Half of my WIP book is surviving off of those early 2010s YouTube slow/ballad covers of pop songs. Like, we're talking Sam Tsui, Kurt Hugo Schneider, Max Schneider, Alyson Stoner, ATC, Alex Goot type stuff. The vibes are immaculate. They give off the most rom-com energy possible, both the angsty bits and the sappy ones. 10/10 for setting the vibes.

"And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming,
Or the moment of truth in your lies,
When everything feels like the movies,
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive,"

BCB Character Playlists ~ Tom
For inspiration purposes, I had a playlist of songs for each character that I created way back in...2015...but I kept adding more songs along the way. It really helped me get in the mindset to write. I also loved imagining music videos in my head to most of these. 
So I figured some of you would enjoy seeing what I had on my playlists. I didn’t include every single song because some of them I was like “why is this on here?” Maybe you’ll find a new song you like! ...Or maybe not because I guess I mostly listen to pop...
Let’s start with Tom!
Tumblr media
One Call Away - Charlie Puth
We Found Love - Rihanna ft. Calvin Harris (Alex Goot Cover)
Animal - Neon Trees (both the original and this minor cover by Chase Holfelder, for when that bad ending gets you)
Sweet Escape - Nightcore
Check Yes Juliet - We The Kings (RUN!!!)
Brand New - Ben Rector
Radioactive - Imagine Dragons
End Game - Taylor Swift
Stitches - Shawn Mendes
New Light - John Mayer
friends don’t look at friends that way - Tate McRae (just look at the above CG heh)
It’ll Be Okay - Shawn Mendes (Stay or Go?)
Say You Won’t Let Go - James Arthur (Did I post the comic of this one on tumblr?)
I Hope You’re Happy - Blue October (pining for you while you play other routes)
Everything Goes On - Porter Robinson (the music video in my head is Magical Musicians AU themed with cross-cutting to the real world bad ending “Wait for Me.” Also if you watch the League of Legends MV know that I would sell my soul for Rakan.)
Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush (there are so many epic covers/remixes too, like this one, and this one. With the ticking clock, I like to imagine Cadence resetting the game after the tragic “Wait for Me” ending, only to get the “Where the Bullet Went” ending.)
Lifetime - Three Days Grace (this song was my addiction at one point, from Tom’s POV, pairs with “Where the Bullet Went” or even “Sorry.” The angst is so yummy.)
Next time is Peter!

Yield
MHA prompt based off of song Something Just Like This by Alex Goot + Madilyn Bailey
Pairing: Allmight x reader
Summary: Allmight has had a crush on you for a while and constantly tries to show off and impress you whenever you're around. Usually it just makes you roll your eyes and laugh at his flamboyant tactics, trying to convince you to go on just one date with him. Despite your similar feelings you keep rejecting Allmight, and even though the number one hero never gives up, it may cost him his smile this time.
Notes: I have never written for Allmight before so i'm not sure how well I'll capture his character. But when I first heard this song and started thinking about how I could use it for inspiration, this idea was the only one to stick and with Allmight as lead, so. (I may make a part two, haven't decided yet.)
You first met the pro hero by chance.
A villain crashed through your flower shop while running away from the police. Allmight joined in the chase and caught him, but at the cost of destroying the place. So when you came back from grabbing lunch the place is trashed, filled with cops, and Allmight smiling bright in the middle of it all, waiting for you to praise his heroics as he posed dramatically.
Instead you hit him over the head with a nearby bouquet of flowers shouting about how he ruined your business and was going to cost you a fortune to fix it all. He's helpless (bc obviously he can't fight you or run away) and no one else seems to know what to do bc technically you were making valid points. He tries explaining that the city would cover the repairs and there was nothing for you to worry about but that wasn't the point. Eventually he just sits there and takes it until the bouquet was nothing but a fistful of stems. You stop to catch your breath and tell Allmight that if the police had what they needed then it was time for everyone to leave. You had a lot of cleaning up to do.
