You Light The Skies Up Above Me - A QCard One-Shot - NSFW

“I’m afraid I’m too tired to be swinging from the stars tonight, my dear,” Picard warns with a small chuckle, remembering one of their more eventful evenings together fondly. Another part of his anatomy remembers that occasion with more than fondness. “Mmm,” Q hums, and Picard can feel the ghost of a smirk as he presses a kiss to the sensitive spot on his neck. “As fun as that would be, it wouldn’t be very relaxing now would it, Jean-Luc? No, I assure you, for what I have planned, all you need do is lay there and enjoy everything I do to you.”

Well, it looks like I’m crossing ‘write shameless smut’ off my Qcard bingo card…🙈

Listening to a podcast interview with the directors of Treasure Planet, and one of the most fascinating things is when they talk about how the '90s Disney animation climate was all about making these prestige animated films with stories that could have been done in live action (Hunchback, Pocahontas), and these guys fought to make films that could only be done (or at least be best done) with animation. Because it's kind of the inverse of their current philosophy of making everything live action even if it's a story that's better in animation. So anyway if the live-action Treasure Planet thing is really happening, it's like spitting in the face of this movie's intent.

#treasure planet #disney #also i may just have to keep this one in my back pocket for writing inspiration #because the way they talk about blending a classic story with their new take #and about how they try to distill the story down to its essence #like a caricature that keeps it simple and reveals the true heart of the story #is a lot like how i like to approach retellings #70-30 rule is a good term (that's what they used to describe their blend of past vs future aesthetic)#and thinking about that blend is esp helpful for the story i'm currently mulling over

What's the best comedy ever made and why is it Wooden Overcoats

#wooden overcoats #literally the people who created that show reached into my brain extracted the very essence of my sense of humour #and distilled it into a 4 season audio sitcom about undertakers #to this day it's the only podcast I've ever listened to in its entirety #(nothing personal I just find my attention wanders from podcasts a lot i lose the thread)#wooden overcoats though? have listened to it like 10 times in its entirety and am currently listening again #i should write more silly chapyard sometime #maybe even finish that spider au one of these days #mr. bees speaks #i tend to downplay how i sincerely think it's the Funniest Thing Ever Made when chatting to my brother #bc he was in an improv group with one of the producers/directors at uni and I think he would get legit weird and jealous about it sbshfhhdd

Ok the "which type of lovers is your fav" poll is technically not even finished but it's gotten me THINKING about romantic moments so here's another poll in the same flavor but more specific

ALSO: if you have a favorite example of one of these types of kisses (from any media!) share it! I want to know!!!

#book poll #writing poll #booklr #bookblr #writeblr #character poll #fanfiction #blorbo #romance #i know some of these can be one and the same type of kiss #but like whats the essence of the thing u like the most does that make sense

i've seen so many lyrics pulled from that new tswift album and genuinely none of them have ever rhymed. what is she doing. even the fake lyrics people come up with for her new album seem more like lyrics than the stuff she actually wrote

#.docx #it reminds me of my slam poetry from junior year. that is not a compliment #no rhyming no rhythm i was just putting words that aounded good down on paper but it lacked essence and cohesion #but i was also? 16. what is a 34 year old doing writing shit like this

Crazy Anthem is quite literally the perfect Crazy:B MV and, even more importantly, a perfect Rinne center. I don't think anything else could have possible encapsulated Rinne better. He might seem brash and uncaring but that's all surface-level things, the persona he allows people to see. This MV is very specifically about the version of Rinne he allows himself to be around his friends and loved ones, the kind of person that would do anything for them. Enstars has made it a point to show just how much Rinne is willing to sacrifice for Crazy:B, the lengths he has gone to ensure that his unit can continue to be happy and silly. I couldn't imagine a better MV to showcase that than what we got. Having an entire MV of fun times with Crazy:B? That's the most Rinne thing I've ever heard

#enstars #ensemble stars #i have so many thoughts and feelings about this mv #but it's mostly boiled down to incoherent screaming this is the closest to articulate i'm going to get #i could write an entire thesis on why this MV so perfectly captures the essence of crazy:b and rinne #these four have grown so much #they were just strangers at the start of !! and now they're a crazy little family

See You Out There - Q/Jean-Luc Picard

A featureless grey expanse stretches out before him. Drawing one last breath, he takes a step forward, honouring Q’s wish and not giving in to the temptation to look back at his husband one final time.

Q watches as his husband's form gently dissolves into a swirl of golden stardust, before the door slowly swings shut again. For the first time in millennia, he is alone, without the comforting presence of his husband's mind gently pressing against his own, and he feels tears roll down his face at the loss.

He allows himself one brief moment to acknowledge the pain, the emptiness he feels without the bright spark of his husband by his side, before locking the feelings away deep inside himself.

He doesn’t have time to mourn.

I love femlock but I think it's kind of boring to see all these characters get bishoujo-ified. you don't get it you can't just make them pretty girls you have to consider their canon gender expression beliefs about their own place in society overall character concept etc. except shidou making shidou a freaky femme lesbian is always correct

#bolo liveblogs #which tbh works BECAUSE it jives with the essence of Shidou As A Character but I digress #<- writing utterly incomprehensible posts

@fake-married-my-dead-fiance, I found another subtitle error.

I'd told you that I'd tell you if I remembered another.

So I had completely forgotten about this, even though at that time I'd been so angry at the translators. Okay so I was watching this old AoS edit, and I came across the scene in it.

So remember that time when Gilju tried to shift souls with Jang Uk. Obviously, he failed (courtesy of Jin Bu Yeon), but Mu Deok didn't know that. So she tries to wake Jang Uk in Gilju's body and when Jang Uk wakes up in his own body she tries to kill him thinking that it's Gilju.

So MuDeok's lines go:

"I may have been too weak to protect him from you," (And till here it's okay)

but I'll make sure to end your life." (See. This. This right here. This is WRONG. I don't like this.)

What Mudeok actually says is: "I won't let you remain alive in that body."

Which is what actually makes sense, don't you think?

Mudeok/Naksu wanting to kill anybody or telling someone she's going to kill them is really not something very surprising or grand. We all know how Naksu is, this doesn't require an explanation.

The grand thing here is not that she tells Gilju she's going to kill him. It's that she says that because he's in Jang Uk's body. Because she won't let Gilju be alive in Jang Uk's body.

Here she was, a soul shifter, in someone else's body, and to her knowledge the body owner's soul had been destroyed, and she had no qualms about it. She didn't think Alchemy of Souls to be wrong. At that time, she simply didn't want to run wild, and she wanted back her power.

Yet here she was telling another soul shifter, one who'd soul shifted with Jang Uk to get the exact same things that she wanted, that she was going to kill him. Killing Gilju at that moment was completely at odds with MuDeok's situation. Also in the literal sense because he was a well trained mage now in a tall, strong, healthy body who could easily overpower her. And yet she tells him that she's going to kill him.

But she's not going to kill him because he's a soul shifter or because he's a bad guy or because she thinks Alchemy of Souls or sorcery is wrong. She's going to kill him only because the person Gilju chose to shift souls with was her pupil.

"I may have been too weak to protect him from you, but I'll not let you remain alive in that body."

And Jang Uk knows all of these things, which is why he's taken aback.

"I didn't know you cared about Jang Uk that much."

#alchemy of souls #sometimes i think i should just watch shows without subtitles #these are simple things #why can't they just write a simple translation #oversimplifying things just loses the essence of the show #alchemy of souls: light and shadow #jang uk #naksu #mu deok #jang uk x naksu #lee jae wook #jung so min #go youn jung
