YOINK from mr richard tozier. so sorry kate <3
Tumblr media
she  never  stood  a  chance.  absolutely  no  way  for  her  to  when she's  jumped  at.  an  ambush!  it's  the  only  way  richie  tozier's  able to  take  advantage  of  her  tiny  frame.  how  does  she  know  it's him?  he's  the  only  one  with  the  audacity  to  try.  try  and succeed,  more  like.  if  only  her  attention  wasn't  glued  to  that goddamn  walkman,  but  how  could  she  have  known?  all  she sees  is  a  blur  of  a  person  before  up  and  up  she  goes,  a  yell barely  managing  to  escape  her  lips  before  she  feels  them  begin to  move.  it's  awful,  being  flung  over  shoulders,  but  hands  are balled  into  fists,  grasping  at  the  thin  fabric  of  his  shirt,  ❝  put me  the  fuck  down,  tozier! ❞ and..  she  knows  he  won't,  not  when he's  finally  got  the  one  up  on  her  like  this.  she's sure he's smug-- how can he not be? she's red cheeked, wild eyed, frazzled, and so, very, very, angry. ire simmering, seething until it brings a fresh set of profanities to mind-- profanities she wastes no time in letting loose,  but there's only laughter in response. and something in that sound breaks through the anger, a twitch of a smile playing at her lips, if only for a moment. there's no denying his energy was infectious, but kate? well her pride and rage are much, much stronger, ❝ are you done yet, fucker? don't you have actual friends to piss off? ❞

Welsh Moony - a playlist
So from the first day I met them, @wdcmaxy has impressed upon me their Welsh Remus agenda. I decided to make a playlist to celebrate Welsh Moony in all his glory.
All songs are by Welsh artists (some of them in Welsh), and I tried to select songs that I thought fit Remus well where I could.
Full tracklist with lyrics underneath the cut!
1. Hello Sunshine // Super Furry Animals
I'm a minger You're a minger too So, come on, minger I want to ming with you In honesty It's been a while Since we had reason Left to smile Hello, Sunshine Come into my life
2. Peeled Apples // Manic Street Preachers
You know so little about me What if I turn into a werewolf or something?
3. Y Bluen Eira // The Joy Formidable
Be sy'n digwydd dywed be ddoth o'r cudd-le Pwy sy'n codi o'r geg Sy'n brathu nôl yn anheg Yn hollti y dymuniad
4. Don't Be Scared, I Love You // Bill Ryder-Jones
Those scars All those senseless scars My worst parts were when you're gone And the endless screaming dark ... Don't be scared, don't be scared I love you, I love you
5. Have A Nice Day // Stereophonics
It started straight off, "coming here is Hell" That's his first words, we asked what he meant He said, "Where you from?" we told him a lot We take a holiday, is this what you want? To have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day Have a nice day
6. Ysbeidiau Heulog // Super Furry Animals
Ond ar y cyfan roedd y camau yn weigion Y swigod coch yn llosgi fel gwreichion Um cam ymlaen am ddwy aneffeithlon Ysbeidiau heulog Heulog oedd ein oariad ni Heulog tan ddaeth glaw yn lliff
