1. We basically invented this place, that's why it's standing room only.

2. Don't let me mean nothing or just pass away /
Just give me tomorrow forever today

3. Let's dance to joy divisions and celebrate the irony

Finally hits this like a year late, 2? 3? Idfk

[He felt, really, like he ought not to be here. Large parties made him nervous, between the suicidal norms and the alcohol and a world of mishaps he'd seen in his life. Life was difficult when you looked as young and small as Qing-yuan, and it wasn't helped by any amount of etiquette.

So far, he'd avoided running into anyone. So far, the ebb and flow of the place had settled away from his little corner of relaxation. Close enough to grab a drink from the bar but far enough that his red hair and long, fitted white dress didn't give him away too immediately, he'd settled to just watch.

And watch he did... Until thirst caught up with him. Dread seeping into his senses, Qing-yuan wove his way toward the punch bowls and the like, shifting to avoid bodies. A few more steps and--

And it's not to be. He's not a heavy person, and in stumbling back he gave a soft noise and bowed deeply, apologetically.]

A-ah, I'm terribly sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going...

[His voice was soft and feminine as well, painting a picture of mildness and manners. Cute, people tended to call him, whether for the soft, pretty dresses or his usual pigtails or his size. He paid it no mind anyway, staring up with an embarrassed, apologetic expression.]

i wasn't 100% sure what to do with pronouns in tight 3rd but let me know if this doesn't work

[placeheld]

[ It's been a good night, so far. This is Artemis' second or third party, though he couldn't actually tell you anything about the one in the middle. If it existed. He remembers being in someone else's limo at some point, and it had been fun, but when that happened he couldn't say.

He thinks about that with a small frown as he's climbing out of the pool and making his way over to the drinks table. He's tall and confident enough that most of the crowd parts in front of him, but someone doesn't move. At least whoever it is, they're small enough that he barely feels it. ]

Whoa!

[ And then she's apologizing to him, which is the last thing he wants, especially because - yeah, whoa, cute. Really cute. He ignores the apology entirely. ]

Hey, it's fine - are you alright?

Yaoyorozu Momo | My Hero Academia

[recommendations]

1. Don't be so hard on yourself, no
   Learn to forgive, learn to let go
   Everyone trips, everyone falls
   So don't be so hard on yourself, no
   
   
2. We are made up of our mistakes
   We are falling but not alone
   We will take the best parts of ourselves
   And make them gold
   
   
3. And now I'm sitting here alone and scared
   Hearing every word, the words I should have said
   Now is this real or is it in my head?
   I don't know

3; been thinkin on this all day, lmk if it works or not 💕

[eardrums]

[Arguments between the two of them were rare. Shouting matches between them were even rarer, and a sure sign something was wrong.
Tensions had been running high through the dorm as a huge test looms nearer and nearer; plenty of them were studying just fine, but it was the threat of it being 30% of their grade that made the class's stress levels shoot through the roof.
So maybe it was a little inevitable that something would happen, but for it to be something between Jiro and Yaoyorozu was almost unimaginable.
And yet, after storming out to spend the afternoon clearing her head, Jiro can't even remember what it was about...

After a while of walking about by herself, all she could really think about was how much Momo must be worrying - she's the type to dwell over that sort of thing, and Jiro knows that.
So once she's finally back at the dorm, clutching a little shopping bag in one of her hands, she hesitates for a beat before knocking on Momo's door.]

Yaomomo...?

it's perfect! 💖

[recommendations]

[ She had only been trying to help. Momo knows that schoolwork comes easier for her than it does for most of her classmates, which is why she does her best to help them study and prepare for tests. But it can be frustrating for her, when she tries and tries to explain to them the concepts that the test will cover, and they still don't get it. And, it can be just as frustrating for the people she's trying to tutor, when they still don't get the concepts after hours of trying.

So, perhaps it was inevitable that it would have led to some kind of conflict. But the fact that the conflict occurred between Momo and Jiro of all people... No one could have seen that one coming.

Momo had retreated to her room, not feeling up to continuing the study session for the rest of her classmates after their tempers came to a head, lying curled up on her bed-- partly because it was the single piece of furniture that took of most of the space in her bedroom, but mostly because she just needed to fee some sort of comfort after being so vulnerable, and she would take physical comfort if she couldn't have emotional comfort.

By the time the knock comes to her door, Momo has spent the past several hours running over the confrontation in her head, thinking over the things she had said when she let her frustration get the better of her, and trying to come up with what she could have said that would have ended things more amicably. But hindsight can only do so much, so really she's just stewing in her regret, feeling sad and worried that she irreparably hurt Jiro's feelings.

So when she hears Jiro calling her name, she sits up at once, quickly running her fingers through her hair to try to hide the fact that she's just been lying in bed all afternoon. Cautiously, she slides off her bed and goes to open the door. ]

Y-yes?

