What even is Be Mine Superstar?

It’s a love story.

It’s Horny on Main.

It’s a representation of the toxicity in the industry.

It’s Bosston’s body’s breakout role.

It’s an end to Ja & First’s innocence.

Honestly each week is a new adventure & I’m loving it.

Best Fragrantica reviews of (some of) my favorite perfumes, Part II

First installment here

Maison Martin Margiela By the Fireplace

Careful not to be worn by this perfume instead of being you the wearer. Not that it is oh so powerful, but it may be too bold of a statement piece for, ahem, some. Wearing BTF when you don't look the part and don't give it sense will have you smelling borderline unhealthy. Like your organs inside have worn off and darkened (and burned out, I guess). Truly as weird as it sounds. The raw thing smells very exciting. I love it ashy. I don't see myself daring any soon, however. And I don't find that it worked for the men I know either, as they have (and I cringe to say) whiter auras and don't fit the "handling cognac by the fire" thing. So I've yet to see it really work, which I'm sure will be great. It's a lovely perfume.

Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab Bewitched

This is the smell of a witch's brew. She made a special tea for you to drink. You pass out. When you awaken you find yourself in her garden full of poisonous berries, patchouli, weeds, clary sage, and flowers whose petals have been plucked. This is an herbal scent, like walking inside a shop selling only herbs. It's medicinal and like a tea. Not always easy to take in...The smell of sage and musk give it a unisex/masculine quality. I would say that it's more of a guy's type of cologne than a woman's. I would wear it for Halloween with a witch costume or as Morticia Addams. It's really a very engaging scent but it's linear and simple. It's a little green tea and berry. It's got a bite but it's witchy and dark, but not a strong cologne either. For a niche indie frag, not bad.

TokyoMilk Gin & Rosewater

I was in a boutique that carries the Tokyo Milk Curiosite & Bon Bon lines, and I was entranced by this. Florals are not usually my thing, by the way, because I get monster headaches from most of them. Suddenly the salesgirl is RIGHT NEXT TO ME leaning in conspiratorially and says in an awed tone that 'Blake Lively LOVES this one'. OMFG, Blake Lively, you say??!? Like for serious, the real Blake Lively?? OMFG, do you have like, more in the back?!? I'm totally going to buy every bottle you can shove in my basket because BLAKE LIVELY would hang out with me if we ran into each other and then my life could end. Um, not. I almost DIDN'T buy it because of the salesgirls then going into a tizzy about how amazing Blake is. I could not care less, although I'm sure Lively is nice enough. But it did smell cool, so home with me it came, along with the matching lotion.

Serge Lutens La Fille de Berlin

It’s an overwhelming fragrance that smells like the bottom of my grandma’s small square leather purse when we went to mass (her old dried up lipstick💄 the powder compact, the newspaper, the pack of strawberry-ish scented kleenex, the peppermints). It’s vintage, it’s a bit suffocating and I have it printed in my memory 4 ever.

Juliette Has a Gun Magnolia Bliss

Anastasia Steele, no longer a virgin. In her Audi A3, the smell of her new car, first edition books and a new life... That's what comes into mind with this perfume. The night Christian took her for the first time on his helicopter. I can imagine this is exactly what she smelled like that night. With Ellie Goulding's Love me like you do playing in the background. 

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540

I’m too embarrassed and ashamed to wear this in public just in case a fragrantica influencer comes out of a bush and starts pointing & laughing at me in front of everyone

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille

what all the hot daddies in every lana del rey song smell like

Jo Malone Velvet Rose & Oud

If your family was religious, traditionally Asian, or both, you'll know this scent. This is the scent of a temple. This is the scent of an altar. Personally I can never wear this because smelling this brings back so many memories of burning incenses, visiting funerals, and saying prayers and wishes. My bottle is literally sitting on an altar.

Perfumer's Workshop Tea Rose

Speaking of the devil. This scent is the one with the Prada's shoes.

