i adore the relationship between poets and composers of classical music and soundtracks. we are made of the same earth, given to the same act of invention out of air. sometimes someone writes something and years later, it becomes a recitation in your neoclassical album. or a title. we are bound by the quest for the perfect titles. sometimes a melody haunts a poem. we write variations, we are writing the same fugues, the same pull of measure. we are admiring each other from afar, we are kissing on the mouth

#on poetry #classical music #soundtrack #there is yet tenderness in this world #max richter #on the nature of daylight

— OCS AS LOVE TYPES

tagged by @stephschoices to do this uquiz for some ocs and naturally i chose the 3 stooges <3 thank you very much for the tag i love uquizzes!!

tagging everyone reading this. i can do that right

KALLIAS — love that lasts

love unconditional, love unfailing. you love no matter what happens because you believe in the best – of you, and them. it will hurt and it will fail you, but this love tastes so sweet – you can never believe that it bitters sometimes. the way you choose to love unconditionally is incredible.

GALEN — love that strengthens

you make sure that people know that they are loved, and you give them strength when they need it the most. this is an ability that is rare; the love that you hold speaks wonders of yourself. i hope you're doing alright. isn't it exhausting always being the bigger person?

V — love that calms

this is sweet. i hope you know that you make others feel at ease around you. you're a gem, a blessing, a treasure – and you should know it. it's comfortable loving you. it's a privilege to be around you and to be let into your world.

#tag game #kallias #galen #victoryne/valen/vail #kallias' and galen's are SPOT ON #kallias does not know it yet but they fall hard and blind and head over heels #they're loyal to a fault & if they love you that means you can do no wrong in their eyes #you know that quote that goes 'jealous of the sun because it kisses your skin and jealous of the moon because she watches you dream'#if you opened up kallias' brain that's what you'd see #you wouldn't see it laid out quite as eloquently but the idea is there #galen expresses their feelings. not well. but you can tell anyway if they love you and i think that is so special #you can tell when they think the world of you ):#and if it's romantic #tender kisses to tender bruises....#their love is safe and comforting and i would like to be wrapped up in it #they're so steamed milk on a cold night #v's result surprised me LOL but. yeah!#they're definitely not the calmest of people but this makes sense to me anyway #it'll take a while for things to get to this point but i like to think the wait & effort will be worth it in the end [:#i think telling v that you feel at ease around them could either be the world's greatest insult or the world's greatest compliment #depending on how your relationship looks at the time #but if they take it as a compliment it will HIT #if they love you they want nothing more than for you to feel safe and they will bust their ass off to provide that #SO SORRY for rambling. but also not that sorry #i love my little guys (gender neutral)

mistynat was the best fucking dynamic in the WORLD!!!!!!! AND THEY FOUCKING TORCHED IT!!!!!

#im mad about Yellowjackets now because its cathartic to get mad about poor writing and I cant do that with succ #UMMMMM hyperobsessive weirdo killer who holds an endearing fixation on the nihilistic yet tender junkie?#and they detested each other in the woods but also one pledged devotion to the other? and misty has been obsessed ever since?#and has forgiven nat for absolutely everything even when nat won't forgive herself? because she exists on an entirely different moral plane?#but will protect her now because nat protected her then?#like misty's obsession with nat isn't even because she was the antler queen #she was obsessed from the get-go via her idolization of the Yellowjackets #but then it clearly turned into something else #because misty is an apostle above all else #yet she was shown in s1 to be so devoted to nat as a PERSON beyond anything else #and nat's begrudging alliance with her...now on equal grounds in the Real World...being able to perhaps stomach misty's insanity because its #so much more visible than that of the others #because it validates what nat believes about the survivors #they are FUCKED UP #but there is a certain comfort in the fact that misty was always fucked up #GODDDD they could have been so good #yellowjackets #mistynat

I mean. I also want them to have crazy sex too. Maybe talk about their pasts. Smitten talks about why he travels. Broken shares stories from their ranch. They make plans to take the train tomorrow because Broken’s feeling worn out. So on and so forth

