States as Rainbow Kitten Suprise songs, part 1
How to: Friend, Love, Freefall
Pacific Love - Alaska/Hawai'i
No look no look platonic or romantic he is a simp for her
Hold my hand darling
Pull me in your waters
When you call my name, I'll be on my way
Mission to Mars - California
Ohhhhhhh my god oh my god. Ok, so. The song generally is about a performer, presumably in a space like Hollywood, fighting hard to cling to their 15 minutes of fame, and trying desperately to stay in the spotlight. Please. Please. I wanna do a whole analysis on this oh my god
But basically, Hollywood Cali
Heard it booming at parties, whispered in homes
The pundits on the radio won't leave it alone
I heard it once, heard it twice
Heard it well enough to tell
They say the mission to Mars, is destined to fail now
And I love how in the end, the last part is the same sentiment, but hopeful
Fever Pitch - Utah/Illithiya
Them being good for eachother my beloved and him being a simp, but more then that, her inevitable death. Her lifespan that will end before his and the bittersweet in every happy moment tainted just a bit by the future. And his hope that maybe, maybe he might be able to join her in an eternity
Hallelujah
The iron king sings a song for the lover
The leaver, the lonely, and like
Young love waits
If I can then I'll meet you at the gate of St. Peter
It's called: Freefall - Gov and California
I love when I can make a song apply to a character in 2 different ways
1, Gov is the devil referenced in the song. This works both in how Gov is Not a good character, but also in the way the Devil interacts with the speaker. Both comforting and concerned, as well as a more tough love approach
2, he is the speaker. The one who stays up late and isolates himself from others and won't admit when he's wrong
Called to the Devil and the Devil said
Hey! Why you been calling this late?
It's like 2 A.M. and the bars all close at 10 in hell, that's a rule I made
Anyway, you say you're too busy saving everybody else to save yourself
And you don't want no help, oh well
That's the story to tell
Now with Cali, he is most definitely just the speaker. It is very much about the self destruction and unlike Gov where it'smore about never ending work and a deepset exhaustionthat won't leave it's more violent, especially with friendships, and the inability to recognize his own wrongs
Some day's end when I need a few friends
Now and again I could never hope to keep them
Thought to give friends what I thought that they wanted
Never had they needed a good friend as I've been
Don't get me venting on friends who resent you
'Cause all you've ever done is been a noose to hang on to
They thought was a necklace and reckless they fell into hell
Where you both hang with nothing to do but
Holy War - Texas
Is it mostly him cause it mentions Dallas? Yeah. But also the parts that allude to a relationship
I see it said in your eyes
All the time
You ain't gotta tell me you're fine babe
They call that Holy War in Dallas
They call for Holy War
On us
Matchbox - Calivada
Quite literally going feral I cannot use words to explain how it fits them just look at the lyrics like a nice, soft love, but maybe a but bitter as it is ended, or ending, due to someone wanting more in life and accidentally leaving a relationship in ruins but maybe it's more a mutual thing, left and discarded, all the while thinking "Well, it's not all on me. They have to talk to me too" And leads them to a premature end to a good thing that maybe wasn't that good maybe it was rotted under the surface and needed work that was always ignored but dammit it was theirs
Or maybe I'm looking too much into this
I also love that it references Mission To Mars
You're a master of passive-aggressive magic tricks
Like, that's not a card that I would've picked but it's your life to live like how you'd like to live
You're type of cool that likes to talk a lot
I'm the type of fool to listen
Salutations to Apollo
While the Mission To Mars is surely soon to follow
And you bit my lip when I kissed you
I bit my tongue not to tell you that I miss you
We shared my blood for an instant and I would trade some more to have it back
Yeah I would trade all of this for that
Everybody I know wants to be a star
Just above the atmosphere flying high
Just above the average fear to try
Keeping me grounded, holding me down for miles
Everybody I know wants the gleam
In designer tops and ten dollar magazines
Infatuated with the beams, you go crazy when I speak
I'm the asshole who keeps laughing at our predicaments
Like this ain't the life that I should've picked
But it's the cards we're dealt we play with
Shit
Moody Orange - Florsiana
I dunno what it us, it's just them. It's chaotic and a rush, and a constant movement and maybe some behaviors in the sing encouraged by the other are not healthy, but there is love there, and it is pure through all the ups and downs. They are a team, and partners, and willingly to try again despite it all
I love the way you know how
I love the way you walk out
I love the way you shut it
Down
Now
Paint it moody orange
Does help that Florida loves oranges
Hide - NJ/NY
When related to specifically them, a denial of feelings and a fear of being vulnerable
I hate you more than I miss you
That's not true, I'd hate to miss you
Anywhere I go anywhere you've been before
I get the chance to say goodbye
Or hello I mean you don't call you don't write
You know I've been up for forty days and forty nights and all my fears have multiplied
By the silence in your eyes
Better hide your love, hide your love
Don't let it slip away, don't let it slip away
When It Lands - Calivada
Peak Calivada. In the middle of their on and iff relationship when everything is good, and sure maybe the good feelings are just the partying and the rush, and sure maybe things have started to fall apart again, maybe there's a longing, a deep issue of missing the other so much but never seeming to be around d them that ruins it everytime but maybe they don't have to think about that right now
Sugar city
Pretty magic
Got me good vibes
Thank God I ain't driving
Traffic vision
Blurred blue bleedin'
That's a black out ladder
It don't matter anyhow
I'm climbing
Keep my good vibes
And check coats for cool climates
In common we got
Good friends rolled light on split ends
Pretty magic
Traffic addicts
And I never call back when my friends all looking at me in the car
'Cause it'd be all they wanna talk about
Oh you tryna to get a deal? A deal? A deal
Sorry on the real
But my eyes and my ears don't work well
And the floor keeps sliding out my heels
I can't feel 'em am I still dreaming?
