nuzzles my face against my baby ryan 🥺💖

[ID: Three images; the first is Picasso's "The Old Guitarist", showing an extremely old and pale man, crosslegged, head bowed tiredly, playing a guitar. The second image shows the painting in black and white, with another painting faintly visible underneath; most notably a woman's face is visible just above the old man's. The final image is a version of the underpainting, showing a nude woman seated, knees together, one arm around her torso, her other hand outstretched.]

For some reason best known only to him, one of my very early school teachers had a poster of Picasso's The Old Guitarist hanging in our classroom. I don't know how other people view it because it's a very iconic image, but I was fascinated with it as a kid because it was deeply unsettling and weird -- I also used to stare at the horror movie box covers near the register at our local video rental store for much the same reason. I like the painting a lot, but I've never been able to shake the unsettled feeling around it.

At a recent Art Institute lecture, the speaker mentioned that they'd done some imaging on it and they believe it to have been painting on an old wooden door, and that there was a whole separate painting of a woman underneath it. Which is very, uh, Picasso. There's an interesting article here about "rebuilding" the painting using "neural style transfer" which is basically an early AI art engine that trains on Picasso's other work, then looks at the image and rebuilds it. (Before anyone gets all fucked up about it, this was in 2019, before the current AI art nonsense.)

I just thought it was cool, and I'd never seen the under-image before. She's not nearly as unsettling, although the third image still has a touch of the eerie about it.

Family Pack #3

I’m happy to share some sims with you all today! In this post, you’ll find 10 households (40 sims total), each with their own stories and biographies. All of these sims have additional Everyday outfits, skills, bonus traits, Likes and Dislikes, sexual orientations, pronouns, family dynamics, and Lifestyles. You can find them all on the gallery under my Origin ID: TheLastAirSimmer or in the tray files linked under the cut! As always, feel free to tag me if you end up using them.

Guillroy-Jeong

Some families don’t survive a divorce. That wasn’t the case for the Guillory’s; in fact, it only brought Aston and Déon closer. Déon had never considered that the fisherman was experiencing a midlife crisis until he married Willow, a joyful artist half his age. Things were tense initially, but seeing how happy she made Aston was enough to diffuse the tension until Uriel arrived. Déon wants to support this new dynamic, but a needy toddler in the mix might force them to branch out of their bubble.

Carbone

For better or worse, Greta has always been one to stand by her choices. She’s had a song in her heart from a young age, but put her dreams of being a pianist to the side once Albie was born. She works as a teacher to support her family, but hopes one day to play again. However, it would be good enough to see Albie fulfill his own dreams of becoming a professional dancer, temperamental though he may be. Like her mother and brother, Beatrice too is unapologetically developing musical aspirations.

Duggal

When Bikram and Mia wed, they agreed their careers would come first before starting a family. Their first pregnancy surprised them, but Bikram pivoted to adjust to the new circumstances. Mia, however, was eager to get back to work after the birth. As a doctor, she provided enough for Bikram to cut back at the restaurant and care for Parker. There was a cost, though; today, Parker resents Mia. Wanting to avoid repeating that mistake, Mia is keen on loving her boys, the nerdy Antwan and wary Levi.

Salamé

Being raised by Adeline had a profoundly different effect on her kids. Dasia, the eldest, often butted heads with the stubborn matriarch and found comfort in her high school sweetheart Imman. Baqil, the obvious favorite, stayed on the set path and wants to make her proud (coffee is his best friend when it comes to staying on top of his classes). Having married and had kids too young, Dasia and Imman reluctantly moved in and Adeline has since been keen on taking control of the girls’ rearing.

Lavigne-Jarrah

Falling for an artist was not at all what Rahim had planned. As an engineer, he values structure and practicality, but Gabrielle offers him a new lens to see the world through. This interior designer also takes note from her husband and has adopted his attention to detail in her own work. Their daughter Francesca has her moms’ creative spirit and shows promise (even if she focuses more on boys in her class than her painting skills) and Xavier is more interested in gaming than being book smart.

Newkirk

Landon had made many futile attempts to woo his high school crush Johanna, but it wasn’t until he sang a song for her on his guitar that she noticed him. They remain together today, accepting of the others’ quirks. Johanna can often fly off the handle, but Landon is always there to ease her mind. They try to do their part to save the world and instill ecofriendly values in their kids; lessons that young Averie has taken in good spirits. The unpredictable Reagan, however, is a different story.

Tillman

Not long ago, Siobhan was living her dream; traveling and performing music with her friends. But creative differences led to a massive falling out and the band split up. Now directionless, she moved in with her older sister Bianca, who was happy to reconnect after years apart (and maybe get some help with her two boys) but Siobhan may as well be a third child. Desmond and Cale love having their aunt around though, and it’s nice at times to get a reprieve so Bianca can focus on her meditation.

Oertel

A woman of science with a lot of love to give, Sandra knew early on that she wanted to have a child and give them the warm upbringing that she never had. Despite not having a partner, she decided to undergo in-vitro fertilization. She certainly did a good job of instilling Jonas with a high level of confidence (almost to a point of arrogance) and even as a grown man, he has Sandra wrapped around his finger. He doesn’t take his studies seriously, but has a passion for all things outdoors.

Kwame-Zhang

Lily and Daphanie were ready to take on San Myshuno and on their way to becoming a power couple. Or so Lily thought, until Daphanie changed course. After adopting the girls, Daphanie drove a hard bargain on moving to a quieter part of town. She was able to adjust as a fashion designer, sending off submissions from the comfort of her home. Lily however finds herself commuting to the city, unwilling to forfeit her spot as an up-and-coming food critic, despite missing quality time with her family.

