#NOT VERY ORIGINAL...SORRY IF THIS ISNT WHAT U WANTED im not much of a modern au fan..scratches ass

[ge]

did biga ever say what rotmhs characters would be like/work as in modern au or am i tweaking … if not what are ur hcs :3

ummm im not sure..he mightve but i dont remember anything like that..

ive never thought about it so im coming up w these on the spot but hmmm i know for sure the tangs would be some sort of pharmaceutical manufacturing company but still pretty patriarchal in their hierarchy so tang soso leaves to go pursue her dreams of becoming a doctor

jo gul would still work for his merchant company...like canon he probably runs off to the modern day mount hua equivalent to keep the tang family from breathing down his neck

(the tang family wouldnt be a martial arts sect like in canon so idk why theyd be so incessant w jo gul and his family business.. corporate drama idk)

mount hua...hm... hmmmm.... maybe mount hua would still be a functioning martial arts sect that was built many many hundreds of years ago and are highly picky w the students they take on bc they want to keep things as traditional to their values and historically accurate as possible.. chung myung would still be an orphan in this au but was still adopted into mt hua and raised within it and i cant imagine chung mun and chung jin + original gen mt hua dying so theyre here too... chung bros are all disciples of modern mount hua and chung myung has his brothers (smile... idk if theyd be elders in this au or younger so ehm thats up to u but im fond of old men chung bros w the kids as their disciples

yu iseol would also be a disciple of mount hua since her father was also a disciple from an older generation..shes chung myungs first disciple and theyre like grandpa and granddaughter.. they have a very familial relationship (either this is yu iseol granddaughter au-ish as in shes related to chung myung somehow or chung myung also taught her father so he has a familial bond w them both for that reason)

baek cheon and his family would own a way more modern martial arts school but bc of similar situations he has w his family and brother in canon, he runs off to join mount hua.. the zhongnan sect would have a one sided beef w mount hua, as in mount hua doesnt know zhongnan exists and it pisses them off.. if anything baek cheon joining mt hua in this au is just to flex on his family since getting accepted into it is like a one and five hundred chance

yoon jong still an orphan but he actually gets adopted by hyun sang in this au so thats how he ends up in mount hua

while still traditional and serious as a martial arts sect, mount hua is also a bit more lax so the kids/disciples can leave the mountain to pursue more worldly passions if they wanted... the ogum choose to go to school/college in this au ofc, idk if tang soso would so much as join mount hua rather than meet the disciples at school and become friends w them there.. shes going to get her doctorate even if it kills her...

I ALMOST FORGOT HYE YEON he was raised in his familys monastery and doesnt go to school but his monastery is pretty close to the disciples campus so thats how he meets and makes friends w them..

baek'ah is here too. hm. shes a wild animal but chung myung kept feeding her so she got attached to him..she hates everyone else though </3

Mayoi in PriPara Outfits Part 1

this is a suuuuuper long post cuz i did 2 drawings for about 20 outfits????? so here's the best ones so u dont miss anything by not actually going thru them all o7

but woooo !!! basically i've been on a long journey rewatching pripara very slowly so it's kinda seeping into my brain so i wanted to mess around with what outfits mayoi would go for if he went 2 pripara !! if u want a teal eyed version that also isnt split into parts, heres my pixiv post

last few things to say b4 i start, hello 3 pripara fans on my account, no boypara outfits cuz i didnt grow up with that (the last op i remember is the 6th one and i dont think im anywhere near that yet in my rewatch), honestly i have no clue if there's even proper boypara outfits??? i just know it exists idk anything about it, and if u see placeholders thats cuz i wanna keep the 3 image layout, thats the only reason why lol. and outfit descriptions will go below the art of the outfit. ok time 2 start !!!!!!

