"real 2011 pandora radio recreation: the songs that always played on my hypercurated matt and kim radio, is this it radio, and pumped up kicks radio a.k.a. the authentic 2009-2012 indie kid playlist (ft. my actual authentic 2011 facebook profile pic)"
including full liner notes (typed out below the cut for readability):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- for @justrustandstardust <3
Daylight - Matt and Kim: one of the most iconic songs of my teenage years. I feel like me and Michael based our life off this song. Matt and Kim is one of the bases for the radio stations I picked for this playlist (the ones I listened to constantly). There will be more Matt and Kim on this playlist, but not enough. You really should listen to this whole album (this will not be the last time I say this)
Kids - MGMT: everyone knows electric feel. I picked the underrated classics I was obsessed with after I loved electric feel
Home - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: a staple. so silly, but so iconic
Midnight City - M83: the first of the songs that I only listened to on Pandora & never learned the names/artists. also, became car commercial songs. banger
Is This It - The Strokes: you simply must listen to this album. half of it is on the playlist, but still you must. This album is the second base of a radio station.
Automatic Stop - The Strokes: listen, there's gonna be a lot of Strokes on this playlist. I fell in love with them listening to this radio station.
Rawnald Gregory Erickson the Second - STRFKR: the second of the Pandora exclusives. why is it named that? so iconin
Float On - Modest Mouse: as classic as classics get
Hard to Explain - The Strokes: I found this album at the library and picked it up based on the album art alone. this was back when I got all my music from the library & burned cds onto my computer to make mix cds, listen in windows media player, or upload to my ipod nano
Flourescent Adolescent - Arctic Monkeys: we're in the pre "AM" era! their back catalog is so fucking good, and this is one of the best examples of that. I love this song
Soma - The Strokes: it's gonna be a lot of Strokes. trust me, it's authentic to the experience
Take Me Out - Franz Ferdinand: ICONIC BANGER.
Breezeblocks - alt-J: (so groovy) another Pandora exclusive. mainstay on the channel. like these songs would play every 30 mins & I loved it
Song For No One - Miike Snow: ah! Miike Snow my beloved! never listened outside of Pandora for some reason but SO iconic. they were so popular
Loud Pipes - Ratatat: the beat just gets into your body with these ones
Shut Up and Let Me Go - The Ting Tings: Icons! defined the era. watch the music video.
1901 - Phoenix: we played this and the next Phoenix song so. fucking. much. goin hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!
40 Day Dream - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: when you thought of indie, this is what you thought of
Skinny Love - Bon Iver: jk jk this is what you thought of. This was hipster before it got picked up by Hot Topic
Good Ol' Fashion Nightmare - Matt and Kim: full volume, windows down, 100 mph screaming <3 (I love this song sm)
Intro - The xx: another Pandora exclusive car commercial song but listen, I was obsessed. hearing these songs again is like waking up dormant genes
Lisztomainia - Phoenix: this song and 1901 are a bonded pair. do not separate.
Lessons Learned - Matt and Kim: it was so impossible to pick from this album it's all so good. let it turn your love into a coming of age movie
Sleeping Lessons - The Shins: The SHINS bro THE SHINS. every indie movie had the Shins on their soundtrack. They're so good.
Here (In Your Arms) - Hellogoodbye: listen I didn't want to pick their most popular song but it's so definitive I had to. I saw them live like 4 times. This album is so important to me. All my love songs for my 13 yr old relationship came from this album
Crystalised - The xx: not a listening session would go by that I wouldn't hear this song
All My Friends - LCD Sound System: he's so good
Oxford Comma - Vampire Weekend: THIS ALBUM IS SUMMER 2011. it was one of 2 or 3 go to CDs in my first car. I listened to it over and over and over again. it always brings me back to my ugly brown 2001 Chevy Malibu outside Michael's house, or driving down to the lake. I seriously couldn't pick songs from this album it's all one big song to me. formative. what else can i say.
Time to Pretend - MGMT: I'm feeling rough I'm feeling wrong in the time of my life. underrated classic
Cough Syrup - Young the Giant: a late addition but I know every word
Two Weeks - Grizzly Bear: THE Pandora radio song. I would listen just to hear this song eventually
We Used to Vacation - Cold War Kids: One of my favorite bands ever. Their first two albums were on repeat. This song is my favorite. It just rips something out of me
Rhinemaidens - The Envy Corps: The Envy Corps have made their entrance! I've seen them more than Hellogoodbye. The epitomal hipsters. and some of the best music of all time. They're absolutely foundational. (listen to the album!)
