Can I ask your zodiac sign ? Mine is Libra!

Can I ask 1 more smut with Julian ... something cute like having the first time with the fem reader ? Please!

I am an Aries! My B-day is April, 5th!

Yes, I can do Julian! I just love him so much! Thank you for the request and thank you for the support <3

The Virgin 𓆩♡𓆪 (Julian Casablancas x Reader)

𓆩♡𓆪= Smut

ੈ✩‧₊˚= Fluff

⋆ ★= Angst

T/W: Virginity taking, praising, cussing, and teasing.

(Reader Discretion Is Advised)

You never told Julian you were a virgin. Your friends mocked you all the time for it. They gave you the name "the virgin" since everyone else had already lost their virginity except you. They also mocked the fact that you never told Julian you were a virgin and that you never had sex. You just never knew why. You guessed it was because you were too scared to tell Julian. You feared that he'd make fun of you like your friends. So you always avoided being overly sexual. Even if it did get sexual you'd always make some excuse to leave or fake a sickness. Julian wouldn't get upset but he'd just frown and say okay. You felt so guilty for leading him on and then not doing it. But tonight it was going to change. Today was the day you were going to have your first time with Julian. You planned it out, he'd come by to hang out and you'd make moves on him. The plan was foolproof.

Julian already planned to come by noon. So you dressed extra nicely to get things really in gear. You wore a lace tank top with black shorts. You wore pink glossy lipstick and mascara. You waited for Julian in your living room. Julian had spare keys to your apartment so it wasn't odd for him to walk in. After 30 minutes of waiting, you heard a car pull up and you peeked out the window to see Julian. He was carrying flowers and was smiling. You blushed at his chivalry. Julian always brought flowers or some sort of treat when he came by. You heard the door jingle and then the door opens. You stood up quickly and greeted him. "Hey, baby!" You said in a cheery tone. Julian smiles wider and hugs you. "Hey, princess! You look so cute today!" Julian said as he stared at you up and down.

You blushed and kissed him. Julian hands you the flowers and you quickly put them in a vase. As you put the flowers in the vase, Julian sat on the couch and was waiting for you. "Hey Jules, why don't we hang in my room? I have something cool to show you." You said. You planned for Julian to go into your room. Julian nods and you take his hand and lead him to your room. Julian sat on the edge of your bed and you pretended to look through your records. While looking for the records you slightly stuck your ass out to show off your ass. You knew Julian would look but he wouldn't do anything. And it worked like a charm. Julian was looking and he was staring for a long time. You finally took a random record and walked over to him. You then sat in his lap and showed off your record. "This is what I wanted to show you. My new record I bought." You said in his ear.

He was blushing madly and trying his hardest not to get an erection but his efforts were in vain. You continued to talk about the record but in a seductive tone to tease him more. "This is the famous Guns N Roses album. My favorite song on it is Paradise City." As you said closer to Julian's ear. Julian huffs and exhales. Then he looks up at you. "What are you doing to me?" Julian finally says as he holds his breath in. "What are you talking about?" You asked pretending to act clueless. Julian couldn't take it anymore and pushes you off his lap and onto the bed and pins your hands up. "Don't act clueless, the makeup, outfit, your voice. I know you're trying something." Julian said as he huffed. You smirked and looked at him. "Okay you got me, yeah I planned all this. I didn't expect this from you. I expected you to keep quiet." You said laughing. Julian frowned and started kissing your neck. You gasped and flinched.

Julian tightened his grip on your hands. Julian then pulls away. "Wait Jules, can I talk to you about something real quick?" you said as he broke away. Julian lets go of your hands and gets off of you. "Yes, sweetheart of course. What is it?" He says looking at you. You sighed and looked at him. "The reason why I haven't been sexual with you is because I am a virgin. And I was always scared you'd be turned off or even worse. Make fun of me for being one." You said still staring at Julian. Julian gives a half smile and holds your hand gently. "Y/N, it's okay that you're a virgin. I know it may seem scary that everyone else isn't but It's doesn't matter. It only matters that you are mine." Julian said as he smiled wider at you. You smiled and looked down. Julian lifts up your chin and kisses your lips. You deepened the kiss and leaned back. Julian lays you back further so you're lying on your back.

