27th May 2023 By Will Richards

Louis Tomlinson opened his North American tour in Connecticut last night (May 26) – watch him cover Arctic Monkeys classic ‘505’ below.

The former One Direction singer will head around the United States and Canada for the next month in support of his second solo album ‘Faith In The Future’.

At the first gig, he played songs from across his solo career as well as the cover of the ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’ track.

Watch Tomlinson’s Arctic Monkeys cover from the Uncasville show below.

Following his North American trek, Tomlinson will head out on a European and UK tour next August. That run of dates includes a concert at The O2 in London on November 17, 2023. Find any remaining tickets here.

In a four star review of ‘Faith In The Future’, NME wrote: “If ‘Walls’ found Tomlinson still figuring out what this part of his artistic journey should be, ‘Faith In The Future’ feels much more assured.

“It doesn’t reinvent the wheel of modern guitar music, but is a solid step forward as the musician continues what he’s acknowledged will be “an ever-evolving process”. Album two shows, though, that he’s very much heading the right way.”

Meanwhile, Tomlinson has opened up about his feeling towards the success of his former 1D bandmate Harry Styles. “I’d be lying if I said it didn’t bother me at first,” he said.

However, the singer said that he is now happy for Styles. “I look on Harry like a brother, man,” he explained. “I have a lot of pride for what he’s doing.”

It's done, people.

"I saw you come to this world, pesky knight. I RAISED you. I am your true father, unlike that 'Aeon' weakling.

You belong to me, Meta Knight."

On another note, here are some cut out sketches under cut (see what I did there??)

Been watching the old Kirby anime, Right back at ya, and I must talk about the big bad and the amazing word play it has.

No idea if anyone else has ever mentioned this or noticed but again I must rant!

Like, the main big bad is a being called NME, which when said aloud sounds like Enemy. And this NME runs a monster making business called NightMare Enterprises, which, when abbreviated, is called NME, which I think is beautiful.

World Building: Crux Demonbeast Sanctuary

The Crux Factory is located on a small planet within the eastern parent of the Southern Region of space. The smallest planet of a multiple gas giant solar system, Crux is covered in a dense yellow atmosphere and covered in methane oceans. The only habitable spots on Crux being a number of small climatized domes dotting the surface on the few patches of land. From space and without proper equipment, it would simply look like a completely uninhabitable world.

However, during the height of the war, it was an Nightmare Enterprises claimed planet that housed multiple factories, utilizing the nitrogen and ammonium compounds from the atmosphere and methane from the oceans to make various explosives, fuel, ammo and other weapons and ammunition for the war. It was also the site of two laboratories, which created the sasuke demonbeasts to use in order to staff the factory with free labour.

Crux was managed by manager and scientist Dr Ayelech Sanus, who was in the process of training her son Majang Sanus to be her successor.

Crux met its end after the escape of one of the sasuke workers, who managed to get off the planet and went to the GSA, offering information in return for the freedom of his people and the destruction of the factories. Determined to change the tide of the war by removing NME’s main access to ammunition and fuel (after all, your enemies can’t fly ships and can’t shoot at you nearly as much if they have a sudden shortage of fuel or bullets) the GSA agreed and launched a nuclear attack on Crux, deteriorating within the interiors of the domes and destroying the factories and structures within.

Reports say there was no NME survivors that did not catch wind evacuate beforehand. However what most didn’t know, and would never learn was that there was on survivor, Majang.

Majang spent a lot of time trapped within the fallout bunkers his mother had locked him into. The radiation from the attack changed him overtime, giving him his unusual appearance.

Eventually he did manage to get out, and emerged into a destroyed world. The mountain that they had been mining had collapsed in the blast, burying several of the buildings, including the one he was in. It took a lot of digging and rigging old drilling equipment but little by little he made his way to other buildings, including the communications center. After several attempts to restore some kind of power to the equipment he was able to turn on the logs and was greeted with the records stating he was dead and Crux had been destroyed.

He spent a couple days pondering what to do with himself, obviously going back to NME and declaring he was in fact not dead was an option. He explored more of the ruins and built more tunnels to other buildings, eventually reaching Alpha Containment. It dawned on him that Ayelech had never let him in here before, and that’s one thing about being dead on paper he would find time and time again, you can do whatever you want. And he went inside and explored the various containment chambers, and to his surprise he found another survivor. Only, the survivor wasn’t a person, but a massive, massive demonbeast.

A massive building sized chained creature, eyes blinded. Demonbeasts did not need to eat, they did not need sleep, they would not die without either. This creature, a creature known as a riftwrath, a powerful demonbeast of the wrath type demonbeast line, had been left to rot.

Majang started to speak with the monster, or rather it would speak by taking control of him to use his body to make words. Which, albeit very unsettling at first, was something Majang got used to. The two struck a very unlikely bond, the creature was named Rodger by Majang, and Rodger shared his stories of the cruelty and suffering he had endured at the hands of NME. Now Majang has been raised by NME his entire life, he was born into the company, his mother taught him everything he knew and that included the belief that NME was doing the right thing and that demonbeasts were simply just tools to be used.

But Rodger frankly shattered that view.

Majang, after a couple more weeks of thinking, finally got the idea of what he wanted to do with his newfound freedom. He wouldn’t be going back to NME, he’d rebuild this place. But instead of a factory, it was going to be a sanctuary. Rodger agreed to be his right hand monster in the operation, and with Majang’s permission used Majang’s body to see the world to open up rifts to other planets so Majang could leave.

Over the next several years Majang and Rodger fixed up Crux, Majang rebuilt as much as he could and got much of the equipment back online. He turned it into a true demonbeast sanctuary for him to care for monsters, treat them of injury sustained from war and lab testing, and humanly study them to better understand them. As the war raged on he dodged both NME and the star warriors, capturing demonbeasts to take back to the sanctuary to spare them from the war and experimentation or death at the hands of the rebel forces.

The location of the planet is still kept secret and Majang has lived there as the only non demonbeast for a long time now, his ability to interact with people having greatly diminished. He’d still be kind to others if he met them, and would even offer them to stay at Crux if they needed a place to run and hide, providing they wouldn’t hurt his monsters.

He’s content to continue doing this for the rest of his life, expanding and bettering his sanctuary, and furthering his understanding of the monsters who call it home.

I had a huge crush on him and I still do XD

[doggirling]

been going kind of ham crazy on all the kirby warrior cat au designs. characters in order are: kirby (obviously), garlude, escargoon, nme salesman, tiff, and tuff 🐈🐈‍⬛

+ alt coloring for peachkit which i also rlly like. it's a more realistic fur color (and what i think would be kirby's fur color if he was a real ass kitten) but we clearly don't care too much about fur color realism here... (COUGH MOSSSHADE AND MEADOWSTAR COUGH COUGH)
