F/O Masterlist

11 Songs I Liked in No Particular Order (2023)

Dang. Humans are so good at making music. Here some tracks I enjoyed this year with some thoughts - some long, some short - on why I liked them. All song titles are linked to a YouTube video if you want to give them a listen.

Caroline Polachek - Welcome to My Island

Bouncing between the staccato verse and the swelling anthemic chorus, Polachek gives it her all for yearning. And, let me tell you, I am a yearning romantic. Lacan and myth blends into the sensual. Is she Calypso? Circe? Ariadne? All we know is that she wants, in all the meanings of that word, reveling in it.

Screaming Females - Beyond the Void

Rest in peace, Screaming Females. A fantastic, consistent rock band ending their run on a fantastic album. This song has an incredible key change into the chorus with Paternoster's trademark vibrato crooning a danceable rock waltz. Wherever this trio ends up next, I wish them all the best.

Björk ft. Rosalía - Oral

Damn if this is what's in Björk's vault, imagine what else she has. Recorded in the interim between Homogenic and Vespertine, it recalls her earlier pop-forward output. No one years quite like Björk, and she is going through it in this song. Imagining the object of her limerence in her mind, desperately wanting to show physical affection, but unsure if it's right. *chef's kiss* The addition of Rosalia's complimentary voice turns into a dialogue between two voices of the narrator's mind. And all the proceeds are going to stopping factory farm fishing!

ANOHNI and the Johnsons - Sliver of Ice

As someone with depression, I think about death a lot. Anohni recalls a conversation with Lou Reed as he was dying about how a caretaker placing a sliver of ice on his tongue was a moment of clarifying, sweet beauty. Here that narrative once becomes a sad but accepting paen of someone's final moments. All the gorgeous kindness of life focused on a melting ice chip.

Sufjan Stevens - Goodbye Evergreen

Speaking of death. Sufjan's latest album is dedicated to his late partner opens up with an incredible outpouring of everything in his heart. All of Sufjan's artistic forte comes through on this opening track. He finds anger, strength, sorrow, solace, and joy all at once and lays it bare here in noisy, melodious wail.

Yves Tumor - God is a Circle

This rocks AND rolls. Industrial, grungy, post-punk art rock balm for my ears.

Grrrl Gang - Spunky!

Indonesia is doing/has done Britpop better than any. Energetic, fuzzy, vibrating hooks dance all over this song.

Atarashii Gakko! - Tokyo Calling

Thumping bass and volcanic singing with anger at the current state of society. This is a desperate time, the group notes, of malaise, of being trapped and crushed by the systems built so long ago. But yet there is hope in the future, one that starts now as they declare, shouting and grabbing at their destiny: We are marching!

Romy & Fred again... - Strong

An honest-to-god trance bop in 2023 on a banger of a trance/house album. Like much of her work, Romy adds tenderhearted moments into the texture of the song. Small, quiet moments of two lovers punctuate the song between the thumping melodies, like the knowing glance or the smile.

DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ - Honey

Speaking of throwbacks: pseudonymous producer Sabrina output has been staggering. Their album is like a house party, ebbing and flowing through the night. This track stands at the climax as the emblem of their plunderphonics work. It's a golden-hour hued house track suffused with late-summer afternoons.

Kelela - Washed Away

I'm upset that I got to her album, Raven, so late this year, but - oh man - is it something special. Her powerful voice crests and swoons over this ethereal track. The sparse vocals speak of renewal, an ablution with the earth itself, on moving forward.

If you found this, read it, skimmed it, or skipped it, I hope the rest of your year goes by peacefully, restfully.

Week ending: 28th November

Winter is setting in fast, and with it two quite different songs, one subtle and soothing, the other basic but with some solid backing vocals, at least.

Devil Woman - Marty Robbins (peaked at Number 5)

Marty Robbins is somebody who hasn't really come up in the charts yet, I don't think? He's a fairly well-known country artist, and was putting out music throughout the 1950s, but he never seems to have made it to the UK charts - until now, and honestly, I'm glad he's here. There's a gentleness and a soft sentimentality to this one that I really appreciate, a melancholy that's understated and very pretty. That's a weird descriptor for a country song about infidelity, but there you go. It's super pretty, with lots of gentle Spanish guitar and quiet percussion beats. Add in Marty's gentle, dreamy voice, and some very subtle use of backing ooooohs and you've got a song that's almost soothing, just in its sound.

And yet, like I said, it's about infidelity - a whole little story, told plainly and very honestly. I told Mary about us, Marty begins, I told her about our great sin / Mary cried and forgave me / And Mary took me back again. The love and respect for Mary, Marty's original love, is clear, here. She gives him the option to leave and be free, but he doesn't want to - and doesn't want to see Mary crying again. And yet, the woman he's been seeing on the side doesn't seem quite willing to take her hooks out of Marty, hence the chorus, as he sings oh, devil woman / Devil woman, let go of me / Devil woman, let me be and leave me alone / Let me go home. He never names this woman, you notice. Mary gets that honour. The lover doesn't. Which tells a whole story about Marty's change of heart, and his priorities now.

In all this, there's a calypso sort of feel - from the rhythms, to the melody, to the use of what sounds like either steel drums or some other pitched percussion, to lyrics evoking a beachy setting. Heck, look at Marty's line about how you're evil / Like the dark coral reef / Like the winds that bring high tides / You bring sorrow and grief. It almost frames this interloper as a sea-witch, some underwater sorceress. And when he finally takes his leave of her, we get lines about how he's runnin' along by the seashore / Running as fast as I can / Even the seagulls are happy / Glad I'm comin' home again. It's all appealingly exotic, and honestly feels like it would fit along folk-revival songs like Sloop John B. It's not a folk song - it's a Marty original - but it's got the right feel, you know? I like it a lot.