Julian moves his lips down to the crook of your neck and starts kissing. You gasped and moaned as he kissed. Julian moves his soft hands down your shorts and slowly pulls them off. You wrap your hand around Julian's belt and unbuckle them. You pulled Julian's pants down. Julian pulls away from your neck and removes the leather jacket he was wearing. Julian smiles and continues to kiss your neck. You moan and finally, you said you were ready for him. Julian pulls away. "Are you sure? I can take things slow if you want." Julian says as he stares down at you. "Do whatever handsome, make me feel good." You said leaning towards him. Julian nods and smiles and snuggles his head in your neck and collarbone. You stroke his hair as he enters you. You gasp and grip his hair tightly. "It's okay baby, I'll go slow," Julian says in your neck. You huff and nod. Julian then slowly and gently enters his full member inside.

You moan out Julian's name. Julian softly caresses your back to calm you down. You huff and signal him to keep going. Julian smiles and begins to thrust slowly. You moan and huff as he slowly thrust. After a few thrusts, you got used to it. You whimpered out "J-Jules, you can go faster now." Julian nods and goes faster. But the speed wasn't super fast. It was fast enough to give you comfort instead of pain. "Jules you're so gentle, I love it." You said as you wrapped your legs around his waist. Julian smiles and continues to thrust. You loved this new feeling.

You loved the pleasure and loved the fact that Julian was being so gentle with you. "Ugh, J-Jules. I-I'm about to come." You moaned out. Julian continued to thrust. "Me too babe, we can come together," Julian said as he trusted harder. After a few more thrusts, you came and so did Julian. Julian pulls out and lays next to you. Julian huffs and looks into your eyes. "Babe, you were amazing. You're so fucking gorgeous." Julian said as he laid his head on your chest. You smile and kiss his cheek. "I love you, Jules, thank you for being my first time." You said as you caressed his face. Julian smiles and kisses your lips. "I love you too Y/N, I'm glad I made you happy."

Fic Writing Review 2023 🌈

tagged by @itwoodbeprefect - i have also been thinking about this so thank you for taking the initiative!

tagging @faorism @gallantrejoinder if you'd care to do this in any form (including as writing/art review)!

Words and Fics (on ao3) 📚

words posted: 52,220, apparently. Which is actually... basically last year's but minus 10k because I didn't do H50 Big Bang this year, because med school. most things in my life now can be stated as 'because med school'. (actually I just realised I didn't do it last year either, but that was because I was already finishing a 10k H50 fic. so my point stands)

fics posted: either 6 or 29, depending on whether one counts the advent calendar as one fic or 24. plus 3 posted only on Tumblr.

first fic: love don't treat you like that (babe, I'm letting you know) (H50). on the NINTH of january, apparently. i've already lost my first-fic-of-the-year contest to last year, unless i unexpectedly finish something today.

last fic: Advent Calendar 2023 / ...Zaph Kilkane, the pre-eminent climate scientist of the 22nd century...

Advent Calendar 2023 (see above. nine fandoms)

Finding A Cure In You (S&H)

Top 5 Favorite Fics 💖

okay, I'm going to count distinct chapters of the advent calendar for this. in no particular order and subject to mood change:

When You're Loving Me (That's When I'm Loving You) (NCIS: LA) - I cited this as a contender for my favourite fic I've written a couple months ago, so obviously it has to go in the year's. what can i say, fake dating is an immaculate trope, and this also all came onto the page very easily which is always vaguely miraculous.

there you go pulling me right back in (H50) - sometimes vague prompts i've had down for ages write up as something that's. fine, but a bit clunky, and I just have to move on bc it's the advent calendar and a new fic each day. sometimes I start writing them and they spring into life with joyous delight. or in this case, uninhibited grumpiness and love.

singing yesterday's songs wishing i could be with you tonight (MASH) - the one that didn't make it into the top 5 kudosed, I assume partially due to being locked and partially due to being a serious tone, not terribly shippy, and Peg POV. But I've had some version or other of it for a long time, it's one of those stories I'm genuinely proud of, and I was glad to finally post it.

Totally Normal (Due South) - it's fun. it was fun. I was slightly nervous about it, because the only prior Due South thing I'd written was Dief POV and this was Fraser and RayK POV and the first time writing either of those, but it turns out watching + liveblogging four and two seasons, respectively, of a character in four months is. enough to cement their voices in my head. it was unexpectedly easy and also. fun.