It's well into the evening and the daylight is fading, setting a time limit on your clean up. There's a knock on what used to be the front door, and you're ready to give Allmight round two as he steps into the rubble. He asks you to wait, at least long enough for him to explain what he was doing there. Allmight felt bad for destroying your shop, and for all the upset it's caused you. So he decided to come back and help you clean up a bit. A professional crew would be by in the morning but you needed to sort out what could be salvaged, what was totaled, make sure all your important documents were still safe and secure, etc. Allmight held up a bag of food and drinks from the local convenience store in one hand and a large outdoor light in the other. He figured this might happen if you were still here so late and made sure to come bearing gifts. You don't want to thank him, this was all his fault to begin with, but you take the bag anyways and tell him where to place the light. Then to start sifting through the mess over in that corner.
A few weeks later when your shop reopens Allmight makes a special appearance to try and help draw attention and customers back to it. He personally buys two large armfuls of bouquets and people are lining the street trying to buy from the same shop as Allmight. After locking up he's waiting for you outside and hands you a small bundle of flowers that he picked himself on the way over. It was just some dandelions and yellow daisies from the side of the road but it was still incredibly sweet of him. (Maybe not the most thoughtful since you're a real florist and these were technically weeds, but none the less sweet.) He apologizes again for the trouble he's caused, and you finally let him off the hook.
You were on your way to get dinner and offered to treat him if he joined. He really did go above and beyond helping you kickstart your business back up, it was the least you could do in return. But before Allmight can answer a group of people recognize him and swarm around asking for autographs and photos. It doesn't take long for them to be satisfied and leave but now you understood why he hesitated to answer. He couldn't really go anywhere without being recognized or something like that happening.
Instead he offers to walk you home. You lead him down the back roads to help avoid him being seen. "Sounds lonely, and exhausting. Constantly having to be a hero even off duty, not really ever getting to take off the costume and just be a person." No one had said that to Allmight before; everyone idolized heroes, wanted to be just like him, and so on. But you were the first person to read between the lines and see some of the sacrifice that came with the job. Allmight asks what your quirk was but you don't one. Both of your parents did but you never inherited either of them. You didn't mind though. There was plenty you could still do and contribute to this world without having some superhuman ability, it's why you loved botany so much. You didn't need an awesome superpower to be able to grow and create something so beautiful. Only to nurture, care for, and have patience. Allmight soaks in every word you say and knows then that he hasn't seen the last of you.
After that, he’d sneak around to visit you while you worked and he was in the area. At first you weren't amused by his antics, especially since he's knocked over a vase of flowers more than once. But the poor thing would just forget that he wasn't the playful little puppy he pranced around your shop behaving like. Your customers loved seeing him around and eventually you did as well. He helped you change up displays and you taught him how to properly cut flower stems before placing them in a vase. You had to get onto him more than once for wasting the merchandise pretending to be in a soap opera feigning faint. How could he not though 'when Alejandro AND Roberto gave him a single rose at the ball (hence why he was spinning around your shop with roses in his mouth), the same night it's revealed that Camillo survived the crash five years ago and was back to reclaim his first love's heart?!' You had no clue what he was talking about and after making the mistake of admitting that to Allmight, Telenovela-Tuesday's came into affect that same week. He provided the tacos and margaritas, you supplied the tissues.
Allmight would surprise you at work, showing up with food if it was close to your lunch break. You'd lock up the shop and eat together. You used to eat out on the floor but whenever someone noticed The Allmight sitting inside, they'd make a fuss against your display window and door until he came out or you let them in. The back office was too small to comfortably sit the large hero though, even if it was funny to see him try, so the new spot became the roof. No one could see you two, plus you already had a simple lounge area setup up there so it was perfect. You'd either climb up the fire escape to meet Allmight or if he was already at your shop, he'd hold you (as respectfully as possible) in one arm before taking a single leap to the top. That was his favorite thing; the sudden rush of motion made your face light up for a moment if not also accompanied by the cutest fit of laughter. He made sure you rarely if ever beat him up to the roof, and if you did, he could still revel in the way you'd hold onto him a little tighter while he held you jumping back down. The hardest part was feeling you slip out of his arms after your feet touched the ground again.
Sometimes Allmight walked you home at night to make sure you made it back safely, and if he wasn't busy you'd invite him inside. Maybe you'd sit and talk over a warm cup of tea or coffee. Or if a favorite show or movie was going to be on soon, you were more than happy to have the company. You had a garden in your backyard and Allmight loved helping you tend to and harvesting it when ready. Nothing physical ever happened between you two, nor did Allmight ever attempt anything. He was more than happy to just have this time with you. Occasionally he’d swing by while on night patrol to say hello and goodnight before you went to bed, promising that you were safe since he was there. It would make you smile, and you never admitted this but you did sleep better those nights.
