R u the person who made that Icarus post like "don't call yourself better than him bc you have the benefit of his example"?

I've been listening to Icarus by Bastille on heavy repeat lately and keep thinkin bout that post

yeah that was me. ngl i'm not sure why that resonated with so many people because it seemed like a fairly straightforward statement to me but i'm glad it did nonetheless.

#it was 'you are not better than icarus just because you have the benefit of his example' btw. i still remember that for some reason.

Hey Simon 💜,

9, 10, 11, 14, 19, 20, 21, 23, 27, 28, 29 and 30 for the music ask thingie (sorry I know those are a lot feel free to just answer to the ones you want to answer)

Hope you'll have a wonderful rest of the day!

Hiiii Sophia! Thank you so much for all the numbers! I skipped some that I already got in another ask 💜💜💜

9:A song that makes you happy

Ohhh, I immediately think of photosynthese by Dilla & emi x because we somehow always end up listening to that when we are having a fun game or dance or just vibing night with my friends and so I've been pavloved to get instant happiness from it!

10:A song that makes you sad

Oh god, SO many!!! But Little Death by +44 will aaaaalways hit so hard. Aaaaand I love that we had those talks about connecting it to Wilmon hehe <3

14:A song that you would love played at your wedding

Oh this question feels like a biiig commitment. But I thought of I'm Ready (specifically the MTV Unplugged version) by Bryan Adams and I feel like that's a very good slow dance wedding song, although it also makes me wanna cry, but maybe that's a good thing?

19:A song that makes you think about life

Welcome Home, Son by Radical Face just feels like... idk. Nostalgia and future at the same time? I can't explain it tbh. Also I don't even think I know the lyrics, whenever that song comes up I am 100% vibes.

20:A song that has many meanings to you

Pheeeeew hmmm, this is very difficult because I usually settle on one interpretation for most songs I listen to. I guess one of my all time favorites that I don't have a fixed interpretation for is Stockholm Syndrome by blink-182

21:A favorite song with a person’s name in the title

Is it cheating if it's a name from ancient myths? Because if not, I've got two for you! Icarus by Bastille (this song fucks, I have no other way of explaining it) and Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youths (thanks for the fire fanfic title and for the beautiful ache in my heart I get literally every single time I listen to this)

23:A song that you think everybody should listen to

This is so much harder than ALL the other questions, omfg. One song that feels so... magical that I want lots more people to know it is Familiar by Agnes Obel

30:A song that reminds you of yourself

Okay instead of going kinda philosophical with this: Walking Disaster by Sum 41 will not only forever be the soundtrack of my teenage years, but "Son of all bastards" (aka the title of this very blog lol) is easily one of my favorite lines ever and feels very me

Send me music asks

Nine..."Ship" Songs

Tagged by the ever so lovely @ghostoffuturespast who is so patient with me as I get through my tagged backlogs thank you as always for thinking of me ❤️❤️

I put "ship" in a very loose sense because my V and Johnny's relationship is platonic and it really does show in a lot of the songs that I think represent my take on SilverV-- a lot of songs about hate and anger but still managing to find the twisted parts of love even through it, and a lot more focused on a vague sense of devotion rather than explicit love. That being said, I do really like my selections for these two and had some struggles narrowing it down...I had a lot to choose from lol.

I'm a little late to the party on this one. Is there anyone that hasn't been tagged and wants to do it? Please feel free if so!

Anyway here are my 9 songs (I think Spotify previews are broken on this site now? So I linked YT versions, but you can find all these on Spotify as well)

Conversations With My Friends by X Ambassadors

I keep having conversations with myself Because I'm not friends with anybody else I'd like to think I'm independent, but I'm just fucking lonely It may be time for me to get some help

Beings by Madeon

These will be times that I won't miss Don't blame me if I don't come through I've spent a lifetime on this But I would give it up for you

Icarus & Apollo by Ripto

I remember when You told me you were afraid to die And then you grabbed my hand Just above the kitchen table