Silva-Ortiz

Gustavo takes his values seriously and expects others to do the same. Quite a negotiator, his wife Flavia is able to use her husbands’ political network to pass her green initiatives around town. Though cohesive as a pair, they differed in their parenting styles; Flavia always trusted her sons’ judgement while Gustavo often quarreled with their eldest Robbie, who only wants to party. Averse to conflict, Paolo does as he’s told, even forgoing his own wants to throw himself fully into his studies.

hey hi hello!! i saw that these were open and i wanted to take part in them. new follower by the way (^_^) and happy 300 followers!!

im an introvert, usually very quiet and calm and rather hard to provoke at times. i'm easily irritated and lack patience with people who don't really think things through (though i grow warm over time as i grow tolerant in SOME cases). im very loyal and reliable as told by my friends and act similarly to a nagging aunt of sorts?? i'm rational and rather stubborn in the things i do but i relent depending on the severity of things. im also quite petty in certain cases.

i've been told it's easy to be around myself as a person, and people are really comfortable to be themselves in my presence. generally, i'm very blunt since i don't know how to phrase my words any better and some people (& even friends) at times, take the things that i say the wrong way without meaning to. i tend to get along with most people as long as they deal with the same mutual respect back.

i'm rather sarcastic and tend to tease a lot out of the fun of it. it's really easy to get me flustered, especially with flirts because the first thing i'd do is laugh and try to get out of there as soon as possible 😭 i think use both my words and actions equally since i (usually) follow up with what i say. i have tendencies to be a people watcher and observe people going about their day..

i wouldn't really consider myself the most passionate or enthusiastic person either but i really enjoy listening to those who have one. really makes me happy to see people enjoy the things they do. in a sense, i like when people have the things that i lack (energy, passion etc) i just love seeing it A TON. at times, i also have trouble in wording the things that i want to say so it ends up falling flat at times. so i wouldnt say im the most persuasive person either.

appearance wise, i'm about 5'4 and on the chubbier side of things. i have brown skin, really dark brown eyes and 4B black hair. i have small hands and lots of moles on my body but specifically i have 1 on each cheek. as for interests im really into anything that interests me since i get bored easily. most things that catch my attention are typology, videogames, music and gardening. im also learning to play the bass guitar as well. id prefer male interests from the hobbit, thank you!! hope that you have a good night/day!!

Thank you for joining the following! Hope it’s been a pleasant stay 💚 Hopefully I’ve found the right man dwarf for you when I say…

Fili!

One of your first conversations involves you rolling your eyes about having to show one of the older dwarves how to use something; Fili overhears and adds some sass and the rest is history. You’re quiet, he grants, but you provide the best commentary he’s heard beyond all the jokes with his little brother and it’s relaxing to sit by your side as you practice your instrument. Soon he begins making more normal conversation, asking things like what you want to do when this whole journey is over. You aren’t sure, you admit; you went on this quest because you were tired of simply watching life go by. “Then why not stay in the Lonely Mountain?” Fili asks. “Won’t be so lonely when we’re done with it, after all.” “What will your uncle think?” You arch a brow. “Don’t worry about him,” the golden-haired dwarf waves a hand, “I can handle him. Convince him denying outsiders is a bit elven of him, you know.” You can’t help giggling at that.

Soon you two are at each other’s sides more often, backing each other up in fights and moving in great sync. Your strikes build off his and vice versa, and he once convinces you to essentially let him toss you into the fray. You, him, and Kili are quite the menaces together! They always save you a seat between them at fireside, quips flying between you three. Kili holds you there so Fili can flirt with you, having learned you're quite a runner when you get flustered. Nice try, Fili thinks you're too cute like that!

Sometimes you get frustrated with each other, and interestingly enough it is over a shared trait- both of you are very self-sacrificing. Loyalty dominates, leading both of you to block thoughts of self out to save others and put yourselves in compromising situations and danger. The other confronts and sometimes things snap or blow up, but these are the moments when you realize how much you care about each other. Fili takes you in his arms and tells you he loves how stubborn and caring you are, but it would kill him if anything were to happen to you. It is during one of these arguments that you admit your feelings for each other, biting them out in the heat of the moment and effectively halting the argument in favor of battle by your lips instead.

He loves to cut off flustered words with a kiss to each cheek or a quick peck on your lips. Your small hands fit perfectly in his; he loves holding one between his or both to keep them warm! One of his favorite forms of affection with you, that as well as walking arm-in-arm. Fili absolutely adores your hair, too. Gorgeous curls he would be happy to learn how you care for and of course braid if you let him! At least once, so he can show the world you're his king/queen and no one else. "That's right," he adds the proud remark every time he says those words.

Your enjoyment of gardening intrigues the dwarf, who grew up with the pride of mining, jewelry-making, and chemistry in his people. Loving growing things is quite charming, bringing the prince to investigate what plants can stay underground as you move with him into your lovely mountain nook. He helps you dig up the freshest soil and buys you the most beautiful stoneware pots for your plants. Also insists on naming them, so have fun with that! It's just one of his habits, like the little jigs he does when you get playing your music. He's stubborn and silly and selfless and that is why you love him.

obsessed with how klavier's canon timeline just fully makes no sense.

his trial against phoenix is his first, right. at this point, the gavinners are already famous enough to perform expensive concerts, due to their debut single hitting platinum overnight. we don't know when this happened, just that it had to be before the gramarye trial, because klavier talks about it there. ok.

when kristoph talks to him before the trial, in the flashback, we briefly see klavier's office, that already seems to have guitars all over the wall. that's not necessarily an inconsistency, it just means that even before he ever went to court, klavier had that office, and enough money to cram it full of guitars, which also suggests they aren't necessarily like a carefully curated collection, but were in fact just some 16~17 year old guy who just got a lot of money and bought 50 guitars at once in some sort of teenage frenzy.

we also don't know when exactly he took the bar exam, only that he took it in europe. obviously, it was before that first trial, so he might have even been younger than 17, but we don't know.

my favorite part, though, is that he says that daryan was the first detective he'd ever worked with, which can also mean a number of really weird things. clearly, the gavinners existed before klavier started prosecuting, so,

either he knew daryan before daryan was a detective, and they started the band together and then both also started into their law enforcement lives, in which case its hilariously strange of klavier to say that he was the first detective he ever worked with. like, i guess, but you also knew him when you were in high school.

or the gavinners existed without daryan for a short time, which seems unlikely, but would also be really funny given they had a platinum hit without this dude then. and then klavier starts working with a detective and is like hey you should join my glam rock band. yeah youve heard of us

or klavier worked with him on a case he just didnt prosecute, either because it didnt go to trial, or maybe he worked on it for school or something, which then implies that either daryan somehow made detective before he hit 20, or daryan is SEVERAL years older than klavier. which, according to canon ages, he is not. they're the same age. but maybe daryan pretends to be 5 years younger or something. wouldn't put it past him. or he pretended to be older with a fake ID so they'd let him into the force (also hilarious). because we know daryan didn't study abroad, since he canonically has never left the country.

