WHAT DOES LOVE FEEL LIKE TO YOU?

stevie roberts is... fire

one touch from them sets you on fire. and it burns and burns and takes over everything in its path, including you. you don't care. they are worth it. they are worth every sacrifice and tear, every smile and laugh. as long as they are at your side, you will happily light that match and set everything aflame again. don't slip on the gasoline, my love.

billy is... fear

the tap of a nervous foot against the floor. those butterflies in the pit of your stomach. a dry throat. heavy limbs. you want them so badly that it hurts, but fear keeps you frozen to the floor; what ifs and hypotheticals run rampant through your head. it's a chain around your neck, love, and it's your choice to let it choke you or break it.

dixie is... a double-edged sword

oh, my love. you've been hurt before, haven't you? you've put your trust in someone before and gotten burned. there's a blade pointed right at your chest, but now, you're holding a knife too. aren't you tired of being on edge? of guarding your heart? lower your weapon, my love. you can rest.

jax is... drowning

maybe you've spread yourself too thin. maybe you've got so much love in your heart that it's choking you. whatever the reason, you cannot continue this; this give and give and give, the push and pull of everyone else's needs. you can barely keep your head above the water. your limbs can only support you so long. something will give. you know it will be you.

caden is... fire

one touch from them sets you on fire. and it burns and burns and takes over everything in its path, including you. you don't care. they are worth it. they are worth every sacrifice and tear, every smile and laugh. as long as they are at your side, you will happily light that match and set everything aflame again. don't slip on the gasoline, my love.

kayden is... everything

nothing matters but this. not you. not them. this moment, this love that you've built, that is what matters. it is all that there is. you will do anything to keep it this way; no matter what line you have to cross, who you have to step over. the ends justify the means, after all; and for you, this is everything. they are everything.

griffin is... a double-edged sword

oh, my love. you've been hurt before, haven't you? you've put your trust in someone before and gotten burned. there's a blade pointed right at your chest, but now, you're holding a knife too. aren't you tired of being on edge? of guarding your heart? lower your weapon, my love. you can rest.

WHAT EMOTION ARE YOU?

(fun fact: there's a pattern.........)

axel is… guilt.

your guilt gnaws at you like a cancer, slowly destroying you from the inside. it is a constant reminder of the mistakes you have made, of the people you have hurt, of the opportunities you have wasted. you deserve to suffer for what you have done, and the only way you can atone is by punishing yourself, by making yourself suffer. you want to torture yourself, knowing you let everything happen, and your pentinence will eat you whole. it is a small price to pay for the pain you have caused others, but do you truly deserve it?

billy loomis is… denial.

your denial is like a thick fog, obscuring your view and making it difficult to see the truth. it is a comfortable lie, a way to avoid the harsh reality of your situation. it is like a cloud that hangs over your head, a veil that hides your true feelings from yourself and the world. poor soul, you can’t even look into the mirror without denying reality. it’s not your fault- you can blame everyone else. when you’re done, you’ll see what you truly desire.

cherri is… longing.

your longing is like a ghost, a haunting presence that follows you wherever you go. it is a feeling that slips in and out of your mind, a reminder of what you have lost, what you will never have. don’t you wish to feel their touch again? it’s too late, so let me guide you. you can resist, it’s expected. the passion of your heart is like a wound that never heals, a scar that won't fade. not even you can stop it.

maddox riley is… anxiety.

anxiety is your companion, the shadow that hangs over you like a storm cloud. it's a voice that whispers in your ear, telling you all the things that could go wrong- echoing and bouncing inside the walls of your mind. it's a feeling that clutches at your chest, making it hard to breathe. it's a cycle, a never-ending loop of worry and fear. i wish i could turn it off for you, silence the doubt in your mind, but it's always there, lurking in the corners of your thoughts, ready to strike when you least expect it.