(Dance With The) Guitar Man - Duane Eddy (4)

And then, Duane Eddy, in a track that's peak rock and roll self-indulgence. I mean, how much more on-the-nose could you get? A whole Duane Eddy number about how much fun it is to dance to rock and roll music? It's not bad at all, but it is kind of cliché at this point. I mean, half the lyrics are just C'mon and dance, dance with the guitar man. It's very basic. Hey everybody, if you like rock and roll / You're gonna like the guitar man / Cause he plays it with a lot of soul. Great, cool. Love a song telling me how much I ought to like the song.

I think part of the reason I'm salty is that musically, this is kind of basic. I don't mind songs whose whole concept is "this song rocks!" when they actually sound cool and fun, but while there's nothing wrong with DWTGM, it's just kind of slow, for a rock and roll number. Duane's a good guitar player, and clearly having fun, especially when given a solo, but it's not as wild as some of what I'm heard from him, either. And aside from that, there's not a whole tonne going on. Some muted saxophone, a bassline, a bit of background piano. The bit I like best, in all this, is probably Duane's guitar picking - not the solo, but just after the solo. I don't know enough about guitars to tell you why I like it, or what technique he's using, but there's something about how choppy and stopped it sounds, how the notes just cut each other off, that I actually do really like. But aside from that? There's precious little that I can pull out here. There's nothing bad, but it just all gives the feeling of being a bit "rock and roll by numbers".

It is interesting to hear singing going on - and not Duane singing, either. Instead, the band here are the Rebelettes, later to be known as the Blossoms, who were best known for the song He's a Rebel, which sadly won't be popping up on the UK charts. Still, they're this very cool classic 1960s girl group, and it's nice to see them getting a toehold in the UK charts, even if its only as a (sadly uncredited) backing group. They give a sort of R&B feel to the song that's very welcome, and definitely elevates it beyond what it would otherwise have been. Sadly, the Blossoms won't be appearing again, though their Phil Spector counterparts, the Crystals, will be making an appearance in due course - which I'm absolutely looking forward to! More girl groups, please!

I didn't mind either of these songs at all, though I will confess that I was a little disappointed by Guitar Man - I've definitely heard the song before, but long enough ago that I'd forgotten the finer details, and I think I went in with overly high expectations of it. Oh well. Marty was a pleasant surprise, at least - not somebody I'd have sought out or listened to, before writing this up, but I might have to go listen to some more Marty Robbins, if that's his style. Very chill, very nice voice, very approachable, simple songwriting. And the calypso vibes were impeccable.

Favourite song of the bunch: Devil Woman

Why'd you go and create a backstory for Jones when he doesnt need one? Your getting rid of the whole villain aspect

[the-knight-of-the-stars]

Percy Jackson:  The Battle of the Labyrinth first reading thoughts:

-I did not thought Rachel would come back, and even less so that she would play an important part. But I really liked her, she was pretty cool. (Not her throwing a hairbrush at kronos, how iconic)

-At the begining, Percy insisting it wasnt a date and then Annabeth being all upset about the interruption. My dear girl, she did thought it was like a date, didn't she?

-I liked that this was Annabeth's mission, we bearly saw her in the last book and here she got to shine a lot more.

-Ok, the setting of this one was amazing. I love the concept of a labyrinth and underground places so this was right up my alley and I think it was very well used.

-The fact that the labyrinth was so unstable and changing added a very interesting twist to it, I really enjoyed every time they were inside of it.

-I love that we finally see this four on a mission together, I loved it.

-And Tyson my dear! He was amazing on this one!-We see a lot more new monsters on this one and it really adds to the urgence of Kronos putting together his army.

-I really like that Percy actually questions himself why he is supporting the gods, I like that he realizes that things are not as binary as they seem. And Annabeth being so close to Luke and still caring about him adds even more layers to the matter.

-Nico's storyline was very interesting too, I like how it was handled, his unresolved issues wih her sister's death and how isolated he feels. I'm glad he realized at the end that he is not really alone.

-We actually got some focus on minor gods too! (Or at least mentions of them).

-Ok, it has nothing to do with anything but it got me thinking... Is Eros ever mentioned? He is a pretty significant figure among the non-Olympians and even a primordial god in earlier versions... No? We saw Aphrodite, so...

-Was not expecting to see Hera, but it was pretty cool.

-But I liked even more to see Hephestus, I loved how in very few pages you understand his struggle with connection and the kind of relationship he has with the other gods. (Also he gave me a lot of steampunk vibes and that is perfect for him)

-Hephestus saying is a shame Athena never married... Weird (didn't they had an accidental son when she rejected him in some myth?)

-I really love how Percy's dreams are used as narrative tools in the story. The slow reveilings of Minos, Daedalus and other small elements was very well placed and made me enjoy the story a lot more.

-Annabeth being jelous and Percy being totally oblivious was driving me insane, but it was kinda cute too.

-AHHHHH AND SHE KISSED HIM THEY ARE SO CUTE I CAN'T. Why didn't they talked about it after ajaksjsj wow, to be a 14 year old idiot again.

-Def was not expecting to see Calypso either, it was more depressing than I thought it would.

-It was definitely not acknowledged enough that they all though Percy was DEATH for several days. (And Hephestus let them belive it???)

