it's not a march. it doesn't have military time. you can't set an army to it. it's wheezing and wandering, strings stretching and groaning, now; it's a song that bends and nearly breaks under its own weight while bringing you into it. this is not a theme that bashes down your door. it knocks politely and asks if you are home in a whisper. it is not polished steel and gleaming mirror shines, it is grit and dust and grime

tbh i feel as if it gets the concept, some grain at the core, across quickly

Darth Vader has the imperial march. he has a Theme with Pomp and Circumstance and a full orchestra playing it.

so what makes my Vader different?

he gets his orchestra taken away

this is his song now https://soundcloud.com/annbjorg-lien/masques

humble fiddles echoing up into empty space

there ain't no room for a lordling now, down here where all the peasants are kept. he still doesn't know his place, though.

he still looks up.

i did just get called out by a passing observation of how fanfic titles go

however i will say that Masquerade aka the one that is my Precious Baby with Too Much Darth Vader In It is taken from a song directly

but since the song is instrumental i feel as if i'm being sneaky

i should probably go to bed before i start rambling about my own fanfic but it may be too late for that

sometimes i feel bad about making my viera alt be a ~famous murderess~ who actually gained some notoriety in garlean territory

but rp is all about making room on the dance floor for others

a person at her prime ready to kill does not have much room. but a washed-up person who used to be fierce but is now just falling apart, who might have been built up to be folk hero but is just here and exhausted and bleeding and threadbare? THAT'S much more tasty shit

the duality of defining characters

above is the link to several pages of flowery words in enigmatic style that are designed to make the reader feel emotions

and below is a description of the same character that i did in mspaint and entitled "davalia.gif"

repost but i'm still quite proud of this even though i've gotten now to the point where my obvious errors are running up and smacking me in the face but i'm too spoonless to go edit

anyway

Harp's Bullshit reaches the Stabby Angry Bunny Alt

@darksouls y'all the bots are done hornt again

#spoonielife moods include SOMETHING JUST POPPED LOUDLY AND I'M GONNA NEED A MINUTE TO TELL YOU IF THAT WAS A GOOD OR BAD POP

ok here's a chiptune remix of shadowbringers music that has no right to go as hard as it does but it totally does https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQXq8-QenD4 #ffxiv

(sidon of course patiently listens and comes away with the distinct impression of HOLY SHIT ZELDA YOU'RE A FUCKING BADASS YOU JUST GO AROUND BLEEDING EVERY SO OFTEN WHAT THE FUCK??? HYLIANS ARE **HARDCORE**!!!!)

(and zelda's like "god i thought him asking if i was really having a good time during sex because i wasn't dropping any roe was bad")

(in the distance, link laughs quietly to himself)

i feel like this fic is just going to get weird if/when i eventually write it simply because i cannot resist an opportunity to stop and go "so sidon's kind of the odd one out, being the lone fish-man among the closer-human-analogues, huh"

which is my way of saying that zelda is going to try to head off a joke at one point only to realize she is hoisted by her own petard of "shit now i need to explain menstruation to a confused shark boyfriend"

i DEFINITELY reverse-engineered a subgenre of yaoi mpreg on accident there. one of y'all are gonna come along and tell me at any moment now "yeah penis jousting to see who ends up taking the biological burden of being pregnant is why the whole a/b/o thing, like, exists. you didn't know that?" and i will have to just go Oh Dear about it

the shark boyfriend has spent 100 years trying to doggedly be a good prince who wears a cravat and knows how proper decorum and then he hooks up with mr. link "battle gremlin" hyrule and ms. princess "have just spent 100 years locked in psychic battle with the greatest force of evil, could use a cuppa tea honestly" zelda. it's just a fish man trying to hold on to his dignity while dating two disasters shaped like hylians
