TAYLOR RUSSELL at the premiere of “Bones and All” at the AFI Fest Film Festival on November 5th 2022 wearing LOEWE

Taylor always gives us something fun and different while attending red carpets. I wouldn’t be surprised if she continues to wear more Loewe, since she opened their fashion show in September.

I thought this was a super intriguing look. I really loved how glossy and styled her hair was. It gave a very vintage look, that I thought worked well with the dress.

I think the dress was a great choice for Taylor. I thought it had a very sexy look to it, and that’s something Taylor can pull off really well. I loved the open back and sides. It was very sexy, but not overtly so. I also loved the black bow detail on the front. Overall, another impressive look from Taylor Russell.

I made a new glam for my WoL and I am obsessed with it!

I went to bed way too late as I was playing with this.

i really would like to know what would be alucard reaction to a goth reader and what would be his thoughts on their style and the music they listen to!! ❤️❤️

really love your works btw!!

Alucard x Goth! Reader

Warnings: none

Immediatly thought you were the rogue vampire he and Seras were tracking down, and had one hand on his gun.

Why else would you be wearing only black from head to toe in broad daylight?

It was 6:30pm.

Seras had to quickly explain the concept of goth fashion, and how 'walking the path of darkness' is also an aesthetic, along with a vampiric lifestyle.

Alucard is happily surprised, having only ever spent time around God-fearing humans who would mistake a Hot Topic for a satanist church.

Imagine his surprise when you turn out to be their contact for the mission, having witnessed the rogue vamp acting super sus while being a regular at your favourite nightclub.

When people started going missing week after week, last seen at the entrance to the club, you knew the wannabe Edward Cullen sleazebag had something to do with it.

You walk the two vampires into the club just before opening to show them around, Skeletal Family and The Cult already blaring through the speakers as the bar sets up for the night.

"It doesn't matter if we all die. Ambition in the back of a black car. In a high building, there is so much to do. Going home time, a story on the radio."

Yeah, Alucard digs it.

Discussing the recent victims, you've already come to the conclusion that the rogue is targeting new kids to the scene, teens and young adults who were just getting into goth culture themselves.

Basically, Alucard and Seras were targeting an undead nark gatekeeper.

Alucard admires your smarts and obervational skills, given that you recognized the target without any help from the experts, but you reassure them that they'll know the vamp when they see him.

Before the club opens, you take Seras behind the bar and force her to go through the Lost n' Found bin to suit up. While her military cosplay hugged her in all the right places, the blue and white were going to make her stick out like a sore thumb.

You reassure Alucard that he's already dressed to impress, and that no one will be any wiser that he was new at the club.

"Will my attire not attract any unwanted attention?" he asks you with a smile, as you help Seras with her makeup in the washroom.

"You will have so many bitches humping your leg, you're going to have trouble shaking them off when the vamp breaks into a run. So perhaps you could lose the hat and goggles," you suggest, squeezing Seras' chin as you force a fake septum around her nose.

As the club opens up to the street, in flows a tidle wave of black lace, sequins and leather. Alucard has never felt more at home, and Seras has never felt so uncomfortable around humans in her life.

Just as you said, it takes the two vamps less than half an hour to spot their target. Cake faced, glammed up with tacky chrome, and biting throats at the bar while patrons think he's just some kinky shmuck with some really authentic fake-fangs.

He's not even trying to be subtle.

Alucard and Seras manage to lead him to the mens bathroom, where they have fun pushing the prick around, treating him worse than the poor kids he 'napped and killed.

You stand at the door, not letting anyone in, and telling them that "staff are setting up a gore-fest theme as promo for the new Saw movie."

With how efficient the mission went, compared to the usual goose chase they go through, Alucard keeps your number in case they have another vamp lose in the city.

You already have a list of possible rogues at other goth hangouts you're familiar with, and are more than happy to help keep your community safe.

However, you find Alucard contacting you more so out of boredom than for work, not that you mind in the slightest.

