I can ask a random frerard question! lol all evening I’ve been pondering if unholyverse will be the next fic-binding project I work on and thinking about what it would look like… so as someone else who has read the fic frequently I will poll you if you wanna answer - what images do you associate with the fic? (I have rosaries so far on my list bc obvious lol)

ive actually known multiple people who made physical copies of unholyverse so i feel like im a bad person to answer this because i don't want my answer to be influenced by things that people have already done you know....

but like at the same time, i think the series has some very obvious imagery, rosaries being obvious for sure. i think of those iconic like statues/paintings of mary with the pearlescent tears and anguished face, due to franks marian devotion. the seraph obviously.

and also one of the official art pieces for unholyverse is an image of frank and gerard with the red string of fate all tangled between their hands and i looooove that so i think that, since its bexless approved, is also cool

augh it really. REALLLYYYYY. hurts me

and then you know obvious things like priest collar, blood tbh, crown of thorns. and then like aside from religious imagery theyre sooooooooooo in love!!!!!!!!! so idk what imagery could represent that but its really important to me....

Comfort Things Tag Game

I’m a little behind with this one, actually. I was tagged by @verdantcactus to talk about comfort items, and then later on I think @sylveonikovilhelm tagged me too. I thought it sounded cute, so here we go :D Comfort Food: It used to be pasta, but now it’s chicken for the most part. Or anything I can cover in (British) gravy. Or, at minimum, soup. Comfort Clothes: an oversized hoodie and pyjama pants. Too big t-shirts. If it’s freezing, my fleecey blanket hoodie thing. Comfort Song: This is probably the hardest question of them all. I don’t think I really have one. I have a “soft but not depressing” music playlist so I guess I might say that. Or I fall back on video game music megamixes.

Comfort Movie: Hmn. Not sure. I don’t watch as many movies or even as much TV as I used to, but I enjoy the first two Pitch Perfect films (haven’t seen the 3rd), and 10 Things I Hate About You. OH. Basil The Great Mouse Detective. Comfort Book: Eh, that’s hard, I don’t read as much as I used to. Does going back and reading my own fanfic count? Comfort Activity: Messing around online in general and writing, I think. Sometimes I doodle or colour. Comfort Game/s: I have a stupid colour by numbers game thing on my ipad. I can lose myself in that for ages. Or, some farming sim or Pokemon game.

Yesss I deeply appreciate the reclist as a person who always gets overwhelmed looking for things with good characterization! thanks for sharing <3

Omg yes!! I'm so glad you like it!!!! I'm always reading - both fic and ~real books~, and Im ways looking for such a specific ... je ne sais quoi. Idk. Like there are certain fics that just really hit me with how amazing the voices are written.

For mcr predictions… I think we will get something new, but in my heart of hearts I don’t think they are gonna do a full album again. I could see them doing songs here and there and releasing them as they feel like it

yea im pretty much there as well....at this point ill just take what i can get!! if i get one new mcr song next year that will be enough for me

send me your 2023 mcr predictions

[thewordworrier]

I was tagged by both @smoogieboogie AND @robinruns to spell my username with songs and then tag as many people are there are letters. Oh boy.  (Let’s see if I can do these with the first song that comes to mind or if I’m gonna have to break open my iTunes.) T - ‘Tis The Damn Season - Taylor Swift. H - Helena - My Chemical Romance. E - Early Sunsets Over Monroeville - My Chemical Romance. W - Willow - Taylor Swift. O - Out Of The Words - Taylor Swift. R - Red (Taylor’s Version) - Taylor Swift. D - Desolation Row - My Chemical Romance. W - Wildest Dreams - Taylor Swift. O - Our Lady of Sorrows - My Chemical Romance. R - Razzmatazz - idkhow. R - Rats - Ghost. I - Ivy - Taylor Swift. E - Escape (The Pina Colada Song) - Rupert Holmes R - Revenge Is Sweeter (Than You Ever Were) - The Veronicas. I... Don’t know what this says about me. I had to dig through iTunes for some of them, and some came to mind immediately. Probably because I’ve been reading some fics recently, or I’ve been in a moody mood. Side note - I liked that last E song BEFORE Guardians of the Galaxy. We don’t talk about chris pratt in my house. I don’t know if I have enough people to tag, so here goes. No pressure though; you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to! And if I haven’t tagged you and you want to, go ahead, but tag me so I can see ‘cause I’m nosy. @dmltnlvr @spiderways-a-vampire @aprilpoison @winterschnikovilhelm @starnerd24 @verdantcactus

You mentioned a long ww2 destiel fic in an ask a couple of days ago… as a person who maybe is over invested in really long but good fics any chance I could get a link? hahaha

oh yea! its called ninety one whiskey

its just over 400k and there are two 10k codas

i broke my own rule of not reading war fics (bc i dont really like them and too much depression and angst) bc its so good and when the old timey forbidden gay love hits it really hits

[awsugar]
