The brainrot took over and so here's a vat7k hadestown au!! Don't know if I'll develop it fully but I liked designing it at least!

More info under the cut:

- Varian, the Coronan royal alchemist, tasks himself with deciphering an incantation capable of bringing the world back into tune. Times are tough, and the royal family + Quirin are doing their best to cope with the meagre crop yields and desolate weather (Corona not really being the sunshine kingdom - hasn't been for a while). He wants to help and do good and I think he'd be a good Orpheus.

- Hugo, having moved about from place to place, still has his interest in alchemy and does what he can to get by. He plans on temporarily staying in Corona before looting, but he encounters a certain like-minded scientist at the Snuggly Duckling. I think him being selfish works especially well in Eurydice's role, having a more pessimistic view of the world. It also works with how he gets drawn to Donella's offer of working for her later on, leading him to his death.

- Ulla as Persephone! I was initially stuck on whether to have Rapunzel (and either Eugene/Cass) as her (and Hades) but I was drawn to the connection that Hugo has to Donella and the Donella/Ulla relationship in vat7k just works too well. In this case, Ulla won't be Varian's mother. She's still gonna be somewhat of an inspiration to him though, being the previous Coronan royal alchemist and for her intelligence. For half the year, she'll return to Corona with food, drinks, and alchemical compounds/inventions, bringing Spring and Summer to the world, if only for a bit.

- Donella would be such an interesting Hades, losing sight of her love for Ulla, heart filled with fear and hurt, leading to bitterness and cruelty. Ingvarr being Hadestown and how by being the esteemed Ingvarrian engineer, she'd be in charge of major technological advances across the kingdoms and so would wield a significant amount of power (like how Hades is literally the ruler of the underworld). Ingvarr essentially being a near death sentence for its workers while also displaying its technological prowess, all still shrouded in mystery and corruption - a place so otherworldly compared to the rest of the kingdoms.

I didn't want to modify the outfits too much nor the personalities,, if anything I imagine the general plot beats being the same as the original musical/story but with slight differences that'd you get inherently as a result of these characters. I wouldn't want it to be the case where it's just the show but the names are changed. I'd want this to still make reasonable sense in this AU, with the actions being understandable for this particular cast of characters.

For Hermes, I ended up picking Xavier, as he's most knowledgeable of old legends and stories, which would work in reference to the Hades and Persephone myth (and so Donella and Ulla)! He'd act as a mentor figure for V, someone who can guide him in uncovering the forgotten incantation. Quirin would still be the good supportive dad he is (even if he doesn't fully understand his son's project).

Last but not least, the fates!! often lurking in the background, I'm still a bit stuck on who it could be? I'm tempted to have it be Raps, Cass, and Nuru as they've had celestial connections at some point (and ya know how stars can represent fate), but I also love the freckled siblings dynamic so much. Also Team Radical... Maybe Raps and Cass can be their normal selves but their Sundrop/Moonstone counterparts are the manifested physical forms of the fates? They wouldn't be visible to the characters though, just voices in the wind.

Anyways yeah!! Those are my thoughts. Do let me know if you've got any cool ideas or questions. I'm really combining my interests at full force and there's nothing anyone, not even myself, can do about it quite frankly. 😮‍💨

Currently obsessed with the idea that the boys go to Time for love advice, since "he's married so he knows this stuff right?"

I mean they couldn't recognize a wedding ring??? And neither did he???

And time was saying this in his youth I mean cmon

Twilight: So ancestor. What would you do if like. Malon left to another world and never came back

Time: ... bro Malon called me fairy boy and then we were married like what

Hyrule: So uhh old man. How does one. Meet a girl.

Time: By speaking to her I guess? Or not, Malon did the talking for me

Hyrule: riiiiight...

Wild *no tact*: Hey so like... what if your redheaded wife who's name started with M died.

Time: what?!?!

Wild, undeterred: but like before she proposed.

Time: ...

Wild: and you don't remember if you would have said yes. What's your advice for dealing with that?

Time: ... vent to a fairy?

Warriors: hey old man

Time: no no no not this one asking me please

Warriors: how do I get women to stop coming after me. So I can ya know. Choose without war trying to force me into relationships

Time: I can safely say I've never had that problem captain

Wars: of course not *smirks*

Wars: ok but seriously how do I make them go away

Time: ... wear a wedding ring so they think you're taken, I've got a shiny extra

Time: no no why- they won't stop, I don't know how to do love!

Time: ok well at least I have legend. That kid would never ask for advice, I'll sit by him.

