Do you have any song writing tips for complete beginners looking to give songwriting a try?
I've been absolutely mesmerized by what you made about Ms. Power, and it's inspired me to wanna try and write a song myself (I'm a complete newb, so it'll just be for the fun of it, but there's a Misunderstood TM character I wanna write a song for haha).
I hope you have a great day, and feel free to ignore/delete this, bcs I know such broad questions can bog the ask box down lol /gen lh
Hi friend!
First of all I'm so glad you like Rise Of The Snake :) it was one of my favorites to write and record for Deadly albeit challenging!
I've been writing songs my whole life so I might not have very good specific tips, but here are some things I found helpful to improve my craft and advice I've gotten from friends ^^
Generally for your first-ever song, you probably don't want to take it too seriously. Trying to lay down professional lyrics on your first shot will most likely end up with you staring at a blank page, so write down whatever comes to mind. You can fine tune it later!!
Listen to some of your favorite artists and try to pick apart their songwriting techniques. This will also help a ton in developing your style.
Accept that not all of your stuff is going to be amazing and that does NOT make you any less of an artist. For every good song I write there's probably a dozen crap ones that don't make the cut.
Additionally, save your old songs. You can use them as inspiration later as you improve.
Listen to podcasts, read articles etc. featuring lyricists where they really break down what inspires them to write.
Look for inspiration everywhere, you never know where it may strike.
Probably my best advice is that there isn't a formula for songwriting, and there's no real "right" way to do it. Write what flows out of you and then make it pretty. Lol.
I hope this helps!

Oh my god, what if MC has issues regarding V-day because they and Luci used to do something really sappy and cute for it? So now seeing all the happy couples just makes them really upset/angry?
Lucien
You sigh, tossing your bag on the counter. Theo is still in class until this evening, so you have until then to stew. It’s stupid to hate Valentine’s Day so much, but you can’t help it. It a reminder of everything you once had, the life you lived before it all went to shit.
The last time you spent this day with anyone was Lucien. Lucien, who you had made homemade pizzas with and sat out on the balcony, watching the stars with only your shared body heat to keep you warm.
After you became Unchosen, after Lucien had left you, maybe you became a bit jaded toward the holiday. You once looked forward to it with sappy naïveté, and now you dreaded the memories it would dredge up.
Even now, with you and Lucien almost fully made up, you couldn’t stand seeing all the happy couples and hearts and love bullshit everywhere. It just…hurt. It hurt, and that made you angry.
Leaning on the counter, you contemplate ordering take out and just going straight to bed when there’s a knock on your door. It’s soft, hesitant, almost like the person on the other side kind of hopes you won’t come to the door.
You do, though. You pull it open and there stands the object of both your ire and yearning.
“Hey,” He says, sheepish, his wings twitching with his anxiety, “I wasn’t sure if I should come over…”
“You can come over whenever,” You say, your voice gentle despite your foul mood for the day.
After everything the both of you have been through, you don’t have it in yourself to cruel to him. Not even today, when the wound in your heart is raw and bleeding. You both have been hurt far too much, by one another and Lucien’s parents and far too many others to list.
You don’t want him to hurt anymore, not after you’ve seen the disastrous results. Besides, hurting him would only wound you more in the end. You learned that lesson a long time ago.
“I just…” Lucien shifts on his feet, pulling something out of his bag, “I know this is all still new, and I wasn’t sure if it would even be appreciated, but…here.”
It’s a canvas, you realize. He flips it over as he hands it to you, revealing a portrait of yourself done in watercolor. You’re smiling, a light flush of pink highlighting your cheeks, a golden yellow wash surrounding you as if he’d pictured you bathed in sunlight.
You take the painting with trembling hands, your wide eyes finding his.
“It’s not a lot,” He say softly, “But I…it’s my favorite painting I’ve done in a long time.”
It is a lot, though. It’s everything. You take a step inside to set the painting down gently on the counter before turning back to him. You take his hand and lead him inside, enthralled with the way he looks at you like you hung the stars in tonight’s sky.
“We can order pizza,” You suggest, closing the door behind him, “Watch a movie. I’ll probably fall asleep.”
“I don’t care if you use me as a pillow,” He says softly.
Four Valentine’s Days apart, wasted, and you probably should be angry about it. You were just moments ago. As you sit beside him on the couch, his curls tickling your neck as he rests his head atop yours, you find it hard to hold on to that anger. Perhaps you’d be happier if you let it go.
Dark brown eyes glance down at you, warm and utterly taken, and you decide that you’ll move on. For yourself, and for Lucien. It’s what the both of you deserve after so many years of suffering.
Lucia
You sigh, tossing your bag on the counter. Theo is still in class until this evening, so you have until then to stew. It's stupid to hate Valentine's Day so much, but you can't help it. It a reminder of everything you once had, the life you lived before it all went to shit.