4160 Tuesdays Doe in the Snow

This is borne on a Christmas Eve, under the moonlight, a baby fawn just out of it's mother's womb. The moon is full light casting blue shadows snow lightly falling delicate flakes each one unique on the nose of the new born... Pure fresh Christmas morning air stillness not a sound blanketed with drifts of snow that is Doe In The Snow... pure white innocence...velvet petals so delicate under the driven snow...I have seen this in a dream... Another love... I get it...

From the Shadows

[Five Hargreeves x Reader]

[Part I] [Part II] [Part III] [Part IV] [Part V]

Summary : The thing about Love is— it can't stay in the shadows.

Warning : None?

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU TOLD HIM!?"

Your voice rings out in the room.

You'd been sulking in your room. Lights off, headphones in as you laid on your bed listening to the heartbreak playlist you created especially for this day.

And then Lila just came barging in. Announcing, "I told him."

And now you're teetering on the edge of a breakdown.

She shrugs. "Exactly what I said. Told him that you're becoming Laurie to his Jo."

"YOU TOLD HIM!?"

She folds her arm, leaning against the closed door. "Yes. Ja. Oui. Sí. Need me to go on?"

She-She told him. Told him. Him. Five.

"You…" you start, feeling rather faint. "You told Five?"

"No, I told Reggie," she scoffs. Rolling her eyes. "Obviously, I told him."

Your eyes widen.

"WHAT THE FUCK LILA!?"

"Calm down," she says. Frowning.

You ignore her. You start to pace around your room, stepping up on the bed and crossing over, and back again. Your mind in overdrive, as you try to think of a way out of this mess.

"I don't get it," Lila states. Eyes following your movements. "I thought this would make you happy." You give her an incredulous glance. "You were too scared, so I did it for you. You couldn't have planned to keep it a secret forever."

You step down from your bed. "Lila. Lila. Lila," you say. Coming to a stop in front of her. "You aren't supposed to tell your crush that you have a crush on them!"

"What, why?" she questions.

Inhaling a deep breath, you start your thesis. "So that your crush doesn't get the chance to reject you," you start. Raising your hand to stop her once she opens her mouth.

"See, when you don't have a definite answer about whether they feel the same or not, you get to have this illusion," you explain. Hands moving animatedly as you do so. "You can think that certain gestures they make or things they say are because they feel the same. You get to have this piece of dream in reality. You're allowed to feel those heart flutters, so long as you don't know what they actually feel." You look her in the eye. "Because once that happens, the illusion shatters."

Lila blinks. Once. Twice. Before simply stating—

"That sounds unhealthy."

Your nose twitches in irritation. "YOUR CRUSH ISN'T SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE YOUR CRUSH!" you burst out. Hands coming onto her shoulders as you shake her a bit. "DO YOU UNDERSTAND LILA? THIS IS A RULE OF CRUSHING!"

She nods frantically.

Silence.

"Do you really love him that much?"

You chew on your lips. Trying to find the right words.

"Half the beat of my heart is longing, and the other half is him." It's the best way you can describe what you feel.

There's a silent pause. You hear crickets in the background.

It is then she drops the bomb.

"He said to tell you he wants to talk."

•••

Except he didn't.

Talk that is.

Talking involves two people. It's not talking when he simply said—

"I don't—I'm not—I think I should stay away for a while. For your sake. You know, considering."

And then he gave a jerky nod and all but ran away.

So, you see no talking.

Your gaze trails in his direction.

He is sitting near the back.

Next to Delores.

Your breath blooms in your abdomen, the edges darken with pain, one you feel all over your ribs and heart.

You turn to the front.

The breaths inflamed by pain, trudge up your esophagus leaving imprints of burn, your mouth tastes ashy in their wake. The burning nestles somewhere between your nose and eyes, the fumes reaching both.

Your eyes water. You pretend it's to quell the fire and not to add to it.

Blinking. Blinking. Blinking.

Don't cry, you request.

"I hope everyone is ready for the speaking activity."

Your teacher's voice snaps you out.

What class is it?

Oh, right Literature.

