SNOOZE

⟡ C.STURNIOLO ⟡

IN WHICH-Y/n and bf!Chris are sharing airpods while "Snooze-SZA" starts playing and chris takes a line a lil to srs.. § eventual smut §

Y/n-Pink // Chris-Orange // Song- Blue // NSFW!

Hey its madi! i was listening to to snooze nd js kinda had an idea!

⟡•STURNSGIRL •⟡

It was late at night and me, Matt, Chris, and, Nick were on our way back home from a party of a friend of Nick's.

Nick was dead asleep in the car and Matt was too drunk to drive so he was also slumped in the back with Nick which led me to have to drive.

It was 2:08 am and I was listening to SZA's "SOS" album when I saw Chris with nothing to do.

"Hey Chris, do you want my other AirPod?" I whispered so that I wouldn't wake up Matt or Nick.

"Yesss thank youu" he says taking the airpod out of its case and into his ear.

The song "Low" had just ended and "Snooze" played next. "I touch that fire for you. I do that 3, 4 times again I'd testify for you" The song plays as I lose my focus around and get lost in my thoughts.

CHRIS'S POV

I always deep think about the music Y/n listens too. Does it have a meaning? does she relate to it? Does she want something the song says?

I alwasy listen closley to the lyrics maybe so that i could bring the song to life. i listened to the song and wondered but instead of keeping it in my thought i ask her.

"Hey ma, why do you like this song?" i ask noticing i snap her out her trance in her thoughts.

"it remind me of us, or you" she says looking at me and back on the road

i nod my head and smile turning back to my side and listen to the lyrics closer.

"I don't got nobody, just with you right now Tell the truth, I look better under you" the song plays.

i look over at y/n and back. if this song reminds her of me does that mean she wants to be under me? with that i already has plans for when we got home.

Y/N'S POV

We had finally made it home about an hour later. I pull up in the driveway and unbuckle my seatbelt looking back at matt and nick then back at chris.

"I got Matt you just wake up nick. im gonna have to take care of matt and put him to bed." i say due to the fact matt is completely wasted and need to be taken care of the right way.

I get out the car while chris wakes nick up and i slowly wake matt up

"Hey Matt we are home can you stand up for me?" i say in a soft tone making sure to not be any louder which could casue him a worse headache that what he probably already has.

I grab both his hands as he sits up and slowly gets both his feet out before fully getting out. chris and nick were already in the house at this point so i had closed the car door and walked inside with matts arm around my shoulder so he could walk. I sit him down on the bench by the front door and take his shoes off as well as mine and lead him upstairs to his room

"Okay matt ill be right back. change into your pyjamas and laydown." i say leaving him in his room as i walk out to go downstairs and get things to help him.

I get downstairs to see chris leaning on the kitchen counter on his phone looking up to see me

"Hey princess" he says walking up to me as i walk into the kitchen

"Hey baby" i say as he wraps his arms around my wait looking down at me pecking my forehead before i lazily lay my head on his chest for a minute before pulling away gently.

"i need to get some things for matt can you help?" i ask going in the pantry to get some chicken soup for matt

"Yes mamas what do you need" he says

"can you grab that light blue cloth and heat it up for 3 minutes and get matt 2 bottles of water?" i ask pouring the soup into a pot over the stove

"okay sweetheart" he says grabbing the heating cloth and warming it up while getting the bottles of water and placing them on the counter waiting for the cloth to warm up.

After about 10 minutes chris had already taken up the things i needed him too like the cloth,water,advil and,pain killers. All i needed was to give the soup which was now done. I pour the soup into a bowl and grab a spoon before taking it upstairs to matt. i enter his room to see chris sitting on the edge of the bed next to him

"Okay sit up slowly matt." i tell him as he does so that way i can place the soup on his lap.

"okay eat this, then take 2 advils and finish both waters then you can go to bed." i tell him as i put his light remote next to him and tell chris to leave him be as we walk out and close the door behind us.

"You would be such a great mom mamas." chris says as we enter his room.

"really? thanks baby" i say smiling

'Hey ma remember how we were listening to music earlier in the car? and the song you said reminded you of me?" chris says sitting on the edge of the bed signallig for me to come sit on his lap.

"oh yeahh snooze by sza. why?" i ask sitting on his lap facing him.

"well because imma make one line in particullar happen." he says and with out even ebing able to say another word he flips me over under him kissing my neck up to my mouth and we start to make out. his hand roaming my body up and down lifting my crop top up and my skirt down and as soon as that i knew what line he was talking about.

he takes off his pants and his shirt and i could already see how hard he was. he wastes no time and rips my panties off throwing them somehwere in his room and rubs his fingers in between my fold slowly and softly up and down. i let out soft moans with every movement he makes which only makes me more desperate bucking my hips up with his touch.

"Chris please..just do it."

he knows what im asking for so he does exactly what i ask." he started with one finger curling it up and in and out adding a second one moving quicker and quicker with each time he pulled out.

"mmph chris" i whimper out as he moves his fingers quicker and quicker

"Ch..Chris im gonna cum please." i beg as he slows down and pulls his fingers out

"not yet ma i want you to cum on my dick." he says pulling his boxers down while i take my bra off.

"your so fucking beautiful ma." he breaths out while he palms himself right before he starts to line his tip up with my enterance and slowly enters me.

"ohh fuckkk" he huffs out moving in and out slowly

"Chris f-faster." i moan out as he starts to move quicker and quicker pumping in and out of me at an unreal pace hitting my G-spot repeadly causing me to let out the loudest moans.

"Mmh chris im gonna c-cum" i say clawing into his back

"yes ma cum. cum all over my cock like a good girl" he says as i clench around him and we both release in and on eachother with me moaning and chris letting out the hottest groans.

"ugh fuck mmph good girl." he says.

he pulls out while his liquids drip out of me he picks me up and takes me to the bathroom to clean us up.

he sits me on the counter while he turns the shower on and lets the water run.

"I love you Princess" he says softly placing a kiss on my forhead.

Taeyeon Scenario: Meeting up after breaking up and getting back together

Anonymous said: “hiii! just saw you write for snsd and i wanted to request something with taeyeon, cause i think there's no much recent content to read of her. i was thinking maybe something with angst but a fluff ending, maybe they are in love but they're on a difficult moment as individuals so they decide on giving up on each other, but in the end they find each other when already healed and everything is beautiful and wholesome”

a/n: oh i totally agree, we need waaayyy more taeyeon content! i feel like it’s definitely gone down in popularity :( but i guess i gotta write it myself 😤 i love this prompt too, angst is actually one of my favorite genres bc i’m mentally ill. i hope you like it 💗💗💗

TW: light cursing, angst but it ends cutely

——————

It was around ten o’clock at night, and you were roaming the city streets exhausted and hungry. You couldn’t be more happy that you finally had your dream job, but you’d be lying if you said the hours weren’t killing you. Still, you were strong and weren’t going to give up anytime soon, you thought to yourself. Finally, you caught a glimpse of your favorite convenience store. It had the best instant ramen and beer, perfect for a late night dinner for one.