Help I want this too 🥺🙏😭

#the sex can be both mindblowing and comforting #intimate and passionate #yet also soft and tender #smitten offers a taste of the world to broken; the feel of the winds against feathers the ambience of a busy town #the chirps and noise of the plants and wildlife #broken whispers of the dark and ugly things he'd seen #of the hardships that lie beneath opulence the sufferings masked behind peace #for every story he shares smitten will hold him and kiss him on the lips or on his fingers or his neck on his cheek #the train ride would rock them both gently until they both fall asleep cuddled aginst each other

#smudgy.png #oc: rolland #i wont tag ww. im not ready for that yet #followers only post. for now #anyway i love drawing people when theyre animals i love being a furry (<- too shy to draw them as people)#2 guys who act all tough but are also the softest ppl in the world #recognizing it in each other sometimes even trying subtly to coax it out of each other #but vehemently denying it in themselves for fear of being seen as week. whatever #thinly veiled desperation for the tender quiet warmth of another human being #messily hidden behind the facade of a 'casual' relationship. whatever!!!#it is a 'fwb' ...only the 'benefit' is having someone who sees what you are but will hold you close at night anyway !!#anyway ive said too much. skitters back under the rock from where i emerged

y'all tomorrow i'm sharing literally what might be my absolute favorite chapter of silence agenda, and I'm rereading it over right now (and trying not to make too many edits) and god DAMN I'm so excited to share it with y'all

#win rambles #it's about the trust #it's about how intimate and romantic and tender this moment is even though they do not touch at all #it's about the first time avery thinks about kissing nyx #it's about avery telling nyx that they don't have to fix everything all the time and that their past doesn't define them #it's about avery telling nyx that they feel safe with them #it's about them both trying (and still not quite succeeding) to find the words to tell each other how much they mean to each other #bc they're only now just realizing it themselves #it's about the beginning of the culmination of their relationships and the realization that it is so much More #that they care about each other more than any other person in the world and neither of them know what to do about this #it's about them for the first time both realizing that they're in Love #and they don't name it yet or fully accept it but they Know. they Know #the silence agenda

literally nothing more heartbreaking than realizing you finally understand the shape od how your writing style is developing and then you realize its still not right for the book you want to write gkdkifkskfk

#backburner projects #looked at briar burr and i remember how easily the prose came from me and realizing that #that sortbof warm whimsical and wistful vibe is now my goto fantasy writing style #which is great!!! i love it #Except #the world of the doomed toxic yuri is Built on the basis of every warm whimsical thing being a facade to hide the crimes of the empire #and thus everything is so much colder and crueler than the peotagonist once believed #despite the fact that people still try to be tender and kind regardless #which the writing style doesnt capture yet god DAMMIT #maybe ill just do the time travel romantasy and call it a day #or maybe a time loop romantasy #either way

Assassin Heir? Crime Fighting Furry? NOPE NO THANK YOU!

"Danyal, its time to end this game and return with me."

Danny should had known Clockwork had something in mind when he sent him on this mission. He knew he should had been suspicious of the time keeper when he noticed the little 'this is going to be fun' smile on his face when he sent Danny off into the portal.

"Get back here you demon spawn 2.0!"

But how was he supposed to know that he'd wake up in this world version of himself in a pit full of corrupted (AND NASTY) ectoplasim at the tender age of five or that when he swam up to the surface he'd be meeting face to face with what was apparently a cult.

"-O just spotted him a block away! I'll try to cut itty bitty bridie off!"

An Assassins Cult his, new to him, loving yet a little insane mother was in charge of (though during the few months he stayed in the compound he heard rumors and gossip from maids and others alike that if his grandfather returned from the dead he'll take over once again, no doubt punish Talia for creating another heir after the failure of the last one, most likely was going to kill Danny and that... that was can of worms Danny didn't wanna deal with yet)

"Ten bucks says they try to stab RR when we get the feral thing home"

"...Losers bet...."