-Damn, to see Luke get used like that felt very messed up. Kronos is back and it really feels everything is going down.

-Pan's death was sad and beautiful.

-The battle in the camp was really well narrated, I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. There was finally casualties and it just feels the weight of everything is coming at them. You can tell we are reaching the end of the line.

-OH MY GODS PERCY TALK TO ANNABETH

-Ahhh, I'm so happy Sally found someone who loves her.

-This kids are growing so fast I AM NOT OK

-I liked the ending, full of hope, but bitter sweet. At least I hope they all can have some happy times before everything goes downhill.

-Well I loved the book, may be my favorite one so far.

-I already started The Last Olympian and I can't wait to see where it goes.

-I'm aware now that there is waaay more books from this world and for the looks of it, I do intend to read them all. I'm so hooked, I don't think I can stop now.

How do you passive aggresively say fuck you in flower? Part II

Summary: It seems that Nico and Will just cant stop running into each other

A/N: FIRST WEEK OF EXAMS OVER, ONLY ONE WEEK TO GO!! Unfortunately, I am not able to write a lot due to tedious revision but I wrote this part 2 a while ago and thought that today would be the perfect time to release it! Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy and comment! <3 from me!

Read on AO3           Read Part I on tumblr

They were not expecting to see each other the next day at Uni. In fact, Will was so shocked, he had to pause and squint at the raven haired boy to check that he was the same as the customer 2 days ago. What was this dude doing here? This was the medical college!

Oh shit, what if he’s a new med student or a transfer student?

However, while it seemed that Will had noticed Nico, it seemed that Nico had not noticed Will; he couldn’t have been more appalled as he was ignored and he simply watched in despair as the italian jogged past him without a moment's pause. Not even a Hey, you’re the guy I made out with yesterday, right?

Will was used to having all his past hookups follow him like a sheep and sure, he hadn’t really hooked up with Nico but he was for some reason expecting some sort of reaction from him. Was he that forgettable?

He felt someone dig their elbow into his ribs and was about to shout What the fuck before he realised that Calypso was elbowing him.

“Calypso what!” He winced as he rubbed at his side, still in pain from Calypso’s pointy elbows.

“Do you think I should invite Leo to the dorm party?”

Will’s head perked up. “ Leo? Leo valdez?”

“Yes Leo Valdez, who else?” Calypso sighed.

“I thought you saw him making out with some guy at another party and then proceeded to pretend you never liked him in the first place-”

“- Which is true! I never liked Leo in the first place, he was just a friend!” Calypso desperately defended.

“Everytime someone says they’re just a friend and not they’re just my friend, you know that they’ve crushed on them.”

“Shut up.” Calypso whacked her bag over Will’s head, ignoring his shouts of protests.

Will’s hands instinctively went over his head, tucking his chin in to prevent himself from gaining any brain damage from Calypso. “ Hey, Hey! I work for you, little shit!”

“Exactly, I can fire you any second I want to!” Calypso boasted before remembering something. “ Wasn’t there a request that came in on Saturday? Something like fuck you?”

Will could feel the blood rushing to his cheeks. “ Uh, yeah, maybe. I don’t really remember.”

Calypso recognised that tone. That tone was the same tone used during the walk of shame, that tone meant things that she did not want in her shop. Turning her head only halfway, she gave Will a grimace, praying that it hadn’t happened again.

“William Andrew Solace, Please please tell me that you didn’t have sex with another client in my shop!”

“For once,” Will smirked. “ For once, I can actually say that I didn’t.”

Calypso sighed in relief, all the tension in her body simply oozing out all at once. Her shoulders dropped and the tense expression on her face was replaced by her regular small smile that she constantly wore, causing her to seem quite shy, which technically she was.

“You know, you seriously have some nerve Callie, hitting your employees like that. That could be harassment. What happened to the shy girl who could tell me the latin name for any plant out there?”

“Just because I don’t hook up with every good looking breathing thing, does not mean I’m shy.” She put her hands on her hips and took several confident steps while swaying her hips before hitting a hard chest with a thud and feeling the hard floor on her butt. Frustrated, she huffed and without even looking at the perpetrator, began to shout,

“Are you blind or stupid? Look where you’re going for fuck sake.” She ignored the offered hand and got up herself, brushing her scraped hands on her pants.

It was only when Will nudged her, not very discreetly may I add, that she noticed that it was Leo Valdez who was offering the outstretched hand and another very scary looking dude standing by Leo. However, something about him seemed familiar- from the shape of his body to his hair and in particular his jawline. She remembered seeing it somewhere.

Fuck, that was the guy Leo was making out with at that party. She realised.

Simultaneously, Will was thinking- Fuck, that was Nico di Angelo.

“Sorry Leo, Calypso,” Will turned to her, completely avoiding Nico. “ Do you have anything you’d like to say to Leo?”

Claypso gave a bitter look to Will before remebering that Leo fucking Valdez was standing infront of her and she had essentialy told him to fuck off. She had to fight the blush rising to the tip of her ears and could only manage to muster a small pipsqueak of ‘sorry’ while looking down at the floor and having her face curtained by her chestnut hair.

Unexpectedly, she felt a hand move the hair out of her face and slip and finger underneath her chin and tilt it up slightly.

“The least you could do while apologising is look at him,” Nico snarled, standing off to the side, watching as Leo brushed her hair out of the way. Leo turned his head to raise an eyebrow that meant Not cool dude before looking back at Calypso, his eyes warm and his smile generous.