You entered the shop, waving to the cashier who knew you as a regular. You headed straight to the aisle with the ramen, but stopped in your tracks as you saw the shelf. It was completely empty!

“Damnit…” you cursed under your breath, shoving your hands in the pockets of your coat. “Guess I’ll have to find something else to eat for dinner.”

“You still haven’t given up on that ramen, huh?” a familiar voice said behind you. You immediately flipped around to see who it was, and your breath hitched in your throat. It was Taeyeon, your ex girlfriend.

She let out a tiny giggle at the look on your face. She couldn’t blame you though. You guys hadn’t seen each other in person since you broke up a few months ago.

Kim Taeyeon was the one that got away. She was your dream girl, and everything about her was perfect. Everything except the timing of your relationship. You both had commitments to your jobs that you felt you had to honor above all else, and it created such a huge distance between you. One day you woke up and felt like strangers, and came to the mutual decision that the two of you weren’t working out. It didn’t make it hurt any less, you were still madly in love with her. You’d had flings since the break up, but no one could ever measure up to her.

“Tae!” you exclaimed finally, shaking your head in disbelief. You reached out to give her a quick hug, which she gladly accepted. You were still on good terms and texted each other from time to time, so it wasn’t too awkward to share the small embrace. “Oh my gosh, how have you been? You look great by the way.”

She giggled, flipping her dark locks over her shoulder. She really did look pretty in her white blouse and two toned jeans. She looked good in everything, but you always loved when she wore simpler clothing because it let her true beauty shine through.

“I’ve been doing well! This last album was actually my best selling one yet, the fans all really liked it.” she blushed.

“I know I did. It was a great album, you should be very proud of that award you got.” you told her.

She smiled and dropped her jaw open dramatically. “You mean you watched the awards show? And you listened to the album too?”

“Well of course! I was there for half the writing process! I had to see it to fruition!” you exclaimed, putting your hands on your hips.

She laughed loudly, and you felt something break inside of you. You realized you missed hearing that noise. You actually missed almost everything about her.

“Well how about you? You were almost done with training when we…” she stopped, trailing off awkwardly from not knowing how to end the sentence.

You gave her a grin and decided to help her out. “When we broke up? Yeah I um… well, I got the job.”

Her mouth dropped open again, this time in genuine surprise. “Oh my gosh Y/N are you serious? That’s amazing, I’m so proud of you! Congratulations!” She leaned in and gave you another hug, this one far warmer and tighter than the last. You squinted your eyes at the feeling of her holding you again, not wanting to indulge in it too much.

You pulled back, clearing your throat awkwardly. “Well, I should get going. I have to figure out what I’m eating for dinner.”

“Hey, I was actually here for the same reason. Would you like to get dinner together? It’d be a nice chance to catch up…” she asked, rubbing the back of her neck nervously. She was looking at you with such a hopeful flint in her eyes, and when you saw her lips curl up in that adorable half smile, you were helpless.

“Yeah, I’d like that.”

—————

Now it was around midnight, and you were both at an outdoor food eating fried chicken and drinking beer, which you got from the convenience store two hours ago. It was one of your favorite places to go on dates on the middle of your hectic schedules back when you were together, so you decided to visit it for nostalgia’s sake.

It was so easy to fall back into that same old rhythm with Taeyeon. She was so easy to talk to, so familiar. You knew so much about each other already that things were just so comfortable. There wasn’t any testing of waters or pressure of relationships, it was just enjoyable. You hadn’t even realized that you’d been sitting and talking for so long until you noticed the food stall packing up.

“Oh man, I guess we better get going before they kick us out.” Taeyeon chuckled, pushing in her chair.

You nodded, grabbing your jacket from off the table. “We should. Come on, I’ll walk you home.”

“Oh you don’t have to do that!” she reassured you, waving her hand. Maybe it was the beer, but you could’ve sworn you saw a pink blush creeping up her cheeks at the thought.

“It’s okay, I know how much you hate walking alone at night.” you told her. “Besides, I live just a few streets down, we’d be walking the same way anyway.”

She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear before following behind you. “Okay, if you insist.” and smiled.

On the way home, a cold breeze hit you, and you both immediately shuddered. As if on instinct, you untied your jacket from around your waist and t it over her shoulders.

“Y/N…” she chuckled, tucking herself further into it. “You’re making this difficult for me.”

“Making what difficult?” you asked stupidly, shoving your fists in the pockets of your sweatpants.

She rolled her eyes and laughed once more before looking over at you. “Trying to pretend like I’m not still in love with you.”

You expected yourself to give more of a reaction, but for some reason, you just kept on walking, staring at the ground. You couldn’t think of anything to say, so you didn’t say anything. Taeyeon stopped in her tracks, and you turned around to face her.

“What’s wrong?” you asked with a poker face.

“Please tell me you’re not over me.” she demanded, arms clutching her sides desperately. “Please tell me I’m not the only one who still wants us to be together?”

You stood there in shock for a moment, letting your lips part slightly. “Taeyeon, I didn’t know you still wanted to be with me. I thought we were done for good.”

“I thought so too...” she began, tightening her grip on her jacket, looking anywhere but your eyes. “But… I can’t stop thinking about you. I know we’re both committed to our careers, and I know I can’t trust myself around you, and I know things didn’t work out before but…. I don’t want to be with anyone else but you!” she confessed, stepping forward a bit as she finally met your gaze.

You sighed, brushing your hair out of your face. “Taeyeon…. how can you do this…”

“Do what? Love you? It’s the easiest thing in the world.”

“No, I mean how can you just show up out of the blue after I’ve spent months trying to forget about you, telling myself that I did what was best for both of us by ending things, lying to myself about how much I missed you, and get me all confused by telling me you still love me?” you snapped, getting frustrated at the well of feelings that had been tipping over inside you. You didn’t mean to raise your voice, but it kind of got away from you in the heat of the moment.

“Are you saying you don’t still love me?” she asked softly after a moment of silence, tears prickling at the surface of her brown eyes.