narnia au where their parents were with them at the train station during the beginning of Prince Caspian. To say goodbye to them. Their parents being a little bit clingy(ptsd and overprotectiveness) wanted to both see them off on the train. The parents accidentally end up in Narnia with them. Shenanigans abound. Just imagine these two proper British parents having to deal with the fact that a magical talking lion made their children Kings and Queens, and they were for 15 years in Narnia, Narnia in general, watching their children fight and command armies, Caspian, and the fact that their kids are not really children anymore. Also Mrs and Mr Pevensies having to rely on their children in this unfamiliar place.
ooh yes, there is definitely untapped potential in Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie ending up in Narnia. They would struggle so much with everything. Why are there talking animals and trees and water. Why won't our children listen to us. Who gave our tiny daughter a dagger. Why are her siblings acting like Lucy having a dagger is fine.
Also, if they tag along from the start of PC, they would quickly meet Trumpkin, and I'm laughing so hard at the thought. Because he's also a pretty skeptical person, but they'd have different ideas of what counts as reasonable.
Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie: a real dwarf? How is he here? How did we get here?
Lucy: oh, Aslan probably summoned us.
Trumpkin: the magical king lion? don't be ridiculous. everyone knows there haven't been talking lions in Narnia in centuries
Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie: but other animals talking is normal
Trumpkin: obviously
Also the battle at the end? There are very serious thoughts to be had about the parents seeing their children all grown up, and realizing how capable they are (and mourning a little at how much responsibility they've obviously had to shoulder so young. they sent their children to the countryside to give them as much childhood as they could, and instead war found them. war and greater burdens than they would have had back home), but I keep getting distracted trying to decide which would be funnier, the book or the movie version.
Movie:
Mr. and Mrs. P: Lucy's not riding into battle! None of you should, but especially her!
Peter: don't be ridiculous
Peter: she's riding alone into the forest to find a lion
Or there's the book version of events, where Peter, Edmund, and Caspian fight in the battle while Susan and Lucy are off riding around on a lion, and literal Bacchus shows up with Silenus and a bunch of maenads and they conjure grape vines and wine everywhere.
(askfjdl and then Edmund eats dirt. The dryads are eating dirt at the victory feast and Edmund eats some because it looks like chocolate and imagine his parents. They've just started accepting their children actually are grown up and capable and royalty--and then their youngest son eats dirt.)
Also, maybe Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie look at Caspian and go "oh, another child carrying way too much responsibility. oh, you're an orphan and your uncle tried to kill you? okay, we have five children now"
#asks#darkcrowprincess#the chronicles of narnia#prince caspian#helen pevensie#richard pevensie#peter pevensie#susan pevensie#edmund pevensie#lucy pevensie#trumpkin (narnia)#caspian the tenth#the pevensies#pevensie parents in narnia#nova actually answers asks

