šŸŽ„ Pick a fic and I'll tell you the song I imagine playing during its movie trailer.
revolution!!
now if I were to answer this for myself, and this is weird because I haven't made any explicit references to the song, but I almost feel like it would have to be Dynasties and Dystopia. it works for both main characters, it carries that high energy that I think characterizes the start of the story really well (and hopefully will characterize the end when some characters come back into the fray and things get crazy again). I think it would also highlight that even though I'm writing multiple AUs lol I'm committed to representing the characters in ways that still hit at their core and just present them in a different situation.
but I'm also curious what you'd pick if you had to choose for a trailer!
send me asks while I cook Thanksgiving dinner!

In the swamplands of Florida there sits a forcefield that formed after a meteor hit the area. Separated from regular life by a kaleidoscopic shell whose circumference continues to expand, The Shimmer, as itā€™s called, has claimed the lives of every man who has gone insideā€Šā€”ā€Šexcept one. Biologist Lena (Natalie Portman) lost her husband Kane (Oscar Isaac) after he was presumably killed during a military operation, but when Kane returns home with his memory gone and his health failing, Lena looks for answers.
She then joins an all-female research team consisting of a physicist, a geologist, a paramedic, and a psychologist, all of whom volunteer to enter The Shimmer in what amounts to a suicide mission. While inside, the women find a gorgeous world that defies natureā€Šā€”ā€Šbut the mutations taking place within threaten to destroy the women, their team, and eventually, the world.
4. Anon (2018)
Tumblr media
EW grade: (read the review)
Director: Andrew Niccol
Cast: Clive Owen, Amanda Seyfried, Colm Feore, Mark Oā€™Brien,
Privacy and anonymity are luxuries afforded to no one in the 2018 British-American sci-fi thriller Anon. Clive Owen stars as Detective Sal Frieland, a troubled cop operating in a dystopia where the entire populace is implanted with an ocular device intended to record and track the movements of the people around them. The governmentā€™s transparency methods ensure that all criminal activity is caught on tapeā€Šā€”ā€Šbut when a mysterious woman with no digital footprint (Amanda Seyfried) crosses paths with Sal, he realizes she might have a connection with a series of unsolved murders heā€™s investigating. Director Andrew Niccol tells EW ā€œI always wanted to do a movie about privacy and the fact that there was never a war for privacy, because we already lostā€Šā€”ā€Šwe gave away our privacy without a fight, all for convenience.
3. Bird Box (2018)

EW grade: B (read the review)

Sight becomes a handicap in Bird Box, a post-apocalyptic thriller where the enemy must go unseen, or else. Sandra Bullock stars as Malorie Hayes, a woman responsible for transporting two young children down a river while wearing blindfolds, a strategy intended to help the survivors avoid seeing the entities that attacked Earth five years earlier, and who cause those who look upon them to commit suicide. Jumping between their present journey and the past events that led Malorie and the children to this point, director Susanne Bier leans into the tension of the unknown and relies on her talented but eclectic cast to do the rest. Released the same year as A Quiet Place, and possessing a somewhat similar premise, Bird Box received less attention when it first premiered, but this sci-fi horror film is a great option for fans of both genres.
2. Black Mirror: Bandersnatch (2018)
Tumblr media
Director: David Slade
Cast: Fionn Whitehead, Will Poulter, Craig Parkinson, Tallulah Rose Haddon, Catriona Knox
As it turns out, the only thing missing from the British anthology series, Black Mirror, was options. In Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, the TV show gets a movie makeover, but with a twist: The film was shot in the style of a ā€œchoose your own adventureā€ novel, and viewers are able to customize their viewing experience through their scene selections. Centered around a young programmer named Stefan (Fionn Whitehead), Bandersnatch follows Stefanā€™s journey in developing a video game for a famous gaming company, a journey that puts Stefan under a great deal of mental and emotional stress, and results in one of ten main endings. Black Mirror is beloved for its eldritch and tech-focused content, and Bandersnatch keeps that tone alive, using the main storyline to explore themes like free will and mind control, even as the viewersā€™ choices drive the story forward.
Donā€™t Look Up (2021)
Tumblr media
EW grade: B (read the review)
Director: Adam McKay
Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Jonah Hill, Meryl Streep, Timothee Chalamet, Ariana Grande, Cate Blanchett, Mark Rylance, Melanie Lynskey, Chris Evans

As a comet sets its sights on Earth and prepares to wipe out human civilization, two astronomers (Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence) rush to warn the world of the impending collisionā€Šā€”ā€Šonly to discover the world doesnā€™t really care. ā€œBased on events that havenā€™t happened yet,ā€ as the filmā€™s trailer states, Donā€™t Look Up is a sci-fi satire that skewers climate deniers and government inaction in the face of scientific evidence pointing to looming catastrophe. Directed by Adam McKay (Vice, The Big Short), and featuring everyone in Hollywood from Jonah Hill and Meryl Streep to Timothee Chalamet and Ariana Grande, Donā€™t Look Up offers great jokes and fun cameos, but be warned: itā€™s not exactly light fare. Still, as far as sci-fi comedies go, this one is worth a watchā€Šā€”ā€Šjust donā€™t think too deeply about the implications of the filmā€™s ending.