Pumped Up Kicks - Foster the People: The third and final base for a radio station is this song. That's how much I listened to it. One of those songs that just got into my bones. Forever favorite song it never gets old. also, listen to the album. so good
Animal - Miike Snow: the Miike Snow song. One of the first songs I ever discovered on Pandora <3
Young Folks - Peter Bjorn and John: iconic. I don't know what to say
The High Road - Broken Bells: Michael was on the hs radio station senior year & he played this whole EP straight one day
Call It What You Want - Foster the People: BANGER ("what's your style and who do you listen to" WHO CARES <3)
Walking On A Dream - Empire Of The Sun: I did not know the name of this song or the band or even recognize the cover art but I know this song. They put them in car commercials because they're good
What You Know - Two Door Cinema Club: this and the other two door cinema club song came up all the time. bops.
A-Punk - Vampire Weekend: (ay! ay! ay! ay!) most iconic riff of all time! can't understand a damn word but I was screaming them anyway (100mph)
Rill Rill - Sleigh Bells: (Pandora Exclusive!) iconic! can't help but groove to this song. the mood of this song is so representative of this lane of music
Something Good Can Work - Two Door Cinema Club: the opening to this song gets me so hype! I know you'll like this song
Dragon Queen - Yeah Yeah Yeahs: you know Heads Will Roll but did you know this underrated banger? they're awesome, their other songs should get more attention
Don't Slow Down - Matt and Kim: 100mph dancing like a maniac lol look I should not have been allowed behind the wheel of a car. Don't slow down (listen to the album!)
All I Want - LCD Sound System: he's just really good idk
That's Not My Name - The Ting Tings: we were obsessed with them. this song was everywhere
Story Problem - The Envy Corps: for the longest time I didn't know any names to Envy Corps songs because I mostly listened to them live, on a mix cd, or someone else was playing them. so i always got surprised by each song like, oh! I love this one! to be honest I still don't know the titles lol but every song is so damn iconic. at the concerts they would split the audience in half and have half of us do the "dada dada dadada da da da" part and the other half do the "oooooh wa oh wa oh" so you were singing your part throught the end of the song while they played. it was so magical <3
All Time Lows - Hellogoodbye: underrated banger. this album is like the definitive electronic indie sound of the mid-aughts
Somebody Told Me - The Killers: incredible song, incredible band. mainstay. they're so much more than Mr. Brightside
(starting the list over bc of tumblr's character limits. add 50)
Reptilia - The Strokes
Someday - The Strokes
Under Cover of Darkness - The Strokes: listen, this is accurate to how often they would play on that station. just Strokes back to back. and I loved it. their discography is just that deep. they don't miss.
Fell In Love With a Girl - The White Stripes: had to get some Whte Stripes in here. had to.
New Slang - The Shins: this song and Caring Is Creepy just, so iconic. they're so good
The World At Large - Modest Mouse: gonna float on maybe would you understand. ah ah ah ah ah ah aah (dashboard by modest mouse should also be on here but i couldn't find a spot for it :( played all the time) my thoughts were so loud I couldn't hear my mouth <3<3<3
Black Balloon - The Kills: does anyone remember the kills? I wanted to be them so bad. this was the era of iconic indie duos (ting tings, matt & kim, white stripes, she & him...)
When Did Your Heart Go Missing - Rooney: one hit wonders, my beloved
I'm Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance With You - Black Kids: I'm convinced no one listened to this song but us. that's not true, and thank god cuase it's such a bop but we felt like we were in on a secret or something. the true 2010 hipster experience lol
Kid Gloves - The Envy Corps: I would literally put this song on a t work and walk around like I was a manic pixie dream girl in an indie movie. unironically amazing song tho (listen to the ep)
Henrietta - The Fratellis: there should have been four more of their songs on here. broke my heart to cut them
Phantom Limb - The Shins: I don't think I've said listen to the album on this one yet. the way this song just vibrates in you
Naive - The Kooks: another underrepresented band. She Moves In Her Own Way, Ooh La, Seaside!? all staples. I mean... if you need another album to listen to... im just sayin
Finer Feelings - Spoon: a bop. fun song <3
Mardy Bum - Arctic Monkeys: this was my first Arctic Monkeys song <3<3<3 forever. the coda is everything. god I love this song
Such Great Heights - Iron & Wine: listen, the original song by The Postal Service is so so so good and we listened to it just as much as this cover. this cover had us in a chokehold. go listen to the original tho. and the whole Postal Service album I promise it's so fundamental
Janglin - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: the last of the three iconic ES&TMZs songs. This is like the progenitor of Stomp Clap corporate indie. everyone wanted to be them
Tighten Up - The Black Keys: the opening base notes on this song make me go feral. there should be way more Black Keys on here but if you have to pick one this is an easy choice.
