Okay so I've been having thoughts and I'm pretty sure @stressghoul can relate.
I was thinking how in the middle of album cycles, after they do the first tour there's usually some sort of special release and of course I'm talking about things like the EPs and covers...
Well what if we're finally going to get the coveted and longed for, Don't Fear the Reaper cover since we're all so anxiously anticipating (not wanting) for poor Copia to meet his demise?
What if now is the time???? 😱😱😱😱😱

glide gently
i guess from now on i am mostly writing ghost fics. anyways this came out of @stressghoul‘s story on tik tok so have fun.
word count: 929 words
ao3 link: 🧊🧊🧊
Cold.
Why was it so cold?
And why did you think it would be a good idea to go out?
“Cara mia, if you don’t move you’ll continue to be cold!”
Oh right.
You pouted. “Unlike some people, I didn’t take ballet lessons!”
“Ballet lessons are not necessary for ice skating.” Copia glides over to you, hands behind his back and a proud smile on his face. He had also straightened his posture somewhat as well. Compared to him, you looked a bit pathetic: clinging onto the railing, struggling to maintain balance, refusing to move because of how shaky you were.
“Yeah but they most certainly helped you.”
Copia had fallen once: when he got onto the ice. He was hesitant and wobbly a bit but once he started gliding, he didn’t stop. He even did a few twirls and attempted an axel (he almost rammed himself into the wall and decided that was enough. This wasn’t like jumping around in the rain). You on the other hand have fallen multiple times, probably scraped your knee, and lost control. You were someone who didn’t like letting go. It was...scary, dangerous even.
“It takes practice cara mia. I mean, you made it around the rink! Even if it was once. Once is better than none.” He glances down at your skates and observes your body language. “I can help you if you want.”
“No thanks. I got this.” Your smile was strained. “Besides, I wouldn’t want to interrupt your fun.”
“You wouldn’t be interrupting-”
“Just have fun Copia. Don’t worry about me. I’ll get the hang of it. Sooner or later.” You mumble the last part.
“If you insist.” He glides away, but his eyes remain trained on you for a bit, concern growing.
The next fifteen minutes consisted of you shakily making your way around the rink. You almost screamed every time you felt your balance wobble and stopped short of gliding farther than a small amount. You cursed to yourself as you gripped onto the railing against, attempting to stabilize yourself. For just a minute, you decided to take a breather.
You heard the sound of metal on ice approach you. Turning your head, it was Copia. “That was your second time around!” His smile is wide and his face is full of pride. Despite how much you sucked at ice skating, he was proud of the little things. It made you feel warm inside.
“Really? Still feels like I’m on the first one.” You sigh.
Copia puts his hands out and you look at him curiously. “I’ll help you glide. I might be useful to have someone to guide you.”
“Copia...” You bite your lip.
“It won’t hurt, would it? Besides, you trust me, no?”
You think about it for a bit. He’s right. It would be wrong of you not to trust Copia, the current head of the Clergy. Who are you to doubt your faithful leader? “Just...don’t let me go?” You place your hands in his. He closes them, his grip gentle but firm.
“I would never.”
Copia gently tugs you along. He skates backwards which is honestly impressive in its own right. Your legs wobble, but he tells you calmly that he has you. You have nothing to fear when you’re with him. He would not let you get hurt.
“Copia!” You exclaimed, feeling yourself lean forward and your control over your limbs begin to disappear.
He quickly balances you by stopping himself. You use your foot to come to a complete stop. Albeit now you were very close to him. Almost embarrassingly so. Copia smiles. “It’s okay cara mia. Are you okay?” You nod. “Now just follow me again.”
He tugs you and you move with him. He makes it look so effortless, the way he glides. But he could tell by the way you gripped onto his hands that you were nervous. “Take a deep breath.”
You do as told, trying to calm your breathing. Your heart felt like it was moving way too fast, panicked. But breathing and focusing on Copia and his presence helped push it to the back of your mind. Copia begins to glide and you follow his lead.
You stop walking along the ice, beginning to glide more smoothly. You glide for longer and your limbs, even though it sort of felt numb and out of your control, were still present. The biting cold was a reminder that your limbs were functioning and attached to you. You still had control over them.
Copia’s eyes brighten and he smiles yet again. “See cara mia. Not so hard. Shall I move faster?”
“No! No! No thank you!” You exclaim.
“Okay, okay. I’m going to let you go now-”
“Wait!” Your grip on his hands tighten immensely. “Just please don’t-”
You’re interrupted by a loud growl coming from your stomach. It had totally slipped your mind that you forgot to eat earlier.
“Well, I think it’s time to eat anyways.” Copia leans forward. “I most certainly had fun. Did you?”
“Ye...ah.” He was so close. Sparks were flying in your stomach.
“That’s the most important thing.” He presses his lips against your nose in a gentle kiss.
You felt your face heat up. Lucifer, if you were to look in a mirror! You didn’t wanna know what you looked like. “Let’s go! I’m starving.”
Copia lets go of your hands and begins to glide away, leaving you stranded on the ice. “Copia!”
“Oh! Sorry, sorry.”
He glides back over to you and leads you by the hand to the gate.