Hopefully by The Royal Foundry

I say, change in your pocket so close, you can reach it But you won't give change to the poor, 'cause you need it Force out the fears of being lost and afraid You cover your eyes and your ears, but you scream out hate

The Descent by Bastille feat. Lily Moore, Moss Kena, and Jacob Banks

I looked up to you Oh, I trusted you I put faith in you-- guess that's what you do Now I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down

The Killing Kind by Mariana's Trench

What if I was wrong by never moving on, I Didn't realize who's gone The ghost of me was true, but you were haunted too, just Didn't see it all along

Say Yes to Life by Gang of Youths

I was furious and dumb, lighting fires through the town I'd play the fiddle and forget whatever I was pissed about I know that most of you relates to some extent And god, I know how lame it sounds But I'm glad I became more human

Devils by Amelia Curran

But God's no rebel, he's a handyman Quartz and coppers and law of the land And you won't hear me in the harmony The way you listen to your devils in the minor key

Where The River Goes by House Phone

I go back to the river, and I don't think it means anything at all I've been withered bone-deep; I keep heckling your ghost See, I gave everything I've left and let it sink And now there's nothing but to drink

#Cyberpunk 2077 #CP2077 #V #My V #Riley Aldana #Johnny Silverhand #I chose this image because it's (currently) the cover of one of my Cyberpunk-themed playlists >:3 #and also I haven't had the chance to get new shots lol #Other songs I were going to use were Fangs by Little Red Lung #How Not to Drown by CHVRCHES #Dear Dictator by Saint Motel #VANDERLIGHT by Stop Light Observations #And What If It Doesn't End Well by chloe morinado #Aldi speaks

What new music are you listening to?

My music taste is all over the place. Recently I've been looping Icarus by Bastille, Middle of the Night by Loveless, and the Rio and Happy Feet soundtracks, with a little bit of Heathers and Mean Girls mixed in, and the occasional Hell's Comin' with Me by Poor Man's Poison. This will most likely all change within a week or two

#my music taste is #so insane and random #it never stays with one thing for long #one month its corpse #another its the greatest showman #then princess and the pauper soundtrack #then glass animals #then owl city #then maroon 5 #then anime openings #then a mix of music by artists i dont remember cause its all different people #then i'll occasionally loop throwbacks #who knows at any given time #TMI tuesday #yes i know its wednesday now #ask

Spotify Wrapped! 29, 40, 100

29: Battle Cry by Imagine Dragons. THE BUILD UP OF THAT SONG. But the lyrics "Stars are only visible in darkness/ fear is everchanging and evolving/ and I, I've been poisoned inside/ but I, i feel so alive" will tattoo this on my brain if I have to. Honsetly if I ever get a tattoo top things I would tattoo.

40: Icarus by Bastille. Fun thing about this song, outside of listening to it normally, I also listen to this when I have like no gas in my car, less than 20 miles. And I think that happened like 15 times this year. At one point had no gas in my car, made it to the gas station though.

100: We Wish We Were Kids by Chuck Criss. So this actually made me tear up a little, cause Chuck Criss died this year. So seeing one of his songs make it on my wrapped really just hit. Cause even though I never met him, his music is still here. I'm still able to help keep his memory alive, you know.

9. A song that makes you nostalgic

God. Just one? Okay. I'm gonna go with CIRNO'S PERFECT MATH CLASS! It's one of my most genuine nostalgia songs next to Triple Baka, which has no official Spotify upload. Also must pay my respects to Miku Miku ni Shite Ageru by ika. The only version on spotify is a live version which absolutely rocks, but does not elicit the Nostalgia in me that the original does, so here's the original too!

23. A song from 2013

Icarus - Bastille. I could also go with Pompeii off the same album, I like them equally.

29. A song you unexpectedly really like

There's not really a lot of "unexpected" with me, I think. I kinda pride myself on my ability to listen to most things and enjoy them… I suppose, for a man with Autism and who's really sensitive to noises, I really do like harsh music that hurts my head. I can't really think of an example right now, but I do mean like ear stabbing shit. There have been a few songs you specifically have played before that are the kind of songs that make someone see colors that I've rather enjoyed.