Festive Spice (MUNCLE) - i just think it epitomises the advent calendar. in the words of coolbreezemage, 'yesssss bake cakes and kiss your partner'.

HMs:

Finding A Cure In You (S&H) - this doesn't make it to the above list due to the fact that I haven't actually managed to reread it since I posted it. but just for the amount of time I spent with it, how different it is to my usual M.O. of writing, and the weird way I wrote it (entirely in the notes app, with almost zero rereading while writing), I have to somehow mention it.

A Thousand Words / To Be Spared (Good Omens) - I don't know if they're favourite but I do think they're good. and the format of to be spared was pleasingly experimental and i think it worked.

Projects for 2024 👀

mmm gonna sort this differently and also ramble

Ones that will definitely be finished in 2024 and if they aren't you have free rein to come to my house and tie me to a chair come November: MUNCLE wip, The Unwitting Truth Affair/The Honesty Affair, I haven't actually decided which title yet;

Starsky & Hutch, the still-unnamed Huggy & Pete wip.

Ones I have both hope and some amount of faith will be finished in 2024 and if they aren't you have free rein to come into my inbox and harass me about them: Hawaii Five-0 wip, Much Ado About Something (*salutes squares*);

other Hawaii Five-0 wip, state of disrepair. yes, I'm manifesting state of disrepair 2024. probably november/december 2024, but i'm manifesting it anyway;

Leverage wip, all that I want is a kind heart to haunt

Ones I would like to be finished in 2024, and if my brain decides it likes them might be, but all you have free rein for is to politely ask me about them once per business month: Hawaii Five-0 cath/steve/danny pwp, Wait A Minute Let Me Take You There;

horny S&H wip, Previews Of Your Body Driving Me Insane;

S&H Vanessa coda, so cordial / so rotten (don't ask me);

Good Omens wip, love won't you be as you've always been

Ones I don't expect to finish in 2024 but would like to get some words down in: angsty S&H wip, Relentless As The Rain;

ridiculous undercover H50 wip, Four Seasons of Love;

other ridiculous H50 wip, The Irritating, Annoying, Infuriating, (Effective) Seduction Techniques of One Steven J. McGarrett;

SPN ..wip? depending on the time limit on 'progress'?, Smells Like Turpentine.

vague thoughts: i'd like to write a full-length (for whatever value of that. the AC ones actually were full-length, especially the second one, but what I really mean is AC-independent) due south fic. they're very weird and i enjoyed writing them, and I'd also like to write something with RayV in it. maybe if I successfully inspired @itwoodbeprefect to write new ds, when she does that it will inspire me to write something, and we can set up a ping-pong game. no, wait, that's mixing fandoms.

I expect more MUNCLE fic. this one's already 3.5k and rocketing along, and i'm only two-thirds of the way through season 1. what form that will take i don't know at this stage but we'll see.

....i was discussing the vague concept of house/h50 crossover fic with squares literally yesterday and on the one hand I haven't written a crossover since 2014 and also don't want that to be my legacy, but on the other hand i think there is at least a 50% chance it's going to stick in the back of my brain and keep niggling.

List of Favorite Event Stories

The end of February to the mid of March sees important developments of several franchises’ main stories unfolding. Specifically, I’m talking about Granblue Fantasy, which is in the middle of its 9th anniversary celebration and Twisted Wonderland, of its 3rd anniversary. Yumekuro celebrated its 1st anniversary in February, so there were a series of events and campaigns going on. In January, Akuneko released Episode 2.5 of the main story, which not only has a significant impact on the main storyline but also on the game's mechanics. Mahoyaku… well, it’s rolling out monthly updates on main story 2 as usual.

All the events in the game franchise I'm playing have inspired me to compile a list of stories (mainly events) that have left the most memorable impression on me. Needless to say, these are just my opinions.

1. Granblue Fantasy (GBF)

[All of title translations credit goes to the original game and gbf.wiki]

It's hard to pick just three favourite stories from a franchise that's been around for nine years. Not to mention the large cast, the rich and detailed world-building, and the rather complex ecosystem. So I'm going to cheat a little by choosing not an event title, but a series title.

