Also re: back to the future I've been listening a lot to No More Kings' album Back which is shamelessly based on the movies. Fair warning that it is some serious corny gen-xer shit, but it makes up for it by being so catchy it should be classified as a cognitohazard
#back to the future#also the corny-yet-catchy conundrum is true for so much of nmk's discography its ridiculous#like im sorry i really do not want to be listening to a song with the line 'throw on some nylon pants and bust a hammer dance' and yet.#(that is not from back btw its an older song)#theyre extremely competent when it comes to devising ultra-potent earworms#less so when it comes to writing lyrics that dont make you a little embarrassed to be listening#but by god i AM listening

John Price
John is at work. But that doesn’t stop him. The texts come in one after the other.
Do you know how hard I am?
Been thinking about you all day.
Can hardly wait for later.
You take my cock so well.
You reply back with equal steam, describing all the ways you want him to fuck you. No detail is left unsaid. It is a lecherous image you paint for him. But fuck is it fun. The man will come home pent up, pouncing on you the moment he’s through the door.
The next text from John comes a full minute later.
Send me a picture.
Send a picture? You could. The potential of his coworkers seeing it over his shoulder isn’t something you’re particularly interested in though. Then again, telling John how horny you are isn’t enough. He might be on you the second he comes home, but you could do with a little roughness. A bit of punishment. Making John turned on and frustrated is always a sure bet you’ll receive what you want.
Opening YouTube, you find the song you’re looking for. A catchy song from the 80’s that’s now a viral trend.
Get ready, big boy, you reply.
You snap a quick, teasing photo. Sending it off.
I’m fucking ready, replies John instantly.
A swoosh, and the link is sent.
You wait. Laugh into your hand. A full minute passes. Then another. Finally, a text comes in.
Send the real thing or I’m coming home early.
You lock your phone, and set it aside, grinning madly as you wait for John to pull into the drive.
Simon "Ghost" Riley
Separation has never stopped you. Simon might be elsewhere, but the two of you find time to indulge in every horny urge.
I’m gonna suck your cock until you look like an empty Capri Sun.
You laugh at yourself for texting him that, but as much as he seems aloof, Simon has a wicked sense of humor.
His response is immediate. You can try.
You snort, fingers poised to type out a return message, but the three little bubbles appear on his side.
Lube up the dildo. Suck it off. Send me a video.
You nearly choke on your own salvia. The idea of that is fucking salacious. And as much as you’d like to, you’re also feeling a bit lazy. You’re cozied up on the sofa, covered by a fluffy blanket. Instead of indulging him, you can be a bit of a shit, poking his buttons because it amuses him as much as it amuses you.
The video you do record is easy enough. It looks like you’re about to do the exact thing Simon wants, but with just a quick edit, the screen fades to black, and a certain 80’s hit appears in its place.
It’s hilarious. Sensational. Gold star to you!
You send it off, locking your phone, deciding that you’ll veg out to some mindless television and go to bed at a decent time for once. Simon doesn’t respond to your text, which is odd, but not unusual.
It’s not until after you’ve made yourself dinner that you find out why.
“You never sent me the video.”
Simon’s voice comes from nowhere. You scream, drop your bowl of pasta, and spin around, wielding the fork like a weapon.
“Where the fuck did you come from?”
Simon shrugs. “I have my ways.”
“Simon,” you warn.
His mouth stretches into the faintest hint of a smirk. “And I thought I’d come for the real thing.”
John "Soap" MacTavish
Johnny is a dog. Hungry. Wanton. If he could, he’d probably live in your skin. Which is why he’s always texting you, sending dirty messages.
Touch yourself. Show me.
You could show him. Snap a few pictures of you pleasing yourself and send them off in intervals to prolong the teasing. It would work him up. Work you up. But there is a better option. An option that’ll drive Johnny crazy—that’ll make him more desperate for what he’s asking for.
You want a picture, you text out.
Aye. Course I do.