Painkillers - Colorado
Just generally, him and addictions and struggles with living
Living just comes with a bit of heartache
Heartache comes with a bit of young faith
Faith stays young till your heart get broken
Hope grows up to become someday
Recktify - New York
Just- The fast paced tempo and the lyrics that barely have time to breath and the constant shift in topics lends itself to the atmosphere of a city like NYC, and the temperament of New York himself
Especially the end, it reads to me like overstimulation maybe in a meeting and it's so much and going so fast and maybe he's arguing only to end up being pulled away from a fight He barely remembers starting
You're making a scene
You're making a scene baby
To wreck the scene
To wreck the scene
To rekt
Possum Queen - California/NY/Florida
And this is a thing to be further expanded on, but New York and his failed relationships in the ways of being a little bit unstable and commitment issues
Like him spending winters with Florida, having flings, but never settling and fearing his touch in any other season. Or a past relationship with California where they both were shit and maybe it was the intimacy of knowing eachothers issues so deeply but it's missed. Not in the way they'd do it again, but that they cannot hate eachother, and they loved eachother while it lasted, and maybe they'd be able to try again but for know it's tired smiles and small limes that allude to knowing more then they let on
This will last forever
And when it doesn't, love it for what it is
Don't miss it the way I do
The way I used to
If you love it, love it for what it's been
Don't miss it
Don't wish it back
Don't wish it'd last 'cause if it doesn't
Love it for what it is
Don't miss it the way I do
Don't miss it
Don't miss it the way I miss you
Polite Company - Mississippi
If I'm being honest most of this was cause ballerina Sippi, but honestly vibes anyway
I only want what I can't have
If you love me, give me nothing
Nothing

i feel like i've sent you these thoughts before but lowkey feral over how much this is me trying is a wilhelm song likeee
I've been having a hard time adjusting I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting I didn't know if you'd care if I came back I have a lot of regrets about that
(his mentality after coming back from break)
And maybe I don't quite know what to say But I'm here in your doorway
(when he went to tell simon that he was giving him the choice on their future)
I just wanted you to know That this is me trying I just wanted you to know That this is me trying
(just his general pleading with simon or his mom or the general public)
They told me all of my cages were mental So I got wasted like all my potential
(not allowing himself to accept his anxiety)
And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad I have a lot of regrets about that
(the fight in s1 ep 5)
anywayssss i love wilhelm and i love this song
-miels 💜✨
MIELS you won't believe the sound I made when I saw another long ask about taylor lyrics and wille <333
agrre with all of your points, this song is SO him
also I want to bring i the bridge because oh ym god
and it's hard to be at a party when I feel like an open wound it's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you you're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town !!!!!!
"it's hard to be at a party" party for the third years in s2ep1 when wille sees simon for the first time (also applies to simon because it hurt more to see wille)
"it's hard to be anywhere these days when all I want is you" s2ep1 scene where simon asks for space and s2ep3 lonely ones scene where wille's walking around alone
"you're a flashback in a film reel on the one screen in my town" horror movie night kiss flashbacks??? hello??
AND the intro because!!!!!
I've been having a hard time adjusting I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting I didn't know if you'd care if I came back I have a lot of regrets about that pulled the car off the road to the lookout could've followed my fears all the way down and maybe I don't quite know what to say but I'm here in your doorway
"I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting" could be wille doing kinda okay during s1ep1-3 after he meets simon, then erik dying and everything spiralling, or wille having simon - "the shiniest wheels" - and then their relationship stopping for a moment in s2, like the wheels "rusting" (yes I know the song isn't actually abt wilmon but the lit gay in me is still going to find parallels and metaphors that relate to them!!)
"I didn't know if you'd care if I came back/ I have a lot of regrets about that" ooooo could be wille's perspective during the denial because he didn't think it would matter if he said anything, or s2 wille returning to hillerska
"pulled the car off the road to the lookout/could've followed my fears all the way down" this is just wille's mental health issues and him spiralling after the sircus kiss during like s2ep3 and 4
"and maybe I don't quite know what to say/but I'm here in your doorway" YES THIS IS WILLE AT THE END OF S2EP4

american idiot <3
cause on this blog we’re✨ basic✨
american idiot
“Well maybe I'm the faggot America / I'm not a part of a redneck agenda”
as someone from redneck america this line started the obsession. the whole song is just soo relevant not necessarily a good thing but… bonus billies cute dance when he sings “do the propaganda”
jesus of suburbia
“I’m the son of rage and love”
as you so accurately pointed out today screaming at the top of your lungs that will make you feel better.