and then lastly there's the fact that it is heavily implied that klavier just.... stopped prosecuting after the gramarye trial. or at least the judge hadn't seen him around in a while, and klavier doesn't deny that he was absent, allegedly because his band got so big. we're made to believe that he only returns once he hears of apollo, and yet his office looks the exact same, as far as we can see in pictures. which once again leaves us with two possibilities: klavier's office was left completely untouched for 7 years, or he moved out of there after one trial, and then came back 7 years later and decided, yep, i should put my guitars up again the exact same way i did when i was 17.

there's also a thousand other ways of reading all this really. i honestly think this was all just the writers sort of winging it, and it's not like the mason system doesn't fully fuck up the timeline in that game anyway, so i don't think any of these are any more or less canon than others. they're just fun theories to play around with. what the fuck was this guy doing.

hello! id like to request a twst matchup if it's okay with you!

pronouns: she/he/they, don't really care

gender/sexuality: somewhere on the non binary spectrum, it's just there i guess lol. sexuality is just queer- i don't really confine to a label but i don't have a gender preference

appearance: average height but on the shorter side, like 5'4 last time i checked. im a little chubby and i have a lot of body marks like scars, marks and moles. my hair is mid-length and a little curly. i wear glasses and have several ear piercings too. i wear a lot of baggy clothing; i wouldn't say i have much of a style. i just wear what i feel fits the occasion and is comfortable for me.

personality: my personality type is infp. im a very reserved person who shies away from people and usually i refrain from initiating conversations and stuff unless im pretty close to someone. if i feel comfortable enough or have known someone long enough to feel at least some security, i become less quiet and i joke around. i tend to over share sometimes, and then regret it later. i kinda tend to run my mouth without thinking. i joke a lot, and i'm not a serious person unless someone is in danger or having a rough time. i use humor to cope with like everything, and i like making people laugh. i take pride in being someone who listens/a shoulder to lean on, but i don't like opening up emotionally like that, but if i feel connected to someone i'll try my best. romantically i'm pretty shy, too. i like when people are affectionate to me, but i feel reluctant to initiate anything myself. i'm always fidgeting or moving, as i don't like sitting completely still. if someone pisses me off i can get aggressive, but not physically. i hate being talked down to. i love sugar and sweet things, cute things and animals. i'm not a huge fan of exercise.

hobbies: i love to play instruments and sing; i play guitar and piano, and i wish i could play other instruments too. i also do visual art sometimes, but it's not anything spectacular. i also enjoy history and like learning about niche subjects.

characters i don't want to be matched with: epel, jack, vil, ortho (obviously lol), idia, lilia, jade

Apologies for the wait, I’ve been going through it lads

== Twisted Wonderland ==>

I match you up with…

Cater Diamond 

Cater is super affectionate with you from the get-go. The instant he becomes your friend (or, the instant he declares himself your friend), he’s always hugging and touching you, reminding you to pay attention to him. 

This increases tenfold when you get into a relationship with him. He’ll want everyone to know that you two are together, and so he’ll always be holding your hand and calling you pet names.

At the same time, he’s a very private person. If you want to keep the relationship or any facet of it secret for any reason, he’ll take said secrets to his grave.

Cater will 100% put on a concert and sing for you whenever you play an instrument. He’s suddenly a broadway star, belting his heart out even when it sounds bad, all for you. 

He may not always be interested in the same things you are, but he’ll try to take interest in them. 

One key thing about this relationship is that you both are on the same level with eachother. Cater is an introvert’s extrovert - he respects your boundaries and can even be insightful and intuitive when it comes to your needs. 

He’ll always be aware of your needs and listening, even to the smallest details. 

Introvert and extrovert power couple. 

HI HOWS THE ALBUM (← insane)

you know how when l(glu) was released april said this:

[image ID: a screenshot of text from a page on the song lyric website genius. it reads, "underscores said, 'Everything was too sad. I wanted to have some fun.' the text is white on a dull grey background.]

i underestimated it and i am having a TIME. um so i wrote up some thoughts i had on every song (i don't really know how to properly talk about music but i really like underscores so i am going to say things anyway haha)

(SPOILERS FOR WALLSOCKET BY UNDERSCORES BEYOND THIS POINT. content warnings for songs discussing grooming, war, suicidal ideation and transphobia.)

track 1: Cops & Robbers

i remember mentally exploding when i saw the thumbnail for this pop up on youtube. every time i hear the beginning guitar section my brain chemistry just is like... YEAHHHHHH ITS WALLSOCKET TIME!!!!!! this song just feels so so fun—the "haha gotcha" tone of it, and the speed and energy, and the part where it's like "and its full of all of your money / yEAHHH!!!"—i looped this thing so much until the other singles came out (and then i looped those. a lot.)

i love love love the bridge of this song and it gets stuck in my head all the time

track 2: Locals (Girls Like Us)

it's another underscores and gabby start banger!!!!!!! i love the songs both of these artists make and this one is no exception. immediately when the intro started i was like YEAHHH!!!! and then when the spoken "good luck" suddenly turned into that loud sample "Good Luck!" i was honestly startled enough to jump the first time i listened to it.

this is one of the songs where i don't really get the full symbolism behind everything yet (the whole horse section in the gabby part... basically gabby's entire part actually because i am not sure what the things they mention symbolize)

i really like how the repeating words mantra extends basically throughout the whole song in different ways, and the chorus is so so catchy

track 3: Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

i really enjoy the wordplay underscores uses in her lyrics a lot... like how she describes a fishing lure to play into the "taking the bait" theme in the chorus (at first i was like "huh??? what colorful piece of plastic?" and then i was like OHHHHH!!!!) and how she indirectly alludes to things ("the name of my illness/is just one letter short of my own" - S*nny is five letters and i think this song is about S*nny's queer identity so the four letter word being referenced here might be LGBT??? not sure / and the "my favorite animal is engraved on the sides of my ribs" which i currently don't know the meaning of, but the person on Genius who suggested it was a reference to the creation of Eve makes a really cool point)

the transition in this song to the Patented Louder Ending Section is just soooooo soooo pretty... it gets me every time...

shoutout to this "OH" in particular.

track 4: You Don't Even Know Who I Am

originally when this song came out (both unofficially in "The Story of S*nny", then its official release), it honestly was not my favorite, but now it gets stuck in my head a lot and i don't mind at all! the singing and effects pair really well together. I also really like the intermittent beeping sounds that occasionally show up.