Petit Devi from Holic Trick Classic !! this was the first one I did back on.... Janurary 2nd lol. I have yet to see Mayoi in a bright pink but u know what, my executive decision says he deserves it. hi 3 pripara fans on my account again, i should also say most of these (like this one) will be from the arcade stuff cuz i just picked stuff i liked from the wiki's coord list

Sexy Girl from Holic Trick cuz Mayoi's the sexiest girl i know !! from now on all the coords will be from Holic Trick (an in-show brand) cuz 2bh w y'all i mostly just browsed Holic Trick for this whole series of drawings cuz im not going thru all those dam coords. although i've done 2 short skirts so far i do think mayoi'd like longer skirts more, but pripara likes short skirts more so so be it o7

Gothic Check !! the grey shirt and black jacket is kinda giving fs2 4star vibes so this would be the fs2 4star if enstars were cool (wore pripara outfits)

Modern Coffee Maid !! I was thinking of maybe changing the color but i liked the way the orange contrasts with the purple making it look kinda halloweeny :] I also have a personal bias towards brown i luv that color !! but ya if i had 2 say, he'd probably be a 3star if this were a set, kinda vaguely fits him but not enough to be under the spotlight imo

Classic Trump !! Sophy actually wears this in the show and i think it's so cute i wonder how the other alka members would style the vest in their own way (im 2 lazy 2 do that myself yawwnnn) in fact mayoi himself would probably prefer longer sleeves but u kno, stayed tru 2 the original n stuff, anyway say hello to bright pink again mayochan

Sparkling Jellyfish Sophy !! hi kanata hi fish wife hi nata hello nata hi nata whats up nata i love u nata

Nin'Nin Among the Water from Baby Monster !! when i saw this outfit i was chained to my tablet the demons were holding me hostage i had to make the ninja association wear it or i'd suffer a public execution

My Design Holic Trick !! back to holic trick for the rest again :] this is the one i posted on its own hehehehe it's still the one i put THE most effort into (which is why it's the only one i bothered to sign, still dont repost the rest tho please and thank u im just lazy) cuz man its a vibe its so good its one of my favs still i love stupid shorts and the puffy sleeves with the cropped vest and black and purple and the heart and bows and keys which are kinda all reasons i also like mayoi (heart in mayois vibe comes from his big heart muah) bless u mayoi i luv u

Night Navy !! mayoi loves to kill artists in cold blood with random intricate patterns (or maybe thats just an enstars thing in general) so i knew i had to give him this dress. gave him an undershirt cuz what if he gets cold :[

And that's it for this post !! I've now reached the image limit, so see ya in the next post !! (sorry foosybit followers for triple posting i didnt realize i drew so much)

[dread-and-despair-dyke]

no what you say about Chappell Roan is so true but I didn't dare to say it bc I am bi and she says she is a lesbian, I dont want to talk over a lesbians experience and I didnt get that much into the entire topic. But like.. I am bi and even I don't talk as much about men as she does. I also dont enjoy her music bc I just want to listen to music about women loving other women and she mainly talks about how she doesnt like men instead. Its a heavy focus on men in her songs, which I just dont find enjoyable. I had a weird phase in my early 20s where I forced myself to be very feminine and got very skinny and watched drag race and put a lot of makeup on to get male approval. Then I realized what bullshit that was and also decided to continue to exclusively date women. And I dont know her so this feels a bit rude to say but like. From what she says and talks about it just sounds similar to what I did? A bi woman trying to appeal to men, realizing it sucks and deciding to not engage with them sexually/romantically as a conclusion. But shes not drawing the conclusion that it sucks for most bi/straight women because men suck. And that it's okay to be bi and just focus on women (which she isnt even doing! she is talking about men so much). Instead she goes down the "identity" route of calling herself a lesbian so she doesnt have to engage critically with herself and her sexuality. Like so many bi women do. I grew up listening to lesbian artists like Tegan and Sara and Tracy Chapman and they resonated with me a lot. Chappell Roan would have maybe resonated with me when I had my weird femininity phase? But even then, I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it bc I know men suck, I dont need to listen to songs about it in my free time. Also don't want to listen to music about her having sex with gross men she hated like?? I also heavily dislike how much she is appealing to gay culture because its just gay male culture of drag and extreme femininity and long fingernails and all that. Not my jam at all but maybe thats subjective. I dont find overly feminine women revolutionary or interesting, even if its with a "gay spin". Sorry for rambling, I have kept this in for too long lol

