#BUT THANK YOU FAM AAA <3

[runawaymun]

Hi so I just binged your fics and adore them, I love “kids get sane adults and overcome trauma and feel safe” fics

And I was wondering if it was inspired by any other fics you could recommend? Especially Tolkien

aaa I'm so glad you like them! thank you!

The adoptive family trope is a trope that is incredibly near and dear to my heart and weirdly underexplored in the LOTR fandom tbqh. You'd think there would be more of it. I get this question a lot and unfortunately I must repeat that my toxic trait is that I am incredibly picky when it comes to the fics I read, and that And the Stars Shine the Same was actually started in a blind rage after scouring the internet for anything like it, and finding that most of them over-simplified the healing process or grossly mischaracterized Elrond OR turned out to be romantic in the end (but like not in a good way). So unfortunately I have very few fics I can recommend.

In terms of well-written fic that you might like if you like my work, as always, I recommend pretty much anything @jaz-the-bard has written when it comes to Elrond & kidnap fam adjacent material (and just...good fic...in general...hngg). @potatoobsessed999 (potatoesanddreams on AO3) has some really lovely genfic, and I literally cannot recommend @idrilsscribe's Under Strange Stars series enough. The Ever-Fixed Star series is an incredible set of Elrond-adjacent (but mostly Feanorian-centric) fics by @eirianerisdar that deal with themes of forgiveness, family, redemption, and healing and they remain just about some of my favorite fics of all time <3 I also will continue to endlessly rec @thatfeanorian's All the Ways to Love which is not gen, but does include just really excellent Russingon slowburn trauma recovery re: Feanor is The Worst Dad Ever and Maedhros' self-esteem is a dumpster fire, and Fingon is Best Boy (of course!).

For other fandoms I recently blitzed through I've Been Holding Back Tears (While You're Throwing Back Beers) by im_your_mom_now which is just unabashed Peter Parker AU whump with Tony being a very worried and concerned adult (trying to be a worried and concerned adoptive dad but of course it's Tony and he's emotionally constipated so he's not going to outright admit that he feels like Peter is his son which is just CHEFS KISS) It's actually incredibly well written -- like I don't normally go for Marvel anything but I just couldn't resist. It hit all my sweet spots for me and I really am a softie for Dad!Tony with Peter. <3 It's incredibly anti aunt-May though, fair warning.

Yeah that's mostly what I have for you! If any of my followers wants to chime in -- as always drop your recs on this post for anon :)

[maccreadysbaby]

hiii (≧▽≦)/, sorry for bothering you i just aaa, im normally a silent reader type (bc talking to ppl makes me anxious) but smth bout that last chapter got me like akjsdhfakjsflh (im def gonna like regret this later when im overthinking b4 bed lmao)

Σ(°ロ°)I was NOT expecting that to happen at all like the plot twist ajsdfhasljkfa, i was so ready to cry my heart out for that angst T^T </3 (i'm srry but i love angst sm, like. it just hits different ya know?) and omg bentley's call for help,,, when jason's life was in the hands of the joker ajsdfhkjasdhfka

ඞ amongus askjdfhasjf im so srry, the game's ruined the word imposter for me lol u got me imagining scenarios n shii bro (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄) bro, jason being the first one to find bentley and trying to save bentley bc no one saved him</3 and he's trying and trying to put pressure on bentley's wounds but blood is still like pouring out, bentley slowly losing conciousness. jason telling bentley to focus on him bc he's not going to die today and he's trying to keep bentley awake (╥﹏╥) telling bentley that help is coming soon, that he's going to be okay, and maybe having a conversation to try and keep bentley awake

brooo i could see like that one meme when batman finds them bentley: was i a good son? bruce: no. bruce: you were the best :,)

