My translyrics for Salamander, written out under the cut :D
This one was much more difficult than the last, but I'm still very satisfied with it! 😤 I'm both sad that my version lost a lot of the fun soundplay of the original, and also waaay more impressed with the lyrics and vocals after digging it like this! I tried to keep it balanced between the original and Fuuta's version, though maybe it ended up leaning more toward the cover, idk. Leaving my specific notes in the tags 👍
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I want a taste, but all this spice may prove more than I can take, (eh?)
Something's on your mind. So spit it out and tell me, don't waste my time, kay?
I'm hooked on this, pass me a dish.
The way I'm starving here without you -- it's a crime
A spicy treat, put on repeat,
Can I get seconds with the same heat? One more time!
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I can't stop anything, although I wouldn't want to stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.
I want a bite, I can't help giving in to this new appetite.
Again, again, I want to be on fire when I get to the end.
We live too fast, we burn to ash,
I never handled spices well and it's a crime.
A spicy treat, put on repeat,
Can I get seconds with the same heat? One more time!
I want to burn bright red
I want to burn bright red
Salamander~ Hot's nice, don't you agree? This pa- passion's fine, see?
"But" isn't what I wanna hear, so say "more" loud and clear.
Tell me I'm not alone in my mind!
Salamander~ Look what's happened to me. This pa- passion's crazy
Tell me I'm not delirious, I'm being serious.
It's heating up all through my mind when I'm with you.
I can't stop anything, although I wouldn't want to stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.
I want to leave I want to go, but I can never stop, oh no --
Take a breath, it's best to cool down or you earn yourself a burn.

Day 2 of me getting more expressions to get more icons from. If FCs won't do the job quite so well- I'll commission it.
This is a piece I commissioned for. Do not steal, do not edit, do not use, and do not repost. I was given permission to post this onto my blog.

southern nightfolk primarily dance the two-step, waltz, tango, salsa, and especially swing, with some nightfolky differences (maybe on the cieling, with fire and ice swirling around them, silly stuff to show off). and they get very into it, really feel the music and let it carry them away. they're high-energy dancers, typically, really work up a sweat. lots of influence from local cultures, but this is about the size of it.
dance tends to be an important passtime, something that's customary on dates, group events, upperclass social events, birthdays, parties, all of it (not unlike humans but still) even in a general sense for all nightfolk. there are exceptions, sure, but nightfolk everywhere are very much lovers of dance. there's intimacy to it, fun to be had, expression, all kinds of things.

It breaks my heart that there's not more samurai champloo fanfics because I love it so much and I have so many idea.
First off, Mugen's tattoos? Yes. Let's talk about those.
Because with all the mutt references, the great sense of smell, the overall feral air to him, the scruffy look, all I can think of is like a hellhound/demon type AU.
Something where Fuu accidentally does some type of bonding/contract between her, Mugen and Jin when she's trying to get them to travel with her.
Mugen would be furious, no one having managed to do something like this before and when it happens, it's Fuu and Jin. Seriously?
The tattoos would be like the visual part of the bond/contract. Something about being tamed or leashed or whatever the villain of the episode would say.
And now they have to travel together because Fuu and Jin have this bond/contract on Mugen.
Maybe it hurts if he gets too far away, or maybe he physically can't get too far.
You could play up the animalistic and bloody tendencies, I mean you don't need to change too many things because he's already pretty much there but whatever.
I just think it would be a fun idea.

suddenly, you chapter 11 is live !
rating: explicit
word count: 4.6k
chapter premise: fuu spends the night at casa naruhina. what she doesn't know is that she's really spending the night with sasuke.
alt: fuu and sasuke, no interruptions, and fully caving to their desires.
disclaimer: this chapter contains sexual content.
preview.
sasuke waits until he hears the second door shut.
fuu’s eyes are glued to the tv, mesmerized by its contents. or maybe she can’t not look away, because she, too, recognizes that they are alone. for now.
sasuke tucks a hand under her chin to catch her attention.
“—?”
no time for questions.
fuu sighs softly, lips yielding against his. he moves in to cup the other cheek, taking their kiss in a sweeter direction.
“naruto’s going to bring you blankets,” he murmurs, holding her there. “wait ten minutes, then come to me.”
“where are you going?” dumbfounded, a flustered fuu watches sasuke put space between them once more, coming to a stand. his answer sends an army of butterflies right to her tummy.
“my bedroom.”