i was thinking too abt this at the end, abt overly feminine women even with a 'gay spin'. its somth abt how much male-attracted women love gay men and gay male culture (ik drag is just a caricature of women and therefore doesnt exactly originate entirely from gay men but like), for multiple reasons... idk i cant piece it together rn my mind is occupiedd

also like if u have an opinion. dont worry about it too much, u can voice it, i dont think anyone wld have said to u 'u cant say that bcs ur bi'.. or if they did then uhhh dont listen to em nonnie bcs its all fine 👍

i think its probable that many bi and les artist are normal, but they dont get popular like this because they arent pandering to the hyperfeminine male attracted priorities of modern society. idek what im saying here nvm

b m u y ! letter ask game

B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.

i fully blame seize and gem for getting me on the shadowidomauk train, regardless of the teif personality. seize especially has me in a chokehold re: their lucien and essek combo in one of their fics, which i have not read nor do i even know if its been posted but they keep sending me snippets like MOCHI YOU WILL LOVE THIS IT HAS ALL* YOUR KINKS and by dog they're right (*it is not actually "all" this is impossible as i have Too Many Kinks but)

also gem's essek-owns-a-boujie-coffee-shop au that has shadowidomauk as end game is cute as shit im sorry gem that i haven't had the spoons to edit more (its so good aaa)

M - Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.

i answered M with "ashton" over here in this post the other day but another character i would want to be friends withhhhhhhh hmmm lets say asterion. no i have not played the game but from the lore i have absorbed via cherry he is very much the kind of gay i would have fun having catty gossip with while also being the sort of rock for him to lean on and like..... not therapy him i hate being peoples therapist but the immovable object he can bounce trauma off and figure out How 2 People again. i think he would appreciate my bluntness and the way i set clear, explicit boundaries but am otherwise unflappable, and i would certainly appreciate his humour, and we can bond!! over the whole being ace as a result of trauma!! :D

U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites.

answered U over here with ashton, kylo, and bucky over here but lets do it again!!

lets kick it off by going Old School with the Original Husbando ^TM: vash the stampede. you have no idea how jazzed i am about the new trigun anime (no i have not watched it i merely enjoy the smut on twitter) because vash is like, my og blorbo. did i have blorbos before? yes, kind of, but my Wants in a man* (*fictional character) had not yet developed so they were but proto-blorbos. vash tho... he has it all: tall pretty boy happy go lucky twink who is secretly Full Of Trauma but shoves it down super hard by being just so upbeat and goofy, and just really wants..... love and peace lmao. a lot of my blorbos historically have similar vibes in the "puts on an act to cover deep severe trauma" way lmao

next up: more anime i guess, but modern: i honestly super fucking love all might???? like SO MUCH he is such an interesting character and i desperately want to read fic of him grappling with his severe health issues alongside his image as a hero AND his mentoring of midoriya (preferably with that guud guud smut, but i have no clue who i'd ship him with, i only got two seasons in lmao). unfortunately, everything i like about him isnt even in cannon its just stuff that i, a cripple, can extrapolate from the worldbuilding and lil snippets we get of him but MAN i am o b s e s s e d

third!!! more comics: loki, specifically the agents of asgard loki. i am 100000% planning to cosplay that loki (i have the hair after all) and i am very excited because he is just so very Gender. it was the first time i saw a genderfluid character in mainstream media and his "i AM gender queer, i IDENTIFY as a bitch" like is something i quote constantly to describe my gender. also hes just such a dick who is obviously trying to do better and unlearn bad habits and god, i dont remember specifically what its about but he has a big fight with his earthside contact roommate buddy helper person over something and then comes crawling back and does this big speech where he talks about how he knows hes a fuck up but he's trying and he values her friendship so much even if he's been shit about showing it and it is chefs kiss