Runway Stunts, Condoms, Tom Ford Throwbacks: Inside Milan Fashion Week Another week of Milan shows have wrapped, where we saw the sophomore runway outings of Maximilian Davis at Ferragamo, Rhuigi Villaseñor at Bally, Marco de Vincenzo at Etro and Filippo Grazioli at Missoni, each designer crystalizing their vision for their respective heritage houses. Gucci's show was designed by an in-house team as we await the new designer's debut in September. And Versace won't show until March in Los Angeles just before the Oscars. Below, a recap of the biggest standouts of Milan Fashion Week.Avavav Had Clothes Falling Apart on the RunwayDesigner Beate Karlsson has been using her Avavav shows as commentary on fashion and its relationship with wealth, fakeness and failure. After last season's stunt, where models stumbled and fell down the runway on purpose, her sophomore Milan runway outing has the clothes literally tearing and coming apart the model's body as a commentary on fashion's seriousness and ideas around bad quality and shame."It’s a way of showing authenticity and strength," Karlsson says. "I wanted to create a moment of embarrassment and shame to see if it can coexist with, or even generate luxury."BTS' RM Makes Surprise Front Row Cameo at Bottega VenetaBTS' leader RM made a surprise front row appearance at the Bottega Veneta show, sitting next to Kelela in an understated look from the brand's Spring 2023 show. Could he be the Italian label's next brand ambassador from the K-pop group as its members continue to go solo? (Dior, Louis Vuitton and Valentino have each signed on Jimin, J-Hope and Suga, respectively.) Models Go Crowd-Surfing at SunneiSunnei sure loves a good ol' fashion stunt. After having twins walk its last show (where one sibling came out from the audience with the other emerging from backstage), the brand had it models (who were its employees) walk an elevated platform runway, turn their back and drop into the audience concert-style as they crowd-surfed away. The show notes said of the performance: "Each season, the aim is to forge an interaction between [Sunnei designers] Loris Messina and Simone Rizzo, guests, models and location."Gucci Brought Back Those Tom Ford-Era Horsebit BagsWith its new creative director not presenting her first collection until September, Gucci's Fall 2023 was entrusted to their in-house studio team. This season they sent out looks inspired by several chapters of the brand's history, with plenty of Tom Ford-isms and a few of Alessandro Michele's codes mixed in between. Speaking of Tom Ford, the horsebit handbags he introduced for the brand in 2003 got the oversized update here in bold colors with curvy corners. Some styles also come with built-in gloves for your fingers.GCDS Made Shows That Look Like ClawsWhile a lot of the attention at the GCDS show was directed at VIPs like Dua Lipa (and Bella Thorne, and Dixie D'Amelio, and Aron Piper), the accessories Guiliano Calza showed on the runway deserved just as much buzz. There were metallic chrome boots, bags with telephone-shaped handles and cat-shaped crystal balls. But the standouts by far were the heel-less platform shoes, including one in the shape of a paw with claws sticking out. "The collection relies on the face-off of the sweet and the darkly seductive, with accessories blowing the claws of domestic felines to human proportions, turning them into sensual weapons," the show notes said of the shows. Purr!Diesel Teamed Up With Durex CondomsThe show invite to Diesel's Fall 2023 show featured a co-branded condom with Durex, hinting at a possible collab to come, and sure enough, the set featured a giant pile of boxed condoms in the middle of the space — 200,000 to be exact. (Some of the looks on the runway also featured Durex logos.)The brand said an additional 300,000 Durex condoms would be handed out for free in April in Diesel stores globally. “Sex positivity is something amazingm" Dieswel's Glenn Martens said. "We like to play at Diesel, and we are serious about it. Have fun, respect each other, be safe. For Sucsexful Living!” Tomo Koizumi Made His Milan Fashion Week DebutJapanese wunderkind Tomo Koizumi, known for his exaggerated tulle confections, made his Milan Fashion Week debut with a collection that showed off his knack for manipulating tulle into colorful, couture gowns. Koizumi is the latest emerging designer to show at Milan thanks to Dolce & Gabbana's program, following past names like Miss Sohee and Matty Bovan. He even used some of the brand's fabrics from past Alta Moda collections and reworked them into his signature tulle looks. https://www.papermag.com/milan-fashion-week-fall-2023-2659472848.html

Artists with Long Gaps Between Albums

On Tuesday (6/25) country trio the Dixie Chicks announced that they were in the studio working on a new album. The album, once released, will be their first in nearly 13 years, following 2006’s ‘Taking the Long Way.’