and like bentley dying in his arms w a smile on his face because's he's finally found his found family and has people that love him for once in his life bruce losing another son and him feeling like a failure of a father for not protecting bentley :< but i could also see him having like a dilemma w like bentley breaking his one rule: no killing even though that's what saved everyone in the end and like the loss of another son and he doesn't know what to feel (b isn't v good w dealing w his emotions)

aaa and after bentley's death, dick hides his emotions behind a mask, trying to cheer up everyone one (っ ᵔ◡ᵔ)っ and like making the atmosphere less sadge :( bc he feels like that's what bentley would have wanted(?) bc he's always looking out for the fam and trying to make things better? srry i suck at explaing aaa

then damien, oh damien, just right after they fixed things between them :( i feel like his griefing process = anger. he's just a little bottle of anger that's filled to the very top and any little thing sets him off. he's angry at himself, he's angry at black and white hair mans, he's angry at like,,, everything ヽ( `д´*)ノ

:( timmy going through like shock, denial(?maybe), anger, depression and goes into a state where he's neglecting his health because he's so focused on avenging bentley's death by trying to find everyone responsible and putting them behind bars

srry for bothering u. gosh, i just. i love ur writing sm, the way u write,,, like it's so, i can practically see the scenes happening in my mind. i reread both books twice while waiting for chap 43 to drop lol

(ﾉ>ω<)ﾉ :｡･::･ﾟ’★,｡･::･ﾟ’☆I hope u have a great day/night! and that both sides of ur pillow r cold, ur charger to work at every single angle, and never ever stub your toe again<3 ( ´ ∀ `)ノ～ ♡ [hope this didn't sound/look too cringe. i luv emoticons lol >:3]

omg this made me so happy🥹🥹🥹🥹 I can’t even. I love how you talked about the family after Bentley’s death💔

thank you so much for your love and support it means the absolute world, also don’t be afraid to talk to me haha! I’m about as scary as a marshmallow lmao

#crying my eyes out over here #thanks for that anon #also I love you

[fierceferrets]

Happy December, Ferret Fam, this update is gonna be quick so lets jump into it! Ive learned a lot fro making these roadmaps; I am still overdoing it! And that's okay because I am constantly learning and coming down into a better workload for me. I'm gonna figure it out, I promise!

For now though, to wrap it up; we didn't get much done between school and life drama, but we did work on Beelzebuds next strip and we wrapped up some 'thangs' which is really really good. Leia has even started writing again which is promising for next year. While I plan on taking the last week of December to relax, I do plan on at least finishing BB strip 064 and starting strip 065. Patreon Reward catchup I expect to stretch into 2024 but at the very least I'll be planning that out/starting it too.

DungeonMinis 2024: I know everyone is very excited to learn about whats going on with DungeonMinis. What I can tell you is, right now Leia and I are looking to come back August 2024. That will mark the 2nd year it will have been on hiatus, which seems like a perfect comeback, and gives us almost a whole year to prepare. Work for it most likely won't begin until Summer, but subscribers will be getting the play-by-play updates as we make them until that sweet August date.

Youtube 2024: The youtube will also be returning in 2024. As mentioned on stream, we are moving away from recording AAA games (excluding Dark Picture & Supermassive Games) this should make updating much easier, and so the last AAA title you'll see us record for now will be our Dead Space Remake playthrough we completed over the summer that I have ran into delay after delay of editing.

Roadmap Changes: I like making these roadmaps, so I am going to continue doing them, but I think I'm going to update the format from a 3-month update span to a seasonal update span. It will allow me to be more open about my schedule and I think, in the long run, more consistent with actually getting work done as expected so I stop having to write up so many delays.

And that's all for now

Thanks for checking in on your favorite ferrets <3 your continue support means the world to us.

As always, if you're looking for consistent updates or info from us about our work, discord is your best bet to find us. We hope you have a wonderful holiday and, speaking of discord, consider joining us for our annual holiday event; friendmas! In which we spread holiday cheer by firing gifts and friendship at each other.

Love your faces!