Months later inĀ Portland, Oregon, Jesse, a 12-year-old runaway who was abandoned by his birth mother, is roaming the streets with his friends, begging for money and stealing. To evade police in pursuit, Jesse breaks into a building that turns out to be the adventure park's orca viewing area.
While doing graffiti on the building walls and its water tank, Jesse comes face to face with the large orca before ultimately getting caught by the police.
Later, his social worker Dwight informs him that foster parents Annie and Glen Greenwood would be happy to take him in. Jesse, who hopes to be reunited with his birth mother, begrudgingly goes to live with the Greenwoods.
In lieu of being sent to juvenile hall, Jesse is allowed to make up for his vandalism at the park by cleaning and painting the observation area.

Share ten different favorite characters from ten different pieces of media in no particular order, then send this to 10 people (anon or not, your choice) šŸŽ„šŸŽ¬šŸ“ŗ
These are going to be in no particular order because if there is anything I hate, it's rating my faves or comparing them to each other.
*~*~*~*~*
Tumblr media
Geralt of Rivia - Multiple pieces of media
I first saw him in The Witcher series, then played The Witcher 3, then started reading the books. I am definitely obsessed with this man. And if I write too much on Geralt, I'm libel to make headcanons or maybe even an entire fic on just Geralt's hair or the way his eyes seem to glow under moonlight. See? Obsession. He is also my comfort character. I go to sleep and imagine running in the woods to this man. What the actual fuck?
Tumblr media
Walter Marshall - Night Hunter (2018)
Seeing as how I am currently writing fic about this man, I think it goes to show this is a well-crafted yet moldable character and he can do no wrong in my opinion. Unless he dates Rachel, that's wrong in my opinion. She doesn't even have a last name.
Tumblr media
Joel Miller - The Last of Us Games, The Last of Us series
Now I would be remiss to not mention Pedro's portrayal of Joel Miller (and that it solidified his status a my cool slutty daddy). But I must talk about how Troy Baker's voice in the game gave me strong Daddy vibes and gave me my second crush on a video game character after Lara Croft when I was a kid.
Tumblr media
Ethan Hunt - Mission Impossible films (1996-Present)
If you know me, you know I have seen every Mission Impossible film since the first came out when I was 9. I was, and will most likely always be, obsessed with these movies. I love the heart-stopping action moments, the raw emotions, and I really like when Tom Cruise almost dies in every movie.
Tumblr media
Peter Parker - Multiple pieces of media but I will focus on the films
In 2002, I was 15 and liked the older man that was Tobey Maguire (I was a superfan of his and of Peter). I had a Spider-man trapper keeper for goodness sake! In 2012, I was 25 and I was crushing on Andrew Garfield as a contemporary, someone in my age group. In 2017, I was turning 30 and had a crush on what, to me, seemed like a little boy in Tom Holland (he was over 18 but still). Either way, when asked what my favorite superhero is, I always say Spider-Man.
Tumblr media
Bernadine Harris - Waiting to Exhale (1995)
I was 8 when this movie came out and my Momma let me watch it with her. Little did I know, my mother was ready to divorce my cheating father. This character spoke to me and continues to speak to me. I still see my Momma when I watch this movie. She was so badass. And so sexy.
Tumblr media
Olaf - Frozen films
Fun fact: I used to collect snowman figurines and snow globes. Knowing this, my young niece made me watch the first film. Josh Gad as an inept snowman who loves the idea of summer is so fucking dramatic that I watched this movie on my own plenty of times. I love him so much and I just wanted to cuddle him.
Tumblr media
Castiel - Supernatural (2005-2020)
I started watching Supernatural by watching the live airing of Simon Said, the worst episode of the series some would say. But I stuck around. I wanted to see what the kids on LiveJournal were so excited about. Cue season 4 and this son of a bitch just waltzes in with his wings and his coat and his chapped lips that, to this day, have never seen any moisture. And I fell in love. Fun fact: my dad named his dog Castiel.
Tumblr media
Frank Reynolds (but specifically as Ongo Goblogian) - It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
I have artwork in my bedroom over my nightstand of Ongo. This entire episode was gold to me. It was early season 8, I believe. Charlie was doing a Richard Grieco thing, Dennis was trying to get his erotic memoirs made into a Fifty Shades of Grey type thing. Mac was in the duster. Dee was in a smut film. Just golden. But then Frank was this Andy Warhol-esque art collector just doing the most. It was beautiful.
Tumblr media
Louise Belcher - Bob's Burgers series and film
Louise, what can I say about this wonderful human that hasn't already been said? Louise is what I wish trauma didn't take from me. Louise likes to slap beautiful people, as do I. She is confused when she likes a boy, and so am I some of the time. And Louise has her comfort clothing item, her hat. I have my froggy robe and my penguin socks. In the latest season that just ended, it was pretty much confirmed that Louise is non-binary, as am I. My fiancee compares me to Louise on a daily basis and I just smile and tell her she's 100% correct because she is. Louise embodies me when I was 9 years old, right before childhood trauma took all of that away and replaced it with an old curmudgeon. I love my sweet Louise and no one can ever tell me that my love is unwarranted.
I would love to tag people to do this, but I know a lot of us are in the same circles LOL. This was too fun!

