INDIANA WOODWARD in NYCB's LA SOURCE La Source embodies charm, femininity, and coquetry. There is a certain sense of sophistication in the sense of a civilized social encounter with the audience. - VIOLETTE VERDY

@jezebelrisen ft. heart.
location: nycb fundraiser, hour two. they say their voice is synthetic. that's the gossip, that opal's throat was damaged in that accident years ago, that they (stoneage, maybe, just the boogeyman, the tell tale all catch term for people with deal with non-humans, that give cyborgs skin and working lungs and false memories) put false vocal chords in. the blonde has never listened, and is always quietly insulted by such a thing; a voice like that clearly couldn't be organic, couldn't come from her waifish form. that album she released when she was 15 sounded terrible. a voice couldn't mature, training couldn't be given. no! it had to be fake. opal thinks that after their performance, mics down, her and dove reduced to the simplest setting of live orchestra and the power of their vocal chords. they aren't looking for their singing partner right now, though, eyes surveying the crowds that stand with new unease. there is a tension, that something is now able to happen without it being caught on camera. a quick blade, a spiked drink, and nobody would be any the wiser. "- heart!" opal finds who they're looking for, friendly smile on painted lips. "surprised you're still here, lack of actual lighting seems to have put most people off,"

where: NYCB afterparty with: @rspsiren
It wasn't often that Nate was invited to a party. It sounded pathetic, didn't it? Probably, but either way, he was excited to be there. Being just a lowly nobody in comparison, he knew better than to attract attention to himself, preferring to mingle with his colleagues instead, and just generally have a good time. Besides, he didn't really need to be the center of attention for it; anything was fine enough as long as he was allowed to stay.
With all of the sponsors and adults gone, the younger staff members and a whole bunch of other people were left on their own. It didn't take a lot for the music to pick up almost immediately, with noise and joyful chaos surrounding everyone in the room. This reminded Nate of the darker times, so when he found himself down one shot after another, he wasn't even all that surprised, instead doing everything he could to focus on anything else. As he searched the crowd for something, anything, his eyes landed on a familiar face; well, as familiar as she could be. He knew the girl's name - Rylan Pratt- with her parents being so prominent with their support for NYCB, but Nate would've lied if he said he had really interacted with her before. That is, of course, if noticing how beautiful she was, how stunning her smile was, or how kind her eyes were, actually counted as interactions. "You're a creep," Nate mumbled to himself, scolding himself for looking at her for longer than a few seconds before finally looking away. Who was he to even allow himself to think about someone so far out of his league? Instead, he focused on the person next to him, not even resisting as he was dragged away to dance, even if his eyes kept returning back to the beautiful woman, more so out of wishful dreaming than anything else.

Pls tell me you're traveling somewhere FUN where you can ENJOY yourself
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m going to New York to see Phantom, Hadestown, and the ballet! I booked it after Phantom announced they were closing on Broadway, since it was my very first fandom. NYCB is also doing a classical series that includes Firebird, too, so I couldn’t resist getting an elegant dose of Vassa vibes. I have a couple of reservations for afternoon tea too. ☕️
I’ll also be doing some boring librarian stuff, but I’ll think it’s fun, so that’s all that matters, right?

Hi can you tell us anything about your current Larry WIP? Excited to see what you come up with :)
Hi love!
I'm currently working on a rivals to lovers AU set at the New York City Ballet called Arise, Fair Sun. Harry and Louis came up through the School of American Ballet together and they were always the top two in their class, and in Harry's view, they hated each other. (But did they REALLY?)
Louis was promoted to principal dancer very quickly and became an international sensation who has danced all over the world, most recently with the Royal Ballet in London. (I've loosely based his career trajectory on that of Ethan Stiefel who played Cooper Nielsen in the movie Center Stage) Harry had to pay his dues, taking a much more traditional career route before finally making principal dancer for NYCB.
They are cast opposite each other as Romeo and Juliet when newly appointed Artistic Director Liam Payne decides to shake up the establishment and recast classical ballets as queer love stories. Not only does Harry have to dance with his life-long nemesis, he has to do it dancing en pointe too, which will be historic for the ballet community.
Can Harry and Louis put their rivalry aside and learn to work together? You'll have to read to find out :-) And in the meantime you can search "Arise Fair Sun" on my blog and read all the snippets I've posted.

with: @kennedypratt​ where: Rylan’s apartment
To say that Nate was still spending every single day in Rylan’s apartment was an understatement. Rhett was there, and, most importantly, Rylan was there; he couldn’t imagine his life without the girl at this point. She was there for him no matter what, so, by being there for her, helping her around the place was the least that Nate could do. Not to mention, he simply loved spending time with the girl he loved more than anyone else in this world.
It was normal of him to stay around even when Rylan was away for work. He didn’t really have much to do, not when the restaurant was still shut, so Nate hung around, cleaning, preparing for their dances, or simply trying to live with himself. So when the doorbell rang, for a moment, he was confused. Who would be coming here? Did Rylan forget her keys? Surely, she would have texted him first. Or was her whole bag stolen? That made him worry, and Nate was quick to make his way to the door, only to be presented with a surprise he didn’t expect.
“Mr. Pratt?”
He had seen the man in the crowd when he was still dancing for NYCB. He had seen him around his daughter, the girl he was sleeping with, the girl he was secretly in love with.
“What are you doing here- sir?” And yet, Nate couldn’t play it smart.

where: NYCB after-hours with: @astridhansleyx
"Is it creepy to say that I was watching the practice today?" Nate questioned Astrid playfully as he moved to stand in front of the many mirrors surrounding the studio. It was only during times like these that he got to do it, that he got to imagine that he could one day be up there with the greats. He knew it would never happen, not after everything he had gone through - there was no way he would ever be that graceful - but at least he could dream. And watching Astrid there, doing everything so flawlessly, always left him so damn impressed. "I mean, don't answer that question." He added jokingly, a grin appearing on his face before he stood up straight, taking a deep breath. "But, look, I've been practicing! What do you think?" Nate asked excitedly before finally beginning to spin, wanting to show off everything he's been working towards lately.