The Dixie Chicks join a recent influx of bands and artists that have returned with new music after more than a decade away, including My Bloody Valentine, Chic, Chuck Berry and more.

Inspired by the news of the Dixie Chicks’ as-yet untitled album, Vinyl Bay 777, Long Island’s music outlet, is taking a look at artists that took their time between albums. Here are six whose new albums were long-awaited.

1.       Pink Floyd: Pink Floyd had pretty much disbanded following touring for their 1994 album ‘The Division Bell.’ In 2012, however, frontman David Gilmour and drummer Nick Mason decided to take another look at some of the unreleased instrumentals left over from the ‘Division Bell’ sessions. What came of it was a nearly all-instrumental new album, ‘The Endless River,’ released in 2014, 20 years after their last.

2.       My Bloody Valentine: Things started to fall apart for My Bloody Valentine in the mid-1990s. Despite being signed to Island Records in 1992, the bands members started moving in their own separate directions in 1995, leaving their 1991 album, ‘Loveless,’ as their final album. Although the band reunited in 2007, it would be another nine years before they would release their third album, ‘m b v,’ in 2013. The band is supposedly writing two more albums, though there is no timeline yet for their release.

3.       Chic: Following the reunion that brought about their 1992 album ‘Chic-ism,’ Chic continued to tour for the next two decades as a nostalgia act. The band released four albums, but they were all either compilations or live recordings. Nile Rodgers announced in 2013 that he was working on a new Chic album, ‘It’s About Time,’ which came out six years later in 2018.

4.       The Who: The Who may be releasing a new album some time in 2019, closing a 13-year gap between albums, but it’s not the longest the band has taken. Following the release of ‘It’s Hard’ in 1982 and a farewell tour the same year, Pete Townshend decided to leave the band. The break-up didn’t last long though, as the band reunited at Live Aid in 1985 and toured together in various line-ups ever since. Despite John Entwistle’s passing in 2002, Townshend and Roger Daltrey decided to release a new album in 2006, ‘Endless Wire,’ 24 years after the last.

5.       Guns N’ Roses: One of the most storied waits in rock music, it took Guns N’ Roses 15 years to follow up their 1993 album ‘“The Spaghetti Incident?”,’ (17 years if you’re only counting original compositions, making the ‘Use Your Illusion’ albums their last). Slash and Duff McKagan left the band between 1996 and 1997, leaving Axl Rose as the only original member. Rose spent a lot of time recording and rerecording what would become ‘Chinese Democracy,’ delaying what was supposed to be a 2000 release into a 2008 release. With the band’s supposed upcoming album, they will be bridging another long gap, 11 years since an official album release and 26 years since their classic line-up released an album.

6.       Chuck Berry: Though he had not released an album since ‘Rockit’ in 1979, Chuck Berry continued to perform live for much of his career. That changed in 2017 with the release of ‘Chuck,’ his first studio album in 38 years. Berry had been working on the album for a long time and seemed to know that it would be his final, saying in a statement “This record is dedicated to my beloved [wife] Toddy. My darlin' I'm growing old! I've worked on this record for a long time. Now I can hang up my shoes!” The legendary musician passed away a couple of months prior to its release.

Whether it was because of a recent reunion or an artist taking their time, there have been several artists over the last few years who have released new albums after decades of radio silence. The Dixie Chicks join this growing list, hopefully recapturing what made their music great more than a decade later.

Non, le regard du Coran sur les juifs n'est pas tout noir. Démonstration implacable d'un islamologue israélien, qui y consacre un livre.

