happy concert week everyone 😫😫😫

started chamber singers rehearsal off strong with tita conductor advertising the orchestra concert and announcing i was principal second violinist again. everyone let out a “woo!” and i stared at the floor doing a shaun the sheep human smile. jesus christ tita how many times…

she also referred to me as “multitalented em” in front of everyone like, i know she’ll have me for the next five years but i cannot live with her treating me like her specialest little meow meow. but that should be my drag name actually

there were concert posters in a new colorway and i decided to nab one for my apartment and tita conductor said “em is single-handedly promoting this” as she handed it to me and i was thinking like beloved i’ve already done my time (put up posters on all the bulletin boards in the engineering building) this is for my decor 😭

we circled up and worked on the arrangement of tumbalalayka and while tita conductor was working with the basses the altos in their little corner were making up a little dance behind her back and i was losing it

had a great time singing and came back for orchestra an hour later to find out once more that starting the britten first thing in a rehearsal never ends well for me. thank god it’ll be the end of the first half in the concert

we were short a clarinet so tita conductor was quietly warbling its little moment at the end of the britten second movement like “doo bee dah dee boo dee” 😭🤚🏼

tita conductor accidentally said “excellent!” before the last note of a movement and said “oops! sorry!” as we pointedly blasted the last note at her

there’s a bit in my part of the last movement of the britten matinées musicales that quite literally sounds like the rhythm under the beginning of one direction what makes you beautiful and it always makes me laugh

“let me just say it is a short fermata, it is not a ‘put bow on lap’ sort of fermata, it is a short fermata” -tita conductor

“J keeps on sempre animando-ing to the presto!”

tita conductor cut off everyone during the menotti by saying “okay. good. SHUSH!” and then turning to the cellos said “it’s just like. a mist. your only function is to tell us what key we’re in.” and the associate principal cellist lost it giggling

“this is a true Romantic notion. it’s not just [tita conductor] talking”

tita conductor stopped me right before my solo and actually turned to the seconds at a part where we are chronically soft (though when are we fucking NOT.) and said “okay seconds it’s time for some pride.” 💀

the second time we got to the solos littlebrothercore concertmaster had an accident on one of his notes, leaving me high and dry by myself

principal trumpet texted me from the back “GREAT VOLUME!” 💀 i set him to rights after rehearsal

tita conductor asked concertmaster “was i not clear?” and he said “the wrong note came out” in the weakest saddest voice and she said all innocently “came out? that’s weird!”

“in the manner of my two you will know where the and of two is and won’t have to ask. and don’t ask me how i’ll do that, but i will.”

tita conductor leaned over the stands at a part where the seconds are prominent and growled “WHERE’S👹YOUR👹PRIDE?!!!👹👹👹” at us and when i bit down a little harder with my bow she said “yes! ✨🥰😌”

i still sound terrible during my solo. fucking hell

during the dvořák third movement half the orchestra thought we were moving to the coda and half thought we were going to the second half and tita conductor said “okay let’s do the coda. since you’re so smart…” and my deskie and i giggled

frankly. the fourth movement of the dvořák is under-rehearsed and i am scared for that. but i managed to send out an email so i hope, desperately, that it’ll work out well in the end

anyways!! one more rehearsal!

😒 💀 👻 👀 💩 for Georgia + one oc of your choice

thank you bo !! georgia + allison bc they're og babygirls

get to know people in my oc's life

😒 …someone my muse hates.

The obvious answer for Georgia is Kellogg. Not a very interesting answer, but she hates the guy more than she's ever hated anything. Vault-Tec may have changed the trajectory of her life forever via cryo, but Kellogg tore it apart in front of her & inflicted so much trauma. We're getting closer to her fight with him in BLP & I am so excited lmao.

Allison hates Cullen with a passion. His "mages aren't people like you and me" comment pushed what would have been regular hatred of a templar into burning rage. She doesn't wanna be the exception. Being a mage is who she is & she's still a person despite it. When she visits Skyhold later on she definitely brings it up in front of the Inquisitor & the rest of their advisors, just to be petty.

💀 …someone my muse would kill for.

