#the last page is a shock

[naralanis]

Fuck this meeting, here's a sneak peek of Perhaps Chapter 48

“Bella,” Narcissa murmured, dejected. “Don’t do this. You’re my sister – I'm, I’m with you, wherever you are.”   Bellatrix’s posture seemed to relax marginally, but not her eyes. Her dark gaze seemed to burn with an altogether different kind of rage.  “Are you, Cissy? Are you really?”   Her eyes turned to the remnants of Narcissa’s desk, now lying in chunks and splinters over the marble. “Who were you writing in such a hurry, huh?”  Hermione could see Young Narcissa’s jaw working, clenching so tight there was an audible click. Her blue eyes were solid, impenetrable walls of ice.   “Severus. I was writing to Severus for an anti-emetic elixir – something stronger than what Healer Fairweather can give me. That’s all.”   The lie was desperate at best – that was plainly evident even to Hermione. She had no doubt it was even less convincing to Bellatrix. “Severus. You were writing to Severus for help with your nausea.”   Narcissa nodded, now committed to the lie.   “You know me, Bella,” Narcissa stalled, forcing her features to freeze into petrified nonchalance. “I’ve always had a such weak stomach.”   There was a heavy, tense pause, tense as the taut fraying ropes mooring a ship to shore through a storm. Bellatrix cut through it with a chilling cackle.   “Quite right, quite right, Cissy,” she chuckled darkly, threatening as opposed to amused. “I’ll pass along your wishes to dear old Sev.”

why does ptg have the worst luck of anyone in the history of the world 😭 like in what world does it make sense for hui to be a contestant on boy's planet 🤨?

it rlly feels like when btob went on kingdom to me, but worse 😭 like ppl pointed out that he's gonna be judged by idols he's both senior to, AND produced for 😭 also this tweet made me laugh:

literallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy in what fucking mirror universe does it make sense for hui to be a trainee on this show when he fucking birthed wanna one like honestly this is genuinely humiliating. what the fuck is wrong with the industry that a post-military 30yro with a well established career and an active group goes on a trainee survival show. it's so fucking unhinged. at least with btob kingdom wasn't about breaking down the groups and making a new one, it was just about making the best performance, but the fact that these senior groups are being subjected to this is so...................

#its so fucking horrifying and humiliating like i watched one of ptg's rtk stages last night and fucking CRIED #bc he's going on a show where he has to compete with kids half his age??????? HUI?????????? #i slept on the news and i still havent processed this and now like a million things have happened its all too much #glad we're all on the same page of being in shock over this 😭 #text #answers #im really gonna burn mnet to the ground the produce shows have fucking RUINED the industry im so serious #i told nana last night but they're literally trying to make a carbon copy of x1 in order to speedrun the most corporate kpop group #its so soulless i hate this i hate everything this is a fucking hate crime and i cant believe they dragged my nine.i boys into it too!!!!! #boys planet

home (it's where ever you are)

Home for Luke has never really been a place.

Even when he was little he’d always thought about home as wherever his parents where. The place where he’d see them dancing in the kitchen to whatever was playing on the radio, where his dad would ruffle his hair when he came home from work, where his mom was cooking in the kitchen. 

And when he’d met Alex and Reggie, home had expanded to them as well. He handed over little parts of his heart and his soul and trusted them to keep it safe. His mom always used to tell him to be careful about who he gave his heart away to, who he trusted, people could always let you down. Hurt you even if they didn’t mean too. 

So Luke decided to hand over the rest of his heart to music. To make it a home between the strings of his guitar and leave pieces of it in the pages of his notebooks. Because maybe his mom was right, and one day someone would take the piece of his heart he’d given them and break it, but music would never do that to him. 

Music had only ever been his safe space after all. 

He was 8 the first time that he asked his dad about the music playing in their house, when he learned about bands and singers and lyrics. And about the guitar lost to the attic from a dream that had long since been given up on. Luke had spent the rest of his day scribbling words that rhyme, and some that don’t, across the blank sheets of paper that his dad gave him, and asked questions until his head hit his pillow that night. 

He dreamt of stages and lights and a guitar heavy in his hands, of lyrics that float through the air sung by a voice he can’t quite make out. 

He was 12 when he got his first guitar and spent hours, and days, and weeks teaching himself the songs that his parents used to dance around their kitchen too. He plays one of them for them on a Saturday night, fingers aching and guitar still a little too big and handwritten sheet music at his feet. 

They had clapped and smiled and asked what else he could play and Luke had suddenly realised what people meant when they talked about finding what they were good at. Finding what they were meant to do. 