Le Point : Pourquoi les musulmans se montrent-ils souvent si hostiles aux juifs ? On invoque volontiers le conflit israélo-palestinien, qui entretiendrait la haine, mais certains versets du Coran sont très durs. Les juifs devraient toujours être humiliés et rabaissés…

Meir M.Ab-Asher est islamologue de l'université hébraïque de Jérusalem.

© DR

Meir Ab-Asher : Même avant la fondation de l'État d'Israël, l'islam avait un problème avec les juifs. Le verset 29 de la Sourate 9 affirme qu'il faut les combattre – comme tous les non-musulmans – jusqu'à ce qu'ils paient un impôt spécifique, la jizya, et qu'ils « soient soumis ». Un hadith prédit que lors du Jugement dernier, ils devront se cacher derrière les arbres et les pierres, etc. Cette hostilité apparente peut s'expliquer par des raisons conjoncturelles, liées au conflit entre Mahomet et les tribus juives de Yathrib, mais il existe à mon sens des raisons plus profondes. Les juifs, en effet, sont les ennemis théologiques par excellence, car ils sont les premiers qui ont détenu la vérité du monothéisme. Cette supériorité-là, l'Islam va tout faire pour la briser. Certes, les juifs ont été le peuple élu, mais pour le Coran, ils ont falsifié le message divin, et donc pour cette faute et bien d'autres, leur élection a été abolie. Pour mieux s'émanciper des juifs, le Coran fait d'Abraham le fondateur du monothéisme, et c'est à lui qui a détruit le premier les idoles et qui a fondé le premier temple monothéiste à La Mecque que se rattachent les musulmans. Donc, s'il est vrai que l'islam apparaît chronologiquement après le judaïsme et le christianisme, théologiquement, il leur est antérieur puisqu'il est présenté comme directement lié à Abraham.

Abraham est aussi considéré par les juifs comme celui qui a conclu la première alliance avec Dieu, donc il est aussi très juif…

Oui, bien sûr, et ce n'est que l'un des aspects de la relation complexe qu'entretient le Coran avec le judaïsme. Il sait qu'il est fondateur, et il le respecte en tant que tel, mais il ne peut vivre avec ce qu'il considère comme une supériorité. Tout se passe comme si l'islam faisait un complexe, d'où le besoin de réaffirmer constamment qu'il est le seul à détenir la vérité que résume le fameux verset 19 de la sourate 3 : « La vraie religion, c'est l'Islam ». L'existence même d'un État d'Israël qui occupe des terres considérées comme traditionnellement musulmanes est donc fondamentalement « anormale ». Tout comme était « anormale » la domination chrétienne en Palestine pendant les croisades : à chaque fois, l'islam s'est senti menacé, inachevé. L'idéologie islamiste considère d'ailleurs la lutte contre le sionisme comme une « nouvelle croisade ».

Oui, mais sans Torah, pas de Coran…

Cela dépend de quel point de vue vous regardez. Si je parle comme un musulman, ce n'est pas vrai, mais comme un historien, oui, c'est vrai. Le Coran doit beaucoup à l'héritage des juifs et des chrétiens, mais plus encore à celui du judaïsme que du christianisme. Pour le musulman, traditionnellement, le fait qu'il y ait une telle ressemblance signifie simplement que les écritures sacrées des trois religions ont la même racine, le même Kitâb, le Livre. Ces écritures s'inspirent du umm-al-Kitâb, littéralement « la Mère du Livre ». Le umm-al-Kitâb est le livre par excellence, celui qui se trouve dans les mains de Dieu. Si les trois monothéismes l'ont reçu, seuls les musulmans, selon eux, disposent du message parfait, le Coran, la parole de Dieu transmise à Mahomet par l'intermédiaire de l'ange Gabriel. Mais le Coran est très ambivalent. D'un côté, il revendique un attachement sans faille à la Torah, aux prophètes et à leurs paroles en tant que révélation divine. Ainsi, il recommande au prophète Mahomet qu'en cas de doutes, il « interroge les peuples du Livre » comme l'affirme le verset 94 de la sourate 10. Ce qui peut vouloir dire que l'authenticité divine du Coran repose sur la Bible hébraïque, la Torah, et dans le Nouveau Testament. Mais de l'autre, il met en doute les Écritures des juifs de son temps et accusent ces derniers de les avoir falsifiées.

