@howl-at--the-sun your ask got weirdly deleted, and I didn't entirely go with your prompt, but here's some pretentious goth Shadow at least! :D
~400 words, brief mention of drinking. Sorry for the name-drops you probably don't get!
---
"I don't like clubs," Shadow announces as the door closes behind him. He stands at the couch's arm and uses it as a fulcrum to tip himself onto the couch cushions. His makeup is undoubtedly smearing, but that's fine, it already was.
"You're just saying that because that one guy touched your hair," Vio says. He drops the keys in the dish by the door and sits down on the ground to wrestle with his shoes. "Which, to be fair, is a heinous thing to do."
"And that drink sucked," Shadow adds, turning his head so he can talk and breathe. "And they just played the obvious classics or industrial the whole time. Like, come on. If it's goth night, they should play goth music!"
Vio tosses his boots onto the mat and sits down on the couch by Shadow's head, careful not to get him. "Not a club to go back to, I agree."
Shadow isn't done complaining. He flips over, and now his necklaces are nearly choking him, but he moves things around. He and Vio looked damn good tonight, and they wasted all those fantastic vibes on a subpar club. He still tastes that awful mixer. Eugh.
"As much as I love Front 242," he says, "I wanted, at least, Fields of the Nephilim. Would that have killed them? No."
Vio pokes some hair from Shadow's eyes. "It probably would have."
"I can count the number of actual goth songs they played on one hand." Shadow holds up his fist to make his point. There's something oddly soothing about laying down and sticking his arms in the air. "Lucretia My Reflection. Duh. Kick in the Eye. I'll give them that. Are we going to count Love Will Tear Us Apart?"
"If we're being generous."
"I'm not." Shadow doesn't raise a finger for that one. "They had Move by Skeletal Family, credit where credit is due. I'm not gonna count Tones on Tail. Faith and the Muse did make me happy, though. They had that Christian Death bit—aren't we mad at them for some reason?"
Vio shrugs. "He did a few political things recently."
"Yeah, but so did Clan of Xymox, and we still like them."
"Shadow, you know there's no real definition of goth music."
Shadow sits up halfway to give Vio a look. "Yeah, sure, we can argue about Peter Murphy all day, but at least we can agree that Ministry isn't it!"
"Well, next time, you can volunteer as DJ."
"They should definitely hire me."

I personally like the changes in episode 6 because we have seen what happens in the books and the movies but with this new take even hardcore pjo fans get to experience suspense i mean we get to experience something new! idk why some people are mad they are taking creative liberties with the show like why would u want to watch the same thing take place for the third time?? and especially when the creator of the series is the one altering the plot to have it better suited to this gen

i think its weird that i have to make this disclaimer but the internet is crazy so wtvr,, anyway,,
if i say i dont like something, that doesnt mean "that thing is bad and nobody should post it.."
i swear literally every time i even mention that i dislike something, people will go "wow does that mean u fucking hate me cuz i post that thing? ur a fucking stupid bitch and all ur opinions r wrong" LIKE ?? er.. no. just because i say i dont like certain characterizations of certain characters (the saiki k fandom is CRAZY about this cuz i can state an opinion on literally any character and a group of people will still go 'well only we're allowed to post our opinions about them because we're always right!1!1!'), or certain ship tropes (mentioned my hatred of toxic yaoi maybe once or twice on here months ago and people STILL get mad at me as if i said toxic yaoi lovers r evil or something), or certain ships, or WHATEVER, does not mean that i HATE the people who are posting them or that i think they shouldnt post them at all, NO, im just posting about my personal tastes on my personal blog and it would be extremely weird and hypocritical if i decided that i was the ONLY person that was allowed to do that,,
i think the only reason people assume that is because there are a lot of other people on here who ARE like that, and a lot of people toe the line between posting that they dont like something and posting that they think everyone who likes that thing is stupid, annoying, and wrong,, so i guess all i can say is, sorry for whatever made you make these assumptions but they arent true about me so plz leave me alone ʘ‿ʘ ur doing the same thing to me that ur accusing me of but i didnt do it in the first place so ur just actively being a dick for no reason
