#still a banger too so 🙄
Note
HI I don’t know if your request are open so I figured I would send one anyway and then if they were closed you could just ignore it lol
BUT I had this idea and it’s been in my head for days and I don’t feel like writing it myself soooooo
Do you think you can do a one-shot or, yk, whatever you’re comfortable with, for a Legolas x Reader where the reader is kinda like Jaskier? Like they’re dramatic af, are a bard, and isn’t an elf but has somehow just been alive and in peak condition for way longer then they should’ve been? Like Legolas and Reader don’t really get along at first when they met because Reader was traveling with Thorin and Company and stuff and even after he figured out they weren’t bad he was still like “my GOD are they annoying.”
And then Gandalf seeks them out after the fellowship is formed they’re actually super useful bc they know like 10 languages, have traveled almost everywhere, and is actually very good with a sword. Gandalf brings the fellowship to a seemingly random tavern and Legolas just stops bc he recognizes them immediately and is just like “oh my god, PLEASE NOT THEM FU—“
But yk after that they like fall in love and shiz 🙄
SORRY THIS IS LIKE SO SPECIFIC OR UR NOT TAKING REQUEST it’s just I love ur writing, no other lotr blogs I’ve found are taking request, and also you seem to like Jaskier so I figured u might enjoy this a little ?? 😭😭
ANYWAYS EVEN IF YOU DON’T WRITE THIS THANKS FOR READING IT AND I LOVE UR WRITING SM ITS SO GOOD 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Sing Me A River (Legolas x Bard! Reader)
Tumblr media
Author’s Note: HELLOOOO, FELLOW DEAR HEART! My requests technically are always open, it’s just a matter of if I ever get around to them lmao. Naturally, I get a lot of requests. Even more naturally, someone requests something and throws the word ‘Jaskier’ in there I’m writing this baby ASAP. Now, this thing grew legs of its own so you’ll probably have to request a part two in the asks so I can get that to you. I just really wanted to put something out tonight, so boom, two-parter. Maybe three. Hey, let’s just see where it goes. Now, believe me when I say I tried to find a gif that wasn’t Jaskier, but apparently if you type in ‘medieval bard lute gif’ into Google images Jaskier is the golden child of the hour. Anywhooooo hope this is what you were going for! I’ll get onto part two soon — you just gotta put it in the asks!
Warnings: Crude jokes made by reader all for the sake of the guts and glory of an epic banger of a song. Mentions adult content. (Bards will be bards).
Synopsis: Like all relevant characters of Middle-earth back in the day, you joined the Company on their Go-Fund-Me campaign to reclaim Erebor. You were a nobody bard back then but the success of your relations with kings and stories of defeating dragons made you a big hit. Speaking of hit, you and Legolas don’t get on. You made one too many hits about him that painted his royal family in a bad light. Oops. Now, Sauron is back and the Fellowship may just need your help. It’s mostly just Gandalf vouching for you, though. Oh, and fangirl Boromir ofc. They find you singing a frankly defamatory song about Legolas in a lively tavern at the height of your fame (you’re essentially One Direction circa 2012 big in Middle-earth in this fic). Tension brews as you’re ultimately asked to join a second Go-Fund-Me campaign.
Tumblr media
The evening was late in hour but early of chores, as Gandalf and Elrond poured themselves over maps of Middle-earth. Various members of the newly-formed Fellowship hung about the open-aired room, pondering each other with curious glances.
Everyone shifted uncomfortably, wondering who’d prove to be the best travel mate for the next few months. It was as if no one knew what to do with their hands or feet, as they stood about awkwardly.
What was there to talk about, anyway? Economic investments and the rising housing crisis in the wake of the upcoming war? With so many races in the room, it was hard to navigate cultural customs, let alone figure out who was of what social standing based on clothing alone. A prince certainly had no place discussing such mutual matters with a gardener, nor a Captain of Gondor with a ranger.
No, it was best everyone waited until Gandalf and Elrond announced a travel route.
“This would steer you best from the path of both Isengard and its scouts,” Elrond concluded, pointing and dragging one finger down the tattered map.
“That’ll bring us into long-overrun townships,” Gandalf pointed out. “Middle-earth is no longer the safely presumptuous-centric land it used to be. People from all over Arda have now flocked for its resources and previously-thought safety.”
“Secrecy is best bought when surrounded by languages that cannot understand you nor you them,” Elrond countered, raising a brow and looking up at the wizard.
Gandalf raised a hand and scratched at his wiry beard. “No… But perhaps we could benefit from an additional team member for the passage? One who knows, say, ten languages across the seas and land underfoot?”
Elrond’s face quickly fell into disapproval. He moved back from the map as if standing too close to it would conjure up the bard’s presence alone, for said bard certainly dwelled somewhere within it, if the local posters unceremoniously plastered on historical podiums in Rivendell detailing the latest show were proof enough alone.
Legolas noticed this behaviour and kicked himself off the wall. He’d had run-ins with bards before – or, one, at least, and one was certainly enough. He quit twirling a knife in his hands, a gift from his father for his begetday long ago, and paid close attention.
“Ten languages would most certainly aid you, but…” the usually reserved lord made a face of cringe, “must you really bring along your friend? Do you even know where they are?”
Gandalf suddenly looked bashful. He reached into his satchel and removed a flyer. It had your pouty face on it and colourful words detailing where your next show was and the date. “I meant to visit them for one of their shows, before getting side-tracked…”
Elrond tried to not judge his friend, as he glanced up from your poster and back to Gandalf. He raised his brows and sighed, resigning himself to the idea. You had certainly grown in fame over the last few decades since your efforts in fighting the dragon fueled your reputation and songs, and certainly the fame had added to your already eccentric ego.