Danny had lived with his mother for a while after being brought back from the 'dead' for apparently the first time, it turned out training a five year old with an actual sword and a dumbass hidden revenge seeking teacher was a terrible idea.

"I swear if this one tries to murder me like the others I'm asking Zatanna if there is a curse on me."

He dealt with her high demands of perfection, the endless training, and the constant comparisons to his apparent older brother Damain... Who didn't know Danny, or rather Danyal existed.

Nor did his father (when Danny, using his powers he's kept hidden since 'waking' up in this Realm, he sneaked his way around the base and discovered how he came into the world. And tbh he couldn't blame his mom how she made him, she was an assassin first and foremost, being naturally pregnant would had painted a target on her for to long... but he also felt it was unfair and an asshole move on his unsuspecting father as well)

"As your elder brother I demand you to stop running!"

Now don't get him wrong, he did like his new mother (total badass assassin lady and all that) and he knew she loved him in her own... deadly way. But yeah, she really shouldn't be taking care of kids. He could tell she struggled with wanting to be a normal mother but her first instinct after so many years was to be an assassin first.

Something she was trying to engrave into Danny with as well.

"Ah, hello Beloved. I see you've learned of our Danyal."

"Talia. Back away from him and leave Gotham now."

"I can not do that. The League needs an heir and since Damian refuses to return... I have decided to create a new one and I shall not be leaving until he returns with me."

"Talia."

Hence why when Danny, or rather Danyal al Ghul had gotten decent control over his powers he decided to leave the League. Again nothing wrong with the life his mom leads, to each their own, but he... really, really didnt want to be an assassin. Or an assassin heir.

So here he was, after almost a year on the run, using his powers and training to out smart and out maneuver his mother and her many band of Assassins, in Gotham. One of the last places he ever wanted to run to cause he knew his father and brother lived here.

It was just his luck that his mother had managed to intercept his train ride that passed into Gotham for a few hours and forced him to run into the city...

Add her assassins into the mix and running into Robin, who heard from Oracle his mother had been spotted chasing a young boy across the city, that same night.

After that it became a full on "catch me if you can" chase for not only his mother but for the batclan as well.

And after two whole days of chase, it seemed like the final showdown was about to begin because everyone was on top of this rooftop, his mother and her assassins on one side, his father and the batclan on the other and Danny well... he was right in the middle of all of it.

He just had to hope no one would notice him once the fighting started...

#danny phantom #danny fenton #dp x dc #blue rambles #crossover #writing ideas #random idea #danny phantom dc #basicly Danny is sent on a mission by CW #he wakes up in the DC version of himself in the pits after being killed and Talia tossing him in #he was created by Talia since shes head of the LOA now and needs her own heir #but she once again wants Bruce's bloodline in it so she used some leftover dna she still had #so no one knows Danny was created until he left about a year later #danny has his ghost powers since he took a dip in the pits #but had to relearn some control and kept it secret #he knows his mom would see it as 'the pits granted my heir its powers.' mindset #so hes been on the run #and didnt wanna go to Gotham cause... his dad dresses as a gaint bat #and dont get him started on the rest of the batfam #he doesnt wanna be an assassin or a crime fighting furry #in case some people didnt get it. the words being spoken happen when Danny is running all across Gotham away from those after him #guess who said what lol #i want danny to be completely independent and trying to take care of himself tbh #but hes still baby to everyone else #talia is slowy becoming a little unhinged due to being the Demon Head now #maybe due to the stress of it all? or maybe due to a curse? idk

Simon "Ghost" Riley x Fem!Reader

Bringing in the new year with Simon.

Just a little something to tide us over till tomorrow. 😉

5…4…3…2…1… Happy New Year!

The television blasted out the sounds of the happy, cheering gathering of people while boisterous music played behind them just as the clock struck midnight. Two long-stemmed glasses filled with cheap champagne sat bubbling on the crowded coffee table, untouched. Even right outside the window the sounds of celebrating could be heard as people took to the streets to spread their joy through the cold night. And yet everything was completely forgotten and faded into the background as the two people sitting on the couch became lost in one another.