Last Nite - The Strokes: the most iconic Strokes song. try not to scraem the first words. you can't. Last Night!
Australia - The Shins: time to put ear covers on! just makes me smile :)
All These Things That I've Done - The Killers: got us screaming "I've got soul but I'm not a soldier" (are we human or are we dancers is also the killers. icons of the era)
Two Weeks In Hawaii - Hellogoodbye: I felt so bad when your mom caught us eating ice cream in your room at three in the morning. the best parts of my adolescence consolidated in this incredible song. the first of this type of album closing song to deeply affect me (followed by only in dreams by weezer in college). coming back to this album was part of me coming out of my depression last summer. my inner child just lives here, and I love her so much <3
A Certain Romance - Artctic Monkeys: I don't know, this song just gives me warm feelings. I know every shape of this song. I'm pretty sure it's about how America is a cultural wasteland lol. over there there's friends of mine, what can I say I've known em for a long long time, and it might over step the line, but you just cannot get angry in the same way, no not in the same way.
Daylight Outro (Remix) - Matt and Kim: back where we started. thx for listening <3

Senator Kelly - Convenient Sunshine
Really good Midwest emo from 2001, I got this CD in 2008 and could never find much information about the band or this release, their music wasn’t even uploaded anywhere. Thankfully I was able to get in contact with chillwavve and give him all the information I had on the band so he could upload this to YouTube.
They were from Iowa and two of the members were also in the indie band The Envy Corps. In 2003 they played a show with The Appleseed Cast… and that’s about all the info I have. There’s one interview with the band from ‘03 where they talk about an upcoming EP which I guess never got a release. Check it out if you like Midwest emo and enjoy finding obscure artists.

bon allez, les sexualities headcanons parce que je suis en train d'y penser (aka: bulletpoints of several internalized homophobia/repressed sexualities/lack of awareness of sexualities other than gay or straight)
John: Bi, préférence majeure pour les femmes. J'ai hésité à le mettre hétéro, puis j'ai réalisé que c'était plus marrant s'il aimait les filles et les garçons et avait une crise existentielle à ce sujet dans son adolescence, jusqu'à ce qu'il se dise qu'il est hétéro car il préfère les meufs. Puis un jour il discute de ça avec Éléna qui lui apprend que la bisexualité existe
Éléna: Pan queen. Just look at her. Elle a séduit homme et femme et a été séduite par homme et femme... même si au final elle avait déjà choisi avec qui elle passerait sa vie
Mary: Hétéro, mais genre. cool avec l'idée de se taper une meuf. Genre sexuellement elle est juuuuste un peu bi, et a pu avoir des aventures avec des filles qu'elle trouvait particulièrement canons. Ado elle n'a eu aucune hésitation à expérimenter et c'est comme ça qu'elle se connait si bien
Steve: Hétéro Ace. Je peux pas expliquer, he just gives off ace energy
Valur: Aro Bi. J'ai besoin d'au moins un aro dans le lot, et Valur has the vibe
Jane: Bi, même si elle a moins expérimenté que Mary
John Sr.: Bi, ses deux seules relations c'est un secret boyfriend ado, puis Jane
Claudine: Greyromantique Bisexuelle. Ça l'a 100% aidée à se convaincre encore plus qu'elle était faite pour servir le mal; une femme qui a envie de relations sexuelles sans pour autant être amoureuse, c'est au mieux une pute, au pire un démon ; cqfd, elle est mauvaise
Mique: Pan Greyromantique Greysexuel. Est-ce parce que mes favs se doivent d'avoir un peu de A? oui. Est-ce parce que je peux imaginer Mique n'ayant jamais ressenti l'Amour dû au fait qu'il n'a jamais eu la possibilité d'être suffisamment proche de quelqu'un à cause de Cécil? Aussi
Cécil: Pan. Rien à dire je trouve juste qu'il mérite d'avoir eu un peu de toxic yaoi à un point de sa vie, mais clairement pour qu'il soit le seul avec un gosse il doit avoir eu une meuf un jour (<- dit comme si j'avais pas déjà toute une histoire autour de lui et la mère de Mique)
Doug: Bi; parce que Perséphone, obviously, mais aussi whatever the fuck he has with Klaus
Klaus: Gay. Look me in the eyes. Tu peux pas me dire qu'il n'est pas l'image de l'internalized homophobia. Le nombre de fois qu'il doit préciser qu'un truc n'est pas gay. L'attitude tryhard pour être un vrai mec et l'arc d'accepter son pouvoir (aussi toxic masculinity ça. ~métaphores~). Le fait que son histoire d'amour avec une femme c'est parce qu'il la séduit pour obtenir l'accès à des informations confidentielles. Le fait qu'il pense pas du tout à elle après qu'ils soient séparés fin saison 3, et qu'il n'y a aucune réunion des deux en saison 5. Aussi whatever the fuck he has with Doug
Miss Moore: Lesbienne. ok alors ça paraît pas immédiatement logique car elle était à fond sur Klaus, MAIS! Quoi de plus gay que de montrer une attirance envers le mec clairement inaccessible? Elle s'en était jamais rendue compte, mais après que ce soit fini avec Klaus elle pourra le réaliser
Mégane: Hétéro. Rien à dire, hormis que c'est dommage pour celles qui n'auront jamais aucune chance avec elle
Jennifer: Bi, préférence pour les hommes. En soit elle était consciente qu'elle aimait bien les filles aussi, et a même tenté une fois ou deux. Cependant ça n'a jamais duré longtemps car elle avait peur d'être dans une relation avec une fille. Comme elle préfère les mecs elle a pu ignorer tout ça, mais après le fiasco John et Jean Micheng, elle avait plus trop envie d'être en couple, surtout avec des mecs. Donc elle s'est retrouvée à retenter des petits coups d'un soir avec des filles. Au final, elle évitera d'être en couple, mais sera nettement plus confortable avec sa sexualité (she gets all the sex friends. all of them.)