It’s the day he really falls in love with music and decides he’ll do anything to feel like that every day. To make people smile and request something else. 

He was 14 and had just finished writing his first song that he thinks is actually good, when he asked Reggie and Alex if they wanted to start a band. Alex had been playing drums for the school band for a year and Reggie was just itching for a reason to play the bass he’d found in his grandparents house. 

So they clear out his parent’s garage, and when they get annoyed, they cobble together pocket money and odd jobs and find a garage to rent instead. They asked Bobby to join when they’re two months in and just shy of 15 and realise they need another sound, and that four on stage just looks better then three.

The first time they play together, after false starts and out of time choruses, that first full run through that goes without a hitch tells Luke that this is right. It’s where he’s supposed to be, with the people he’s supposed to be with, they were going to be legends. 

He’s 17 when the fights with his parents got too much, when his mom stopped listening and even his dad couldn’t meditate anymore. They wanted him to finish school, to go to college, to have a back up plan, all Luke heard is that they didn’t believe in him, in his boys, in their dreams. It’s as he rides his bike away, not even looking over his shoulder that he remembered what his mom had told him once. 

About being careful of who you gave your heart too.

He’d never thought his first true heartbreak would be his mom not believing in him. 

Luke fell in love with music how some people fall in love with a person. 

It's not until he’s 17 and dead and a ghost and alive again that he realises music has always been a person to him. He just hadn’t met her yet.

He’s 17 and standing in a garage they’d once rented as the sun is coming up, painting the room in shades of yellow and gold, shining on Julie Molina as she sings. Bright and clear and full of more emotions then he knows how to name. He’s known her less than twelve hours but Luke knows her. 

Knows her voice and her music and her smile. Thinks maybe he’s known it all his life without really knowing it. 

Luke remembers being a kid and deciding to give his heart to music, to trust it would keep it safe and whole. That home to him was always going to be where the people he loved were, the people he trusted with his very soul. Hearing Julie sing for the first time feels like coming home.

#julie and the phantoms #julie molina #luke patterson #jatp #jatp fics #what's this you ask? well i don't rightly no either actually ghfjds #in my attempt to over come the writers block from hell we're just tip tapping anything on a page and hoping for the best😌 #though i will say i fully started this like. last year i think? so if the tones are totally different that is why lmao #oh no another fic where julie is music is home to luke what a shock

i have to say that the depiction of trauma in the last of us is so beautifully and tragically done. i would be shocked if they hadn't consulted with a trauma psychologist on it because the accuracy blew me away. i am mental health worker and i have seen the look in Ellie's eyes and that distance in so many people, Bella Ramsey did a truly amazing job. joel's dialogue about his suicide attempt? i have had that exact conversation with people. major kudos to Bella and Pedro for their portrayal + the writers and also whoever decided to glance at the DSM

#i dont see a psychological consultant listed on the IMDB page #but i would be shocked if they didnt at least chat with a trauma therapist #the last of us #tlou #the last of us hbo #tlou hbo #bella ramsey #pedro pascal

WTF! #idk yall i dont like where the story is going 😭 #for me it feels like Gege's in a rush to tie up loose ends #im just. not into the story as much anymore #and its not bc of Gojo i just genially. after Kashimo and his 0.2 sec defeat and now w kenjakus #idk like. if ur gonna throw a curve ball make it impactful?? not just shock value??? #someone more eloquent in english back m #someone more eloquent in english back me up here pls #anyway i. hm. no. #burrito talks #delete later

i miss her every day of my life

#wild chapter this month What did you say happened to shuumei #nekuyan #those last few pages were so good his shock at finding out that guy he supposedly hates went out of his way to help other punks beaten up i #an abandoned warehouse and got crushed by the unstable rubble #i wonder how she'll take it #duck rants about something

[timespenttogethercomic]

he ended up changing it

it feels silly to post the same song again, even though this page is explicitly about the lyrics, so here is the runner up for last page

sorry this is so funny to me. google says ennie's face spells 'YON'

#original comic #thomas does not identify as mouse-esque #previous page was written specifically for it got old so changing the song last minute was not in the cards #however i was working on the previous page with youtube shuffle on and i'd only ever heard the first half of paradise by the dashboard ligh #and i genuinely had to pauze and open my mouth in shock for a moment. i did not know it was Like That #it fits. is what i'm saying #'open up your eyes i got a big surprise it'll feel alright' is probably also something thomas said with his mouth at some point #that being said. thomas is many things but he's Not meatloaf #also ennie looks so good with his hair up i've changed my mind about him and i've decided he's a catch that anyone would be lucky to have