“And there's nothing wrong with me This is how I'm supposed to be In a land of make believe That don't believe in me”
oooh these just so much in that lyric. so many ways that applies to me. 
“At the center of the earth In the parking lot Of the 7-11 where I was taught The motto was just a lie”
“It says home is where your heart is But what a shame Cause everyone's heart Doesn't beat the same It's beating out of time”
just wow. again so powerful. it just makes me feel less alone yknow?
“Everyone's so full of shit / Born and raised by hypocrites”
rather self-explanatory. i have one other words for it. 
“Are we demented or am I disturbed? The space that's in between insane and insecure”
“Nobody's perfect and I stand accused For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse”
i’ve been told i’m not normal a lot recently, these lyrics helps me to remember that just maybe that’s ok and “not normal” is normal
“To run, to run away To find, what you believe”
“And I leave behind This hurricane of fucking lies”
fun fact: my family is religious. no further comment 
“Running away from pain / When you've been victimized”
i actually can’t put into words how much this line means to me 
holiday
one of my favorite songs/videos! green day car!!the rhythm!!!!! billie doing the sign of the cross!!!!!! the car surfing!!!! billies platform-ish shoes!!!!! ✨drag tré✨ nerd, drunk and Elvis(?) billie!!! and ofc mikes facial expressions! bassline god the bassline. “The representative from California has the floor” and everything after makes me feral i scream it every time😌
boulevard of broken dreams
the guitar part gets me everytime🥺
“Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me / 'Til then, I walk alone”
🥺🥺🥺
billies ah ah ah ah thing is so beautiful. the whole song is so beautiful.
are we the waiting
“Starry nights City of lights coming down over me Skyscrapers Stargazers in my head”
pretty pretty pretty!!! “are we we are” vocals are just beautiful. i also love how it ties into jesus of suburbia 
st. jimmy
“I'm the patron saint of the denial With an angel face and a taste for suicidal Cigarettes and ramen and a little bag of dope I am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allan Poe”
probably very concerning how much i love these lyrics. i love the character and yelling out this entire song🥰
AND DONT WEAR IT OUT
give me novacaine
“Drain the pressure from the swelling / This sensation's overwhelming”
anxiety core <3
she’s a rebel
the energy!!!!!
“She's a rebel, she's a saint She's salt of the earth and she's dangerous She's a rebel, vigilante Missing link on the brink of destruction”
!!!!!! love this character too
extraordinary girl
not my favorite but i still love it!
letterbomb
!!!!
“Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you Having fun”
🙃
i always forget how much i love this one!
“And don't look back You're not the Jesus of Suburbia The St. Jimmy is a figment of Your father's rage and your mother's love Made me the idiot America”
concept album my beloved🥰
wake me up when september ends
“Summer has come and passed The innocent can never last”
“Here comes the rain again Falling from the stars Drenched in my pain again Becoming who we are”
billie🥺
homecoming
“He says, "We're fucked up" and we're not the same And mom and dad are the ones you can blame”
“Jimmy died today He blew his brains out into the bay In this state of mind, it's my own private suicide”
“Well, nobody cares Well, nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares? Well, nobody cares Well, nobody cares Does anyone care if nobody cares?”
“Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you havin' fun Everyone left you Nobody's like you They're all out without you havin' fun”
“The 7-11 to the fear of breaking down So send my love a letter bomb”
“Nobody likes you Everyone left you They're all out without you havin' fun”
HOW IT ALL TIES TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whatshername
“I made a point to burn all of the photographs”
this line hits so hard
“I remember the face But I can't recall the name”
i remember the name but i can’t recall the face
“Forgetting you, but not the time”
i have a couple people in mind
sven you’ve made my day. thank you so much for letting me yell about this. it really means a lot to me🥺

do you have any headcanons for reggie with a nonbinary s/o?
Omg omggggggggg YES I DO
First, imma give my long hc for how they’d meet/get together and then move onto smaller hcs. (I will be referring to Reggie’s s/o as Pretty Person bc that’s how Reggie sees them and he’d be very angry if anyone denied their beauty)
So I’d imagine the boys don’t know a ton about LGBTQ+ stuff other than the ones that were more prominent in the 90’s (like gay/lesbian, trans, and mayyyybe bi, but not much more about anything else). So Julie kinda gives them a crash course at one point (Alex is ecstatic) and Reggie has this revelation of “woah..... I can like guys AND GIRLS AND IT’S NOT WEIRD??? WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME SOONER” and Julie’s like “It’s better than that... you can like ✨ANYONE✨.”
A few months go by and Reggie’s with Julie and Willie (i hc that Julie would be able to see certain other ghosts, and also Willie is already free here) and they’re just hanging out at the beach/park, and then he spots them.
“Who is ✨that✨,” Reggie asks, and he’s got this enchanted look on his face, the one he gets when he’s just like WOW PRETTY PERSON
And Willie’s like “oh, that’s *name*. They’re pretty chill.”
