ok so i was tagged by the lovely @lexiklecksi for the 11/11/11 tag, the rules are: answer the 11 questions she asked me, make up my own 11 questions and then tag 11 ppl to answer those (so if you want you can skip to the questions at the bottom lmao). however as a fair warning: this got Way too long probably bc im rambly today. i tried to limit the stream of consciousness but….

1. current musical obsession: Frank Ocean and related sort of neo-r&b stuff - while writing this im also discovering Childish Gambino’s “Awaken, My Love!” (and also the song Golden Brown, but not bc im listening to it but bc im learning it on both guitar and piano)

2. 3 things i always take with me:

- wallet (or at least my id)

- phone (&earphones)

- cigarettes&lighter

3. what (or who) i miss most in lockdown: i dont rly remember? im so used to the situation by now that i kind of forget to miss what i did when things were “normal”... but i guess going to bars w/ friends, and just being able to go shopping when i need smth

4. pick: either only read 1 book or only read books picked by someone else: i wouldn’t be able to only read one book for the rest of my life! so definitely the second option (esp if i can pick the person who picks the books)

5. why i found your blog/followed you and if i intend to stay: uhh you followed me and when i checked your blog i liked the vibe i guess? also you were v nice in the tags of my music stuff! also ya i like it here, so im staying for a while

6. when and why did i last cry: i genuinely dont know for sure.. the last time i specifically remember crying was my granddad’s funeral, which is three yrs ago this month, but i do know ive cried once or twice since then, i just dont remember for sure when and why.

wait i do remember, i think the last time was when i saw Richard Says Goodbye (live music and movies or books are basically the only reason i rly cry, im not an emotional crier, dont know why).

7. who holds the key to my heart: my partner of five (and a bit) years, whom i love Very Much! (although ofc my heart is not locked, i have so much love to give, just romantically i am very much taken)

8, pick one: star wars/star trek, dobby/gollum, white/black magic, flying/teleportation, time travel: past/future?

- Star Wars

- Gollum (even though i have read hp but still havent read lotr, ive read the hobbit like 4 times tho)

- i think the hard dichotomy btwn white/black magic or like light/dark and good/bad in most fiction is often v flawed bc thats not how the world works, everything is grey areas (e.g. the Jedi are not better than the Sith, both have deeply flawed philosophies). the Force (or any magic for that matter) is not inherently good or evil, it just is. nature isnt abt good or evil, isnt abt opposites but abt balance.

and especially if you work with the occult and magical, i think thats all abt walking the edge between light and dark, life and death, night and day, good and bad etc…

so to answer the question: grey magic lmao, its all abt balance

- teleportation i think, bc while flying is very cool, i think teleportation has more practical uses (although also has danger involved, such as what happens if you teleport into a space that is already occupied by a person or an object? but for the sake of argument, prolly teleportation)

- do not even get me started on time travel.. the implications of time travel to the past are…… complicated to say the least (it only works if you believe in hard determinism, which i wholly do not). so in a practical sense, def to the future (although that is also Problematic within the constraints of our four-dimensional universe/experience).

in a philosophical sense though, ignoring all the paradoxes and laws of time and space, id still pick the future (or maybe no time travel at all), bc i think the past is the past for a reason. we remember it, we learn from it, but ultimately we must leave it behind.

my philosophical problem with traveling to the future is more that you cant just. skip life. so if you travel to the future, it has to be way beyond your own life and direct influence, or youll interfere with yourself and your own future, and thats scientifically, psychologically /and/ philosophically a v bad idea all round, i think.

9. which thoughts keep me awake at night: almost never specific thoughts, but quite often anxiety abt the near future. but theres no like, lingering issues that keep me awake.

10. what id do with you if we were locked up together for 24hrs: i think i’d really like to write with you! make poetry, song lyrics, make art! bc we could rly learn from each other i think and also we could just rly pick each others brain abt mundane, important and transcendental stuff ya know?

11. ask anything: do you have concrete, long term plans for the future, maybe even backup plans? a clear vision of how the rest of your life is going to go? or are you more the type to do what makes you happy now and figure it out as you go along?

my own questions (large variation in vibes and weight, i know):

describe your favourite colour using other senses (like what sound, smell, feeling or w/e do you associate with it)

what’s the best thing that happened to you in the last week, last month and last year?

what’s the one thing/what are the things that help(s) you get up in the moring and keep putting one foot in front of the other?

are you a leftie? (warning: there is a correct answer)

do you play/have you ever played a musical instrument? (and for the sake of completeness, yes i am counting singing as well)

do you have one thing (e.g. a song, movie, book or smth else) that never fails to bring you joy?

do you have one (or more) person(s) you feel you could still hit up after ten yrs of radio silence and you’d still vibe?

what’s your favourite song lyric/line from a poem/quote? and why?

who was your first celebrity crush? (if you’ve ever had one obvsly)

what’s smth you’re looking forward to? could be specific, could be a general thing like a driver’s licence or your own apartment or w/e

this one is specifically to feed my curiosity, indulge me: why did you follow me?

congrats, you’ve managed to reach the end! again, very sorry for the rambles, thanks for sticking around. im tagging @alt-heidi, @terdiscussie, @a-soul-to-cling-to, @ontvreemd, @sarahhnghae and i guess whoever fuckin feels like it? i literally can’t think of 11 ppl on this hell site, so if i forgot you its not personal. if we’re mutuals you’re especially tagged.