Wait— did she say speaking activity?

Fuck.

•••

It's your turn. And you've not a clue what to say.

You walk towards the front of the class. Contemplating.

You have two options, a. Stand in front of everyone like an idiot, or b. Speak about one of the books you love.

Rolling your shoulders, spine straight, you take a deep breath. "I—"

Almost like being pulled by some magnetic force, your eyes find Fives.

You're hit with a wave of confidence. It drowns you in depths of courage. And with reckless abandon, you find yourself succumbing to it.

You don't give two thoughts to what you're about to do.

Is it impulsive? Yes. Do you give a flying fuck? No.

The truth is, you're tired. So tired of being a coward. That this is something you will go through.

Leave the wound that is your heart open, and dig your fingers into it, pulling out all the love that you can before leaving it achy, raw and free for him to ransack through if he so wishes.

Might as well become utterly shameless in your confession, you conclude.

Keeping your gaze locked with his, you start, voice soft, sure and loud. You won't take a chance, he has to hear every single word.

"Somewhere, there must be a reality where you're mine. A place where there's neither you nor me, just our emotions."

Your legs shake. Heart giving a stutter. You push through with a feverish desperation. Five's looking at you.

"A place where dawn will rise from your eyes, where I'll sleep to the night of your embrace." A shaky exhale. Your vision blurs. Still, you push through because Five is looking at you.

"From your lips to mine, lay emotions unkissed," it's a confession. "The breeze says, wherever you are, so am I."

"I don't know where that place is," sobs underline your words, heard clearly by every ear. But you only care for him.

So long you have loved him from the shadows.

This is a confession in light.

"I know nothing. Nothing but I feel this truth, and the truth is that I'm in love with you."

..................................................................................

A/N :

Romanticising confession? Yes. But then again, confessions like these don't need to be romanticised.

Meanwhile, the teacher : 👁️👄👁️

Lmfao, Anyways, this one feels good tbh. And yes there's one more part.

Hope you guys enjoyed this.

Thankyou! ❤

I just Lewis' reaction when jos comes visit max and the pup? Perhaps he sees red when max collapses and just chases Jos out of his sight?

Oh plss!! Max's handmaidens being so confused when Max is suddenly trying to get out of bed and asking Lando and Charles to help him dress while his skin is ashy and pale and he is just swaying on his feet when a massager announces Jos is approaching.

Lewis in the throne room to greet Jos thinking Max.will stay in his chambers and rest with the pup as he deserves, but suddenly Max appears at his side, heavy makeup on his face to hide his tired and sickly complexion and he is refuses to meet Lewis's eyes when Lewis asks him if he is okay. Max holding their little pup and soothing them softly when Jos comes in and barges over immediately, scoffing when,he realises the pup is an Omega girl and telling Max he expected better.

Lewis growling and telling him to respect his child, because jos shouldn't forget his kingdom is much more powerful! Jos doesn't mention the pup again and just focuses all his attention on Max after that as they head foe a walk through the gardens on Jos's insistence. Lewis wanting to decline but Max nods and gets up, giving the princess to lando or Charles to hold but je barely makes it down the throne room before he collapses. Lewis rushing to his queen and being so worried but Jos judt scoffs and calls Max weak. Lewis forgetting all his diplomatic training then and growling at Jos, telling him to leave and never return and having his guards escort him out while Lewis carries Max back to his chambers, helping Lando and Charles get Max out of the corset dress he should have never worn and staying close until Max wakes 🥺

LITG S2 Colour Seasons

Summers (cool)

Lottie: Light Summer (we can see this executed perfectly in her hair dye options, and her lipstick. However black is too strong for her, it makes her a bit yellow-ish, but that just makes her "pop" more, which adds to the Gothic style)

Gary: True Summer (his hair is so yellow aka springy, his skin is so pink and purple, an his eyes are a vibrant bright blue... unrealistic design but I did my best to translate him to real life)

Bobby: Muted Summer (cool-neutral. The neutral tones come in with his season being a neighbor to soft autumn, he as some warmth but leans cool overall, and has an olive tone, low contrast)

Henrik: Light Summer

Arjun: Muted summer (his hair also has ashy tones)

Winters (cool)

Marisol: Deep Winter

Hope: Bright Winter (each color of her makeup actually compliments her, but it's just too many all at once)

Lucas: Clear winter (icey pastels King)

Carl: Clear Winter

Kassam: Bright Winter

Winters are easiest to spot for me,very distinct from the other seasons in thier electric and dramatic colours.