And Reggie manages to shake himself out of his daze for a moment and is like “‘They’. So they’re uh,,, what’s the word? Julie I forgot the word.”
And Julie laughs a little and reminds him. “Non-binary.” And she’s looking at Reggie, who’s staring at Pretty Person, and says, “why? Does Reggie have a crushhhhh???” (Because no one stares THAT much unless they have a crush).
And Reggie gets all red and is like “whattt??? Of course not! I mean, I-” He stops talking when he sees the looks he’s getting form Julie and Willie. “Okay... I mean they’re... cute.... but-”
And before he can get another words out, Willie’s like “I’ll introduce you.”
And Reggie’s nervous because talking to hot people is HARD but Willie drags him over and is like “hey there *name* this is Reggie.”
Pretty Person is very friendly (reggies like “they’re NICE TOO?!?”) and Reggie is completely flustered, and when did he get so bad at flirting? (Answer: He was never that good).
Anyways Reggie mentions the band and Pretty Person shows great interest, so Reggie invites them over to watch him and the band practice sometime. Pretty Person eagerly accepts.
Fast forward, everyone is teasing Reggie about his crush coming over. He’s embarrassed and refuses to admit how hard he’s crushing.
When Pretty Person does come over, Reggie’s surprised at how well he keeps his composure while playing. Afterward everyone is just hanging out and talking and Reggie is getting to know Pretty Person better.
Pretty Person is like “I know you’re relatively new to to the ghost stuff so sorry if you’re still touchy/sensitive about it but uh... when did you die?”
And Reggie’s like “nah it’s chill. 1995. You?”
And Pretty Person says, “2017.” Then, cautiously, “you’re uh, you’re cool with me, like, being trans/nb, right?”
And Reggie’s like “oh yeah totally don’t worry sjdhdjsjk”
It’s smooth sailing from there for the most part. A month later Pretty Person asks Reggie out. He excitedly accepts.
Now for some shorter headcanons!
Since the terms “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” don’t apply, Reggie finds the most creative way to reference his s/o. This results in “my partner in crime/my ethereal deity/my angelic counterpart” etc. etc. If he HAS to be formal he sticks with partner. His s/o loves them all.
Reggie and his partner are both bisexual so they have bi-themed EVERYTHING. Pins, flags, E V E R Y T H I N G. You can’t escape the bi.
He goes feral at anyone who deliberately misgenders his s/o (as he should).
Pretty Person plays with Reggie’s hair ALL THE TIME because “it’s fluffy!”
Pretty Person isn’t much of a singer but that doesn’t stop them and Reggie from screaming song lyrics together and from Reggie enjoying listening to them hum. He calls them his Angel of Music (Alex, Luke and Reggie all watched Phantom of the Opera fight me).
Pretty Person would be GREAT friends with Alex and very resssuring about anything regarding his sexuality (I feel like the boys would still have some negative connotations to it since they grew up in the 80s). Pretty Person ALSO helps Luke figure out what he identifies as because He Has No Idea. (Luke is pan👀)
Reggie is CONSTANTLY like “Look at my s/o. They’re the best. I love them. I don’t deserve them. They-”
Julie and Pretty Person also get along GREAT. Julie, Willie, and Pretty Person actually understand modern humor. It drives Luke, Alex, and Reggie up the WALL but none of them can be too angry bc they all love their s/o’s so much.
Pretty Person died when their hair was light pink (and it’s cut short because short pink hair is a LOOK) and they can’t change it, so they’re delighted to find out that Reggie loves it.
Reggie learns a whole lot about non-gender conforming people from his s/o. Pretty Person is happy to teach him since they know Reggie grew up in a time when it wasn’t talked about as much.
Thanks for the ask!! This was lots of fun :)
(Oh, and please excuse any typos haha)

Crazy long text ahead i warn you, just explaining some process I went through while drawing this Frank and Julie low light dying thingie, probably gonna drop some wips along the way, you may want to see… idk, dealer’s choice
!TRIGGER WARNING! Violence, death, suicide. Proceed with caution.
Well where do we begin? The inspiration maybe?
Exploring the magical world of Spotify when a band came in, one of the first songs (if not the first one) of theirs I heard was Partners in Crime by Set It Off, you know, love at first sight, love for their voices, their music style, aaand the lyrics, OH BOI the lyrics, check it out:
“You’ll never takes us alive We swore that death will do us part They’ll call our crimes a work of art You’ll never takes us alive We’ll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners”
Dunno, for two passionate juvenil delinquents that just wants trouble this line really fits to me, the dreamy couple feels invencible.
“Everybody freeze Nobody move Put the money in the bag Or we will shoot Empty out the vault And me and my doll will be on our way”
It’s actually interesting to think of the Legion robbing a bank, it’s not like troublesome teens didn’t do that in movies c’mon, it’s a small city, they wear masks, ez!