7. Romance Is Boring // Los Campesinos!
You're pouting in your sleep I'm waking still yawning We're proving to each other That romance is boring Still there are things I could do If I was half prepared to Prove to each other that romance is boring
8. Thank God I'm Not You // HIMALAYAS
I'm a coward, I'm a freak The scum of the Earth A liar and a cheat But I could be so much worse You could call me narcissistic You could say I'm of no worth You could call me the scorn of Satan But I could be so much worse I thank God that I'm not you
9. Fel i Fod // Adwaith
Sai'n siwr fel i fod Beth o ni moyn bod Yn y dyfodol Fy hun sidd ar top y list Pethau nai byth ffeindio Gobeithio bod pawb yn gwybod Sai'n siwr fel i fod Falle fi moyn mynd yn willt Falle fi moyn mynd i gysgu Âa-ŵŵ
10. Sexbomb // Tom Jones (ft. Mousse T)
Make me explode although you know The route to go to sex me slow And yes, I must react to claims of those Who say that you are not all that. Sexbomb Sexbomb you're a Sexbomb You can give it to me, when I need to come along Sexbomb sexbomb you're my sexbomb And baby you can turn me on
11. Suckers! // Super Furry Animals
Tell me you're a phoenix Rising far above All the Suckers in the mainstream Suckers in their slipstream Suckers in the underground Suckers on the benches Suckers in the trenches Suckers in the lost and found
12. Pure Pleasure // Drowners
It hurts like hell But I'd given myself into thinking You'd settle down Now I'm holding my eyes and blinking And I almost choked When you offered me a smoke on your cigarette Dry your eyes This is only the first death Well it took me by surprise When you held me to your chest and said I could love you in secret I could love you in secret I could love you in secret But no one can know
13. Are You Satisfied? // MARINA
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me 'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
14. Dim Bendith // Super Furry Animals
Arswyd mae dy ddyddiau mor faith Does wybod lle i sbio pan fod pawb mor ddauwynebog Cysgu di heno febyn annwyl dy fam Mae'n anodd treulio mil pan fo'r ddinas mor ddi hafant Paid dyfaru byth Na, dwi'm yn chwerthin ar dy ben di
15. Cave Song // Pretty Vicious
We are children of the streets Don't listen to a word about tomorrow 'Cause the world is at our feet It's mad, so try and just relax Smoke another fag and ease your sorrows 'Cause you lads are all I need Singing, drinking in the caves All night, yeah
16. Conversations With Myself // Drowners
Where you going and how long until you're back To forget what what I just lost track I go to places where we used to go The empty bedroom has been feeling cold You must be busy, I've not heard from you for a while Feeling lonely? No I'll be alright My one track mind isn't treating me Quite as kindly as I'd have liked But conversations with myself Conversations with myself When I find the words I wanna say The door is locked and I can't find a way out
17. Torra Fy Ngwallt Yn Hir // Super Furry Animals
Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? Reit i lawr at fy nhin Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? Reit i lawr at fy nhin Fydd neb yn eistedd wrth fy ymyl Pan dwi ar y bws Nei di dorri fy ngwallt yn hir? A paid a geund dim ffys!
18. 9669 // The Joy Formidable
We don't ride, we don't ride to sunset We just ride off to our last breath This time it's over Unless I under miss my Nothing miss my number
19. 9669 (Welsh Language Version) // The Joy Formidable - Bonus Track

(This may sound random but)
For the bowuigi comic what song do you think would fit the characters in the story?
Anon, when I tell you I finished answering this ask, providing links and lyrics for the canon representation of the characters before I scrolled back up and realised you were asking about A Table Turned. Just had to share that lol, my reading comprehension is great.
Obligatory continuing under the cut because this'll get long
Luigi
Blame it on the Neon by Leaving Thomas
Luigi in the story is just so fed up with his life in the MK, he's willing to do anything to escape it. It's alluded to in the story that Bowser didn't really have to do much to get Luigi to trust him, the cracks in the foundation were already showing, so to speak. Specifically the lyric below really sums up his choices in the story.
If I just made a big mistake, it’s better made in the red shade That don’t hurt my eyes I bet this bar has seen it all, the way these walls can make you fall Woah, these colours go straight to head So I’ll blame it on the neon if I lean on him right away The way the light is glowing, how he’s holdin’ me, I wanna stay Stay out of the daylight, the moonlight, it just feels right These drinks ain’t too strong If this is all wrong I’ll blame it on the neon
Honourable mention: Boys Will be Bugs by Cavetown
Mario
The Next Right Thing for Frozen 2 by Kristen Bell
Mario is just really broken for the majority of the story, so this feels right.
This grief has a gravity, it pulls me down But a tiny voice whispers in my mind "You are lost, hope is gone But you must go on And do the next right thing" Can there be a day beyond this night?
Honourable mention: Eight by Sleeping At Last
Peach
Are You Satisfied? by MARINA
When talking to friends irl about my representation of Peach, I like to classify her as morally dark-grey. Clearly doing the wrong things but for the right reasons, and there's a part of her that knows she's doing the wrong things but she's so wound up in being perfect that she can't stand to admit when she's made a mistake.
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
Honourable mention: Bird Song by Florence + The Machine
Bowser
Sick of the Silence by Mother Mother
I don't really know how to explain this one. Just vibes lol
I get so sick of the silence Because I'm terrified of what's inside of it Yeah, I get so sick of the silence That I have to That I have to just scream (I don't wanna hear what's deep inside of me)
Honourable mention: I'm Still Here for Treasure Planet by John Rzeznik

Neil Sadecki | 25 | He/him | Cis man
Pinterest board | Physical description
Family's background: As the oldest son of two renowned movie stars, Neil grew up around celebrities and film crews. He was always closer to this mom and her side of the family and tried to keep a neutral relationship with his father until his parents' divorce when Neil was 17. After his mother's death, Neil moved and he has been acting as his siblings' parent since.