The Archangel Saga is undoubtedly #1 for me. It consists of a trilogy that includes What Makes the Sky Blue, What Makes the Sky Blue II: Paradise Lost, and What Makes the Sky Blue III: 000. The series revolves around the relationship between former Supreme Primarch Lucifer and the archangel Sandalphon, and incorporates philosophical motifs into its plot. Given what happens at the end of the latest instalment, a continuation of the saga may be possible in the future (I hope).

The Dragon Knight series is next. Longer than the Archangel Saga, it contains 9 event stories, which are: Defender's Oath, Four Knights of a Fallen Land, Between Frost and Flame, Divergent Knighthoods, Welcome to the Bistro Feedranche, SIEGFRIED, The Saviour of Dalmore, The Strength to Wield, and To Each His Ideal. Loosely based on the Arthurian legend, the series has yet to reach its conclusion.

Romeo and Juliet series - in terms of intensity, this one is quite a leap from the previous two, but I still like it. The series consists of three event stories: So Close and Yet So Far, By Any Other Name, and Good Night Till It Be Morrow.

Special mention: Society and Foe, Kingdom of Levin, Kingdom of Irestill, and Alchemist. They're too good to be left out, even though they're not my top three, especially Society and Foe, which rivals Dragon Knight in greatness.

Precious, but unranked simply because I don’t know how to put them in order: Created by the Stars, Loved by the Skies (8th anniversary event story), …And You (9th anniversary event story), Together in Song (sequel to the Selfira and Elta series), The Maydays (summer vacation 2019), Sincerely, Your Dearest Friend (summer vacation 2022), and finally, the one I will never have in my own archive because I hadn’t started playing GBF yet at the time, Katsugeki Touken Ranbu: Fate Horizon (collaborative event with TKRB in 2017).

2. Twisted Wonderland (TWST)

[All of title translations credit goes to Twisted Wonderland Unofficial English Wiki]

The most substantial story, in all the franchise listed here, is undeniably the main part. But for TWST, the veracity of the statement increases tenfold, if it weren’t for the Halloween event 2022. Before that, all the events in TWST give me the impression of being detached from the main story almost completely. This is not to say they’re not enjoyable, of course. It’s just none of them generates the same level of excitement with the main story, which, again, is simply my personal experience with the game. With that being said, my top 3 events from TWST are:

Glorious Masquerade ~Crimson Flowers and the Bell of Salvation~ When I said TWST events stories giving an impression of being detached from the main story, I guess I have to exclude this one because it includes a huge chunk of information that may or may not be related to the main story (if you know what happened in part 37 of Chapter 7, you’ll probably have a good guess of what this means). That, in itself, is highly intriguing to ponder about, which is why I pick it as my #1.

Ghost Marriage ~Proposal of Destiny~ I like the premise and chaos that surrounds the entirety chain of events. I don’t know if they’ll continue this event or make an entirely new one, but I hope we can see the entire casts with tuxedo someday.

Wish Upon a Star ~Dance and Wishes~ Less than the story itself, I’m putting it in the third place because of the outfits and the BGM. May not be fair given this is a list of my favorite stories, but hey, the music makes me enjoy the story so…?

Unranked: Happy Beans Day ~Seize the Golden Harp~ and Master Chef events

3. Mahoyaku (MHYK)

[All title translations are taken from MHYK Resource Masterlist. Credit goes to the respective translator]

Oh, no I’m not going to pick only three with this one. What I’m going to do is to run through the list of events and pick all of the events I think are my favorites. Excluding main story 1 & 2, anniversary 1-3, the events taking place after the 3rd anniversary, below is the result.

Prelude of the Festival of Desire ~Western & Eastern~

Etude of the Frog Taking Shelter from the Rain ~Southern & Northern~

Ballad of the Dreaming Pilot ~Western & Central~

Ballad of the Dog Tamer’s Prayer to the Northern Lights ~Central & Western~

Paradox Roid (April Fool 2021)

Rhapsody of the Yearning Seaside Town ~Western & Southern~

Rhapsody of the Snowy Town Where Prayers Bloom ~Northern & Western~

Rhapsody of the Clinic Where Flowers Take Root ~Southern & Eastern~

Up to No Good Under the New Moon (Halloween 2021)

A Curious Fairytale and Candy

The Hand Which the Chocolat Queen Takes (Valentine 2022)

Let Your Feelings Age With Wine

Fantasia of the Artisan of Yore ~Southern & Eastern~

It’s tempting to give a commentary on each, but nothing I want to say hasn’t been said by someone else in MHYK fandom. Additionally, there are many other scenes in events unlisted above that decimated me completely, for example Figaro and Shylock’s conversation in West Etude, Murr and Figaro’s (Walpurgis 2020), White(adult)’s remark to Olivia, etc. This also includes the interactions in various log-in stories of all events and/or campaigns.