“Our paper faces flood the streets And if the heat comes close enough to burn Then we’ll play with fire ‘cause
You’ll never takes us alive”
THIS. This is so a Legion thing to say. Can you imagine their masks all around the streets as a warning like “HEY, WE ARE HERE, FEAR US” I love this
“Here we find our omnipotent outlaws Fall behind the grind tonight Left unaware that the lone store owner Won’t go down without a fight Where we gonna go He’s got us pinned Baby I’m a little scared Now, don’t you quit He’s sounded the alarm I hear the sirens closing in”
The second big moment, the adrenaline along with the instrumental is crazy for real
“The skies are black with lead-filled rain A morbid painting on display This is the night the young love died Buried at each others side”
THIS. (again) is the main theme of the drawing, it’s where the inspiration flood over me, the scene was clear in my mind, c’mon if you read till here there’s absolutely no reason not to listen to the song you won’t regret im not even getting payed to show it off
ACTUALLY FORGET IT- i just won a sub on Cody Carson’s stream WHAT IS LIFE??????? Thanks Max!!!
Tumblr media
I totally didn’t draw this while listening to the music when i should be working what are you talking about??
Hold the sketch, focus on the gun. It’s dope aint it?
Anyways, here goes the lore, along with the music lyrics I filled up the gaps, well, Suz and Joey are not around, maybe doing school stuff Julie didn’t feel like doing so she decides to hang out with Frank in the meanwhile, they’re on the lodge, bored, upset about the world cause it’s what teens do in their free time, listening to one of their mixtapes, probably Frank’s, the more hardcore one when the idea hit: what if they try some good mischief? “There’s a small banks a mile from here, want some adrenaline babe?” And oh of course she does, grab your mask, here we go
Tumblr media
Sorry, not a big legs-drawing fan…
They grab their knives, put on the masks, get ready, drive to the bank. I didnt really think this part through, the song says it all. Long story short - they rob the bank, the police arrives, the action begins.
They brought their knives, didn’t expect the cops to show up with guns, damn they didnt even know little Ormond cops had actual guns. After long minutes of hiding on the bank safe the couple decides to fight their way out, they would be more useful alive than dead so laws could apply, but that went out of question once Frank stabbed the first bank employee on his triumphal way out, the police don’t think twice before shooting to protect the citizens inside.
Frank and Julie have too little time to react, the stress and anxiety kicks in, they go feral, crazy cinematic bullet avoids, for a moment it’s possible to get away. It all happened too quick, but in Julie’s vision it went slow motion. She just saw a cop leaning behind a car, aiming directly at Frank, even her fastest reaction wasn’t fast enough to stop the trigger from popping. With tears in her eyes she watches as the bullet hits her boyfriend right in the chest. 
She snaps. One target in mind, she sprints to the cop and stabs him over and over until she’s sure he won’t see the sun set ever again. She takes his gun and rushes towards Frank who is kneeling against a taxi holding his torax, she screams that they must go to the hospital immediately but he refuses, hospital would be just a quick stop on his way to jail. No fucking way. 
He demands to go back to the lodge, the cops are too busy helping their wounded partner to look for them, they think Frank may be dropped dead somewhere on the street after multiple shots, the two of them must flee before the cops realize the mistake and go hunting for them. NOW.
Julie side-carries Frank back to their car, the lack of a license of her own won’t stop her from driving as fast as the car can. Breathing heavily while constantly telling Frank to hold on, they will find a way out, they must do. Oh what a fucking stupid idea holy SHIT. 
The travel takes half the time it usually does and still feels like hours. The car gets all red with Frank’s blood that keeps leaking. Once they arrive, Frank wants to go upstair, Julie shouts at him to keep next the central campfire once he should grab some heat (and for god’s sake why is he still carrying the money bag they stole????), anyway he gets the last word and they climb the stairs up and lay on the bed, Frank hisses from the pain but also sighs in relief for the soft spot under him, ignoring Julie cursing besides him, saying she can still call an ambulance, she doesnt want to lose him, Suz and Joey will be devastated, although he just replies with the phrase they were saying sooner that day “They’ll never take us alive”.
After 20 minutes of agony, low whispers of memories of how they met, what they had been through together and a huge amount of blood moisturing the covers, Frank says he’s feeling light-headed, Julie looks at him and he’s paper white, the blood loss is finally getting to him, she wants to cry, scream, curse and stab that damn cop a hundred times again, but all she does is cuddle her head harder against his shoulder and tell him she loves him, that she will keep his legacy alive, with Joey and Susie, she will revenge him. He chuckles and slowly feels the life being drained from his weaked body until everything goes black.
Julie need a few seconds to process. Frank died. For real. He was good a few hours ago, he was right. They would never take them alive. Death could do them apart, but, he never said for how long they would be apart.
She reaches for the gun on the hand under Frank’s body. THAT DAMN GUN. She aims it to the side of her head, never leaving Frank’s side on the bed. Triggers it.
“Partners in crime”
Tumblr media
Damn did I just write a fucking fanfiction? This shit is way longer than I expected, did anybody even get down here?