[ ooc; Momo ♥ would you like to do something with them? Any of these prompts work, so I can easily choose any and write something up if you're interested. c: Probably a scenario in training... ]

[As someone who was always watching, taking in each detail of the fight and analyzing both sides (though not to the level of Midoriya), Shouto has seen how far Yaoyorozu has come since those early days. Her strength and leadership is rare to see, just in the way she leads that brings her team together. Unfortunately not every fight is a win, but he can say that he's proud of her and her continuous efforts to keep trying.

It's the evening and everyone is too tired to work up much effort to stay up late and socialize, even himself. When he catches Yaoyorozu from the corner of his eye, though, he can't help but to pause and reach out.]

You did good today. There was only so much you all could do.

► Got a figure like a pin-up, got a figure like a doll
Don't care if you think I'm dumb, I don't care at all
Candy bear, sweetie pie, wanna be adored
I'm the girl you'd die for

► But I'll never give up
Never giving up
Giving you all for love
For love

► Pretty girls don't know the things that I know
Walk my way, I'll share the things that she won't

i And I found love where it wasn't supposed to be. Right in front of me.

ii A life without you, I'm not ready to move on. No matter what the distance is I will be with you.

iii Just look at me, give me more tonight. Just give me more of your love now.

So play it one more time
That symphony in rhyme
Let those old familiar feelin's start to show
Sing my favorite phrase
From those good old days
Let those tears and sweet memories flow

[prodigalmess]

Malcolm puts down his wine glass and looks across the table at his mother.

"This is the third time you've played that song tonight," he says. "Why?"

It could be one of any number of reasons when it comes to her. The funny thing is that she's using a digital bluetooth speaker while Malcolm still uses a record player. He likes the vintage sound that it gives him. Nothing digital can compare.

1. Sunrises, nightfalls
Sometimes the sky calls.
Is that a song there?
Then do I belong there?
I've never been there but I know the way
I'm going to go back there some day.

2. I got cabin fever. It's burning in my brain.
I got cabin fever. It's driving me insane!
We've got cabin fever. We're flipping our bandanas.
Been stuck at sea so long that we have simply gone bananas!

3. Peer into the panic for a kick and swell.
You know you shouldn't be there but it's way past bed.
There's comfort in the fingers of your good intent.
You know you shouldn't be there but your money's all spent.
You've got your reputation and your good intent.
Your good intent.

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds

Minoru popped his head in the green room.

“Yeah, no. Starman’s waiting just off stage left, and you should be too! You guys go on in like 30 seconds! Go! Go!!”

[love_the_smell]

I.
And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

But if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?
And if you close your eyes
Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

II.
It may sound absurd, but don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed, but won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream

Well, it's alright.
You can all sleep sound tonight.

Luca Balsa | Identity V | OTA

[allegedprisoner]

1. When you try to abstain, when you break-a your brain
And the bug in your ear just drives you insane
I need to look into the mirror
I need to see the skies much clearer

I wanna go
I wanna see the other side
I lauded all day for much too long
Tied down my words to sing a song

I wanna know
I wanna see another world
It feels like I've only got one shot
Lost all my aim to rotten thoughts

2. And so maybe my home isn't what I had known
What I thought it would be
But I feel so alive with these phantoms of night
And I know that this life isn't safe
But it's wild and it's free

3. Far away, Long ago
Glowing dim like an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it yearns to remember

And a song someone sings
Once upon a December

Antonio | Identity V | OTA

[infernosonata]

1. And you, why you wanna stay?
Oh my God! Have you listened to me lately?
Lately, I've been fucking crazy...

There are some nights I wait for someone to save us
But I never look inward, try not to look upward
And some nights I pray a sign is gonna come to me
But usually, I'm just trying to get some sleep...

2. I've got so many fans with so many demands
I can hardly go take a piss
Be it theater freak or the autograph-seeker
They all want a piece of this
It's a cross that I bear, I'm like Jesus, I swear
It's a burden but I suffer through it
It's all part of the game, the trappings of fame
But somebody's gotta do it

And I know, I know, I gotta go
And get back to my pen and ink
Oh, don't make me do it!
Don't make me go through it!
Can somebody get me a drink?!

3. Let me put myself in your shoes as a puppet loosely strung.
Around you they were so confused a faulty man could have so much fun.
They read you smiles, nothing but teeth, looked at you with pity first, then disbelief.

Let me put myself in your shoes as a puppet loosely strung.
They may think they'd never choose to be the man that you've become.
You never felt the need to conform
We get drunk or high to feel what you've felt since you've been born.

I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do.
I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you.

[Voicetesting!]

1. Lonely soldier go home
Lonely, but never alone
Good eyes see nothing to shoot
Good feet feel good giving up good boots

2. And you'll find loss
And you'll fear what you found
When the weather comes, oh
Tearing down

There'll be oats in the water
There'll be birds on the ground
There'll be things you never asked her
Oh, how they tear at you now

3. Know that He has overcome every trial we will face
None too lost to be saved
None too broken or ashamed
all are welcome in this place

(Darth) Maul | Star Wars

[survivalthroughhate]

1. And the earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I've grown
By myself, but not alone
I ask no one

2. Pay no mind what other voices say
They don't care about you
Like I do
Like I do
Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils
See they don't give a fuck about you
Like I do

3. I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