“Very well, if that is your will, I will support it… Just, don’t invite them back for a concert, please; my sons are still recovering from the last one, as is my winery.”
Gandalf nodded at the lord and smiled. “Nonsense, our bard is of the utmost integrity. I have nothing but faith.”
Legolas looked between the lord and wizard, quirking a brow. He tried to view the poster before it was placed back inside the satchel, but alas Gandalf unknowingly blocked his view.
But then, the prince suddenly recalled you in full detail from the fight against the dragon, and your time spent in the Mirkwood dungeons. You were clearly mortal, and that was many years ago.
Satisfied with the thought, Legolas nodded to himself in reassurance. There was no way you were still alive and kicking. With any luck, you were fast asleep in a chair somewhere, millions of leagues away.
~
Oh, you were in a chair alright. Except standing on top of it, one foot on the backrest and one on the seat. You certainly weren’t asleep, either, nor was your performance lulling anyone into such a slumber. There would be no lullabies here tonight, good sir.
Instead, on top of the chair, you belted out lyrics to the song you wrote about your time captured in Mirkwood with the Company, using the foot on the backrest to push the chair downwards, where you dramatically landed on the floor and kept on playing around the lively tavern with your lute.
Folks of all nationalities and origins joined in, for how could they not? You knew how to play the song in over ten different languages and were finally onto the Common Speech version. Everyone sung along as you made your way around the floor, illuminated in a thousand different arrays of golden candlelight.
You alluded to the Mirkwood Elves being absolute idiots, to put it lightly. It was only unfortunate that the Fellowship, led by Gandalf, walked in the moment you made a crude innuendo about Legolas’ hair being nearly as pasty as the spider’s webs surrounding his forested home. Something about incest, too.
It wasn’t very nice, but what could you say? You hated the pretentious white-haired family and they you. Perhaps composing a ballad with the dwarves about the elves’ wine-stained teeth in the dungeons planted the seed of distaste in the first place, but alas.
Gimli clapped his hands merrily and tapped his foot. “Oh-ho-ho! ‘Tis a CLASSIC back home! I’ve been meaning to meet the bard from my father’s tales for many years now! What an honourable night. Let us drink to it!”
Pippin nodded faster than light at Gimli and then Merry, speaking before racing off with his cousin and dwarven friend to the bar.
“Aye! We’ve heard this one, too! Even all the way out in the Shire!” Pippin looked up at Legolas, who’d just walked in with Aragorn right behind him. “Funny, I didn’t know there were other white-haired elves such as yourself and your father in Mirkwood, your highness. What are the chances of that!”
Just then, you sung of Legolas by title and name, confirming every crude lyric to be indeed about him towards the end of the song. Something mean about his father, too.
Pippin’s mouth parted and his brows shot up in surprise. He quickly shrugged it off, though – looking up at the elf casually before joining Merry and Gimli by the bar. “Oh, they are singing about you! That makes more sense!”
Legolas furrowed his own brows, looking away from the departing hobbit and across the tavern right as you came to the finale of the song, earning rapturous applause. And then, his eyes grew wide.
Gandalf looked bashful as he stood with Boromir. The captain was grinning at your performance – whistling as you took a dramatic bow as the cheers carried on. Frodo and Sam looked between each other but shared a silent nod, and afterwards, they joined the rest at the bar.
Seething, the prince snapped his gaze up at Gandalf. “THEM? Are you SERIOUS? How could you possibly not tell me?! They are the most arrogant, dim-witted, crude, annoying—”
“Now, now, Legolas,” Gandalf cut in, placing a hand on the swiftly rising elf’s shoulders. “Y/n and yourself may have an… adverse history, but that whole Mirkwood incident was put to rest years ago. If I recall, you both parted ways amicably at the end of the battle. There may have even been a smile, too, if I recall very well!”
“Overjoyed to be rid, as I remember it,” Legolas rolled his eyes, landing them in your direction. You took a sip of ale and felt a gaze, or, glare, lingering in your direction. When you locked eyes with the angry ones of the prince, you widened them for only a moment, before narrowing them and smirking mischievously.
Oh, he didn’t like that.
Hoisting your sloshing ale out to the side, you widened both arms. You were stood atop a tavern table, now pointing in the prince’s direction.
“Oh, my stars! Do my eyes deceive me?” Your naturally loud voice caught the attention of the tavern again, who all no doubt were hoping for an encore. “Ladies and gentleman, if it isn’t the star of the hour! Well, besides me, of course – but no, I should share the limelight; it’s the muse of my song, Legolas of the Woodland Realm!”
Everyone all looked in his direction. Many laughed loudly, some whistled appreciatively, and others who believed the lyrics muttered behind cupped hands to conceal their words and grins.
Aragorn shifted uncomfortably. It wasn’t good to bring this much attention to themselves, especially given the circumstances. One look from Aragorn sent up at Gandalf voiced his concern. The wizard nodded back and drew you over with a beckoning hand.
You finished off the rest of your ale and encouraged other bards to pick up the music again. Once the sound of flutes and lutes filled the air, you made your way through the crowd, placing your hand over your heart and responding earnestly to every compliment as you walked past.
"Y/n! I saw you play when I was a child!"
"My niece is a HUGE fan!"
"Do you sing at weddings?!"
And soon enough, you were in front of the trio.
“Gandalf the Grey,” you grinned up, slinging your lute across your back.
He responded warmly, throwing your bard title in as he did so. “You’ve exceeded your previous standing upon the pedestal of fame. Apparently, this song has been heard all over the land.”