You scoffed with a frustrated laugh, putting your head in your hands. “Oh my gosh Taeyeon, of course I still love you! I never stopped! You’ve literally been the only thing on my mind at every moment of everyday!”

“Then why can’t we be together?” she pleaded, taking a step forward challengingly.

“Because it didn’t work, Taeyeon.” you declared, finally letting a few angry tears fall. “We’re both too busy and couldn’t give one another the relationship we deserved.”

“What we deserve is each other!” she cried out, practically sobbing now. No matter how mad she made you, you would always hate seeing he cry. “I was never happier than when I was with you! I thought succeeding at my job would make me happier but it doesn’t. It all means nothing if I don’t have you to share it with!”

You looked at each other desperately as both of your tears fell to the pavement, and at that moment you finally understood each other. Right now, sharing this gaze, was the most intimate moment you had ever shared. At last, you knew how one another felt.

You took a few short, quick strides over to her, then yanked her into an embrace. You held onto her so tightly, as if she would disappear at any given moment. You buried your head into her neck, letting the last of your tears fall before pulling back to look at her.

“I’m so glad you’re back.” you confessed, wiping one of her remaining tears away with your thumb.

She laughed through the tears, then put her arms up behind your neck. “I promise, we’ll make it work this time. I’ll take time off work to spend it with you.”

“Same here.” you agreed, nodding your head with a smile. “I lost you once, and I’m not gonna lose you again.”

She looked at you with such unbridled adoration, glassy eyes shining even brighter than the moon above you, and before you knew it, your faces were just centimeters apart. You closed the gap slowly, pressing your lips to hers softly. God, you missed this so much. You would never, ever grow tired of kissing her. The two of you just seemed to mold together so well.

She pulled back to breathe, forehead still pressed against yours. “Come on, let’s get to my place. I think we have lots to talk about.”

new joe podcast just dropped, so here are some fun tidbits. as always i recommend listening for urself but if you dont have the time heres the highlights reel:

it wasnt hard for joe to be honest in writing the book, cause he describes himself as having "no filter" lol

the hosts asked if he talked to scott ian about the....Moment in the book before it was released (i won't spoil it for those who haven't read it; if you have, you probably know the one) and joe says he did not because "guys are GREAT at emotions."

they did talk about it after scott texted him about it. and sent joe a picture of him on a red carpet with a monkey on his back and joe could not tell if he was being serious dlkfldjflkd

the hosts compliment joe on his hair. joe says he's not likely to go bald so that's nice. he says one of his kids likes to put bows in his hair <3

predictably he's asked if fall out boy have anything in the works currently, to which joe replies, "we're always passing stuff around...like illnesses. but also creative stuff. we're not working on anything specific, we're just - everybody is in family mode or if they have other projects outside of the band they're focusing on that."

"but we will get the literal band back together. i'm sure we'll do more next year. probably not a lot this year."

the hosts ask what the rest of the band thought about the book. joe says they got an early manuscript and he got a bunch of thumbs up emojis in response. he says "one of the members" definitely read some or most of the manuscript, maybe all of it, but he doesn't know about the others (he does not name any names lol)

"i'm not trying to besmirch albums of the past. i love a lot of the stuff that we did after our hiatus, i love the experimentation, the ways in which we used sampling, and co-writes brought out interesting stuff that would've never come out otherwise. and we've had additional hit songs because of that and it's prolonged our career, so no, i'm very happy with all of that."

it'd be fun to "go back to basics, but not in a basic way." if they do a guitar album again he doesn't just wanna do cork tree but more of it. he said that one album represents a moment in time that's since passed.

the hosts asked what his wife thought of the book. he said that she said "it's great!" and didn't clarify. (she DID like it, he just had to get details from a mutual friend lmao)

"the axe" (six-issue comic series he wrote with brian posehn for heavy metal comics) WILL be getting a trade paperback version with all six issues, and he said it'll come either late this year or early next year!

he is also working on something for image comics and is currently developing a show for a network, but isn't sure where that's going to go. he basically always has a lot of things going on at once.

overall he's pleased with the response to the book. it has been an exposing experience and he instinctively wants to shy away but he hasn't gotten a bunch of hate for it. he's happy if anyone liked it!

#fall out boy #joe trohman #*making poasts #if they're working on new music they are lOCKED DOWN LIKE VAULTS ABOUT IT lmao #which is characteristic for them #but this is a sweet listen. its only 30 mins so i recommend. joes a lovely speaker.

Problems

Nina's had a rough day. Maggie reminds her she's not alone.

Rated T - WC: 1935 - CW: mild swearing - [ AO3 ] - Featured album - Nina Simone

Stifling a yawn, Nina pretended not to listen to the granny berating the shop clerk three people ahead of her in the grocer’s queue. Apparently it was double coupon-spin on your head day and the poor dear checking had missed one. Three minutes into her tirade, the old dear had figured out the missing coupon was still in her own hand.

Once that was resolved, the line progressed quickly and, less than five minutes later, Nina found herself face-to-face with Annette, Lindsay’s old friend from uni. Well, she’d started as just Lindsay’s friend but the two of them had grown close and Nina had long considered Annette her friend, too.

Between the battling demons—real and in her mind—and it taking everything she had to get up and on her feet again, she hadn’t spoken with Annette since before her and Lindsay had finally split. It had now been a few weeks and reaching out to old friends hadn’t gotten any easier. Not that anyone from her old life had reached out to contact her, either .

“Alright there, Annie?” Nina nodded, hoping her smile didn’t betray the twinge in her belly.

Annette’s returning smile was polite. And icy.

“Find everything?” she asked, eyes down as she continued to scan the milk and sugar on the conveyor belt.

Nina nodded, smile pressed on her face until it hurt. “Definitely, thanks,” she managed and set the rest of her attention to pressing buttons on the card terminal. Eventually, though, the conveyor belt was faster and Annette leaned back, tapping the till as she waited for Nina to finish paying. “Sorry,” Nina muttered, trying for another smile.

Annette shrugged.

“You know I’ve been meaning to ring you up,” Nina glanced up, waiting for the card terminal to tell her she could remove her card. “It’d be good to… catch up? Maybe after work tonight?”

“Not necessary,” Annette frowned. “Lindsay caught me up just fine.”

“Ah. I see.” Nina didn’t quite know what to do with her hands so she started bagging the milks. “I understand.” She didn’t, but… Bags full, perhaps even a little overfull with the extra oatmilk she’d picked up, she hooked one strap on each shoulder and fled from the checkstand.

“Nina, wait!” Annette called after her and she turned, face warming. Nina grinned and met her old friend’s eyes.

