New Video: The Veils Share Lush and Contemplative "No Limit of Stars" @TheVeils @MoraMayAgency

Born in London, acclaimed singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and frontman of The Veils, Finn Andrews spent his teenaged years attending high school in Auckland. Largely disinterested in school, Andrews spent the bulk of his free time playing in several bands — and writing the material that would later comprise The Veils full-length debut, 2004’s The Runaway Found. When he was 16, a set of…

for the wrapped -- 10, 11, 57 & 99?? Bonus if you say something Abt how u found the song or why u were listening to it!

10 - I, Carrion (Icarion) ~ Hozier: The ONLY reason this wasn't higher ranked is it came out later in the listening year. Hozier love song about the Icarus myth?? Made in a LAB for ME!! Anyway, If I fall I only pray you don't fall away from me!!!

11 - No Limit Of Stars ~ The Veils: *Banging pots and pans together* EVERYONE GO LISTEN TO THE VEILS. THEY ARE SO GOOD AND TALENTED AND THEY RELEASED A NEW ALBUM THIS YEAR AND IT FUCKS! SEVERELY!! Anyway this song is about personhood and feeling overwhelmed by the vastness of space, existence, and the possibility of alien life. 10/10.

57 - Praying Mantis ~ Jazz Alonso: No idea how to describe this song besides, its got SOUNDS!!!! Great for cranking up while driving 20mph over the speed limit on the highway.

99 - House Of The Rising Sun ~ Lauren O'Connell: So for the DnD campaign I run for some of my best friends the surprise BBEG was running her human trafficking operation out of an Inn called The Rising Sun. I used to play this song at the start of every session and it STILL took them months to realize she was evil and NOT their friend. They were MAD AT ME!! /pos. Anyway, excellent cover of such a classic bop.

I need more breeds to get the Veil gene.

[seacrets-art]

Finally getting back to doing art again after a really hot minute! Doodle of one of my self-hatched dusthides, Guava! Still figuring out body proportions and such because I'm too used to doing just headshots lmao

Veil is such a cute gene it's giving axolotl and I'm living for it ;v; ♥

It Comes in Waves

Chapter 9: Seiche Waves

Trafalgar Law x gn!reader word count: 2.7k first|next

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The fact that a river of sea water ran through the middle of the island was a godsend to you. Luck was truly on your side with that one. You reached a hand to your necklace, heading for the riverside as the axolotl of muck approached you. You stuck your hand in it and pulled it out in an arc, covering yourself with a veil of water. It didn’t completely stop the poison from intruding, but it did dilute it. It became a mist rather than covering you in goo.

Hopefully that would at least slow down the petrification it seemed to be doing. Once it passed over, you put the veil down, already feeling your lungs start to hurt. You just hoped you could get out of this as you pulled your scarf up your face before running after the giant muck animal. The poison in the air was stinging your eyes and you pulled down a pair of goggles that you had on your head. Convenient. 

You noticed it going towards a building. Well, you supposed you needed to at least give it credit for showing you the way. Every step of the way, you could feel your lungs burn more and more. You just hoped you could hold out long enough to help these kids. As you traveled, you noticed various statues along the way. People who didn’t make it, no doubt. Your heart hurt. Who would do something so cruel? What did these people deserve to have such a terrible fate?

You noticed the creature changing course for a moment, but you beelined it towards the building, taking its temporary distraction to your advantage. You looked for a point of entry, noticing what looked like an air duct. You just hoped it wasn’t closed off yet. 

It didn’t take long to reach, but you could feel your body wanting to shut down from the work it was currently doing. You entered the air duct, passing the point of entry moments before it closed itself off. You decided to rest there, panting heavily as you sat against the wall. You needed a moment.

You pulled out a flask from your necklace, drinking the contents. It was ocean water. Whereas it would usually not help to just drink, it was special with your people. Due to the nature of your people, the water could sometimes have healing properties. Nothing major or life changing, but it could at least hold off the spread of the poison. 

