AGTG MUSIC HEAD CANONS

Disclaimer: all of these music recs are from the mid 2000s and before as aftg is based in 2006-2007

Andrew- rage punk kick the shit out of you music. Platform stompers and anti-government yelling. Pretty pretentious. Hard rock/ art rock (tool, deftones, system of a down, queens of the Stone Age, sonic youth, mcr). Fist pumping and lighters waving at concerts with pits (but he doesn’t go into them cause of touching). He’s a headphones kinda guy, doesn’t like playing his music out loud, but will turn it up loud in his car. rolls his eyes at mainstream pop punk but usually knows the most popular songs (I see you saying p!atd sucks and knowing every lyrics to I write sins) Listens to Nicky/Erik’s soft German folk music in secret (taken to his GRAVE) to relax, along with shoegaze prolly.

Neil- casual listener, never used to listen to music when on the run cause it was a distraction and you always gotta be vigilant but Matt gets him into 2000s alt music. He listens on the treadmill usually. He prolly likes the killers. Anything with killers vibes. Prolly likes older 70s rock as well (I saw someone say he would like the song American girl and I liked that). Likes headphones, never has strong opinions on music. Thinks Andrew’s is too loud on most occasions (and Andrew scoffs at him for it)

Matt- mostly likes rock/ pop punk and rap! He likes heavy pit concerts he can slam around in, loud music to run to etc etc. his taste in rap and pop punk is pretty good (prolly like the all-American rejects, OutKast, etc). ALSO. has a not-so-secret love for girl pop because of the upperclassman girls. He DOES know all the lyrics to Britney spears most popular songs and fergalicious. Him and Allison jam out. Likes to play his music out loud and LOVES having the aux cord. Good at people pleasing when it comes to music and can play what everyone likes (as best he can)

Allison- GIRL POP ALL THE WAYYY. Will throw it back to any popular girl artists of the early 2000s (Rihanna, lady gaga, Miley Cyrus, Britney, fergie, kesha, Gwen stefani,) and knows allllll the lyrics. Has no shame plays all her music out loud. Does not care what the crowds want. Will dance with whoever is closest (usually Renee, Matt, or Dan, and sometimes the unsuspecting Neil who ends up being grinded on by someone at least 5 inches taller than him)

Kevin - classical music, the insufferable history nerd (I love you kev). Instrumentals because the foxes are loud and talk enough for him not to need words. Prolly knows the popular radio songs to stay caught up in pop culture if he’s ever asked his favourite song in an interview (cater to the masses). Listens to Jean’s favourite French artists when nostalgic. Charles Aznavour. Doesn’t really listen to music in public and rolls his eyes whenever the foxes turn anything on even if he enjoys it. Will yell at the foxes when they get distracted by a pop song during practice.

Renee- Says she listens to anything because she doesn’t wanna sound rude or start any musical opinion arguments. Usually listens to whatever is on BUT her secret favourite is something like “Lamp”. Favours the softer songs in albums. Sparring to ‘For Lovers’ type thing. Down to listen to Andrew’s heavy shit or Allison’s pop. Always open to listening to new artists but never found a specific favourite. Probably has a playlist dedicated to Disney soundtracks but no one has to know that, nor will they ever.

Aaron- on a s**cide mission listening almost exclusively to rap music. Most definitely got decked for it at least once by Andrew, simply because he was being pretentious and annoying, ended with a smashed CD player after it was thrown out the window. Despises headphones because “they can harm your eardrums” so Katelyn cries everytime he plays his music out loud. + Aaron would start singing along to the rap songs and gets 90% of the lyrics wrong. But also, he has a major soft spot for mcr, and when Katelyn gets into Taylor he listens with her “this is bad” *secretly likes it*

Nicky- Drug of choice: Britney Spears. Absolutely screams toxic, goes feral when Allison dresses up in Britney’s “baby one more time” school girl fit for Halloween. Adores dance music, is never hesitant to show everyone he’s got the moves of a god. EDM and club music reminds him of his time as a bartender at Eden’s but also 80s pop will always get him going. When he’s sad he listens to German folk music Erik has shown him, but it just makes him miss Erik more LMAO. Whenever anyone hears folk music in the dorms, they know Nicky’s moping and needs space. Will often listen to music out loud, but when strolling through campus he’ll have headphones on

Dan- Likes the club songs she used to dance to at the club, reminds her of her friends from home, and will often dance to them with Matt (create better memories). Beyoncé fan, sings her songs in the shower. Prolly gets Nicky obsessed as well. Often listens to whatever Matt likes as well, sometimes listens to songs Allison has shown her. Not really dedicated to a genre, likes everything, but mostly pop/ pop punk. Is very easy to please and can dance to anything especially if Matt is with her (or Allison/Renee)

Jean- French music exclusively.