Personality: Neil is as perfectionist as they come and some people would say that working with him can be an... interesting experience. He usually is a very private person, setting a clear line between who he is at work and at his personal life, results of a childhood lived through magazine's headlines. He is attentive and tries to keep on with the people he interacts daily with, even if not all of them notice his subtle ways.
Against what Neil believes about himself, he constantly seeks for approval and validation.
Lyrics: High achiever, don't you see? / Baby, nothing comes for free / They say I'm a control freak / Driven by a greed to succeed
Are You Satisfied? by Marina.

Songs that fit ASP and lyrics to prove it
There are seven songs so I'm gonna put a cut here. Also there's a little bit of story and discussion for one of them.
No Children by The Mountain Goats: And I hope when you think of me years down the line You can't find one good thing to say And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out You'd stay the hell out of my way I am drowning There is no sign of land You are coming down with me Hand in unlovable hand And I hope you die I hope we both die
God Must Hate Me by Catie Turner: Got ample mental illness, personality flaws While their only flaw seems to be is that they have none at all Do you ever see someone and think "Wow, God must hate me" I'll let 'em take accountability For everything that's wrong with me Can't hold myself responsible So I blame the metaphysical
Francis Forever by Mitski: On sunny days I go out walking I end up on a tree-lined street I look up at the gaps of sunlight I miss you more than anything [...] And autumn comes when you're not yet done With the summer passing by, but I don't think I could stand to be Where you don't see me [This is Finny's ghost to Gene :(] Final Duet (fan lyrics) by OR3O: When the nights get too lonely When the skies become gray It's okay, it's okay Just take everything day by day And you will see It's not as bad as it seems
Love Like You from Steven Universe: I always thought I might be bad Now I'm sure that it's true 'Cause I think you're so good And I'm nothing like you Look at you go I just adore you I wish that I knew What makes you think I'm so special
[Ok this is a stretch but] Satisfied by MARINA: High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me 'Cause it's my problem if I want to pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
Seventeen (Reprise) from Heathers: Listen up folks War is over Brand new sheriff's come to town We are done with acting evil We will lay our weapons down We're all damaged, we're all frightened We're all freaks but that's alright We'll endure it, we'll survive it [Finny], are you free tonight? [...] I can't promise no more Heathers High school may not ever end Still, I miss you, I'd be honored If you'd let me be your friend
Ok so for the last one the context is it's definitely after the first fall... I think when Gene visits Finny after the second fall or Finny's surgery from said fall turns out ok and he's on crutches again.
The characters are Gene, Finny, Brinker and Leper trying to be like normal again (but I know this is dumb cause Lep is LITERALLY CLINICALLY INSANE A PYSCHO). I'd like the situation to be the first option because there's a line that says, "Let's go be seventeen [...] Act like we're all still kids, cause this could be our final chance!" and the irony is that it IS their final chance cause you all know what happens in surgery then 😒
But I don't know how to have them all partying if Finny's literally still in the bed, like he's not moving all that much 💀💀💀💀 Anyway I need to learn how to draw Brink and Lep if I do this

@1mpulsee liked for a musical starter
"They say I'm a control freak driven by a GREED to SUCCEED." He snorts, rolling his eyes. Edward was well known. He had a reputation amongst heroes and villains alike and it was not a good one.
"Ah well. Nobody can stop me, anyway." He's a genius, he can do whatever he wants. If he'd wanted he could have the whole city under his thumb. The only reason he gets caught at all is because he chooses to play the game with Batman.
"Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life?"

Songs that I think fit characters, ships, oc’s etc (pt.2)
Tumblr media
Eva Pearce-Maneater by Nelly Furtado (I couldn’t find any gifs of her pls forgive me)
If any of you have seen the show Murdoch Mysteries, you know that she was a diabolical villain. She was able to pull one over on Detective Murdoch and use men to her advantage. Maneater is about a woman “who makes you work hard, makes you spend hard, make you went all her love”.
Tumblr media
Ocean O’Connell-Rosenburg-Are You Satisfied? By Marina And The Diamonds
“High achiever, don’t you see? Baby, nothing comes for free. They say I’m a control freak, driven by a greed to succeed”=literally a good chunk of her character. As a former gifted kid myself, I know what it’s like to feel that pressure to succeed. Ocean doesn’t realize until it was too late that she wasn’t satisfied with her life.