Y - What are your secondhand fandoms (i.e., fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)?

dragon age. just... i know so much vague dragon age lore from listening to cherry talk about it because it is their BIG love for video games (pending bg3..... not sure if itll overtake da but theyre very sad they cannot play it again til monday lmao). i absolutely instigated a convo with someone on okc asking if xyz thing was a da reference and i was rIGHT it secured me a date lmao

similarly, mass effect, batfam stuff, haunted mansion, nbc hannibal (dont ask me why its a fandom in law still i cannot explain), s8 infinity (???? i only know matcha blossom), the final fantasy mmo, taz......

you can ask me more of these letter questions!! i have much time to spare!! maybe!!!

Ever High School Principal Should Say This

o boi

so the preamble is good, teachin the young is p much the best thing i could think of.

change 1 kinda sounds dumb right off the bat honestly; also if youre gonna so arbitrarily diss integral parts of people then why not also ignore sex or gender identity? also he mentions red people, native americans, but doesnt say north america in his “i dont care about your origins” part and also oceania isnt pictured which is mostly just weird? its not a problem i have i just think its a random choice.

i hate his part on individual identity because character, scholarship, and humanity are effected by ones race, sex, gender identity, sexual identity, so on and so forth. your character is influenced by your past, what you were taught, and different people are simply taught different things and learn different things through experience. scholarship is a dumb one as ive never seen it used in that context and apparently its not even correct?

ive looked around and everyone supports this collection of definitions soooo??? finally the humanity one is kindve just hypocritical; humans are unique due to their sentience and sentience creates these concepts such as race and gender and sure it hasnt done us very well but its still part of who we are. the national identity part is just silly. i dont really have to explain that, its just such a dumb patriotic thing to say that isnt the case for certain students.

“if you wish to be yourself sorry, you have to go to another school because we believe in different opinions than you.”

“or whatever else may become In Vogue in our society” what??? race, ethnicity, gender, sex, these arent new topics. these have ALWAYS been issues, esp with the youth. just cause you dont wanna look them in the face cause youre a coward doesnt mean they arent real. also how do these clubs cultivate narcissism? how is it narcissistic to learn other perspectives? even if you yourself are queer, goin to a gender club or a gender theories course is extremely important to understandin how others think because even we dont all feel the same way about gender and sexuality.

the purpose of education is a tad bit of a tricky topic so makin such a Line In The Sand definition for it kind ignores the beliefs of students and teachers alike.

he again calls ethnicity, race, and sexual identity a like narcissistic topic which again boggles the fuckin mind. imagine a cishet white guy goes into these classes or clubs, is he narcissistic? is it bad to go to an asian culture club? an african american history class? a lecture on gender theory??? like come on dude what the fuck are you even talkin bout at this point

change 2 is honestly smart but for the rong reasons. we dont feel united cause of a langauge you absolute mongoloid, not every american speaks english. thats just the facts. im sorry you refuse to see it. but learnin english is important to life in modern america so makin sure people are good at speakin it is doin your job as an educator for sure.  

“[on bein taught in a native langauge] this is not the right school for you” who asks for that? a deaf person doesnt walk up into a public high school and go “yo can yall do sign for me?” we both have schools for deaf people and personal interpreters ... so ... i dont really get this point.

change 3 is redundant, this is how schools already work.

change 4 is, again, redundant.

change 5 is ... what? the hells a self-esteem program? i want to a VERY liberal magnet high school and i have no idea what hes talkin bout. i kinda want them though, itd help nervous kids goin thru puberty feel better about the horrors of the adult world. i sure fuckin needed one i guess.

change 6 is, finally, the last. oh fuck its redundant AGAIN. AND HOW ARE RACISM, SEXISM, ISLAMOPHOBIA, HOMOPHOBIA, GLOBAL WARMING, TOBACCO, AND GENDER IDENTITY POLITICAL ISSUES??? tobacco is a HEALTH issue. gender identity is a HEALTH issue. global warmin is an ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. racism, sexism, islamophobia, and homophobia are social issues which sure id call political but how is it bad to teach about this??? you just said you didnt want propaganda then you immediately fill kids heads with pro-conservative propaganda??? that kinda sounds like a politically biased teachin system. 