edit: i was lucky enough 2 be able to go to a live show and OH MY GOD was this song SOOOO cool in it. the freaking lightbulb effect is so cool when i realized what was going on with it i screamed

originally when i first started listening to this song i really liked the last loud bit but now i'm not really sure why but it's kind of off to me now? i dont know maybe something about the notes is a little weird to my ears but i still enjoy

track 5: Johnny johnny johnny

oh my god. OHHHHHHHH MY GODDDDD. this song has been stuck in my head since my first listen and will probably stay that way for the next month or so. this song is so amazing. IMMEDIATELY i was extremely intrigued by the way it opened (i had never heard of the Johnny, Johnny hand game thing before, and upon looking it up i was like OH MAN you KNOW the song is going to be mind blowing when it has LAYERS like this).

i think my first impression with this song was that it kind of reminds me a lot of underscores's MARINA covers?? like in a really good way, since i think underscores has mentioned marina as an inspiration and it's so cool seeing how many kinds of music she can make

i also love how like... expressive underscores's voice is, even in ad-libs and effects like the repeated "whoops!" in this song... it adds so much to the atmosphere and the um. growing dread as you realize what this song is about and are more and more aware of the juxtaposition between its topic and its tone. (the "johnny's gonna be the one who finally makes me real" line gets me every time in particular.... aaaaaaa)

this song's climax near the end is also just so so cool... i love how it takes a ton of elements that showed up earlier in the song and suddenly puts them all together (the "johnny johnny johnny johnny whoops" chant suddenly appearing alongside the chorus and transforming as the two are played at the same time)

track 6: Shoot to kill, kill your darlings

HIP, HIP... HOORAY!!! ough. this song. man. MAN. i am so crazy about how well this song tells a detailed story while still being catchy and fun to listen to (same with pretty much the rest of the album too haha) because that is such an impressive feat. the repeating gun sound impacts between verses are so crunchy i love them.

the line where it's like "he doesn't like what she chooses to do with her body / but he's given over his body as well / you'd think he'd get it more than anyone else"... OUGH...

this song is originally written in a very like... mostly conversational tone, but it's just so so fitting when at the end, OMB just accepts that her friend is going to go to war anyway, and to reflect this mood change, underscores just. drops all the fancy lingo and straight up repeats "I just don't want you to die" as the instrumental deteriorates. OUGH$$$))

track 7: Horror movie soundtrack

for some reason i was not expecting the banjo? guitar? notes that played in the album trailer to actually be a part of one of the songs in the actual album itself, and when that familiar tune started up, i immediately got chills and was like "OH SO WE'RE DOING THIS NOW".

god. the "you won't get away with this" being introduced as a calmer line that is mostly said like a quiet vengeful promise to becoming a big part of the crescendo is so so cool.

track 8: Old money bitch

i think this song was definitely my favorite of the singles when it came out because i could NOT stop listening to it and thinking about it when i wasn't listening to it. it is so so catchy. i didn't know where this sound would be in the album because i didn't have the tracklist memorized and it was such a gutpunch to hear it RIGHT after Horror Movie Soundtrack; we listeners just got to peek at OMB's current state of mind--her fears of losing her friend and her bitterness towards everyone except her friends and maybe "the girls"?--and then we IMMEDIATELY see that mara is bashing her on TOP of that. bonus points if mara happens to be included in "the girls"--I think this song does imply that OMB and mara were originally on good terms before their "first big fight" at a birthday party.

track 9: Geez Louise

i was NOT expecting to hear a rock/metal song from this album and i was smiling so hard when this came on. honestly surprised that i WASN'T expecting this because she makes so many different things but omg.

during my first time listening to the album, i'd remembered there was a song with a 7 minute timestamp in the trailer, but i forgot what song it was and by the time the album was over i was still waiting for the seven minute song. this song really does not feel longer than an average song to me somehow and it still feels only like three minutes every time i come back to listen to it.

i just... MAN. this song first being loud and angry and resentful, then bitter and dismissive with the "we don't have to talk about it", then suddenly transitioning into a feeling of like... an epiphany about identity in henhouse!'s part, is so so cool. the repeating "we don't have to talk about it" suddenly becomes like... an admittance of a sudden unspoken kinship. it's so... augh...

i had never heard about henhouse! before this song and after i was done with the album i immediately went searching and was shocked to only find one song... i am so excited to see more from henhouse! in the future though

track 10: Seventyseven dog years

hold on... is that the scream sample brakence uses in hypochondriac????? (maybe it just sounds similar haha)

the "do do ee oo ee oo oh oh"s in the background fading in and out are so pleasant and the crunchy texture of the drums in this one are so nice and i really like how the song transitions very nicely in and out of busy-ish loud and quiet sections

it's a little hard to hear the vocals during the louder parts but still a very cool experience!

i don't really know what the significance of dogs in this album is yet but i am curious because they've popped up a couple times (this song, the whole "ilovemydog77" password, arg and song thing)... i wonder if it has something to do with "dog" being an anagram for "god"

track 11: Uncanny long arms

ohhhhhh my god oh my god. i already knew this song was gonna be crazy because JANE REMOVER but man. i got interrupted in my first listen during the first verse of this song but i was so bewitched by the vocals that i had the chorus stuck in my head until i kept listening. another AWESOME example of how much vocals have been growing and evolving since the past albums... all the singing in here is so good and this song is just captivating.

the echoey louder part of the chorus ("and i saw that my hands were in a different place than before"/"and i woke up and felt my hands all on the carpet") transitioning into that ADDICTIVE "i can touch my toes/without bending over") is just so so pretty.

AND THEN THAT PART WHERE IN JANE'S SECTION IT DROPS OFF FROM THOSE VOCALS INTO A CRAZY EFFECTS ZONE. when the vocals suddenly break off and stutter and you suddenly honestly feel a little scared at where the song is going and then it fades gently into strings and more echoey vocals. GAH..... this album and its ability to play with my feelings...