Autumn's (warm)

Priya: Deep Autumn (warm-neutral. Anything deep and rich. She can wear gold best, followed by rose gold- a deep autumn specialty, and even silver is it's not a very cold type)

Blake: Soft autumn (warm, low contrast, and can wear gold mainly, copper, metals and silver If they're brushed or patina finished. Her hair is a bit intense, so maybe she has a bit more warmth that leads her into true autumn...)

Noah: Deep Autumn- true neutral (I've struggled with him, true neutrals are rare irl, but based on the fact that he's rich, and can wear neutrals and navy like no on else I've settled on this or now.. he just has so much red undertones but also has medium contrast.. im not 100% satisfied, so any input would be appreciated)

Rocco: True Autumn

Elijah: Deep autumn (I don't have a quality screenshotnof him so this isn't confident, but he's warm-neutral, low contrast, and muted)

Springs (warm)

Hannah: Warm Spring

Chelsea: Light spring (her natural tan is very springy)

Jo: Soft Spring (neighboring the summer season, she has some coolness)

Shannon: Warm Spring

Rahim: Clear Spring (warm and bright, and he so happens to be blessed to wear violet... love that for him)

Elisa: Light Spring

Felix: Light Spring (he's wearing mostly summery colours, maybe to accommodate his dyed hair?)

Jakub: True Spring

Graham: True Spring (hes bright and his hair is warm.. I considered True Autumn.. do we really care about him? lol)

OK, my theory is that there are so many springs in litg because these colours are juicy, fresh, trendy, bright and eye catching. Which is perfect in a summery, hot setting like the villa.

In the colour season theory, things like overtone (freckles, tanning VS burning, and blushing, eye colour) aren't indicators of a specific season, however they can give clues to a person's place on the dial within thier base season: Soft, bright, true, Muted, deep, clear.

This art style doesn't add eye texture or patterns-probably due to size, space and distance-but those are the best tell-tale of someone's season, so obviously I couldn't work with that.

Anyways, it was fun to do this, I find it interesting how some characters don't always wear their best colours, just like real people :) overall, thier chosen clothes give insight into thier personalities! I'd love any feedback or corrections from anyone who's also into this x

This is so, so good! I'm in awe, anon 🤍

Absolutely loved reading the analysis for the different characters, and I'm definitely trusting your judgement on this one. For people not familiar with all this, here's a reference photo for you. It doesn't match the categories you mentioned perfectly, but I think it's close enough:

Noah is definitely tricky, as he does wear deep blues and neutrals and warm colours well (at least in my mind). We love complex characters though, even if it's "just" about colours 😌 My ideal colours for him are definitely these, but I'm not sure which category they fit in:

#this is so interesting anon! #I'd love it if others want to chime in as well #litg s2 #love island the game #litg #ask #litg everyone

Can you do an part 5 for The New Baby where Katherine and Klaus and Hayley and Kol and Davina come down when Jeremy and 5 month pregnant Jessica stop bye. Jessica wants to get know Asher who is making it difficult. Asher gets close to Davina and Hayley and Katherine and he breaks down saying it was his fault his mom dead and he can't ever forgive himself and Jayleen should hate him.

Jeremy over hears Asher and goes to Klaus and Damon for advice on Asher and Klaus and Damon say " Take Asher to a important place for you and the reader ( Passed Away.)