#this was v fun actually #i was tagged to do this like 3 weeks ago but ya know #adhd and stuff #i actually have another one in my backlog as well #i think ill look into that as well now

I saw your shipping and handling for Vergil. So what about your other muses? It's okay if I need to send this ask multiple times btw. I just got curious.

// I can do a read more! That way it isn’t more posts to search for but XD thank you

This man oozes confidence. So if you can match that and meet him step for step he’ll definitely keep his eye on you.

My V also thoroughly enjoys LOTR and Harry Potter, so could talk to him for days about either of them. If you speak Elvish and can be really elegant, you might steal his breath away

Speaking of elegant…forgot to mention this for Vergil but like, dude. Both Vergil and V will ballroom dance you into next week! V loves dancing with Kyrie just to have some fun. He’ll also dance in the rain!

Unlike Vergil, he doesn’t mind loud talkers. I mean, he has Griffon, but I established that it’s because the silence can get to him sometimes. Griffon fills that void. Fast talkers can throw him for a loop sometimes but just…give him an extra minute to process what you’ve said and don’t be upset if he didn’t catch something and asks you to repeat.

Unless he’s in the middle of reading something really good, as long as you capture his attention first he’ll focus completely on you. Unless he’s fighting. Then he’s solely focused on the fight and hyper-focuses on it, won’t even let you fret on him until after everything’s dead. After the fight? Fret all you like, he will actually enjoy it. He doesn’t like being coddled, but he likes being taken care of.

V also likes to just…sit in your presence and observe you or read and let the moment be for hours. If you’re okay with that and don’t feel the need to fill a void that isn’t there, then kudos!

Kyrie

I love her, okay? Just…adore this precious cinnamon roll

She’s been through so much and still stuck with Nero at the end of everything.

Her heart is so pure and so strong. I stan her.

Don’t trifle with her, though, everyone agrees on that

When Nero says ‘Kyrie always makes too much’ I mean this girl cooks like she’s cooking for an army because I headcanon the Sparda men have black holes for stomachs and if there can be leftovers for Nero to take on the road it makes her happy.

Want to woo her? Just…she’ll know you like her cooking when you clear your plate and she’ll also know if you eat it just to be polite.

This girl is classic romance, candlelight dinners, slow dancing, soft touches, loving kisses, movies and cuddles on the couch, though she loves Nero’s quirky shyness and they can be shy sweet beans together ok!

Yvette

Yvette is a silly bean!

Loves to laugh and will not be afraid to have one of those super loud obnoxious belly laughs. Genuinely enjoys Dante’s jokes.

Don’t get in her way when she starts cleaning man, don’t do it

She likes simple things, actually. A movie out, a ‘Netflix and chill’, flowers just because, eating at Freddi’s, a stargazing date or a cloud watching date

She’s been hurt before, however, because she’s been told she’s too much. Too clingy, too weird, too this, too that. She hugs a lot, she does drive-by kisses when you’re established, PDA/hand-holding, and she will tell you “I love you” every chance she gets and to her, it never loses the meaning. She’s been told not to because it ‘loses it’s meaning over time’ and she just…doesn’t believe that.

Also not a virgin, but uh…acts like it because she just feels so strongly and every other time she’s given herself to someone they’ve hurt her one way or another, so she just…gets scared

RB!Dante

Still a fairly new muse for me, but hey, we’re trying to get a feel for each other.

A lot more feral than my Vergil is, the more nasty kind of cat that would rather bite and scratch first and most would say put him down.

But don’t. Keep trying. He’s been scorned way too many times and has Major Trust Issues. Your persistence will annoy him, but as long as you’re genuine he can see it in your eyes.

If you can meet his eyes you’ll gain respect points, though if you’re shy he’ll think it’s cute too.

Call him on his bullshit, he’ll be stunned enough you can talk to him without him snapping. Yet, don’t be rude and nasty when you do. He won’t respond well. Use it to catch his attention.

Banter with him and laugh at his dumb jokes. Again tho, be sincere. He’ll know and he’ll appreciate it.

After doing a bunch of character aesthetics, I’ve learned he’s also truly a Soft Boi™ and once you survive that growling surface, you’ll see it glowing through in the form of picking wildflowers to maybe give to you, scuffing his feet shyly and rubbing his nose, maybe bumping shoulders and you know if he’s averting his eyes he’s into you and being cute.

^ Do. Not. Tease. Him. ^ He will clam up and shut off to you all over again. It hurts and he shows his hurt violently and with gnashed teeth. (Addendum - once you’re well established teasing is fine he’ll know you enough to know it’s in good fun)

Isn’t opposed to makeup, interestingly enough. If you’re in the store together and you pick up a stick of lipstick and say “I think this would look good on you” he’d go “yeah? let’s try it” and he’ll even let you put it on, same with eyeliner, though he finds colored liners more entertaining he’ll def be down for a classic bold winged look in black.

^He’d be the boyfriend in those “boyfriend does my makeup” challenge videos and is Good At It where when he’s done he’ll straight up tell you he doesn’t want you to post it because you look smokin’ and he’s a greedy/jealous boi