L'Arabie de Mahomet était plutôt juive, si l'on en croit les dernières découvertes historiques. Lui-même a-t-il été formé au judaïsme ?

Il témoigne au départ une attitude très positive vis-à-vis du judaïsme. Mais quel était le judaïsme qui existe en Arabie au VIIe siècle ? On sait peu de choses sur les communautés juives de ce temps dans le Hedjaz ; il semble qu'il existait des communautés proto karaïtes, qui respectent plus la Torah que la tradition talmudique, on remarque aussi des influences judéo-chrétiennes. Mais c'est du judaïsme dans les grandes lignes, si l'on en croit ce qu'en dit le Coran. Mahomet s'identifie beaucoup à ce judaïsme, mais il veut que les Juifs acceptent son message. Il fait donc d'abord l'effort de mettre l'accent sur les points de similitude entre les deux croyances. Mais comme les juifs n'acceptent pas de le suivre, commence alors un processus d'éloignement et même de « délégitimation » des juifs, à peu près un an et demi après l'Hégire, le départ de Mahomet de la Mecque en juillet 622. D'après les sources musulmanes, le conflit entre les musulmans et les juifs atteint son sommet en 624, moment où commence la guerre contre les trois tribus de Médine. Ceci étant, nous n'avons pas de sources juives. Ce qui a amené des islamologues à douter de l'existence des communautés juives, et à penser que le Coran ne les citait que pour justifier l'attitude des musulmans vis-à-vis des juifs. Cette théorie n'est pas convaincante à mon avis. Ce n'est pas parce qu'ils sont silencieux qu'ils n'existent pas. Ainsi, ce n'est pas parce qu'on parle très peu de Jésus en son temps qu'il n'a pas existé. Même si les seules sources connues sont celles des musulmans qui sont hostiles aux juifs et qu'elles exagèrent ou déforment les faits, il faut les prendre au sérieux.

Qu'est-ce que l'islam a repris aux juifs ?

La direction de la prière, qui semble avoir été d'abord vers La Mecque, puis vers Jérusalem, et quand les relations avec les juifs se sont envenimées, vers La Mecque à nouveau. Mais aussi les interdits alimentaires, les règles du jeûne de Ramadan, qui sont très proches des règles juives. D'ailleurs, avant que le jeûne de Ramadan soit le plus important, les musulmans jeûnaient pour Ashoura « le dixième » jour du mois de Moharram, qui est proche du Yom Kippour juif, le dixième jour du mois du Tishri. Évidemment, on constate des similitudes entre la Torah et le Nouveau Testament avec le Coran, et on voit très clairement qu'il y a influence des deux premiers textes sur le troisième. Notez toutefois que le Coran ne cite presque jamais directement la Bible. Il la paraphrase, car contrairement au christianisme, qui accepte pleinement comme texte révélé le canon biblique, même s'il n'en a pas toujours la même compréhension, les musulmans considèrent que si la Torah est une écriture divine, ce Livre a par la suite été falsifié, donc il n'est pas question de citer le texte sous forme de verbatim. De plus, le Coran ne raconte pas les récits bibliques de manière détaillée, mais se contente de dire : « rappelez-vous ce qui est écrit ». Ce qui peut signifier que les auditeurs étaient sensés déjà connaître ces histoires, et que donc il n'était pas nécessaire d'entrer dans les détails. Mais on constate souvent que le Coran propose une variante à la Torah et au Nouveau Testament. Ainsi, Marie est présentée comme la sœur de Moïse et d'Aaron, héros de l'Ancien Testament, mais après quelques versets, elle devient la mère de Jésus. Le grand historien musulman Tabari propose une solution à ce qui peut passer pour une incohérence en affirmant que le Coran voulait voir Marie mère de Jésus comme inspirée par Marie sœur de Moïse. Pour les musulmans, de toute façon, s'il existe des dissemblances entre les versions de la Torah, le Nouveau Testament et le Coran, c'est que juifs et chrétiens ont abîmé le texte initial.

