I noticed that Matt and Beth tend to (whether willingly or accidentally) create really well earned happy endings for their characters whereas Freddie and Will are really good at ending their characters on bittersweet, or even just straight up tragic notes in a way that feels incredibly fitting. If I had to put it succinctly I guess it'd be:

Matt and Beth's PCs and kin: The narrative feels inevitable but is excapable. You're out and you can heal.

Will's PCs and kin: The narrative is escapable, but not without changing you on a fundimental level. The choices you've made while escaping the narrative haunt you for life.

Freddie's PCs and kin: The narrative feels inevitable and is escapable, but it would require an incredible amount of introspection that this character simply isn't capable of.

y'all will never understand adam parrish the way i do until ur stuck in a prison of your own making in an expensive private school surrounded by people who are richer and more well-adjusted than you and you're trying desperately to fit in and be like them and study hard and be the best so you can graduate at the top of the class and make it far far away from your shitty town and your shitty family and make money and a life that's better than the one you have now and all your friends are better off than you and they don't really understand you but you love them anyway but you are alone you will always be alone.

One gorgeous stary night a few short years ago, I accepted and embraced the existence of the multiverse, because I was so sure that Taylor Swift and Azula are the same person from different universes. Miss Swift kept proving me right through her songs.

A year ago, Taylor's most recent album, Midnights, came out and one of the songs on that album just proved my theory yet again.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, Dear Reader.

The Bolter by Taylor Swift is extremely Vex’ahlia De Rolo coded and if you’ve read Kith and Kin you know exactly what I’m talking about

[cancerravenclaw]

knots.

a wolfstar micro-fic: 511 words.

inspired by tequila and listening to folklore, so yes, angst is implied. dedicated to anyone who ties themselves up in knots.

Sirius used to feel fate like an instrument beneath his fingers. Content to sit there plucking away at the marionette strings that tugged him this way and that, happy to give way to the pendulum swing of it all. Going and flowing, calling it his will.

The first string of fate was made up of shiny gold knotted around his pinky finger, tugging at him gently and beckoning him towards a good thing. A safe path to follow; a yellow-brick road he clacked down in his magic ruby slippers. There was no need to worry about where it led—just put one foot in front of the other. Step, and step, and step again. He’d seen the movie after all; he knew the ending, had memorized it by heart. It wasn’t until his feet ached and his breath came short that he looked up to find himself lost—a stranger in a land he didn’t belong to.

The yellow-brick road turned to cement, his slippers no longer offered him a there’s no place like home. Home wasn’t here. Home wasn’t anywhere.

The string turned silver and then black. A step backward and it snapped.

Left in that limbo of abandonment and freedom, Sirius felt the tug of the next and followed, not thinking twice about the way it yanked him forward headfirst, offering him only a chance, a run down a steep path. One that had him chasing and chasing with the promise of new and this one must be right. What had he gotten lost for if not to be found?

So he closed his eyes and just swung, a trust fall with nothing to catch him but a fraying thread of fate.

The give was sudden, the crash was harsh. On the ground with nothing but scraps of what remained of his fates, Sirius scrambled on hands and knees to clutch what was left—binding his own hands with loose ends. Tying himself and the threads of fate cut short into knots and knots and knots. Ties that wouldn’t hold, that slipped and pulled apart when he tried to stand, tried to move.

He hoped that maybe if he just offered himself bound and gagged for the next string to do as it willed, it might not leave him directionless again. Begging to be drug forward with the sour taste of dirt and shame in his mouth, Sirius resigned himself to let it just for reprieve from the heaviness. He found himself looking up at the sky, just begging for that great puppeteer to reach down and just give him one more chance. Give him another part to play. Give him another reason—lift him up and swing him one way or the other.

And then came Remus with nimble fingers and precise eyes, tugging and pulling at the knots until the binds were gone. Sirius looked down at his wrists—scarred and bloody and rubbed raw from it all.

But they were his and they were free.

There were no more strings.

Remus reached out in offering, and Sirius reached back.

A love without reign.

Hi, it's me, your favourite Taylor Swift obsessed Azula fan. I decided to start a new series where I prove that the existence of Azula is the inspiration for Taylor Swift's whole career.

Today, we're starting with "Mad Woman" from Folklore, which is Taylor's 8ty studio album

Now, Taylor likes to say that this song is about Scooter Braun, who stole her first six albums and made her go mad, because he is the owner of the songs she wrote in her childhood bedroom.

But we all know that's not true. It's about the people that damaged Azula to the point she has a breakdown. Specifically, it focuses on how Azula felt during the mistreatment she received from the gaang in The Search, and why she snapped at them all the time, as well as how infuriating it was for her that the hallucination of Ursa pretended to care about her.

Next is "Closure" from Evermore, Taylor's 9ty studio album:

The idea behind Closure is a refusing to grant forgiveness to someone who has wronged you. The story that forms into the brain of a listener as this song plays, is that of a person that has wronged the singer and asks for forgiveness, despite not feeling bad for their actions, just for the sake of closure, but the singer refuses to grind said forgiveness, believing that this person is worthy of always having is open, untreated, unaddressed wound.

Fans believe that it is possible for this song to be about Scooter Braun as well, or about one of Taylor's exes, but in reality it is about one of Azula's family members, possibly Zuko, wanting to be on good terms with her to complete his idea of family that he wishes for, but Azula is not ready to forget or forgive the abuse she had to survive in the asylum.

Third, and final song of this post, is "It's Time To Go", which is also from the album Evermore

Scooter Braun... blah blah blah... It's about the record label that she worked with for 15 years... blah blah blah... Before the label got sold to Scooter who now own her masters and her past and has them frozen behind glass... blah blah blah. That's what the internet says. But I know. And you know.

It's about Ozai and how he used Azula all her life, ever since she was born, all the way to the moment she run away from the palace and her family and his manipulations in the end of The Search, when she was about 15 years old. It's about how Ozai had all of her, controlled her like a puppet and how she sacrificed and gave everything for him and to him, into she snapped, run away, and found a purpose for herself that isn't serving her abusive father.

And if anyone wants to listen to this songs, or just those specific moments from those songs, please keep in mind that the top lyrics from each photo plays at the exact minutes and second that is seen at the bottom left of the photo it belongs to.

Surprising Inspiration

I hadn't really listen to any of Taylor Swift's songs before but I was feeling curious so I opened up Spotify, typed in her name, and hit play. It's set on shuffle so has been bouncing around her albums.

Like what I'm hearing so far.

And to my surprise, some of the songs have given some inspiration for a Michael Kinsella x Reader series. The three songs that grabbed my imagination are Blank Space, Wildest Dream, and Don't Blame Me.

Thinking that a Reader with a weakness for bad boys meets Michael at a bar. Starts off casual but soon there are feelings.

My mutuals who are Swifties (or anyone else who finds this post), any songs to recommend?

[charliethinks]
