@dogtccth asked: [ hem ] sender plays with the hem of receiver's shirt (rom & zach)

zachary held still as roman played with the hem of his shirt, " must we attend this gala ? " he asked, slightly worried they'd run into his former clients. not that it mattered, he would make sure to pretend he didn't know who they were. " why can't we just stay home ? " he's itching for a cigarette, but he knows roman's rules about smoking inside his place. " don't tell me you really want to show me off like arm candy ... " he chuckled.

closed starter for jesse ( @kismetx ) location: zach's apartment

˖ ✧   ▬▬  " AN EXCITING OPPORTUNITY LIES AHEAD OF YOU " zachary recites from the small piece of paper between nimble fingers, nose scrunching in displeasure. " rather generic, isn't it ? " it's a rhetorical question, really. " and subjective, what i find to be an 'exciting opportunity' could be far less life changing than what, say tom down the hall may consider an 'exciting opportunity', " fingers coming up to form quotations while he spoke. crumbling the small slip of paper that had been neatly folded inside the fortune cookie supplied with their takeout, he launches it in the direction of the trash can on the opposing side of the room.

it wasn't often zachary indulged on takeout food, but after an excessively long day of cooking for others, it was just about the last thing he wanted to even consider doing. while he especially liked to show off his culinary skills to any guests he may have had, jesse was different. which is why they sat on the couch in zach's apartment, chinese food littering the coffee table ( along with the half of the broken fortune cookie he hadn't consumed ).

" well, enlighten me, what does yours say ? "

* ﹙ 𝐈𝐂 ﹚ ; closed starter. ⭢ zachary ft. @cfsvnlight !

he grew bored of things too easily, everything became less of a challenge and his want for more was never met. they could promenade all they wanted, a portrait of elegance and wedded bliss, as he leant to whisper nothing but vicious gossip in her ears, if only to amuse himself. ❝ surely you have ladies to gossip and chatter amongst, you do not need me here, do you ? ❞

[malign4nt]

cont'd from x | @thefvrious

that's what he got for falling in love with an actor. it was always about their reputation and what would happen if they found out about them. he was growing angry and really just wanted to get out of their hotel. he was already reaching for the hat that would somehow make him invisible. he should've just listened to his gut and gone out with his friends. there were plenty of nobody's out on the hollywood strip. it would have been more fun than getting his heart torn into two. the tall man shook his head, hand raised to reject any last minute changes of heart. " i'm good. just pay me so i can get the fuck out of here. " he spat, putting on the hat.

[inquisitively-infinitesimal]

little things from Grace Hodgett-Young and Dónal Finn’s last performance in Hadestown that I refuse to forget:

‘has anybody got a match’ and Orpheus FINDS HER A MATCH BUT HERMES GETS THERE FIRST

Eurydice’s waistcoat looks to be made out of a similar/the same material as Orpheus’ trousers

‘you wanna take me home?’ with an off shoulder moment that flusters Orpheus

Eurydice finding Hades hot, Orpheus trying to win her back (foreshadowing on how Eurydice chooses Hades/the underworld over Orpheus after Chips Are Down ???)

from A Gathering Storm until Chips Are Down while Orpheus is working on his song he conducts in time with the music … Dónal Finn even memorised some of the piano bits and mimed them on the table ????

Eurydice frequently trying to give Hermes the coins back in Chips Are Down only for them to stand there

also Hermes constantly checks the time . very time loop survivor of them

‘it’s you?’ ‘it’s me :D’ ft Orpheus pumping his fists into the air

Hades’ cunty walk on the turntable (it was like he was on a runway Zachary James makes Hades into such a personality I loved it)

the fake blood/makeup on the side of Orpheus’s face running down during If It’s True because Dónal was crying

the workers/shades taking off their work caps during If It’s True as an act of defiance against Hades

I only noticed this in act 2 it could’ve been in act 1 but Grace wore a hair band? something ? wrapped around her ring finger on her left hand

Persephone side eyeing Hades’ silly dancing in epic iii

‘you finished the song’ ‘yes!’ and the audience cheering throwing off both Dónal and Grace (Grace had to skip a line I think)

perhaps the most evil thing of all Orpheus pumps his fists into the air once he reaches the overworld only to look back and Eurydice’s still in the shade . My interpretation is that it’s following the version of the myth where Orpheus makes it out of the underworld but Eurydice has only taken one step forward/isn’t fully in the overworld when Orpheus turns back (he looks back too soon essentially)

anyway Dónal Finn’s If It’s True changed my life justice for Grace Hodgett Young she deserved a standing ovation at Flowers (I would’ve started it but one of the Fates triggered the next song before I worked up enough courage </3) and I am so glad that we’re getting a west end recording because I truly believe that everyone should hear Melanie La Barrie as Hermes at least once in their life

Home [Thomastair ft. Jordelia]

here is my long-procrastinated Thomastair fic! It's a bit short, but dw! I have plans to write more fics in the future! (I take requests 😁)

Tag: @edwinspaynes

Thomas woke up to the sound of groaning coming from the other side of the bed.