Allmight's feelings continually grew for you but he could respect your reasoning for turning him down. It wasn’t out of fear for your own life and safety by being involved with a hero, nothing like that. But being one of the few people in this world without a quirk, you just didn’t fit into the world of superheroes. All you wanted was a companion to go through life with; a simple and quiet life. Not having to worry if they would come back home or not, or the anxiety of turning on the news to see them fighting a dangerous villain. You'd lost your father at a young age, your mother in high school, and your little brother only a few years back in a car accident. You're heart just couldn't take another loss, and if you involved yourself with a pro hero; it was too real of a possibility. Allmight wished he could tell you the truth about his power because maybe then you’d reconsider, but he knows that he can’t. So even though he wishes you could be together he never tells you, and is content with just making you smile. It was his favorite smile.
So the two of you maintain this nameless relationship for over a year and Allmight is content. Then one day Allmight notices you're closing up your flower shop early. There's a downcast expression on your face and it worries him. He asks what's wrong, if anything's happened. You refuse to tell him the truth at first, you won't even look up from the ground, but he trails after you and refuses to let it go like you keep insisting he does. How could he? You were clearly upset about something, even tearing up now, and your voice was starting to crack. He blocks your path and you beg him to not make you say it; not wanting to hurt his feelings or to make it harder on you to go through with. Allmight's confused and doesn't understand why you chose that specific phrasing, but then he realizes.
He asks if you were going on a date and there's no need for you to respond.
The guy wasn't a bad guy or anything. He was a kind, simple, straight forward man who worked a good 9-5 job in town, had a cute cat. He'd been trying to ask you out for a while but you just didn't feel anything for him; you cared for Allmight. But since that door couldn't be opened, and you weren't getting any younger, it was time to just pick someone if you ever wanted to get married and settle down...if you ever wanted to stop being alone.
Allmight's a statue while you try to explain why you were doing this but he feels his heart freezing over and doesn't know the right thing to do. You can see how much this was hurting him, the internal struggle to maintain his stature vs to show how he was really feeling; you've never seen such a sad smile before. It wasn't an easy decision, and not being able to take the pain on his face any longer you race off in tears, leaving Allmight standing alone in the alley. What was he going to do. He knew that things weren't going anywhere with you and that they probably never would. But, it was always only a 'probably'; there was always a chance and hope that things could work out one day if he waited and was patient. He didn't necessarily care about getting married and didn't want to have any children of his own, so if time was what you needed then he was going to wait. Maybe it wouldn't be until after he retired as a pro hero but the time would come and then he'd have his chance.
But now...what was he supposed to do now...
I'll tell you what he does:
While you finished getting ready for your date tonight, there's a familiar knock on your back door and you're not sure if you should let him in or not. You've already done your makeup and if you started crying again you wouldn't have time to fix it. But your heart is tugging at you too hard. Allmight's dressed in a suit, a different one than the usual one he always wore when he wasn't in his hero costume, and hair done differently. He had a (real) bouquet of flowers in his hands along with your favorite snack for your movie nights together. You ask him what he's doing and Allmight tells you not to go on a date with this other guy. That if you were going to go on a date with anyone, then it should be him. So here he was, finally and formally, asking you out.
It hurts so much to have to tell him no yet again, especially since you wished you could say yes, and you can't stop the tears. It wouldn't work with you being just you and him being THE number one pro hero-
"I'll quit."
".....What did you just say...?"
"I'll quit. I'll retire, right now; tonight."
"Allmight you can't just-?!"
"If that's what it takes for you to say yes y/n, and to give me the chance to make you the happiest woman in the world then I; Allmight, will retire from being The Symbol of Peace, effective immediately."
"NO!!?! WHY would you do that-why would you even SAY THAT!!? I CAN'T LET YOU-"
Allmight gives his all in this kiss. It's surprisingly tender and gentle but you can feel him pouring his whole heart into it, it's overwhelming and too much. You tremble in his arms that maintain an unshakable grip and your tears fall freely. It felt so safe right here in his arms, you didn't know what you would do now that you've felt what it's like and couldn't stay forever. His lips are soft and massage yours with just enough force to fill you with fireworks that wouldn't stop. Your hands are fisting into his shirt, shaking, trying to decide if you should push him away or pull him closer. You didn't know. You had no clue what to choose: what you wanted or knew was for the best? A hand swipes away the tears but the kiss doesn't stop. No, Allmight overwhelms you with the sincerity of his affection for you, not giving you a chance to try and clear your mind. He just wanted you to feel a fraction of what he felt for you; this was him on his knees, heart in his hands, pleading with you one last time to give him a chance. Because now Allmight had taken things to a place where they could never go back to the way they were before; before he swept you into his arms a few moments ago. You knew it too and it's why your tears didn't stop.