QUICK GAME OF THE YEAR REACTION POST:

sorry for anyone who follows me for ofmd(ive been ofline due to work+school+writing 2 ofmd fic due Dec 15th), but really quick, here's my general thoughts about my Other unhealthy habit besides writing about gay pirates!! I love gaming and this year was STRONG, so I have THOUGHTS. This is my superbowl.

Rants first:

Pizza Tower was robbed for breakout indie. By a Mile. It had 40k community reviews compared to the winners 2k. The winners were an offshoot indie company that made fuckimg LIMBO. One of the games that started the indie scene vs. a passion project between friends. All the music is being written by 1 guy with 2 developers on the game. Pizza Tower released in the first few months of 2023 to a huge breakout fandom vs. Cacoon that just came out a few months ago. I think indie needs to be more community vs. reviewer based, as the community is selling the game to future fams vs. Games Journalists. I loved Pizza Tower, but it's not a pretty game the journalists choose. I loved it, from its fast-paced music to 90s cartoon art to challenging gameplay, and it sucks that this fan community will be the people that review bombed cacoon. To me, it feels like the last of us 2 winning everything a few years ago. No hate to the devs. But damn.

-I fucking hate Hideo Kojima. I generally dispise his work as it feels like he's afraid to create 'lesser' art and uses his influence to hang out with celebrities. I think death stranding is sloppy, and most of HIS work in the Metal Gear series is dumb. His action feels slow, and his plots vaguely empty. So when I saw a more psychological horror game with his studio slapped on it(a genra you need to be VERY careful with), i wasn't happy. HOWEVER. I admire the fuck out of Jordan Peele and his version of a more sociological horror. Of systems and society and PEOPLE influencing our horror. Of what being an outcast means. So we're combining a successful studio with money and a writer who hopefully can toe the line between offensive mental health tropes and the fiction of the universe. I was fucking SQUEALING when Peele came out. (If he's a shit head, I apologize in advance). This could be a story based game that grabs me.

-please limit all announcers to a standard time frame. They should be as pressured in their speeches as the winners.

-E3 is gone. This is why there are so many announcements and adds for games va time for awards. Can we please create a separate indie vs. AAA show to highlight indie general beyond farmlife/pretry games. I want indie horror and other smaller genre to get recognized.

(Also fuck Neil druckmann for being a POS)

BG3 getting Game of the Year: spent 300+ hours playing BG3. Replaying acts 1/2 with around 5 different Tavs who never beat act 3(thanks to anxiety of finally ending a story). Romancing Karlach, Shadowheart and Astarion(dark urge). As a dragon age fan, this is the best RPG in that style I can ask for. I am delighted with every award it got, and will cherish this game for years. The dark urge 'good' playthrough featuring a plot that inspires me to this day.

Games I need to play right now apparently.

I thought Alan Wake 1 had a bad story but apparently Alan Wake 2 is right up my alley. A better horror game with better story and unreality and pushing the medium of video games. Which is my shit. I also need to understamd that dance montage. (I want to see why this won story over BG3, BG3 takes into account player action. Why did this win over 100s of hours of story content?)

The Finals. I can't stand battle royal/rainbow 6 esk games in general, but the attitude and destruction looks fun, and it's free. So fuck it.

Hi-fi rush! No clue what it is but it looked lovely and up my alley!

New stuff to look out for

That game based on Journey to the West. I was freaking out the entire trailer. I feel a long form game is the perfect way to adapt the legend. I loved watching Ellen ring and can see this become a comfort streaming game to watch.

'BLADE'- GAME???? FUCK YEAH! I was so hyped when I put the pieces together. I'm thankful for my time in the marvel fandom but I'm happy Blade was mostly ignored and we'll get a passionate team creating what will likely be a game with Batman Arkham style combat.

Free God of War DLC looks amazing, and as a rogue lite fan, I'll love to watch the story unfold online

Lost Records- from the life is strange people, is my shit. I will play it.