Next day

Jeremy drags Asher to the woods and Asher says " If your gonna kill me make it quick and hide it very good because Jay and Hope are tribrids and Lizzie and Jo are really good witches and oh Klaus and Hayley and Granny Kat will be mad." Jeremy looks at Asher and says " You see that tree that's where I met your mom and she had beautiful Blonde hair and these Green eyes and the Mikaelson Smirk. Then this is also the place that she told me we are gonna have twins and where we chose your names Asher because it means Happy and Blessed and Conrad means Brave Counsel and Jayleen means Beautiful Jaybird we went through so many baby name books before we found your names BTW Damon is the one to suggest Asher.

Asher cries and says " Be happy with Jessica and thing 3 just don't leave Jay it is to late for us but I won't be a dick." Asher speeds away and steals his passport and flies to Wales and compell a flat and he cries for his mom.

Next day Asher and Jay's 17th birthday

Jay goes into Ashs room and finds it empty and sees a note with her name

Dear Jay,

Look out for Hope and Lizzie and Jo for me and look out for yourself but I am leaving and not returning for a while and it is okay to get to know Jessica but I can't deal right now and I spelled myself to be hidden so bye baby sister.

Ashy Boo

Jay falls to the floor crying and screams for Damon and Stefan who rush in and ask what's wrong and she says " Ash is gone some where." Damon looks at Bonnie and Hope and Freya and asks " Can you Witchy way find him." They nod but can't find him and Katherine gets in idea and says " Damon didn't ( Reader R.I.P ) talk about taking Jay and Asher to Wales for their 16th Birthday." Damon nods and glares at Jeremy and says " This is all your fault and I am sick of covering for you." Damon storms out and he goes to your grave and says " I swore to your mom Katherine I would protect you and I love you and miss you and I love Asher and Jay they will have an happy life."

I actually intended to leave that story where it was, I was super happy with the that ending as it is.

[kingkatsuki]

Hey, Jo, here for part to of my blabbing of Viking Katsuki!

The story doesn’t allow for his quirk, so, he is basically a regular Viking, and though Katsuki is a Japanese name, he will be keeping it, because then the story would be like an original work otherwise, you know? Besides that, his title would be something like “Katsuki, The Brave One” or  “Katsuki, the son of Masaru,” you get the idea right? Anyway, I thought of this up during my own research that I was doing on Vikings, because I am also an original author.

So, in the plot of the story, Katsuki is raised to be an excellent fighter, he is often seen in battles with a shield and an axe as his weapons of choice though sometimes he is seen with dual weapons. But when he is sixteen, his clan, as well as his father suffer a bitter lose at the hands of their enemies. Following this, his father dies, allowing for his mother to take control of the clan. But he takes a small group of his mothers army and heads for the sea, where he sails to the land that his father had been killed on. Katsuki’s attempts to bring honor to his father, who had died without holding a weapon.

During his time at an unknown land, he comes across another clan that is also facing a heavy loss. This particular clan, is known for their attachment to the mythical creatures, such as dragons, elves and etc. Eijiro The Slayer of Men (Kirishima), befriends the ashy blonde and their clan fight along each other, in hopes of bringing honor to their dead, and making sure the killer of Katsuki’s father is killed. Of course, along the way they fall in love with foreign women, and settle down after they established themselves after the great battles.

I am sort of mirroring real history, I was thinking when the Vikings were attacking Ireland back in the day. But I’ll have to do some more work before anything is settled on. My DMs are always open to suggestions. Though the plot above is incomplete so, things could/will change with time. Imagine Katsuki looking at you like this, during a raid.

Ahhh it sounds like you have an awesome premise already! I love the idea of him finding Kirishima and joining their clans to fight together🥺

We realize some are on hiatus, so those pairs will be granted more time, but things should be at least started this month. You can have the pairs do anything you like! Just reach out to your writing partner and you can come up with something for them all to do. Under the cut, you'll find the pairs. If anyone drops a character and we accept more, we'll edit things up, but for now, this is the list!

[kanazawa-division]

“The dead cannot cry out for justice. It is a duty of the living to do so for them.”