Not like he’s gone without. The two of you have exchanged countless photos, and it’s entirely likely that most of the photos saved to his phone are of you. Naughty ones, specifically. Johnny enjoys having them for when he’s gone for long periods of time. A little treat for him, but more like masturbation material.
It’s easy to manipulate a few files, find a GIF online of what you’re looking for. Via text won’t work. You opt for email. It may confuse him, but knowing Johnny, he’ll just be happy you’re sending a naked photo. Not that it is.
It isn’t. It’s you trolling him because he’s always doing it to you.
The email is sent off with a swoosh. You patiently wait, expecting him to reply back with a snarky response.
But when your phone starts to buzz, the screen showing not a phone call but a video chat, you know Johnny means business.
Kyle "Gaz" Garrick
My dick is so hard.
You taking it when I come home?
Want to see you bounce on it.
You’re grinning like an idiot as Kyle’s texts come in. Kyle doesn’t usually engage in phone sex or dirty talk over text. This is a bit of a treat, and you’re enjoying it, sending back messages that are just as filthy. Kyle isn’t shy about sex, but sometimes it’s nice to see him squirm.
Send a picture. I wanna see you.
He’s too sweet for his own good. And while you’d oblige him otherwise, you also see an opportunity. Why not poke at him a bit. Have some silly fun. What you send him is not a nude.
And Kyle’s response is not a text but a phone call.
You answer. Put it on speaker.
“Did you just send me a Josh Hutcherson fan cam vid set to a cover of Flo Rida’s ‘Whistle?’”
“Didn’t know you were so hip, Kyle.”
“I’m on social media,” he mumbles. He clears his throat. “I still want that photo.”
“Hm. Yeah. Sure thing,” you reply nonchalantly. Kyle says your name with a sternness that excites you. “Have to go!” you say with a bit too much cheer.
Without waiting for his reply, you end the call, and tucking the phone underneath the pillow as it begins to buzz again.

U-NO.
Mikuverse + Underverse PART 1
No hate to blueberry, he is silly. But JAIL to yanberry (I seriously can't help but feel uneasy by his existence im sorry. 💔 please correct me if i am misunderstanding the fella)
On the other hand, mimukauwa miku execution at noon. (If you don't recognize this version of Miku, please see the "more" section below.)
On a positive note! I am cooking up more drawings of sans aus and mikus/vocaloids(/ any other voicebank software) that I think would have an interesting interaction. So yeah!
⚠️TW: below I talk about indirect CP, suggestive content, PDF files (y'know) and f*tish content. All of which I do NOT encourage or support. ⬇️⬇️⬇️
If you don't recognize the green hair miku, she is from the song Mimukauwa Nice Try by Nununu. The creator of the song outright said that the song was L0libait. The version of miku featured is allegedly around 10 years old and "teases" the viewer about beating an UNO game. it's all gross stuff, which I won't mention here. But know it's nothing graphic, it's all indirect with the most obvious intentions. It's so gross knowing that the artist INTENDED and ENCOURAGES the act of s*xualizing minors even if it's "not real".
It's what makes the difference between songs like Mimukauwa Nice Try, and Rabbit Hole by DECO*27 (which I will talk about in my next post)
meanwhile Rabbit Hole is being shamed for confronting real world problems in a "too straight foward" and "overly s*xual" yet symbolic, Mimukauwa Nice Try is being praised for its animation and "catchy melody". Despite being such blunt and obvious f*tish content.
All Mikus are canon, and that's not always a good thing 😓
DON'T BE A WEIRDO AND GOON TO FICTIONAL, OR WORSE, REAL CHILDREN. THATS GROSS. and very illegal. You will go to jail.
(Sorry this post is darker than usual, ill try to stay off sensitive topics. I just thought this was something to point out.)