Tumblr media
Hana Kuroo x Kotaro Bokuto-O Sol e a lúa by Pequeno Cidadão
Hana’s another character of mine, a 2nd year on the Nekoma girls team (and Kuroo’s little sister👀). Hana sometimes has a hard time coming out of her shell, unlike Bokuto, who is her absolute opposite. Wonder how Kuroo would react if he realized one of his friends had a crush on his younger sister 😮
Tumblr media
Simon “Ghost” Riley-Chamber Of Reflection
Chamber of Reflection is about self-isolation, loneliness and reflection. I’m sure Simon himself has had moments where he questions why he even chose his life in the first place. A life where he can never have peace, always looking over his shoulder. Ghost seems to ice cold on the outside, but after all he’s been through, the man on the inside is considering if his job (or life even) is worth it.
Tumblr media
Dipper Pines-Freaking Out The Neighborhood
I’m not entirely sure why this fits but I think it does, maybe on vibes? I don’t know, this song absolutely “summer-time shenanigans with your twin as you solve the mystery of your small town”. Also the line, “sorry, mama, there are times I get carried away” is very Dipper-esc.
Tumblr media
Chuya Matsumoto(JJK oc)-GO! by Santigold
Chuya is a second year, with a technique that is based off of a hyena spirit called the Kishi. She’s pretty much “fight first, ask questions later” and is pretty goofy and often not the brightest. Yet, she’s not to be taken lightly. She’s a powerful sorcerer in training, who does not like to be underestimated.
Tumblr media
Sayuri Fujimoto (Haikyuu oc) x Yu Nishinoya-make Me Like You by Gwen Stefani
Despite Sayuri and Noya both being liberos, they’re both complete opposites. Sayuri’s also the type to be “romantic feelings? Never heard of her”. But then Noya comes waltzing into her life and she’s just “WAIT NO WHY DID YOU MAKE ME CATCH FEELINGS”

shimmering: when annie met charlie
Charlie saw Annie sparkling as she stood on the coffee table and glitter rained down on her, shrieking in disgust (but maybe soaking up the attention just a little bit). And he knew that was his girl. [x]
1. beach house by carly rae jepsen 2. are you satisfied? by marina and the diamonds 3. fit n full by samia 4. 001 by maude latour 5. mirrorball by taylor swift 6. blonde by raffaella 7. pink pony club by chappell roan 8. xs by rina sawayama 9. supercut by lorde 10. lipstick by raffaella
1. beach house by carly rae jepsen
Boys around the world I want to believe that when you chase a girl It's not just hunting season I can see the future, say it like you mean it
I've got a beach house in Malibu And I'm probably gonna hurt your feelings
This song is all about being disappointed by men over and over and over again! It always kind of reminded me of The History of Wrong Guys from Kinky Boots. And this playlist is all about Annie’s dating life before she got involved with Charlie, and I think a key thing is that Annie feels like none of these guys are up to her standards, they’re immature/flaky/etc and that’s part of why she falls for Charlie so hard.
2. are you satisfied? by marina and the diamonds
Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life?
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me
One thing about the Tremaines is that they’re very ambitious— they believe you have to fight tooth and nail for everything, and if you have to cheat and lie to do so, that’s an accomplishment tbh. Another reason Annie gets involved with Charlie is because he represents this kind of social-climbing victory for her, he’s old-money rich and older and accomplished, and to her that’s just as important as who someone is as a person.
3. fit n full by samia 
Phasing out of this old fairy tale Apple cider, vinegar and kale I'm fit and full as ever
If you want, I can take it off And show you what my mama gave me
This song represents Annie trying to be the kind of girl she thinks Charlie will like. Someone who’s happy all the time and eats healthy and also an object of desire. This song is very satirical from the “cool girl” or “it girl” pov that is really just based on impossible standards for women but i think annie would really try to embody this.
4. 001 by maude latour
I like to shine bright like a fucking star
I think this song is about performing in a literal sense but I think for Annie it’s about needing to be in the spotlight, She tries to act like the only attention she needs is from one person, but in reality, she wants an audience. So this song and the “shine bright like a fucking star” lyric reminded me of the moment I pulled out from that task I wrote about Annie meeting charlie.
5. mirrorball by taylor swift
I'm still on that tightrope I'm still trying everything to get you laughing at me I'm still a believer but I don't know why I've never been a natural All I do is try, try, try I'm still on that trapeze I'm still trying everything To keep you looking at me
Another song about being in the spotlight, but this song gets even more specifically about how hard you have to try to seem effortless. And it’s also more specifically about doing it for a person, and this is maybe when Annie starts reaching for Charlie’s attention more specifically. She’s an expert at performing, and now she’s doing it for one person, because she doesn’t really know how not to.