He shows you the real nitty-gritty of the dark side, how shadows and death bend to his every whim without question, given he is the rightful King of the undead.

Alucard finds your style practical and unique, but thinks you can do better than nightclubs and festivals. It doesn't take long for him to take you under his wing as a Hellsing human associate, acting as a bridge between vampires and the living to communicate on undead disturbances.

You become his right hand, not a secretary, but his human voice and confidante. And no one dares ever question your clothes or makeup whenever you walk into a room, because they know the shadows that follow you aren't just for show anymore.

Hiii it’s me again ~ Alright this here is very self indulgent <<33 My request of the day is: Could you write for Bill, could be 2023 Bill, before or both as a sort of evolution, with a lover that is also in the lgbtq+ community. I genuinely feel like having that acceptance around him, especially coming from a partner that’s also in the same boat would be so good for him. This goes without saying that queer x queer chaos is one of my favourite things to see 💅

Have a great day & take care <3 Thank you for feeding us so well lately oh myyy

THIS IS SO GOOOD AHH. I was literally just thinking about this. as a bisexual person myself, i know the struggles of not really relating to people around you and how invalidated people make you feel. queer x queer relationships of any sort make me so happy!!

2023 Bill Kaulitz with a queer s/o headcannons

•he would be so damn happy that theres finally someone who fully understands him

•because while his friends and family do support him and try to understand, they will never fully know what its like

•I really do think he would benefit from a queer partner

•both of you know that you will always have someone who understands and accepts you

•he would always come to talk to you if anyone ever made him feel invalidated and he makes sure that you know you can come to him too

•he would always post about how far both of you have come in your self discovery journey and how proud he is of you

•if you’re anything like me, then you would get very protective of the people you love. So it anyone EVER said anything homophobic to either of you, Bill would have to physically hold you back so that you don’t get yourself in trouble

•if you didn’t have a supportive family then his family would gladly take you in with open arms

•they love you just as much as Bill does so you always have a safe space to go to

•Tom and Heidi are both of your guys biggest supporters

•yall are absolutely gonna be the wildest people at pride fests

•he would dress up in full glam and would love if you did too!

•Bill just has so much energy and such a big heart so hes got lots of love to spread

•his fans call you guys their parents

After their surprise win in the 2023 Simovision Song Contest, where they represented Windenburg, and a hasty change of drummer, Tod! Tod! Tod! starts their Summer Tour with an appearance on the stage of the 2023 Edgewave Fest. Never would have they hoped to have the opportunity to perform in such a prestigious festival. Even less being the opening act! What a (sweet) pressure!

They are still just a small band who, not so long ago played in front of tiny crowds mainly composed of their friends and family, but they are ready to rock the world with their post-apocalyptic inspired hard rock/heavy metal/glam punk tunes.

Ready to pogo and head-bang? Here... We... Go! AAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

I haven't posted my face on this blog in a while, but I couldn't resist cross-posting my new casual glam for Ahtyn based on one of my Fan Fest looks. 🧚🏼‍♀️

[jaycethepancake]

OUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH new monster high stuffssssssss

God Catty is so pretty I love her and she's literally gonna be a day one snag for me. Number 1. Best girl.

I ALMOST love core refresh Frankie, I love her design but the leak before they added all that magenta was soooooooo much better. Like pink can look great on Frankie but they literally splashed SUCH an intense pink. I do really like the doll tho, maybe I could reroot her and figure something out for the pink tank top...

Refresh Cleo is so cute!! Her original outfit was good but this kinda feels more... Glam? There's also just something I love about the look of that sheer belt thing over the skirt.

LAGOONA REFRESH YES FINALLY. I kinda wish her hair wasn't just blonde, but I can see how that might put things out of balance. She's so punky and cool looking! Lagoona is a girlie that I've wanted to like so bad because she's so cool in theory, but I never vibed with the outfits they put her in (aside from spa day but tbh that's because it was so simple). With this they're cooking so hard omg.

Monster Fest Frankie isn't quite my cup of tea, there's a LOT I love but the way they used the neons is a bit much for me.

