12:00:00 AM, Washington D.C. 🌆🌙🪫
Another late night that you've cooped yourself inside of your office under the guise of "productivity". It's good to keep busy, you tell yourself as you start to sort out the seemingly never-ending pile of papers stacked on your desk. The night grows longer. As your work rate slows, your habitually neglected desire grows...so now what?
POOR IS THE MAN WHOSE PLEASURES DEPEND ON THE PERMISSION OF ANOTHER
An early 90s, Irwin R. Schyster inspired playlist that tackles the real question of "working hard or am I hard while working?".
Jazz Instrumentals, RnB/NewJackSwing vibes entice while office sounds await to snap you back into reality.
Playlist is public. Best experienced through headphones 🎧. If you don't use Spotify, here are links to the songs (sorry no sound effects here):
Late Night Hour- Bernd Roger
Principles of Desire- Russ Freeman and The Rippingtons
If - D&D 12" Mix- Janet Jackson
Justify My Love - Orbit Edit- Madonna
Wey U - Chanté Moore
Same Place Same Time - Kiss The Sky

listening to rakim and the pharcyde rn and just thinking it's actually kinda weird that more ppl haven't pointed out how much miles' taste in music affects his life and viewpoint in general
and how being raised by his uncle who's into more old school stuff on earth-42 would affect him and his development
i'm imagining 42 actually clowning 1610 for listening to post malone while placing a labcabincalifornia vinyl on his record player while they chill in his room one day lol
42's tastes would probably be more varied and just... like more developed in general bc he has a man who was more than likely a Part Of The Culture helping to raise him. aaron was out on the streets of brooklyn as a kid most likely swapping diy mixtapes and buying local rap cd's with his allowance/summer job money (assuming he was born like around 1978-1980, then he was most likely on the streets in the mid 90's during the Golden Age of Hip Hop).
not to mention that for aaron to even Do What He Does as the prowler, he is still out on the streets til this day, shooting the shit with fellow neighbors and shaking hands with black market merchants. he's dapping up store owners and trying to get on local gang leaders' good sides for intel. he's making connections! he is most def still swapping music recommendations with ppl in the hood and ordering vinyls online if he can't get his hands on them in physical brick-and-mortar stores
and music seems to be a super important thing to a man like aaron. that would definitely influence miles. interesting that i haven't seen more posts mentioning that actually!

I was tagged by @entwinedloop (thank you! 😘😘😘) to: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern! 🕵️🕵️🕵️
Let's go!
1. Shattering your silence; passing round the chalice
Gertie’s truly is a shithole.
2. upon your ignorance (and the gray despair) of your ugly life
Even in the dream, his head aches.
3. around here we say birds not bitches
She – Beth – draws damp air in through her nostrils, exhales out of her purse-poised mouth.
4. filing her nails while she's dragging the lake
He’s about to knock.
4a. chapter 5 / how this earned its updated date
Sometimes (not how’d strike as a strict ‘often’ though there has been firm occasion), Elizabeth enjoys punishment.
5. do you like drugs (tonight)
“So,” Annie says, shimmying her upper body the oblique way that makes those lengthening waves surge at her shoulders. “Given any more thought to the motorbike?”
6. found my thrill
Once Jimmy closes upon a nugget – be it sizeable cobble; mere fragment; heck, even a solitary gravillon – it’s lifted.
7. (a) time to kill
It happens amid a blur of almost pure, concentrated instinct.
8. waiting for someone who needs me
It’s a Tuesday afternoon.
9. It’s a dirty dirty game but (you should’ve called before you came)
It’s not like Beth hadn’t known.
10. a time to every purpose (under heaven)
It starts as merely a stray pleasing notion.
Patterns! 👀 Um well I appear to have stopped starting every first line with 'it' dfghji hh otherwise... Well fairly short sentences & generally a sense of being thrown straight into the action or at least set up? Vaguely tight pov, as opposed to like omniscient narrator. And def too much b/rio lol
Tagging: @fairhairedkings @bourbon-ontherocks @misshazelevers20 @kenrune @nottonyharrison @peachraindrops @unicornscully @veronicamarz @lunafeather & YOU if u wanna 🏷️🏷️🏷️🏷️🏷️

hello fellow jealous Will enthusiast: so imagine that Will has an “I’m gay too” moment with Mike’s bf just so that the bf feels more threatened OR mikes bf clocks Will as gay before Will even SAYS anything and figures out how Will feels pretty quickly and it’s a whole mess 👀👀👀
hello fellow jealous will enthusiast i see your vision and raise you: mike's bf finds out will is gay bc mike simply cannot shut up abt will at any given moment

i keep thinking about how in 1610 miles was p much haunted and followed by the number 42 (thanks to that one tumblr post, yknow the one) after his spider bite.
the bus seating capacity, the numbers that fell off into the streets after miles crashed into them, all those tiny lil details that followed him throughout his journey to becoming Spiderman
and i also wonder if miles42 was also haunted by numbers like 1610. maybe his neighbor down the block's address is 1610. maybe the dorm room capacity at visions is 161. maybe he always gets up at 6:10 am to get ready for the day....
anyways
*breaks down crying*
