"Midnight Rain" II - Rockstar!Ellie Williams x Popstar!Reader
an - wow i did not expect you guys to like this idea so much, if you haven't read part one i would go ahead and read it first before reading this part!! Enjoy!
I don't consent to anyone sharing my work anywhere else, I only post my writing on this tumblr account, do not steal my work
Tags: Fem!popstar!reader, rockstar!Ellie, we're burning slow here my loves, fake dating trope, no outbreak au, angst, slight anxious!reader, Ellie is a little bit of a player and kind of an asshole sorry pookies, lightly proof read, listen to "lucky" by britney spears it literally inspired this entire idea
So apparently you lied to yourself and no one forgot it happened
Two months. It had been two months since you had seen that article and left Ellie’s hotel room, and people couldn’t seem to let it go.
Edits of the two of you filled your for you page, fans brought signs to your shows asking about you and Ellie, and honestly, you were sick of it.
It didn’t help that your management thought it was a great idea because it gained traction for both you and Ellie’s fan bases.
So now you sit in a meeting with Ellie and your managers as they discuss another appearance from the two of you together.
This was your least favorite part of being a pop star, the fame, and your fans were amazing, but most of your choices weren’t your own; they were for the “brand” your management wanted to maintain.
“Sounds good to me” Ellie speaks up, breaking you from your thoughts as you look at her like she has two heads and scoff
“I’m sorry but weren’t you the one telling me that you had your precious reputation to uphold and couldn’t be tied down with anyone?”, you could feel your anger at the situation growing but knew you should keep yourself from completely losing it
“We both benefit from the attention, that’s more important to me than some silly reputation sweetheart,” she says with that infuriating smirk that lets you think for a moment that her words are truthful
“Fine,” you say, “But this is only going to be a thing for a few months, after my tour is over we are over, got it?” 
Your managers go over the agreements and discuss appearances before the both of you sign, basically binding yourselves to each other for the next six months.
Tumblr media
The first appearance was simply Ellie coming to one of your shows
She hangs out with her bandmates Dina and Jesse in the VIP box where they are visible to the fans attending but are secure enough so they don’t get mobbed and can enjoy the show comfortably.
You make sure to direct most lyrics in the more romantic songs on your set list toward Ellie and can tell that your fans are eating it up.
After the show, your manager escorts you backstage where Ellie is waiting, noticing that it’s visible by some fans lingering in the upper levels.
Your manager pushes you toward Ellie and you plaster on a fake smile, running up to her and hugging her tightly.
Ellie kisses your cheek lovingly and it sends a jolt of sadness through you as you look into her eyes, wishing the look of care on her face was real.
“Smile, people are watching” she whispers into your ear while letting her hand slip to your waist and letting the other cup your jaw to tilt your face to hers.
You shake off the creeping feeling of anxiety at so many cameras on the two of you and smile softly, letting Ellie lead you into a quick kiss before parting and being led back to your dressing room by your manager.
Tumblr media
You get back to your hotel that night and scroll mindlessly through your feed of constant videos from tonight, some of you performing, some of Ellie in the VIP box, and plenty of when the two of you met after the show.
You scroll through the comments of fans raving about how happy the two of you look with tears in your eyes
If only they knew
an - I listened to my sad girl hours playlist for this, I hope you enjoyed it!! Now go drink water you girl kissers xoxo

Everyone but You
✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧
no crash au
part 2 at some point..
was listening to everyone but you by the front bottoms while writing this so take that as u please!
✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧
shauna shipman—shauna fucking shipman, like #6 on the WHS soccer team, jackie taylor’s bestfriend—bitch to everyone except apparently you is pulling you away from a party, you!—
how the fuck did this happen?
lunch 3 days pre-party—that’s when things began getting weird, lottie matthew’s (who to the general public of Wiskayok high—is the second most popular girl, succeeded by non other than jackie taylor) comes up to you, you’re nose deep in a book, a jane austen book to be specific, and to be really specific ‘Pride and Prejudice’, you’ve got your headphones on, blasting whatever playlist spotify thinks you should listen to when you read consisting of mellow-sad-angsty songs; when suddenly you see a hand waving in front of you, you jump and set the book down before placing one of your headphones off your ear, only to realize it’s lottie matthew’s trying to get your attention. she questions you about your book but you can tell she’s not really interested—anyways, you out of everyone get an invite to some kind of party that she’s throwing on friday, invite by lottie only. you obviously agree—you’d be choosing even more social suicide if you didn’t (you’re already a loser)—with a simple yet unsure “okay” lottie nods and writes her address on your forearm, telling you 8 o’clock on the dot.
what the fuck?
2 days pre-party: vanessa palmer (she’d kill you for calling her that) and taissa turner sit at your lunch table, you don’t think you’ve ever seen one without the other following right behind (usually van following) anyways—tai mentions something about the party, and you simply answer with a “yeah, lottie invited me, i’ll be there” in which van replies with an “oh shit! i didn’t really think lottie would go through with it—you know for sh-“ tai puts her hand over vans mouth before giving a simple awkward smile and muttering a “see you there!”
weird, so fucking weird.