I finally get to play my dad's favorite Sega games with this remaster!!! All 5 look amazing.

Any Syardew Valley, Elden Ring or Hades like game. Love that shit.

[emmythespacecowgirl]

Hi! I'm the anon who was 5'0 and didn't say much about herself 🙈

Gender: female

How I am: I'd say I appear to be super shy till you get to know me, then I'll be cracking jokes all day, dancing and showing you music and movies I like.

I definitely have an issue with boundaries and it's something I'm currently working on so I can have healthier connections to people, I struggle a lot with putting myself first.

I don't like arguing, or loud screaming. I like to take life slow, see the sunrise and the sunset everyday. I fear describing myself a little because I don't want to seem like I'm throwing roses at myself for some reason

I get hurt easily but I hide it and only those who know me well, know when something has hurt me. I tend to deal with pain alone and with time I've become central to help my family deal with the hard stuff.

I'm stubborn especially when I'm behind a goal I want to accomplish, I always have to keep in mind I can be more flexible.

Hobbies: I'm not sure if going to the beach everyday is a hobbie, but it brings me tons of peace so I'll say that and watching movies is one of my hobbies. I'm also into astrology so I spend a good amount of time doing charts and reading about zodiac and mystical stuff

Personality: well..I'm a leo sun, Libra moon and Capricorn rising. I like things to be done well when it comes to work but outside of that I'm happy just sitting down and winding down tbh. I am a hopeless romantic who hides behind and says romance isn't such a big thing, but my heart will melt if someone gives me roses.

I don't know if this will help but I have a super hard time talking about myself 😭♥️

hey fam!! thanks for your patience! it took me a while to ship you tbh bc i see you as compatible with so many of them!

I ship you with:

George Luz from Band of Brothers!

ship theme song: This Will Be Our Year by The Zombies

ok hear me out

y'all are seriously so cute together!!

this boy is the crazy chaotic yin to your yang

nobody can draw people out of their shells like George can!

he literally saw you one day when he was with Perco and Lieb

and he made that "AAA-OOO-GAH!!!" sound

and Perco and Lieb were like "omg please don't do that again or we can't be seen in public together"

and George initially shrugged it off as a joke

but secretly

he was completely sold on you!

the initial meeting was maybe a lil awkward

but George is a sweet guy

your shyness never phases him

he actually decided it would be his challenge >:)

he eventually does woo you over

and nothing warms his heart like seeing your crazy kooky side

he wishes that more people got to see it

but George really compliments your personality imho

he's gregarious while you're more reserved

George loves seeing you passionate about something

whether that's movies or music

he can't help but laugh when you literally drag him over to the couch and "force" him to watch your new favorite movie

he will voraciously consume any type of media with you

nerds <3

George honestly just really likes sitting on the couch, watching you intently staring at the movie screen

he also loves your hair and how dimensional it is in the lighting with it's red and brown streaks

I'd wager that George can help you break down some of those boundaries

but encourage you to take more time for yourself

you can't be everything to everyone!

he just wants the whole world to know how truly amazing you are!

but George gets it

he struggles a lot with feeling like an object in peoples' lives

like he's only worth having around for a laugh

but with you, he realizes that he's worth a lot more than that

you help him to analyze the things that bother him

and offer advice when needed

George can't wait to bring you home to Rhode Island!

he wants his whole family to see what a gorgeous girl you are!

also Rhode Island has some of the most perfect shorelines

sooo if you can get George up before 10am

i bet that he would love to go watch the sunrise with you

George is pretty perceptive as to when you've been hurt

but he definitely knows how to cheer you up!