Alastair rolled closer to him, his head resting next to Thomas’s face, his dark hair tickling his nose.

Thomas chuckled. Seeing him like this, with his guard down and happier than he had ever been before, was always his favorite part of the day.

“Good morning.” He said, rolling over.

Alastair scoffed sleepily. “A morning is never good.”

Thomas wrapped his arms around him and nestled his face into his shoulder. “With you, it is.”

His face reddened. “Damn you, Lightwood.”

They laid like this for some time, Thomas’s arms around Alastair, both drifting in and out of sleep, basking in the comforting warmth of each other. Eventually, though, they both heard crying, and had to get up.

He smiled as he got out of bed and headed to the washroom. As he freshened up, he could hear Zachary Arash from his nursery, having just woken up from his slumber and extremely displeased. Sona was at a Clave meeting in Idris and had left him in Thomas and Alastair’s care.

Alastair was an excellent brother. Due to Elias’s parenting, he had taken it upon himself to ensure that Zachary would never have to experience such trauma. Already, he was learning to walk, and had even said his first word (mama). Sona was delighted, and thus surrendered him to their care. Besides, Cordelia and James would have their own child soon. It’s not like there was anyone else fit for the job.

Matthew was on his travel year, headed to Paris, then London, then Reykjavík. James would be a father soon, and it took everything in Thomas to not think about where Christopher could have been.

He headed to the kitchen, where Alastair was preparing breakfast.

“Hello, Zachary.” He cooed, while Alastair rolled his eyes.

They sat down at the table, Thomas buttering a roll, Alastair sipping coffee, and Zachary fussing quietly.

“I never understood how you can tolerate that.” Thomas motioned towards his cup of coffee. “It’s awful.”

Alastair disagreed. “It’s an acquired taste,” He said. “It’s fine.”

Thomas shook his head as Zachary fussed. Alastair placed him in his lap and began calming the toddler, attempting to soothe him.

“Shall we head to Cordelia’s place after this?” Asked Alastair. “She’s due at any moment, and it’d be great to talk to her and James before they have their daughter.”

Thomas smiled. “Zachary would be delighted to have a new friend.”

After breakfast, they commuted to Curzon Street by carriage, Zachary waving out the window and babbling the entire trip there. Alastair held him with a parentlike yet childish manner, and Thomas felt like his heart would explode every time he looked at him.

“Zachary,” He remarked, hoisting him up, “As much as the citizens love to see you greet them with morning joy, my arms are screaming in pain in a way that is neither loving nor joyous.”

Finally, they rolled to a stop at Curzon Street.

Before they could knock, a very pregnant Cordelia opened the door, her hand helping support her belly.

“Layla,” Alastair said. “You look awfully big.”

She gasped playfully. “Alastair, you know that you’re not supposed to say that to a woman.”

James appeared behind her, an arm wrapping around her waist and resting lightly on her stomach.

“Thomas and Alastair,” He said, “What excellent timing. My parents left not an hour ago.” James peered curiously at them. “What brings you here?”

“Just thought we’d drop by before all of your time is riddled with screaming and crying.” Thomas replied, motioning to Cordelia.

She smiled, then winced as her other hand flew to her belly. “She’s a fighter.”

Cordelia continued to smile, however Thomas noted the slight grimace peeking through. She was extremely pregnant, and as she ushered them into the house, he noticed that her feet were swollen.

“Cordelia,” He said. “Should you be walking?”

James sighed. “I told her that she should be in bed, but she won’t listen to me.”

“Nonsense.” Cordelia said. “I can handle myself. I’m perfectly capable-”

She let out a small gasp and squeezed her eyes shut.

Alastair coughed pointedly. “You were saying?”

James ushered her to the sitting room, where she plopped down in an armchair. James took a seat on the couch next to her, leaving Thomas and Alastair to squeeze onto a loveseat. Zachary, the little traitor, settled in next to his uncle James, causing Alastair to disappointedly sigh. Out of habit, Thomas put his arm around him as Cordelia sighed in relief.

“My feet are killing me.” She complained.

“She’s due any moment now, according to Risa.” James said.

Alastair relaxed in Thomas’s grasp and subconsciously leaned his head on his shoulder. “I can imagine.”

Thomas lightly hit him. Alastair scoffed as he settled in closer to him.

“Rude.”

After their visit, they decided to head back to their flat. Zachary was already asleep, and Thomas and Alastair decided to retire to bed early.

They laid awake in bed, Alastair’s head on Thomas’s chest, rising and falling with every breath. A strand of his dark hair tickled his chin, and Thomas batted it away.

After all these years in the dark, all those days of longing and loneliness, the days of yearning and despair, this was it.

This was home.

Music Mondays #7

I usually do albums but I currently have a single rotating around inside my head so I figured now's as good a time as any to break the pattern

Disco Snails

Vulfmon (ft. Zachary Barker)

Genres: Funk, Soul, Jazz pop Funky little song about snails that love disco. Effervescent. Off the upcoming album "Dot" from Vulfmon, a.k.a. Jack Stratton, founding member of funk band Vulfpeck, from which I'll probably recommend an album next because they've just got a really great sound