SEXUAL RELATIONS ARE A HEALTH ISSUE OH MY FUCKING GODS!?!?!?!?

No one. Fucking No One wants to be a victim. We are not taught to be victims. We do not victimize ourselves. thats it. thats all there is. next topic please im goin to have a stroke.

the pledge of allegiance is a highly political topic and the textbook definition of propaganda you hypocritical dipshit.

man i wish i was a dane.

UNLOCK by DAY6

tl;dr, I don’t remember where I was when this first came out because I was on a break from kpop social media but, however, I do remember where I was when I first listened to I Just (the only song to ever exist), as it was an extremely transformative experience for me. This is such a well-rounded, clear, diverse album that keeps Day6′s usual style while adding extra juicy elements for the more hard-rock inspired Japanese market. 

Vara’s rating: ✭✭✭✭✭ 

without further ado here’s why I love ever single song on this album, written like ive been imprisoned inside stan twitter for 5 years and can’t get out unless i review this album

Live Your Life: day6 japanese songs hit differently they really do. this one is an a1 prime rib example. the rolling drum (?) woosh sound right before the chorus is so sos os nice and all of the parts of this song are different feeling but still fit together completely seamlessly as expected. LISTEN, HOW THEY HAVE A GUITAR SOLO? WITH THE WOAHHHs at EVERY chorus. jae’s guitar is the backbone of this album and our society as you will read about further on if you ever get to my review of i just…….. and this song is NO different. also the lyrics are so pure. thank u kings of confidence. i gotta also talk about the outro to this song its so fucking beautiful. all the voices singing together is such a chef kiss mwah

Breaking Down: ive seen a lot of ppl (more than i expected?) cite this song as their fave day6 song and i mean valid. its day6’s harder rock side.. its reminds me a lot of how can i say and its very very good if thats your thing. also everytime mr k does the IM BREAKING DOWWN live its . very lovely thank you. its so so angsty i can feel the angst for miles with this one. when jae says “hearts never break the same” mkmfdnjgajk. yeah. this is one of the songs where u think its over but it ISNT!!!!!!! the guitar muting in the bridge fake outro whatever is so delicious i am a sucker for a good guitar muting rhythm technique can someone pls tell me what thats called im illiterate anyways it STARTS UP AGAIN the hecking guitar solo….. ladies and gentlemen…..

Stop the Rain: instrumental wise, this is a really really fun song… the scale up and down or whatever it is with synth + guitar in the verses and at the end of the chorus… very spicy indeed. i honestly think wonpil is the star of the show in this one bc its a really not aggressive but beat heavy?? song and wonpils softer voice really contrasts it nicely i think. i also love love LOVe the second verse with the minimal instrumental (of course i do) and then it goes into guitar solo mode.. i feel liek this album more than any other day6 album goes the hardest with the guitar solos thank you jae. also this song has wooaahs. guitar solo ✅, instrumental space ✅, woaaaahs ✅ but theres no guitar muting we’re almost there..

Say Hello: this song makes me smile. the punchy guitars, bubbly drums, wait actually the first time wonpil says “my girl” i teared up a little ouch…….. :((((((((((((((( so cute…. the bright lil woo ooooh ooohs in the chorus SO cute… its such a dreamy song and the lyrics are so nostalgic feeling its such a sweet song in general its abt like letting go but finding peace with it and wishing the other person well and its a really beautiful meaning. omg its like the opposite to hi hello njsdfdnkj theory?????