Comfort movie tag!!
Rules: List ten comfort movies and tag ten people.
@bewitched-in-the-moonlight thank you for the tag and a thousand times sorry for the uber-late reply. I was on vacation with basically no internet connection and when I got back home, I instantly had the questionable pleasure of dealing with a sick kid....
So, what better time to think about comfort movies cause booooooiiiii are they needed right now!
1 - Stephen King's Christine
2 - Jurassic Park (yes the first one from the middle ages)
3 - Pacific Rim
4 - Ratatouille
5 - A Nightmare before Christmas
6 - I'm counting Star Wars Episode IV to VI as one cause who will stop me from doing so
7 - Pretty Woman
8 - Pappa ante Portas (a German movie probably no one else who ain't German and about my age might know and/or find funny)
9 - My Bloody Valentine (Excuse me, the 3D is so bad yet entertaining, it's iconic!)
10 - The whole Transformers shebang including Bumblebee's solo movie
Tagging: @feliciates @crazy-cat-lady42 @copiasass @stressghoul @eccentric-jasmine @owlghuleh @backwards-blackbird @dolly-macabre @carrie0305 @namelesslynoelle

TAG NINE PEOPLE YOU WANT TO GET TO KNOW BETTER
tagged by: @succsessions (thank you bestie mwah mwah ❤️)
currently reading: technically I’m in between books rn because I’m about to start a million different ones for classes, but I did just pick up Dune Messiah again to glance at while not busy at school. I’m also awaiting new updates from about 4 ao3 fics that I’m currently into.
favourite colour: I’m sorta really into purple rn actually, but I’ve been wearing predominantly black for a few months straight now
last song: uhh “A Lot’s Gonna Change” by Weyes Blood came on shuffle last night, but the last song I voluntarily played was “Genesis” by Grimes I believe.
last movie: Dune (2021) I think
sweet/spicy/savory: depends on the day but generally savory and spicy. I only ever really crave sweet food when I’m on my period lol
currently working on: started writing a little something for a couple of oc fics (one for Dune that I've been brewing on for ages, and one for Avatar 2 that is not nearly fleshed out enough to have a decent plot idea yet), as well as an oil painting that I lowkey don’t like that much atm, and a million different things for homework
no-pressure tags: @ibikus @moonlight-serenades @sucharide @timmy-jims-and-the-shindills @stressghoul @jossambird @eledhwens @leezlelatch and anyone else who’d like to play 🥰

Exactly what prey tell does that mean?
Sister knows that TWO is better than ONE?????
Oh my god guys what if it's because we're getting Copia's twin who is "Jesus".
His name means copy, Sisters his mother so obviously she would know if he had a brother and it definitely sounded like when he was like "finally" that it's something that somebody would say about their sibling finally showing up to take over something that they were made to do.
What if this is all alluding to the fact that he's going to have a brother take over for him????
What do you guys think? @stressghoul @slavghoul