Behold! A crack fic idea!
Extra point if each time one of the Desmonds does something that goes against the timeline we get a flashforeward to the present day, and it's a different kind of post-apocalypse each time.
Extra extra points if the post-apocalypses get increasingly absurd and ridiculous as the story goes on.
Okay, so for this one, we have:
Clay!Desmond
Layla!Desmond
Minevra!Desmond
The Reader
which means I can do this:
How the Desmonds met cat!Desmond:
I kinda like the idea that we never learn who sent cat!Desmond into the past. Hell, we never learn he’s actually a Desmond as well. He just keeps following them and likes to use his claws to get a ‘piggyback ride’. XD
A visual representation of how the Desmonds are tackling every major events of their ancestors:
(not part of the visualization: the dude in charge of the Templars in Cyprus because the Desmonds actually forgot about him and thought he was just one of the mooks)
And then we have Elijah who tries to act all serious and kinda like a dick (it's the Aita genes) but can't help but lean into any kindness and gentleness the Desmonds show him.
The poor modern gang:
(It would be funny if they didn't realize that there are multiple Desmond running around at first so they assume they only have one Desmond to worry about)
Rebecca updating her notes every few weeks:
The modern day gang's relationship with the Desmonds (that the Desmonds are unaware of)
Also... this was the first ridiculous 'apocalypse' I thought of XD
What the structure of the idea would probably be:
#we didn't even talk about how they're changing the past#but i'm thinking like they're time hopping XD#assassin's creed#ask and answer#desmond miles#elijah miles#lucy stillman#rebecca crane#shaun hastings#daniel cross#teecup writes/has a plot#fic idea: assassin's creed

In the Wimbledon AU, do Lucy and Greg have a long engagement?
I imagine they keep postponing their marriage due to their Careers and children.
I can see Violet making a comment every new year wondering aloud, into her punch, if this year would be the year.
I can see Gregory saying, "we'll get married, when Eloise gets married" knowing his sister never plans to marry.
Then Eloise up and elopes...
Now the pressure is on.
I actually don’t think they do have a long engagement. I think one day Violet asks them about when they’re planning their wedding for and Gregory just shrugs.
“We got married a couple of weeks ago.”
Everyone in the room froze as Violet gaped at her son, “What?!”
“Yeah we just sort of thought it would be easier if we just did it at the registry office. We’ve basically been married for a long time. We have two kids together, what do we need a big party for?”
“And you didn’t tell any of us.”
Gregory shrugged, balancing his tiny son in his arms. “Kate was there.”
Every eye in the room spun towards Anthony’s wife, who was staring at the ceiling, Neddy on her lap. “Okay, I feel like I’m going to cop a lot of heat for this and I feel like he’s missing an important point which is: I was told we were having brunch. I was lured there. It was a crime, basically. By the time I realised it was too late.”
“And you weren’t a bit suspicious when the meeting place was a registry office?” Anthony asked, raising his eyebrow.
“They picked me up.” she said dryly, “All I wanted was a breakfast sandwich.”
“You’re a millionaire what do you want a free breakfast for?”
“Anthony,” Kate snapped, “I’m pregnant with your child is this the path you want to take?! I feel like we’re getting away from the point which is that Greggy and Lucy are married.”
“And you want a free sandwich.”
“Anthony!”