4. Yumekuro (YMKR)

[All title translations credit goes to @/yumekuro_en on twitter]

Looking at the in-game events gallery, I’m surprised to see that I haven’t read the majority of them. Because of that, I’m not sure if I should include YMKR but well… I did. The first four ones earn their sport because they have my favorite characters and the last solely because it Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland-themed event.

Love Wrapped in Ribbons of Gratitude

Chef Cuit vs Chaos Cooking

Onsen Village Overflowing With Love

Make a Wish on This Holy Night

Wonder Tea Party

5. Akuneko (AKNK)

The easiest franchise to do. It didn’t even take more than five minutes, I think. Without further ado, here they are.

The Black Tea Party ― I seriously hope they’ll do some sort of continuation of this event. The premise is interesting and certainly has room for more complex development. Even better if they can tie it into the main story.

The Captive Dolls ― Probably because we don’t see Lato much in the main story, and precisely because we’re going to see him soon, this event becomes twice as intriguing to me.

Strawberry Garden & Rose Valentine (Valentine 2022) ― Simple but heartwarming and entertaining enough for me.

Additionally, Masquerade Jewel… though more because of the outfits rather than the story, haha.

Title

I go by anything but am a girlblogger at heart.

This is a

for all my queers and girls 🩷🩷🩷

I have very strong opinions sometimes (most of the time) but try to spread love (to those who deserve it) :3

I love Car Seat Headrest, Lana, Ethel Cain, Clairo, The Smiths, Adrianne Lenker, midwest emo, all metal, and anything really.

I like playing guitar (decent), skateboarding (half-decent), engaging in literature (in any way at all), and indulging in film (not that serious).

My Top 5s are Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, La Haine, Gummo, and Juno. And yes, I have seen most quintessential critically acclaimed cinema.

I love reading and writing anything poetry or prose, The Bell Jar, Ariel, Paradise Lost, Heart of Darkness, A Little Life...

Really enjoy making (not very good) music that are either demos I never end up completing or covers of my favourite songs.

(not me)

Not really possessive of any definitive "aesthetic", anything from 2000s to emo to New York to coquette to Bob Dylan to Luke Blovad.

But I love zip hoodies and baby shirts and jeans and skirts and shirts and ties and leather jackets and leather gloves...

(still not me)

"We were wrecks before we crashed into each other."

Much love!!! :3

Neon, from all openings and endings songs of BNHA & JJK, which are your fav? Why?

Ooof, you're probably expecting really deep analysis to accompany these likes but my pleasure is not always that deep so please lower your expectations! I'm usually listening and looking at the animations for easter eggs and vibes, if anything, I don't religiously look up translations. Some of your questions are so funny to me, I'm sorry to disappoint if this wasn't what you were expecting!

This is a light skinned man. IYKYK

JJK

Off the top of my head, I feel like JJK has no misses? Hitting different vibes but nothing that feels like a theme song. Don't get me wrong, I love a good "Gotta Catchem All" or Pokemon Rap, too, but I prefer songs that don't feel out of place if it just popped up on shuffle, you know?

KaiKai Kitan - THE TROLLING.

Lost in Paradise - Catchy AF. Plus, this was as close as we were getting to a filler episode. I love how "simple" the illustration style is but the animations of each character have so much personality in their movements. Plus, provided a solid cozy cosplay on the last day of cons when you want to dress up but don't want to be encumbered as you hit the dealer room and artist alley.

Give it Back - even without the translation, this is sad. The animation is sad. The idea of this day that never happened when you think about the canon timeline is sad. It inspired a mediocre lil oneshot because why would they do this to me, specifically? This, of course, is animating something so realistic but ethereal.