But Annette was still frowning. “Your card,” she said after a long moment and looked pointedly at the little beeping terminal.

“Right. Thanks.” Nina switched both bags to one shoulder, snagged her card and dashed out the doors.

And right into Maggie.

Too late, Nina tried to sidestep and avoid the colision. She ended upl clipping the shorter woman’s shoulder and the extra momentum from the heavy bags sent Nina into a spin. “Slow down there, luv,” Maggie laughed, grabbing her arm and halting her unplanned pirouette. “Where’s the fire?”

“Oh, thanks,” she muttered and watched the grin melt from Maggie’s face. “Just heading back to the shop with the—” Nina raised her bags and looked away, feet turned to the street.

“Well—well, here, let me help you!” Maggie followed, hands open and ready to take a bag.

“I’m fine,” Nina shook her head and darted across the street. “Catch you later,” she added, trying to ignore the flash of hurt on Maggie’s face. She just… couldn’t right now.

“Later!” Maggie called back from the pavement on the other side, one hand raised for a tad longer than it should have. Nina gave her own half wave and ducked inside her shop.

The afternoon rush just kept coming and the morning’s awkwardness had safely tucked itself away into a dusty compartment in Nina’s mind when her next customer took just a tick too long to order. Hand hovering over the hot and cold cups, her eyes darted up and right into familiar dark eyes made darker with ill-hidden rage.

“What the hell are you doing talking to Annie?” Lindsay demanded in a low hiss. Both palms pressed against the counter, she was positioned as though she needed to get a closer look at the flavor syrups along the wall behind the till.

Nina knew better.

“If you’d like a coffee,” she said, voice just low enough not to carry much further than the next customer waiting in line, “I’m happy to take your order. If you—”

“Did you think she wouldn’t tell me you were there?” Lindsay interrupted. “Annie is my friend and you upset her. What did you say to her?”

“Lind, I am working,” Nina pressed a smile onto her face but it felt like a death grimace. Likely looked even worse. Nosy parker Mrs. Sandwich was next in line and even she inched backward, suddenly engrossed in her phone. Yep, her fake smile definitely looked worse than it felt. “Please, Lind, if you actually have something to discuss we can—”

“You always do this! I come to you with a problem and you just dismiss—”

Nina stepped back, putting distance between them, but stood a little taller. The line behind Lindsay shifted and a familiar glint of blonde curls moved closer. “It’s time for you to leave, Lind.”

“You don’t get to tell me what to do!” Lindsay was no longer whispering. “What did you say to her?”

“Lindsay, Annie is my—”

“Annie is nothing to you!”

“Oh, hello! Excuse me, pidgeon,” Maggie wedged herself between Lindsay and the counter. “If you’re not going to order, do you mind if sneak in for a skinny latte? My shop’s unattended and I really need a top up.”

“This isn’t over,” Lindsay snapped, ignoring Maggie. She gave Nina one last stare before sidling out of line and out the shop.

Maggie was still watching Lindsay leave when Nina turned to make her coffee. She hoped the heat and noise of the frother might blast away the pounding in her chest but by the time she’d finished Maggie’s coffee, her hands still shook—from rage or fear. Or likely both.

She couldn’t meet Maggie’s eyes. “I don’t need you to save me,” Nina muttered, snapping the lid into place and sliding the cup across the counter.

“I know that,” Maggie said, just as quietly. “I… I’m sorry, Nina. I overstepped.” She took the proffered cup and tapped her card to the till’s scanner. “Thanks for the coffee,” she said with a brightness that didn’t match her eyes. “And thanks, hun,” she turned and said to Mrs. Sandwich. “Appreciate you letting me skip.”

“Anytime, Maggie,” Mrs. Sandwich nodded and stepped forward. “Nina, you got any of those scones you had last week?

Maggie had slipped away by the next time Nina looked up.

Last customer of the night sorted, Nina’s feet dragged as she finally flipped open the ‘open’ sign and locked the door. She couldn’t help a glance across the street. The warm, cheery lights of Maggie’s shop were already dark. Perhaps she’d been a bit harsher than she needed to be, the truth that she’d very much wanted her assistance did little to ease her anger at the entire mess of a situation.

“Our love lives look simple from the outside, indeed,” Nina muttered, her earlier words to Crowley mocking her. She turned and sighed, and let the doorframe hold her up for a while. It had been a long day and the cot in the back was hardly meant to provide for a restful night. Certainly not for weeks at a time.

After a long moment, she straightened. It was only then she noticed a person’s shadow spilling over the floor. “Lind, not now—” she began, whipping around.

Instead of Lindsay, though, stood Maggie, one of those damned records tucked under one arm, a small beige and blue leather case gripped in her hand. She waved and half-smiled, bottom lip caught between her teeth. “Sorry!” she called through the glass. “Didn’t mean to startle you there, luv.”

“Y—you didn’t,” Nina lied and unlocked the door. It was better than shouting through it. “Erm, come in, I suppose,” she murmured, mouth getting ahead of herself.

The eyes that watched Nina unlock and open the door were soft but large and observant . Maggie tilted her head. “Rough day?”

“What do you need, Maggie? I’m closing up.”

“I can see that,” Maggie smiled and held up the small suitcase-looking thing. “That’s why I brought this. Perhaps a little music might make the tedium of counting out a… a bit nicer?” she ended her ramble with a wince.

Arms crossed over her chest Nina spotted the album Maggie had tried to give her a few weeks ago. Shoulders slumping, she nodded. “Fine. Music, then.”

“Grand,” Maggie smiled and slipped inside the shop. “I think you’ll really like this album and not just because she’s got your name,” she flashed a brilliant grin over her shoulder as she set down the case and opened it, revealing a travel turntable. “I can set this up and then leave or…”

Nina sighed. “Just stay. I’m putting you to work, though,” she said, sterner than she’d intended. Maggie still snapped to attention with a mock salute. It was hard not to laugh. “You can plug it in over there,” she said, pointing to the nearest outlet under the window. “Then start wiping down the tables. Please,” she added.

Maggie gave her a quick nod and, after a moment, the shop was filled with the warm crackle of the record player.

Baby, you understand me now If sometimes you see that I’m mad…

“Subtle,” Nina chuckled and Maggie gave her a little shrug.

“It’s the same album I brought over before, I swear.”

Nina bumped her shoulder as they passed each other. “Yeah, I know. I recognize it.”

They worked through half the album and, together, they finished closing up far sooner than Nina expected.