1 more day until the party you think to yourself in non other than english class, which by some weird coincidence you share with #6 of the WHS yellowjackets, shauna shipman. no one really likes her in this class—you don’t know why, i mean she can be abrasive and stick to her guns, but the girl knows her stuff. she’s never been rude to you. always answering anything with sincerity and kindness—why you get this honor? you have no idea. today in english class you pull out yet another jane austen book, this time it’s ‘Emma’, popping your headphones over your head and pressing play on that same spotify shuffle, you don’t even get a page in before you feel a tap on your shoulder, looking up, of course it’s her—shauna shipman, that red flannel on, those shorts—her hair tied up in that low ponytail, her bangs framing her face, her eyes—holy shit her brown eyes, you’d think she couldn’t hurt anything with those eyes—her lips, oh my god—
you’re struck out of your thoughts by her laughing and saying something like “you weren’t listening were you?” with an awkward apology you take your headphones off and set the book down “what’d you say?” you say softly, scared to have any sense of rejection from the harshness you know she’s capable of, but she proves you wrong asking about the book your reading and saying something about “The classics” whatever you’re just astonished that she’s even talking to you and it’s not yelling.
fuck you’re in deep, you think.
the day of the fated party, it’s 7:30 you’re on your way to the matthew’s estate praying and hoping that everything goes fine, even asking the saints to make some exceptions. you roll up and park in the driveway that must span at least an acre, noticing that there are more cars than just yours and the expected soccer team, and that fact alone immediately calms your nerves. 7:55; you make your way to the door and before you can even make an attempt to knock, #9 jackie taylor, opens the door not even making an attempt to look at you before she steps outside, crashing right into you. of course this would happen to you, based purely on instinct you grip onto her waist to keep both of you upright, and of course because why wouldn’t this happen to you? shauna fucking shipman is at the door as it happens—she sees you grabbing onto jackie taylor in broad daylight? nightlight? whatever nothing matters.
why the fuck does this happen to you?

It’s time for music headcanons with the batfam, bc if I don’t get this out of my head and onto page, I’m going to implode.
Fave first, Dick is definitely a indie pop/indie rock kinda boy. Not just because I identify with that, but also bc he gives me those overly energetic, bubbly vibes, that I feel like only come from Grouplove, Vampire Weekend, and Adam Melchor. I also feel like he’s a Mitski and Boygenius kinda bitch, bc ough, boY, he has angst. Said angst can only be expressed through sad girl music, bc he will die before he ever expresses his feelings about anything to anyone.
NEXT we have Jason, I think he’s an emo ass boy, ngl, but specifically like folk punk. He listened to twin sized mattress one time, broke down crying, and hasn’t looked back. Also things like The Mountain Goats, PUP, or Modern Baseball. Ugh, I could make a whole ass playlist for this boy. If he’s with other ppl, I think he’d play something more mainstream of the emo genres, like Arctic Monkeys or The Strokes.
DAMIAN, I THINK, IS COMPLICATED. So, for one thing, he grew up in a weirdo environment, where they probably never listened to music, and if they did, it was “”tasteful”” music, for rich ppl. That, or it was culturally significant. So, I think I’m his exposure to music after moving in with Bruce, he started just absorbing absolutely all the music he could. Like, he’s an everything enjoyer. His spotify liked songs are a minefield, bc one second it’ll be playing Chet Baker, next it’s Viagra Boys, then some country shit, then Chopin, and then it’s Lil Nas X.
BABS, I think, would be a folk music/sad girl music enthusiast. She really likes Ryan Adams, Phoebe Bridgers, Hoizer, Mitski, etc. It’s something that she and Dick bonded over when they first started dating. I think with her, she appreciates the calm/slightly sad music bc she lives in a rlly crazy world, and she just wants to meditate a little when she’s sitting at that desk all day, trying to keep her family and friends alive.
Timmyyyyyy is a Kpop enjoyer. Sorry, I don’t make the rules. Specifically, he probably likes SEVENTEEN or ATEEZ a lot. He actively tries, every day of his life, to not stan any of the members, but it’s rlly hard when he’s had two hours of sleep in the past week, and Yoon was just really cute in that last interview. I also think he’s really into trap and pop. He knows all the lyrics to every recent song on the top 100 list.
Duke, I think is really into R&B. I think he’s amenable to pop/rock/rap, etc., but he really just wants something to belt out. Common occurrences are finding him in the kitchen, making an omelette, singing Amy Winehouse at the top of his lungs. If u catch him doing it tho, he gets rlly shy. His guilty pleasure is theatre music. He has to bribe his family to go see Little Shop of Horrors with him.
Stephanie has a 2000s-2010s pop addiction. Anything that makes her feel like Hannah Montana is her SHIT. She’s out here blasting Bubblegum Bitch and early Taylor Swift. You also can and will find her crying to sad One Direction songs. When she’s moody, she will unironically play My Chemical Romance. She understands pop punk a lil bit, but the lyrics tend to get male-manipulator-y, so she sticks with the bands she already knows.
Alfred likes 50s/60s jazz/pop. Frank Sinatra, Chet Baker, etc. It reminds him of home, and of his family. He also really likes old French music, like Joe Dassin. I’m ngl, I don’t know old music enough to add more to this one, but u get the idea 😭
BRUCE. Ugh. He’s definitely the kind of dad who never moved past the music of his childhood. He firmly believes that the Beatles is the best band of all time, and no one can convince him otherwise. I think he tends to gravitate towards the rock/goth end of 70s/80s music, so things like the Cure, New Order, maybe a lil bit of Siouxsie and the Banshees. His goth phase was INTENSE, Alfred can attest to this.
Edit: HOLY SHIT I CANT BELIEVE I FORGOT CASS 😭😭😭
Ok, Cass is defo a similar situation to Damian, grew up with literally silence, so music is a super new thing to her. But I think she really enjoys all kinds of genres. I think that especially instrumentals get her, bc it’s just noises that she can focus on, no lyrics to distract her from the sound. I think she also likes to “sing” along to said instrumentals, but mostly it’s just making noises to the same beat and sound, but it’s very off-key.

GET TO KNOW THE MUN.