Everybody Rock: we are now in the ROCK zone everybody now . now COME ON keep it going now !!!!!!! 1 2 3 go!!!!! i absolutely adore the way the guitars fade out in the verses when the vocal lines start and its just a lil bass a lil drum. if theres one thing i love more than guitar muting its silence in music.. it really really makes songs great when theres some space left over i truly believe that. anyways this song has both thank u kings. jae’s prechorus with differnet members joining in is so nice as it gradually builds up more and more. extra important detail all the lives i can find of this they look like theyre having so much fun. also dowoon….. i truly believe i can be a rockstar bc of him. im in tears. the ending just lets it all sink in the extra 8 bars or whatever of extra instrumental very very nice addition thank you

I Just: i am truly sorry in advance for this im not gonna stop talking. musically,, this song is pretty simple (except for the guitar in the chorus, i’ll get there) but tonally, vibe-wise, on the feel good scale, this song is a 35 million absolutely fucking fantastic song. i love this song perhaps a little too much. i would like to speak briefly on jae’s guitar fill. if i could name my firstborn child after a sound byte it would be that one and you all know it very well. if i ever meet jae im gonna personally thank him for this and ask if i can get his guitar’s autograph. the fact the guitar gets louder in the last chorus with the vocals overtop of it too yum.. this song makes me miss a lover i nevr had or something but also feel like im falling in love and rolling down a grassy hill and staring into a sunset at the same time its like every single possible positive emotion for me. THE HEYYYY AHHHS . make me so inexplicably happy i love them with all my heart. ALSO you know how i said i love silence this song has it too!!!!!!!! with the faded guitar right before the last instrumental break !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also again not to be a young k stan but u know i need to plug the 18125 i just nagoya young k fancam its in my genetics i will not apologize. he looks so happy i love . i listen to this song on a daily basis and you cannot stop me from doing so. if i get cloned and u have to figure out which charlie is the real one see which ones heartbeat starts getting faster by hearing the guitar riff then youll know.

Nobody Knows: the beginning of this song is the true modern mona lisa. i could listen to the guitar and drum before any vocals hit forever i am not gonna lie. this really reminds me of old 5sos in a way and i really like it.. gives me a lot of nostalgia from being a 14 year old (no i’m not a 5sos stan but listen to their new album it’s really good). absolutely very fun but probably also really sad if the lyric “please i dont wanna cry” says anything … yep ok. i forgot how much i love the bridge of the song listening to it now its really different to the rest of it its so so nice. very very good. i dont listen to this one as much as some from the album but i still love it a lot,, theres something about it thats a little haunting in a good way its like that buzzfeed unsolved episode where the ghost named apple tater visits them.

Falling: this song gets you because you think its gonna be a full soft ballad but it still has a rock heavy influence! this album is a LOT of more hard or classic sounding rock and i really like the direction they took it in! can i please talk about the bass riff RIGHT before the end of the verse its those little extra bits that are added in that make a song so much better and thats prime example. I’m not the biggest fan of the chorus of this song for some reason i feel like theres a little bit of something missing but the haunting synth that kicks in and gets more prominent all the way through the song is very very nice and adds to the whole acoustic rock (somehow??? they have the Range) vibe.

If ~また逢えたら～: this song was their debut japanese song and she has a very special place in my heart. it reminds me of a very specific time in my life. also its a fun one bc i always try to guess whether its the instrumental or the original version when it comes on shuffle (i have both saved lol). i love love LOVe the guitar at the between vocal lines in the chorus its so fucking juicy… you know what else we have is rapper k which as u know i go crazy over.. the instrumental version is young ks rap karaoke version. very very good. i think this passage from my old review of this (if you know, you know) sums it up ladies: and i honestly think youngks rap part just brings the song back to day6′s style!! like i dont think many other bands would have brought it down to that u know??? and i love it…. the instrumental in this is also so crunch !! its so aggressive but like the type of aggressive that snowstorms are on a weekday… bc they basically just showed up without warning, rendered us immobile,, but all in all we’re PUMPED that it happened.

Baby, it’s okay: this song is not my favourite song of day6’s, i think it’s lacking in some oomph for my ears, HOWEVER !! and this is a big however I really love the bridge and the lyrics and that makes up for it. also the “i want you to be happy” and “ill always be here for you” is so adorable truly.

anyways we all know this day6 has no bad songs, unlock is no exception.
