother. And the mole? He’s being painting it in the wrong side since ever.
When he accepts he’s not his father, he stops dying and straightening his hair and prefers to go by Charles instead of Keigo.