Tumblr media
respond to the prompts out of character!
what made you pick up the current muse(s) you have? oh man. uh. i guess, following my url's general meaning, i choose to write muses on here that have defied their fates/expectations in some shape or form. this is true for more of my older muses on here, as i've definitely added some recently where i have to kinda twist that a bit. aside from that, i really just write muses that i can connect with on some level. my apparent calling is sad men who are prone to violence and are also incredibly sad/lonely. the mains i have floating in my head are usually there because it's the current media i'm consuming (i.e. star wars: the old republic). i could write long metas on why i adore all of my muses though. c':
is there anything you don’t like to write? uhh, you know. i'm actually pretty open to most things. i need some sort of action going on, regardless of the type, to keep interested i suppose. like, if there's a lot of conversation, i tend to get stuck. that's just because i struggle with it and i don't want to bore my partner, though. aside from that, pretty much any genre you throw at me, i'll be interested in writing.
is there anything you really enjoy writing? I'm a sucker for redemption au's, even if it takes thirty threads to get there. i enjoy writing the aftermath of a character's worst arc, and all of the guilt, pain, and sorrow that comes with it. so do i want to write arcann's redemption? yes. do i want to write about nihilus somehow healing from being a literal wound in the force? yes. (or even, writing who he was before malachor.) ragnar going back to being a farmer? please. all of it, yes. aside from that, i really, really enjoy hurt/comfort, violent/gore threads, general sci-fi adventure, and general fantasy adventure (the campfires, the fights, the enemies in between destinations, etc.)
how do you come up with headcanons?  it's kind of a mix between being inspired by outside sources, such as media, music, mututals, and things that pop into my head after hyperfixating about a muse for three straight hours or something. i do adopt headcanons/partial headcanons from other people, but like sparingly and if it's appropriate/i know them/have asked. most of the time i really just get hit in the face with them though.
do you write in silence or do you play music? i am someone that requires music to write. i need to drown out distractions however i can. i really struggle with being easily distracted (getting tested for adhd soon lol) because i can very easily lose a thought before i'm able to write it down. i find that with music i can focus better, and i have playlists that help with whatever mood i'm going for in the reply.
do you plan your replies or wing them? i usually just sort of write what comes to mind first and then, if i have questions about something, i'll either approach the other mun or write things in the tags. sort of referring to the previous question, i try to write my ideas down as soon as i see a reply, or i'll be prone to forgetting them.
do you enjoy shipping? yes, 1000% yes. i love all sorts of relationships, not only the romantic ones. i don't really get to write about platonic/friendships too often, but i really enjoy the times i can. that said, re: romantic ships, i'm usually on board if there's chemistry between muses. i also encourage other muns to approach me if they think they might want to ship because chances are, i'm already on board.
what’s your alias/name?  Lee
age?  old
birthday?  December 25th
favorite color?  silver, purple, black
favorite song?  i... don't think i can choose? there are all sorts of songs that hit me in the right way. i can tell you a song i'm listening to on repeat right now is The Wind Weeps Eleanor by American Murder Song.
last movie you watched?  Hagazussa: A Heathen's Curse, but I hope to go see Dune 2 this week.
last show you watched?  just started Shōgun and it's wonderful.
last song you listened to?  Dwamn by Tech N9ne 🫣 
favorite food?  fry bread! or a step further: navajo tacos.
favorite season?  winter
do you have a tumblr best friend? um i think i'm close to a few people on here, but the only one i know i can tag for sure is @vuulpecula starbuck has put up with my nonsense on here for years and somehow still talks to me lmfao we have the greatest and the worst ships and honestly i am always always always excited to write with her❤️❤️❤️
and idk if i should tag u because this is an rp meme and this is one of my rp blogs but @oolathurman is my other bestie and i've known and adored them for literal years so. yeah sflkjdslf❤️❤️❤️
TAGGED BY @valorums thank you<3
TAGGING @vuulpecula @riiese @hcxcd @fasciinating @juramentum @mistrdctr / @respondedinkind @auroradicit @red-white-and-trauma @blue-eyed-banshee @helreginn @astridnorddottir @brittlefcrged and YOU!

my silly lil bracelets. all specific for each song/album except vore I just wanted it to be cute and pink for obvious reasons 😂 I’m gonna be dumb and explain each bracelet below the cut because I guess hyperfixation. I see like imagery when I listen to music so putting it into bracelets has been fun. Have lots of ideas for other bands/songs too.
Why are you never real— from my favorite TMBTE song “The Apparition”. Has UV beads that change colors in the sunlight, like a disappearing ghost. Wasn’t sure this one would fit on a bracelet but I’m so glad it did. I think about this song constantly.
DYWTYLM (I have to say it in my head every time to remember the letters)—similar to vore just that they’re both sad or fucked up and I wanted them to be cute instead lol. But also I feel this song has a pop-y vibe so there’s that too.
High Water- has transparent blue beads (duh).
TPWBYT— almost every song on this album reminds me of water somehow (if not every single one) and I also think of the relationship described. So there’s two colored clay beads that initially are separate but mix in the end, becoming each other. Like drowning.
Euclid— the ending of a vicious cycle, lots of possibilities. Similar to like a star shower (think the scene in Howls Moving Castle where there’s stars falling to the ground)
Telomeres— for this one I imagine like deep oceans and whales. I really like how the gradient turned out gotta make more of those (scratches good brain itch)
Dark Signs—no streetlights, so lots of stars. dark. you feel me?
Nazareth— y’all don’t know how much I fw this song lolol I’d be surprised if it’s not top this year. always the first one I choose on my sleep token all playlist. anyway the line “guess what a hollow point does to a naked body” is what this one is themed for with red and black.