100 goofy impressions and you'll be rolling on the floor laughing

but also George hugs are underrated tbh

something tells me that this boy gives really good hugs

he's super proud of how dedicated you can be to accomplishing your goals

he wishes that he had half of your ambition!

fyi: he will want his whole astrological chart done ;)

idk bro shy girls and george are just canon for me <3

#my work #enjoy :) #ships #bob ships #the pacific ships #george luz #what would i dooo without george luz

[wigglesforsquiggles]

WIGGLES thank you so much for always supporting my writing legit it means so much to me<3 I can never repay you for your kindness.

Also like fam I had the idea for todays fic when I was in the shower and thinking about bdubs and his fake Lulu (idk if you’re watching bdubs but Keralis rly did that) and then made a weird connection and was like hoooly shit bdubs bird Jimmy canary last life

aaa dm ur writing is too good not to endlessly complement i often lack the words needed to express how much i love it.

it's also sort of my routine to check ur writing account bf bed and see the story u post bc i enjoy them so much and i like seeing ur ideas!! bc how!! ur so creative and consistent it's v impressive

also i hahe no been watching bdubs and keralis so the white pig lulu was a v funny shock to me lmao

#orb do not worry i am going to bed i just needed to answer dm :D #hi dm :D #wiggles asks #i kid u not when i made the canary connection w jimmy i laughed outloud #like a 'HA' #b good story i rly enjoyed it today!!

[thelazyhermits]

hi haze!! i hope you're doing well bc i'm sending you my angsty thoughts for your encanto!tabf au XD (if ur still accepting them ofc 👉👈)

so i was rereading "a lie more comfortable than truth" until i suddenly wondered what it would be like if it's in the encanto!tabf universe n had a so many angsty hcs abt that bc i am a sucker for pain apparently 😌👌

the plot is pretty much the same, w fortune n izuku having the same situation as mirabel and bruno in the fic, wherein izuku helps shouta n hitoshi look after fortune by making sure she doesn't stay in her room for too long, have her get some fresh air n some food. meanwhile, fortune is just stressed n paranoid over the Death Vision she got abt izuku, using her gift to see into multiple futures (and similarly to bruno, she only saw futures of war and death of ppl outside their valley) which puts a huge toll on her health n sanity, n it worries shouta n hitoshi a lot bc they see how she doesn't look as great as she used to :(((((

(in this au, i imagine that fortune, like bruno, keeps this vision between herself n grandma, mainly bc grandma pleaded/ordered her not to spill it n also bc fortune's afraid of what her brothers n the fam might think or do. n maybe a little part of her wants to believe that if she ignores this vision n goes on w her life like normal, than maybe it wouldn't come true. OOF PAIN)

izuku doesn't seem to mind taking care of/spending time w fortune even w katsuki being an ass about it n calling izuku essentially a babysitter for a grown adult. he likes hanging out w fortune bc she tells cool stories n doesn't belittle him for every lil thing he does to make the family proud :,)) WHICH MAKES THE VISION REVEAL SCENE EVEN MORE SAD N TRAGIC HHHHH

i like to imagine that the first person to discover the death vision when izuku tried yoinking it from grandma's room is katsuki (for character development >:D), then he tells mirio bc katsuki has the common sense not to tell shouta n hitoshi, the two protective members of the fam when it comes to izuku. then the matchmaking dinner happens but it goes sideways fast w eri's monkeys doing their thing w the vision tablet, katsuki n mirio trying to keep it away from the fam until bOOM chaos happens when it's revealed, w hitoshi thundering, inko crying, katsuki involuntarily creating sparks, fortune having a serious breakdown, n grandma close to tears, which ends the same way in the original fic w izuku keeping the family together while he talks w fortune abt the vision, like mirabel with bruno.

for more angst, i feel like katsuki - who had been holding back from saying anything to fortune throughout the dinner until the big reveal - would be hella pissed n confused, demanding fortune why she kept it a secret n close to grabbing her by the front of her shirt before hitoshi n shouta put a stop to it. but katsuki just goes on to yell at fortune abt her "taking advantage of izuku's kindness" which sets off fortune into angrily telling him he's wrong and then it all dissolves into just,,,,arguing, consequently forming cracks in minka. then the collapse happens, and yaknow the rest 👀

AAA thanks for indulging my thoughts, ur encanto!tabf au is really occupying my brain today n im not complaining <3

Of course, I am still accepting them! I am always happy to talk about this AU and all the angst potential it has lol

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! This angst is so real here. Fortune would absolutely be devastated if she were in Bruno's shoes in this particular fic setting.