At the mention of the song, you turned to Legolas. “Ahh, has it now? Judging by the star-struck expression upon your oddly fine-tuned visage, I’m guessing this is your first time?”
Legolas narrowed his eyes and kept them locked on yours. “First and last time.”
Without missing a beat, you replied, “Aw, buddy. Don’t worry. Being a two-thousand-year-old virgin isn’t that weird. Don’t count yourself out just yet.”
His face dropped. “Wha—No! That’s not at all what I—”
“I must say, dear bard,” Boromir cut in, firmly shaking your hand. “My little brother and I have seen you perform in Gondor before, and we are both great admirers of your work. Might I please trouble you for a signature made out to ‘Faramir’? I might not get this opportunity again.”
You shrugged it off coolly. “Yeah, sure! Always happy to meet a fan!”
Legolas stared in horror at the interaction for a moment. “What is happening right now..?”
Aragorn placed a hand on his shoulder and stepped in. “Y/n, I’m afraid we have not only come for review of your work tonight.”
At that, he looked up at Gandalf urgingly. The wizard sighed and nodded. “Indeed not. Might there be somewhere more private we can talk?”
Briefly looking up from the signature you were writing on a handkerchief, you nodded your head from side to side in thought and pursed your lips, speaking as you wrote. “I’ve got a room here. I’m not sure we’ll all fit, but I suppose we can figure something out."
You sent a wink Legolas’ way, whose face was still frozen somewhere between contemplation, shock, and horror.
“You should be dead,” he decided upon moments later.
Feigning alarm, you looked over your shoulder. “Why? The song really that bad? You hired the world’s worst assassin to take me out and they couldn’t even finish the job?”
Learning how to dance with your words again, Legolas replied straight to the point. “You look the same as you did all those years ago. You’re mortal. You should be dead, or very, very elderly, at the least.”
You blinked back at him. “Was there a question in there somewhere, or…?”
Noticing all the attention you were drawing, Gandalf and Aragorn decided to usher this meeting along elsewhere.
“Ah, Y/n,” Gandalf slid in, smiling tensely as he noticed Legolas’ fingers curl backwards, as if instinctively reaching for his bow. “Perhaps we should continue this upstairs? We have much to discuss, as mentioned before.”
You raked your eyes over the prince’s face for a further few seconds. He all but glared back. You dropped your eyes to his hands, noticing the way they curled the same as the wizard did. Smirking, you looked back up into the prince’s eyes – locking them there as you responded to Gandalf.
“Great idea.”

anyway. i was so excited for this one! the games made so nervous. i remember wasn’t so excited about all the sports games at summer camp i somehow i Was good at them (plus i was short and light so i was easy to be dragged 😭😭😭) But i genuinely would like to try to play the inner tube game even though i know. i would definitely break one of my limbs there.
as a fellow yellow cabin member im so so happy that yellow cabin won but i really want to blue cabin to take a top three spot next time. mike really tried to when he wasn’t distracted by will’s arms. and lips. and eyes. anyway.
i fully giggled when i saw st references (“u didn’t have too” and green paint on mikes face) but i fully laughed when i saw
Tumblr media
so insane for u andi.

ahhh thank you so so much!! i'm glad you enjoyed it :) i based the games on an all school event at the university i attended, and i (unfortunately) never had the guts to play the inner tube game. literally was scared for my life.
HAHAHAHA that little excerpt is one of my favorite lines in the chapter. idk why but i just think it's funny :)
mike's will panic in this chapter is something that needs to be studied. he's over here doing cartwheels in his mind trying to act like he's not down absolutely horrendous for will.
work is still being Work but thank you! :)
and ah tysm!!! we've tried very hard to make sure that the story feels cohesive and the characters are consistent from chapter to chapter, so i'm glad it's reading that way too lol <3

not me reading chapter 7 (am so silly lol)
Guess Simoun still comes back, huh?
also Lucky Basilio for finding out Top secrets that the government still cannot find out lol.
Uhhh... Are they having a healthy debate? But yes, keep going, I love listening to Simoun mansplain and Manipulate out of our protagonist XD
But Sir Simoun, I just wanna be a doctor ;-; —Basilio, probably
Tumblr media
Dear Simoun, what did they do to deserve that?
Tumblr media
I dunno who Simoun dedicated this, but... HELP ME CUZ DANG TUMBLR EL NOLI FANDOM WILL MAKE ME THINK ABOUT ELIBARRA-
Sorry for the caps, but like. I need Basilio's last name XD
not me taking the time to answer this when i have classes in like 7 hours from now and i still have not slept— (blame rizal & his stupid stupid book (affectionate, revering))
chapter 7 my absolute beloved!! this banger of a chapter is still one of my most favorites even now – i have so many Thoughts™ over this chapter it's making me absolutely insaaaane like. these bitches be going back and forth making good points occasionally. and emphasis on occasionally bc,, god,,, their other arguments,,,,,, garbage. shut up. both of you.
1. Ibarra is a BUG that should be SQUASHED on sight. i will throw him on a garbage disposal. we all should. (i say, knowing full well i have a history of ranting to my friends about how sad i get over him)
2. hdghjvfjhd pls this is so funny to me like,, sim 🤝 that superman guy i forgot the name of. it's all in ze ✨glasses✨
3. goDDD simoun was such a boomer in it too like,,, you kids 🙄 chasing butterflies and being all innocent 🙄 when you should be planting b0mbs in celebrations like a REAL MAN 🙄🙄 smh smh. bro would be the equivalent of boomers in our time being like 'oh. OUR generation endured abuse from our parents and teachers and that's why we're disciplined and tough. you kids are WEAKLINGS, that's why you're all undisciplined and unprepared for life.' (<- me typing this up, horrified but laughing over the realization that simoun would unironically support ROTC & the other useless, nonsensical programs & plans of our government for our educational system rn SJGHDHBHDV)
4. yeah!! poor basi's just trying to study man 😞 can u imagine tho a debate between sim & isagani….glorious (also bc 'gani is like. the elias of el fili. both of these mfs threw hands with friars and other powerful figures.)