Burt: Gay. No comment
Stan: Bi, préférence pour les hommes. S'était convaincu qu'il était straight parce qu'il aimait bien les femmes (comme ça il a pas eu besoin de trop penser qu'il aimait les mecs aussi). Puis Burt happens
Karin: Aroace. He lives for the adrenaline and the rush, nothing else matters
Anne-So (Kyle): Trans Pan Poly. Ça c'est juste canon. Elle était intéressée par Mégane ET The Lord. Clairement elle espérait un trouple, but alas
The Lord: Bi. Just look at him. He kissed boys. You know it.
Hoodwink: Bi; diversity wins! Your husband cheated on you with women AND men! Somehow il faisait des commentaires homophobes quand-même. Puis il s'est retrouvé à Villain City et a dit un truc. "Mec je t'ai vu avec Roger hier". Ça l'a calmé. Les menaces de se faire tabasser et les critiques ont aidé quand-même.
Mac Kormack: Pan Greyromantique Greysexuel. Comment tu expliques qu'il a jamais eu l'air d'avoir des relations romantiques ou sexuelles alors qu'il a plusieurs siècles? That's right. aro/ace spectrum.

Green Lantern Villain Movie Ideas, Part I: Sinestro
Thaal Sinestro AKA the Yellow Lantern, is arguably the Green Lanterns' greatest nemesis. He is a former Green Lantern and mentor of Hal Jordan, obsessed with maintaining order and abusing the power of his ring to do so. When Hal exposes him, he is cast out of the corps, develops an alliance with the Guardians' nemeses, the Weaponers of Qward, and creates a yellow ring utilizing the power of fear, the Green Lanterns' natural weakness.
Origin Movie: I feel like he is a natural fit for a Hal Jordan-specific origin, with him becoming Hal's trainer as he learns to become a Lantern, exploring the galaxy and learning about the universe in the process, only for Hal to discover that Sinestro has been using his powers to impose totalitarian order on his own people/abusing it on the planets he's supposed to be protecting.
Sequel Movie: While I understand the filmmakers' reasonings to save his full villainy until the sequel, just establishing him as a mentor in the original film, I would much rather have had Hal just expose his corruption in the film rather than watch Hal fight Hector and that thing they called Parallax, and never get to see the greatness that could have been a Mark Strong Sinestro. But, if you can find a more interesting villain to fill that origin slot, then I'd be willing to see you try again.
Finale Movie: For this to work, I imagine you'd have to just reference Hal having had a mentor who betrayed the Corps, maybe in a John Stewart-focused series, then have him show up in the finale with a full Sinestro Corps or partnered with Parallax.
Supporting Villain: Any movie focused on the Sinestro Corps as a whole or Parallax would probably naturally include him. Also, I suppose an Atrocitus movie would also include him.
Here are my rankings of them:
Origin Movie: Logically, the best origin villain to do.
Finale Movie: The best way to do him in a John Stewart trilogy.
Supporting Villain: Any of those three are eventual necessities.
Sequel Movie: Purely because we know how that turned out.
What do you think? Who should I cover next?

