when halsey said "build love, build god, build promises, build callouses break promises, cause I could never hold a perfect thing and not demolish it" and when chappell roan said "whenever it may be, that you go on your way, if you really wanna leave, I'll never make you stay. whatever you decide, i will understand, and it'll all be fine, just go back to being friends" and when towa bird said "cut me deep, turn you into a deep cut, you're a story that I'll tell to my friends. on repeat, turn me into a deep cut, cause you never wanna see me again" and when hozier said "a two-ton weight feels like it just dropped a twenty story height. if there was anyone to ever get through this life with their heart still intact they didn't do it right" and when-

“If I’m so terrible, how about you just grow a pair and replace me?”

“Are you gonna run off with him . . . and leave me behind?"

Editors notes under the cut

These bitches are truly deeply hella troubled and I’m tired of pretending their root insecurities are not fascinatingly parallel to one another. 

(Posting cause there’s unprecedented storming outside and I can’t sleep lmao)

As soon as s2 ep 2 came out I really deeply truly desired to make a little something something for Octavia and Luna and their relationships with their dads. I hope future eps give us more father-daughter content.

I also REALLY liked remaking the second half. I originally wasn’t going to, but the idea of getting to rip apart my work and try again was too juicy of an opportunity to pass up. As someone incapable of self-satisfaction, this soothed some of the aches in me that long to pick and pick and pick at all my creations ad nauseam. Also, having more clips mean I get to provide different interpretations to the same lyrics I’ve already worked with, which is also super cool.

I’m utterly exhausted and my body hates me, but I just couldn’t miss my favourite day of the week 💚

Hope you’re feeling better, dear!

I am feeling much better, but I am so sorry to hear you're exhausted. I hope you're able to get some rest. 🖤