“Till’s counted, and everything looks clean out here,” she said. “Well, I…” her eyes darted to the back room. “I should be getting to—”

“Oh…” A kicked puppy might look less disappointed. “I… I live just down near Trinity. How about you? We could walk together—”

“Listen, Maggie, I—I sleep in the shop.” Nina interrupted. “I need to lock up and get some sleep. It’s late and people will be lined up at the door.”

“What?” Maggie’s jaw dropped. “But…” A confused frown pulled down her entire face. “You’ve got the grocer’s loading dock behind you. You don’t have space for an apartment back there.”

“I didn’t say there was apartment!” Nina snapped, Lindsay’s voice echoing in her head. She squeezed her eyes shut, both hands up in surrender. “Please, I’m sorry. It’s late and I need to sleep, I just—”

“You don’t have to struggle alone.” Maggie stepped closer and took her hand. “I can help you. I can—”

Nina shook her head. “Just leave it! My problems are none of your business.”

“Well… that’s true,” Maggie nodded and she stopped moving closer. But she didn’t let go of Nina’s hand. “But that doesn’t mean I can’t offer my help.”

“Actually it does, it—” NIna stared down at the soft fingers wrapped around hers. “It—”

“All I’m saying is, love…” She gave Nina’s fingers a little squeeze and smiled. “You’re not alone.”

“Well, what if I want to be alone?” Nina said before she could stop herself.

Maggie smiled back with the eyes that had stared down a demon. “Do you want to be?”

Nina fell quiet and music filled the space between them.

Who soothes my achin’, thumpin’ brain? Nobody

“No,” she whispered.

Maggie’s smile grew. “Then you won’t be.”

okay i listened to hirasawas kaku p-model albums

vistoron is solid musically, its very focused on playing around with the glitch pop side of its instrumentation and i can respect that. ive heard that kaku p-model is a lot more focused around a techno sound so this makes sense. lyrically and thematically i really like it, but i do think a lot of the writing can be very on the nose at times. im not sure how much of that is a result of too literal a translation, but hey what can you do. thius was good 4/5 ill probably listen to it again

gipnoza is very very fun musically, especially in the rhythms it plays around with—if vistoron was an exploration in melody, this one is an exploration in rhythm. for example i love how parallel kozak switches the on-beat every handful of bars it makes it very engaging to listen to. lyrically it feels like a bit of a retread of the last album though. maybe im taking it too poorly because im listening to both in succession but i think thematically vistoron accomplishes its lyrics a lot more effectively, even if its more blunt than gipnoza about it when it tries.

kai=kai is the last one under the kaku p-model label and its probably my least favourite. i think thats partly because of expectations i had going in though. whereas the other two were very very clearly experiments that were deviating from hirasawas usual style into more hardcore glitchpop techno, kai=kai feels like a midpoint between his usual brand and the electronic overload of kaku p-model. ive had expectations set high for this one as well since ive heard its a rare late-career high point but it didnt hit as much as i was promised. i still quite like it, especially its latter half where the focus on symphonic instruments and harmonies comes into its own much more confidently. it took a while to reach that though, so i cant say this fully clicked with me

#blub #susumu hirasawa continues to hit tho. real good stuff

So it’s both “Mermaids” release day and the day I can finally unwrap my “Daffodil” tattoo.

I’m staying up until midnight to hear this last Dance Fever song, so I’ve spent a large part of today thinking about the whole album.

I’ve worked through a lot of it academically this year, but I haven’t really let myself sit down and think about what it means to me personally. I saw someone write that the build up of “Mermaids” feels like a scream waiting to be released (@veronicaofosea), and that’s so close to how Dance Fever as a whole feels to me. Listening to it has felt like letting out multiple screams that have been building up in my body since girlhood.

Florence isn’t close to the first artist to remind women that we don’t have to be good, seek approval, be desirable, and keep the peace. Within my own pantheon of favorite artists/musicians/poets, I have heard it so often. Mary Oliver has told us (“You do not have to be good / you do not have to walk on your knees / for a hundred miles through the desert repenting”). Tori Amos has told us again and again in more ways than I have room to write down (“She’s been everybody else’s girl/ Maybe one day she’ll be her own”). Each instance has felt like a small revelation to me. An idea I could intellectually know to be true, but couldn’t feel in my body when needing to go out into the world to assert myself. My voice is always quieter than I mean it to be. I apologize for myself when I don’t want to. I have a really hard time making eye contact. Dance Fever marked the first time that I could fully hear this truth. Right now. In my late thirties.

I don’t know what did it, exactly. I think part of it was lockdown and being on my own so much. Probably having the space to retreat into myself, being responsible only to myself and my partner. Having very few external expectations placed on us. And then coming out of that, Dance Fever was the first piece of art to shatter my grief-induced numbness.

“Oh bring your salt, bring your cigarette. Draw me a circle and I’ll protect…” The ferocity of the circle drawn in “Heaven is Here.” The dark magic and intentional monstrosity of it. How it made a protected space for our rage and mourning and reclamation of self.

The tender, funny anger of “Girls Against God.” (Which actually made me feel conflicted at first. Growing up going to an Orthodox Hebrew school, we didn’t write God’s name on anything that wasn’t sacred and meant to last, even in English. Writing down that title was literally the first time I spelled out “God” which was scary but also powerful.) The permission of being able to own our anger, even if it’s just us, in our pajamas, alone in our bedrooms.

And it took me a while to notice what was being sung during the “Dream Girl Evil” bridge, but once I figured out that it was a reversal of Yeats’ “The Second Coming,” I couldn’t stop thinking about it. What does it mean to look at our world on the verge of collapse and respond-- at least for a moment-- by essentially saying well fine, this wasn’t a world built for us. If it’s dependent on women being the world’s angels and dream girls, just let it all burn. “I am nobody’s moral center / it cannot hold.” Again, this intense permission to claim our rage and independence.

The part of the album that has probably made me cry the most is a lyric I still don’t fully understand. It’s toward the end of “Choreomania,” when the music slows down a little and Florence sings, “And do they speak to you? Because they speak to me, too. The pressure and the panic you push your body through.” I’m not sure who “they” are for her, but there is something so comforting in how the fourth wall breaks down here, how she sings “they speak to me, too.” The vulnerable confession that we all carry unwanted voices with us born of mental illness, or intergenerational trauma, or gendered social expectation, and the recognition of what those voices do to us and our bodies. The anxiety and the panic attacks.

This album feels like a release of those voices or an attempt to live with them in a way that allows us to fully reclaim ourselves.