Ichizu - okay, so maybe I looked up the translation to this one too and just.. SatoSugu.

Where Our Blue Is and Lantern - make me want to burst into flames? Also, I had a no-sleep-epiphany the other night where, if Geto was the last blue spring of Gojo's youth and blue is the basis of Gojo's strength then... I failed to make a sensical connection because I clearly don't rest and I'm unwell. It's currently 3:45AM. But it was something along the lines of equating that Gojo is not at full strength without Geto.

Specialz - this animation is just. 😘👌🏾 Also the breakdown at "I love you, baby". Nevermind that it is synonymous with tragedy and trauma. King Gnu clearly must have known that when signing on since a great deal of JJK songs are theirs

More Than Words - Again, simple illustration but also capturing this idea of youth for the trio which... after S2 is so *melt emoji*?? I think the theme of romanticizing life and their connection to one another while actively contrasting with murder and mayhem is so funny to me. 🥲

God tier level looping, tbh. Ty for your service @osakaxkobe

MHA

Def more of a casual enjoyer for the music on MHA. Especially since the brain rot for this series didn't set in for a very long time so I had to go back and look up each song.

Peace Sign - my niece and nephew dance to this song dramatically and, knowing none of the words confidently, sing anyway. I think it's the instrumentals and the clapping that does it for me haha

Odd Future - lowkey meets the "appears on shuffle without being too embarrassing" requirement but, with MHA being as pervasive as it is... will not beat the weird kid allegations if this pops up because I think it's recognizable

Merry Go Round - That "Hey Brother Listen" popped off so does the crescendo.

Hitamuki - I just like the graphical switch up to the comic book style because isn't it so silly and cute just to preface some trauma??

North Wind - are you kidding me? Showing all these critical moments from Deku's first. person. perspective. to elevate how important the people shown are when we've had largely the whole story from his actual first person perspective? As he's running to catch up to everything the story has built up to like running through a museum exhibit. Inspired. Beautiful. No notes.

Sketch - for the depression. ✨

Datte Atashi no Hero - just... fantasy AU. Song I can do without but who am I to ignore the best AU illustrated and animated? A nobody, that's who.

Believe - Hawks really said "The next time the cherry blossoms fall, I hope we will all be smiling" and then everything went to shit.

Shout Baby - less song more visual commentary. Hero or villain, it all started where Class 1A is right now, some of it even sooner (like with Tenko).

animal : i don’t have a favourite animal nor one i associate with myself… you can choose for me :)

movie : my top 4 favourite movies are before sunrise, top gun maverick, back to the future and little miss sunshine.

season : spring! definitely the best season. i mean there’s flowers, we don’t have to wear jackets and the sun is starting to come back!

character : my favourite characters of all times are victor (from mlqc) and sam (from spn). i don’t think i associate with any character though.

Thank you @skzonthebrain for the tag ❤️

My top five weird questions to get to know people better! (And what are my answers!)

1: If you had to comfort a friend who lost a person who was an asshole to you, would you do it?

I need to comfort my friend who's not an asshole so yes, I'd love to but I'm not good at comforting people. I'm good at cuddling though (?)

2: If you had to choose one book/movie trope that you could actually experience for an entire week what would it be?

I like sci-fi so maybe time-travel tropes? I'd like to see all the possibilities I'd get if I alter the timeline. Also, I'd love to live the alternate universe trope, same me but in a different universe, preferably where I am bestfriend with Felix.

3: If you had to choose a celebrity to binge watch an entire season of a show with, who would you choose and what would be the show?

Definitely watching the Gudetama series on Netflix with Felix, I think Bbokari and Shakipiyo should be besties! And I'm in the middle of binge-ing Brooklyn 99 so I think Han and I would have great laughs together watching this.

4: A flavour of ice cream you could eat for the rest of your life?

Chocolate with a sprinkle of salt on top. Don't ask.

5: If a song was played every time you walked into a room, what would the song be?

Depends! For a dramatic entrance, I'd either pick Nessun Dorma or Coolio's Gangsta paradise. When I feel like bad bitch, I'd choose Saoko by Rosalia or Backstreet Freestyle by Kendrick Lamar. I'm in my villain era so maybe I'll choose New Magic Wand by Tyler the Creator or Ace of Spades by Motorhead. I have a whole playlist of entrance songs tbh.