Monster Fest Cleo is looking super good! I'm not sure I'll get her, this one doesn't stand out too much, but it's definitely a good Cleo.

Awwwe she's so cute!! I love the moons, the purple, the fluff! I haven't really found a g3 Clawdeen that speaks to me (Monster Ball came close) but I think she's gonna do it! Finally, I feel so bad having everyone but Clawdeen lol

Lagoona eating it up again! The prototype had some details I preferred (I swear the prototypes always have darker colors that get changed to pink or something) but those are so minor compared to the whole package here. I REALLY love this Lagoona!!!

Welcome Committee Frankie has had stock photos for longer than these others, but I felt bad for not liking either Frankie here and wanted to include her because I LOVE It. The more subtle use of the neons, AND the fact that there's pride colors mixed in? So great.

Even Harold is disillusioned with Hollyweird?

Hi Skippy & Friends-Pilgrim checking in with some thoughts on the latest hi-jinks from the Harkle’s & company. How typical of narc/grifter Diva to think she can outdo all the other mega stars in the most elite court-side seats, looking up to see her mug on the jumbo screen! How amazing a Getty photographer just happened to be positioned exactly at the same level as their private suite, having a click fest with her face, while she acts oh so shy, in her “glam” outfit, surrounded by her slobby staff, stuffing their faces. The dynamics are hilarious! One headline said they returned home to their LA mansion…?

Full-face surgery would take months to recover from, not weeks, causing much swelling…hmmm…perhaps new dentures and that “skinny shot”, which makes most who try it very nauseous because it is for diabetics. Her legs are extremely thin and that is saying a lot for her…so they could be cheating their way to being super thin which at a tipping point becomes a health hazard. The body is forced to tap into muscle tissue for energy, which starts the physical dangers of being anorexic, but you don’t have wrinkles or jowls.

The DailyStar says Harold is thinking about returning to the UK for 6 months of the year….could he have finally figured out what he so casually tossed away? Observing up close & personally, how real people live…even those with massive wealth…just doesn’t have the ultimate, magic touch that comes from being royal. Also, just because you can hang out with the super rich or successful, doesn’t mean you can ride on their coattails. CA. is a viper pit of defensive egos.

Perhaps, KCIII has him on the hook and is slowly reeling him in, hoping to land him onboard, so to speak. What about the invisible kids? Will they be transplanted every 6 months? Will ILBW be along for the ride too? GAG A RAMA for the royal relatives and the UK public! Today there was a photo of the psychic goat nibbling on the paper that said they would stay to together. LOL

Finally-The excellent artistic efforts have been really funny! So glad there are lots of us attending art class these days. It is very cathartic and I am working on a new one…over and out for now.

They are just boring…..they are nobodies….a comedy duo….ohhh, I can’t wait for your new artwork!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Some of my favorite Lostwave Songs - Solved and Unsolved (Part 2)

THAT'S RIGHT BABY IT'S BACK!!! For those who missed part 1, you can check out my lostwave gush-fest here.

Solved -

Found A Place by The Jazz Hipsters - Spooky vibes but very cool. Unfortunately this band hasn't seem to release anything else.

Boogie Home by Billy Workman - I love me some glam rock.

Summer's End by Prince of the Blood - The entire album, Portsmouth, is honestly so good, especially the titular song.

Creepy Crawlies by Bing Hitler with the Chain Gang - Not the best band name, but was a stage name of a Scottish comedian named Craig Ferguson. Picturing Shrek singing while listening to this is highly recommend.

Maniac Laughing by Johnny Cohen - HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA-

Oceans of Time by Al Bowlly - I love me some crunchy old music.

Mental by Tripp7 - This song slaps, it's also one of the few available on Spoofy so go check it out on there!

Weekend by Charlatan - Lovin' that sax. I also recommend En Walki Talki Man.

Take Off by Kigoy - This song sounds like it crawled out of an abandoned subway station and I mean that in the best way possible I love this song. Unfortunately it seems Kigoy only really did two songs, this and this one here that's worth checking out.