You placed the flask back inside your necklace, deciding to press on. You had no idea where you were going, but you had a lot of ground to cover. No time to waste. As you crawled through the ducts, your leg caught on a vent. You moved, trying to pull yourself free. Then you heard a loud creak.

“Shit.”

Then you went crashing into the ground below.

You swore, sitting up with a groan. You held your head, trying to get the room to stop spinning.

“Y/n!?” You looked up at the sound of your name. Who the hell here would know your name? You blinked as the figure came into focus. 

“Usopp?” You looked over, seeing him stare at you in disbelief. You did the same to him. “Well what are the fucking odds?” You looked him over, grinning. “Looks like you bulked up.”

“Now is not the time for chit chat!” Usopp seemed distressed. “You’re right, you’re right,” you said, slowly standing up. He ran over, helping you stand. “What are you even doing here?” he asked. “I came to free the children. What are you doing here?” you asked. “We were answering a distress call and now, kind of doing the same thing.” Really. What were the fucking odds?

He looked over, glancing at an array of monitors. You walked over, your eyes scanning them when they came to a halt. Your stomach dropped to your feet and you leaned in to get a better look. A quick glance at the controls and you figured out how to zoom in. You looked back to the screen. There was no doubt about it. 

Trafalgar Law, Surgeon of Death, and Captain of the Heart Pirates. And he didn’t seem to be in too good of shape. You knew he could just switch himself out, why was he just sitting there? That’s when you noticed the other man. A marine? You made a face. Then you noticed the heart in his hand. What the hell? That’s when he squeezed and Law began to cry out and thrash about. Your eyes widened. What the hell was happening? Was he dying?

There was no fucking way fate would bring you together just so you could watch him die. There’s no way she was that cruel. You grimaced. Like hell you were going to let him die on your watch.

Not when you just remembered who he was. 

“Usopp, I'm going to do something and it's going to take every ounce of energy I have. Can I trust you to take me to safety when the time comes?” You turned to him and he just stared at you. “That is so vague!” You rolled your eyes. “Can I trust you or not?” He groaned, nodding. “Fine.”

You nodded, turning back to the screen. At that moment, you broke into a coughing fit. You covered your mouth with your sleeve. Afterwards, you noticed blood on it. Great. Shit, this might just kill you. But you couldn't do nothing.

Usopp looked at you. “Are you okay?” It seemed he didn’t notice the blood. Good. You nodded. “Yeah. The cold just dried my throat out,” you said with a sniffle. Which wasn't a complete lie. “So, I can definitely trust you?” You asked once more, glancing to the screen where Law was once more.

Usopp followed your gaze and something clicked in his mind. He nodded. “You can trust me. I'll keep you safe.” 

 “Thank you, Usopp.” You sat in a chair, sighing. You were going to owe him one big time. “I might not make it through this but…” You smiled at him. “I'm really glad to have met all of you. If I die, tell Luffy and Law that I'm sorry. Bepo too.”

Usopp’s eyes widened. “Hold on now. You didn't say anything about dying! Just that you were going to be tired!” He made his way over to you but you already started taking a grate off the floor and exposing a waterline. You had noticed earlier that it seemed that the waterline ran through most of the building. Since it drew its water from the ocean, that was even better for you.

You popped open the pipe, watching the water rushing to wherever it was headed to. You took a deep breath, sticking your hand in and closing your eyes. This was going to take so much out of you that you wouldn’t be surprised if you shaved some years off your life. 

You were able to, more or less, take hold of the water and direct it to where it needed to go. You had noticed a conveniently placed map on your way in and studied it quickly, so you had a rough idea of where to send the water. And you were going to send a lot.

The water went rushing to the closest pipe to the wall of the room you were looking for. The pipes groaned and burst, soon just loose as it traversed the walls, slowly turning into its own little mini tsunami. The sheer force of the water was enough to bust the wall down, quickly filling the room for just a moment.