Vous montrez que les juifs n'ont pas le même statut aux yeux des sunnites et des chiites…

Le chiisme entretient avec les juifs une relation plus complexe que le sunnisme. Il existe ainsi des traditions chiites qui disent que « nous sommes les vrais israélites ». Comme les juifs, les chiites pensent être le peuple élu, par rapport aux autres religions et par rapport aux autres musulmans. Ils considèrent donc que les juifs sont, comme eux, une minorité persécutée et qui connaît un happy end : ils ont réussi à fuir l'esclavage en Égypte, à revenir de l'exil à Babylone. Évidemment, ils ne tirent pas les mêmes conséquences pour l'État d'Israël. Mais, a contrario, ils les considèrent aussi comme rituellement impurs du point de vue juridique. Ils doivent donc se tenir physiquement à l'écart, ne pas partager de repas ou contracter de mariage. Il est possible qu'ils aient été influencés en cela par le zoroastrisme, dont les règles de pureté sont très strictes. Les sunnites sont beaucoup moins sensibles…

Quand il évoque les juifs, le Coran distingue les Fils d'Israël et les Yahoud ? Pourquoi ?

Dans le Coran, l'attitude contre les « Banu Israʼîl », « Les Fils d'Israël », qui sont les juifs bibliques, est plutôt positive, mais lorsqu'il veut dire des choses négatives, le mot utilisé est « yahoud ». C'est intéressant, car cela témoigne de toute l'ambiguïté du statut des juifs dans le Livre révélé. Il peut être positif vis-à-vis des juifs, tout en contenant des éléments antijuifs qui peuvent nourrir une pensée antisémite. Mais on ne peut pas dire qu'il est antisémite, ce qui n'a pas de sens à l'époque.

Le Coran dit-il de tuer les juifs ?

Certains versets coraniques nourrissent une violence vis-à-vis des non-musulmans, mais non, on ne peut pas dire que le Coran dit de tuer les juifs.

TAG DUMP.

[brckensociety]

°˖✧ WHAT ETHEREAL VIBE DO YOU GIVE OFF? °˖✧

arachne is... a shapeshifter

you adapt to situations and people rather quickly, and you pull it off so effortlessly, how sexy of you. still a little closed off, much to your many admirers' dismay. you could probably carry around a tiny blade strapped to your thigh and nobody would question it. in fact I think the drooling and gawking might increase by 30% at least.

billy loomis is... a 300 year old vampire

you've lived through the 80s- you're pretty sure you've seen it all. wandering around the world aimlessly, you're kinda tired of everyone gawking at your otherworldly, dark beauty every time you round a corner, so you tend to leave humans alone. and yet you feel the need to use your wisdom and guide those who are lost in the world. you're pretty chill but also will bust a tear at the mere sight of a sunrise or sunset

april riley is... a woodland fairy

so heartbreakingly selfless, it's enchanting to everyone around you, especially strangers. you are loved, adored, by everyone who gets to know you well and gets to call you their friend. sprinkle a little pixie dust on your loaf of bread and have a heavenly day you lovely creature

atlas is... a angel

all eyes are always fixed on you every time you enter a room. no matter what colour your wings are, you embody that colourful aura and everyone is drawn to you. you may not be one for too many words, but your eyes convey many feelings with just one look. be a little obsessed with yourself, I promise you it's ok