Do you truly think they will get back together?
I really do, anon! With some other couples my answer wouldn’t be so confident, but Tim and Lucy have proven before that they have what it takes to make it through this.
Let’s start with Tim. Yes, he’s in a really bad place right now. But he’s shown us (and Lucy) over and over again that he’s able and willing to change. Every single time she’s called him out on his behavior, he has eventually accepted responsibility for it, learned from it, and changed it. Already, in the aftermath of this breakup, he’s accepted that he needs help. I fully anticipate that he will reach the point of being able to understand and accept what he’s done and take responsibility for it as well and work to make sure it doesn't happen again.
He’s also earned Lucy’s trust before. At the beginning she didn’t trust him at all - justifiably, given how volatile he was. But as he healed, he became someone she could trust on the job. And eventually outside of the job. She’s seen him change. She knows he’s capable of it. And I think once they’re communicating better and she understands what triggered him to walk away from her, she'll also be able to see that he's putting in the work to ensure he doesn't stay in this place where he might make the same decision again. With that understanding and seeing the changes, she'll be able to begin rebuilding trust.
And let’s not forget (something @timandlucy pointed out to me earlier) that Tim forgave Isabel. She disappeared, stole from him, lied, and cheated, yet Tim was willing to forgive her. He knows what it's like to be in that position. And again, I think once he’s in a better place, he’s going to understand that Lucy now has to do what he once did and that it’s not going to be easy.
Along those lines, let's talk about Lucy. From day one, it's been made clear that empathy is a core piece of who she is. She understands that people make bad decisions when they're in a bad place, but that this doesn't define who they are as a person. She’s understands why people do the things they do. She believes people can change, and she believes in second chances.
And even though right now she doesn't fully understand how deep Tim's issues run, she still knows him. She knows he struggles with his feelings and she knows he carries trauma that he hasn't dealt with. She knows he sometimes makes irrational decisions guided by his heightened emotions. She knows he struggles to ask for help.
But she also knows his heart. She knows he cares deeply. She knows he's willing to do anything for the people he loves (even if it's not actually the right thing to do). Tim is so scared of her finding out what he did and who he is - but the thing he can't see is that she already knows who he is. He says he can't give her what she needs, but again, she knows that's not true. Maybe right now he can't, but he is capable of it and she knows that, too. He just needs help getting to that place.
Is winning her trust back going to be easy? Absolutely not. And I don't want it to be. Lucy has every right to be hurt and angry and protective of her heart. She has every right to set boundaries and demand an adult conversation with him. You can be empathetic without being a pushover.
It's not going to be an easy journey and it's not going to be a quick one. It's gonna take a lot of communication and vulnerability and emotional maturity. But I really truly believe that once they can overcome these issues, they're going to be so much stronger.
(Sorry, that may have been a much longer answer than you were looking for. Long story short, yes. I do.)

Crazy idea, and absolutely no pressure, but:
Do you think we could play a game where your followers write some brief lyrics and you randomly pick a few to sing?
This sounds super fun! I don't know if anybody would do it, but if you want to, send them!! :D

is luci hurt by a certain mc more? like does it hurt them more when mc is (justifiably) mean to them or when mc just straight up flees the sight of them etc etc
Luci actually prefers when MC is mean to them because they feel like they deserve it.
When MC is kind or understanding, it makes them deeply uncomfortable and kind of upset on some level. Not an angry upset, keep in mind, more of an anguished upset.
However, MC fleeing at the sight of them is a unique type of pain for Luci. They understand it, of course, and don’t blame MC at all. Still, it hurts them more than they can express.

I hope that in this fandom canon material will come your way that will disappoint you about Levi that will cause you to distance yourself from him. So that you can no longer feel comfortable to ship with him. Because the fact that you're still happily enjoying him means that you haven't encountered bitter truths about him.
Look… I just have to say that I don't know who your dealer is, but dude, that person is giving you very high-quality stuff because you're definitely high on something strong. Give a pat on the back to that dealer because they are selling you some good stuff, huh?
I'm not going to say anything else because I didn't even UNDERSTAND what you're implying. Honestly, I've met crazy conspiracy theorists on public transport preaching about the apocalypse who made more sense than this ask. So, ehm… cut down on the dose or take your medication in the morning, okay?
Have a nice day.

fankids are funny. anyway her name is Present
#yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery today is a gift- thats why its called the Present !#i think she talks out of her ass about psychology and claims to know what shes talking about bc her dads a therapist#lucy from charlie brown style 'psychiatric help for a quarter' stand type stuff#there was a convo during majestic kerfuffle about there not being any cpuk fankids and. well. i have not forgotten about it#so take this green dog i made her up and she was fun to draw#the core of fankids' appeal to me is#1) putting two characters designs together to make a brand new guy#2) speculating what your blorbos would be like as parents and what sort of little person they'd raise#and while 1 was fun enough for her#we havent really seen either of them interact with kids enough (iirc) for me to have much to work with for 2 sadly#i have no idea what fighter she'd be don't ask i dont have an answer