(isagani once he hears the first bullshit argument from simoun:
Tumblr media
5. IK LIKE??? BRO CHILL LMFAOOOO that was such a batshit insane confession but what were we expecting from a tyrant and a fascist
6. oh..you know full well who the noble soul he's referring to… 👀 /lh jkjk but yeah he was referring to his dad in the first two sentences, and the noble soul is elias,,, whose spirit is probably there screaming at simoun's face throughout this whole monologue, throughout the whole chapter (and throughout the whole book tbh)
no apologies needed, you're always welcome to scream with me over all this (sorry for my late replies tho) ^^ and as for basi's last name…*grabs a shovel and heads over to luneta* /j

Hello again M🕵🏻‍♀️,
I just read your answer to the 1950s film anon with the MUBI screenshots and got so very excited! 📽️😻🎞️
Your suggestions are in oh-so-excellent tastes! I had to come here to share my favs (okay some might be from the 60s…😳🫢)
🚬”Breathless” (Jean Seberg & Jan Paul Belmondo, need I say more?!)
🥲”Bonjour Tristesse” (again, Jean Seberg, and the novel by Françoise Sagan was an absolute banger too!)
📸 “Rear Window” (My fav Hitchcock. James Stewart is actually not annoying in this one.)
🌂”Mon Oncle” (Jacques Tati might be an acquired taste, esp. in America…but I love the minute details he obsess over in all his films that create the whole quirky-kitsh-odd, sometimes bizarre atmosphere)
💎”Breakfast at Tiffany’s” (🙄I know, cliche…but I just love Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard in this one, even with the despicable depiction of quasi Japonesque character Mr. Yunioshi played by Mickey Rooney. Funny how Peppard also went on to act in action films/shows later, just like Belmondo)
👑”Roman Holiday” (I’m partial to Gregory Peck in this one.)
⛵️”Plein Soleil” (Alain Delon is breathtaking in this one…)
Ohgosh~🫣there already are too many! Sorry! I’m just so excited for the transformation of your space where I can now find and talk about two of my odd varieties of obsessions (Bangtan & films)!
P.S. Much newer, but do you happen to like Wim Wenders films by any chance? What about Jim Jarmusch?
Your excitement is contagious, anon! This list takes me back to high school, each film has a different memory attached to it.
If you like Jean Seberg, I recommend listening to a series from the You Must Remember This podcast. Her career and life was discussed in detail in parallel with Jane Fonda. Look it up and you'll find it easily. The shooting for Bonjour Tristesse was a bit of a hell for Jean.
Your comment about James Stewart took me out because I understand the feeling. I'm not a fan, there's something about him that annoys me (maybe the way he talks?), but I can see that he was a good actor. I don't have anything serious to criticize.
Yes, Tati is an acquired taste. It never got to me to the point of wanting to watch a lot of his filmography, but he is one of a kind and an influence to those that came after him (Greta mentions him for the inspiration behind Barbie as well)
With Breakfast at Tiffany's, a cliche or not, does it matter? It's too iconic. Yes, it has a reputation and good material for specific tumblr/pinterest aesthetics, but for good reason. If we take all that aside, we're still left with something of value, given that it's also an adaption of a Capote novel.
There's so much to talk about Audrey Hepburn that it requires a separate post. I don't think Hollywood had another actress like her or even coming close to that kind of presence. She was a movie star in her own category. Anyway, I never became a fan of Gregory Peck (I didn't go and search his films) but damn the guy was hot. Can I have a Roman Holiday too? Just like that? 😄
Alain Delon in Plein Soleil is a sin. And a perfect summer film. With this guy, I have to manage to separate the actual person and his political beliefs from the star he was in the 60s. Same with Brigitte Bardot. Ignore and store that in the back of my head so I can enjoy the films.
As to your questions, I could never get into the Jarmusch vibe, although I did watch a few of his films. I don't have anything against him he's good and a true artist, but it doesn't match with my taste. With Wim Wenders, I know Wings of Desire, Paris, Texas, The American Friend, Pina. Again, it's the type of director that has his place in film history, but I never focused particularly on him.

Unrequested opinion: I saw this new Lil Nas X music video last night and had a few thoughts. For starters, it seemed like a copy attempt at his controversial “Montero” video, an entirely CGI video with flamboyant feminine outfits, and taking place in both paradise and hell….
The attempt to shock Christians is likely lost cos at this point who cares, who hasn’t done something like this? I can’t help but wonder if he had made a similar video sexualizing the imagery of Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, or any other faith, or maybe even modern scientific beliefs or conspiracy theories, if those groups would be as chill with things. Something tells me if he *had* made fun and sexualized literally any other faith that the reaction would be extremely different, feel free to let your mind wander on that one.
My takeaway from all this is Lil Nas X is yet another beautifully talented artist controlled and puppeteered by a diseased music industry obsessed with controversy and headlines to produce dollars. They throw millions at him, so of course he does what they say. I bet Lil Nas X has some amazing things he’d like to do artistically as a musician, but he’s too busy trying to shock and offend a group that hasn’t been shocked or offended since Madonna and Manson in the 90s. But of course, it’s not about that, cos he knows Christians won’t be watching this video. It’s about exciting the group of young girls, gays, and theys that follow him who all think nobody has ever done anything like what he’s done before. It’s just a circle jerk.