what's limbus company? it sounds interesting
!!!!! OK SO,
limbus company is a game by project moon that takes place within the general Project Moon Universe tm. it kinda works like magia record?? you fight enemies as you progress through the general story, there’s a gacha system (the rates are pretty good though), and each canto (chapter) ends with a dungeon.
the whole story is an allusion to dante’s inferno, and all of the main characters are based on classic literature (gregor is based on gregor samsa from kafka’s metamorphosis, don quixote is based on the spanish story of the same name, etc etc).
the lore is. Very complicated bc it’s spread between two other games (library of ruina and lobotomy corp), a webcomic, a manga?? I think?, a book that doesn’t have a proper english translation yet, etc etc etc. all you need to know is that their country/world is split into 26 districts, each with their own special letter corporations. lobotmy corp was the previous L corporation, but it kind of Fucksploded and is officially defunct, making limbus the new L corp. yippee!!
the story is centered around the main characters trying to get the golden boughs and reliving/confronting their individual traumas in the process of retrieving them. also their main form of transportation is a bus that runs on a substance created by abnormalities + blood and flesh
the main/pov character is dante, the company manager!! they have a clock prosthetic where their head should be (also canon they/them hehe) and amnesia. they r so silly and I love them
it’s free on mobile and steam, 10/10 would recommend. there’s 3.5 chapters out rn and!! it’s soso good

Limbus Company: Deep Analysis of Sin
So, I decided to take a deeper dive into the different sin types in Limbus Company.
The TLDR Version:
Wrath - Unable to accept something
Lust - Having a strong desire
Sloth - Losing sight
Gluttony - Satisfaction-seeking
Gloom - Controlled by pain
Pride - Contempt of others/selfishness
Envy - Desire to surpass
Regarding the sinners' skills, the sin position is important as well. A S1 sin is a surface-level appearance, but S3 represents something deep inside them.
The detailed explanations are under the cut!
Wrath
Wrath, on the surface level, can present as being irritable or hard to get along with.
Wrath S1 examples
LCB Ishmael, who seems irritable and nitpicky at first.
Seven Heathcliff "Why am I doing this stupid job?"
Hook Office Hong Lu "Don't speak so softly, I'll feel homicidal"
S2 gets closer to how they really feel. The feeling of wrath comes from the feeling of "I can't accept this" - whether it's how they're being treated, how their environment is, etc.
Wrath S2 examples
LCB Heathcliff (past speculation) - Discriminated, mistreated, resenting what's happening to him
LCB Sinclair (past) - I don't want to get prosthetics
W Corp Hong Lu - Bored with his job.
And S3 wrath represents a strong rejection - they won't accept Anything they deem contrary to their own beliefs and ideals. It is a violent refusal.
Wrath S3 examples
N corp identities who are brainwashed - Kill all the dissenters and heretics.
Pequod Ishmael - "It's MY way or the HIGHWAY, god damn it!" (Throws a fit if another ID kills an enemy)
R Corp Ishmael - Hates it to the point she's looking for Singularity information of old R corp
LCB Rodya - I can't accept this armchair revolution and endless poverty. I have to kill this old windbag.
Lust
Lust in this case is a pursuit of something non-physical - a relationship, an ideal, a core element of your self. On the surface level, this can present as really wanting to be something.
Lust S1 Examples
LCB Don Quixote - Wants to become a great Fixer.
W Corp Ryoshu - Wants to be a great artist.
Sous Chef Gregor - Wants to improve his cooking.
S2 is a little stronger than just normal desire. They will willingly hurt other people or trample them to achieve their goal.
Lust S2 Examples
Tingtang Gangleader Hong Lu - Uses violence and is callous to those invading his turf
The One Who Grips Faust - Massacres Sinclair's village to get what she wants
LCB Ryoshu - Her idea of beauty ties in with violence
S3 is a little different - It's desiring something so badly on an existential level. It's pretty much what they live for.
Lust S3 Examples
R.B. Chef Ryoshu - Needs to be one of the Eight. Will stop at nothing to achieve this.
N Corp Heathcliff - Not brainwashed, doesn't really want to be. Wants to preserve his "true self".
G Corp Gregor - After an irreversible transformation, fully believes his reason to exist is to be a killing machine.
Interestingly, both LCB Heathcliff and Hong Lu have a Lust S3.
Sloth
Sloth is inaction, watching from the sidelines, not seeing what is in front of you. This can start with just simply being misguided, believing something to be true when it's not.
Sloth S1 Examples
W Corp Don Quixote - "I am working at a Wing!! CHOO CHOO!! Sally forth!!"
LCB Outis - Her piss-poor act of blind acceptance and obedience.
LCB Meursault - It is simply none of my business if Sinclair hyperventilates and vomits on the floor.
S2 sloth is more purposeful, not taking action when one should or purposefully being ignorant of reality.
LCB Faust - Does not tell Dante and the others a lot of information and doesn't stop sinners from running amok.
LCB Hong Lu - Despite being perceptive, does not seem to register bad situations as bad or react to pain appropriately.