Without a doubt Georgia would & has killed for her son. The first time it was Kellogg, before she knew Shaun grew up & eventually figured out the ten year old she saw in his memories & inside the Institute was a synth. Even after she takes in synth!Shaun, by the end of the game she's already sold herself as the kind of person who wants to make the world a safer place for her family by any means.

Allison is kind of in the same boat--she's killed for family & for friends. She values her relationships to the rest of the Kirkwall crew highly & like. All of their personal quests involve some sort of killing lmao. She killed people in pursuit of her baby brother when he got nabbed. Allison repeatedly & willingly puts herself on the line for those she loves.

👻 …someone my muse considers a best friend.

Georgia's bestie is a hard tie between Preston & Piper. Preston was there from the beginning & they leaned on each other a lot in the early days after she left the vault. He taught her the basics of surviving in the new world she found herself in & she served as inspiration to keep going for him. He's her right hand man & she probably trusts him the most out of all of her companions. Piper serves best as a friend Georgia can chill out & gossip with, the kind of friend she sorely needed before the bombs. Piper is funny & loud & unafraid to be herself or express her opinions & Georgia truly admires that about her.

Allison's best friend is, of course, Varric. He talks about her like she hung the moon & Allison made him the fucking godfather of her child. She loves the man like family. Besides Varric, though, since he's the obvious choice, I think her next best friend would be Isabela. She's the most chill out of all the companions & the best at providing a break when Allison needs one. She also loves hearing about Bela's time at sea :)

👀 …someone my muse likes, but doesn’t trust.

Georgia likes Deacon but doesn't trust him as far as she can throw him (on account of the fact that he was technically stalking her even if it was for "the greater good"). She thinks he's funny & likes hanging out with him on Railroad stuff, but she basically treats him like a coworker.

Allison likes but does not trust Sebastian. Tbh I haven't really played much with him all that much but even if I did, his (admittedly somewhat understandable) reaction at the end of Act 3 would be her cut off point. Threaten her lover like that after years of being friends with her? You're done lmao. Post-DA2 Allison sees Sebastian as former friend but now a distant threat (distant so long as she & Anders can keep safe in hiding).

💩 …someone my muse dislikes, but admires.

Georgia & Cait don't get along very well due to opposing personalities & morals, but Georgia does admire her! Cait is everything Georgia isn't: tough, strong, & doesn't fall to social pressures. Georgia sees traits in Cait that she wishes came easier to her & in a way she's kind of jealous.

Allison isn't too fond of Samson for obvious reasons (since he is an ex-templar) but admires the fact that he put his neck on the line to assist mages. Overall she thinks he's pretty skeevy but overlooks that fact whenever they interact over the course of the game. If/when she got the news that he was leading the Red Templars for Corypheus, any goodwill she had left was probably diminished.

hihi pandora! can i ask 2. 3 things I love, 16. Meaning behind my URL, and 54. My top 5 blogs on tumblr for your ask game :D hope your cramps get better soon 😣 ~ann:>

2. 3 things i love

UM UM UMMMM color meanings and associations!!! in my brain everything is assigned to colors and i get meanings or things i think would be that color!! like to me, spontaneity is a lime green and joy is red!!! and music!!!! literally any time you wanna tell me a song you’re listening to or want song recs, i’m your girl i’ve got 7,652 songs on my spotify liked rn LOL 💀and ummmm oh!!! COFFEE! hot coffee cold coffee bitter coffee sweet coffee i love it, i like trying out new ones or new creamers too bc it just means i can figure out what i really like instead of just liking what i’m used to!!

16. meaning behind my url

every time i get asked this question it’s a riot. tell me, ann, what do you think stars taste like? genuinely asking!! this is the question i asked that started it all LOL. i was in a discord gc w the very first round of mutuals i made, and even now i still chat with most of them often but few only rarely due to life!! and when i asked that question the entire chat had been spamming and firing off chatter and they all just stopped and everyone said . what. why would you ask that LOL and some said spicy (you’re still wrong months later@jupitersmiles) and some said bitter and some sweet, and i said i think if given the opportunity to taste a star (excusing it would burn me alive duh) it would be sour. like a warhead, specifically. and lukas (prev @) went head to head on it for a while LMAO! but from then on i had already been wanting to change it and so i came up with tons of names and when i thought of sourstars i was like oh that’s it. that’s the one. and when i saw it wasn’t taken i nabbed it >:)