(currently talking about this song while taking into account the current theories on genius that it is about mara realizing she has stalked S*nny so much that now she is talking to her, she has realized that she has overstretched and done something wrong (the metaphor being "waking up with long arms"), then deciding to withdraw ("getting an arm reduction").

the inlaws callback actually blew my mind when it showed up. i guess it kinda is a bit of irony in terms of the Lore... originally the lyrics of kinko's DO fit mara because she doesn't necessarily have real struggles (but yearns for S*nny's tough upbringing and struggles), but NOW she is just realizing what she has done by inserting herself into S*nny's issues and realizing she could affect them and have a huge impact for better or worse... ough...

track 12: Good luck final girl

this song feels both really cozy and mournful,,, especially the tune of the chorus and its tone... i can't decide whether "i hope you get what you deserve/that's not how this thing works" is more bitter or hopeful, but i think that's kinda the point because the description of this song says it's about the main characters realizing how they should grow up

considering there are 3 verses for our 3 main characters... i thiiink that the middle verse is most likely S*nny's (it talks about a girl down the block offering to help her, but she rejects the offer and says she doesn't need "people like that" anymore; likely referring to mara, "the girl next door" whose interactions with her were um. yeah.)

i am not sure which in the top and bottom match with old money bitch and mara... i think the last verse is OMB mostly because of the "ive postponed my suicide indefinitely" line, and also because of the sudden tone shift of the song (no more guitar, ambient noises in the background giving the feeling of being around people but feeling alone, the repeating of a final line over and over at the very end until it fades away like in Shoot to kill, kill your darlings)

um yeah. good album. good luck. wall sock er 👍

haha i apparently was not on that corner of tumbls when this was happening if you have the time i would love a tumblr of yore Barack Obama dream story

AHAHA, hi anon!!!! I wasn't on tumblr at the time that they were a Thing either, but I can direct you to a sort-of masterpost and one of the ones I find most iconic! In the meantime, searching up "barack obama tumblr dreams" provides a WEALTH of results, including ones I hadn't seen before!!

Barack dreams compilations:

[ID: A long Tumblr thread that reads:

MindfulWrath: honestly "i'll do whatever you want—then perish. is the single most powerful exchange possible in the english language and it's from some bizarre "hewwo" obama rp

falling-towers: And there was that other post where someone dreamt that Obama said -violence for violence is the rule of beasts' like what is it about Obama that makes people come up with such raw fucking dialogue for him

TwoFingersWhiskey: my mother had a dream where he lived in the forest and she had a cigarette with him and he said "to become god is the loneliest achievement of them all" and put it out and walked into the mist and i've never fucking forgotten that

IHateEverythingComic: I once dreamed that a giant meteor was headed for earth, and the government had set up loudspeakers throughout the cities so Obama could give a final address - I'll never forget how strangely comforting it was when he said "there are places we've never been before. Some of us have never been to the Alps, some of us have never been to Marrakesh. The next life is simply another place we've never been before, and we're all going to go explore it together."

not-regan: I had a dream my family housed the Obamas for a weekend and one morning Obama made us oatmeal for breakfast and, looking at my disappointed face because I don't like oatmeal. he said "regardless of what we taste. if we eat together. we are happy."

tinysaurus-rex: Once I dreamt that Michelle Obama was running a campaign to give homes to all the feral pigeons and her husband came to my house and gave me a pamphlet that just had a picture of a pigeon on it and he looked me in the eyes and said "who would you be without them?" End ID]

One of my faves ever:

[ID: A Tumblr post which reads:

kumagawa: had a dream obama and the guy who plays air guitar at the mall were about to fight and obama said " violence for violence is the rule of beasts " and i woke up because that was the rawest shit i ever heard

raffleupagus: I can't fucking get over this. It has to be my favorite line of dialogue in any work of fiction in 2016

(Quote written in bold and italics) "Violence for violence is the rule of beasts" - Barack Obama. End ID]

Right also here's the post plus my tags for context :)

1, 23, 36! Sorry if 36 sucks i forgot the actual one i meant to ask about and so picked it at random lmao

1. Your first OC ever?

ohh i think i had some random self inserts before but the first ever one that i knew was an oc was mira!! shes changed a bit since then but honestly she went thru one of the smallest changes when it comes to oc changes cuz all i changed was that i made her trans and fat . and a bit goth but she still prefers the same clothes as always aka just. sweatpants id love to show her off but i dont have any finished art of her i just have a half assed ref and a sketch i dont like . also she has purple eyes. but only when i remember that she has purple eyes its just a callback to when she had an insanely weird eye design but i forgor

23. Introduce OC that has changed from your first idea concerning what the character would be like?

yeah majority of them tbh!! but i think ayako went thru the biggest change ! she was my 3rd oc ever (after mira and leo) and she used to be this fangirl yaoi moment random xd hot choccy white girl with like long straight hair and absolutely horrendous clothing style i have art of her from 2016 my best friend drew also she used to both ship leo with herself and his boyfriend and canonically wrote fanfiction about them (theyre all friends) and now shes. more chill glitter & 80s obsessed black girl with an afro. bc i wanted to have an oc with super curly hair but was like well i cant keep her white so i made her black and adjusted her character a bit so shes more. normal. i mean shes still random xd but a bit normal-er also my mother printed out a MASSIVE version of this art of her i drew in like 2019?? and its on my living room wall. anyway heres ayako also shes canonically a catgirl and always has been . cat ears and a tail . just hanging out at a mall also now her eyebrows are just a dot. and the white streak is there bc thats what she had in her hair in her first design ever. also both of these arts are olddd i need to draw my ocs more . also recently i changed up her name cuz she was ayako sulika hitomi which i dont even remember why. but now bc i woerked on her backstory and stuff and officially made her part japanese and now her name is nadia ayako kimura which i think is much prettier.

36. Do you have OC pairs where the other part belongs to someone else (siblings, lovers, friends etc)?

yeah!! all the human(oid) ocs are friends/know each other but theres some more specific relationships like . mira and leo are siblings (both are trans which is bc i made mira trans and was like. wouldnt it be funny if they were both trans), mira and ayako are childhood besties. william ceres and truce are in a relationship. ayako and pixie are besties. mira and zaria are girlfriends . leo and ginger (my best friend oc) have been boyfriends more or less forever. cassie and leo jam together cuz they both play the guitar . also when it comes to non human ocs jen and ash are girlfriends<33 oh also!!!! i have a polish metal band ocs and theyre all in a band together

oc asks lets goo

どうもありがとう ！¡Que tengas un gran resto de tu día o noche!

こんにちは! 私は元気です. you are so freaking cool. plus, we’re both dancers?? so cool! sorry for getting to you a little later then usual, my dance recital is this weekend, so it’s been very hectic. though a don’t remember sending you a matchup? that is, unless you haven’t gotten to mine yet, which is completely fine; please take your time. nevertheless, to your matchup!

warnings: Unhealthy coping mechanisms (Vaping), Discussion of mental disorders (ADHD, Autism, BPD.), Arachnophobia

your Hazbin Hotel matchup is.. Charlie Morningstar !!

• I think you would get along best with Charlie!

• While I do headcanon her with ADHD, She’s very patient in her own sort of way. She’ll find ways to distract herself or find things to do in order to wait for things to happen; mainly with squishies I imagine. She understands where you’re coming from when you can’t stay focused because of your disorders, but is willing to show you some techniques she’s picked up to help her!