35. A song that makes you want to go on an adventure

Is it cheating to put a video game song on here. I think it probably is. Too bad. His World - Theme of Sonic The Hedgehog is one of many Sonic songs that make me wish I could do backflips and run around and shit. It makes me want to do dangerous speeds in a car.

50. Your absolute favorite song (or just right now)

I'm listening to my Sonic song playlist I cannot be held accountable for my opinion being skewed right now. I think Knight Of The Wind is one of my favourite songs ever frankly. It was formative to me as a child. Permanently shaped who I am.

Icarus (Keigo Takami x Reader)

Summary: You had been in an endearing relationship with Keigo Takami, aka the Number 2 Pro Hero, Hawks, for quite some time. Yet, despite the fact that you possess a quirk called Dark Wind where you can “produce shadowy gusts of wind, thus trapping victims in wraithlike spheres,” you've never tried flying while doing so. So, Keigo suggests flying while trapping both of you in a sphere. What happens when you fly too close to the Sun?

Warning: Reader has a bit of acrophobia (fear of heights, like me), Hawks eating fried chicken (I ALWAYS FOUND THIS WEIRD LMAO HELP), mentions of symptoms of vertigo, accident, trauma, Hawks' wings being soft and cuddly (yes Ro your imagination's helping me out here hehe). Also, mentions of sun burning? Also, there will be mentions of being scared, afraid, fearful. Please let me know if I've missed out on any more warnings.

Shyna's Seiyuu Birthday Celebration

Number of words: 3075

Tagging: @kiiraes @akaashi-todorki @cuz-like-why-not (I definitely thought about you for this) @miikoos @novaresque @kennyb0y @beware-of-the-rogue @burnthoneymint (also, thank you so much for the moodboard Sil, it definitely helped with my inspiration 🤍) @saltyvanilla @hyeque

Let me know here if you want to be tagged on more content like this :)

A/N: I’d planned this to be done during the Seiyuu birthday celebration week…but didn’t happen lol, anyway let's talk about this guy!! I think it's only when I came to watching Kuroo that I'd noticed that he, Gojo, Bruno and Hawks have the same VA. So I was very surprised and I started to get invested in his character. He seemed like an enigmatic character to me. Now, I know about the lore of Icarus and how pride goes before a fall. However, in my head, I had this image of Keigo flying with the sun setting in the background, and this song came in my head. So, let's see how it goes. Also, did I tell you, that I have acrophobia as well? I recently figured it out in May 2019 when I went on a rollercoaster in this park called Six Flags and it was named The Batman 🤣 but yeah, I hope this writing resonates with you as it does with me. Also, anything related to My Hero Academia (the character, the setup) belongs to Kohei Horikoshi but the storyline is mine, so reblogs, likes, and comments are highly appreciated <3

Your hands protect the flames From the wild winds around you

Icarus is flying too close to the sun And Icarus' life, it has only just begun

"Would you like more fried chicken, baby?" Keigo calls out to you while chomping on some wings, but you're distracted by the view from your balcony. You turn to him, raise an amused eyebrow, and say, "I still don't understand how you can eat fried chicken when you're literally a..." "A bird?" It caused you to flare your nostrils in irritation as he mocked the way you said it. He chuckles and extends his hand with a smile, saying, "c'mere, mi Amor," to which you point and say, "Listen, honey, you've got to wash your hands, okay?" He laughs. You see him walk over to the nearest basin to wash his hands, and when he returns, he notices you standing with your arms folded, and you exhale exasperatedly. He then pulls you into a warm embrace, oblivious to your protests. His wings were curled about you, massaging your back with their points. The tension in your shoulders then dissipated as you melted into his embrace.