You glanced at the monitors, noticing that it hadn’t been enough to make Vergo let go of the heart that seemed to be linked to Law. Shit. Your vision was also beginning to blur. You were reaching the end of your own rope. You closed your eyes once more, pouring every ounce of energy you had into the water, using your own sheer will.

Suddenly, you seemed to be in the room. It was hazy, like a dense fog. You noticed Vergo standing up. Anger and rage filled you. The next thing you knew, your fist was connecting with his jaw. You weren’t exactly sure how, but then you noticed the cube on the ground. You picked it up, looking over to where Law was. He looked dazed and confused. Rightfully so. This must’ve been where and you did almost accidentally drown them.

The look on his face was that of someone who had seen a ghost. You weren’t sure why. Maybe it was because you hadn’t seen him in a year. That, and you weren’t exactly sure how he could see you. You weren’t exactly even sure yourself how this was happening, just that it was. You quickly dropped the heart in his lap and picked up the hat next to him before placing it on his head. You hoped that said enough. 

The next thing you knew, you were back in the room. You pulled your hand out of the pipe and away from the water, quickly. On the way, you felt the side of the grate cut your arm pretty good along the way. You cried out, holding it. Dammit.

When you cried out, Usopp tore his eyes off the screen. He must have watched the entire scene unfold in front of him. He ran over to you. “You’re bleeding?! How did that happen?” He quickly found a rag, tying it over your wound. You could feel the world spinning faster and faster.

“Grate,” you mumbled, slumping against him. “You’re getting pale! Y/n! Don’t die on me!” He was really starting to freak out now, tears streamed his face as he picked you up. It was time he headed out anyway.

--

You finished your recollection of events, quiet. The doctor stared at you, his expression unreadable. Silence fell over the two of you and you knew he was going to scold you for risking his life for him.

“That was stupid.” Law's voice was soft despite his words. You knew what he was going to say, but his tone threw you off.

“Law, I wasn't going to let you die. Your life is more valuable than mine.” He was the captain of a crew, a doctor with an amazing ability. People relied and depended on him. You were just a rogue…pirate? That lived a solo life. No one counting on you. No one relying on you. If you died, people might be sad, but they’d move on. Your death wouldn’t really make a difference. Not in your eyes.

“As if I could live with myself if I found out you killed yourself just to save me?” His voice cracked, there was sorrow and anger in his eyes. “I can't lose someone else like that.” His voice was so soft, you barely caught it. 

Wait. Again?

You looked at him, some dots beginning to connect. You two really need to talk. “Law…”

He cleared his throat, pulling down his hat. He clearly didn’t want to keep this conversation going. “Uh, I need to talk to…uh…Brook?” He stood up, heading to the door. He was a terrible liar.

“Law.” You tried to get his attention again, slowly moving to get out of the bed.

“I'm glad you're okay, y/n. Just don't do that again. Your life is just as important.” He looked at you and, again, his expression was illegible. “And apologize to Usopp. He's also a mess.” Then he left.

You groaned, falling back into the bed. Fuck. You covered your face and let out a long sigh. What the hell was that all about? And what did he mean by again? You wanted answers, but you weren’t exactly sure if you were going to get them anytime soon - if ever.

The door opened again. You hoped, but doubted, it was Law. Alas, it was Chopper with Usopp in tow. You sat back up, looking at the two of them.

“Hey,” you said, your voice hoarse. You cleared your throat. 

“Uh, Usopp…” Fuck, where did you even start with this? Chopper moved to the table by your bed, grabbing some things out of the drawer and crushing them with a mortar and pestle. Meds, you assumed. 

“How ya feeling, buddy?” Usopp asked, sitting in the chair next to the bed. “Heard you woke up.” 

You nodded. “Yeah…” You sighed. “Listen. I'm…really sorry about what I did back there. I should've been a little more specific in what was happening.” You rubbed the back of your neck. Truth was, you didn't exactly know what to expect. Or that it would work. You really just…gambled your life away with that one.