Legend: so old man.

Time, looking forward to a normal conversation: yeah?

Legend: hypothetically, what would you do if you found out Malon didn't exist.

Legend: And her whole world didn't, but it did, and now it doesn't

Time: ...Excuse me for a minute.

Time, writing a letter as fast as he can: MALON HOW DO I GIVE LOVE ADVICE THEY THINK IM WISE

Malon: lol

Happy Valentine's Day guys, have a headcanon :P

The boys go to Time for love advice and Time spouts whatever wise-sounding bs he can, before shoving them all on Malon for therapy when they visit the ranch

Art and comic by Jojo @linkeduniverse! :D

#I'm just??? we have like three different times they went to him with love problems? guys he grew up in a forest raised by a tree #he proposed with a cosplay ring #Malon laughs her head off when he says they're going to him for advice #'babe I had to force you into understanding marriage'#'give me the boys I'll talk to them'#to the boys: 'listen Links don't stop going to him for love advice. ask about the most wierd traumatic shit you've been through'#'cook record his reactions this'll be hilarious'#'he's seemed wise...' 'he don't know shit kids he's quoting me'#Lu time #lu #linked universe #linkeduniverse #little did he know legend was the worst of them all #wars wears the glittery engagement ring he recommended with pride 'sorry I'm taken ladies in case you missed the sparkle'#technically Valentine's Day was 43 minutes ago but shhhh it's ok time doesn't know what love is either #I do not have several of the games or complete information #if I said something incorrect (or offensive ever) let me know :)#love you guys #:)

the darkest of nights, in truth, still dazzles.

a halsin fanmix [listen]

#BG3 Musing #BG3 Fanmix #Halsin BG3 #Halsin #Halsin Posting #my fanmix #i give up this is about as done as it will ever be - i've been talking about this enough i need to get it away from me #i could have made at least one or two other playlists with the number of songs i cut from this #there were some things that hurt me to cut but i figured others had them in their playlists so they're out there #(the impossible dream you will always be famous i am so sorry :(()#i had three goals with this 1. make it more of a timeline in that it follows a narrative order (which hopefully is easy enough to follow)#(it makes sense to me about as much as it is ever going to lol)#2. try to avoid using songs that other individuals have used in their playlists (with a handful of exceptions - i highly encourage you also #take a listen to the others around! lots of good stuff and i figured if you were missing it from this one you can find another with it)#(and if i did use one the context might be different #'closer here is being used in a different way than i usually see it - it's putting more emphasis on the 'you can have my isolation' bit use #in context of the matron and patron for example)#and 3. focus as much as possible on non-romance path elements of halsin's character - i.e. again that's a topic that is highly explored #in other fanmixes to great success - this one is about the childhood he references and the adventures and the capture in the underdark #and the shadow curse and the burying of people he loved and the uptaking of the archdruid position and the healing he did #and possibly did not do #and the radicalization he comes into when his goals are met and he's faced with injustices #and the struggle he has of redefining himself and figuring out who he is after all of it #hopefully the 'eras' are clearly defined but hey it's all gravy from here #honestly if there is one song to listen to that encapsulates halsin for me it's tapestry - highly recommend that #anyway i am blabbing - let the lyrics and such talk for themselves jemi please #but if fanmixes aren't your speed have a kinda nice edit i guess #edit: now with bonus song i just had to add after shamefully forgetting it

My dear followers and mutuals!

As I drove back home after the holidays yesterday, I was thinking about New Year's Resolutions and the "fun resolutions" post that's been going around for a while, and I decided:

I don't listen to enough music.

So I'm going to listen to (at least) one full album a week for the rest of the year.

Thus, I have a favour to ask:

If you would like to, please recommend me an album (or two) that you love!

I will add it to my list and listen to it when the time comes!

I am very open to different genres and eras, so anything goes!

#i am compiling a list and am happy to share it when the recommendations stop #and i'll tag stuff about this #2024 album challenge #i'm not sure whether I'll do album-by-album reactions on here or if that will feel too much like homework #and discourage me from actually listening to them in the first place #but I'll definitely put the list of recommendations here and give occasional updates of ones that I really like #op

tagging the usual music favs: @jiminsproof @thvinyl @jimin-gaon @visionsofgideontheninth @spicyclematis @kimchokejin @jihopesjoint @monismochi plus @kimtaegis for the amy macdonald of it all 💜 and also you, dear reader. MWAH