Well, this is the part of the drawing where i left cause I just couldn’t afford to work on it, have in mind everytime the file were opened the whole lore came in my head, and fuck did i feel dizzy writing it all down. Hell the bloody details get me, seeing Frank so white with a blue undertone simulating the lifeless body gave me headaches fr. My escape was drawing other things until the courage to finish it came back. It was easier because the story kinda faded away from my mind, the drawing became “lighter” to deal with.
Well, guess that’s it. I hardly have this big insight while drawing, to visualize the finished piece on my brain and it’s just so fucking cool, making art with so many mixed feelings along, and overall pride, cause i feel so proud with the result you have no idea. It isn’t perfect tho, but i like it anyway. So, thank you so much if you made it all the way here. gonna sleep now for fucks sake im gonna pass out bye

16, 31, 40, 45, 47, 58 for Whoever You Like! go feral edition
Going to answer these for Selene because the mood struck me...
16. Likewise, do they associate a certain smell with a memory? The damp/cold smell of snowfall reminds her of being rezzed.
31. Do they have any precious mementos or keepsakes? What are they? The pack of equipment and scientific notebooks she was rezzed with.
Various trinkets from the Dreaming City taken as souvenirs.
Small gifts she's been given from various Eliksni friends.
The Last Word and Ace of Spades. Though she never knew Shin Malphur or Cayde-6 very well, she understands the weight of their legacy, and knows what it means for one hunter to bequeath their treasure to another, in a hunter-instinctive way. Gets a little hitch in her breath every time she holds them.
40. What's an experience they gloss over that is a matter of concern? That time she got a sniper rifle from a worm god on Io. She really doesn’t dwell on it even though ... you know ... Xol stuffed himself inside a gun to be bound to her forever... COOL GUN that Eris was nice enough to make some FANCY DECORATIONS for.
45. Is there any one thing they would change about themselves? Kind of abstract but she wants to stop being late to things. She feels like she's always piecing together what’s been broken. She would like to catch something before it falls for once.
47. Are they keeping secrets? What are they? She isn't exactly upfront with the Vanguard about her outreach with the Eliksni.
Knowing that Crow was alive for years before he actually surfaced. Trying to find him and not being able to. Lots of guilt about this.
Hasn't told Phoebe that she communed with the Darkness. Knows that she should but doesn’t want to hurt her more while she’s already hurt.
58. Is their a quote/song lyric/line of poetry that best describes them? What is it? Hmmmmmmmm, full disclosure, I think this broadly applies to Hunters rather than Selene specifically (and is probably like ... one of the best distillations of the hunter spirit), but I’m quite stuck and keep thinking of that quote from Watership Down:
“All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.“
Though I guess it could also apply to her particular struggle of trying to save the Awoken from the Witch Queen's curse ...

Animorphs Playlist: Rachel
I mentioned in my Marco songs post that I had lists for all the Animorphs and a couple people asked for more, so here we go.
“Woman King” by Iron and Wine
Blackbird claw, raven wing Under the red sunlight
Hundred years, hundred more Someday we may see a Woman king, sword in hand Swing at some evil and bleed
Starting off, just the title of this song screams Rachel to me, and the hits just keep coming.  The whole song (heck, the whole EP) is about female power and presence.  The lyrics blend the violent and peaceful, the stern and sensitive, the mundane and the exceptional, just like Rachel, who refuses to be written off as a beauty queen or a berserker or a top student or a second mother but combines all of those and more into her character.
“Playing With Fire” by Them Lost Boys ft. Lexi Forche
The air is thick with smoke and I can’t breathe All your secrets pouring in and out of me Shut your mouth, lock the door, throw away the key You can’t be messing with me.  Don’t be messing with me!
This one runs on pure emotional association.  The aggressive beats intercut by more contemplative sections, slow builds and sharp drops, and the repeated refrain of “Don’t be messing with me” all sonically and essentially capture Rachel.
“Magus Perde” by Jethro Tull
Tough are the soles that tread the knife's edge Break the circle, stretch the line, call upon the devil Bring the gods, the gods' own fire In the conflict revel
A running theme among many of my choices will be more thematic or emotional connections (as seen in the previous entry).  I could probably articulate the connections given enough time and words, but that would be dissecting the proverbial frog.  Instead I’ll just point out that besides the lyrics listed above (which are pure Rachel Warrior Princess), this song is the closing track to the album Passion Play, and in keeping with the historical origins of the concept is a meditation on life, death, and rebirth.
“Winterborn” by Cruxshadows
Discard regret That in this debt A better world is made That children of a newer day might remember and avoid our fate And in the fury of this darkest hour We will be your light You've asked me for my sacrifice And I am Winterborn
About the only good thing to come out of reading 2/3 of Ghost several years ago (Oh John Ringo, No!) was being introduced to this song.  This is a song about willing sacrifice in defense of others.  More than that, the verses are from the perspective of a higher power providing reassurance and comfort, while the chorus is the statement of the person sacrificing themselves.  The parallels don’t just jump out at you, they club you over the head and go through your pockets for loose change, so I’ll leave it there.
“The March of Cambreadth” by Heather Alexander
Midnight mare and blood red roan Fight to Keep this Land Your Own Sound the horn and call the cry How Many of Them Can We Make Die!