• She’s very quick to rush to your side and help you whenever you need it.

• Charlie doesn’t see anyone as awkward, so even if you feel that way just know she doesn’t see it like that.

• She loves to ramble! You can ramble together!

• She appreciates how observant and attentive you are, as it makes it easier to help patients/guests at the hotel (that is if you wish to help or work there. If anything, I think you’d be great advice!)

• You’d be a big help to her with any issues that plague her. She has so much on her mind; with you making simple solutions means a lot.

• When you have times where you’re scattered, she’s quick to jump to you and calm you down. Be it a nice hug or verbal reassurance.

• She does live in hell of course. I’d imagine vaping is a normal occurrence. On another note, she’s the owner of the Happy Hotel! She’d absolutely help you seek other coping mechanisms if you wish.

• We obviously see how much of a singer and dancer Charlie is, and as I said before I headcanon her as a theater kid!

• That being said she’d love to dance with you. Since she’s a princess she must know how to slow dance as well!

• The first time you used a nickname for her she stared blankly at you. Her heart was melted, even if she didn’t know what it meant. She’d soon learn what your nicknames mean eventually.

• When the hotel is in the hands of other managers, she’d have days to just focus on you. Date days! She’d love to have a day just focused on the two of you hanging out and doing whatever you wish specifically.

• She wears some sort of business goth (I think?), but I think feminine mall goth suits her well (Think like the band Kittie). She’s more on the cutesy and comfortable side of mall goth, but only dresses like this outside to hotel, mainly on date days.

• She indulges in lots of your hobbies by buying gifts that correlate with them! Since she is busy with the hotel and can’t do everything unfortunately.

• Silly headcanon, but she’d literally kicks Angel out for as long as you’re in the room knowing you don’t like spiders, but she’ll fail to acknowledge he barely looks like one aside from his long legs and multitude of arms. Maybe you appreciate it, maybe you don’t. I’ll leave it to you.

• You mean so much to Charlie, and she hopes it’s the same!

What gummies did u take? 👀👀 and how was the trip

the brand is called diamond shruumz i think, my local smoke shop sells them nd ive seen them at cbd/hemp/delta8 9 10 shops around here too and theyre somehow legal in my state bc it has like diff shroom variants nd idek but i doubted them at first tbh.. kinda underestimated it a bit or didnt think itd be that potent loll.. the brand has chocolate bars, gummies(with like 15 gummies per bag i think) and these packs of 2 cones. i tried the cones i just had one cone nd my bf had the other they tasted good and it took like 40-50min for me to feel it. ive never done any shrooms b4 but my bf has and he said it felt pretty similar to real shrooms yk. I read a lot of reddit comments abt it nd most ppl have tried the gummies, not many ppl have tried the chocolate bars but the few comments i saw abt it said they werent that good, and i havent seen any comments on reddit abt the cones but i saw a few reviews on the brand's website and theyre supposed to be more potent than the gummies so we ended up trying those lol. id say go w the gummies or cone depending on how experienced u r with pyschedelics ! gummies maybe r better if udont wanna take the whole thing bc u can take less. Most ppl i saw on reddit say they took the whole bag or like half etc, i think u deff feel it if u take a whole bag but idk i havent tried them yet lol. varied opinions on it and i think the brand is fairly new sooo opinions on it were pretty skeptical online for a few months but i found a big thread abt the brand from a month ago w a lot of ppl weighing in abt them nd most ppl saying they did feel it and it feels similar to shrooms but maybe a step down from it etc. some ppl got more visuals than others or some didnt, etc. and a lot of ppl sayinf the come up was kind of intense or a few ppl got sick LOl so tread lightlyy but i def agree the come up was reallyyy overwhelming and more than i expected, felt really similar to lsd for me with all the physical effects like my body gets really tense and feels wound up nd i got really heavy tbis trip and i got more visuals than my bf who didnt rly get any. mine were like subtle but still there like my phone looked crazy and like things in the room slightly pulsing nd ykyk but nothing super crazy but still there. idk if body weigyt nd stuff affects it but i tend to get more easily affected from psychedelics than my bf lol but yeah we both felt like really wound up nd my bf said his body felt like overwhelmed and kind of anxious even tho he wasnt anxious, same for me.. but it was still fun just didnt expect the come up to be that intense nd i watched an anime w my bf and then we watched adventure time which is fun but the really silly crazy episodes w a lot of action nd random shit felt really visually and like audibly overwhelming for me LOL.. then played guitar nd listened to mhsic nd sang songs together tho i did have a cliche emotional moment on shrooms and like started crying nd my bf and i had a like hour long sentimental and serious conversation which was nice Oh and i also get really giggly and laugh a lot on psychedelics same when im on acid its sillyyy and my body gets rly hot and sweaty.. and its hard for me to eat i hav like no appetite lol.. but i think i peaked during this time when i was crying nd just having a rly emotional moment Lol and then after talking for a while my bf and i both said the like tense physical feeling we had during the come up kind of disappeared for us nd i felt way more relaxed and everything.. but yeah the trip lasted like maybe 4 hrs for me it wore off kinda quick at the end 🙉overall good experience but the physicsl effects were really strong nd overwhelming at first so id keep that in mindd esp if u havent done psychedelics b4 and its always nice to b w someone too! i literally did not thknk these edibles wld b that potent or affect me that much lmaoo its kind of crazy theyre legal somehow😭

omg if u have any platonic zouxie hcs id love to hear em!!!

Rubbing my hands together EVILLY

A lot of these are ideas I haven’t yet fleshed out entirely BUT I really wanted an opportunity to talk about them anyways so thank u for this

-Douxie and Zoe are soulbound to each other basically for eternity. The spell that allows them to live as long as they have is called a death ward, and it requires two people to cast! Im not sure the extent to which they’re bound, like if there are any connections or if the original casting was the only time they technically needed to be together, but the idea of them possibly sharing injuries could be kind of funny? Or sad, depending on the context!