At the Lightworks by Ellie Greenwich - Yes, the Ellie Greenwich! I assume this song was solved in like five seconds. Delightfully 60s.

Paragon by NuKeMOuT - This song goes hard, feel free to screenshot.

Magic Summer by Captains - Lovin' that sax (again.) Also I love this lady's voice.

Unsolved -

"Johnny" - I can't see a sail boat without thinking of this song

"Treadmill of Time" - Possibly identified as a song by a band called Memorybank. Everyone says it has Depeche Mode vibes (I think originally it was passed of as an outtake of there's though it obviously isn't) but it gives me more TMBG vibes.

"Friends" - May sound like it's from a kid's show but it's VERY NOT. It's actually from, like, the opposite of that.

"Let's Get Up" - Another song from a porn film. Steals a lot of its lyrics from Dancing on the Ceiling by Lionel Ritchie but is actually better.

"I Was A Fool In Love" - One that's weirdly grown on me over the past few weeks???

"Trip To Rio" - The intro is honestly one of the catchiest things I've ever heard, period. I hope we find the full version soon.

"Poor Christmas" - The lostwave Christmas song, and I love it for that. I'm not at all religious I'm just weird and dig Christmas music.

"CIA" - Sounds like it's from a movie, it's got that cinematic vibe to it.

"Leylo Lo La" - Possibly a cover of a cover...?

"Ai wa Subete" - I love me some Japanese lostwave.

Might do a part 3 or a other songs by lostwave artists and where to support them (obviously the latter can only really apply to people with solved songs).

Glam Fest Sydney

[broomsticks]

find me some crack (fic)

please

WHEEZING at this one -- as well as HP crackfic fest -- luna and ginny go on a hunt for the hockey mascot Gritty! more in common after all (3k, G).

i did not intend for this to be winter sports femslash edition, but i had to jump on this astoria/luna/ginny winter olympics 2018 I Could Do That by yrfrndfrnkly (7k, T), one of my favorite lighthearted femslash writers!

--

i do not understand what it is with snupin being the ship of choice for great crackfic, but aside from Animals by busaikko (sex with a snake! goat!bellatrix!) i also enjoyed The 500 Socks of Severus Snape by them, and this other orphaned snupin Loving The Enemy (3k, M):

"LOVING THE ENEMY: He is the Half-Blood Prince in exile. He is the dashing werewolf spy sent to capture him." karasu_hime drew a lovely romance novel cover with that title and copy, so I wrote a cracktastic story to go along with it. Ridiculous crack, and utterly, utterly AU. -- You are warned for crack, vocabulary words, and turgid man-spears. I should probably not drink so much coffee. I should probably not have been an English major. I should definitely never have read all those epistolary 18thC novels.

dying, deliberate purple prose badfic is an inside joke i will never get tired of.

--

speaking of inside jokes, also read and enjoyed Backstage [+podfic] by picascribit (8k, T). What do the Potterverse characters get up to when they're not "acting" in canon or fanfic? Come visit Remus Lupin's dressing room, sing karaoke with Voldemort and the giant squid, and debate canon vs. fanon with Remus and Sirius.

loved all the fandom in-jokes in this, lmao

Post-Hogwarts Remus elbowed him sharply. "Shut up, Camp Remus," he said, rolling his eyes. "Honestly, the girls who write you could stand to learn a thing or two about gay men." "It's Glam Remus, actually, and there's nothing wrong with the way they write me," said the glitter-eyed Remus in a huffy tone, taking a crumpled cigarette out of the pocket of his tight satin flares and dangling it from limp fingers. "I just choose to express my sexuality in a less yawn-worthy fashion than the rest of you boring tossers." Post-Hogwarts Remus tilted his head in acknowledgement. "Fair enough, but you shouldn't smoke. You're a bad influence on our young counterparts."

omg this was delightful and i'm going to read it eight times more.

never have i ever - fic rec version
