I seriously do not know how to make this coherent. I think if we just dive in not expecting it, it won't feel so disjointed.
This was one of the most magical weekends of my life, by far the best one this year so far and I think it will hold up pretty damn well in the long run. I am so, so happy that I didn't end up selling my Saturday ticket, despite it being an upper level seated ticket. I was afraid I'd feel very removed and that the view would be obscured, but it was all but.
Tumblr media
Like that is pretty dang good.
Didn't queue for overly long either day, and met some really, really lovely people. If you feel like you at any point talked to me, hi, hello, I am so happy to have met you!!
Openers were really good, I enjoyed both Pilvet pilvet and JC Stewart, and I hope to hear more from both in the future.
Saturday's setlist was a bit of a shock, ngl. No ASTP? No NGVOT? No Barve?? On the other hand: my soul ascended during the Gola opening and I was very emotional during Vem da greš. It's been an anthem for me since last fall, and getting to experience it live, even from my seat, was just... yeah. A Lot. We'd gotten folded paper butterflies to hold up if they played Metulji and it was one of the most beautiful renditions I have heard of it, with Jan on the piano, Bojan singing and a sea of paper butterflies floating. I could be wrong, but Bojan seemed a bit taken by the whole thing in a positive way.
I had maybe had a feeling that Everybody's waiting would be a song that would come into its own right live and it definitely did. This weekend really made me fall even more in love with it, and though Bojan was clearly nervous about it, it was nice to see a bit of humour around the performance, with Jan having to help play the intro notes.
The two new songs they premiered on Saturday were such bangers, I have not been able to get them out of my head. Between Šta bih ja and Bluza, I am leaning more towards Bluza. There is something about it that gives me the same kind of emotional response as Vem da greš, but they are both going to be on heavy rotation, the sound is just... chef's kiss for both.
I know there had been a lot of hype and expectations re: Käärijä and the possibility of him doing a song with them. As much as it would have been fun, I'm actually happy he didn't, and simply got to enjoy the show as a spectator. Getting Häärijä as Hojan was more than enough, I think I pulled something laughing so hard.
We got the band out for a second encore (after Carpe Diem and Novi val), and they did Šta bih ja again, and it made my heart so fucking happy to see them so excited and bouncy.
For Sunday, I had early entrance, and let me tell you... when Bojan announced they were soundchecking ASTP... my soul left me, I was fucking LEVITATING. Getting NGVOT with Kris after that (following a very random rendition of Ring of Fire by Bojan) was just perfection. I also completely froze when Jure came over and talked to the girls in front of me. Like I fully just glitched, couldn't make myself speak, couldn't make myself take a picture, just stood there like the personification of bluescreening. That sunshiney fucker has too much power.
They switched up the setlist for Sunday and as sad as I was at losing out on Vem da greš up close, I felt more than happy about instead getting Barve oceana and Padam, as well as another new song. Setlist said it was called Schlager, Bojan said it might be named Behind Those Eyes OR Galaxy of Me, so it's going to be fun to see what they settle on finally. Either way, the song was a whole damn vibe, and I hope people going to the rest of the tour will get to enjoy both these and other new songs.
Tumblr media
Padam had me up in my feels HARD. Again with Jan accompanying on the piano, it was just a really raw and intimate rendition that hit me right in my soul. I've had "Zdaj padam in padam, a me bo kdo ujel?" on my letterboard at home for the last two months, and hearing this line... ooft, my heart.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Having seen recordings of Novi val live is NOTHING compared to experiencing it live. It is one of the best songs out there and the chorus hits me every. single. time. There is something so sweet and gentle about the setup of it, Kris on guitar, Bojan singing and the rest of them just enjoying the moment, taking everything in.
I think the thing that I'll ultimately cherish the most is the easy atmosphere, the connection the band had with the audience, and the fact that I got to be there and that I got to do all of this with friends. This weekend has been a beacon for me since they announced it and since I got the tickets. Going to a JO gig has been on my bucketlist. I got to cross that off and have so much fun while doing it, and you can bet your fucking ass I will try to get tickets to Ruisrock this summer.

Do You Dislike Curtis
Does he get on my nerves sometimes? Sure. Have I threatened to push him off a roof if he keeps bringing up the Handbook? Also yes.
But listen, just between you and I?
Curtis is incredibly talented and smart, a lot more than people give him credit for. He has a unique way of solving problems by thinking completely outside of the box, and he's creative and funny, and I mess with him because I love him.
I could never, ever dislike Curtis.
He's the greatest br— Uh, friend, I mean. He's the greatest friend anyone could ask for.
Curtis is going to make an amazing Head Elf one day, I just know it.
Yours, Bernard

Kiss Roulette - Accepting - @impercre
Tumblr media
40. An impulsive kiss
Five years is an awfully long time for a child turned teenager. It seems like everything moves in slow motion. Days are never ending and nights are filled with dreaming, hoping for a tomorrow filled with surprise and wonder. She's an active, curious child turned thoughtfully quiet teen. She's ever seeking, reading whenever she could, in secret if she must, her head in the clouds far more often than not. But there was training, years of it, that had stolen her youthful playfulness and the outward displays of excitement and joy. She's a lady, a princess and a Bene Gesserit. Through the prana-bindu she was still learning exact control over herself but she's wasn't there yet. Had many more years yet.
Perhaps though.. They should have pushed her harder she'd later find herself wondering. The thought sour in her head. As sour as the rejection on her tongue.
Her first kiss, by all standards set in books, was meant to be magical. She had known since she was small who she'd gift it to. There was only one boy who had ever caught her eye. A proud, stern boy with fire in his eyes and poison in his soul. A boy she had been able to win over before long. One who smiled like the sun and laughed like the roll of thunder. How she loved him even then. But five years separated them now. From boy to man he had changed and as she stood timidly before him the night they were reunited she realized with sudden clarity that to kiss him would change them both beyond reason. And yet..
Stars silently burnt above them, the terrace overseeing the gardens they had played in as children below them, she was more interested in his stories from home. He wasn't forth coming, silent and rigid, trained for warfare like most men she knew. A man not, a still prince but not the boy who had left five years ago to never return for her.
She had missed him. She told him as much, before she could wait no longer and onto tiptoe she lifted to give him the sweetness of her lips, a taste of sugar and honey. A temptation she didn't know at the time would begin his undoing. A gift that would lead them both down a dark road. That night was the first of many cracks in her heart and before he trusted her, before he trusted himself with her, both of their hearts would bleed and break.

It's done. 'Father, Forgive Me' is the three chapter continuation of 'Blasphemous. All chapters have been uploaded and there is a short playlist of songs I used for inspiration while I was writing (in the pre-chapter notes). Please be mindful of tags and read them before you read through the fic. I hope you enjoy this one; it was fun!

(for the ask game) taddy, what r ur thoughts on jay? <33
Jay?? Uh, I don't really care that much about his character, he's just so boring to me. I guess I can say wildbrain is his best era, I'm especially glad they took away the inventor side of him and gave it to the others, he's much better off just being the cute lovable member of the team. Besides, his jokes are much funnier in those seasons than before.

I've had a beast of a cold for the last few days, but I wanted to get this out before the new year! while I've sort of made my peace with my first take on Lilia's UM poster, I really wanted to do a version with the new context that chapter 6 gave us. because. c'mon.

You... didn't think that the ring Pomni found was some kind of one-off example for the showcase of Ragatha's abilities now, did you?