Introduction

Joey Kurusu, also known as Joker in Rap Battles, is a Homicide Detective for the Kanazawa Police Department that’s known for solving the most gruesome cases despite his young age. He joined the DRB after making the connection that the serial killer(s) might be related to his sister’s murder and convinced his co-worker and colleague, Wataru Sasaki, to let him join his team.

Joey is a young man in his early 20s and is taller than average with a slim build. His skin is pale but with a slight tan and his medium ashy blonde hair is shoulder length and messy, his eyes are a bright lavender and are hidden behind a pair of black framed glasses. Spreading across his nose are light freckles.

Joey usually wears a black undershirt, a white button long sleeved shirt with the first two buttons undone, a beige vest with a dark blue outline and a navy blue blazer left unbuttoned. He also wears black dress pants and dark brown loafers, on his neck is a black skinny choker with a small shield pendant dangling from it.

When he’s not on the job, Joey swaps his outfit for something more casual. He wears a white long sleeved shirt with dark blue stripes, dark blue skinny jeans, and black converse shoes. He still wears his choker and pendant.

Hypnosis Microphone

Joey’s Microphone takes the form of a handheld microphone, the housing is black with red stripes and the area below the windscreen has a black and red jester’s collar encircling it with the golden bells facing up.

His Speaker takes the form of three large playing cards; the Queen of Hearts, the King of Spades, and the Joker card. The Queen regally sits on her throne with a speaker on her lap, The King stands while holding up a speaker, and The Joker looks like he’s nearly being crushed by the speaker he’s barely carrying on his back.

His rap ability, Jester’s Gambit, allows him to use different abilities at random whether it’s an offense, defense, or healing ability. Downside is that it damages him significantly every time he uses it, if careless, it could become lethal.

Joey raps about how even though the world is so messed up, you can still have fun. That you shouldn’t let the toxicity and rot of this shit filled world snuff out your light, if you’re backed into a corner, just say “fuck it” and do what you want. He also raps about how he speaks for the dead and will get justice for his sister by taking down her killer.

Personality

Joey is easy-going and very laidback, he’s a very “go with the flow” kind of guy and doesn’t let the little things bother him. Despite his rather gruesome occupation, he’s quite cheerful and tends to make light of a situation with jokes…which are rather morbid. Joey is quite intelligent, his intuition is unmatched and he can be quite good at discovering patterns and reading people which is why he’s so good at his job, however, while he does take his occupation seriously, it doesn’t stop him from being optimistic.

Joey is also a nerd, he loves playing video games and is surprisingly good at them. He also has a strange fascination with the paranormal and death, not at all bothered with the macabre and even seems to enjoy it, it honestly freaks some people out.

Like his teammates, Joey doesn’t like criminals and has no problem helping officers putting them in the slammer. However, unlike them, Joey understands that not everyone is born a criminal and that there situations that push people to the brink or feel like they have no other choice.

Background

Coming Soon.

Trivia

Joey’s favorite video game genre is Fantasy RPGs.

His hatred for true crime podcasts started when the host falsified the story of a case he was doing and slandered him.

He almost sent someone to the hospital when they disrespected fairy bread in front of him.

Joey used to suffer from a pretty bad gambling addiction in his teen years but thankfully later recovered.

" Fuck the gods, and for the matter, fuck dad too. He doesn't give a shit about us unless our lives are on the line and expects us to step in when his is ? " Johanna grabbed the nearest thing and threw it out the cabin window. Finnick was probably already at the tree waiting for her to leave but she couldn't go. Not yet. Not until she learned her baby sister was going to be safe. " And if you really wanna go and play hero just promise me you won't die for their fucking cause. He's not worth dying for, especially not you. " / @furys-burn

❛ Don't act like you know what's best for me. ❜

It's not Jo's fault, it really fucking isn't. It's not her fault she just missed those Apollo brats and Michael Yew's stupid face -- it's not her fault that they couldn't yield, that they didn't know what was best for them. It wasn't her fault that no one else could see what was really happening -- but gods she was TIRED of feeling like the fucking villain and now she chafes at Jo's attempt to -- to -- act like they really are family.