Aqua Regia— another UV color changer because SCIENCE you know? Aqua Regia being a compound that dissolves gold and platinum—also some clear beads with gold flecks in them 😉 (took more time putting the beads under a nail lamp for a few minutes at a time and sorting them only to find out the ones I used on the apparition bracelet were different colors when I finished the bracelet so rip)
anyway if you read all of this you’re a nerd and i love it we should be friends :) kinda wanna make more bracelets—was also thinking of some spirit box ones since im seeing them next month 😇

Apologies for the repeat ask, I just think mine got lost in all the others and now that you're answering asks I just wanted to try again so please ignore the first one if you manage to find it (again, really sorry if this bothers you and thanks for taking the time to read all of this). First off, I absolutely adore this AU!!!! I love how dark and angst-filled it is and the toxic relationships and the characterizations as a whole are so brilliantly well-done. You manage to draw me deeper and deeper into this twisted fiction with you and your co-writters masterful ideas and art. Not to mention how refreshing and relieving it is to be able to enjoy all of this angst without having to worry about if the individual(s) behind this truly feel that those kinds of relationships work that way (ie. romanticises/normalises it). All in all, thank you so much for all the time and effort you and your co-writors have put into this, it's greatly appreciated and I can't wait to see more!!!
P.S. I feel like Hateful Ever After by Ellise as well as a bunch of her other songs plus Paparazzi by Lady Gaga work really well in encompassing the vibes Addams Leosagi gives off. Maybe some of Upsahl, Will Wood and Confetti (especially Rob a Bank) songs for Addams Mikey too?
Thank you gain for taking the time to read this huge text dump and I hope you have a wonderful day(s)/week(s)/month(s)/year(s) because you deserve it and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise!!
No worries!!!!! I see every ask I get, I just have like. The lowest social battery ever, and for some reason asks are included in that (yeah, idk either) so I don't answer often. Your words are so, completely, absolutely screamed and fawned over.
We love dark themes and it's nice to see that you agree!!!!! All the dynamics and stuff are always so fun to work on and flesh out, how toxic relationships manifest in loads of different ways and how to portray that correctly. Labor of love, for sure!!!! Sad that some people do romanticize or normalize it, but all there is to do is be better then they are, yk?
Thank you for your kind words!!!!!! They are so so appreciated, you don't even know!!! We have lots of stuff in the works, which is so exciting (and nerve-racking, lol).
Now, song reccs!!!! Hell yeah >:]]]]]
For Hateful Ever After, I think the tone is really Leo, but the lyrics hit me over the head with Usagi. Like, Spot on!!!
Don't tell my brother, please // I know he worries about me // Seen I've been losing sleep 
The ones who told me all I need to know // But, I can't go back even if I want
Four eyes to watch each other cry // Three lies, you whispered to me that night // Two arms to hold my broken trust // One heart for the both of us
AS FOR PAPARAZZI?????? THE FACT ITS SO LEO *AND* ITS GAGA????? LEO WOULD LOVE GAGA OH MY GOD. LOVED THESE LINES.
I'm your biggest fan, I'll follow you until you love me
But I won't stop until that boy is mine // Baby, you'll be famous, chase you down until you love me
Look at the past blast, I'ma make you fall on your ass // Suck it up and pacify, but it's irrelevant
As for Mikey, I do love those!!!! ESPECIALLY Rob A Bank (hell, I put it on my OWN playlist, it fucking slaps). I also really like Ghost by Confetti for him too!!!! Confetti just seems to be really good overall LOL
I didn't listen to too many songs by each artist, just some of the first that popped up, but I really loved both Drugs and People I Don't Like by UPSAHL for him too! That's really how Mikey approaches his fame and the people he has to interact with because of it. He's there for the drugs and the party, not for the people. And he's aware they aren't there for HIM, but the connections he can give them.
As for Will Wood, Main Character is SOOOO Mikey. Bro really would call people NPCs LMAOOOO. I loved the line "God forbid I'm seen just as an average human being." That alone definitely made it an insta-add to his playlist :]
GOOD LUCK READING MY TEXT DUMP RIGHT BACK!!!!! HAVE AN AWESOME DAY TOO <333 THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR ASK!!!

Stokes Song Spotlight: "Lush Life"
This first song spotlight segment is brought to you by me learning that the word "distingué" exists and what it means (。•̀ᴗ-)✧
Tumblr media
Okay so hear me out, I was on the phone with my mom discussing normal everyday things like Frank Sinatra songs we've never heard before. My mom offered up the recommendation to listen to "Memories of You" from the new Sinatra Platinum release (x). While I was scrolling through this album on Spotify, I saw that "Lush Life" was on there.
"Lush Life" is a song that I had never heard before summer 2022 when I heard Brian Stokes Mitchell sing it at 54 Below. He told the story of Billy Strayhorn and Duke Ellington and how Strayhorn was a black, out, gay man during the 1940s/50s jazz scene. He wrote the song when he was 16! A few days after the 54 Below show, I heard Stokes sing the song on the Boston Pops performance that aired on the radio, and then again two more times live at the Perelman Center (10/5/23) and Ridgefield Playhouse (10/29/23). Ted Firth features prominently on piano, playing a long mood-setting intro before Stokes comes in on vocals and then another solo in the middle of the song.
“where one relaxes on the axis of the wheel of life, to get the feel of life..”
It’s one of those hypnotic songs, that somehow feels both simple and complex at the same time. I am extremely biased (you know where you are) but I’ll type it out anyway, Stokes’s version is my favorite. Maybe it’s because I’ve seen him sing it live and up close and you can tell he loves it too, but I also think his version is the most mournful. And what I mean by that is he just gets across all the story potential in the song. Like he paints the scene of a guy in a rumpled suit, sitting at a corner table, a fedora pushed back to the crown of his head, hungover and nursing a drink too early in the morning —but in that sad, smoky almost Edward Hopper-like picture you can also see that he’ll be back later, decked out and ready for those brief moments of life that the night brings when the band is playing and everything is right. I know I watch too many old movies it’s true. I guess what I’m trying to say is Stokes makes it cinematic ‧͙⁺˚*・༓☾ My next favorite version is by Sarah Vaughan.