peach is a... mysterious bookstore owner

your bookstore/tea garden/cafe is a haven for many who were lucky enough to stumble across your (very well) hidden store. you may or may not be a very powerful immortal who now lives a quiet life. you share a likeness to someone in a photo hung up on your wall that was taken in 1902, but no one's really questioned it yet. only your most loyal customers are privy to your colourful past. oh the scandal and mystery of it all

hazard is a... 300 year old vampire

you've lived through the 80s- you're pretty sure you've seen it all. wandering around the world aimlessly, you're kinda tired of everyone gawking at your otherworldly, dark beauty every time you round a corner, so you tend to leave humans alone. and yet you feel the need to use your wisdom and guide those who are lost in the world. you're pretty chill but also will bust a tear at the mere sight of a sunrise or sunset

dixie is a... greek mythology entity

a hush falls over the crowd just by the mere mention of your name. you've been around, you've done and seen it all, and you're still thirsty for knowledge and power. your conquests are heard of all around the world, especially how great you look in leather pants. seriously no one's managed to pull this look off, props to you

diesel is... a mysterious bookstore owner

your bookstore/tea garden/cafe is a haven for many who were lucky enough to stumble across your (very well) hidden store. you may or may not be a very powerful immortal who now lives a quiet life. you share a likeness to someone in a photo hung up on your wall that was taken in 1902, but no one's really questioned it yet. only your most loyal customers are privy to your colourful past. oh the scandal and mystery of it all

velvet is... a 300 year old vampire

you've lived through the 80s- you're pretty sure you've seen it all. wandering around the world aimlessly, you're kinda tired of everyone gawking at your otherworldly, dark beauty every time you round a corner, so you tend to leave humans alone. and yet you feel the need to use your wisdom and guide those who are lost in the world. you're pretty chill but also will bust a tear at the mere sight of a sunrise or sunset

WHAT GENRE OF BOOK WERE YOU WRITTEN FOR AND DID YOU SURVIVE TO THE END?

velvet is... written for an adventure book where you survived the final battle.

you love exploration and finding the reason behind things. you have experienced a lot of obstacles in your life but somehow have managed to push past them all. even though it has been hard and tiring, you still reached the end of story where you are finally able to be free from any of those obstacles.

dixie is... written for a science fiction book so your death could show off someone’s power.

you are very good at being aware of your surroundings… just not when it mattered most. you have very little care for yourself and instead care more about others and what you deem to be “good”. this of course ends up with you being a sacrifice. not only that but your death is simply overshadowed by showing off just how powerful this villain is.

billy loomis is... written for an adventure book where you were killed during a battle.

you live for whatever the next greatest thing may be. you don’t worry about the possible danger, instead only looking at the possibility of excitement and the great story you may be able to get out of this. you are a bit rash and don’t look before you leap, which is what ends up getting you killed in battle.

livia is... written for a fantasy book but you died by the sixth chapter.

you have a magical, whimsical vibe to you that somehow still can be portrayed as practical. you are hopeful to the point of naivety and get distracted by beauty in places like the stars. unfortunately that mix leads to you being unfocused during an important moment, which ultimately leads to your untimely death early on in the book.

arachne is... written for a horror book that you somehow make it to the end of.

you don’t know how to rest but you really wish you could. after everything that you’ve been through in this story you want nothing more than to be able to let yourself relax. you have a good understanding of logic and tend to focus on that over your emotions. the good news is that its over. the killer isn’t chasing you anymore.

damian is... written for a mystery book to move the plot along, you had to survive.

you enjoy thrills and the spark that they add to your life. if there weren’t those thrills then what’s the point of doing anything, right? you are a very curious person but you do know when to back off. your problem is knowing who you are in the story. are you the detective or the murderer? who knows! it’s part of the mystery…

april riley is...written for a fantasy book but you died by the sixth chapter.

you have a magical, whimsical vibe to you that somehow still can be portrayed as practical. you are hopeful to the point of naivety and get distracted by beauty in places like the stars. unfortunately that mix leads to you being unfocused during an important moment, which ultimately leads to your untimely death early on in the book.