Usopp looked at you. “Yeah…that was one of the most mortifying things ever!” You couldn't help but chortle at his sudden dramatics. You knew he was doing it to hide how he truly felt. You decided to just go with it. It was better that way. Laughter was the best medicine, after all.

“The blood bit probably didn't help either.” You chuckled. 

He shook his head. “If I hadn't known any better, I would've thought it was an overdramatic bit.” He laughed. But, he knew you just as all the Straw Hats did. You weren't one to be overdramatic about anything. If anything, you hid things. So, to be that bad in front of someone…he knew just how dire the situation had been. 

“I'm glad you're okay though. Really. We all are.” You squirmed slightly. You were never comfortable with things like this. It was easier to be on your own. You weren't used to people caring about you. It was just dawning on you how many people did. Sure, you were aware, but you just didn’t realize how much. Law’s words echoed in your head for a moment.

“And thank you, Usopp.” You smiled at him. “I wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for you. You kept your word and I appreciate it.” 

Usopp shrugged and flexed. “Oh, it was nothing. The great captain Usopp is no feat to be reckoned with!” 

You fell into a fit of laughter before falling into a coughing fit. 

“Y/n! Be careful! You're still recovering!” Chopper began to fuss over you and you nodded, settling back down. “Okay, okay. Anything you say, Doctor Chopper.”

Usopp grinned. “Well, it’s all water under the gate now.” He laughed loudly at his own joke and you laughed a little with him, careful not to get too carried away. “Anyway, get rested up. Luffy and the others will be back later with everything. We’re going to throw a little party to celebrate our success.”

You nodded, grinning. “I'll be there. Don't worry. And I'll be prepared.”

Chopper grumbled. “He better be careful you just woke up.”

You patted Chopper’s head. “I'm not worried, I have the world's best doctor looking after me!”

Upon hearing those words, Chopper began blushing and hiding his face. “Oh, you don't mean that you, big meanie!” He giggled, wiggling around. “You're flattering won't get you anywhere with me!”

You giggled softly, feeling…at peace for once. You wished it could be like this all the time. Not necessarily you being injured but…just being able to see people and hang around. The constant reminder of bad things happening and that danger was always around the corner weighed on your mind a lot. 

You don't know how people like Luffy stayed so happy all the time despite that. Or despite everything that happens to them. You admired all the Straw Hats. They all seemed to have a laid back attitude despite all their goings on. 

You settled back into the bed, thinking. In all the excitement, you forgot to talk to Law about what you had remembered but…what if he didn't remember?

“I can't lose someone like that again.” Wait…that guy with the blond hair…did…

Ah, shit. You and Law seriously needed to have a long conversation. Not one where you end up arguing and one of you storm off.

Howdy, new follower here!

Since gushing about F/Os is encouraged, here's one immediately about my wife.

LOOK AT HER! LOOK AT MY DARLING, THE ABSOLUTE LOVE OF MY LIFE, ANNE SAVISA BOONCHUY FROM AMPHIBIA (POST-EPILOGUE TIMESKIP ONLY) (<==Important distinction to make, trust me)

HERO OF WARTWOOD! NEXT IN LINE TO BECOME A GODDESS! SO DEVOTED TO ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES OF HER EARLY LIFE THAT SHE TOOK IT IN STRIDE AND IT BECAME HER JOB, STUDYING AND CARING FOR AMPHIBIANS OF ALL SHAPES AND SIZES, FROM FROGS AND TOADS TO NEWTS, OLMS AND AXOLOTLS!

WHEN THE SHOW FIRST AIRED, SHE STARTED OFF AS SELF-CENTERED, EASY TO MANIPULATE AND IRRESPONSIBLE, BUT SHE LEARNED LESSONS, GREW TO BE A BETTER PERSON AND HELPED TO SAVE TWO WORLDS FROM A MAD TYRANT AND AN ANCIENT EVIL HIVEMIND!

AND I SAW IT ALL! EVERY HARDSHIP SHE FACED, INJURY SHE SUSTAINED, BOUT OF TRAUMA SHE ENDURED AND WORKED PAST! Speaking real quick as a Demiromantic Asexual, IT ALL MADE ME ABSOLUTELY ADORE HER!