[dashiellqvverty]

this is wild to me my first thought was WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU GUYS ARENT LISTENING TO TYLER GLEN

#tyler glenn from neon trees solo album excommunication!!!!!!!!! #the rest im not AS shocked by although you people arent listening to keiynan londsdale??? you should!!!!!! #didnt include the songs bc theyre not stuff i listen to as often i was like what is that doing there i played it like once last week?? #except for s*xual by dog park dissidents which is def my most obscure song bc its not even on their main page #bc its from like a collaboration album or something #and the lyrics arent on genius or anything #anyway. #r.txt

okay so having reviewed... most? of the spamton sweepstakes lore stuff since i missed most of it cause i was busy at the time ive concluded that some people need to remember that deltarune ch 1 was released as a .exe file called “survey program” downloaded off of an objectively kind of sketchy site after a series of cryptic tweets and no other fanfare or warning. so idk why im seeing people surprised hed release important lore information through some weird arg-adjacent-slash-auction event. this is pretty standard par for the course toby fox behavior actually

#im catching up from the weekend #cause i was either sleeping or doing homework p much the whole time #thanks to quill showing me some of the actual pages i didnt get to see them i still dont 100% know how to get to them #if theyre still up? idk what the situation is there #im half asleep so this probably. doesnt make much sense #but like. at this point. if you are surprised/shocked by toby fox doing weird shit with deltarune meta #where have you been the last four years #i found out about deltarune bc my ex kept showing me the tweets and then a very frantic text the night it dropped #for the first hour of gameplay i wasnt sure what the fuck was happening and that any minute now it would just stop and be revealed as some #odd ruse #only to discover it would qualify as a wholeass game even w/o the promise of a ch 2 #for free legally just there on the internet for all to find #i was not completely sure it was not going to be a virus until i got a thumbsup from my ex cause my antivirus flagged it #like would have missed this w/o that text #anyway im going to sleep now but like #man. every time toby does something theres going to be some group of people baffled #BAFFLED that he would reveal information in this fashion

idc what anybody says about inhumanity. that scene immediately following karnak's suicide where medusa is just standing there listlessly staring out the window and thinking about how much she's lost and how everything on earth seems to be dangerous and that she's terrified most of all about the fact that she knows she's going to have to go through even more and lose even more. and even with all of that crystal still calls her "your majesty" and in uncanny inhumans medusa mentions that crystal sees her as the queen first and her sister second. i dont have a joke or anything i just genuinely think it's one of the most gut wrenching things i've read and i dont think it's talked about enough.

#its 2am and im crying over medusa #the way shes STANDING fucks me up!!! its so fucked up!!!! #and do NOT think im bashing my girl crys. she was traumatized too #i know inhumans comics tend to deal with some heavy subjects but i rlly do think that one page HITS #like theres always that One Scene that makes me go OUGH but inhumanity frozen in shock medusa is. OUGHHHH #its horrible and traumatic and TERRIFYING and i love it and hate it and when was medusa hugged last again #medusalith amaquelin #karnak mander azur #crystalia amaquelin #cw suicide

[septembersghost]

Is there a chance that this is simply a break?? They could get back together

never say never, but i really don't think we can speculate about that when we have no context for what happened and this was clearly...very sudden

#the grammys were barely two months ago and we knew all about the afterparty #like...there's barely three weeks between his bday and when tour started #that's part of why it's so shocking. it's out of nowhere. we just don't know anything. and we probably won't #so all we can do is feel for them and hope they're okay 😔 #anonymous #letterbox #thrown out speeches #don’t read the last page

what,,, the fuck,,, wh,,,, the,,,, FUCK,,,, WHAT THE FUCK

#the great ace attorney chronicles #TGAAC spoilers #tgaac2 spoilers #Klint Van Zieks #like I get that he was technically the professor #but I NEVER made the connection that the professor = moriarty #i mean moriarty actually has very very little significance in the books #he was pretty much introduced just so sacd could kill off Sherlock #but…. klint really seemed like a good guy who was trying to do what he thought was right #like he just wanted to do the right thing #the note he left behind was not the last will and testament of a criminal mastermind who is involved in one way or another with every crime #it was a cornered man who had tried his best and failed and was now up against the wall #anyway I’m shocked #queue takumi defense squad #okay #okay hold up I went and looked #i went to moriarty’s page #and it sent me to a page for moriarty in other media #which under the video game tag #says that he doesn’t appear himself but the name the professor is a reference #so I don’t think Klint was supposed to be moriarty #but idk #this is the characters in Ace Attorney page btw