šŸŽšŸ›Œ ā³ and šŸŽ„ (for the zombie bedrock bros fic)?
šŸŽ What is something you learned while researching a fic?: Learnt so much about boats, and pirates, and cannons. Who knew cannons couldnt resonably explode backwards who in the world could have guessed <- not me i could not have guessed
šŸ›ŒWhat's a trope you haven't written, but want to?: Hmmm that's a hard one. My gut reaction is to say timeloop but i have already technicly written a fic with that - Mantis why must you ask hard question of me :(((
Everything i can think of are already in my drafts!!! D:
OH OH OH WAIT ISEKAI! THAT COUNTS AS A TROPE I WANNA WRITE SOMETHING ISEKAI ONE DAY :D (the trouble i had thinking of that. Struggling, i am truly strugging lmao <33)
ā³If you could go back in time and tell your younger writer self one thing, what would it be?: I would explain the diffrence between 's and s. I would explain it and tell little me to ALWAYS remember because it is going to be important!!
Also i would tell my younger writer self that the reason my story keeps switching from present tense to past tense is because i write present tense, add said, then switch to past tense.
šŸŽ„ Song i imagine playing during this fics movie trailer: Right now by Gracie Abrams. It's so incredebly that fic it is so so <3333 The vibes!!!
Bonus song: The Rockrose and the Thistle by The Amazing Devil.
Reasonably both of those also fit well into my Other bedrock bros zombie fic im planning, i follow the same tropes what can i say

December 12, 2023
ā€œEmpower me to exercise the authority of honesty, and be a participant in the difficult ordinariness of now.ā€ ā€” Ted Loder
Dearest Richard,Ā 
Tumblr media
The anticipated letter arrives from Jeffries. Having been written on July 9, 1945. Before I open it with you, I need to halt for a moment. Pulling in the details I now know. Imagining how this part of the story may have unfolded. Stepping back in time.
Jeffries had arrived in Boston from Europe on June 31, 1945. He was there for 20 hours and next on to Fort Dix for a six day furlough. Then the finale of this extensive never ending trail to Philadelphia, he was home at last. Writing this ten days later. Whoosh. Just need to breathe in that reality. I am guessing he chatted with you about his hometown a lot. So much so that maybe you could even have envisioned it in your mindā€™s eye. Finding home often has so much more significance the further we find ourselves from it.Ā 
Tumblr media
Here is where Jeffries would have been tip tap, typing this letter at 416 W. Harlan St. SeeingĀ him sitting at a table in this two bedroom, one bath row house. He had spoken to four families by phone and had an idea of what folks wanted to know.Ā 
Again thinking about how this letter, as in your Killed in Action (KIA) letter grandpa received could have been interspersed with plain old every day mail. Ads and bills all vying for space in the mailbox not being aware of the most essential envelope that might be in the mix. Mail can often be simple and common place. Delivered to your doorstep six days a week and then something arrives that asks for that moment to be halted. Freeze framed before going any further.Ā 
This one was opened on the side with a letter opener. The envelope may have been breath blown open more before the two typed stationery pages would have been extracted. I donā€™t know how many times it would have been read. Trying to absorb what the details meant. Maybe only reading so far before stopping or hesitating. Sharing it with your beloved sister or whom ever else may have been around. Or your dad may have simply read it on his own. Maybe getting his glasses or sitting down in a familiar chair in the living room or at the kitchen table where the light was brighter. I donā€™t know and I realize I canā€™t imagine the emotions he felt. Another time where words are insufficient and how anything else present would have seemed inconsequential. The windows being open on a hot July day. The Nicollet traffic rumbling by or a neighbor mowing their lawn next door. The birds chirping in the treetops. Or it may be that nothing else was heard or could be heard. The moment getting stuck in place. That is what I imagine might have occurred on that possibly steamy hot day in July.Ā 
Not quite ready to release this letter to you. Appreciating your ever present patience.Ā 
Love as always, Ā 
Your Niece ā¤ļø