Even just posting this feels like something I wouldn’t have done before. I would have checked with multiple people to make sure it wasn’t too much, or too pointless, or too intense, but I think of “Restraint” and post it anyway. “And have I learned restraint? Am I quiet enough for you yet?” Saying “yes, but I’m unlearning it” feels like a source of power.

it’s 1:20 and i can’t sleep :(( i’ve been having such a hard time sleeping lately istg. uh anyways may i strongly suggest listening to folklore- i totally get if taylor isn’t your thing but i really suggest giving this album a shot!! it’s amazing lyricism combined with taylor’s storytelling realty makes for an compelling and deeply emotional album. again no pressure but just my request <3

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…….. i hope u can get some rest soon i totally feel u <///3 idk how much u would like it but whenever i absolutely cant sleep i make ponyo honey tea where u get a mug and add 2 tbsp honey (i dont like honey but its really good in this. just in case u dont like honey either) as well as a “pinch” (i put lots) of cinnamon and then fill the mug halfway with boiling water , then fill the rest with milk of ur choice (i like oat milk i put in the microwave for like 10 seconds so my drink stays warm) and drink away!!!!! but yeag i am so so sorry for u thats the worst feeling😭😭😭😭

ALSO MAYBE I WILL….another friend of mine is another big taylor swift fan and she LOVES folklore its her fav so ill do my best to remember to listen for the 2 of u 😎☺️

also uno reverse card-ing florence back at u <3

THANK YOU KING.

on that note:

fav song: KING. i cant describe what this did to me when i heard it for the first time. most insane song in the world . listen to the live at msg version and try not to have full body shivers it;s impossible

least fav song: ok i have certain songs that i have listened to less over the years but lately ive been coming back to them and being like wait does this actually fuck??? which is to say my answer is probably strangeness and charm but now im kind of into it. also toxic opinion i did not enjoy cosmic love for a while like i think it just feels like a song i get fatigued of more? but lately i listened to it again for the first time in a while and i was like OH!! this FUCKS!! holy shit!!! which is to say fatm has the same principle as btvs which is no bad songs / no bad episodes. all good. even when it's bad it's good.

fav album: genuinely dance fever is the best album ever made. like. i think it combines everything that works abt the sound of the lungs/ceremonials era and everything that works abt the sound of the hb3/high as hope era into one perfectly balanced album. NO SKIPS ALBUM. like florence has no bad songs but she does have songs where im like ok im not feeling this right now. im always in the mood for every song on dance fever. she said i am making an album about vampires and mental illness and being queer and god and dancing. and i said HEY!!! HEY I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!! I LVOE YOU!!! i have this album on vinyl also it's the only album i own on vinyl shout out to @ho-tato for buying it for me on vinyl

least fav album: ok dont hate me but i think high as hope is one of her weaker albums. like i still LOVE high as hope i love that whole era when it came out i listened to it on repeat for like 3 weeks. BUT idk for me i think the songs are a little less distinctive ? still obviously bops. 'no choir' is insane. literally she is out here making songs that speak to the rest of her discography. 'no choir' is cousins with 'restraint'. and like if u asked me abt any individual song on high as hope i'd be like yeah it FUCKS. but as a whole album i think it's a little too muted? or maybe i just wish it was longer? idk. i love you high as hope. youre my cherished baby high as hope im sorry i said all this.

song that got me into them: ok this is so hard to say bc i have loved fatm since like. the 7th grade. but the first song i remember getting REALLY into is 'landscape-demo'. EVERYONE GO LISTEN TO LANDSCAPE DEMO. SHE'S JUST LIKE THE WEATHER! CANT HOLD HER TOGETHER! BORN FROM DARK WATER! DAUGHTER OF THE RAIN AND SNOWWWW. oh my god. shrimp emotions.the right way to listen to that song is when ur 13 and on the bus to middle school and it's a dark morning shifting into daylight and also you just started practicing witchcraft .

seen live; YES!!!!! ive seen her 3 times!!!!! for the first time at a music festival during the hb3 era, and then at a free concert for a talk show also during the hb3 era and then i saw her in CONCERT during the high as hope era every single time changed me as a person. i couldnt go to her concert in my city during the dance fever tour bc it was the same weekend as my brother's wedding. im fine about it. im FINE. i just wish her and my brother had planned better. would some cross communication have been so hard. and also i know her intimately from my whole chest and my spirit so in that sense i see her live every day.

rating: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 !!! one million!!! ten billion!!!!!!!!! there is no numerical value for her she transcends that. i want to be ejected into outer space with her.

hello im going on anon b/c anxiety but i have a theory/observation thing to share.

okay so today (at least where i live) is Friday the 13th and that feels like some spooky stuff and MCR might get back on their witchy bullshit and post something – honestly tho idk what they would post b/c they prolly wanna do more lead-up

ok but the real thing i wanted to say was BRIAN FUCKING SCHECTER's (ooo yay bad spelling go brr) TWITTER. ok so he posted some real cryptic shit that I gotta tell u about (idk who else to scream too)

okay so the first thing he posted is "such a nice day..." which is weird because he literally hasn't tweeted since 2013-ish? also i wouldn't be able to tell because HE DELETED ALL OF HIS OLDER TWEETS

the FIRST thing is that the MCR band name/logo is BACKWARDS on the album cover , and Brian tweeted this weird keysmash: sidnuces dcv

so I was listening to My Chemical Fancast (amazing fucking podcast) and they were talking about Brian's twitter, and how MCR is obsessed with latin + stuff now, so i plugged his tweet into latin--> english google translate

that didn't come up with anything, so i REVERSED it and plugged it into google translate and got this: vcd secundis, which means vcd seconds (according to google)

so THEN,,, I went and did some roman numeral bullshit and i think the vcd means 5,400. so basically his weird tweed COULD mean 5,400 seconds, which is 1.5 hours and THEN 1.5 hours after his tweet after that Foundations dropped. so I have a feeling Brian knows a lot and will probably keep being a cryptic motherfucker. so idk. watch out for Brian cuz he tweeted AGAIN, basically just a "good morning" but idk. maybe I'm reading a lot into it,, but the way his twitter presence sparked back up CANNOT be a coincidence. i am also fully prepared to lose my fucking mind today. anyway thx for letting me lose my absolute shit in your ask box. bye.

omg im late but you put so much into this that i wanted to respond

as far as i know he also tweeted, after the one you're talking about, '5400 seconds for the record' which was tweeted at 130pm pst before the 3pm song drop. 5400 seconds is 1.5 hours like you said. he deleted it later and clarified that 'for the record' was like. '5400 seconds, for the record' not like. and hour and a half long album. he didnt want it to be misleading.

but yea, brian is back on for the reuniuon. so he doesn't just know a lot, he likely knows everything. including whether or not theres an album, and when it will drop if it does. considering his pre-song tweets i think we should definitely be keeping an eye on his twitter. ill probably put him on notifs.