#heads up! here comes the director's commentary:#16 Carriages - now listen. i love texas hold 'em as much as the next daddy lessons supremacist #but holy shit. it doesn't hold so much as a candle to this track.#just unbelievably stunning. i'm begging you to give it another chance if you skipped over it the first time #Don't Forget Me - me and kayla and apryl all having ms rogers in this month's list... i think we might be better than everyone else actuall #End Of Beginning - good GOD we couldn't gatekeep djo any longer but it's worth it if only for all the bear tiktok edits.#and thus i have fallen for this track all over again. yes CHEF #Showtime - now if you've known me long enough you'll know i'm an absolute sucker for british indie rock bands #especially if their frontman looks like they might not make it through another winter #so you can imagine catfish has had an inexplicable hold on me. anyway their comeback single is actually pretty good #This Is The Life - fantastic tune. 2007 if you can believe it?#what a time to be alive and at the school disco and you're singing the songs and thinking this is the life and so on and so forth #Loving You Will Be The Death Of Me - tom odell can do no wrong in my eyes (ears?) anyway. lovely lovely new album #Never Need Me - been loving rachel for a while now and this single is brilliant. highly recommended.#plus the video features florence pugh and if that doesn't sweeten the deal then christ i don't know what will #Baby Now That I've Found You - i didn't even realise this was a cover of the foundations until hearing it again recently #because alison krauss just has an incredible way of making them her own and thus it's been on repeat.#Deeper Well - okay so now i'm seeing the country thread through this month's picks.#this is another lovely new one. hearing it on the radio and the fact that they have to censor “i used to wake and bake” is hilarious to me #shoutout kayla again because great minds..#Stay For Something - CMAT is phenomenal and if you haven't listened to her yet i can't recommend her entire discography enough.#she had her arsecrack out at the brits last night and well. i would die for her #(speaking of the brits. raye... i literally cried for her. go find the recording of her live at the royal albert hall.#-watch it twice and then come back and thank me)#artists-wise - most of these guys are consistently up there.#katie melua is a new feature this time because all my amy macdonald-ing put me back onto nine million bicycles.#used to get that one mixed up with 99 luftballoons but they're really very different. i'm a fool #so tl;dr: fantastic tunes. do listen #tag #receiptify

do you have any good recs for female/female fronted underrated bands?? thanks in advance!

yeah for sure but i'll need more guidelines what genre do you want and how would you define underrated bc i can give you obscure bands that aren't even on spotify or have less than 1000 montly listeners or bands that do well but just don't make it to the charts or bands that only play shows in their own local areas or bands that are going on their first ever tours. and also do you want recommendations of bands that are still active. and when you say female are you trans inclusive bc i can also give you a whole bunch of bands fronted by trans women.

#truth be told i do not listen to music made by men #so you couldn't have asked me a broader question #women make up like 80 percent of the artists i listen to #and i like so many genres too #so you gotta give me the most specific guidelines when you ask fo rmusic recommendations #theres only one male fronted band i currently like and thats bob vylan #i appreciate being asked for recommendations but also maybe if you call bands with women in them female fronted like its a genre i'm not su #if i'm the right person to ask #i forget theres a gender binary most days man i live in my head

Reject Spotify, embrace your weird, local community radio station.

#DEAD SERIOUS #take a look and see if there's a local station you're interested in #Variety community stations are amazing! Look for programs you might like and try to listen!#I'd give recommendations but they're too local #Begging you to form a parasocial relationship with your local radio hosts though #Make them celebrities #They do so much I love them #The best time to listen is probably between 7 and 10 PM for ultimate music IMO but that's night to night #and station by station #this goes double if you're a WTNV fan btw #like you guys there's a reason they chose community radio #look at all the strange things happening right around you.#goat talk

i love it when an algorithm shows me something i don't like and i get to immediately tell it to never show me that shit again. meatballs menu "i'm not interested" my beloved

#this is for once not sarcasm btw. it gives me the same joy as blocking people. like the power of curating my experience. divine #every time i say out loud 'never show me that shit again' btw #spotify inexplicably tried to recommend me a real estate podcast #i don't listen to ANY podcasts except for like one years ago when i was like 'do i like this form of media'#the answer is no. i hate it. sorry. im a podcast hater #anyway. no idea where they got the idea i might want anything related to real estate???#buddy im listening to zoomer music as a 30 year old #do u really think i can afford to get into real estate