While I was searching for some fan-art with Metternich in my collection not so long ago, I suddenly came across these two sketches Iā€™ve not shared on Tumblr before. Even though now Iā€™m aware of some huge mistakes in their appearances (primarily Schwarzenbergā€™s one: since then Iā€™ve seen a bunch of planchettes depicting Austrian soldiers and officers at the different stages of Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars which made me rethink a lot - especially his hair style), love the general meaning behind it all so far. ā¤ļø
One day Iā€™ll probably make an adequate redrawā€¦ However, that doesnā€™t stop me from posting the ā€œoriginalā€!
Besides, they still look pretty cool and cinematic. šŸŽ„āœØ
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The concept itself came to me, when I was exploring Metternich and Schwarzenbergā€™s lives once again in search for a ā€œcommon groundā€ - major milestones in the Napoleonic wars period which brought them closer, until theyā€™ve started working hand in hand in practical terms. The most important one is, for sure, the war of the Fifth Coalition culminating in the battles of Wagram and Znaim.
Wonā€™t go into details on this one: thereā€™re many people out there who are much more familiar with the Austrian campaign of 1809 and itā€™s origins. Iā€™m still a noob who has a lot - A LOT - to learn about (three volumes of Gillā€™s ā€œThunder on the Danubeā€ā€¦ *looking respectfully with almost holly fear* šŸ‘šŸ‘). However, the circumstance which interests me the most is that the events of the day brought back to the shores of the Danube two Austrian ambassadors - a military man and a professional diplomat. The military man discussed the matters of the Danube principalities and the Ottoman Empire with the Russian court in Saint-Petersburg: they had been waging war against Turks since 1806; and the diplomatā€¦ well, letā€™s say that after his mission the brilliant city of Paris took a special place in his heart~
Briefly speaking, Metternichā€™s struggles on his journey back, which started in May, were phenomenal since he had to travel during the war time in a state of a living ā€œbargaining chipā€, meanwhile Schwarzenberg almost missed Wagram itself because of the long detour he had to take on his way back to the Austrian empire. Still in the first days of July they were both present before emperor Franz (as well as Gentzā€™s inquisitive gaze and feather) - after that one of them went straight to the front line.
What came next, history says for itself. A series of defeats (Znaim being the fatal blow, since Wagram wasnā€™t that disastrous at all - it was a worthy showdown, even the French acknowledge this in their memoires), humiliating peace of Schƶnbrunn and the disgrace that finally overtook the countryā€™s war party (since emperor Franz had never been a big fan of it all). Now the time had come for the pacification of Napoleon. It was also the time for the recently appointed chancellor and Austrian ambassador in Paris to shine. āœØ
Despite all odds, it was certainly a new beginning - extraordinary one for Metternich, incredibly difficult and tedious one for Schwarzenberg. Nevertheless, it was for the greater good - for the sake of the Habsburgā€™s Empire. And I sincerely believe that this thought lifted the spirits of such men of service even in the darkest hours (until itā€™s too much for them to handle as it was in Schwarzenbergā€™s case). šŸ‡¦šŸ‡¹
P.S.
These pair drawings actually made me think for the first time about how much ā€œfunā€ it was for the Austrians with their predominantly white uniforms (by the way, the three-coloured combo - white, red and gold - is one of my favourites now, thank you, my dear obsession šŸ¤ā¤ļøšŸ’›) to participate in a serious combat, when the heavy artillery fire was unleashed from the both sides. Like, man, at what state were the coats of the soldiers and officers afterwards, I canā€™t even imagineā€¦ ā˜ ļø
Also, Schwarzenbergā€™s face says it all for him.
ā€œWhy am I, a professional military man who dreams about guns, glory and making my job right, that cursed to miss all the triumph aka Aspern and Essling and now have to witness one more epic failure as it was with Ulm and Austerlitzā€.
At the meantime Metternich is just vibing. Mischievously, as always. šŸ˜Œ