“Sorry about him, he’s running low on social interaction juice. Are you okay there?”

Calypso thought she could feel herself gaping- the worst part was that her little shit of a friend Will pointed it out.

“Close your mouth Callie, you’ll get flies. It’s impolite to stare as well,” Will drawled, his eyes still glued away from Nico. Leo glanced at Calypso’s injured hands, the small scrapes and the little cuts across her palms. His frown was cute, with his eyebrows scrunching up and his eyes pooled with concern as he took her hands in his.

“Oh, Dios mio. I’m so sorry- will you forgive me if I clean these up for you?” Leo held her hands gently, as to not hurt her.

Will butted in before Calypso could respond. “Uh, no, that’s not necessary. I can help her from here!”

Nico snorted. “ Yeah, the med- student definitely knows how to clean up his cuts.”

Will growled in response, unappreciative of Nico’s sarcasm. Leo’s frown in concern only grew, the small displays of guilt visible across his face. “ Are you sure? It’s the least I could do after causing you to fall.”

“No it's fine-”

“-Will, calm down. Yes, I’ll go, but you also owe me,” Calypso confirmed. You know your worth, you know your worth, She chanted in her head.

“Well well, a person who knows what they want, of course, I am in your debt. After you.” Leo pointed to the pavement ahead as he left Will and Nico alone. Nico looked Will up and down before letting out a little snort and walking off, not before giving him a little shove with his shoulder as he walked past.

Will was officially outraged. Who the fuck did this guy think he was? First of all, he was barging into the medical college when he didn’t even attend it, then he was barging him to the floor without even apologising and then laughing about it!

Will turned around while still on the floor and yelled. “Who the fuck do you think you’re pushing dipshit?”

Will really thought he had the upper hand. He was taller, felt he was relatively stronger and his reflexes were okay. But when he saw Percy Jackson, Jason Grace, Piper Mclean, Hazel Levesque, Frank Zhang and Annabeth Chase all crowd round Nico, he felt he was the most screwed person in the world. Luckily for him, no one except a girl with brown skin and confused expression turned around.

Will recognised her as Piper Mclean- she had been voted most beautiful girl in the entire Uni. It was rumoured for a while that she and Jason were dating but ever since Will spotted Piper blushing near a new girl, he highly doubted it. Piper raised an eyebrow and Will gave a sheepish smile as he tried to get up.

Piper scurried over, giving her friends a quick wave before running over to help Will. He accepted her hand, mainly because he was terrified that she may kill him if he didn’t.

“Did Nico knock you down here?” Piper asked as Will heaved himself up. Her voice was sweet, soft and had some element that convinced Will that he could trust her; however, at the same time, he didn’t want to snitch on Nico. He gave a blatant shrug and hoped for the best.

“Don’t worry, Nico always teases people he likes. Little idiot isn’t good at showing any emotion other than being horny or being an arsehole.”

“Are you sure those are emotions?”

“I take psychology so I sure as hell hope they are,” Piper confessed, laughing a bit. Will finally realised why everybody considered Piper so beautiful- she wasn’t just a pretty person, she was a nice person. She went out of her way to help others.

“I take medicine so I’m going to hope for the best that Nico doesn’t kill me. He avoids like I’m the plague then acts like he’s planning on murdering me in my sleep.”

“Wait.” Piper paused before turning to Will with a manic grin on her face. “Are you the guy from the flower shop who made the fuck you bouquet and slept with Nico?”

“We didn’t sleep together!”

But Piper wasn’t listening, she was calling Hazel over. Will watched as a girl with gorgeous dark skin that glowed in the sunlight and a tattoo over her left hand turned her head ever so slightly. Will realised why they called her Death’s sister.

She was undoubtedly beautiful but her silent aura was terrifying, like it was driving you to death itself. Large brown eyes that invited you into the darkness and hands that looked sculpted for leading one to their doom.

“Hey Hazelnut! This is the guy who stole Nico from Leo! And he made the Fuck you bouquet that Annabeth gave Percy!”

Will could feel his heart pounding as Hazel left the group and walked slowly to Piper and Will, her expression never changing. Suddenly, when she was close enough to throw a punch, she broke out into a childish grin and started squealing.

“So you’re the one who made Percy that bouquet!” Hazel grabbed Will’s hands and started shaking them excitedly. She giggled before giving them back to him.

“What does making Percy this bouquet have to do with any of this? I only knew Nico because we made out like once and then the fucker blanked me.”

“That’s my little brother you're talking about,” Hazel warned. Will instantly felt his eyes widened in horror before apologizing profusely; he remembered what Nico had told him about his sister and how the two of them had grown up. Hazel laughed before telling him that she was only joking and that he should let loose a bit.

“Was Nico with Leo when he ignored you? Leo Valdez? About yee tall, messy brown hair and ink on his overalls?”

“Yes…” Will nodded.

“Ahhh, that explains it. Those two have a complicated history. He was probably ignoring you because he and Leo might have gotten back together. Or maybe he just didn’t want Leo to know that he made out with you. Or…” Piper let out a grin that Will had no desire to learn the true meaning of.

“Maybe he was just using Leo to make you jealous,” Piper explained, very much used to the drama herself between Nico and Leo. If it wasn’t Percy and Annabeth, Nico and Leo were almost always in an argument.

“So…” Will was deadly silent for a second while his rage began to simmer. “ Are you telling me he cheated on that Leo kid with me?”

“ I really hope not,” Hazel grimaced, looking back at her brother.