You first encountered Keigo on a mission when he ended up saving you rather than you saving everyone. When learning about all of the current Pro Heroes, that's when you'd come across his name. You'd discovered that he'd founded his own hero agency at the age of 18, while you were only starting out as a pro hero. This motivated you to persevere and carry out your responsibilities to the best of your ability. While on patrol, you were able to apprehend several thieves and other petty criminals thanks to your one-of-a-kind quirk. You also had rapid reflexes, allowing you to detect problems and fly accordingly. However, while everyone was praising you, none of them were aware that you had had acrophobia when you were a child when you first discovered your quirk and attempted to fly with it. That's when it ruptured, causing you to fall and bruise your knees. Even though there were no serious injuries, you still have flashbacks from the episode that make you nervous.

Whenever you were above a certain height while you were entrapped in your sphere, you were grateful that you were in the sphere, as even the slightest downward eye movement caused your heart to pace, your brain to feel dizzy, and your breathing to hitch all the time. However, you were able to put on a smile and pretend that you were okay, until one day when, on your patrol, your sphere burst and you started falling. You could build another sphere, but it would consume the extra energy from you, causing you to panic, only to feel some hands underneath you as you were flying higher. You turn and to your surprise, you saw that it was Hawks lifting you. Heaving a huge sigh of relief, you kept thanking him profusely for saving your life when he said, "it's okay, (Y/N), right? you seemed out of it anyway. You should take a breather. I'll help you out," giving you a big smirk as he flew with the help of his wings.

The next time you saw each other was at a party, where he kept bothering you about that moment, prompting you to become irritated with him until he answered by placing a hand on your shoulder and stating, "I was only toying with you, (Y/N). I assumed you'd be used to that by now," leading you to frown at him while he enjoys it. So when your friends put you up on a blind date with him, it irritated you because your friends knew how much you disliked his seemingly heartless nature. You went forward with the date anyway because you needed to get over your ex, who constantly mistreated you and made you feel useless, even getting angry when Hawks saved you. However, when you do meet Hawks when you see him, he's wearing this black shirt with beige pants and a brown overcoat. He even styled his usually unkempt blond hair, but still kept the yellow visor on, taking it off whenever necessary.

You subconsciously bite your lower lip in nervousness, because you were supposed to be furious at the whole ordeal, yet his charming look seemed to have melted you temporarily. Shaking your head, you take your seat and sit opposite Keigo. "You're Hawks, aren't you?" you asked, with your arms on the table and your chin resting on your palms. "All of my friends keep telling me I should date you." "Sounds like they have fantastic taste," grinned this smug-looking Pro Hero. You scoff at his response, flinging your head back. You snicker as you swat your hand in the air. "Is that true? Do they have a good sense of taste? I had no idea they had trouble telling the difference between cocky men and confident men." He chuckled, "Cocky? Me? Aww, why did you think so? " You furrow your eyebrows and respond, "I will not deny that I was in awe of your stellar career. However, do you even take the job seriously? One mistake, and my reputation is in ruins. But you? You seem to care a hoot about these things!"

"Oh, so that's what it's all about? The time when you fell while flying?" He said it very nonchalantly, as your breathing hitches all over again. "Hawks, please!" you say softly when he puts his hand on yours and says, "Keigo, call me Keigo. We're on a blind date and should be on a first-name basis." You were clueless about the impact of his voice, but you were sure that his calm, smooth voice caused your trembling heart to feel much better. "Do you, by any chance, have acrophobia?" Keigo finally says it, causing you to open your eyes wide in shock. Unaware as to how to reply, you nod in agreement. A smile appeared on his countenance, after which he said, "Don't worry, (Y/N). We'll look into it together. Okay?" That's when you felt the baggage in you slowly subside.

The next day, determined to overcome your acrophobia, you decide to join his Pro Hero Agency. Sure, Keigo's seemingly nonchalant behavior did irk you at times but, he did keep telling you to look straight at the horizon while flying, instead of looking down. As time passed by, you had no qualms while forming these gusts of wind, to form spheres to trap you and Keigo in them. There were times when he put his arms around your waist, to help you stay steady. Also, should the sphere burst again, you'd fall down and Hawks' wings would be able to support you and fly you to the ground, safely. Over the months that passed by, every touch of his would slowly start to send shivers down your spine, albeit for different reasons. Firstly, out of sheer embarrassment, then out of feeling a sense of comfort, and then eventually, out of a sense of feeling something for him. You, however, would refuse to admit that you'd started to feel for him. The moment you admitted it to yourself was the moment you'd start to avoid him.

