DAY 2: Funhouse

DAY 3: Lover Dearest

DAY 4: Fake Plastic Trees

DAY 5: Riot!

DAY 6: Cemetery Drive

DAY 7: People in High Places

(Note: the prompts this year are named explicitly after songs and albums. You need not listen to any music for this, but if you’re getting a creative block and need some inspo, that’s a hint for you!)

RULES

1. Espave only! The exception is If you’re writing something: it’s okay to have other characters as long as they don’t pull focus.

2. Tag it with #Espave Week so I can reblog! You can also use #Espave I’ll find it there as well lol it’s not a busy tag.

3. You can make art or write, but that’s not all! Avatars, headcanons, prompts, crafts, cosplays, playlists, and anything else you can think of will also be accepted. I’m open to everything!

4. If you don’t want to use any of the prompts that’s okay, they’re suggestions. You can submit anything for the duration of the week, and after too hehe

5. There are no rating restrictions, but do remember to Dead Dove & tag appropriately if you’re getting your freak on! This also entails:

6. Don’t be an asshole about what someone else is making! This goes for both the more tame and more risque

7. Have fun and participate however you so choose! There’s no pressure to make anything but as always, likes comments and reblogs are always appreciated from everyone who participates

BONUS RULE: My asks will be open for you to either submit or suggest things for me or others to make! If you want to request or simply ask things about the ship (both on a meta level or just a headcanon inquiry) send something along and I’ll do my best to deliver 🙂

Thank you for a wonderful Espave Week! After you read this (holding you at gunpoint) and cry, please proceed with participating in BABYLON ROGUES WEEK!

[serendipityhippityhoppity-deact]

I am so sorry, I'm working on a huge project for these two and I won't be able to finish this week and I can't draw on Sunday... Take these crumbs while I sulk in the corner for now 🫠

Espave Week Prompt Six:

Cemetery Drive

---

Well, if you wanted honesty That's all you had to say If you want, I'll keep on crying For all the dirty looks The photographs your boyfriend took Staring down a loaded gun Is this what you always want me for?

Did you say, "It isn't that much fun?" I thought you wanted me Singing songs that make you slit your wrists In the middle of a gunfight When this memory fades, I'm gonna make sure it's replaced In the dress your husband hates

Where the search lights find us I just need a compass and a willing accomplice They say, "Come with your arms raised high" It's like the way we fight It's electrifying

What's the worst that I can say? "Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change?" You said you read me like a book Because I could do worse and you could do better

Sometimes I think that the bitter in you and the quitter in me Is better than the both of us 'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire

"Did you get what you deserve? 'Cause You'll get what you deserve"

Fire!

Day 7: People in High Places

I can't believe I drew something for each day (´TωT`)

Thanks @bitter-sweet-coffee for this week, I enjoyed it so much <3

Espave Week Prompt Five:

RIOT!

---

There are people looking through the window in the door With words I cannot verbalize They want and what they want, its easy if you do it right At the bottom of the blackest hole And it's obvious that you're dying, dying With every breath that you breathe in, just breathe it in

Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now? You do all this big talking When you say you don't need me anymore What does that even mean? (We don't know!) 'Cause I'm just trying to keep this together So why can't you stay just long enough to explain?

"Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change" You've got a lot of nerve, I wonder Is that as good as it gets? I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore I've gone for too long living like I'm not alive With every breath that you breathe in, just breathe it in

Why don't you stand up? Be a man about it Fight with your bare hands about it now I said let's see you walk it The constant battle that you hate to fight It's like one of those bad dreams, When it gets too much So why can't you stay just long enough to explain?

Do I have your attention? Let's take it from the top You'll get what you deserve 'Cause I burned Every bridge I ever built when you were here Don't you ever tell me I'm not lovin' you best And oh, oh, open wide, 'cause this is your night With every breath that you breathe in, just breathe it in

Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now? I noticed your eyes are always glued to me When you say you don't need me anymore So I'm gonna start over tonight, beginning with you and I Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone Can we just say the rest with no sound?

And have I told you? I'm outside, sitting in the garden, clutching my coffee I'm not leaving So don't you leave me

Day 4: Fake Plastic Trees

She looks like the real thing

She tastes like the real thing

My fake plastic love

[pacdevil-deactivated20250424]

Espave Week Prompt Three:

Lover Dearest

---

This place is a hole

I stayed for a while

This habit is always so hard to break

But I don't wanna go

I wish we could stay here forever alone

This time that we waste

We'd go to sleep and then

You'd wake me up and kick me out of bed at 3 AM

But I still love your taste

I wish we could stay here forever alone

I just open my mouth

And waited for words

And the only thing you want is just to

Love me when I'm gone

I wish we could stay here forever alone

I wonder why, why, I wonder why, why I outta

Let you wreck, resurrect whatever you wanna

It hurts me to say that I want you to stay

What you want, what you need has been killing me

Sometimes I wish you would leave me

My tongues turnin' black

You're taunting smirk behind the glass

No words are coming now

And I can't find my breath

All my doubts that fill my head

And the space between the things you know is blurring nonetheless

It gets to be too much sometimes

Another night I'm on another broken avenue

But it's always gonna come right back to this

Right?

God, I wish that I could

I could slip into you

but, Sometimes, I don't know what you want

So leave me

Day 3: Lover Dearest

Going with my own associations mostly

[pacdevil-deactivated20250424]

Espave Week Prompt Two:

Funhouse

---

Sure I'll have another one, it's early

Three olives, shake it up, I like it dirty

I guess I'll go sit with drum boy, sitting in the garden

Right?

Motorcycle's in the parking lot

Revving their engines and it just wont stop

It's like the way we fight

Right?

So what if it's only one o'clock in the afternoon?

I can't help it I like to party, it's genetic!

I won't remember, save your breath 'cause what's the use?

Right?

How many times have I kicked you out of here?

When you say you don't need me anymore

'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home

Right?

Please don't tell me that we had that conversation

All the lights are on, but I'm in the dark

I can't help thinking that we lost the plot

Right?

I'm trying to figure out what else to say

To make you turn around and come back this way

What is it with you that makes me act like this?

Whispers turn to yellin' and I'm thinkin'

You used to hold the door for me

Now you can't wait to leave

Right?

I feel like we could be really awesome together

I'll meet you there, sitting in the garden, clutching my coffee

Because you were perfect

Right?

Part 1/4

This'll be a four-part series that'll be left up to your interpretation, because I like doing that with my poems smirks.
