[transrevolutions]

got any Marius headcanons? also I promise the college AU will be out in like a week

god this is so incredibly late I'm so sorry. with that being said:

(these are modern au, I'm in that kind of mood rn)

-marius likes classical music more than any other genre. he enjoys going to local orchestra concerts.

-marius and enjolras are actually really good friends, especially once marius has been around courfeyrac/the rest of the abc enough to get some Coherent Political Stances. they don't see eye to eye 100% of the time but they always have interesting conversations over coffee. autism-to-autism communication, etc.

-he's the sole Token Straight of the abc/abc adjacent folks (I'm sorry bi marius enjoyers, I see you, for me he just exudes confused ally token straight vibes. he has two gfs tho if that counts).

-on the subject of the two girlfriends: in my head there is a very funny dynamic where, at least to start, marius has a massive crush on cosette, who has a massive crush on eponine, who has a massive crush on... marius. this goes on for quite some time before any of them actually realize.

-he's generally a very stay-off-to-the-side, let-others-take-the-lead sort of person, except for some very specific moments where there'll be some sort of crisis and he'll just. come up with the wildest fucking idea that somehow ends up working (i.e. canon era blowing up the barricade). if enjolras has "occasional outbursts of eloquence", marius has occasional outbursts of tactical brilliance.

-he's on the prelaw track. bahorel (ex-law student from way back when, hates the subject on principle), bossuet (in a casual situationship with the idea of being a lawyer), and courfeyrac (almost did law school but last-minute switched to education and never looked back) constantly bother and tease him about it.

-one time very early on he was at a small rally and struck up a long and cordial-ish conversation with javert. enjolras rarely gets visibly angry with marius (he saves it for The System), but he just about bit his head off that time. (for context: do not fucking talk to cops, and especially not at a protest.)

-harbored some not-so-great preconceived notions about criminals/the justice system that were leftovers from being raised by his grandfather. this ended up being a sticking point in his relationship with cosette (valjean being her dad and an ex-con) and with eponine (career criminal parents). eventually comes around on this matter, but it takes a while.

I actually had a lot of fun making these! thanks for the ask!

[chxrrywines]

fave song on each album?

i’m taking this as each taylor swift album but AAAH I LOVE THIS QUESTION i could yap about music forever ESPECIALLY taylor swift

for debut it’s probably a perfectly good heart!! mary’s song is SUCH a close second for the storytelling and just how perfect it is but i’ve always adored apgh i LOVE songs that have such a pretty outro, i love the way it sounds and her vocals and ugh debut is so underrated. i honestly think i’m more excited for taylor swift tv over reputation tv, i can’t wait to hear the difference in her vocals over the two albums!!

for fearless it’s bye bye baby!! i have NEVER seen anybody rank it as their top song or even their top fearless song it’s SO underrated i am so so so insanely in love with the instrumental, the lyrics are BEAUTIFUL her vocals are on point it’s SO perfect but i’m more than happy to keep it as a little gem for myself 🫶 i NEED her to play it before the end of the eras tour or i’ll need some kind of reparations

for speak now it’s TIMELESS!!!! i remember sitting and listening to speak now tv for the first time and as soon as “in the 1500s off in a foreign land” started i knew it would be a favourite. it was actually my #1 taylor song for a long while until i really started to get into evermore. it’s perfect storytelling it’s so sweet and romantic and i’m in love with the sound of the song i physically can’t skip this one

for red it’s probably all too well 10 minutes but that’s a boring basic answer so my other favourite is everything has changed!! i’ve only been like a “swiftie” since red tv dropped but when i was younger there were certain taylor swift songs i’d play on repeat and watch the music video over and over and one of them was everything has changed!! the music video in itself is one of my favourites ever it’s so sweet, i’m also a HUGE fan of ed sheeran X is one of my favourite albums of all time. this song was so important to me as a little girl and will always be one of my favourites

1989 is so hard because it’s a perfect album imo it was my first CD i ever owned and my favourite re-record so far and so many are my favourite songs of all time (you are in love, clean, is it over now?) but going a bit basic for my absolute favourite but i have to pick style!! it is THE pop song it’s my favourite pop song ever i cant think of a song with a better instrumental, it was also one of the taylor swift songs i was obsessed with as a little girl and every time it comes on i turn up the volume all the way and listen so intently. i love blank space and shake it off but style might be THE taylor swift song with her fuck ass bob paired with

for reputation for so long my favourite song was so it goes but honestly now i think it’s dancing with our hands tied!!! it might be my favourite instrumental on the album and the song feels like the heart of what reputation is trying to encapsulate as an album if that makes sense, finding love in such a messy time and trying to cling to that. the lyricism is so gorgeous and i’m so so so in love with every aspect of it

for lover honestly another basic answer again (lover is probably my least favourite which i hate saying because i ADORE it) but cruel summer!! it feels like the style of lover if that makes sense, it’s another iconic pop song. the instrumental is one of my absolute favourites ever and it’s so FUN too. though i never got the opportunity to go to the eras tour it will always make me think of it!!