-Zoe during Wizards, chilling at Hextech until suddenly she feels like she just got knocked around by a crazy powerful sorceress a dozen times: oh god what the fuck is he doing

-I’ve been toying with the idea of them Not Getting Along when they first met and after they casted the death ward. Zoe grew up hardcore repressing her wizard abilities and was Very off put by any magic, but one day Douxie seeks her out because he’s in search of that second half, and she is just. Not happy. And I don’t think they ever did the death ward spell intentionally or with either of their total consent. Currently, my thought process is that they get into a very dangerous fight against someone or SOMETHING that leaves Zoe inches from death, and the death ward is one of the only things that will keep her from fucking Dying and Douxie gets her to do it to keep her alive. However, she’s! Not very happy with the idea of living forever and being soul bonded to some Fucking Guy. And the tension that it causes between them is a Lot and goes on for quite a few years.

-the death ward shows up as those matching skull ‘tatoos’ I drew them with btw. Besties with the matching symbols of defying mortality

-of course, they manage to smooth things out yada yada, whether it takes a few months or several decades is up for debate.

-Zoe is half the reason Douxie went from the moppet with the man bun persona to the guy he is well! Once they started being around each other more often, she loved to push him around and (affectionately) push him out of his comfort zone a lot <3

-this does come back to bite her in the ass! Because newfound confidence Douxie will never pass up the opportunity to annoy the Shit out of her! His favorite thing is picking her up and moving her when he wants to get to something but she’s in his way.

-I absolutely think they Tried dating before, maybe a few times in the past several hundred years! But they both sort of come to the conclusion that they appreciate each other on a casual level more than anything, and the commitment to each other just isn’t something they feel comfortable with? It’s something neither of them can explain directly, and sounds convoluted to anyone who asks, but to each other they understand where they’re at and that’s what matters! it’s also one of the things that helps Douxie realize he’s probably somewhere on the aroace spectrum (even if he won’t use that specific vocabulary for his identity for another couple centuries)

-they are Ash Dispersal Pattern! Currently it’s just Douxie on guitar and Zoe on vocals, and their “band” is more just a fun experimental thing more than anything. Douxie absolutely ropes Claire into playing bass for them at Least casually! (Also I’ve been thinking abt Douxie teaching toby drums bc they should be friends)

AND here’s some old messy doodles I did of 12th century Douxie and Zoe ! They’re real messy but I figured this would be the best place to drop them ahee

First FIRST meeting and she wants None of his shit

Girl mad

So im going through shakiras discography and i just found a bunch of interesting things, like the time she covered exactly three (3) songs to portuguese. Estou Aqui (Estoy Aqui). Um Pouco De Amor (Un Poco de Amor). Pés Descalços (Pies Descalzos, Sueños Blancos) We know that Shakira is not a stranger to translating her songs to other languages, but its curious that she put that much effort to rerecording three of her songs to appeal to brazil but never came back to it. Heres one i was able to find online.

I believe it was a part of a special edition of pies descalsos cuz it also came packaged with two remixes of her songs, namely estoy aqui, making it three versions of the same song in this alleged album. The thing is that this one is in spanish so probably it wasnt part of that collection, but the vibe of the song kinda makes me think that it was, because if i remember correctly, brazil was huge into this kind of eurobeat remix at the time. The other one, "Donde Estas Corazon (Remix Single)" has similar vibes so im confident on why they could have been packaged together with the rest of the album.

The other thing that kinda blew my socks off was a cover she did of Ciega, Sordomuda as a mariachi song, and past the pastige of the usual trap of latin beats that the us fell to in the late late 90s and early 00s, a mariachi song is basically old mexican folk, its more than just a guitar and some horns. Im kinda impressed that she actually managed to make a cover that, past some sloppy execution in genre translation, if someone told me it was an old ballad from the times of the mexican revolution, id believe you.

im genuinly surprised that this is the most accurate mariachi song from a colombian woman ive heard in my life. I seriously think that this could be played in september parties when people bring out the traditional mexican stuff. The track perse was found in a laundry service special edition with bonus tracks, i think the one im listening to is german for some reason??? Researching it a bit i managed to find she performed this at a live event for MTV allegedly but other than that the information is shaky.

As someone who always lover her music and kinda formed some of my musical brain growing up, its kinda wild finding silly stuff like this

nsfw is fine for me, it can be sfw if you want

not comfy w/ sharing my real name on here so lets just go with Lycoris

i am a computer science student in college

im 5'8, white, i have blue/gray eyes, and dark red dyed hair in a bob with bangs

i am the parental friend who will ask questions, talk to people, keep us out of trouble, volunteer for things etc UNTIL i fimd someone who i trust enough to do that for me. then its chaos. i have adhd if that helps anything lol

enfp

i play genshin, persona 5, and minecraft; i play the guitar and sometimes write music (also sing and play a couple other instruments); i like reading literature: i watch anime; i like solving puzzles and working with technology; i occasionally upload on youtube or stream on twitch (not sharing it to tumblr lol) (im also a christian but im here on a tumblr smut acc)

im a very picky eater, i swear im like a child, i dont try anything i dont already like. i am a very assertive and opinionated person so if i dont like something You Will Know. but at the same time i can keep it back to be polite (except for food im sorry i will live off of ramen until i die)

any of the adult males, fuckin surprise me

nope nothing else to add <3

lycoris x ranpo

✧ surpriseee your silly little man is The ranpo edogawa himself

✧ you guys work so well bc you both compliment and counteract each other. you're very similar in some ways but complete opposites in others, which is. essential for relationships

✧ ranpo is a (loveable) dumbass and could definitely use your parental friend abilities, mostly when it comes to like changing lightbulbs, taking the train, doing the fucking laundry. he's so smart but so stupid pls be patient with him

✧ BUT i think he very much could step up and be that person you could trust wholeheartedly. you could let your chaos show with him he could handle it. he might match it with his own crazy tho bfdakljfk

✧ i would be SCARED to see your guys' kitchen dkfjkadsljf like oh my god. you both are the worlds pickiest eaters, and ranpo's obsession with snacks and sweets...... you would need an entire pantry shelf dedicated to just ramen and another one just for all of his candy. id get a fucking cavity just from entering the room

✧ you're slightly taller than him (2 inches) but he absolutely refuses to admit this. when he stands next to you he'll stand a bit on his tippie toes and everyone just pretends its not happening LMAO poor ranpo </3

✧ you hardcore bond over your love for puzzles and reading and problem solving. this is likely how the two of you ended up meeting and/or interacting for the first time, and is something relatively integral to your relationship. its something that both calms you down and can start fights fkjdalj;f like if you solved a poe novel first he wouldn't speak to you for like 3 days

✧ you are both . very opinionated and this can be good and bad

✧ bad in that you'd have to be very conscious about the fact that you inevitably will butt heads, and knowing the best ways for the two of you to cool off either together or individually.

