Just a reminder that I'm still writing this fanfiction after five and a half years.... if you like 100k+ words, lots of graphic gay sex, and silly convoluted plot then I think you might like this. I swear every chapter Tchaikovsky is either sad or horny.

Very cool holiday gift from my brother and sister-in-law: a teacup with scenes from Tchaikovsky’s Onegin! (It goes well with the tea they gave me a couple years ago.)

Where in the world did you get that I am so jealous rn

[p-tchaikovsky]

Baritones are sexy... sorry

Eugene Onegin is fucking revolutionary… that’s it that’s the post

[p-tchaikovsky]

Y’all. I just wrote for the first time in MONTHS. It was absolutely exhilarating. The chapter basically wrote itself it’s like second fucking nature. I’m so happy y’all ❤️❤️❤️ my little heart is going to explode.

If you haven’t go and read my fanfic I’m finally updating again!!

Brooooo do I spy another trans opera enthusiast?????

Yes. You have spotted me!! How!!!

[psilocervidae]

Y'all I think Tumblr is seriously underestimating Opera as an art form. It's just like. Musical theatre but with 900% more Italy, 175% more melodrama, 250% more murder, and like,,, 800% more homoerotic tension.

I was journaling and this question came up:

Am I attracted to Dmitri Hvorostovsky or do I just want to be him??

Me trying to figure out my gender is this song.

Opera companies give trouser roles to transmasc sopranos!!!

My pronouns are he/they. I just changed them from he/they/she because I feel weird when the general population calls me that but it’s ok when queer people call me it. Someone on tiktok I forget who it was, calls it conditional pronouns which makes sooo much sense. Anyway another little thing about gender. I do like they/them pronouns but I feel like a lot or people use it as a like an excuse to not use he and that makes me so uncomfortable and so annoyed because people just use they/them pronouns for me allll the time(besides my wonderful lovely boyfriend) and it’s just like ugh. But then there’s other times when he doesn’t feel right but they doesn’t feel right and she feels right but it makes me feel insecure because it makes me feel less trans or something and I hate when people call me it because I feel like they just think I’m a girl but she/her pronouns feel right on the inside???

Anyway. Gender makes no sense I simply wish to not be perceived cause this shit is confusing 😭😭😭😭 anyway does anyone else feel this way LOL

[p-tchaikovsky]

Tchaikovsky is like the best writing music cause it portrays such big emotions but Jesus Christ it’s so distracting. As someone who is pretty well versed in tchaik’s pieces and his career I can recognize melodies he’s used in different pieces but I can’t always pinpoint them. So you know what I have to do then, yes stop writing and go search for them. 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼

[p-tchaikovsky]

After a longgggg hiatus I have started to get back into Tchaikovsky because when I have a break from music school that is ever consuming idk what to do with myself. Looking through some of my drafts and wondering why I never posted them. I might be doing some of that in the near future. I’ve missed my beloved tumblr blog pls come and follow along for the ride

Dark academia things I do in my everyday life/ things in my life that give off dark academia vibes

Do I like the dark academia aesthetic? Yes. Do I also make fun of it endlessly? Yes.

Drinking a nice cup of tea

Listening to classical music(specifically romantic because we all know that gives off hella dark academia vibes)(… or baroque but only baroque opera)

Watching/listening/researching operas

Researching composers(Tchaikovsky/ composers I am singing)

Opera/ performance gowns

Blazers/buying blazers

Shopping for fall fashion in the summer

Writing my fanfic feels inherently dark academia(boys/boarding school/ 19th century what more can I say)

My music school building( from the 19th century the rest of the buildings on campus are like weirdly like 20th century modern)

Cafe Nero and I hate saying that

Forever enjoying chai lattes

My boyfriend reading me his poetry

Visiting my boyfriend in providence( he goes to brown)

Discussing literature/ old French and Italian movies with my forever lover(yes with my boyfriend who goes to brown)

My layering in the winter

Going to the music building late at night and practicing on the top floor(especially if it’s a clear night or during a blizzard) (yes I have gone to practice at 9 at night in a blizzard)

Being a vocal performance major/ training to be an opera singer

Singing coloratura pieces

Singing any of the following that are in my rotation: Handel(especially Handel) Mozart, Strauss, Schubert, Purcell(kind of) Reynaldo Hahn

French opera/ French art songs

The song Psyché by Emile Paladilhe (go listen to it I love it, I sang it for juries last semester)

All songs from the black composers anthology

Visiting and taking pictures at the MFA Boston

Jesus lord have mercy my fucking wire rim circular glasses

The list goes on and on and I’ll probably be adding to this. This is partly to poke fun at dark academia but also clue y’all into my life more/ prove I am ever so slightly an intellectual/ I could never be fully dark academia I am too chaotic

[p-tchaikovsky]

Y’all wtf I need genderqueer friends I just feel like I need to talk to people who get it :(