Anywayyyy, I’m not gonna lie I thought the lyrics were “distant gay traces” but they are actually “distingué traces.” I’ve never heard that word before and I had to look it up, it means having a distinguished manner or appearance and it makes the song so much better. It also gave me the idea for doing these song spotlights because I love learning and sharing my dumb nerd research. So please enjoy the links below for more info about Billy Strayhorn and then pop your headphones on and give this song a listen in all its many forms. And here’s hoping that it makes its way onto a Stokes album someday ✨
[side note: looking up stuff about this song also helped me to learn that the aforementioned Ted Firth has an album titled Lush Life with Tony Desare and one of the tracks is, you guessed it, Lush Life!] (x) (x)

I was challenged tagged by @parrot-parent​ to come up with an answer for every one of these music questions.  Please learn more about my music tastes than anyone should.
1:A song you like with a color in the title: Favorite Color is Blue by Robert Delong ft. K.Flay, which I am not allowed to link to directly for some reason.  I’m going to get The Vermin Survive tattoo’d at some point when I can figure out a design for it.  (If you’re a tattoo artist, hmu 👀
2:A song you like with a number in the title
A Complete List of Fears Ages 5-28 (Aprox) by The Yellow Dress. I want to lick it.
3:A song that reminds you of summertime
The first thing that came to mind was When It’s Over by Sugar Ray, because I’m absolutely ancient by tumblr standards.
4:A song that reminds you of someone you would rather forget about
Love Me Dead by Ludo, but not for the reasons you’d think.
5:A song that needs to be played LOUD
Hellbent by Mystery Skulls, which is only correct when it’s loud enough to blow my speakers and my eardrums.
6:A song that makes you want to dance
Zoot Suit Riot by the Cherry Popping Daddies. Shouts to the time my prom date got pissed at me for dancing to this when they didn’t want to lol
7:A song to drive to
On the Road Again by Willy Nelson is the first song on my roadtrip playlist, as is good and right.
8:A song about drugs or alcohol
Semi-Charmed Life by Third Eye Blind is the most obvious song about crystal meth that has ever been played and I don’t care it is my favorite song of all time, it delights me
9:A song that makes you happy
Cheesecake Truck by King Missile.  So then I got this idea about driving a cheesecake truck
10:A song that makes you sad
Your Voice as I Remember It by AJJ.  I have an entire playlist dedicated to songs I can’t sing along with without crying but this was the first that came to mind.  Notable other mentions are What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie and A Plea from a Cat Named Virtue by the Weakerthans
11:A song that you never get tired of
BlackBoxWarrior (OK Ultra) by Will Wood. I can and have listened to this song on repeat for hours at a time.
12:A song from your preteen years
Preteens.  Jesus. Are you sure you want me to delve back that far?  Anyway, when I was around that age I was really into Jewel, so probably Little Sister.  Which is also a song about drugs.
13:One of your favorite 80’s songs
Safety Dance by Men Without Hats is the correct answer.
14:A song that you would love played at your wedding
Brand New Colony by the Postal Service.  I eloped so I don’t get any wedding music, but I’ve made a wedding playlist for my OCs and I’m totally normal about the fact that this is the first song
15:A song that is a cover by another artist
You Oughta Know by the Killing Moon is one of my favorite covers of all time by virtue of them not changing the pronouns
16:One of your favorite classical songs
The hardest part of this meme isn’t thinking of songs for every ask it’s picking which out of the dozen possible answers for every question that I’m going to go with. I listened exclusively to classic piano for like 2 years in my teens.  Anyway, tough call but I gotta go with the Moonlight Sonata Third Movement by Beethoven.  From what I was told, it was written as he was losing both his sight and his hearing and it’s so aggressive and mournful because of it.  Beethoven was a prick but man the dude could play.
17:A song that would sing a duet with on karaoke
Snow Miser/Heat Miser. Get that shit stuck in your head and sing with me.
18:A song from the year that you were born
Listen I’m not going to date myself out loud so if you want to know that bad you can look and see.
19:A song that makes you think about life
This might be the hardest one to answer yet.  I don’t know man, every song makes me think about life. All of them do. What aspect of life? What topic? So here’s one, I guess: White Noise by Will Wood.
20:A song that has many meanings to you
Weak and Powerless by A Perfect Circle. I know it’s about drugs, but man if you take it literally...
21:A favorite song with a person’s name in the title
Jacqueline by Circa Waves. Please watch the video. Please.
22:A song that moves you forward
Point to Prove (I Was An Ugly Kid) by Bug Hunter. yeah.
23:A song that you think everybody should listen to
Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen) by Baz Luhrman.  Get to it.
24:A song by a band you wish were still together
Inexplicable by the Correspondents.  If I don’t think about it too hard I’ll be fine.
25:A song by an artist no longer living
Faint by Linkin Park. IF I DON’T THINK ABOUT IT TOO HARD I’LL BE FINE.
26:A song that makes you want to fall in love
Passenger Seat by Death Cab for Cutie. 
27:A song that breaks your heart
Well if you’re going to do this to me twice in a row, What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie.  I put my mp3 player on shuffle after my adopted grandfather died suddenly and violently to try and calm myself and this is the first song that played and I’ve never been okay since.  Love is watching someone die.
28:A song by an artist with a voice that you love
Grace for Sale by Terrance Zdunich.  Tough call but considering I stole his voice for Taj Na...
29:A song that you remember from your childhood
I Will Buy You a New Life by Everclear, which one of my classmates was obsessed with, and played every lunch at school for months.  Jimmy you were 12 what was it about this song that spoke to you so much
30:A song that reminds you of yourself
Kokopelli Face Tattoo by AJJ.  I have a viper rune tattoo because of it.