G Corp Gregor - This feels wrong but I'll just continue with it anyway.
S3 sloth is a total loss of vision, not being able to see what's important to them. Losing sight of all they used to desire, and doing nothing about it.
Dieci IDs - Lost their memory and doesn't even remember what was most important to them.
K Corp Hong Lu - Doesn't seem to mind his total loss of freedom and autonomy, despite desiring freedom in other IDs.
LCB Yi Sang - Could not care about anything he once loved or aspired to be, until he was able to gain his wings once more.
Blade Lineage Don Quixote - Once used her strength to fight alongside her comrades, but now kills for purely her own sake.
Gluttony
Gluttony is a desire to be satisfied, whether it's something material or psychological. This can present like greed or selfishness at first sight.
S1 Gluttony Examples
LCB Rodya - "I want meat, I want money, I want to gamble!"
LCB Ryoshu - "Let me smoke. Let me do as I please."
Lantern EGO Don Quixote - Curious about the abnormalities and wanting to know more about them
S2 Gluttony is wanting more at a crucial point in their life, or desiring more than they could chew. It could also mean getting hooked into something or addicted.
S2 Gluttony Examples
LCB Ishmael - "I quit my job, I need something that's not labour hellscape... Hm? That hag can sure talk..."
R Corp Heathcliff - Began deriving enjoyment from killing
N Corp Don Quixote - Didn't even need the brainwashing, got hooked onto the N Corp ideology herself
S3 Gluttony seems to be the final stage of seeking what they desire - being satisfied, even when they shouldn't be.
S3 Gluttony Examples
Tingtang Gangleader Hong Lu - Seems completely happy and enjoying himself
Seven Heathcliff - Actually learned to like his job
W Corp Hong Lu - Doesn't want praise or a raise, just fine with how things are now
Gloom
Gloom represents pain, and how it affects how the person treats their situation or other people. On the surface level, they may appear melancholic or having given up.
S1 Gloom Examples
LCB Yi Sang, LCB Gregor - Self explanatory.
Rosespanner Meursault - Crushed by work
R Corp Ishmael - Headache, pain, does not like it here
S2 Gloom is a moment of despair, when something in their heart was broken. This may also involve guilt and inflicting pain.
W Corp Don Quixote and most W Corp IDs (Except Hong Lu and Ryoshu) - The shocking reveal of what W Corp really is.
N Corp Heathcliff - "What the hell am I even doing??"
Lobotomy EGO Heathcliff - "All my friends are dead."
S3 Gloom can represent letting their pain affect how they treat others. Lashing out, being insensitive to others' pain, or simply giving up and accepting the hurt as inescapable.
W Corp Yi Sang - Abandoned hopes for freedom, just wants it to hurt a little less
G Corp Outis - Knows she cannot escape the unfair treatment
LCB Ishmael - Lashes out and hurts others because she is deeply hurting, making it more painful for her too
Pride
Pride is the belief that they are different from other people, and so the rules don't apply to them. This can seem as arrogance at first, even if they are not actually like that.
S1 Pride Examples
LCB Sinclair - Rich boy 1
LCB Hong Lu - Rich boy 2
LCB Faust - Doesn't hide that she thinks she's better than everyone else
S2 Pride can contain disdain for other people, and believing they are better than those around them. Therefore, their actions can be excused in their eyes.
S2 Pride Examples
LCB Meursault and LCB Outis - Competent and they know it themselves. Outis thinks of her comrades as dirt and points and laughs when they die.
W Corp Ryoshu - Her art comes from chopping up the dead and deformed passengers, doesn't give a single shit about them
LCB Rodya - Believed she was special enough to make a difference and split the hag's skull.
S3 pride goes a step further - their own desires take precedence over anyone else's. They may even see other people's lives as literally the same as a blade of grass. If they want something, they'll trample everything and anything.
S3 Pride Examples
The One Who Grips Faust - Probably doesn't even give a shit about the grand ideology or her minions. Just did it because she could, and wanted to.
The Middle Little Sister Don Quixote - "I can kill anyone who disrespected my organization!"
LCB Ryoshu - Has the littlest regard for human life.
Envy
Envy can start out with the simple desire to surpass someone, to become better than others. To want more than what other people have.
S1 Envy Examples
Tingtang Gangleader Hong Lu - Began wanting to be stronger, to have more power.
LCB Heathcliff - Rich bastards are annoying, they don't deserve it more than I do
Shi Ishmael - Just wants to survive in a world of dog eat dog
S2 envy is the need to be better than what you once were, to surpass yourself and get something accomplished.
S2 Envy Examples
LCB Yi Sang - Bettered his own craft and created the mirror.
Pequod Members - Lay their past self to rest, and opted to hunt the whale.