This kind of scenario would take such a heavy toll on Fortune mentally and physically. Poor Shouta & Hitoshi would be so worried about her. On the bright side, all the Fortune & Izuku moments would be very cute and wholesome, at least at the start lol

I could definitely see things turning out just as you described. I would definitely wanna put Katsuki in the same position as Isabela for that character development, and he would definitely be the one to yell at Fortune once the vision gets revealed to everyone.

And oh man the river scene where Fortune pulls Izuku out would be so emotional. She's crying, she's yelling, she's a mess lol

On a funnier note, Katsuki wouldn't volunteer to jump into the river. he'd be the one saying how stupid an idea that is lol 😂

#TRMIY asks #so much angst potential #poor fortune would be even worse off than the regular storyline #just when you think you can't cause her any more pain #another way presents itself lol #thank you for sharing your thoughts with me! #I always love hearing from you!

[aleenya]

18, 22 and 24 for the author questions?

18) were there any works you read that affected you so much that it influenced your writing style? what were they?

I will forever and always cite Richard Adams as my biggest inspiration. I was seven years old when I first read Watership Down; initially, I was lured in by its beautifully crafted prose, and how the author treated his young audience with a respect so rare for that age. During the next two years, I would go on to read ‘the murderous rabbit book’ a total of six times. So captivated was I by its simple narrative, yet complex language, that I sought to recreate similar works. My writing began as awkward and stiltedly phrased as a child’s could be, but as time passed and I drowned in more and more of the written word, so did I absorb and learn from the novels I grew to treasure and adore.

Those novels were too many to count, but the ones I remember most fondly are Jane Eyre, Call of the Wild, Stephen King’s various horror anthologies, Kingdom by the Sea, The Book Thief, Warriors…and any Victorian novel I could get my grimy little hands on. I credit all these and more for the style I’ve developed today, which is essentially fast paced, and action orientated text with a strong focus on emotion and characterization.

I still go weak at the knees for purple prose though, so expect me to constantly be slipping that in there too xDD

22) are there any subjects that make you uncomfortable to write?

I’m not a believer in shocking for the sake of shocking, or gratuitous for the sake of controversy. Having said that, I do think that sometimes writing should make you uncomfortable and deal with sensitive issues. Me personally, I write what resonates most strongly with me. Turning my experiences and philosophies into words and metaphors is my favorite part of putting pen to paper (…finger to keys is apter actually). So, if it’s in service of a scene and does have a purpose, and it’s something I’ve personal experience on, I won’t hesitate to write it in.

The only topic that makes me genuinely uncomfortable, reading or otherwise, is sex. I’m not a prude, but it’s something I personally have no interest in and find gross. So yeah, you’ll never see me writing that.

24) have you ever become an expert on something you previously knew nothing about, in order to better a scene or a story?

BIRDS. God, just…birds. I’ve always been interested in ornithology, but it was my childhood novel Northern Wind that sent me into the spiraling pit of fascination. More specifically, house sparrows. What started as brief research turned into information that is crammed into my brain to this very day. Seriously, I know way too much about these tiny creatures. So yeah. If you have any questions about house sparrows, I’m your girl 😐

(Fun fact! To differentiate between genders, you’ll notice that male house sparrows have darker shades of brown in their plumage, alongside a black breast that serves two purposes: one, to indicate age, and two, to indicate social status within the hierarchy of a flock. Sparrows are also known to mate for life. You’re welcome.)

12/15/2020 ! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PONKAT !