It had been a week since. Every day when you’d wake up and still curl in the pearl white comforters with the window above your head with the sun slowly shining her magnificent hues on you, he would always be the first person you’d think of. “I want to fly with him,” you’d mutter to yourself when you, in fact, weren’t even ready to confess to yourself that you like him. Whenever you’d come to the office during that week, you’d hear him chirpily call out your name as he’d walk towards you, but you’d try your best not to speak much unlike the usual banter the two of you would share. You'd simply ask for your orders and then excuse yourself. Hawks found this amusing and figured that you were wanting to be focused on your work and on honing your quirk, so he'd decided to ignore you, until the day Tokoyami showed up.

In your first case with Tsukuyomi on your team, you had ignored every order that Hawks would give you, rather you'd do the opposite. This irked him so much that he held your wrist as you were walking past him, and he ordered, in an albeit louder tone, "Listen, (Y/N), I understand that you're working on yourself, but when it comes to teamwork, I will not let you jeopardize that. Alright?" You then turned to him and decided to do what you should've done before, "Hawks, I'm sorry," staring at him with an apologetic gaze on your face. "It's just that lately, I may or not have been developing..." you couldn't continue as you shrugged your shoulders in embarrassment, while a tint of blush hit your cheeks.

He then cups your face with one of his warm hands, saying, "If you're saying that you developed feelings for me and were too scared to face them, so you began to avoid me, then a) the training didn't help you mentally, and b) you were totally oblivious to my feelings for you. Either way, I don't want to let our relationship get in the way of saving lives. Alright?" That's when he holds hands with you, giving you a slight glimpse of assurance that he's not going to leave you. He then drags you metaphorically to an unknown future, where moments of self-doubt like these would occur, but a gentle pressing of your hands followed by the brightest smile that Keigo's ever given, conveyed to you that at least you won't be going through this alone.

Still immersed in his embrace, you say to him, fake coughing, "Honey, you're squishing me." He replies, "No, I'm not planning to let you go," and hugs you tighter. The moment he slowly releases you from the hug, you slither out of the hug like a pro, chuckling all the way. Smirking at you as you are walking away from him onto the railing of the balcony, he hugs you from behind. He has his chin on your left shoulder trap muscle, his stubble slightly grazing against your skin, causing you to feel lightly ticklish. You mentally resign to the fact that he wasn't letting you escape out of his sight. Since the day you two had confessed your feelings to each other, it'd been four years. During this time, you'd not only grown closer to Keigo and had fallen in love with him, but he had also helped you overcome your fear of heights. In addition, you helped him get over a lot of baggage from his past. The phobia did mitigate for a while, however, there were certain times where flashbacks occurred and the symptoms manifested all over again.

“Oh look, babe,” you call out to Keigo as you point towards the Sun. As he looks at what you point out to him, both of you observe the multiple colors she radiates as she slowly starts to set in. “Babe, have you read about Icarus?” he softly asks you, causing you to feel flustered. Ignoring it, you continue, “yes, I did. To escape the maze they were in, his father Daedalus made wings out of feathers and wax but warned him that if he was to fly too close to the ocean, the weight of the wings would cause him to drown and if he flew too close to the Sun, then the wax on the wings would melt. When they started to fly, it was hard initially, but Icarus picked it up quickly. Too quickly to a point where he thought to himself to fly a little higher, that's when he flew too close to the Sun. Because of his hubris, the wax in his wings..."