Simon's large hands were wrapped around your delicate cheeks, pulling your face tight against him as heated, moist lips captured yours over and over without a single thought to what was happening outside the space between you both. All he could comprehend in that moment, all that he cared about, was the taste of your lips, the warmth of your body, the soft touches from your fingertips grazing over bare skin that made his mind fuzzy.

He had gotten a little too eager, started the celebration a little too soon, as it was the first year he wasn't stuck in the barracks alone and isolated as those all around him celebrated with those that meant something to them. Now he was with someone who he cared about more than anything in this world and so things had already gotten ahead of themselves… not that either of your minded.

Eyes staying closed, he grabbed your hands within his, lacing his fingers into the empty space between yours, and gave them a tug in a silent request to move in closer. Carefully, with mouths still connected, he helped to situate you over top of his broad lap so that you were comfortable. Straddling his thick thighs between your legs, knees shoved into the couch cushions on either side, you wrapped your arms around his neck as your fingers sought to play with the short strands of hair at the back of his head.

Your touch was met with a deep-throated moan from him, causing his hands to reach behind you so that his palms could fill themselves with as much of your ass as he could hold between them through the fabric of your dress, massaging that voluptuous curvature in slow, circular motions as he pushed down to guide your hips to gently grind against him. The scant fabric at the crotch of your panties meant that you could feel him press up into you the longer you moved, that bulge growing steadily since he first pulled you into his kiss.

His exploring mouth began to travel down from your lips to your jaw and then on to your neck where he nuzzled into the crook of it as he latched on. Sharp teeth nibbled at the tender flesh at the base of your neck, quick bites that had you tingling from head to toe.

A loud group outside shouted and laughed, which caught your attention and drew you back into the reality outside of Simon’s body. “I think we missed it,” you moaned breathlessly into the room as his lips sent another wave of pleasure rolling straight through you. “It’s already past midnight.”

“Didn’t miss a fuckin’ thing, sweetheart,” he groaned as his hands roamed up a little higher to secure themselves around your waist. “This is the only way I wanna bring in the new year.”

Minutes passed by wholly ignored as if time itself had stopped while large hands pawed at your lap as your hips rolled over top of him. The friction was divine and mixed with the overwhelming feeling of your lips embracing his own and it wasn’t long until it felt like his entire body was on fire.

Suddenly you felt Simon shift beneath you and all at once your body being shoved back down onto the cushions as he loomed over top, crushing your body into the surface as he positioned himself in between your legs.

Your lips were left cold as he broke the kiss to sit back on his calves as calloused digits pushed the bottom hem of your dress up to your waist, leaving your hips exposed with nothing but a small bit of underwear to cover them. His breath got caught in his throat for a moment as he took in all that beautiful, warm skin, the flush of your cheeks, the swollenness of your lips.

His angel heaven sent.

There was a saying Simon had heard that said what you did on the first day of the new year dictated how it would go throughout the rest and though he didn't believe in old wives tales, he wasn't about to jinx a good thing. He wanted the next 12 months to be filled to the brim with moments like this.

“Let’s start this year off right, yeah pretty girl?” he smirked as his fingers hooked into the waistband of your panties to slide them down your tights and right off your legs.

“With a bang.”

#there lives within me a shell of my past selves #fold me into poetry #the world breathes clearly. i feel the wind on my face. it carries memories.#i am standing in the kitchen learning to make ommelettea. i dont know it yet but i will treasure this memory forever.#nostalgia runs through my veins and i will cherish the small moments if i have to do it by forth #force*#mistakes and corrections and hope and happiness and tenderness and kindness and these memories will be building blocks to who i am #a moodboard self portraid using only the photos ive downloaded from tumblr recently #i am who i love #hand me down sweaters and good luck clovers and library books #motels and danger and autumn comfort holiday braziera #braziers*