#i am so fucking!!!#the motifs and themes are chefs kiss #the way it teases out the characters and themes and plot of the book so evocatively while doing its own thing and keeping it fresh #the voice of it all!!!#it's all ive listened to or thought about for several weeks and no one i know has listened (despite many hints)#like ugh i listened to it forever ago and thought it was fine but kinda meh and cheesy #past me you were WRONG ok you straight up didnt get it #also if this in any way makes u wanna listen do but make sure you go in open minded and ready to accept what they are ready to give u #which is love and friendship and lore and angst and sense of self #and also i have to recommend listening to my curated extended playlist that slots back in 3 of the cut songs #(5 cut songs were released as bonus tracks and theyre all fun but one is more of a bit and one is duplicative of another song in the show)#(as in literally shares some dialogue)#so while try does tread some of the same emotional ground of lost it gets to stay while in the same boat sadly does not #ily tho itsb #anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk #pjo #tlt musical #post #eta: oh and don't even get me STARTED about the Implications of the roles that are double/triple/etc cast #GABE IS LUKE IS ARES #CLARISSE IS MRS DODDS IS KATIE GARDNER #SALLY IS THE ORACLE IS SILENA IS CHARON #(i know the katie and silena thing doesnt feel like much but oh!! in my heart it is so much)#GROVER IS MR D DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE GALAXY BRAIN MEME IN MY HEART RN #and just to close the loop chiron is all other male gods and also medusa and it's so!!!#we don't have time to unpack all that but t #it's always rotating in my mind

seeing so many videos on YT lately that are like “I read this dark romance book and i’m calling the police” or some condescending put-down derivative

babe if it’s not for you then put it down and find something new to read nobody wants an hour-long video of you yucking someone’s yum

#tired of people acting holier than thou bc something goes against the norm #leigh speaks #if it's bad then who gives a shit honestly #have we learned nothing #there will always be an audience for something #'if it doesn't have a happy ending then i don't want it'#eat! my! ass!#this sounds super aggro sorry but this is like the third video like this i've inexplicably had recommended to me this week #if you don't like dark romance then fine i hope someone picks you at last be on your merry way #but just bc it squicks you out doesn't mean it isn't valid to someone else #listen i hated 50 shades as much as anyone else back in the day and then at one point i realized #this is a lot of people's favorite book and i don't have to agree with them but it also isn't fair to make them feel shitty over it #so i ignored it and moved on and stopped dogpiling onto it bc i wasn't the audience for it and! that's! ok!#not to say that it wasn't problematic bc it was but that's veering from the topic #most if not all dark romance is problematic anyway but! it's FICTION and people forget that #like come on feysand started out preetttttyyyy problematic in acotar and bc of its origins i do consider it partly a dark romance #look at me writing an essay here when i should be working on other stuff ok i'm done

bestie what did u think of enjoy the ride?

omg ok so i will be honest that i was a little bummed when it dropped that it was only 2 new songs and the rest were singles/interludes bUT I do absolutely love it overall <333 the transition from the intro to fake deep had me going crazyyy. I also really love that the whole piece feels really cohesive !!! I think - personally - a lot of albums/eps feel kind of all over the place?? or are ordered in a way that I personally wouldn't put them but I wouldn't have ordered this one any differently!!! playlist was the perfect end for it <3 so as a whole body of work, it flows so fucking well!!!!!! I do think I personally still like her 2020 album a leetle bit more but overall, I enjoyed the fuck out of it!!! and now, because you asked me hehe, I'm gonna do a ranking of my favorites <3

fake deep remains THAT BITCH and will not change for me <3

playlist (i am so fucking obsessed with the chorus and also her voice just sounds really good on this song!!!)

pistol (absolute fucking banger; really like the beat - the "baby pull me closer" part rubs my brain RIGHT)

miss u (just fucking cute, always makes me smile and kick my feet)

if I die (really love the lyrics!!!!!! and i think it'll get stuck in my head)

anxiety (love the fucking chorus!!!!!)

liar (makes me feel like a bad bitch)

coma (love the lyrics and many parts of the song but it gets a wee bit too techno(?) for me at times)

bodybag (too techno for my taste; don't really vibe w/ it)

#pigeon #anon #hehe thanks for asking !!!!!!!#yeah i really love it overall!!!#i do prefer the first album bc it's more stripped down and im not really a synth girly but <3 still would recommend #i didnt include the intro and interlude bc they're just instrumental really and so I don't vibe w/ them that heavy #i put off listening to the album for a bit bc i was being whiney abt most of the songs being singles #BUT #THERE IS A PART TWO #so i am excited for that!!!!!#i really want another song from her that's like Give it All to Me bc that's one of my faves #im really curious as to how her live shows are gonna go and how she's gonna sound live #and how these songs will sound live