Clarisse curls her fingers into her palm until it feels like the skin will break.

❛ It's not about dad, so relax. The whole sweet and caring thing really isn't us. ❜ Clarisse watches where the little whetstone had gone sailing through the window, and wishes it had been closed so she could hear the glass shatter. Now that would be cathartic. Something the stupid Apollo brats would never deign to do because how could they play the victim in the face of Big Bad Clarisse ? Who just wants what's rightfully hers after a lifetime of trying to be a hero.

If Jo thinks that she's biting at the bit to go save their asses at this point, then there really is nothing to worry about.

Clarisse laughs. It's a bitter, choked off thing. She turns away, the muscle in her jaw flaring a little. Like she'd die for dad of all people. And yeah, sure, she's going to ignore how much she'd do just that a few years ago -- a few months ago. Even the thought of Ares' rage at her losing ownership of the stupid chariot doesn't spark that same -- competitiveness in her. -- Ah, shit, call it what is you coward: fear.

❛ I'm not going anywhere. ❜ She didn't realize she had made a decision until it leaves her lips and it feels right. Clarisse has to turn away from Jo, wrapping her arms around herself. ❛ I'm staying with Silena. She doesn't need to be there. ❜ She doesn't need to fight for the losers that killed Beckendorf. Bitterness creeps up her throat, ashy and burning. ❛ Go. I'm sure your boy is getting tired of waiting. Don't worry -- good ol' Clarisse is retired. Good luck out there. ❜

Let it all fall apart. Let her give up everything. Maybe when all this is done, Ares will leave her alone and she can leave the whole damn camp behind.

//This post touches on subject matter that includes the following: Mentions of cancer and death. I’m putting it under the cut due to such matters. This is merely a slight vent post. Might be deleted at a later date.

It just came to my attention that Bi/ll/y Kam/etz passed away from stage IV colon cancer, something that he was diagnosed with nearly a month and a half ago. His passing occurred on June 9th. He was a voice actor known for roles such as: Taku/to Mar/u/ki, Nao/fumi Iwa/tan/i, Jo/su/ke Hig/ashi/kata, Ferdin/and V/o/n Ae/gir, etc. I’m really shell shocked than anything... While I know the chances of survival in his case were more or less unknown, it still has left me shocked and extremely saddened at his passing...

My heart goes out to those around him be it his family, colleagues, friends, and even fans. He was one of my favorite vo/ice act/ors. My thoughts are especially with his family. I’m sorry for this being much shorter than I intended but... I’m just shocked. Very shocked. Like with Mi/ur/a, this will likely hit me like a truck in a few days give or take. I don’t really have time to dwell in my own feelings as I have to get through tomorrow’s work day, but... I still wanted to write this.

"Kinky..." (for lucifer from jo) - @jadesigners

Inbox me; "Kinky…" and I'll generate a number between 1 - 70. 32. Your muse watches mine getting undressed.

He'd come in to try on some of the clothes Jo tailored for him. Now, he's standing in one of her dressing rooms at her boutique, taking off his clothes bit by bit. Even though she's still present, he doesn't seem to mind stripping in front of her, letting his body—arms and legs stained an ashy gray from the shoulders and hips downward, and legs ending in smooth small cloven hooves—be exposed for her to view.