I legitimately don't think I'll ever love anyone as much as I love Anne. Our connection is as deep and genuine as it can get in my eyes. Her name flows so naturally when I say it out loud, and thinking about her in any capacity just makes me so giddy. Plus, while I'm usually not into cosmology and zodiac stuff, she's been confirmed to be a Gemini and I'm a Libra, and every source I can find states Geminis and Libras work super well together.

To be quite frank, I think we're legitimately soulmates, separated only by the veil between fiction and reality, but that's okay.

The rest of the Amphibia fandom may not be too keen on Selfshipping as a whole (thanks, Darrel, ya lousy fuck ┗|｀O′|┛), but I won't let that stop my eternal love and devotion.

I love you, Anne, my Shining Blue Star! 🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙🧡💙

Hello and welcome!! 🩷

I am obsessed with this energy, I can feel how passionate you are about her and that is so freaking cool and heart-warming!! She sounds really cool too! It's so awesome you got to see her grow and change as a person and fall for her in that time too that's so sweet! I'm sure she would appreciate you being there for her through all those ups and downs!

I can feel your love for her radiating off of your text and the fact you searched up your zodiac/star signs to see your compatibility is so sweet !! (and I've done that myself a few times so I feel you 110%) I just know she'd be doing the exact same thing and be so giddy about it because she loves you just as much!!

It sucks when a creator or team member on a show does something creepy self-insert wise and gives a negative reputation to the community but it absolutely should not stop the rest of us!! Keep on loving your soul mate and continue to gush and be enamoured with her because she adores you and won't let anyone stop her from doing so either!! 🩷🩷🩷

The Veils "Axolotl" in Twin Peaks 2017

Традиционная музыкальная сцена в финале 15-го эпизода не менее энигматична, чем сериал. Мне нравится фанатская теория о том, что здесь в лице Руби мы видим продолжение истории Леди-с-Поленом, ранее покинувшей этот мир. Короткая, но яркая роль Шарлин Йи - комедиантки, озвучившей одну из героинь мультсериала “Вселенная Стивена”, которую, между прочим, тоже зовут Ruby. Спокойной ночи.

[musekicker]

Because in the Rayman mood, ended up making up some more ocs. Including a new fan species.

Newton: a red gecko wild magic user teensy. Very nervous fellow most of the time. Has lost his tail once (as geckos may do) in a Halloween haunted house thing. And despite being as anxious as he is, likes to write horror stories.

Alvin: A griffin type creature. Black furred with a white owls face.

He teaches the kids of the glade various things like history, art, how to read and write, math, etc. Gentle and patient and always encouraging. Unless anyone tries to hurt the students. Then he will attack with sharp teeth and claws.

When not teaching, loves collecting miniatures. His home has all sorts of dioramas. 

Hurtle: axolotl thing, related to the same species as Globox. They come in a lot of different colors and get really big height wise. Though are slow to grow. His species also all have a trait of some type that's unusual or more then other beings around them. Like for Hurtle his is counting things instantly.

In personality Hurtle is mellow, and likes to do things at his own pace. Has a interest in cooking.

He has a pocket space in the backpack they carry. He is a pale green, his head fronds a darker green as are his eyes. Wears a blue backpack with a Lilly pad patch on it.

Best friends with Gabe and Squar. 

Her lady of rot and silence: a wild magic user of mix of a veiled stinkhorn mushroom and a inky cap mushroom. Called lady Rot for short. A pale thingamajig with inky black fingers and pools of eyes on pale white skin, hair, and a veil as part of her face. She tends to dress in long dresses (likes to keep to a black, white, or red color scheme with clothes.)

The leader of a group of various creatures that tend to thrive in the dark or under ground. Deidre has had to go to her for information about various creatures she's had to fight before. Not that Deidre likes to because she doesn't trust Lady Rot. As well she shouldn't because Lady Rot is always up to something.