Our boi is 2 years old! :'D 

Thanks for being a brave and affectionate companion. I'm glad to see you grow up handsome~ Ponkat was our first rescue cat. We took him in despite our "no pets allowed" policy. He did his best to cling to dear life and keep surviving. He taught me so many things like being a better listener, and not giving up on life. I'm a better person because of him. I first saw him drinking water from the swimming pool during the drought season. He started to hang out in our garage for shelter. We decided to feed him. I felt a strong affection for him so I brought him to the vet (ohh I remembered how I sobbed after hearing his condition) I am so glad the fam agreed on taking him in as our first ever family pet. He had mange and mites so he stayed outdoors in his carrier at first. He started to recover and gain strength! We did our best with the medication and vitamins. We bought him a scratching post & a fishing rod toy. He grew up having a fondness for the said toy type cuz it reminded him of when I would play with him. I gave this cat all the love because I had so much respect for something so little and sickly hanging on to survive bravely In my younger years, I was a more selfish and a bit insensitive person. I struggled with these because I was used to being a loner doing my own thing. I also was at a point where I almost gave up on many things in life after a critical an depressing incident. It was hard :( I met Ponkat and learned how to listen better, be more sensitive, and be less selfish. This positively affected my relationships with people around me- including my family, who deserves the good stuff. I'm glad I grew out of those horrible traits. When a big dog was about to chase mom outside the house, Ponkat jumped in her defense! When one of our other cats would be in trouble or if something is amiss, Ponkat would alert us. He also found one of our lost cats, Tuxie. If it weren't for him, Tuxie would've been a goner. During feeding time, Ponkat would let the others eat first (especially his girlfriend, Cali. As well as the smaller cats) He also loves sleeping with mom and dad. He is very affectionate and loves it when we pick him up and huggle him. He would push his nose to our faces! One time when Ponkat was younger,he scratched my fingers REAL DH CRIT I did a huge drama of sobbing on my knees in front of him so he would learn his lesson. I didn't expect him to take it so seriously since he looked so guilty. He never did that rough play again and was careful aaa I have so many things to say-- I love Ponkat. I am who I am right now partly because of him. He's a bratty boy with a hot temperament that loves excitement and adventure. But he is fiercely loyal and sweet. I hope to spend my life with him for as long as possible <3

So

These are some notes that I took while I watched DE for the first time. It’s a lot. Like, six pages, a lot. I decided I should probably spare everyone’s dashboards and put it under a cut.

Warning: overuse of the fuck word because I am a dramatic little shit who gets overwhelmed easily

- Alright here we go. I don’t know if I’m mentally prepared to go through this hhhhh

- THE CINEMATOGRAPHY I NUT

- fuck he smellin the flowers good

Kamelot to release stunning new live album “I Am The Empire – Live From The O13”

[Kamelot News]

Symphonic metal masters Kamelot return with their newest offering I Am The Empire – Live From The 013, to be released on August 14, 2020 via Napalm Records!

The majestic live album/DVD/BluRay, recorded at the legendary 013 in Tilburg, Netherlands, consists of twenty-one songs that will tug on your heartstrings, make you want to bang your head and give you a taste of Kamelot’s grandness live on stage with more than 100 minutes of live music and multiple exclusive extras, including backstage interviews of all guests, bandmembers and fans.

Today, Kamelot have released the live video of their performance of Sacrimony (Angel of Afterlife) – featuring Alissa White-Gluz (Arch Enemy) and Elize Ryd (Amaranthe), taken from the Silverthorn album (2012), which marked one of the many highlights of this night to remember for all attending fans and musicians. The hit single starts off with adventurous first notes and ominous vocal lines, evoking the palpable, non-stop energy to come. This auditory epic soars to new heights in its live incarnation.