“The little fucker,” Will muttered under his breath as he pushed past the two ladies and made his way towards the remaining group. He didn’t care that he was going to run into Percy Jackson, whom he’d had an underlying grudge with for as long as he’d been going to school, he was furious.

How dare he cheat with him. What was Will, some slut who ruined relationships? Hell no. Sure, he slept around but he didn’t go around getting into relationships and creating drama. One night stands were his protocol.

“You!” Will pointed at Nico viciously, his finger almost touching Nico’s nose. The rest of the group simply watched with amusement as Piper held back Jason, whispering who exactly Will was.

“You little cheating seething whore! What the fuck dude! You just make out with whoever you buy shit from?”

“I don't remember you having much of a problem with it.” Nico shrugged, only infuriating Will that much more. He was so tempted to just punch him then and there, in front of everybody including 6 of the most intimidating people he’d ever seen.

“I don't remember you mentioning you had a boyfriend before you jumped me,” Will spat. Nico seemed a little shocked at that comment, his lips shaping into a small ‘o’ before he let a sultry smirk spread across his face in a manner that showed he was relatively proud of himself, only pissing Will off so much more.

Why was the damned bastard smirking?

“Huh, what boyfriend?” Nico turned to Annabeth. “ Hey, Annie, do I have a boyfriend?”

Annabeth looked down at her watch for dramatic effect. “As of 4 months, you have been boyfriend free,” She started and only continued when she saw the smug look on Nico’s face. “That said, that does not mean you have been booty call free for said months.”

“What do you mean!” Nico cried.

“Oh shut it Nico, everyone knows that you and Leo have been playing each other’s booty call for ages now. Just end it and go out with the florist dude,” Frank scoffed.

“Or don’t! The florist dude sounds like a real ass!” Percy cut in, desperate to not let Nico go out with his lifelong nemesis, William Andrew Solace.

“Oh look, it’s Perseus,” Will taunted. Percy felt himself going red and the entire group went quiet. Will looked around, wondering why everyone was silent.

“Oh, you guys don’t know?” Will smirked, looking directly at Percy, the knowledge on the tip of his tongue. “ That’s what everybody called Percy in middle school, after we learnt the myth of P-”

The rest of the sentence was muffled as Will felt a hand wrap itself around his mouth. He looked up and saw the sea green eyes that read Shut the fuck up . Will, feeling nostalgia from this certain situation, smirked and stuck his tongue out, licking Percy’s hands, eliciting a yelp of disgust from Percy.

“Dude! Why do you always do that! Every fucking time I’m trying to shut you up, you pull shit like this!”

“You’re telling me that wasn’t the first time you tried to ‘shut him up’?” Nico and Annabeth both asked, hostility floating in their voices. Will gave a jolly smile at Percy who groaned and wiped his hands on Will’s shirt, muttering ‘gross’ under his breath. Will shoved Percy who proceeded to make a face back.

“How do you two know each other?” Frank asked, completely confused before Hazel went up on her tiptoes and began whispering in Frank's ear while he nodded along.

Nico, sick of Will’s attention not being focused on him butted in. “ Did you come all this way to flirt with Percy or what?”

Percy and Will both gagged and shivered, the idea of liking each other being just gross.

“I’m here because you son of a bitch, used me!” Will cried, flinging his arms out.

Nico raised an eyebrow. “I did?”

“Your boyfriend, booty call, whatever you wanna call them- was right there and I was just some pawn for you-”

“-If I wasn’t talking or paying any attention to you whatsoever, how on earth would I make them jealous?”

Will didn’t respond, his mind racking for answers, excuses, insults he could fling at the raven haired boy. He noticed he wasn’t wearing his lip ring that day.

“I think you should focus on the fact that Leo and I just so happened to be at the Medical College despite our majors being nothing related and we just so, by chance, crashed into you and your friend,” Nico hinted. He was a bit tired from how oblivious this blond guy was- hadn’t he made it obvious?

Will took a while to connect a few dots, but the problem was that he only connected the exact dots that Nico did not want him to connect.

“Wait, so Leo does like Callie? Is that why you guys are here?”

Nico wanted to fucking facepalm.

Saturday

The shop bell rang. Calypso was sitting at the counter with her apprentice, Meg. They were both chatting, something to do with the variation of a certain dandelion- Will wasn’t very sure.

He was sporting a daisy chain around his wrist that Meg had forced him to wear and a pink rose had been braided into his hair after much argument with Calypso that the thorns would hurt, in which she retorted that she’d obviously clip the bloody thorns.

When the bell rang, none of the three workers really snapped their heads up. But when the bell rang, and then rang and then rang again, they slowly lifted their heads from their conversation. Will, who had been leaning his elbows on the counter to talk to the two ladies, turned his head to see 8, very unwelcome people, walk into his shop.

Nico was standing there with all 7 of hids friends- Percy, Annabeth, Frank, Hazel, Piper, Jason and Leo. All of whom were very much not welcome in any way whatsoever in this shop.

“What are you doing here?”

The friends all glanced at one another before a few sputters of laughter were spread out. Nico, who was wearing his lip ring again, walked forward and picked up a red rose, twirling the thorny flower in his two fingers, ignoring the small prick it made.

He noticed the blood trickling down his thumb and lifted the injury to his lips.

“Didn’t I tell you last time...” Nico asked, his voice teasing but also malicious, a small corner of his lips stained red. “That you’ll be seeing a lot more of us?”

Requested on wattpad

"I killed my wife"? Thomas started to hyperventilate. His face turned white as a ghost and the sweat poured down his face.

