Hey Everyone! It's been a while, but I have music to share. I've been tagged by @direwombat, @simplegenius042, @cassietrn, @voidika, and possibly others that I'm forgetting, lol.
Because I'm incapable of not working on twenty different things, I have a few different songs for you.
First up, I did some editing recently for a rooney/yori smutfic, and I had Rain by Sleep Token playing the whole time. I'll probably pull the title from this song.
And I know, I know the way that it goes
You get what you give, you reap what you sow
And I can see you in my fate
And I know, I know I am what I am
The mouth of the wolf, the eyes of the lamb
So darling, will you saturate?
And just like the rain
You cast the dust into nothing
And wash out the salt from my hands
So touch me again
I feel my shadow dissolving
Will you cleanse me with pleasure?
Second, I went back to the Relic Malfunction fic in Rooney's Relic AU. I stopped working on it for a while because I wasn't happy in the direction it was going. But I've picked it up recently again, and I think I've finally found a direction I'm happy with. For this one, I've been listening to the Foundations of Decay by MCR.
You must fix your heart
And you must build an altar where it swells
When the storm it gains, and the sky it rains
Let it flood, let it flood, let it wash away
And as you stumble through your last crusade
Will you welcome your extinction in the morning rays?
Lastly, I've also finally nailed down the first draft of the parade fic, which is the one where Rooney helps V and Takemura escape Smasher and Co after the parade for Saburo. (Predictably, Yorinobu learns of their betrayal and is not happy. I'll have more of a summary on WIP Wednesday.) I've been listening to The Ides of March by Silverstein, and it's absolutely perfect for this fic. I'm definitely taking the title from this song. (It's one of my favorite Silverstein songs.)
And every step I take, I stay in the same place
I can't begin to start again, why can't I just be perfect?
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
And I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
this wwrideul is having absolutely feral and filthy thoughts rn! JEON WONU AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BARKKKKKK AUFFFFFFF AUFFFFF WOOOOFFFFF WOOOFFFFF AURGHHHHHHHHH
im not properly following sword af bc i never finished the first season, but i DID go and listen to the bit where angela (as bug) presumably tries to go for a kiss with amanda (as delores) and. MAN. Amanda's reaction to it....... the "whoa whoa whoa" and amanda's voice getting that kind of breathless quality that it sometimes gets when shes really amused or shes laughing really hard or overwhelmed in videos.......... mannnnn. sets off my rpf brain So Bad. Not implying anything about the actual interaction as much as. Thinking about the delicious potential in the fake rpf universe..... I'm so goddamn weak for the concept of RPF Amanda who flirts incessantly and is so confident in it and loves, loves flirting with Angela specifically- in part because she never expects anything to come of it, (for better or for worse) and Angela's flustered reactions or tendency to not play into the bit make it safe in a backwards way. Amanda flirts, Angela rolls her eyes/commits a bit but always bails out safely, etc. (Amanda keeps flirting, maybe harder, maybe it gets more and more ridiculous and over the top, and maybe she should- stop. But. She can't.)
And then Angela flirts back unexpectedly or spontaneously, and its like. Implosion. Function shutdown. The absolute charismatic force of nature that is Amanda brought to a halt, because hey wait NO, that's not supposed to happen. Its such a delicious concept. rpf brain go brrrrr.
There's the angst side if it, if you want- Amanda silently convinced it wont happen or somewhat in denial about her own feelings, or doing some kind of mental gymnastics where the flirting is as close as she'll get. (Angela convinced it's not real and having mixed feelings about it as a result.)
And then they're doing something and for one reason or another Angela initiates and Amanda's brain goes WHOA WHOA WHOA- and Amanda's charisma and composure go sideways even though for anyone else she could play it off so easily. there's so much comedic potential. delicious potential. etc. 👌
