[delicrieux]

whaaaaa twny is ending 🥲🥲

i love your series so much!! 😩👏🏼 girl i was looking at your mlist and you’ve written so much for so many different fandoms!! 👀 that is awesome and impressive, im curious to read more of your work but dunno where to start so if you could recommend some of your favs that YOU’VE written that would be amazing? 🥹🫶🏻

do you think you’re gonna write any more for jjk?

anywho, thanks for blessing me with your delicious writing , jjk or not I’ll still read it bc that’s just how much i love your writing lol

-aly 💕

two chapters left my dear aly 🥹

oof, tbh i’ve written too much, i don’t even know where to start with a rec 😭 i guess the ones i really like and come to mind instantly are:

1. amortentia (its for hp, not sure if you’re into it, but it’s very dark and still in the process of being rewritten in parts)

2. time to pretend (also for hp, but it’s more of a comedy and a SLOW work in progress)

3. myso (soc media au, the written parts remind me of twny tbh. it’s crack & the mc is a chrollo stan so...)

i feel like these 3 show wildly different writing styles and themes, so ur bound to like something. honestly, if u see anything ur curious abt in the mlist or a fandom ur apart of, check it out!

i also have another gojo story in the works 😈 a yuta one, too. i’ll probably start working on them when i finish twny. at some point down the line i'll defo write a higuruma fic and a sukuna one too, but i wouldn't count on seeing them any time soon

anyway... ily!!!

secret ask attack: two /lies/ one truth! go go go go go!!!

(and btw welcome back beloved!)

Hmm this one is difficult but I'll try my best

Last time I visited my cousins we sneaked out at night to go see a night festival.

In 6th grade I sneaked out of school from the ground floor window with my friends to go out to play.

I helped my friend dye her hair without her mother's permission.

Ooooo you wanna tell me what you want so bad

Oooooo you're telling me what you want rn

i gives u credit for tryin so hard Σ(°△° ꪱꪱꪱ) but is not sayin

[i-am-literal-nightmare-fuel]

so I tend to write when I am not meant to be, so it’s 12 AM, let’s write some angst.

(Short fic under cut, nothing nsft (unless you count one day of the word sex as nsft, then 🤷‍♀️) about it I just put it under a cut)

Johnny never did well with feelings. The cobra’s could barely get a word about he he felt out of him but they did try their hardest, to no avail. Laura dropped him off at a therapist one time and one time only after he snuck out when the therapist wasn’t paying attention, causing Laura to get a very panicked call right when Johnny showed up on the doorstep. That was an argument that Johnny did not win.

Karate was always sort of an outlet for Johnny, a way to get all that anger and stress out there and away from him only for it to come flooding back when he saw LaRusso holding hands with the girl who was meant to be his girlfriend. He never did like Daniel for that reason, among others.

Ali was supposed to be his, so it hurt knowing she wasn’t, or that’s what he told himself. In reality, Johnny was happy knowing that someone was taking care of Ali properly, treating her how he should have. He didn’t have a good relationship to model off of, so their relationship was about as rocky as Sid and his mother’s but he doesn’t let that excuse how he treated her. He guesses that’s one of the reasons he get’s so angry about Daniel being with Ali, because seeing her being in a relationship and being happy makes him happy for her and Johnny doesn’t want that. He knows how bad that sounds, but he doesn’t want to see her happy with somebody else, let alone be okay with it.

Girls have always been infatuated with Johnny and he’s never quite understood it until he got to know them. The reasons range from his popularity, to the ‘I have a hot boyfriend’ card or his family’s money. Occasionally he gets some fucked up girl who wants people to be afraid of her, so she pulls the scary guy but aside from that, it’s always those first three. He’s been used for almost everything teenage girls can use boyfriends for. Money, revenge, popularity, bragging rights, trying to get their ex back, covering insecurities, sex. He’s been there, done that with a lot of the girls in this hell of a school and every single one of them pulls more energy from him.

There went a time before Ali came along that the Cobra’s had to come to Johnny’s house to drag him to school, Bobby couldn’t bear the sight of his best friend laying in bed, blank expression, used like a doll and discarded like one too. And that was when he needed karate more than ever, he’d show up 3 hours early to start training some days. He was motivated because he was hurting, and that was his outlet.

and then Ali came along.

Johnny had expected another girl who wanted some sick revenge on her boyfriend or to make herself look hotter, something of the like. Sure, he had always had his eyes set on Ali but it was different when he approached her. When he approached her, he was in control instead of her. He hated not being in control.

Ali was way out of what Johnny thought was his league, but she wanted to be with him and that somewhat terrified Johnny. He was so afraid he’d mess up, make her cry and she’d never come back. That maybe it was all a big joke on him, he’d had that happen once. But no, Ali liked Johnny and she liked him for him, he’d never had that happen so it was a shock to the system. He’d liked her for a long time and she actually liked him too, like heaven on earth.

Then the fights started and Johnny realised that he didn’t know what a healthy relationship was, Sid and Laura weren’t a good example, his past with girls wasn’t either. He tried to make up with her the way that he saw people do it on TV, buying gifts or half assed apologies because he didn’t know how to say what he meant but the fights just got more frequent until Ali snapped.