This might be the least nuanced association here: when it comes to fighting, Rachel was the Goddess of War long before Kratos stepped on the scene.  This song is for the part of her that revels in the fight.
“White Flag” by Joseph
I could surrender but I'd Just be pretending, no I'd Rather be dead than live a lie Burn the white flag
While this song also invokes the imagery of war, the intent is broader - refusing to let circumstances force you down, living life whatever the situation is.  Rachel’s ability to live in the moment let her continue to enjoy the parts of her life outside the immediate scope of the war, whether that was appreciating teen idols, laughing at her cousin’s complete lack of chill at a school square dance, or taking time to build her relationship with Tobias.  These aspects faded as the war began to encroach onto everything, but she managed to maintain her life longer than some of the others.
“Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes” by Paul Simon and Ladysmith Black Mambazo
And she said honey take me dancing But they ended up sleeping in a doorway By the bodegas and the lights on Upper Broadway Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes
This was a late addition, but as I was writing this post I realized that I have a post-war Rachel-Tobias song but nothing for their relationship during the war, and this just jumped out at me.  This song, to me, captures the difference in their initial positions in life and society, and how little they let it matter to them.  They can be just as happy flying together or hanging out in Tobias’ meadow or Rachel’s bedroom as they could be at a dance or the mall or another more traditional venue.  It also captures a sense of her refusal to let him cut her out and their willingness to meet in the middle.
“Bird Song” covered by T-Sisters
If you hear that same sweet song again Will you know why? Anyone who sings a tune so sweet Is passing by Laugh in the sunshine Sing Cry in the dark Fly through the night
Sleep in the stars Don't you cry Dry your eyes on the wind
This is my post-war Rachel and Tobias song, although it could apply equally well to the rest of the Animorphs after her death.  Initially written by Jerry Garcia in memory of Janis Joplin, I picked this particular version because I love the harmonies and it’s three women singing it.  This is another emotional association, no great character examination, just mourning for a dearly loved friend.
“This War” by Sting
And you can see the coming battle You pray the drums will never cease And you may win this war that's coming But would you tolerate the peace?
This song is written as an explicit condemnation of war, but I interpret and apply it here to Rachel’s own mixed feelings about the war, her love for it, and her place in the world without it.  While she’s not financially profiting, she does find herself more at home in battle (especially as the series goes on) and this song - to me - captures her fear that in giving more freedom to that part of herself she’s losing other elements of herself.  I personally believe she would have had a better chance than some might expect had she survived, but we’ll never know.
“Riot” by Three Days Grace
If you feel so filthy, so dirty, so f---ed up If you feel so walked on, so painful, so p---ed off You're not the only one refusing to go down You're not the only one, so get up
This was already on my Marco list, where I said it was my song for him, Rachel, and Tobias.  Whether they’re stirring s#!t with each other because they’re bored or burning down the world because at this point who cares, this is the song for my feral children.
“Yellow Flicker Beat” by Lorde
I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones It keeps my veins hot, the fire's found a home in me
I’m sure I’m not the first person to connect this song to Rachel.  Katniss is a different person, but as a song for a fighter who still can’t escape their war, it maps onto Rachel pretty well.
God is a DJ by P!nk
I've been the girl, middle finger in the air Unaffected by rumors, the truth, I don't care So open your mouth, stick out your tongue You might as well let go You can't take back what you've done
This song comes back to the joyful nonconformity of Rachel’s character.  She is who she is, and she doesn’t care what you think about it or expect from her.

Deep Water (Acoustic) I like to think of this song as a Khun and Bam song. I am now going to go into an essay to explain why.
It comes and goes in waves It always runs back but it's never quite the same Well, I think there's something wrong with me Got nothing to believe, can't you see it on my face
This is just Khun in general. I think he sees himself as a really cruel and terrible person because of how he was raised. Now, this just might be a headcanon or something, but If I was raised to take out other family members for my sister by my mother's orders that’s already hard. Adding to the fact that you’re sister killed herself because of your actions and your younger sister resents you. Khun said that he doesn't like being forced into rules. He’s got no reason to believe that they are absolute. When he enters the tower he probably has no reason to believe that he’ll make friends. 
I was going for the title, got hit by your tidal wave, uh Can't stay in the shallows, please tell me I won't wash away
Khun is talking to Bam now. His initial goal was to usurp his father’s place as head, going for the title. I'm sure that his goal changed when he met Bam and saw just how interesting he was. Bam is a powerful irregular and Khun understands that he is way outclassed compared to his boyfriend best friend. He’ll keep going for as long as he can with Bam. Hence the second part. 
When it pulls me under, will you make me stronger Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water Take me farther, give me one day longer Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water
Sorry for those who don’t ship it but as we all know I am big Khunbam trash. So this is how I will interpret these lyrics. Khun is asking Bam to be beside him no matter how deep the water goes. I really can’t explain exactly how romantic I think this lyric is in words but it involves how many times they’ve stayed by each other and chased when the other was gone. I mean Bam told Rachel to really fuck off after she hurt Khun so...