✧ good because if you guys share a really strong opinion about a certain tv show or hatred for a person that is. talking material for DAYS you could both get hyperfixated on the same things and everyone at the agency is like oh jesus fucking christ. not them again

✧ you'll def find yourselves in arguments about the silliest things which isn't necessarily a bad thing sdlkjfdsjk like one morning you're bickering because ranpo was like NO YOU DEFINITELY HAVE MORE MARSHMALLOWS IN YOUR LUCKY CHARMS THAN I DO and you're like WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING A BOUT

✧ i promise i genuinely think you guys would work well together i really do fklajfkdj

✧ i dont think he really understands video games at all, like thats not his thing. but he def will sit there absolutely mesmerized as you stream.

✧ i know cockwarming where the guy is the one playing the games but why cant it be the other way around. u ride him as you play video games. why not. i said so

✧ he'd LOVE listening to you play music

✧ anyway. power couple. the two of you would drive everyone at the agency insane with your antics but they'd all love you too :)

Pat fell first

I’ve been rewatching certain parts of Bad Buddy and thinking about when P’Aof said that Pat and Pran probably fell for each other around the same time, but Pran acknowledged his feelings first.

But like what if Pat fell first? Throughout his childhood, he was taught to hate the kid next door, but Pat’s perspective and feelings towards Pran probably shifted after he saved Pa. I bet he’s the one who initiated their friendship by using the tin can telephone.

Growing up, Pat always noticed Pran, even through the corner of his eye, like how Pran used to look at him when he was being punished. There must’ve been countless moments when Pat treated Pran differently than he would a friend that made Pran start liking him. But at the time, Pat didn’t think he could ever like a guy, he didn’t know he had that option. So, when there’s a new pretty girl in class, it’s natural for him to like her. 

Even so, there’s always something about Pran that made him do silly things like cutting out his student ID to make Pran a guitar pick. When Pran’s parents transferred him, Pat chased after him with his guitar, and when it’s too late, he kept the guitar. He hid it from his parents, maintained its condition, cleaned it, probably tuned it too. How else would an abandoned guitar look new? You’d think that with Pran out of the picture, he’d try to get together with Ink, bc that’s what kids his age would do. But he didn’t, because when Pran’s away, it was so depressingly lonely for him. 

When Pat met Pran again in college, he promised Pa he wouldn’t hurt him. That’s it. But he didn’t just do that, he always took it further, he always went the extra mile. He gave Pran a clean shirt, his shirt, to make sure he didn’t get in trouble with his mom. He also remembered small things about Pran, like how picky he was with food and his thing with matching chopsticks.

What’s that look, Pat?

Then, despite insisting he had nothing to do with it, Pat continuously tried to get Pran to talk to him after their friends destroyed the bus stop. He also made sure his friends took responsibility for bullying Wai. He scolded them, apologized for them, and manipulated them to help rebuild the bus stop.

Yes, Pat, why are you frustrated for them?

Like the extra boi that he is, he also gave Pran the idea to find sponsors and insisted on going with him to meet the investors. Then, when the company declined their request, Pat jumped in to pitch a new idea that the company approved.

What’s that look, Pat? (2)

Not to mention, he also begged his professor to allow both bands back in the Freshy Music Contest bc he knew how much Pran loved music. He also returned his guitar in pristine condition, patted his head, and did the jaw thing.

Yes, this very questionable cute jaw thing. Also look at how Pran is staring at his universe, his eyes literally sparkle.

Oh also, can’t leave this one out.

What’s that look, Pat? (3)

After helping Pran secure some funding, he role played in the middle of the night to help Pran design the bus stop. He stayed up with him and encouraged him too, telling him everyone’ll like the bus stop bc he likes them.

Of course he’s clingy too. I love how Pat knew exactly where Pran would be if he’s not in his dorm. If he didn’t, I can also imagine him walking around campus until he finally found him.

Yes, Pat, what the hell are you looking at?

When Pat’s dad badmouthed Pran’s family, he tried to comfort him. He texted and called multiple times, before finally finding him in an empty dorm room. Then, he offered to move instead out of debt. But after a tickling battle, he considered them even and decided not to move. So, I don’t think Pat’s been giving Pran the special treatment bc he felt indebted to him, but rather bc he just felt like it.

What’s that look, Pat? (4)

Then, we arrive to episode 5, when he finally realize he’s jealous of Wai and he’s been in love with Pran all his life. I think the fifth episode is just Pat realizing that his sadness, guilt, and loneliness actually meant something. That these feelings he’s been feeling for Pran actually mean something. 

I love that. I love Bad Buddy. 

Hi! Id like to request a bayverse tmnt matchup!

Here some stuff about me ┗(ᐖ )┓

I'm 19, INTP-T, an Aries, I have autism(very high functioning) and ADHD, aswell as mild anger issues. I'm kinda tall- 5'10. Bisexual and genderfluid, use any pronouns. I basically have an on-off switch for my emotions and I'm also the dad friend. I have a few piercings, lobes, Helix, septum, tongue, and snakebites. I work as a tattoo artist and piercer. did my piercings myself- (yeyy unlimited free tattoos and piercings for friends) I also play the Electric guitar and have a gothic grunge style. I enjoy working out, drawing, cooking, and comic books. My favorite shows are Shameless, Star-treck, BoJack horseman, and big mouth. My favorite movie genre is Action/Adventure! My fav thing about me is probably my tattoos. I have a semicolon one on my wrist, a deathmoth neck tat which connects to a lunar back tattoo, and I also have a star underbreast tattoo!

That's all! Thank you :)))

Sorry it took me so long to get to your request, hoping now that Christmas is over I’ll be able to pump some stuff out till new years.

I feel like this is one of the easier matchups I’ve received, but still I was really stuck between 2 of them but in the end I thought the over all best pick was.....

Michelangelo!

You both seem the perfect balance. Sun and moon, sweet and salty, warm and cold, well you get the picture. While you tend to be more down to earth and responsible Mike isn’t, but he allows you to let go and take a moment to smell the flowers. When Michelangelo has a hard day, emotions wise, you’re able to step in without being affected and helping him calm down.

Although you may seem opposites in some cases there are a lot of similarities too. You both share the same passions and interests and that is what allows that bond to connect and grow. Your affinity for the arts both on paper and in the pot makes for perfect dates and allowing a lot of new opportunities for both of you. Not to mention the amount of tv shows you’d binge together. 

In other words, it’s a match made in heaven! Enjoy!