R.B. Chef Ryoshu - Wants to make better and better pies
S3 Envy is the result of their desire to surpass - or that they have accomplished something, but with a heavy price.
S3 Envy Examples
W Corp Ryoshu - Extremely powerful, but her sword will suck up her health if she doesn't charge it properly.
R Corp Heathcliff - Gained insane power but lost something important to him in the process.
LCB Sinclair - Was able to avoid getting prosthetics but his whole family dead.
Pequod Heathcliff - Managed to get out of the Middle but is covered in scars he can't erase.
I will continue to write more specific theories, but this is how I feel about the sin affinities right now! I'd love to write about EGO and enemies as well soon.

[nsfw below]
konig and his little partner are paired up with the 141 for whatever reason. maybe their kortac contract was bought out, who knows. all the same, they catch ghost’s eye. how could they not? some pretty little thing and their not so gentle giant. they make no show of hiding their connection. maybe things are different in paramilitary corps, because theyre very, very public with their affections in a way that makes ghost’s cheeks burn with… embarrassment? it couldn’t be jealousy, no.
he cant stop thinking about it. about them. especially after konig wears those stupid gray sweatpants in the gym. he’s huge, of course he is, bigger than simon (something at the intersection between envy and desire twists, wet and ugly, in his chest) and he can’t get it out of his fucking head. they’re so small, does it even fit inside of them? is konig rough, does he bully his cock inside or does he lick them slow until they’re pliant enough to take all of him? and who’s in charge, konig or his little pet? konig is so subservient to them, at their beck and call, following them around the base like a guard dog. does he kneel for them? does he do as he’s told? do they make him?
there are signs. little flashes of a bite marks on konig’s shoulder in the shower stalls, the way he brings them coffee every morning in the mess hall, made just the way they like it, without them even asking. signs of what simon knows to be rope burn on konig’s wrists.
he’s caught staring. because he never made much of an effort to hide it in the first place, if we’re being honest.
and konig and his little friend share a look. and simon swears he sees the giant’s eyes crinkle into a smile under the mask.

I would like to request a headcanon gn!reader x hashiras (please include giyu and rengoku, others are your choice) where the reader is a childhood friend they have a crush on but they never tell her why she already is in a relationship, and the day after their friend tells them about their partner's strange behavior they find out that their friend's partner is cheating on her with someone else, what would they do?
Giyuu | Kyojuro | Sanemi [X Reader]
In which their childhood crush is cheated on by their current s/o.
Tumblr media
Giyuu
Genuinely appalled by your s/o
They are total opposites, your lover being extremely outgoing, popular, and extremely egotistical
But you seemed happy with him, so Giyuu figured it was his fault for feeling so jealous, insecure maybe?
Even still, he couldn't help but want to snap back when your s/o made a sniding remark about you, or jokes about horrible things regarding you to him
He didn't find them funny, but he didn't want to ruin anything for you
He was likely by your side when you both found your s/o pressed up against another, which Giyuu was quick to shield you from
It broke his heart feeling you sob into his shirt, and trying to claw away to get a look, but he knew better than to let you hurt yourself more
Would carry you home and let you release energy however you need, just calmly waiting for you to feel better or to need his company again
Giyuu would love to just, tear that loser apart, but he opts instead to show their photograph to some of his corps members that knew you
Yeah, your ex got more than one beating, and they are never safe anywhere in Tokyo, but Giyuu believes that's for the better
Kyojuro
The hashira is very familiar with what love can do to people, but he would admit that he'd never seen someone screw up so badly
As much as he wanted you for himself, Kyojuro had gone out of his way to help your lover set up dates he knew you'd like, and hint at the things you'd like around special dates
While he never enjoyed your s/o, he assumed it was purely out of envy, and left it at that
Of course, he consoles you every moment, and takes this moment to treat you how he felt you deserved
Home cooked meals, warm blankets, heated rice pouches for comfort, sweets, and any attention you asked for
You were strong, and he knew you'd be on your feet soon enough, it was all about patience
One day, while getting back from a mission he saw your ex with someone else, already smothering one another
Now he doesn't condone violence...
But he did loudly exclaim something good enough to scare your ex's new muse away
" Oh my! If it isn't y/n's cheating ex! I'm happy to see you have found someone else to toy with already! Perhaps you would like some more advice on how to court?"
Your ex was left with a hefty slap, albeit not from Kyojuro, but good enough!