āœ§*ā€¢.:*.ā€¢ aizawa, iida and denki helping their sick s/o.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
requested?: no.
warnings: mentions of hospitals, eating, and medicine.
word count: n/a
Tumblr media
aizawa would try his best to help you at home, but bring you to the hospital if he needed to.
ā€¢ in all honesty he probs wouldn't believe you at first-
ā€¢ but then he heard how gutteral your coughing was, and tried his best to help you from there.
"god, how'd you even get this sick in the first place? you're coughing up a storm."
ā€¢ definitely watches [favorite movie] with you, even if it isn't totally his style. he'll put up with it for you </3
ā€¢ he knows how much and when you need to take your meds, so there's no escaping that with shota.
ā€¢ he has cats meowing as his alarm for you to take your meds- so expect to hear them quite frequently.
the black haired male stands up and walks to your shared bedroom door, "i'm getting your medicine. be right back."
you genuinely hated the [flavor] medicine. it left a weird burning sensation in your throat and it just tasted funky.
groaning mentally when you saw your boyfriend coming back, you asked, "why do i have to take this again? isn't there a better tasting medicine i could take instead of .. whatever this one is-?"
"nope. now open up, i've got your water right here."
Tumblr media
iida would know everything there is to take proper care of you!
ā€¢ bless his heart
ā€¢ iida would take such good care of you omg!! hes your gentleman, and he wants you to feel better as soon as possible.
ā€¢ would definitely buy you whatever you want/need! did you want a certain drink? he's got it. you needed a heating pad/ice pack? tenya's running to the store already.
ā€¢ he makes sure you like the flavor of medicine he gets!
ā€¢ tenyas a sweetheart, so he wouldn't mind cuddling with you for a few minutes after you've taken your medication or eaten something.
ā€¢ might even give you a lil cheek kiss if you ask super nicely.
"[name]! it's time for lunch, did you want me to order something for you, or make something?"
ā€¢ he wouldn't let you step foot out of bed, unless you needed to use the restroom, bc iida wants you to rest so you get better!
ā€¢ obviously if you needed to stretch or if you wanted to watch a movie, he wouldn't tape you to the bed! he just wants his partner to feel healthy again.
Tumblr media
denki would try to distract you from your sickness.
ā€¢ he wouldn't want you to be sad about being sick! so he's constantly cracking jokes and making you laugh.
ā€¢ you laugh is so nice to him, so he wants to hear it all the time :)
ā€¢ he has a whole spotify playlist for when either of you gets sick so you can have a dance party in your dorm. and if you're both lucky, the bakusquad might join you two!
ā€¢ being with you makes him so happy, and he loves it so much when you smile! so he does little things to make things more fun while you're stuck in bed.
"hey [name]! i saw this thing on social media, maybe we could try it out together! does that sound fun?"
ā€¢ it ends up turning into a full on spa day, with you two doing eachothers nails, putting on face masks, and doing eachothers hair!
ā€¢ denki ends up messing up a little on his nails, so he has to ask you to do it for him (he messed up on purpose so you'd do them for him)
ā€¢ he obviously knows you still need your medicine, so he'd get whatever one you normally use and give it to you when you need it :)
ā€¢ totally doesn't fall asleep on you while you were watching the princess brideā€“

Lauren Halseyā€™s (@Summaeverythang) self-titled exhibitionā€”the first solo presentation by the artist in New Yorkā€”is now on view through June 11 at @davidkordanskygallery, 520 W. 20th Street in Chelsea.

Halsey imagines new possibilities for #art, #architecture, and #communityengagement. Combining found, fabricated, and handmade objects, her work maintains a sense of civic urgency and free-flowing imagination, addressing crucial issues confronting Black people, queer populations, and the working class. This exhibition highlights Halseyā€™s visionary, collaborative ethos, and includes new examples from several bodies of work. Among them are funkmound sculptures, including one with a functioning waterfall; twelve-foot-tall, hand-painted columns; wall-based sculptures composed using synthetic hair; wall-based reliefs on Hydro-Stone, gypsum, and foil supports; and sculptures constructed from stacked, painted boxes that evoke the signs and symbols of neighborhood life, as well as a new type of sculpture that channels the vivid energy of a streetscape...
In a recent major profile of Lauren Halsey by Robin Pogrebin (@rpogrebin) in @NYTimes, Charles Gaines, who taught the artist when she was an undergraduate at the California Institute of the Arts, says, ā€œ[Halsey's] not trying to unpack notions of racism, sheā€™s just trying to celebrate Blackness...Sheā€™s trying to bring into the realm of art things that are thought to be low culture, things that are victimized by a certain stereotype...ā€
