dream & george; falling in love
Dream: 'Have either of you talked about liking each other in the past?'
George: *Scoffs*
Dream: ... Well—
George: *Giggles*
Dream: Well, none of the answers fit. But I'd say, like, we've talked about 'whether' ...
George: The weather?
Dream: Yeah.
Dream: The realisation that, once again, I met someone that's not going to be my friend, but something more. They were never meant to be my friend in the first place. I can't avoid it. If I'm going to fall in love, I'm going to fall in love. So this song is a cry to please be gentle, please don't make me even more paranoid.
Dream: I want that part of my life to be private, you know? Regardless of who that person is ... Once the cameras are off, once we're not doing anything, it's our time. It's me and you. There's no one else. No one else exists in the world, regardless of the fact that there's thirty-million people that are looming over.
Dream: Because I'm famous and because I have all this attention on me—when I'm in my normal life it's like, I want to put the people in my life in the spotlight and make sure they feel that way. But then there's lyrics like 'the celebrity in my bed' and 'close the curtains now you're all mine' ... It's about, you know, that special someone in your life, and how in my mind, because I feel so special, I want them to feel that same specialness. So, yeah, it's about relationships and how I want that person to feel special like I do.
dream @/dreamwastaken: .@/GeorgeNotFound you've had such a big impact on my life I don't even know where to start. helping me code my videos sometimes, helping with random ideas within videos, encouraging me and always being the light in the room to make things even just a little bit brighter. you took a chance on me out of university, making thumbnails and coding for scraps because we wanted to make it big and I’m proud to say that we did it and I’ll have an appreciation for you for the rest of my life because of your friendship, kindness, and love you’ve shown me. love you man. idc if you’re never serious or if we joke around a lot, you have a place in my heart and I’m looking forward to finally meeting you and taking our next step in content creation and friendship. LOVE U
Dream: 'Spotlight' is a song I wrote about making that special someone in my life feel as special as they truly are ... I want to be there to support them through the ups and downs, and make them feel like they have a million fans screaming cheering them on, even if it's just my voice echoing a million times. They are the most important person in the world and the only one in that spotlight of love and admiration, and I want them to know that.
a lot of my future is your future

ok ok so... AU where Gareth is Steve’s younger brother??
Because Steve has ‘only child’ written all over him, but I think it would be fascinating if he had a sibling, especially a younger one.
Gareth is the black sheep of the family, likes the wrong sort of music, hangs out with the weird kids, plays that game all the news stations are saying is satanic. He’s three years younger than Steve, just a bit too much for them to ever be close, but really it’s their parents who drive a wedge between them. Steve’s their golden child. Good at sports, dating that Wheeler girl their parents love. He’s the poster boy for the all american teenager. In the eyes of their parents, Steve can do no wrong. Gareth stays out after his curfew? Grounded for two weeks. Steve throws a party when his parents are gone? Just don’t do it again, okay?
Needless to say the Harrington boys don’t really get along. Gareth is pissed that Steve gets away with everything. That their parents seem to actually like him, parade him around in front of their friends, keep his sports throphies on a shelf in the living room. When Gareth won a contest in middle school for a short story he wrote his parents didn’t even bat an eye. He keeps the little plaque he got for it in the bottom of his sock drawer, embarrased that he even cares. Within the walls of their house, Gareth doesn’t even get to be himself without feeling judged.
Steve on the other hand can’t help but envy his little brother. He’d never mention it of course, if anyone asks he can’t stand the little twerp. But it’s hard to miss that Gareth actually knows who he is. He has an opinion for himself and doesn’t seem to care how their parents feel about that. Steve can barely pick a shirt without worrying if their mother would approve. Gareth has friends who clearly care about him, a group of self proclaimed freaks who all clearly hate Steve. He has hobbies he actually likes and ideals he cares about. So yeah... Steve’s kinda jealous sometimes.
Especially after Nancy breaks his heart. When he doesn’t get into college and his parents approval runs dry. When he can’t make it through a family dinner without questions about whatever happened to his potential. All the years of trying to impress their parents weren’t even worth it. And now the little brats he babysits have started high school and they won’t shut up about how cool his little brother is.
When both Steve’s status and his mental health start to slip, Gareth can’t help but feel a little bit bad. People don’t respect his older brother the way they used to and their parents no longer give a fuck about either of them. Good thing Gareth has years worth of experience being an outcast and a friend group that’s more than a little curious to find out whatever happened to the King of Hawkins High...

Something satisfying and sweet about playing a githyanki while romancing Lae’zel. I definitely don’t have the words to fully explain the feeling but something like
Two people taken by their species’ sworn enemies and made thrall*
*Get lucky enough to not be enthralled actually
Also get lucky the ship crashed and you get out of your pod and find another of your kind immediately
They work well with you and other istiks that are infected (but also not enthralled??) and keep a good team of solid adventurers
Maybe they’re a little soft and help random istiks for no reason
Maybe they didn’t pay attention to learn all you know about these stupid ghaik
But they fight damn well and you’re obsessed
You follow all known protocol only to be nearly killed trying to be cured by your own people
Your godlike queen lies and betrays you (whether you see it yet or not) and this other gith simply seems to move on, they’ll survive with you even if that means without the rest of your entire race
The party will be cured, they’ll make sure if it
Okay wait kinda care about the istiks you’re traveling with
Okay wait more than obsessed with that other gith
Okay wait this fae run isn’t so bad
You now have hope for a future, no matter what happens now. Your future is beyond what bound you before, you’re free of your people and any royal loyalties you’ve held.
“Your people” are this gith (your gith, the source of your joy!) and the companions you keep, now and whomever you (or they) find later
And against all odds, after your entire past is torn to shreds, you do get a future
Idk something something two githyanki against the world and learning how to love and be people not weapons
(This is long enough so the rest of the pics below cut lol)