hi darling, I'm here for the music asks <3
1, 9, 10, 19, 21, 26, 28, 30 💌
(I'd say sorry for sending so many, but I'm curious as heck, haha)
HI BABY!!!!!! <3<3<3 Thank yyyyyyoooouuuuuuuu
A song you like with a color in the title
I was going through my music and I honestly have so few??? I think I have to go with Blue Summer though by Ateez. The opening to that song lives in my head rent free forever. I love that song so much (The runner up was Peach Scone by Hobo Johnson, specifically the live version)
A song that makes you happy
Dangerous by Bonedo popped into my head first so i'm going with that! Anything upbeat like that with fun lyrics is bound to make me happy. Especially bonedo rn.
A song that makes you sad
Landfill by Daughter
A song that makes you think about life
So many of One Okay Rock's songs. Broken Heart of Gold, Renegades, Delusion:All, just to name a few. The other song I thought of was Idea 10 by Gibran Alcocer (specifically the slowed & reverb version) but that because of a whole train of thoughts.
A favorite song with a person’s name in the title
Freddy by Xdinary Heroes. This is another one that made me realize just how few songs I listen to dont have names in the title, which makes sense but is interesting.
A song that makes you want to fall in love
So many. Anything on my playlist for Flag for sure. Favorite one off that playlist right now is Take A Chance With Me by NIKI. I wanna be cheesy and sing that to someone one day:)
A song by an artist with a voice that you love
Two by Sleeping At Last. I dont know many of their songs, but I so very much like their voice in that song. I used to sleep to that song a lot.
A song that reminds you of yourself
This one I knew was going to be hard. But fuck. I want to put like, 30 seconds of a bunch of different songs I think the song that reminds me the most of myself as a whole though is the broken hearts club by gnash. Asking why will unlock my whole backstory and mental situation, just as a warning xD xD it would be like a unskipable cutscene lmao

hii I adore your work and think about it enough to associate your fics with some songs and I recently came across a song with the identical title and i almost thought that GLB might be based on this but then i found out that this song is wlw lol. so I wanted to ask if there were any songs that inspired you to write this story?
Hi! Thanks so much for reading and dropping by! The subject matter is like totally different but I'm a huuuuge Chappell Roan fan, so "Good Luck, Babe!" does share a title with her song! The song is Chappell singing to her ex gf in a 'good luck being sad and married to a man could never be me'. I knew I wanted GLB to be about the reader more or less learning lessons/having teen experiences parallel to some of the tangible memories her mom left behind, which is kind of the concept of that Disney show Good Luck Charlie??? But I couldn't get that Chappell song out of my head and I just used it haha. I'm WLW and we haven't had a pop win like this since Hayley Kiyoko! I go out of my way to make sure the reader isn't named, and the nicknames she does have don't go as nicely in the title imo. While GLB isn't directly inspired by any songs (unlike KMM) I do have an idea of what'd be playing the background! Like I know what playlist was on at her birthday party, what she's listening to when she feels like she's angry, or when she wants to disappear.

11, 12, and 13 for the ask game, please?
11. Do you write scenes in order, or do you jump around?
I jump around when jotting down ideas; like, if I'm writing something and then I get a random flash of inspiration, I'll jump to further down in my document to type out the sentence/scene/words/whatever, because I know from experience that I will NOT remember it later when I want it.
But when actually properly writing/editing the fic in full, no, my mind requires me to write scenes in order. It's one of the reasons it takes me so long to finish and post stuff, because if I'm stuck on a scene or sick of looking at it while editing, I can't move on to a different section and work on that instead. It has to be in order.
12. Do you outline your fics?  If yes, how detailed are your outlines?  How far do you stray from them?
ALWAYS. Mmm, it really depends. When I think of plot/scene sequence, it's very much like watching scenes from a movie in my head -- location, angle, POV, etc., and I really enjoy switching POVs multiple times even within a one-shot. So for pretty much everything, I'll first create sections in the document for each different POV; or, if it's a single POV, sections for each event/scene that happens. After that, if I'm writing a one shot, it's usually just word-vomiting ideas/phrases
kind of like this in this type of format
in each section, along with any relevant canon quotes/dialogue/research I want to use, plus citation of where I found it, in case I want to look it up in its original context again (learned that the hard way XD). So that I can have all of my material readily available to reference as I am writing, without constantly having to run around multiple places to find it and potentially miss something I had wanted to include but forgot.
If I'm writing something that's multiple chapters, I have a separate document in full outline mode, where I keep track of the content of each chapter and what each chapter will address, plus the timeline. For example:
[November] 
Prologue – Chapter 1: Battle on the roof of Las Noches
Chapter 2: Ulquiorra’s revival
Chapter 3: Zanpakuto rebellion + Ulquiorra in Soul Society
[November-February] 
[end of November -- Gotei 13 invading army arc]
[December 2 – Ichigo loses his reiryoku]
Chapter 4: Zanpakuto rebellion cont, Ulquiorra reunites with Orihime; 
[March-April] 
Chapter 5: Hoshi goes to Hueco Mundo, meets Grimmjow; Grimmjow stalks her in living world
^ these are chapters I've already written, so notes are pretty minimal and basically are only the broad contents of each chapter because I delete as I address/incorporate each thing, but for WIPs, each chapter also has a subsection that includes important points, quotes I want to incorporate, scene breakdown, etc.
I rarely ever stray from my outlines. There may be additional ideas or scenes that pop up in my mind that I want to incorporate, but at most it means maybe reshuffling some things around. It's never big enough to change anything significant about the fic.
13. Do you listen to music while you write?  If yes, what have you been listening to recently?
Nope! Music is very, very distracting to me. I require complete silence. I'll listen to music while daydreaming about fic or planning/researching, etc., and that's usually either character/universe playlists I've made or, if what I'm working from has an OST, I'll listen to tracks from that based on vibe (calm/ambient, sad, cheerful, battle, etc.) that matches the tone of the fic. But never when I'm actually writing, no.