Tagging whoever wants to do it. No pressure!

hi again i forgot to ask but im genuinely curious whos your fave from mental as anything sorryy <333

cara irpo32pjrbewrefjpoknflej;klnf;knlfjknlfbdklnfn marry me i swear to god!!! YOU ASKING ME THIS ACTUALLY MADE MY DAY <3!!!

it's greedy!! i know i'm gonna get really sappy and a little bit emotional talking about him because he means so much to me. he really does. i don't want to be all cliche and whatever but his music changed my life. for real. one time i went laid on the floor and listened to fundamental as anything and just sobbed. sobbed my little eyes out. because of how much his lyrics meant to me. all of his songs always have these little touches of sweetness, say a song like spirit got lost. really it’s about spooky season and ghost and ooOooOOoO HOWEVER he just HAD to include the line ‘they’ll always be a chair for you in the corner of my heart’ i mean WHAT IN TH E HONEST FUCKKKKKKKK that lines launches into the fucking sun every time i hear. i listen to that line. blackout and then play it again. like my heart honestly swells so much because it’s so sweet!! it really is!! another song which makes my brain rot is ‘let’s go to paradise’, which in itself is quite a sweet and romantic song, with its line ‘don’t you wonder about the time that you spent wasting your own when you could be wasting mine?” I MEAN WHO HONESTLY WRITES STUFF LIKE THIS!!!! he’s just a big teddy bear, a wonderful little marshmallow!! he’s also quite funny, i remember an interview where he was talking about food and dinner wines and suddenly casually dropped that he was the reason his brother broke up his six month engagement. like honey i didn’t need to know that but you know what?? i’m glad i do now!!! i also LOVE seeing the development he has as a songwriter, his songs were mostly album fillers which doesn’t mean he didn’t have a banger each album which can be seen here now GO!

get wet! - insurance man

espresso bongo - won’t let me drive

cats & dogs - too many times

creatures of leisure - bitter to swallow

fundamental - date with destiny 

mouth to mouth - my door is always open to you

literally chef’s kiss to all of these songs. but really the first songs/singles were all martin’s and reg’s songs, and of course being that they are songs from this band, they slap so hard. so hard. oh my god. BUT greedy barely had any songs, at most he had three on each album up until fundamental. this is literally stretching it but to me he was kinda like the george harrison of the group where he was kinda in the background just doing his own thing and then suddenly he goes BOOM! i give you live it up, top twenty hit song in ten countries!! and while i’m at it - you’re so strong! oh? that isn’t enough??? DATE WITH DESTINY THEN BABY!! literally the first THREE SINGLES from their best selling album are from greedy. like i don’t think you understand, where is the appreciation for this sudden transformation??? my king deserves much more respect than that !!! and then greedy really does become the main guy for writing the singles, and produces banger after banger and honestly it’s such a blessing. martin once said he loved all the songs greedy has written because same same. i get u martin baby!!

look the reason i do love him so much is because with his songs, he does bring so much joy to my life especially in a period in my life where it was just awful. without going into too much detail as i will have a breakdown, live it up saved my life, because it made me feel like i was seen and loved after a very traumatic event, like greedy himself wrote it for me. like yes it is very much a pop song, in some way it can be seen as quite silly, my dad always sings ‘get it up’ rather than live it up but even HE KNOWS the connection i have with this, it’s my baby. it’s my oxygen supply, my bloodline. i saw someone say that mental as anything gave up their “quirkiness” when they released this and i got SO OFFENDED. this is literally a man talking to someone about how the whole world would literally collapse if they smiled -  how can you NOT explode hearing that?? please greedy sir warm my hands against the cold <3 it’s always a song i use when talking about why music means so much to me, it’s that song that allowed me experience connection and just a reminder that everything is going to be ok. weirdest song to have that kinda emotional response to but i don’t care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Random and not fic related but I see you have anime in your bio so I was wondering what animes are your favorites or what you’ve watched recently <3

Ahh, yes!! Secretly hoped someone would ask this because I just love talking about anime, so I’ll give my top 5!