"Thomas, calm down". Jay came to his aid, grabbing his arm and taking him to a seat.

"What's going on"? Thomas felt light headed. The room was spinning.

"Thomas take a deep breath, hold for ten seconds and let it out slowly". The doctor came up beside Jay.

"Tell me what's going on? Are the kids alright"? He took deep breathes in and out.

"The kids are alright. Might need therapy after the video they saw".

"What video"?

"Of you dying and getting tortured".

"No. What about Y/N"? Thomas looked at the doctor for answers.

"Her hearts weak. When the triplets were born it took a toll on her heart. Mixed with the worry and constant stress. She's anemic as well. Was she taking care of herself"?

Thomas didnt know the answer since he wasnt there so he looked to Jay and Kelly.

"She wasn't taking her meds like the aftercare doctor told her too. She wasn't eating or sleeping. She was stressed all the time and when she saw Thomas die I think her soul and will to live left her. She said she couldn't live without him". Kelly informed the doctor and Thomas. Jay nodded in agreement.

"Why didnt you guys help out more"? Thomas yelled.

"We did. You know how hardheaded Y/N is. She didn't want our help but we gave it to her and she complained but took it". Kelly yelled back. He knew Thomas  was just upset but blaming them for the situation that you were in he was not going to have it.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't blame you. I should've been there".

"You had to do something for your country. It's not like you left on purpose. You had a reason". Jay comforted his friend.

"So what do we do doc"? Thomas asked running his hand down his beard.

"Well, she's on meds. We're watching her heart but her red count is down and we've tested Kelly and Jay but you haven't been".

"Tested? For what"?

"Blood. She needs a match and it would be better if she got it from a family member or you".

"I'll do anything.  Take my heart just keep her alive". Thomas made the doctor chuckle.

"That's not necessary, Thomas. I'll get a nurse and well run some test". He smiled and departed the waiting room.

"How are you not a match. Kelly"?

"I don't know. I'm the only living relative besides the kids and they won't do blood on them since they're little".

"I hope I am. I can't lose her".

"You're not going to lose her Tommy. My sister is a fighter and she'll pull through".

A nurse came and got Thomas taking him back to a testing room. It took twenty minutes to see if they matched and luckily they did. Thomas  was hooked up and started pumping blood. Jay and Kelly kept him in snack foods and drinks so he wouldn't pass out from all the blood being taken.

After a while they let Thomas back to see you. The color from your cheeks were completely gone. Thomas hardly recognized you at first. He sat beside your bed holding your hand. Thinking how did it come to this? What in the life you had together made this happen? Thomas beat himself up cause he blamed himself. If he hadn't left you still would be healthy and sitting at home with the kids reading a bed time story.

You two would be getting ready for bed and talking about the plans for the next day. Holding and cuddling with each other. Probably talking about kids. You both wanted a big family and you already had one but it could always grow.

But instead you're getting hooked up for a blood tranfusion. The only thing keeping you here was his blood. So it better work magic.

The nurse came in and checked on the progress. You were handling the tranfusion nicely and your heart rhythm was up.

"It's looking good". She spoke to Thomas  bringing him out of his self blaming.

"That's great". He said weakly.

"How long have you two been together"?

"Going on fifteen years. We have a set of twins that are eleven and triplets that are almost eight months".

"Wow, big family. A lot of love".

"There is. When I was deployed I was thinking about how we met and how we got to this point. It doesn't add up to me".

"How did you two meet"?

"I'm a cop and her brother is a firefighter. She came to the bar with him and he was actually setting her up with my best friend but when I saw her across the room in that mini skirt I knew I had to have her. She was beautiful. The most important thing that I wanted in my life.

Well I asked her out for the next day and she said "sure". The first date was horrible. We go to this burger joint that I loved and we order started talking about what we wanted in life and we just couldn't get enough of one another. When we were leaving the store next door was getting robbed and I went after the suspects. I completely forgot that Y/N was there. I caught the guys called for back up and went back to the burger place. Figure she left, called a taxi and was cursing my name on the way home. She wasn't she was still there, had another burger in hand and wanted to go back to her place to talk more. Boy did we talk. It was about six in the morning before we knew what time it was. We learned and told each other everything. She kissed me good morning before I had to go into work. I knew I wanted to marry this girl right away".

"That sounds like a cops fairy tale. A woman to be there even when you put your job first".

"It was. It is. She's always been there for me and she's taken my weird schedule. Put up with my smelly self. Gave me five amazing kids. Deals with me getting shot at and she deals with the back fire of my job. She's a rock and I wouldn't know what to do without her". Thomas sniffled, trying not to cry in front of the nurse.

"She's lucky to have you and you're extremely lucky to have her. Once this is over, dont take it for granted".

"I'm not. We're going back to that burger place and I'm redoing the whole date over maybe that's what this life needs is a do over. Maybe it wouldn't have ended like this".

"It hasn't ended. It's just begun". She smiled and left the room.

Looking up at you, Thomas saw the color coming back to your cheeks. Your breathing started to go back to normal and your BP started to straighten out. The blood was working.

"That's is baby, come back to me. I'm here waiting for you to yell at me for not being dead and waiting for you to kiss me because I'm not dead". He kissed your hand giving it a squeeze.

Couple days had past and you were getting better. Your test were coming back normal. The doctors wanted to ease Thomas in to see you since you still thought he was dead, seeing him could give you a fright that could keep you in the hospital a little longer.