Jeremy- surfer music LMAO

Wymack- classic rock (pretentious about it too)

Abby- radio music

I saw an interesting post a while back that said “Capcom made us [Miles and Diego/Godot] only have like two(?) interactions because they knew we would be unstoppable with a brother dynamic” and tbh it stuck with me bc it was intriguing.

So yeah that potential brotherhood, but that Godot/Diego AU I made (that I still need a name for)

Also I bet Gregory Edgeworth would have smelled like a bit like coffee, and so Diego just reminds Miles of that comforting presence 😭 (the von Karma estate was a tea household, so he didn’t smell much coffee after DL-6 and didn’t realize how much he missed it/reminded him of his father)

I love your art soooo much-it gives me life!! 🥰🥰🥰

I have a question about Milek and Jaskier! Milek says they fought before Jask went missing-what did they fight about? Did Milek say something he shouldn’t have? 👀😢 is there ANGST?

Also does Geralt know Mileks plush friend is called Roach? Because surely that’s a clue that Milek is his…(I love this universe so much)!!🥹❤️❤️❤️

[MASTERPOST] That was the last conversation they had before Milek stormed out - and when he came back, Jaskier was. gone. The thing is, Jaskier knows what Milek is interested in (and he is not even wrong about that, Milek has an interest in medicine, and helping people, and I think when they met he was Shanis biggest fan) and I think Jaskier is aware that some of the conflict does have its roots in Milek not wanting to leave him, even if they get really heated and ugly in their arguments. Milek shouldn't feel like he has to care for him, or have to protect him and at times I think Jaskier feels quite ashamed, which leads him to being way too unrelenting at times - especially if he thinks he's doing something to protect Milek.

What led to this (orufrey comic, cw an uncomfortable/creepy scene)

[july-19th-club]

house md wildest show on earth. a main character outright assassinates a known dictator, a moment that would be the very beginning or the mid-series crisis in any other show - an act which creates a power vacuum in a foreign nation already filled with child soldiers and genocide, and it's literally only brought up again throughout the season because that guy's wife divorces him over it. and occasionally to explore his relationship with who he is as a person and a catholic after having deliberately taken a life for what he calculates as the greater good, but mostly it's about his divorce

While I scream into the void of not finishing any art, have this silly oc interaction of Dandy and Will cause Will's hands are huge and I couldn't stop thinking about how tiny he'd make Dandy's hands look in comparison.

Will Wayward belongs to the lovely @kandavers

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.

to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!

i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.

also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.

they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.

they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.

i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

Irondad fic ideas #145

Scientists at Stark Industries frequently make groundbreaking discoveries. Since the work is collaborative, they also usually have long lists of acknowledgements at the end when publishing their research 

Post-NWH fic where someone notices a pattern in the published research from SI: for a period of several years, nearly every paper, from every department in the company, expressed gratitude to... empty space.

The name is not there. Clearly, it's meant to be. The pattern starts slow, with just a few papers, but it's soon present in every single one, and the praise is effusive. (Even during the Blip, researchers thanked this mystery person posthumously)

Then, not long after the return of half the population, the pattern just stops. No more mentions of the mystery team member. No more gaps in the acknowledgements page

Maybe it wouldn't be a big deal, maybe the whole thing would just stay as a niche mystery in the tech world... Except it can't. This question can't stay a small thing

Because Tony Stark, who has never worked with anyone except for occasionally Bruce Banner, thanks this empty space in his published work too.

Just who exactly is this person? 

Bonus:

The media dubs the missing person the "Stark Ghost"

Extra points if this fic follows either MJ, Ned, Pepper, a random curious citizen, a lowly SI worker, or Tony himself as they try to find answers

i’m aware i’m 100% alone in this, but i genuinely adore ascended astarion (especially when romanced) because of how—frankly—horrific it is. it’s simultaneously so cathartic in its brutality but so unsatisfying personally while managing to be narratively satisfying (just as his other outcome is, of course).

school is making me miserable so here's a doodle sheet of akechi truths. hope this helps

People just now realizing that Spy is not Just An Asshole cuz of the scrapped Meet The Spy is so funny to me, cuz Spy always read more like a "cold exterior to both make his job easier & protect his identity" instead of "asshole of all time with no redeeming quality". We can already see that in Expiration Date, in the comics where Spy gave Miss Pauling a pep talk, the Tom Jones scene!

He IS a part of the team, he respects his teammates, you just have to see past his exterior

How do you feel about the increase in really weird NSFW ads on here (advertising panels that look like sexual encounters, and AI art apps that pride themselves on porn) but will take down NSFW posts from their users, even if it isn't technically sexual.

i hate all social media and it's consistent prioritising the advertisers over the users and the internet simply was a better place before capitalism sunk its hooks into it