Gunmen kill four in fresh Plateau attacks

A 50-year-old farmer in Plateau State, Gawan Zhwe, has been killed by gunmen. It was gathered that Zhwe was killed in his house alongside two others in Nkienzha village, Bassa Local Government Area of the state on Sunday. A community leader in the area, Nuhu Bitrus, confirmed this to our correspondent in Jos on Monday. Bitrus said before the deaths of the three persons, the gunmen had earlier attacked another villager, killing him on the spot. He said, “Nkienzha village came under gunmen attack last night (Sunday). Those killed during the attack on Sunday were Gawan Zhwe, who is over 50 years old; Lydia Yakubu, over 48 years and Nuhu Yakubu, 23 years. “The attackers also injured two others including Zhime Yakubu and Monday Yakubu. But before the attack last night which led to the death of the three persons, the attackers had killed another villager, Musa Wolo, the previous day. “So in all, we have four persons that were killed and they have just been buried a while ago. Even the Commander of Sector 3 of Operation Safe Haven was present when the victims were buried ” The Irigwe Development Association, an umbrella body of the ethnic nationality in the local government condemned the renewed attacks. In a statement issued on Monday by its National Publicity Secretary, Davidson Malison, the association described the attacks as unacceptable and called on the security agents to fish out the perpetrators wherever they might be hiding. “The leadership of Rigwe Nation through the Traditional Council and the Development Association have described the resurgence of attacks and killing as callous and barbaric and cautioned the perpetrators to immediately put a halt on the mayhem being unleashed in the land. “While sympathising and condoling with the nation, the paramount ruler of Rigwe Nation, the Brra Nggwe Rigwe, HRH Rev Ronku Aka (retd) and the IDA outgoing National President, Prince Amb Robert Ashi with concern and unsmiling faces drew the attention of the security agencies and insisted that the perpetrators must not be allowed to continue roaming the street like good people but immediately be apprehended and made to face the wrath of the law. “We equally call on the constituted authorities to do the needful to restore normalcy in the land so that we can continue our activities without hitches and glitches,” the statement read.

forever rain

Day 3. July 25, 2022. Evening. Music room. 

Meeting Jo had calmed David’s nerves when he needed it, but also informed him more about all that was available to him at the rehabilitation center. He had walked through his tour of the facility like a ghost, absorbing zero information. Now, he was relieved to be walking into the little music room because it was as close to his studio as he could get for the time being. 

He had lyrics to set to music; after he had told Jo that he didn’t know what to say at a group meeting, the thoughts poured out of him and into his notebook that same night. David was able to get into the music room the next day, so he was sure to use all of the time he had at the piano. He sat down in front of the keyboard propping his songwriting notebook in front of him. He was fumbling around on the keys until he finally found the right tone and he tried to sing the lyrics at first. The majority of them had came out in Korean, so he kept it that way. Something still felt off about how he was articulating the lyrics by singing. 

He decided a different approach he hadn’t ever done before.

David, is there anything you would like to share with the group? he imagined a counselor asking him in his head, while sitting in that circle surrounded by other patients. 

He cleared his throat then and tried this time going through the lyrics in a soft, spoken rap. 

I wish it rains all day 'Cause I'd like someone to cry for me, yeah I wish it rains all day 'Cause then people wouldn’t stare at me, yeah

'Cause the umbrella would cover the sad face 'Cause in the rain people are busy minding themselves Gonna breathe a little slower 'Cause my life and my rap, they're usually too fast

Now everything goes back to its place My shadow's reflected on the sky I'm standing on the darkness Head down to my heels, yeah

He was liking it so far, nodding to himself as he continued to rap in Korean and English. 

Slow rap, slow jam, slow rain Everything slow Slow rap, slow jam, slow rain Everything slow

Forever rain 

He repeated the phrase for the chorus, knowing it was the title of the song then.

When it rains, I get a little feeling that I do have a friend Keeps knocking on my windows Asks me if I'm doing well And I answer, "I'm still a hostage of life" I don't live because I can't die But I'm chained to something

Just like you, if I could just knock on somewhere If I could kiss the whole world so hard Would someone welcome me, maybe embrace my weary body?

Please don't ask any questions But do keep pouring forever I'm not lonely when you're pouring Please stay by my side Wanna live in the ashy world I know that there's no forever

Slow rap, slow jam, slow rain Everything slow When it rains, it pours When it rains, it pours It pours (It pours, it pours)

After repeating the bridge and chorus again, that same imaginary voice returned in his head again: How insightful.. thank you for sharing with us.

“No problem,” David breathed, a tear from his eye hitting the keyboard without making another sound.