Thomas peeked in the room, you were sitting up resting. He wanted to badly to come in and kiss you but he stayed back that is until you saw his reflection in the mirror.

You screamed thinking you saw a ghost. That ghost was walking towards you. Your heart monitor started going of the charts.

"I'm real. Y/N, it's okay. I'm here". Thomas came and sat down on the bed, taking your hand slowly and bringing it to his face.

"I saw you die". You began to sob.

"It was fake.  I had to fake my death so the guy we were after got taken out. I'm sorry you and the kids had to see that. I never meant to hurt you all like that".

"Oh Thomas. I'm so glad you're alive and here. I was so scared of losing you but now I know you're safe I'm going to be okay". "Just dont ever do that again".

"I'm done with that life. I'm hanging up my boots. I dont ever want to put you through this again".

"I love you Thomas".

"I love you more Y/N. I love the kids and my job and I love our life".

"I'm so glad you're here". You fell into his arms hugging him tightly never wanting to let go.

"I have a surprise for you". Thomas smiled wide as he went to the door. He waved to someone. You could see it was the kids with Kelly and Jay.

"Mommy". Laura and Logan hugged you. You kissed their heads.

"I love this surprise".

"It's not over yet". Kelly and Jay brought out behind their backs two husky puppies. One all white and one black and white.

"Oh my". You gasped with a giggle as they gave them to you. The puppies giving you and the kids love.

"Their names are Lulu and Calypso".

"I love them".

"They're to help with the healing and to take your mind off things".

"Thank you".

"You're welcome, babe".

"Alright kids, let's leave mommy and daddy to talk". Kelly took puppies and kids out leaving you two alone.

"When we get home, the God parents are watching the kids for the weekend and we're going on a date and having some alone time".

"We are? If you're trying to recreate our first date I dont think you can". You chuckled as Thomas's jaw dropped.

"You were listening"?

"I was out of it not dead".

"I loved how we got together. I wouldn't change anything. Except maybe finding and marrying you sooner. I love you with my everything". You kissed Thomas with passion and fiery.

"I love you with my eveything and more. I'm sorry that I put you through this".

"I'm fine and we're stronger. I'm just glad you're here with me". Thomas held onto as you leaned back on the bed. He listened to your heart, it sounded the same as it did when you first got together. Things change but love remains the same.

[asiryn]

so hey.......y’all remember when i said that sometimes, just for fun and the hell of it, i make lists of “endgame” ships in my fandoms? bc yeah, that’s a thing that i do sometimes. XD

having now finished kh3, i’ve finally finished my endgame ship list for kh, and i figured that it might be a fun thing to share!

the actual list i’m gonna put behind a cut, bc it’ll be hella long (bc seriously.....i put about 95% of the characters into ships, and this includes all of the humanoid-ish disney characters too (barring most of the villains, bc....well, those characters are dead)), but before that, i’ll give you some....idk, context behind this list. 

keep in mind, this entire affair is just like........gonna involve a fuck-ton of indulgence on my part. and most of this is fairly light-hearted. most importantly of all, this is pretty much a self-challenge: i paired up the majority of the characters just to see if i could, with the additional challenge that i could only pair them with characters that actually, canonically, have appeared in kh (this means that i couldn’t substitute in other final fantasy or disney characters); i did this to see how creative i could get with my ships, really. 

idk if i’ll ever actually get around to writing fanfic for this verse (tho i do have a lot of headcanons, and i’ve actually put (probably far too much) thought into how i think these ships would work/come about, and my long-suffering friend Ip, bless her, has been an incredibly good sport about being a sounding board for all this), but i tend to refer to it as my “Healing Vision”, and it’s basically a post-kh3 AU, that presumes that everyone but xehanort (and also eraqus) got to live happily ever after. and this verse is so named bc, apart from everyone being able to heal and be happy after the traumatic canon, i also wanted to do my absolute best to put them in.....idk, healthy ships, and not ones that i think would be more toxic. everyone had redemption arcs, is what i’m saying (even if they never did or would have gotten them in canon).

y’all don’t understand, at this point i probably have over a hundred pages in various word docs of notes about this verse, so please feel free to ask if you want to hear more about it, i need validation of my madness---

anyway, here we go!

just so that there isn’t just a massive wall of text, i’m gonna break this up into roughly 2 sections: square/original kh characters, and then the rest of the disney characters.

Square/original KH characters:

Olette/Xion/Namine/Sora/Riku [OXN, SoNami, & SoRiku], Shiki/Kairi/Selphie, Axel/Saix, Hayner/Roxas, Terra/Cinderella, Aqua/Larxene/Yuffie, Repliku/Vanitas, Ven/Beat [more friends w/ benefits], Xigbar/Luxord, Aeleus/Even, Ienzo/Demyx, Sora’s Mom/Dilan, (Cinderella’s) Prince Charming/Marluxia, Geppetto/Ansem, Tidus/Wakka, Zack/Cloud/Leon, Aerith/Tifa, Cid/Auron, Fuu/Tinker Bell, Seifer/Rai, Jack Sparrow/Setzer, Boo/Vivi [platonic], Rikku/Paine, Yuna/Elsa, Neku/Joshua, Rhyme/Snow White, Hiro/Pence, & Eraqus/Xehanort [together in death]

i have no idea what’s going on with the khux characters going forward, and atm they don’t really have anything to do this AU, but assuming they’re alive and they’re all their own characters, at least for the time being, those ships would be: Skuld/Strelitzia, Ava/Ephemer, Invi/Ira/Aced, Gula/Brain, and Sephiroth/Master of Masters (but again, these are more tentative, and i don’t actually care about these characters, really)