Recently, I've had Darkness, The Other Side, and Moonlight Shadow playing on loop while I'm driving and thinking about fictional things. It was just happy coincidence (a matter of time, really, given how much of their music I have) that one of their songs played while I was thinking of Nan Elmoth, so now Blackmore's Night is officially the sound of that forest for me ♡

le questionnaire
Tea, coffee, or soda?
Coffee. I'm better with tea now but if I'm not drinking water I'd rather have coffee of some sort, preferably iced
Dogs or cats?
Both! I don't have a cat right now after my old lady Ally passed away, but I really really miss having a cat. The neighborhood cats take some of that sadness away though. My dog Abby, aka Bologna lol, is my everything and I really dont want to imagine life without her nope! Not thinking about it!
Can you play any instrument?
That's like asking if can I sing lol. No, but that doesn't stop me! I like strumming an acoustic guitar or a charango as if I know what I'm doing.
What’s your sun sign?
Sagittarius. Though sometimes I feel as though I'm more of a Pisces since I was supposed to be born in February. I once looked up if being premature has an effect on your zodiac sign. Supposedly it doesn't, but...I just don't know about that. Though I'm sure my brother would say that my temper shows that I truly am every bit of the triple fire sign that I am. I just call that being half Puerto Rican.
First song lyrics that pops into your head?
I don't trust anything or anyone below the sun and I don't feel anything at all
Do you have any tattoos?
No but I have many planned out in my head for the day I have money to spend on them. I want tattoos, dammit!
Favorite place you’ve traveled?
That's hard to choose! I loved being in Germany so much and the few places we were able to travel to because of being there. But...I'd have to say Venice. Cause it was just amazing and I want to go back. But also cause a pigeon tried to take out my brother in a sneak attack and I will forever cherish that memory and love pigeons now even more than I already had.
What’s the last movie you’ve watched?
I honestly have no idea. Probably When Harry Met Sally? I was watching all the romcoms I love one day and I think that was the last one I watched? I'm not sure, I watch shows more than movies these days.
What languages do you speak?
As said so eloquently by Korben Dallas, "Whoa lady, I only speak two languages; English and bad English." And even then I still stumble over my words daily as if I haven't been speaking it my entire life. I also can speak a tiny bit of Spanish though I should really try and fix that seeing as how nearly my entire family speaks Spanish. Duolingo makes me think I can speak some Japanese (I cannot).
Do you have any hobbies?
Writing, drawing, crocheting. All of which I wish I did more of.
You can hang out with one fictional character for an hour, who do you choose?
Totoro....or Wallace Wells
Compliment yourself:
I'm pretty good at decorating cakes. I'm always wanting and willing to help anyway I can.
my lockscreen, the last song i listened to, the last picture i took, and the last picture i saved
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was so much fun lol, and didn't send me into an over thinking downward spiral 🤩 if anyone sees this and feels so inclined to do it, please do! I tag @rikotin and @7nessasaryevils if either of you want 💜

4.
Put your music library on shuffle (or just pick some random songs) and answer a few questions for each one.
by chasingghosts
❀ Song One ❀
What's the song?
I Hate Everything About You by Three Days Grace.
When did this song come out?
2003, wooow. Literally 20 years ago.
Would you recommend this song to someone?
Sure, love that song, takes me back to high school. Whoever’s feeling angsty or sad would probably really feel it.
Do you know how to play this song on an instrument? (or would you like to learn?)
I don’t play any instruments, but if I knew how to play a guitar, sure.
❀ Song Two ❀
What's the song?
Promise by Jimin.
Do you remember how you discovered this song?
Hmm, not really. I guess I just stumbled upon it when exploring BTS discography. And since then it has become my comfort song.
What genre would you classify this song as?
Uhh, no idea? Like a sweet, acoustic ballad.
Have you ever been obsessed with or fixated on this song?
Not obsessed or fixated but whenever I need a little pick-me-up, I play this and it feels like a warm hug from your best friend.
❀ Song Three ❀
What's the song?
Outro: Tear by BTS
Could you dance to this song?
You could definitely jump to this one.
Does this song remind you of anyone?
No, but somehow I always think of J-hope for this one, even though the whole rapline performs it.
What’s the tempo of this song?
Intense, fast, the song feels almost like a desperate cry in a way.
❀ Song Four ❀
What's the song?
Fine Again by Seether
Have you ever seen this song performed live?
No, and I doubt I ever will. I pretty much only listen to this song from Seether's discography.
What is the name of the album this song is on?
Well, I cheated and looked it up, it’s called Fragile.
Does this song ever get stuck in your head?
There was a time when it was nonstop in my head. I think I was going through stuff at the time, and it’s kinda perfect for those moments.
❀ Song Five ❀
What's the song?
I’m Fine by BTS
Does this song have male or female vocals?
Only male.
Do you like the lyrics of this song?
Yeah, actually, I like how it’s about being your own support and pulling yourself out of hardships instead of relying on someone else. I also like how it’s a direct answer to Save Me they made a few years prior, and it shows the change and progress of their attitudes in general.
Does this song remind you of any particular period of your life?
Just my early Army days when I would mix up whether it’s Save Me or I’m Fine based on the first few notes of the song. The beginning is intentionally similar, but obviously nothing else is the same.
❀ Song Six ❀
What's the song?
Fake Love by BTS
Would you say this is one of your favourite songs?
Actually yes. I owe a lot to this song.
When did you first discover this song?
Last March, and it was actually one of the first songs I heard by BTS and the song that got me into the band. My sister and I decided to show our mum some K-pop (though neither of us were K-pop fans lol), and so we looked up BTS as one of the only bands we'd heard about, stumbled upon their 2018 MAMA performance of Fake Love, Airplane pt. 2 and Idol, and were completely blown away. And the rest is history.