for folklore it’s such a hard pick because i resonate with so many tracks from this album but probably seven!! the song itself is so pretty, the way it builds into something really beautiful and elegant. i’ve always resonated really tightly with the meaning behind this song and i think it really encapsulates the feeling of being a little girl so well. thinking that the awful things that happen to your friends are genuine ghosts or monsters, planning on running away and playing pretend to cheer your friend up, that glow of childlike innocence. sometimes i can’t listen to it because it makes me cry but it’s one of the most beautiful songs i’ve ever heard

for evermore it’s COWBOY LIKE ME!!!! my favourite taylor swift song ever from my favourite album EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SONG IS JUST SO SO SO PERFECT. the duet and the soothing instrumental and the way it progresses and the storytelling in the lyrics. i often see debates over whether cowboy like me is a love song or a tragedy and honestly i really do think it’s a tragedy. “forever is the sweetest con” is probably the most tragic love lyric i’ve ever heard in my life whilst the song is still so incredibly romantic. it’s also so destiel coded and if i can’t find a fic based on this song i really think i’ll have to write it myself

for midnights it’s high infidelity!! midnights is so full of gems and honestly i only have two or three skips but there’s something about high infidelity that scratches my brain just right. it might be because honestly it sounds like an evermore track, but the way she sings the lyrics and the way it sounds is just PERFECT. i honestly think i like midnights more than reputation which i know is a super hot take

for the tortured poet’s department it’s THE BOLTER!!! my second favourite song ever EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SONG IS SO SO PERFECT!! the way the instrumental builds and the strings come in and it makes you just want to sway and float, the lyrics and the way she sings them and the story it builds and UGH im so insanely in love with the song the bolter is MY song. when ttpd was first announced i pre-ordered the manuscript cd (i have a cd collection hehe) before the other editions were announced but when the bolter was released it’s the only time i’ve let myself buy two of the same album to get the bolter edition (and i gave the other edition to my mum)

you didn’t ask me to do this but since i’ve yapped SO much (i’m sorry) i’ll rank them !!

cowboy like me

the bolter

timeless

seven

style

everything has changed

bye bye baby

a perfectly good heart

dancing with our hands tied

cruel summer

The Adventure of the Telltale Flower

“What happened?” I asked him again, “Who hurt you?” My mind was racing. Had it been some thug in the street? A lover? The police?!

I received nothing but an abrupt headshake in return. Holmes was still pressing his hand to his chest as if he could make the flower disappear, and in the grimace on his face, pain and mortification mingled.

Dedicated to a Happier Year

“Gay?” Edwin tilted his head to the side. In his experience, homosexuality was far from gay. The chanting of Merry Ann had been the macabre lullaby that his killers had sung him to death with; Edwin had undergone decades of torture, he suspected, as a direct result of his suspected inclinations. No, there was no joy in being a homosexual, in Edwin’s opinion. Charles was simply using odd language again. “Yeah. It means, like… you know. When two blokes fancy each other, they’re gay.” “Oh.” Edwin pivoted to face Charles. “So, gay is something of a synonym for homosexual, then?” “Yeah.” Charles grinned. “Yeah, it is.” “An odd linguistic choice, I must say. Back in my day, gay meant that someone was quite happy.” “Well, those chaps look happy, don’t they? So, I don’t know. Maybe it isn’t too far off the mark.” - Or, the five times Edwin learned more about homosexuality (and the one time he was happy that the concept applied to him.)

Hi! Back in January I was @missyclara13. Good to see you're still here. How's life been these past months?

Hey hi

Good to see you back again. Yep still here, will probably stick around till I have nothing much to see or post and get bored. Lol! As long as I’m still into Eddie, and Newt or find other fandom interests I’ll stick around. Besides I’ve made some really fun and lovely friends on here, and again I’d hate to lose contact with them. I don’t like losing things, and that includes friends. Especially friends. 😉

Life has been ok I guess, ups and downs as it is. How are things with you? I hope life is good for you too.

But, the lovely @m1chyb33 me a pic to share, so I'll do that. 😍