Disney characters:

(again, keep in mind that these are only the humanoid or really anthropomorphic characters; ones that are straight up animals, like simba for example, were not included)

Mickey/Minnie/Daisy/Donald/Goofy [M/M, D/D, MinDaisy, & qpt Donald/Goofy], Horace Horsecollar/Pete, Clarabelle Cow/Clara Cluck, Hercules/Meg, Tarzan/Jane, Aladdin/Jasmine, Ariel/Eric, Belle/Beast, Lumiere/Cogsworth, Will/Elizabeth, Quasimodo/Phoebus/Esmeralda, Kristoff/Anna/Rapunzel/Eugene, Maleficent/Aurora/Mulan/Shang/Phillip [Malora, Philora, Mulora, Mulan/Shang, Phillip/Shang], Alice/Wendy, Peter/Wendy [qpt], Peter/Tinker Bell [qpt], (BatB) Chip/Pinocchio, Anastasia/Chien Po, Yao/Prince (from Snow White), Ling/Drizella, Merlin/Yen Sid, Hades/Genie, Mrs. Potts/Flora, Merryweather/Triton, Hook/Smee, Doc/Grumpy, Blue Fairy/Dopey, Fairy Godmother/Happy, Fauna/Bashful, Slightly/Cubby [platonic], Calypso/Barbossa, Sam Flynn/Quorra, Queen of Hearts/Agrabah Merchant, (BatB) Wardrobe/Gibbs, Emperor/Sleepy [his cuddle-cubine, if you will], Grand Duke/Sneezy, Mike/Sulley, Woody/Buzz, Honey Lemon/Go Go, Wasabi/Fred, Baymax/Tron/Baymax, & Phil/Zeus

Assorted Notes:

- should probably mention that all the worlds are just vaguely All Connected Now

- ven and hercules dated in bbs (then the Plot happened, ven pretty much vanished, and eventually herc moved on. they’re a bit awkward with each other now, but they agreed it’d be too weird to even attempt to date now, bc herc outgrew ven while he was in a magic coma)

- zack’s alive bc they forced hades to resurrect him like he did with auron (my hc is that the deal he made with cloud in kh1 was to bring zack back to life, but hades reneged on this; when cloud finally shared this info with sora, a Quest was undertaken to get hades to honor the deal)

- repliku’s name in this verse is Kiru (he decided to go along with the Theme, minus the sigil); sora’s mom is named Hikari; and i’m going with henry and florian for the real names of prince charming and snow’s prince, respectively (marluxia will probably still call henry “charming” as a sort of affectionate and kind of joking nickname (bc in this verse, henry is the definition of a Disaster Gay))

- goofy and pete dated in the past, but broke up with goofy came out as aroace; pete’s still kinda bitter about it

- aqua/larxene/yuffie is 100% a thing bc i feel that aqua deserves to be able to have fun and not be the responsible mom friend for once; aqua and cinderella also have some playful flirting, but it’s never really serious

- terra’s getting a staycation with his girlfriend, and aqua’s getting a vacation with her girlfriends 

- olette/xion/namine/sora/riku is Peak indulgence for me; i love namixiolette, sonami, and soriku too much to want to choose between them? fuck it, they’re all smushed together in a poly pile now. this is my indulgence fic, i can do what i want, and none of you can stop me XP (the other sub-ship combos, riku with any of the girls, and sora with the other two girls, are more queerplatonic, ftr)

- there’s like a whole soap opera behind mickey/minnie/daisy/donald/goofy coming to their current arrangement, mostly bc the idea of giving all the Drama to these characters in particular amuses me; same with past goofy/pete

- a recurring Theme in this verse is that compulsory heterosexuality is the true darkness, and pretty much no one is straight (and so, light = gay) (this is how the final confrontation in kh3 truly went down: sora: kingdom hearts, is gay! / xehanort: shit...u right, bro. kk, lemme just fade into the light of gay with my bf then)

- sephiroth in this verse is mostly just a vehicle for me to be able to mildly punish terrible lightside mentors, so this ship with the MoM is kinda a cracky spite ship (before kh3 went all in on xehaqus, this was eraqus’s original fate XD)

- i will admit, gula/brain is mostly just me going, “you both really annoy me, and i don’t care to find you better ships, so you two can deserve each other”; to be fair to myself, this attitude was on the rarer side during this process

- hiro totally builds a robot body for tron to use to visit the outside world, tho he still chooses to live in the computer most of the time; tron’s besties with baymax 1 & 2

- i’ll be honest: scrooge, huey, dewey, louie, chip, dale, and possibly jiminy, by my rules, should have been put into ships. they’re not bc i couldn’t find any that worked for me *shrugs*

- phil is more like zeus’s on and off again boyfriend; he’s really fucking annoyed that he keeps having to train a lot of zeus’s offspring, and that he kinda, in a way, ends up doing more parenting for them than zeus does; currently phil is kinda claiming herc away from zeus (”i’m his dad now, so there”) (so at this point, their relationship is more of a hatemance than anything else) (i guess in my hc, zeus skews more towards being like his myth self than the disney version)

- the total number of ships, if you’re curious, is 75

- i’ve actually got queer headcanons for the square characters (excluding the khux squad), and some of the disney characters, figured out (as an example, namine is a demiromantic asexual)

okay, i think i’ll stop here for now, tho of course i might tweak or add things later XD