Sexualitizing Jesus and wearing women’s erotic clothing with make up is tired and boring.
How about an actual controversial video from Nas? What about song about gay love between two black men? What about an energetic break up song about moving on from one shitty man to loving yourself? What about a gay artist who can sing about something real like love and relationship and family and hope and fear and pain. I think we’ve got enough club songs already.
An actual controversial video that would have people talking would be something of beauty and love. What about songs written by one or two people, not four writers and three producers… for this? I’m in the club and I’m like J Christ? lol. Okay.
What a horribly boring and soulless enterprise I found this whole thing to be.
Anywho, if you enjoy the song and it’s fun to dance too, that’s absolutely cool too. I’m not above club bangers, far from it. There’s plenty of room for soulless silly fun. There’s just nothing new or exciting here.
I still long for a regular gay male singer. Just a gay version of the millions of male singers. Does every gay singer need to pull their outfit from their the female dancers box? Does they all need to be deeply in touch with their inner diva? Does every gay singer have to be a flamboyant display or can we ever get a gay guy who just sings. Troy Sivan is a pretty close attempt, at least he was, and has some great tracks, but even here he’s gotta go full drag for one of his videos.
I’m not here to say men shouldn’t explore their feminine side (except Harry styles, he can stop). That’s great but just for once I want a gay artist who is just a guy who is gay. Not a drag queen. Not a montero. Not a basically-nude calendar model pretending to be a country singer.
Nothing would make me happier than to be corrected and told about artists I don’t know about. Truly!
(Also fuck these CGI videos. Every major video is like this now 🙄 An iPhone filming in a parking lot is more fun)

🚨Spoiler-filled thoughts on the new Total Drama Island from someone who just bingewatched it (me)
I went into this season with zero expectations so I wouldn't be upset when my favorites left, and I'm kinda glad I did because it was kinda mid tbh
Ripper should've been out first. He should've been the filler character designed to go early that everyone immediately turned against.
That WAS too early for a merge WTH
When they got down to the last marshmallow in each episode, I predicted the character I liked more would get eliminated and, not counting Zee, I was right 5 out of 10 times
Chase and Emma 2 were about as interesting to me as Devin and Carrie were (i.e., not)
Imagine making a whole episode about farts 🙄
It was around episode 12 when I realized "damn this show's really still going isn't it"
The use of CGI was interesting! On a related note, this season has a lot more cinematic shots in general - I like it!
If Camp Wawanakwa's back, does that mean its sinking has been retconned? (Can we retcon the rest of All Stars too while we're at it? 😆)
The only characters I really enjoyed watching were Scary Girl, Damien, Bowie, Zee and MK
Zee is pure and wholesome and I didn't expect him to be so funny!
MK had soooo much potential and they did almost nothing with her. If I got attached to her I would've been so pissed
Every time they say gay my heart melts 🥰
"Chris Better Have My Honey" is a banger of an episode title but it feels like the episode was written for it and not the other way around
Since when does Chef care about the contestants' wellbeing so much?
Why were they allowed to re-vote just because Zee was being stupid?? That's literally never happened before and it's one of the least fair eliminations ever (it also would've been funnier if they just moved on with the initial marshmallow ceremony without acknowledging his plan)
That TAPEWORM (WHY) is the most messed up thing in the entirety of this franchise imo (and of course it talks, were you expecting it to stay quiet? /s). I legit couldn't even look at my screen when they were eating it, and there are people that had to animate it 🤢
I guess I appreciate that the v*m*t was rainbow this time (I use the term "appreciate" very loosely)
We should be getting another ending where Bowie wins, so I'm interested to see Priya's reaction to losing
I feel like the reboot's Season Two will be more of a Part Two than just a Season Two, like I'm starting to think some characters were deliberately intended to be fleshed out over two seasons instead of just this one
Scary Girl is fun to have around, but her only purpose is to be creepy and funny, and she has no business outlasting better characters. A hypothetical compromise could be her getting booted earlier next season then staying as an intern!
If I had hopes for the next season, I would hope that Zee and MK make it to the finals!
Chris said it's been 15 years since the first Total Drama Island premiered. The Ridonculous Race takes place around just three years after the first TDI. A HUGE IN-UNIVERSE TIME SKIP JUST OCCURRED.

hi hi taru! sorry if you mentioned this before, but i'm just curious: what's your fav taylor song from each album? :D
Hi lina!! I don't think I mentioned it before? Or maybe I did?? But either way, I'm HAPPY to answer this <33 (You can answer too if you have the energy, I'm just as curious!)