hey i am kashikas no.1 fan and defender and i think that kashika is an actual masterpiece and maybe the best song in the game???? it's so gorgeous and shows off akito's character and vocals so so incredibly well. not to mention all of the other members and meiko????? people seem to think it's "boring" and like. i dont. i dont get it???? the instrumentation is masterfully done, the melody is catchy whilst also being bittersweet but also so very hopeful, and the lyrics.
my god, the lyrics. i could go for hours about their relatability, but as per the nature of the song, that would go against this blogs no venting rule, and i wanna respect that. but the lyrics, while being heartwrenching, also convey a sense of hope. akito, though wanting to die, also wants to live. to live, to love, and, most importantly. to sing.
suffice it to say i love kashika and could talk about it for hours but my 20 page research paper on this song alone would not fit into tumblrs asks unfortunately
i love you akito shinonome pls never die. i dont think another pjsk song can surpass kashipeak for me im sorry
(if this isn't obvious can i have kashika anon pls? i dont think its alr taken)

why "epic: the musical" should NOT become mainstream media
before i start this, i need yall to understand that this is my personal opinion. you can literally just not expand the post if you disagree. you don't have to read this. do not cancel me over this. im serious. this is a personal opinion. tws: swearing (i wrote this kinda angrily)
i talk about VERY controversial topics in this post. this is a warning.
if you expanded this post. hi! i am going to hate it if epic becomes mainstream media and wyfilwma becomes a tiktok song.
basically, in this very very long post, i was express three main points. firstly, the artistic integrity of musical theatre. secondly, the importance of niche appeal. thirdly, mainstream music culture.
my first point is the artistic integrity of musical theatre.
musical theatre in itself is an incredibly niche art form. musical theatre has never been mainstream music, and for good reason. it isn’t meant to be consumed by audiences because it’s trendy. the songs tell full stories and they are meant to be enjoyed by fans that actually enjoy it. this is especially true with epic. epic is a musical that’s a very niche thing about a very old and a very tragic story. and yeah okay i can understand why some people might be happy it’s getting really popular. i'm happy its reaching people who appreciate the work. truly.
but i will honestly flip out if it becomes mainstream.
you have to consider the artistic integrity of epic. epic thrives on storytelling. the song is a part of a larger narrative and not a chart topping hit. YOU CANNOT SEPARATE WYFILWMA FROM THE STORY OF ODYSSEUS OF ITHACA. you cannot say that wyfilwma is your favourite song ever without also saying that you like epic.
furthermore, mainstream music also favours trends over artistic consistency.
if epic was pushed into commercial music producers and record labels might attempt to modify it and shit to fit the demands of popular radio. epic, as a very unique rock opera fusion, thrives because it appeals to an audience interested in theatrical storytelling. if this was sacrificed it would be watered down for widespread appeal, that would be the shittiest thing ever.
next: THE 👏 IMPORTANCE 👏 OF 👏 NICHE 👏 APPEAL 👏
the epic fandom is one of the least toxic i have ever seen. why? because fans analyse lyrics and discuss character arcs and create fan animatics and talk about the deeper meanings of songs instead of looking at the cast and saying “ew they’re so ugly. the cast is ugly. ew. ew their voice is ugly. ew, ew, ew.”
everyone will agree with me when i say that fandoms get increasingly problematic as they become more mainstream.
THE SHIFT TO MAINSTREAM STATUS WILL ALIENATE LONGTIME FANS WHO APPRECIATE EPIC. EPIC DEMANDS A LEVEL OF ENGAGEMENT THAT CASUAL LISTENERS OF MAINSTREAM MEDIA WILL NOT UNDERSTAND OR INVEST THEMSELVES INTO.
MORE-FREAKING-OVER, niche media benefits from its audience’s passion. many epic fans enjoy feeling like they are part of a unique community. i enjoy that feeling. we share our love for something that not everyone knows about. we gatekeep because we know it’s special. if epic becomes widespread like pop hits, it will lose that sense of belonging that makes this fandom so special.
THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION BTW BC I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE LIKE MAINSTREAM MUSIC AND THAT LIKE 50 YEARS AGO THE MUSIC I LISTEN TO WAS MAINSTREAM SO BY THAT LOGIC IM A HYPOCRITE. BUT NOWADAYS ARTISTS LIKE SWIFT AND CARPENTER ARE LIKE…. I DONT LIKE THEM MUCH. LIKE. I’M SORRY.
and it's okay if you disagree. we can still be friends. why? because i dont block people because we have different opinions, and this post is just me sharing mine. thanks!
lastly, i'm going to talk about why epic is mismatched with mainstream music culture.
mainstream music, in general, and by nature, prioritises broad accessibility over deep narrative engagement.
SONGS ON RADIO AND BILLBOARD HITS ARE MEANT TO BE INSTANTLY CATCHY AND WHILE EPIC HAS DEFINITELY POWERFUL MELODIES, ITS SONGS ARE STRUCTURED TO SUPPORT A LARGER STORY RATHER THAN A STANDALONE HIT.
SONGS LIKE FULL SPEED AHEAD AND OPEN ARMS MAKE SENSE WITHIN THE ODYSSEY’S EMOTIONAL JOURNEY. OUTSIDE THAT CONTEXT, THEY WILL NOT RESONATE THE SAME WAY.
this next line is going to make half of tumblr block me. please go ahead: pop songs that focus on shitty themes like love and heartbreak and partying that is absolute dogshit compared to non-mainstream music.
epic tells a specific story rooted in greek mythology. it appeals to epic fans because we connect to odysseus. we enjoy greek mythology. THAT is why we love epic.
in conclusion:
epic is brilliant. its innovative. jorge rivera-herrans is amazing. epic is awesome. i love it, and i am happy that more and more people who are genuinely in love with this kind of storytelling are finding this musical and enjoying it.
but this musical's strength lies in theatrical nature, niche appeal, and storytelling depth. all of these would be compromised if it was forced to conform to mainstream music standards. instead of attempting to make epic fit into a commercial success, it should be celebrated for what it is: unique, narrative-driven, and something that thrives best amongst fans that actually appreciate the work.
#epic the musical#jorge rivera herrans#epic musical#epic odysseus#epic the ithaca saga#would you fall in love with me again#wyfilwma#controversy#epic#odysseus of ithaca#odysseus epic#the odyssey#odyseuss

sorry but as a longtime charli fan her whole admit you're so jealous of me i'm just living that life woo is beyond cringe at this point. i get that it fits the brat concept but like ma'am you're a 31 year old woman it's not cute anymore. idk how anyone can listen to von dutch without getting major secondhand embarrassment
i turned 31 yesterday and if im being honest (and taking into consideration two recent leaks i heard not even 15 mins ago) this IS what i would be doing for an album if I were charli LOL it circles back so perfectly to the scene that was there before she released her first album as xcx.... charli started to gain traction during the witch house era but she was there during the late new rave myspace era was around and where the electroclash electro punk influence was immense and that mood was EXACTLY what brat is trying to be about. its so obvious and natural i just think you're projecting expectations of what a 31yo woman should be portraying herself as not even trying to be woke but like lol... charli never promised us something too somber or high brow she sticks with club ready catchy pop and tries to engineer around that and its VERY well thought out IMO... maybe its cause i started to get into music the same time as her but idk im extremely excited she looks GOOD the attitude is RIGHT the songs SLAP and mind you im not afraid to tap out when she drops something i dont like (sucker/charli)

OKAY SO I JUST WATCHED/LISTEN TO ‘THE STORIES OF STYX’ and i have f e e l i n g s .