❀ Song Seven ❀
What's the song?
Loooool Scream by Troy Bolton from High School Musical 3.
Is this song a genre you would regularly listen to?
Not at all, but I love this dramatic song. I remember when I downloaded it too and I know that I was feeling very dramatic myself lmao
Has this song ever been in a popular chart like Billboard?
I highly doubt it.
Is this song on any of your playlists?
Nope.
❀ Song Eight ❀
What's the song?
Crawl Away by Tool
Do you like to sing along to this song?
When I’m angry, yes. I don’t think I know all lyrics entirely, but yes. It also makes me sad though, so I don’t listen to it too often.
What’s the emotion of this song?
Anger, desperation, disappointment, it’s pretty vengeful too in some way.
Have you ever seen this artist perform live?
Yessssss, in 2019! I was so excited and it was insane. I honestly still feel like that whole festival day was a dream.
❀ Song Nine ❀
What's the song?
Bury a friend by Billie Eilish.
Does this song have more than one singer?
No, but you can hear a guy say her name at the beginning.
Do you know any other songs from the album this song is on?
I think so, yeah.
Would you play this song at a party?
It’s not exactly a party song, but I can imagine that it might work at a certain darker type of party.
❀ Song Ten ❀
What's the song?
Closer by NIN
Is the artist who performs this song one of your favourites?
No, but I like a few of their songs.
Do you know all the lyrics to this song?
I believe so.
Is there a music video for this song, and have you seen it?
Oh I’ve seen it. Back in high school I was very much like wtf is happening, but I guess you just kind grow numb to it all with age

Anon again, anon would love to see your playlist though you're comfortable
Have a sweet day♡
Helloooo <3 sure, no worries! Here’s my Spotify
A lot of my playlists are private cause I give them hyper specific names and feel embarrassed if someone sees them hahah but there might be some good stuff in my public ones, too!
Edit: just had the idea of posting my private ones here, this way you can listen to them if you’d like & still none of the ppl in my life will find them!! Here are the private playlists:
solo bugs (solo Beatles stuff I enjoy!)
daily depression walk while listening to music sounding like pots and pans banging together (started out as a post punk sort of playlist but now has everything in it, from punk to pop to indie)
John (depressed version) (my favourite sad John Lennon songs! Something about them just gets me the way no other sad songs do)
Listen to this instead of committing homicide (heavy metal stuff I enjoy! Some hard rock in there too, lots of Mötley Crüe)
Lyrics that make me want to repeatedly bang my head against the wall

Hey! Just wanted to pop in and say I love seeing you on my dash (and that I loved Linger! It's in my 'to comment on' folder when life gets a little less wild bc it deserves another read!) BUT I also wanted to ask about your writing process! Do you have anything special that you do or anything that really makes or breaks a writing session?
hi hi! omg that's really sweet, thank you so much! i love seeing you on my dash too, so this works out great for the both of us 😊😊
and as far as my writing process goes, it really depends on the idea i have in mind, the time of day, where my head is at, the scene i'm gonna write and so many other things so let me break it down for you under the cut:
okay, so first, there's the idea! which can be a song or scene from a movie or tv-show, or even another fic at times. usually like one scene or a few lines of dialogue pop in my head and i write that down in my notes app before i forget (because i tend forget a LOT of things) before i let it marinate for a few days, adding more ideas as i go
then i start writing an outline, which is usually a list of bullet points that explains the story in short, with some lines of dialogue or small details i want to incorporate. this outline is both super helpful (because it helps me keep track of the story) and annoying at the same time (because sometimes i get stuck on one idea which stops me from writing anything else that could possibly work in the story). but usually that outline is my lifeline and helps me divide the story into scenes or chapters
then, the actual writing (dundundunnnn). starting a story is always hard imo, but i usually just start writing and go with the flow, editing things afterwards to make everything make sense. same goes for ending a fic, i tend to have a broad idea of how i want to end things, so i write that down and edit it as i go.
music is a total must as i write, it can totally influence my vibe or help drown out the outside noise and thoughts and let me focus on the story at hand. i usually pick music that fits the mood (so sad songs to go with angsty scenes, slow jams to go with kissing and make-out scenes) but at times, just a random playlist or album from my spotify library does the trick. EXCEPT when fics are directly inspired by certain songs or albums, during those writing hours i usually listen to that song/album on repeat (the cranberries are def gonna show up in my spotify wrapped after writing linger lol)
other than that, i don't do anything special i think? i usually do have an empty, unnamed document open, which i use to drop sentences/dialogue in that i do wanna use but not in the way i've written them. that way i can reuse them without clogging up my writing document. and i can write virtually anywhere (at my desk, at the dining table, on the couch while the masked singer is on...) as long as i have some kind of device within arms' reach and i have an idea, i'm good to go.
what does break my writing is people interrupting me. at times i'm really feeling the writing flow and then people keep bugging me and i get really irritated (to quote kuzco: you threw me of my groove!).
i also get really annoyed when i keep writing but it doesn't feel right and i can't figure out why. at those times, i usually start over and sometimes even try a whole new setting that makes things work (like for chapter 2 of my current wip, i got stuck in a flashback of steve and eddie meeting that had to evolve into present tense, where eddie was on his way to see steve, and it just didn't work. so i scratched the whole flashback idea, and just started with eddie in the subway on his way to steve, it worked out better that way)
one final pro-tip: find someone who you can share your ideas with! i love annoying people with my ideas and sometimes they have a new detail or angle that can be really useful for the process of your fic. feel free to hit me up anytime, i looove workshopping ideas!
hope this helps and like i said, feel free to come talk to me, i love rambling about writing and fic ideas! 💛💛