Hey hi bestie I heard you're the local fall out boy expert and I'm thinking of getting into them, any recommendations where to start? I tried listening to them like 6-7 years ago but it didn't stick, so I want to try again now

Hi beloved!! I am the self proclaimed Fall Out Boy expert, and I am very happy to give some recommendations!

I was going to be super in depth about these, but lately I've been too mentally ill and busy to be able to put the brainpower toward it. However, do not hesitate to reach out for more recs or to talk about the band/music. I am happy to do so!!

Evening Out With Your Girlfriend. (2003)

Their first ever album. Rough audio. Sounds like a first album. Not in a bad way, but it is their least polished work.

Song recommendations:

Growing Up

Take This To Your Grave (2003)

Their official debut. A bit more polished, but still with obvious punk influences.

Song recommendations:

Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy

Reinventing The Wheel To Run Myself Over

From Under The Cork Tree (2005)

Still a bit punk. A bit more rock.

Song recommendations:

Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued

Dance, Dance

Champagne For My Real Friends, Real Pain For My Sham Friends

Infinity On High (2007)

I'm actually giving you the same recommendations and explanations as Alexi for this album. My agenda is to make you sad and to make you believe in Petekey.

Song recommendations:

Golden

Bang The Doldrums (!!!!!!!!!! 😭🖤🖤)

G.I.N.A.S.F.S (Stands for "gay is not a synonym for sh*tty")

Folie à Deux (2008)

My FAVORITE album!! This is the album that most demands to be listened to all at once and in order.

Song recommendations:

w.a.m.s.

I Don't Care

The (Shipped) Gold Standard

20 Dollar Nosebleed

Save Rock And Roll (2013)

I'm not sure if you have access to YouTube, but if you do go watch The Young Blood Chronicles! FOB made videos for each song on the album, and I think you'll like the concept. If you aren't able to access the videos, let me know. I can either screen record and find a way to send them to you, or I'll try to find you a working link.

Song recommendations:

The Phoenix

Death Valley (Tommy Lee is in this video as the devil!! If you can't access the video, in the meantime before I can get it to you, search "Tommy Lee Fall Out Boy" on my blog for content!)

Rat A Tat (Most punk vibes of their later music.)

American Beauty/American Psycho (2015)

The vibes are so fun and loud on this album!!

Song recommendations:

American Beauty/American Psycho

Jet Pack Blues (Not me saying the album is fun and loud, then recommending the slowest, saddest song.)

Twin Skeltons (Hotel In NYC)

Mania (2018)

Disclaimer: If you want a heavy, guitar driven album, this isn't it. However, I love this album with all of my heart, so maybe you'll find things to appreciate in it as well!

Song recommendations:

The Last Of The Real Ones (You might enjoy this one lyrically.)

Heaven's Gate (I feel like this can be applied in some fandoms.)

Young And Menace (Have to include the song that name drops Nikki Sixx.)

I am soooo sorry this took so long. I hope you're still interested!! Thank you for coming to me for this!!

harry's house - larry stylinson theory

so, I listened to the album as if love of my life was the first song and the sushi one the last

for me, this album represents the time period since 2017 (I believe they had a big fight after the bbg started but they stayed together - but a lot of things which shouldn't be said were said and it still affects the relationship, but idk exactly when this fight happened), but the parts that weren't told us in fine line (that's why it's his house, because he opens his heart for us and fl was just like the love part and this one is sadder). Also, he sometimes brings some memories from before 2017.

- Love of my life: I think this song represents a couple (H&L) who had to stay apart during a time period and it affected the relationship (not necessarily a fight) and know H's trying to prove that he really loves L, no matter what.

- Boyfriends: this one represents when they really started the fight: one of them (idk which one) said something pretty bad and they tryied to get back but then they have sex and fight and this song represents how they/he felt about it

- Satellite: I feel a bit that this song answers habit (thanks for the one who showed this on twitter and let me feel the same), louis did something bad and it made them breakup and harry shows that he is always waiting for him

- Keep Driving: it shows a little bit of harry's life without louis - alcohol, having sex with strangers, drugs and good memories from when they were together

- Daydreaming: it's probably about a stunt, when he says "she says love like you pay me" it's, in my point of view, bcs he is trying to have a relationship with another person (or maybe just having sex idk) and this person say to him to fake love like he fakes love with the stunts for cameras and the part that he asks for love it's like if he was talking to louis or seeing him more one time when trying to be apart and asking for love bcs he can only dream with the real love that comes from louis

- Cinema: idk if this is about them two, but it clearly describes a sex moment and it shows how much harry really likes to stay with this person and how he feels (afraid) of feeling to much

- Matilda: this is only about harry; it's about how he felt when he told his family that he isn't straight - in lights up he shows that he wants everything stays the same, but in here he shows what really happened. it looks like as if someone asked for help in doing this and he tells the truth (that it can hurt, but this person doesn’t depends on relatives just in themself).

- Little Freak: I do not feel good commenting in this song, bcs I think that this looks like louis' point of view but I also think that this is not his so idk how I feel with this song yet

- Daylight: this one feels like and answer to always you - how he got crazy and tried to make contact, and how much he was trying to everything make him contact louis

- As It Was: harry realizes that everything won't be the same again but this person (louis) can't be replaced and then he starts to fall again and his friends try to help him (harry you are no good alone verse)

- Grapejuice: this song represents when they are trying to get back - harry mentions 1982 and i searched lgbt's rights in this year and some places made good things for our community in this year (france removed homosexuality from its official list of mental illnesses, for example)

- Late Night Talking: it's about them being back as a couple and harry showing how much he would do everything bcs he loves L sm

- Music For A Sushi Restaurant: maybe this represents a moment that they had (probably when they went on a date again or something like that) with a new song - maybe they were eating sushi or something like that, they could even been watching scooby-doo bcs he uses scuba-duba-dubub-boo and who knows if this is not a reference for this

Also, a lot of things in the songs remember to one direction's songs so...

maybe I am missing something that I forgot to write here, but that's life. I'll end this with something that I saw on twitter

#harry styles #one direction #fine line #louis tomlinson #larry stylinson #harry's house #larry is real #harry's home #hs1 #theory #larry af

Post your favorite album by 8 artists you like and your favorite song from the album…