Debut: Our Song
It was between that and Mary's Song (I love the story) but Our Song is just so catchy
Fearless: The Way I Loved You
I have an irl friend who says this is a Leona-coded song (delusional 🙄 /lh) but it's still a good song, I'm just closing my eyes
Speak Now: Enchanted
I LOVE SO MANY SONGS, THIS WAS SO HARD. But Enchanted is. It's just. I like imagining some royalty au and wearing a pretty dress
Red: The Moment I Knew
THERE ARE TOO MANY GOOD SONGS AGAIN. There are bangers and there are those I listened to when I was Going Through It. But The Moment I Knew was THE song I listened to (together with champagne problems), it makes me so emotional. Forever Winter is a close second
1989: How You Get The Girl
All songs from 1989 are vibes but. I want you for worse or for better, I would wait for ever and ever, broke your heart I'll put it back together, I want you for ever and ever ‼️‼️So excited for Taylor's Version thoughh
reputation: Dancing With Our Hands Tied
THIS. IS ALSO HARD. THIS IS MY FAVORITE ALBUM. I read something about dwoht tho and that permanently changed me. Don't Blame Me is a close second
Lover: Paper Rings
LOVER MY BELOVED... This is my second favorite album 😭😭 There are too many good ones. Again. But after that one drawing, I think I have to give it to Paper Rings. BUT I ALSO LOVE CRUEL SUMMER DEARLY (the bridge <3) and. Actually many other songs
folklore: the lakes
This was so easy. In my head, this is the tarucore song. I want auroras and sad prose, I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet cause I haven't moved in years
evermore: champagne problems
Also an easy one. The era when I was Going Through It. And I STILL need to write that request omg
Midnights: You're On Your Own, Kid
I think I would've said Lavender Haze or Hits Different before, but You're On Your Own, Kid got me feeling emotions lately

Please rank Buffy seasons from most favorite to least favorite and elaborate whyyyyyyy
Oh thank you sweetie, I love this question!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
So I think it goes:
Season 3: I do like the later seasons too but the high school era is my fave. And this is the best of those seasons for me! Edges out s2 bc FAITH, & also the wishverse
Season 2: also a great season! Spike!!! Points deducted for juliet landau's earscraping accent, and also how on the nose some of the angel/us stuff is
Season 6: THE BIG BAD IS LIFE!!!!! Musical ep! Angsty smutty spuffy! The payoff to a lot of willow/magic/power stuff which had built over several seasons!!!! Def my fave season of the post-high school era, I think you can tell the show was being run by a woman at this point, unfairly maligned, extremely iconic.
Season 1: unfairly maligned! A pretty decent intro season, yes there are some eps which aren't great but that's probs true of every season and w/e it also has bangers like nightmares. Points added for being a short punchy season tbh.
Season 4: what a mixed bag! Several of my fave high concept eps but overall as a season it does flounder. Riley is a very boring character, and the initiative plot wasn't particularly well handled, and the fact the show clearly didn't have enough of a budget to do it well makes it seem an odd choice. Chipped spike was a v fun addition to the gang though!
Season 7: it's OK, overall I like it/s finale as a cap to the show & the first is a pretty engaging big bad. But the eps feel very undifferentiated & a lot of the potential slayers are downright annoying.
Season 5: definitely my least fave season. First of all Dawn is an extremely annoying character, I know she does get better in the later seasons but never enough to justify the sudden inclusion of a young character in a show that was pleasantly becoming one about adults imo (the parallel of conor in Angel probs quadruples my irritation lol). But also suddenly throwing us into ~an au version of the show that we just remain in is SUCH a weird writing choice?? AND riley's still there for a good chunk of the season?? 🙄 bleugh! plus I find glory to be quite an annoying villain, she's a god from some other realm who kinda speaks like a valley girl bc... why? Feels like it was written by Mike schur (derogatory). Ben is such a wet blanket boring love interest too 🙄 and the ~madness stuff is downright offensive. I will add that s5 was v confusing the first time I watched it cos it aired pre watershed on the BBC and they just cut loads of stuff out sdftdfg eg the 'bater' side of the master/bater jokes, or Ben's death 😅 & like i do appreciate that last part isn't exactly the show's fault but maybe that did poison me against it a little extra 😂
Pls tell me yours loopz? 👀

Episode 230: Carlos, Explained
Idk guys I have a feeling this one is gonna get in my feelings
I love Carlos so much
I love denying my failures ceec
NEW MUSIC?
Spooky af I like it
They’re rattlesnakes

DYLAN IS BACK

You’ll speak soon lubelle 😒😒
She sounds like one of those scary suburban moms who will murder you in cold blood
No one wants their eyes to explode asshole
The subtle commentary on how many recent technological advancements are making stuff for the sake of making stuff instead of for understanding the world idk probably reading too much into it
“Everything I want is objectively the correct thing” is the LEAST scientific thing I have ever heard
Ooooo who is Carlos’s old friend
The amount of trust cecil has in his husband is so admirable
NOBODY LIKES YOU LUBELLE I mean you’re a great villain objectively but you should be pushed into a deep hole I think
SIEGE AGAINST THE UNIVERSITY PLS
“The danger here is not the manner in which we are thinking, or the curiosities that drive us, but the human intention behind the thought.” DAMN
“To the we— to a song” is the most infuriating thing
I’m loving the weather though
Sick guitar solo
Carlos’s fit is so killer
HIS FIT IS JOSH
Science is not neat
USE SCIENCE FOR LOVE AND HUMANITY is an approach to life that we as a society could really use right now
I KNEW YOU HAD IT IN YOU DR BLAKE JONES
Find out what it is! Not how to destroy it!!!! This goes crazy hard
Dave
Anyone who claims to be sure of everything is usually sure of nothing
GIRL YOU ARE A BAD SCIENTIST
The son of—??
“I sure hope she wasn’t injured 🙄🙄🙄”
LETS GO CARLOS NEW DEAN!!!
What a cool guy
YESS fix those not peer reviewed shits
NOT. PEER. REVIEWED.