“That’s IT! I’m done with you!” Johnny would never forget feeling like he’d been stabbed when she said that, gasping at air he couldn’t get down but still remaining statue still. “Every. Single. Day! You’re not even good at apologising! Writing a half assed letter and buying me a fancy gemstone ring doesn’t magically make it better, Johnny!” He’d exceeded his allowance with those gifts by a lot, praying that Sid had enough money that he wouldn’t notice. But Ali had been right and she always was.

“I’m not good at apologising.”

At some point he remembers uttering those words to himself sitting on a cliff edge with the Cobra’s and some beer after a fight between himself and Bobby that had split the Cobra’s into two groups, Tommy on Bobby’s side, Dutch on Johnny’s and Jimmy who didn’t really know what to do. He always found something to fight over, with anyone. Hell, he’d had a fight with his mom not long before she passed. He’d fight anyone, over anything, at any time only because it made him feel like he was winning something when he won the argument.

Sure, he won the all valley twice, but he lost to Daniel. Sure, he had more girlfriends than most people he knew in high school, but he lost the only one he loved. He’s had a lot of things, And he’s lost them too. He’d never complain, of course.

after all he put everyone else through? He’d never let himself complain.

49ERS WIN RAHHHHHHHH

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH BANG BANG NINER GANG 💥💥💥

Me and @alypink watching that game was like

and then the comeback happened....

(based on this real conversation on discord 🤣🤣🤣)

Now onto the Super Bowl vs Chiefs!! I do think it's gonna be a dog fight between Niners and Chiefs. I surely want Niners to win, but Mahomes and Kelce and Andy Reid has more Super Bowl experience, so it's gonna be HARD.

but hey, at least Usher is performing in the halftime show. I LOVE HIM.

oh yeah almost forgot. Me and Aly also made a few discord touchdown stickers! 🤣

op deleted this like 0.5 seconds after posting but i Need it in my life

[high-voltage-rat]

I started playing stardew valley knowing pretty much nothing beyond "you got a farm" and "grandpa's bed is fucked up" and at first I thought it had vibes similar to what I'd seen from animal crossing. I'm just planting my little crops and fishing in the lake and checking in with the villagers every day. And then I stumbled on my first heart scene and it was a dude getting drunk and talking about being depressed. Anyway 10/10 would get emotional whiplash again.

HI ITS ME AGAIN fhfjfjgj

i just..i think about the difference between "loner" and "mirailight" alot and it makes me feel insane

like with how in Loner its almost self deprecating and his conflict is his past,and how he just wants it to change,and wants to become something that he couldnt before

BUT IN MIRAILIGHT like hes THERE now yknow and like the vibes are all different imo the softer tone when singing the way he says (roughly bc i know translations probably arent perfect) that hes been led into the future ,i just think about how all this time he had to do everything himself,always had to be on guard, always had to be someone he wasnt,but in mirailight everything is so different and then i go insane (as usual)

i just think the songs are such good ways to compare their growths as characters and just ARGH i am normal!!

HELLO HELLO,, YESSS !!! They're so good to demonstrate his growth, and the one thing I adore that they did with Mirailight was that he explicitly tells us his journey still isn't over. Like he reached his goal of becoming an actor and he wasn't content with just that, he needs to be the absolute best he can and that's just so fundamentally ingrained in his character.

Loner is so much more sombre and melancholy, not even just the lyrics, but the instrumentation too. Sure it swells at points, but it's kinda like a mirror to his portrait. Rather than pomp and flair, the song uses pure emotion and emphasises the truest desperation. I like to think how it shows he truly was alone before, and he could only rely on himself to express how he felt. It was raw, bare-bones, honest, open and truthful. The couple of lines that always stand out to me in Loner are about how he may as well be himself and it doesn't matter who he is because on stage he can become somebody entirely different. Because yeah, that's initially why he wanted to do this in the first place, he wanted to erase all evidence of the "monster of o high" and just be a normal guy.

But then in Mirailight, as you said he got there, he was led into the future he always wanted. But I find it interesting that he says (roughly, again with translation approximations) "Reflect on someone else's life and weave it into my life", he's acknowledging himself, Juza Hyodo, as a person. There's not just bare bones instrumentation anymore either, there's strings and synth and so much more complex backing, but that clean guitar is still there and pretty prominent above all of it. He's not just becoming another person to escape himself, but using his own experiences to further understand his characters rather than just being a 2d character from a page with no deeper motivations yk? (no offence to tsuzuru ofc, that was yuzo's criticism of aki with picturesque) And he's still looking forward to the future, even brighter, now he has support and opportunities and more than he could have ever imagined. He isn't done growing as an actor or a person, he is still striving for better but he's in a much better place to do so and that's the beauty of Juza I think.

The two are like sunset and sunrise* in terms of how different they are (the sun setting, leaving the world bleak and dark and generally yearning for the warmth of the sun/spotlight contrasted to the dawn of a new day with promise of a fresh start and new possibilities). Hell, it even says as much in mirailight in the first verse.

ANYWAY I completely getchu and am sooo normal about him too :]

*this wasn't related to music, but I think it's interesting how Juza's inital unbloomed SSR is him at sunset and then his second base unbloomed SSR is him at sunrise (AND it's called My Steps Have Become Light Too, are you kidding-). Could just be a coincidence, but he is so sunset/sunrise coded to me.