I'm counting on the expand post feature, if for some reason it doesn't work out oopsie haha *twirls hair* sorry for not being able to shut up about my questionable taste in music lmao. I have no idea how to add a read more on mobile in the year of the lord two thousand and twenty two

I was tagged by @lagloriana thank you so much! ❤️ (yes of course I wanna do it!! consider me down for getting tagged in anything really, even if it takes me several years to get around to doing it in the end)

I'm tagging @eulenspiegelei @burning-in-this-dark-world @melaninm0nster @maybecomedy (only if you want to of course! also please let me know if anyone wants to be removed from this post, that's no problem) (also!! if anyone wants to be added that shouldn't be a problem either! just lemme know)

Alright here goes, sorry in advance if anyone decides to listen to anything simply because I'm mentioning it here:

1. Lana del Rey / Ultraviolence - Cruel World (i don't know what it is but this song unlocks shrimp emotions in me. Also I'm aware how much she clashes with the rest of this list but she's everything and whenever she releases something new I will listen to it no questions asked. Hope I get to see her live on stage one day ❤️)

2. Alice Cooper / Brutal Planet - Cold Machines (probably not my favorite song by him generally speaking but probably my favorite song on that particular album on which I like every single one of the songs. The only singer on this list I've seen live on stage - twice - and intend to see again, fingers crossed. He means so much to me and my obsession with Your Dad's Music™ is entirely his fault because he started it when I heard Poison for the first time in 2008)

3. Limpbizkit / Chocolate Starfish and Hotdog Flavored Water - My Way (listen, if the music sounds like something that would be played at a small independent skateboard store that sells oversized hoodies it's very likely right up my alley, no matter if it's rap, rock or reggae or a mix of all of these genres)

4. Linkin Park / Meteora - Somewhere I Belong (I'd say I like Hybrid Theory just the same, maybe even more, but it's harder to pick a favorite song on there. One of the bands that means the most to me but that I hardly ever actually listen to anymore)

5. HIM / Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights - Beautiful (I remember so clearly the first time listening to this album in 2005~ish, I got the CD from the library and kept returning it just to immediately borrow it again until I finally bought it from the local record store. Feels like a melancholic summer night just after sundown)

6. Led Zeppelin / Mothership - When The Levee Breaks (yeah that's a Best Of Album, so what. It has all the good shit. Feels like late summer to me and I always listen to it in the car throughout September)

7. Metallica / Black Album - Wherever I May Roam (that's probably a controversial opinion, I know the black album is a breaking point in the band history for some fans. also, I don't necessarily consider myself a die hard fan despite literally owning a t-shirt lol. I do like this album though and have a lot of memories connected to it.)

8. Mötley Crüe (derogatory) (I have been listening to their music A LOT lately while literally thinking they're trash but not being able to fucking stop? I don't know which new mental illness I have discovered in me) / Theater of Pain - Home Sweet Home (here's the thing: Mötley Crüe is not even remotely in my top ten of favorite bands and theater of pain itself is okay I guess? However this fucking song? This FUCKING song?? Yes I DO take you to my heart. Yes I DO feel you in my bones. No I REALLY never feel left all alone when I just take this song. 😭❤️😭❤️✊😔❤️️ I love this song so much I've been considering getting a fucking tattoo of it for well over ten years now, that's how much it means to me. That's long enough to decide about a tattoo, right?? I should do it. Easily in my top five of favorite songs of all times EVER. Play this at my funeral I'm not even kidding)

#honorary mentions:#ozzy osbourne / no more tears: road to nowhere (although mama im coming home is a close second)#in flames / soundtrack to your escape: the quiet place #acdc / back in black: back in black (literally every song on this one is great. its like a best of album except it's just a regular album)#lorde / pure heroine: glory and gore (this is such a wintery feeling album for me idk why)#about me #tagged in

our timezones are NOT in alignment (booo timezones) so i ended up listening to ttpd first and THEN i read atkh!! the only thing ill say about ttpd is that but daddy i love him was a win in my books and watching the hateful swifties lose their minds over the fact that a lot of the album was ab matty was gold. ANYWAY

todays chapter omg the build up i’m so excited to see what’s next with george maybe (hopefully?) talking to matty and more tragic matty backstories!!?? i love how charli is like “u guys are so dense ofc yall would be perfect together” and omg carly being protective over matty is the best thing ever i just need to wrap him up in a blanket forever

-🥤

Hello My Dear Smoothie Anon!

Timezones really are the worst! Mixed with me not getting it together and posting the chapter during my lunch break like I said I wasn't going to do lol But alas I couldn't sleep last night and woke up late and was rushing to get to work a lot more than anticipated lol

I had a lot of very complicated feelings about the album - but you're right, I'm glad that But Daddy I Love Him was at least a middle finger to the "fans" who were so awful about Matty last year. In terms of the rest of the album, I hope he's actually doing alright like that US Weekly article said. That was like... the perfect PR move and I'm so glad that someone on his side got it together enough to make it happen.

Now on to ACTUAL important things (at least in my delusional world lol) Thank you SO MUCH for reading omg I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed the new All the King's Horses chapter!! I love Fictional!Charli so much and was like I must find a way for her to be there again lol She just wants Fictional!George to be happy and she is fully convinced getting together with Fictional!Matty would make them BOTH very happy! Fictional!Carly is also very much looking out for Fictional!Matty- they grew up together, she knows what he went through with his mother when they were kids- and she knows a lot more about that situation with the jockey than she's sharing... Fictional!Matty keeps everyone at arms length, even her, and if fictional!George gets past those defenses she will NOT be letting him hurt Fictional!Matty.

Thank you so much for reading and for sending me this ask and just like being all around lovely? I love chatting with you here in the inbox! I hope your Friday was lovely and that you have a great weekend!

❤️Ally

#allylikethecat #ask ally #anon ask #keep it kind #fanfiction #matty fic #gatty #fanfic #all the king's horses #equestrian au #also sorry real quick on the album again because i say im not gonna get into it #but in addition to just not being wowed production wise #i think im just tired and sad of being sad?#i was SO SAD all last year #like mind crushingly sad all the time #because all kinda not great stuff was happening #and like i just dont want to be sad or listen to sad things anymore?#idk i know its not all happy but its at least still upbeat #but ive been listening to a lot of chappell roan lately and im like even the sad songs have some pizzazz so like i dont wanna curl up & cry #idk but like more important things: fic #thank you for reading!!#im glad you enjoyed the chapter!#i love this version of fictional!Matty and fictional!George so much