6. blonde by raffaella
You would be a lot happier if I were blonde Everybody's thinking it and everybody's saying it too Just give me my money, my time, my new salon Two cents and confidence, I'll get it ready for you
So Annie isn’t blonde, but she is obsessed with her appearance, and she’s changed many things about it to try and meet beauty standards. And specifically to be the kind of person who looks good with the guy she likes, to impress the people in his life and be worthy of him. Obviously this is very toxic thinking but it’s the mindset Annie grew up with so here we are.
7. pink pony club by chappell roan
God, what have you done You're a pink pony girl And you dance at the club Oh mama, I'm just having fun On the stage in my heels It's where I belong down at the Pink Pony club
Okay so from a story perspective this song is actually not very relevant lol but I felt like it fit a similar vibe to 001 and mirrorball, enjoying having an audience and being onstage and being sparkly etc. None of the stuff about your mom disapproving really fits the story, but also I do think that Annie probably didn’t get to go out the way she enjoyed doing as much once she started dating Charlie because she wanted to seem more “classy” so this is maybe like a sort of alternate universe. Also this song slaps so.
8. xs by rina sawayama
Call me crazy, call me selfish Say I'm neither, would you believe her?
Gimme just a little bit (more), little bit of (excess) Oh, me, oh, my I don't wanna hear "No, no" Only want a "Yes, yes"
Another song that’s meant to be satirical of the exact thing Annie’s doing, another thing about the Tremaines is they love MONEY and will chase it in whatever way they can. This is something about Charlie Annie is really drawn to and I think the world he comes from would be a little bit intoxicating to her.
9. supercut by lorde
'Cause in my head In my head, I do everything right When you call, I'll forgive and not fight All the moments I play in the dark Wild and fluorescent Come home to my heart
This song is all about reminiscing back on your relationship and only wanting to remember the good parts. But I actually DONT think it’s post breakup Annie, I think it’s pre-wedding Annie, when she’s not feeling so sure about this but she tries to remind herself that they ARE good together and pretend she did everything right and forget the bad stuff. This worked out super well for her btw.
10. lipstick by raffaella
Two drink minimum at the Bitter End Eyes wide shut, leave me when you're getting dressed How much money can I spend 'til I don't miss you? Wish you didn't let me kiss you again (Didn't let me kiss you again)
Yes another Raffaella song sorry. This is about the DIVORCE. It’s the last song because it’s Annie really looking back on this relationship and trying not to be sad about it. Because sad feels powerless to her and angry feels powerful, but all she can really feel is the former. She hates that she’s still drawn to him even though he hurt her, and she just wants to forget him. So this is also kind of a meta retrospective song and I thought it would be a good closer.

Tim is an “Are you satisfied”
perhaps a hot take but the lyrics to tht song always make me think way more of N52 Tim specifically rather than pre reboot Tim, especially the second verse
Tumblr media
like hear me out but
“High achiever don’t you see” / “Tim pushed himself because he wanted to be the best.”
Tumblr media
(Teen Titans Vol. 4 #0)
“Baby, nothing comes for free” / “But the truth is, once you commit… you are never safe again. That night— Tim went all in.”
Tumblr media
(Teen Titans Vol. 4 #0)
“They say I’m a control freak” / “There’s no vote. It’s a done deal.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Teen Titans Vol. 5 Annual #1)
“Driven by a greed to succeed” / “I never accept that something’s impossible. I always think I can find a way.”
Tumblr media
(Teen Titans Vol. 5 #13)
“Nobody can stop me” / “So long as we’re still alive, the only thing we can be sure of— Is that this ends with me kicking your ass.”
Tumblr media
(Teen Titans Vol. 4 Annual #3)
And also just in general, the questions posed by the chorus just fit so well with N52 Tim:
“Are you satisfied with an average life?” His whole motivation for getting involved in hero work is that he wants more, to prove himself worthy of his parents love. That he isn’t satisfied with an average life.
“Do I need to lie to make my way in life?” Because he took on being a hero, he has an alias (Red Robin) and is constantly lying and hiding things obviously- but beyond that the thing that’s more N52 Tim specific? He becomes ‘Tim Drake’, when Drake isn’t his original last name (we never find out what it was)- it’s a witness protection name he takes on because of his actions. He’s literally living with a fake name, lying to make his way in that version of his life!