Kamelot frontman Tommy Karevik on “Sacrimony (Angel of Afterlife)”: “We can now proudly announce that the first video to be released from the show will be “Sacrimony (Angel of Afterlife)”. The song marks the beginning of a new era as it was one of the main songs on Silverthorn, the first Kamelot album with me as the singer. Enjoy!”

September 14, 2018 marked one of the highlights of Kamelot’s very successful career. The band around mastermind Thomas Youngblood, known for its high class collaborations, invited the creme de la creme of the Symphonic Metal scene to celebrate that evening in Tilburg. Featured guest musicians like Alissa White-Gluz (Arch Enemy), Charlotte Wessels (Delain), Elize Ryd (Amaranthe) and Lauren Hart (Once Human) – just to name a few – made this evening in Tilburg an unforgettable night to remember for every fan and musician in attendance.

This concert setlist features Kamelot in prime shape – with a hand-picked mixture of Kamelot classics and live premieres, rounded off by stunning production and mixed and mastered by Sascha Paeth (Avantasia, Epica and more)!

Kamelot guitarist Thomas Youngblood on “I Am The Empire – Live From The 013”: “We are pleased beyond words to present our new live album/DVD/BluRay I Am The Empire – Live From The 013. After multiple sold out events in The Netherlands, it was only fitting to film this event at Tilburg’s famed 013 venue. The icing on the cake was having all the special guests attend this historic night, it was truly divine.”

Arch Enemy’s Alissa White-Gluz says: “It was a magical evening that night. It was so much fun to play such a nice long set with a packed house of fans who knew every word to every song alongside my Kam fam and girlfriends!”

Amaranthe’s Elize Ryd comments: ”It was an historical moment for me to take part in this Kamelot live-DVD recording. Let’s not forget that it was with Kamelot I began my touring life, and we toured a lot. I am so happy to finally be able to perpetuate the era of hard work and friendship with such great quality. A huge thanks to the entire Kamelot family for embracing my presence on this very special evening.”

Delain’s Charlotte Wessels adds: “It was an absolute delight performing “Under Grey Skies” with Kamelot live in 013 during their special night. It felt like a big family gathering. Thank you for including me. I am sure that this DVD will be a wonderful memento for Kamfans worldwide!”

Once Human’s Lauren Hart says: “What a MASTERPIECE!! It was a huge honor to share the stage with so many legends and witness this beautiful piece of Kamelot history!”

🤒 + 🫂 + ⚽️ for the nordics fam? :3

🤒 How did you take care of S/I when they were ill, or were having a bad moment in general?

¨Since uh theres no specification on us, I´m going to answer!¨

¨When she gets sick, I would just let her lay in bed- she usually watches cartoons or like get in with social media- She would also draw too- As usual, I just make chicken soup for her- ¨

¨I would give Resilar if coughs get intense but yeah, it seems that she mostly gets a common cold though. We often visit along and hang out sometimes, well- I mostly come in to check how she´s doing- I would just tell others when she would be sleeping or not-¨

¨When she´s having a bad moment- Again I would be there to listen if she needs to vent anything- I would give her a couple of jokes to cheer her up- for sure I would find what gives her a smile :) or could help to find distraction if she likes to- As far as i know, we care about her a lot¨ - Tino

🫂 - Who's the most protective, you or S/I?

"Me! I make sure if she's safe- I text her a lot when she's out hanging out- though I'm the same just looking out for my brothers-" - Matthias

⚽️ Do you and S/I have any hobbies in common, or a sibling tradition?

"Yep- Cos and I play video games a lot sometimes- Cooking and baking is a usual activity we´ve done! As well we play some of sports.. Soccer, badminton, tennis- everyone else also liked that- Well- for the video games, Emil and Lukas joins in a lot with us-¨ - Matthias

¨Cosvin and I can draw- Im quite surprised that they can be creative with storytelling and invention-¨ - Lukas

¨yeah! She was quite great with that- for hobbies, we also forage around along, then also hike and camp-¨

Ah we love doing that a lot- ¨ - Tino