You had to choose, once and for all, and it had to be now.
When Allmight finally pulled away his face was just as sad as yours, with his forehead resting against yours. His smile is completely gone and his voice a whisper as he pleads one final time,
"...please y/n. Just, one chance...just one"
His hands cupped your cheeks but it felt like he could hold your entire head if he wanted to. He was literally down on his knees in the middle of your living room; a mountain of a man, making himself as small as possible as he gave his absolute all for this chance right now. Your hands hold onto his as you tried to stifle your whimpers, never wanting to let go of them. You didn't want to let go of him...at all.
"...again" Allmight meets your gaze "...kiss me again, Allmight."
This time you melt into him as your lips reconnect. He holds you a little tighter and kisses you with a bit more force. His face in your hands felt velvet smooth as you pull him in closer and more butterflies erupt. There were no thoughts about the future swimming around in your head at the moment. You only felt the here and now, memorizing every aspect of it, refusing to let any of it slip from memory. Allmight was warm, and had all the comforts of home that you craved, and made you feel safe beyond measure. You could never let him go. Not now.

So, I discovered Taylor Swift’s song ‘Begin Again’ as a result of The Piano Guys (which is how I’ve been discovering a bit of pop music lately - either they mash it up with something classical, or they just do a piano+cello instrumental version. In this case they’ve done the latter and also a version featuring Megan Nicole and Alex Goot. (Both on their album The Piano Guys 2.)
Anyway, after listening to it multiple times, it sparked an idea for a Berena fic (loosely inspired by some of the lyrics) and it just hit 7k words (though it’s not finished yet).
So here’s a few hundred words for Fragment Friday (which is not a thing except when it is!):
Serena can’t help smiling as she sees Bernie across the café getting to her feet as Serena walks towards her. She has a rather old-fashioned, gentlemanly habit of doing such things, like pulling out Serena’s chair once she reaches their table and helping her into it. It makes Serena feel taken care of, in a way she never did with her ex, Robbie. 
“What can I get you?” Bernie asks. “Besides your usual ‘medicinal’ pain au chocolat.” She smirks a bit at that, it remains their little inside joke, after Serena had once said she needed such a thing when they’d gone out to dinner the night before to a lovely little Italian restaurant with an extensive wine list. 
She rolls her eyes at Bernie, then asks for a macchiato. 
“Late night?” Bernie asks sympathetically. 
Serena nods. “I’ll tell you later.” 
“Okay. Back in a few minutes.” Bernie strides across to the counter and joins the mercifully short queue. They’ve worked out that this is the best time to come to the café to meet up as it’s in the lull between the workers coming in to caffeinate before they head off to start their days and the lunchtime rush. 
Serena can’t help watching Bernie: she’s got legs that go on for days, a slim, athletic figure, and is one of the most caring and compassionate people she’s ever met. She’s also gay and Serena’s beginning to accept that she’s got a crush on the trauma surgeon, despite never having been more than friends with a woman before. 
They had met in this café about six weeks ago, Serena had been enjoying doing some shopping on her day off when the heavens had opened and she’d slipped into The Hideout, amused by the name, and found herself in the queue behind Bernie Wolfe. The woman’s figure had caught her attention first of all, then her astonishing laugh in response to something the young woman at the till had said to her. Bernie had turned around a little too quickly in search of somewhere to sit, bumping into Serena and knocking one of her shopping bags to the floor. She’d blushed pink along her cheekbones, apologised in a flustered fashion, then got down on her hands and knees to pick up the spilled contents of Serena’s shopping bag, before handing it over with a less flustered apology. Serena had been instantly charmed by Bernie’s manner, accepted the apology, then suggested that the two of them sit together. Now they meet up once or twice a week, depending on their shift patterns and scheduled days off, since Bernie works in the ED over at St Mark’s hospital.