SaL anon here friend to (belatedly) celebrate the success of our "zero expectations" attitude for 911 this week!! We got a lot of fussing over Buck and a whole Buddie scene on OG (honestly I would easily skip most 6x11 and go straight to this episode if I could) and some amazing backstory for Marjan and family moments over on LS. So yay to keeping our expectations in the ground!! I have nothing to expect for the next OG episode since every plot line seems kinda closed right now (I guess not the Denny stuff but its barely been around so 🤷‍♀️) so keeping that up when it returns seems easy enough (knowing KR I'm sure we'll get some promo eventually to sink them) but I'm actually looking forward to seeing a paramedic focused episode on LS (not that there's been much of a firefighting focus lately 🙄) so I should start tempering that.
Anyway, the main point right now is that its finally song time!! And look, I know we've done this one a LOT, but you cannot convince me that the Buddie of last episode was not the literal embodiment of Two. Its almost word for word perfection from "sweetheart, you look a little tired" to "calm waters if that serves you best". The way Eddie doesn't push, just gives the space he Buck needs and says what he needs to hear when he wants to hear it, and the little hints of their shared traumas and both want to "get around to fixing myself too", I couldn't resist, so enjoy!!
Hello my friend! I'm glad there's no episode today because between having my niece visiting and the head cold I have, there was no way this was getting done before tonight. 6x11 letting me down SO HARD in regards to Buddie/firefam focus and feels meant that 6x12 was so much sweeter when I was watching. (It still had some issues, one of which being that after telling us all about how Bobby and Buck are father and son we got nothing with Buck being worried or concerned about Bobby. I swear the pacing and planning is just all over the place with no consistency, but that's for another post.) I'm also confused about what we're doing for the rest of the season because everything but the Denny thing seems to be in a good place (I'm steadfastly refusing to think about the sperm donor thing because it's stupid and I hate it and IDK what the point even was if they weren't going to have Buck struggle at all. Still manifesting it's not his baby because I need this plot to GO AWAY and NEVER. COME. BACK.), but I know we have Ravi's return and some good Madney stuff to look forward to! Aside from the whole thing about L coming back (seriously, that more than anything else TANKED my excitement for the season. I hope they cut absolutely everything possible. Zero dialogue, just let her be present in the background and then fuck off forever), there looks to be some exciting stuff and the finale looks good! So it's a mixed bag. (I'm still not convinced that Buddie poker picture is real and not something that person did to show off some editing skills 🤷🏻‍♀️
For LS, oh man that was an EPISODE! I think I would mind less about them doing one-character focused episodes if they were more spread out so we got lots of everyone, every week and then once in awhile we got a "begins" type episode but I'm taking all the Marjan content where I can get it because we never get enough! And I'm excited to get back to the team responding to emergencies and tomorrow's episode looks really exciting on that front!
Okay, song time!! And look, it's not our fault Two is such a banger! It's just sooooo good! And if the show would quit robbing us of opportunities to do songs like Learning Curve and January White, we wouldn't be in this position, but here we are 🤷🏻‍♀️ So lets get to it!
sweet heart, you look a little tired. when did you last eat? come in and make yourself right at home- stay as long as you need. tell me, is something wrong? if something’s wrong you can count on me. you know i’ll take my heart clean apart, if it helps yours beat.
it’s okay if you can’t find the words, let me take your coat and this weight off of your shoulders.
Okay but YES this is EXACTLY the kitchen scene!! Eddie noticing Buck looks tired and welcoming him in, letting Buck make himself right at home, and not minding that it's already late and dark out. Then the whole "Am I allowed to ask how you are now?" because Eddie was going to give Buck space, but he is also desperate to know and to help and to be there for Buck like Buck was there for him after the shooting. AND THEN you have Buck bringing up the shooting and Eddie being willing to confront that memory, to take his own heart apart, to give Buck some peace of mind, and being willing to listen as Buck struggles to find the right words, and helping carry the weight for a bit so Buck can rest. I just... *screams into pillow* this whole first verse just...perfectly captures that whole scene. And there's something to parents often mis-typing as Twos because that's the state they revert to in times of stress and needing to protect their loved ones, and the Chris of it all being present in the food Eddie is making and Eddie taking that care and applying it to Buck too. Hold on a minute, I need to go cry about this scene again.
like a force to be reckoned with, a mighty ocean or a gentle kiss, i will love you with every single thing i have. like a tidal wave, i’ll make a mess. or calm waters if that serves you best. i will love you without any strings attached.
Ahhhhh, this is the 6x10/6x12 parallel just laid out in front of us too! When Buck was suspended in air, Eddie was a force to be reckoned with, fighting to get him up and when that failed, getting him down to safety, and forcing Buck's heart to beat until it could do so on it's own. When Buck spent the whole day hosting people and putting up a front that he's fine (because he doesn't want to be a burden), Eddie is the calm waters Buck retreats to where he can rest. Eddie sees what Buck needs and makes sure he's able to give what serves Buck best in the moment. And how "love me anyway" coded is "I will love you without any strings attached"?!
it’s okay if you can’t catch your breath, you can take the oxygen straight out of my own chest.
Oh man, we were just missing a scene of Eddie giving Buck mouth-to-mouth and this would have fit PERFECTLY but they knew they would never recover from that 🤣 This also fits the shooting conversation scene (both this one and the one from season 5 at the stables but in reverse), where Eddie sees that Buck is struggling and pulls his memory of that horrible day from himself to give Buck a moment to breathe.
i know exactly how the rule goes: put my mask on first. no, i don’t want to talk about myself- tell me where it hurts. i just want to build you up, build you up ’til you’re good as new and maybe one day i will get around to fixing myself too.