He smiled in response and said, "...started to melt, causing him to fall into a sea and drown. I see that someone read those books that I gifted to them on their birthday," and kissed the temple of your head, causing you to smile in response. Suddenly, a weird thought creeps in your head and you look into his eyes and ask with a raised eyebrow, "Please don't tell me that you want to take me and fly to the Sun to see the sunset up close. Do you?" He smirks again, saying, "well, I see that you can read minds too. Impressive," carrying you by your waist to the top of the building, give you one of his visors, asks you to bend your knees along with him, and jumps off the edge while you screamed, "Keigo, stop! What the heck?!" He shouted, "Keep looking straight, do not, even for a second, lose focus. Activate your quirk, stat!" You take a deep breath, then controlled the gusts of wind near you with your hands and waved them around like you would wave around a crystal ball, causing the wind around the both of you to darken and form a sphere, but leaving out a small opening enough for your faces to see the direction with which you're flying.

You did as what he instructed you to do, to not lose focus on the Sun, not even for a second. However, as you kept concentrating, you felt your heart beating fast. You started to contemplate. The Sun melted the wax off Icarus' wings, but Hawks' wings? They could scorch and burn...plus the Sun is a ball of energy. The energy itself would cause a difference in the air pressure causing the sphere to burst. You start talking with a tone of concern, "Keigo, please don't be impulsive. The Sun will burn your wings.."

"I know it will," he says. "Listen, when I told you that I want to help you overcome acrophobia, I meant it. Now is the chance." Wait, you start to think, all of this, is to help you overcome your fears? You roll your eyes at him and say, "You know something, Hawks? You're really off your rocker right now." He shrugs and chuckles, saying, "Tell me something new, (Y/N). Now, charge towards it." The plan seemed really bizarre, but he flapped his wings harder as you kept controlling the gusts of wind around you and let your focus be on the Sun. No sooner did you come near her, however, than the heat waves started to warm the sphere around you. Even though you were able to see shades of purple, red, and orange all over the sky, she was still a huge ball of energy. She gave life and she could take it away too. That is when he shouted, "(Y/N), look down!" You couldn't believe what Hawks was asking of you right now. Nevertheless, the moment you looked down, the sphere burst, causing you to lose your balance, and when you thought he was holding you, he let you go. he let you go. You were not sure whether he did it accidentally or on purpose, but suddenly, he let you go.

You did not want to scream when you started to fall, as you were a Pro Hero and had a reputation to establish, however, you were scared. With fear controlling you, you immediately made a sphere and trapped yourself in, again. This time, you exhaled sharply a couple of times and let the sphere dissipate back into the air. You widen your eyes to realize that you were on a houseboat, decorated with fairy lights, white and beige curtains, and a table set up for the two of you. Wait, what? "Did you like my surprise?" You heard a familiar voice call out to you and you see him approaching towards you, with the very same outfit that he wore on the blind date where you two met. You scowl at him, in anger and shout, "How dare you let me go? You said that you wouldn't..." He puts his hands forward to calm you down and said, "Listen, how do you feel now? Really?"

That's when you took a deep breath and turned around to look at the Sun still setting down. You then looked up along the path you took to reach the boat and that's when you realized that your fear was slowly slipping away. Maybe he gave the phrase "face your fears" a new meaning. "Keigo did you..." He pulled a chair out for you and said, "plan our four-year anniversary date? yes, plan the flying? no not at all," and continued to laugh. You gave him a straight face as you sit down in the chair he pulled out for you. When he does sit down, however, you notice that a part of his wings had been burned, and his hands had gold glitter on them. "Keigo, are you okay?" Your mouth gaped wide open and your eyes were widened in concern. He then holds your hands in his, covering your hand with glitter as well, saying, "I'm fine. I knew this will happen. But, at least, you'll now be able to soar for a long time," he smiled softly at you. "Happy anniversary, you flying chicken," you say, giggling, "I love you." He chuckles and says, "Happy anniversary, baby. Here's to more flying and falling," grinning at you. You furrowed your eyebrows at him, lightly hitting his hand, saying, "Gosh, will you stop it, Hawks?"

If you’ve come till here, thank you so much. Hope you have a great weekend ahead. Also, I need a Hawks now, help. Also, finally, finally, finally. I finally did it. I sincerely hope you enjoyed reading it. <333