Sanemi
The moment he catches wind of it-
" Fuck! Fuck that ASSHOLE! I'm going to fucking KILL THAT USELESS- " its all bleeped out in post
You mean the world to him, you were one of the only constants he had from his past, and the only who'd never hurt him
You didn't deserve this, especially not the cheating fuck trying to convince you it was your fault, that you werent good enough
This wasn't going to slide
Your ex can expect their door being broken down first thing in the morning, and a prompt punch right to the skull
Broken nose, busted lip, black eye, and one unconscious person later, Sanemi is stomping out and leaves the door open just so the bugs can get in while he's at it
Why would he handle anything peacefully? It's not like you'll know it was him anyways
Okay so you totally knew, because he's your only friend who would do that, but for once you let your passive side slide and didn't say anything about it
Actually, it helped you feel loads better
Besides, the name only comes out a week later when he hears the house is now abandoned, and the dumbass is long gone
Tumblr media
Authors Note - I got a bit lost with the wording of the request switching between pronouns so I hope I got this right!

fuck it, hero corp au
Pour ceux qui connaissent pas Hero Corp: prenez ça essentiellement comme un super hero au, le truc à savoir ici c'est que HeroCorp est une organisation gérant des super-héros, leur donnant un salaire, des missions, et protection après qu'ils aient pris leur retraite ("protection" voulant dire "mise au placard"). Aussi le QG d'Hero Corp est basé à Montréal.
AU Infos!!!
Los Santos est une ville fictive inventée par Hero Corp, utilisée pour identifier qui appartient à Hero Corp/possède du savoir sur Hero Corp. Elle n'a pas de position géographique réelle
LSPD: Groupement temporaire de super-héros d'Hero Corp sous couverture, prétendant être des policiers venus de Los Santos pour des vacances. Les plus récentes additions ne sont pas au courant de la fausse raison de leur présence, ce qui fait que des raisons contradictoires sont données, ce qui n'aide pas des masses leur couverture. En mission pour stopper deux gangs de super-vilains.
LSMS: Branche médicale d'Hero Corp qui existe depuis sa création, elle possède très peu de membres, car tout le monde veut jouer aux super-héros plutôt qu'au médecin. Non seulement ça, mais très rapidement l'existence de cette branche est oubliée, ayant été créée à la dernière minute pour pouvoir approuver l'existence d'Hero Corp. La majorité des employés ignorent qu'ils ont des soins gratuits. Le directeur a récemment décidé de rendre le LSMS plus proactif pour rappeler son existence.
Vagos et Families: Les deux gangs de super-vilains terrorisant Montréal depuis peu; le LSPD est censé les arrêter avant qu'ils ne s'en prennent aux civils, cependant ils sont tellement occupés à s'affronter l'un l'autre qu'au final les civils sont très peu atteints, et les deux gangs se sabotent mutuellement.
Les Pichon: Une famille avec des pouvoirs qui ne veut pas s'aligner avec Hero Corp pour diverses raisons.
La bande à Cox: Groupe de super-vilains récemment créé, ils essayent de se faire un nom mais sont ultra incompétents.
Mon Torez: Une petite entreprise récente qui vend divers services, notamment de négociations. L'entreprise vend aussi du vin produit par l'un des deux patrons. Étrangement, si on regarde qui est propriétaire du bâtiment de l'entreprise pourtant dite indépendante, on peut voir qu'il appartient à Hero Corp.

Juste moi qui pensais avant de dormir
-English version-
Wukong wasn't sure if he wanted to cry or scream. His whole body felt like a heart beating too hard against his chest. He looked at the ground with anger. Then, his hands, these helpless hands which had been unable to stop Macaque.
“That was stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid!”
Wukong grabbed each side of her head and pulled on her hair. His body collapsed as he screamed, his forehead pressed against his shadow. It was the last vestige of the portal through which his friend had just spit him out to escape a punishment he never saw coming. He still saw Macaque pulling him into the portal just as the mountain fell on him. He saw him smile at him so kindly. Yet Wukong could hear a mocking.
"I told you so" in the back of his head. He just had time to see Macaque use his magic to wear a glamor that would change the shadow monkey into the person he had tried to protect. Wukong couldn't forget how black changed to orange, the six ears disappeared to become two, and the pupils looked like his own. Wukong cursed himself. What made him oppose Buddah?
He looked up at the place where the mountain should be where Macaque should definitely be stuck. Should he go see him? Would Macaque hold it against him? Did he even want to see it? Wukong's heart sank. He couldn't go back. He didn't have the right...he...wasn't ready for it. He couldn't stand Macaque's anger. Not after he was promised a life of happiness.
“What if he died under this mountain?”
Wukong's nails scratched the earth of the flower and fruit mountain, and a short chuckle escaped him. No...Macaque had demonic longevity. He won't die...right? Wukong thought for a moment before biting the inside of his lips. He was still going to make sure to feed Macaque every day...if the shadow monkey didn't be too angry with him.