Oof oof oof. I'm thinking about that little wrinkle in Eddie's brow after he says "you DIED, Buck" like he can't bare to think or talk about that moment. Which is fine because right now it's NOT about him and how he's feeling, he wants to get to the bottom of where Buck is hurting so he can help him feel better. I would LOVE if this comes back around later because Eddie has been doing so well, but I would strongly suspect something like this, especially with him being the one holding the rope, to throw him for a loop. I don't expect to see it, but it's what makes sense in the narrative.
i don’t even know where to start, already tired of trying to recall when it all fell apart. and i just want to love you, to love you, to love you well. i just want to learn how, to somehow, be loved myself.
This is just...the Buddie thesis statement. I want to love you well, I want to learn how to somehow be love myself. That's it! That's Buddie in a nutshell.
like a force to be reckoned with, a mighty ocean or a gentle kiss, i will love you without any strings attached. and what a privilege it is to love, a great honor to hold you up.
like a force to be reckoned with a mighty ocean or a gentle kiss, i will love you with every single thing i have like a tidal wave, i’ll make a mess. or calm waters if that serves you best. i will love you without any strings attached, i will love you without a single string attached.
While 6x12 made this chorus very much fitting for Eddie, it's also just so true of both of them like, all the time. They are always there to balance each other out, to give what the other is needing in the moment, whatever serves them best, and they love each other. Full stop. Without a single string attached, that love is there for the other's taking. Aaaaaaand now I'm crying again.
PERFECT choice this week with everything we got! Fingers crossed we can get at least one more song out of this season!

Oct 4th & 5th Double Whammy The Columist & Cuphead Day 18/19
Exhausted from Covid Booster but not down
Tumblr media
A feminist jurno
Twitter dox threats bout her kid
Lil fake model cuuute
Omg that dude is giving pick up artist extrodanaire
She has to write a book
Omg why is there a poster of him in the office
Back to Twitter
If it's that's bad you should go to the police
Bb journo kicked off school paper
Black Pete! Extremely racist no prob with that
Advocating violence
Back to Twitter
Oh she did comment on black pete
A negative commentor looks like a construction worker
Is that her friend? Because she was saying shit things before
Her bike got jacked
Why did she break the fence?
Is that an orb weaver? They make webs in hallways its mad irritating
Grooosss why
Joy boiled egg
Rom com
Now he fucking stay there?
wtf
Now comments section of the egg post
Just murdering guys that probably aren't the commentors at all
Like literally none are confirmed
Now she wants to chat
At least this is confirmed
It's wild hearing older languages than yours and you're like damn we stole Hella your words
Full serial killer trophies and all
These just bug me because you can't just become a serial killer if you're pissy
Out to eat in public
It would piss me off a fake guy spewing fake violence irl has no anger
Now pizza gate shit
None of this is tracking
But what's her face is a great actor
Even still it's getting slow the character deviations aren't explained
The fact that she's doing all this out in the open is....
Pizza gate person is a punk
This is... Dozens
I would say it's writing but there was one on the news
19/16 is not cool though
Still making protest posters
It's lagging in the middle how can she be that good at murder with no practice
Principal way too far
What's the payoff if she's already around the bend?
Police
Just dropped a name and left
Dumb enough to leave bloody tools but smart enough to have a kit? 🙄🙄
The pizza gate is intense though
They going to bring up the writing eventually or nah?
The good guy stick doesn't play like they think it does because he is still peddling misogynistic violence and he never backs her about anything he just says ignore people saying all the things I do generally but to your face
You're not a good guy
They can't all be single yea
There's the model
What kinda writing call the police but not who or why
🙄🙄🙄
Too busy with murder to see the kid is the turning point?
Sigh That only makes narrative sense if she expressed.. Nm
Crying?
Sirens were heard she just chillin??
Boom living with dad
Cold turkey nature walk
Now he's fucking enabling
HOW CAN ANYONE BE THIS INEPT
Back at it
She love touching evidence
Pick up artist gone
Going to the event bloody
I mean good ending but not enough to justify the lag
Could have made it a tight hour also needed more messiness too clean a narrative
The Cuphead Show
Tumblr media
I never watched the original
It was a game
Based on 36 Japanese animation
Well first off the theme song is a banger
In classic style of explaining the show in the intro
youtube
Come with me to the Inkwell Isles
It’s just off the coast, maybe twenty-nine miles
Where there’s good and there’s bad
And then there’s in between
With Cuphead and Mugman, you’ll see what I mean
Ice cream and rockets, trouble never ends!
Watch these ding-dongs as they make new friends (Zig-zag, zig-zag!)
They’ll need some help just to stay on track
Oh no, there’s that guy! You better watch your back
So, if you’rе lookin’ for fun (Yes, we’re lookin’ for fun!)
And a dash of heebiе-jeebies (We’ve got the heebie-jeebies)
Then pack your bags and let’s go!
Welcome to The Cuphead Show!
Welcome to The Cuphead Show!
Absolutely has the vintage feel
The main thing is two chuckle nugget brothers
One neurotic one chaotic get into shenanigans
And by the end it turns creepy
There's 2 seasons
It's only 10 min per sode
The cups live with their elder kettle
It's in that time frame
They run into the devil on day one
After that there are mobsters and adventures in babysitting but also ghosts pirates murder mystery and they get locked up meet a beastie girl ghost scammer and a monster candy town mayor
It's 80 slice of life 20 creepy
All while having near by brushes with the devil oh because one of the cups owes the devil his soul
I mean oh no that guy you betta watch your back
They don't try to update it the animation is retro
And the voice work
There are some fourth wall breaks
Some episodes are all horror and some are the horror of children misinterpreting things
The background is, - the painting uh landscape is creepy and set (old timey) and the animation is bright and incongruent like it used to be
They are bited sized and only a few episodes are flat