I WANNA PREFICE THIS ALL WITH I HOLD RESPECT FOR THE CREATORS OF THIS MUSICAL, ITS NO EASY FEAT TO WRITE LYRICS, COMPOSE MUSIC, GATHER ARTISTS, AND HAVE DO MANY COOL ARTISTS COME TOGETHER TO WORK ON A PROJECT,,,
SPOILERS OFC FOR ‘Stories from Styx’
okay so EUGH WAIT I FEEL REALLY MEAN RN,,,WAIT UH I JUST WANNA SAY IM BEING HONEST AND NOT TRYING TO BE AND ASS OR HATEFUL,,,UH PLZ DONT HATE ME FOR MY OPINIONS PEOPLE D:
personally i feel like the music was lacking overall—-artists who are genuinely talented had their voiced muddled by autotune that clashed with the instrumentals. the storytelling was f i n e
I will say some quotes from the songs were catchy or impactful. The two songs that stuck out to me thr lost being ‘There is no name’ and ‘Crossroads’,,,,, but there were several segments of the musical that was just instrumental and had to be relied on animation to tell the storytelling is,,which isn’t the job of a musical.
however my main issue relies with the over all story
the plot of ‘The Story from Styx’ revolves around Persephone and Hades.
IF U DONT KNOW THE STORY OF PERSEPHONE AND HADES HERES A SHORT VERSION:
—-
Persephone (daughter of Zeus and Demeter) is abducted by Hades (with thr assistance of Zeus) and forces her to be his wife. Demeter, heartbroken, goes through a depression causing crops to perish and famine to rise, to the point even the gods notice and try to get her to restore the harvest. Zeus is able to convince Hades to let Persephone see her mother. Prior to leaving the underworld though Hades feeds Persephone a pomegranate. After Demeter restores the harvest, happy seeing her child again, Hades pulls up and wants to take Persephone back to the underworld. Both Persephone and Demeter are confused and Hades explains by eating the pomegranate, Persephone practically signed a contract forcing her to stay in the underworld for some portion of the year and remain his wife. The months were Persephone is gone her mother lets the crops die. The whole myth basically says explains away Winter and Summer.
—-
sigh
in ‘Stories from Styx’ the creator portrays Persephone and Hades relationship as consensual, as something they both want but her mother dislikes, which irks me the wrong way if you will. There’s also the fact that Hades is Persephone’s UNCLE.
I love passion projects, theres something to en said about someone who loves something so much there willing to put time and money and sacrifice for it AND ITS SO COOL when story’s and fables can be told in unique ways—-and i do truly believe this could have been good if the creators did not romanticize Persphone’s abuse.
I wanted to stray away from comparing this musical to epic but i feel like i kinda have to in order to get my point across. Epic derives from thr Odyssey and is about 75% to 80% accurate to the original stories details, all of which being relatively minor things. Both creators started from thr same point of needing to compose their own music/re-tell a myth, higher good singers, and commission artists.
One creator had a theme however, a message—-connections from previous songs and sagas into new ones to tell and over arching story. The other one didn’t
I really wanna like the ‘Stories from Styx’ but i fear i just cannot get behind it, this could have been SUCH A GOOD tragedy but i feel it lacking—-missing feeling and verging on monotone.
LIKE IDK IM SO SORRY IFK I HET SHES ALSO A CHASO GODDESS AND THAT HE WAS SO INCREDIBLY LONLEY AND OVER WORKED AND ALL THAT STUFF BUT LIKE G U Y S
AM I MISSING SOMTHING 😀
SIGH
i really like the stoey of Persephone and Hades—-AND IN NO WAY AM I TRYING TO DEMONIZE HADES,,,HES SIMPLY A GOD HES NOT IMMEDIATELY EVIL IN MY BAIN SIMPLY BECAUSE HE RULES THE UNDERWORLD—-THATS JUST HIS FUCKING JOB
AHHHHHHHHHH IDK
#Stories from Styx#the odyssey#hades#persephone#demeter#rant post#plz don’t hate me#AHHHHH#GUYS IDK AM I MISING SOMTHING HUH#PLZ DONT CANCELL ME TUMBLR#I GENUINLY RESPECT ALL THE PPL WHO PUT TIME AND EFFORT AND LOVE INTO THIS