Ain't even scratched the surface Thinking I deserve the dream but I don't deserve the hurting I want the flame without the burning But I can't find my purpose when I don't know what my worth is
Now for me, these were the hardest part of the lyrics but I think this bit is just Bam. The surface bit is talking about Bam and how he’s still gaining power like it’s nothing. Bam hasn’t scratched the surface of his potential. He wants to keep everyone that he cares about safe and that he can still climb without losing others. He goes absolutely feral when one of them is injured. (looking at you Khun). I don’t think Bam understands his true worth. Jahad, FUG, and the people he’s close to put their own values to him. A weapon, God, Monster, friend. I think that for the longest time he was the boy Rachel found and he didn’t have anything else. So now that so many people describe him, he doesn’t know what his purpose is supposed to be. Because everyone wants or thinks of him in a contrasting way to another. 
I was going for the title, got hit by your tidal wave, uh Can't stay in the shallows, please tell me I won't wash away
When it pulls me under, will you make me stronger Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water Take me farther, give me one day longer Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water
This is a repeat of the above material. 
When I'm sinking like a stone At least I know I'm not alone When I'm sinking like a stone At least I know I'm not alone
Both of them know that the other will have their backs. Even if everything is stacked against them they can still trust the other to be looking out for them. Khun was willing to commit murder for Bam when he was thought dead. Bam was always looking for a way to heal Khun after he’s stuck in a coma. and finally is willing to let Rachel completely go. (Though she still keeps him chasing with information blackmail.) 
When it pulls me under, will you make me stronger Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water Take me farther, give me one day longer Will you be my breath through the deep, deep water
When I'm sinking like a stone (deep water) At least I know I'm not alone
Another repeat. I still believe the message applies. 
It comes and goes in waves It always runs back but it's never quite the same
I end this with the fact that Khun will always try to meet up with Bam when they are apart and vice-versa. Over their multiple separations, there has always been a reunion. Both of them change and learn during these splits but in the end, they’re still Khun Aguero Agnis and the Twenty-fifth Bam.  Thank you for your time and patience. (Actually, the reason I thought of this song as Khunbam was because I imagined Bam kissing Khun underwater. I will not apologize for my actions)

favorite thing about them
favorite... i like a lot of things about him (naturally) but i guess my favorite is that, while he is rather blunt and kind of tactless, he cares a lot. about what he does, mostly, but i do think he cares about people - particularly children - and just doesn't know how to deal with feelings (his own or others) or how to express them. which is very relatable to me.
least favorite thing about them
the classism. it's suuuuuch a thing in western academia and it's annoying as fuck. that and some of the sexist comments in classic are just...eugh. i get that it's a Time Period (which one, no one knows) and that artemy has some choice shit he can say (same w rubin's racism - why'd you make artemy's whole friend group like that game) but please. please. please.
favorite line
there are sooo many good ones (i personally think he's fucking hilarious) but "You all are borderline feral here" from classic is such a fantastic response.
brOTP
YULIA!!!!! YULIA YULIA i live for their friendship. pathologic 2 bachelor route better not nerf it or make it romantic, they are peak wlw/mlm solidarity
OTP
burakovsky.....spspspspspspsp come here i've written like 40 fics about them...... it's about the narrative foiling.....
nOTP
i saw someone post daniil/vlad jr once and i know daniil/victor and daniil/isidor exist so like, all of those.
random headcanon
academia has tried to beat the autism out of him (as it does us all 😔) but he starts to get burnout during the plague, and by the time it's over and he's staying in the town as a resident he's back to stimming more openly and some of the adhd & autistic kids in town pick up stims from him.
unpopular opinion
lol. i think most of my opinions regarding him are uh, unpopular... i don't think he's heartless. i think he's too theorhetical and forgets to apply his theories to life and living people (perhaps a side effect of primarily working with death and dying), but i don't like the uh...demonization of people who struggle with emotions or aren't openly emotional or even those who lack the ability to be sympathetic/empathetic. there was a post on tumblr a while ago about that, and how the word you want is compassion. but that's a different topic altogether wrt how tu.blr treats autistic and other neuroatypical people.
song i associate with them
i have a whole playlist that is part songs with vibes i think fit him and part songs with lyrics i think fit him... i think a nice mix is ”hatriđ mun sigra" by hatari. i think he has a pretty dismal outlook, and i also like to imagine everyone at thanatica dresses like hatari.
favorite picture of them
i love the official artwork for marble nest, but i don't have that on hand so here have this screenshot from @shogoakuji
Tumblr media
i have this saved in my reactions folder because it's just. something about it is so funny to me.
send me a character!

Jaskier was part fae. A quarter to be precise.
There was an old superstition among humans that names held power, but for fae it was so much more than that. Names meant control. If you knew a fae’s name, their true name, they would be completely at your will. If someone knew your true name you were nothing more than their servant. A slave. All it took was a single command.
When war breaks out between neighboring kingdoms, Jaskier's father uses his true name and commands him to marry a witcher as part of a peace treaty. Neither Jaskier or Geralt are particularly happy with the arrangement. But as Jaskier gets to know him better he realizes that the witcher might just be able to give him the thing he's always craved. Freedom.