Violet Evergarden. I’m a shonen fan, and like this show’s premise isn’t my normal cup of tea, but god do I love this show so freaking much. And the second movie. God, it was such the perfect end to the series. Like this show just hits you in all the feels and there’s no questions here about it being my favorite. I’ve never cried so much before, but it also just leaves you all warm and fuzzy too. I recommend it all the time and people will be like, yeah, I wasn’t a fan, and I’m like, you didn’t finish it did you, and they were like, no. And that’s why. The composer for the anime has literally been in my top five artists on Spotify the past two years.

Hunter x Hunter. The Phantom Troupe, I love them. And yeah, I love the story and it’s fun, but The Phantom Troupe is what makes it for me. Well, that and Hisoka. I love my chaotic and edgy characters. (I’ve actually been writing a hisoka x reader/chrollo x reader fic for like a year now and might start posting it here soon. Been into instrumentals lately for music again, and it’s been feeding my Chrollo fascination. Like I really want to write for this man right now) also, departure was my #1 most listened to song this year and I was surprised. Didn’t realize I listened to it that much.

Jujutsu Kaisen. This and HxH are a little interchangeable, just depends on my mood. But god, I love it. Like, the characters are all soo good. Finding decent female characters in anime can sometimes be hard, probably cause I watch a lot of shonen, but still, women are so much more than fan service. But this show. Like, such strong characters and I freaking love Maki. I’ve also wrote a little of a gojo x reader/geto x reader, but it’s probably not reached the point where I can start posting anytime soon. Also, Lost in Paradise is soooo good. In my top 5 songs of the year as well.

Death Parade. Guys, this anime freaking broke me. Of all the animes I’ve watched, this and Violet Evergarden just hit me in the feels. It does deal with the topic of suicide (as it’s a show about death) so be warned if that’s something you struggle with! I definitely struggled the first time and i legit just kind of laid there for hours after completing, but god, is it so good. That and Flyers is also a bop. Best anime intro and nothing will ever beat it for me. But be warned, that intro is the most deceiving intro you will ever watch for a show.

Spy x Family. This show is just so cute. Like, I’ve never giggled or laughed as much in an anime before. It’s just so wholesome and cute and I absolutely live for it. All I need is for yor and loid to fall in love and I will die happy.

Honorable mentions: Kabanari of the Iron Fortress, Kotaro Lives Alone, Your Lie in April, My Hero Academia, Mob Pyscho 100, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood

Currently watching: Bungo Stray Dogs, Spy x Family, Chainsaw Man, and rewatching Soul Eater (one of the first animes I ever watched like way back in jr. high)

[ragsy]

1 2 3 and 17 for music asks ❤️

1. What is/are your top album(s) this year?

In terms of hours listened, probably a solid tossup between Will Wood's in case I make it and Autoheart's Hellbent, but in case I make it wins by merit of I LITERALLY could not make myself listen to anything else while I was fixated on this album, lmao

2. Name some of your top songs from this year.

I've listened to this song so many times I think my brain wrinkles are different now. One of those songs that starts out gentle and it builds and builds and builds until you're screaming yourself hoarse and you're out of breath and suddenly it's all okay again

It's good, it's what I'm saying

and on the opposite end of the spectrum is this one which is loud and obnoxious and goofy and just a lot of fun

3. Name five artists you wish more people knew about.

That Handsome Devil: okay so imagine if Satan were a chinpanzee who hangs out in a dive bar and is also like if cigarette smoke were a person and also made just the nastiest, most grimy jams known to humankind

Dengue Fever: Cambodian rock with flavors of 60s and 70s psychedelica and also it fucks hard

The Altogether: singer songwriters with just a really powerful sense of human-ness. Beautiful stuff. (Also BDG used to be a member before he moved to LA)

Crooks & Nannies: synthy indie rock with super infectious off kilter lyrics. Sorta feels like the musical equivalent of wearing the random shit you find while cleaning your closet before you unearth a lost trinket that unlocks a memory that shakes you to your core

E.VAX: evan mast of ratatat doing his own thing. Chill beats with a tinge of melancholy

17. What does music mean to you?

I don't watch a lot of movies or TV and I don't read a ton anymore, so music is the media I consume that makes me Feel the most. I also have sensory issues with sound but when it's my own tunes in my ears it's a bubble of paradise that make my dopamine receptors go absolutely hogwild. Also also my dad has always been a huge audiophile so I guess I get that from him, hahah
