FIGHT THROUGH THE DARK @sparkbright - Tumblr Blog

#sparkbright — an independent roleplaying blog for Luke Patterson from Julie and the Phantoms, as written and oh so dearly beloved by Hannah (she/her, 25+, CST)! Activity level here is like... he lives in my head, and if people plotted activity would be really high, but I'm okay with if people don't want to plot he lives in here with me and sometimes I gotta yell about it and that's what this blog is for.

**Dash only; this may change in the future but it's how it is for now. Rules and about available on carrd linked below.

#dni pretty pls #beta editor sry if you're somehow clinging to the old one

i haven't seen this post in ages it might not even be a tumblr post but you know that one post that's like "i used to be really moved by church service and i thought that was god but then i realized music is just like that" ?

#(rolls away into the abyss)

this is my fault for putting on his playlist but i'm just. really emo about these kids specifically in the meta-context of netflix not being willing to give them a chance, if that makes sense?

#:(

this is because my shower playlist has jatp songs and also luke songs on it. anyway: let luke say Fuck

#i'm... half joking #i do think he does i don't think it's like #all the time? knows the power and catharsis of a well placed swear but probably doesn't every other word #(rolls away into the abyss)

#BWE;TLGKJW;ELKJG;LKFJGTG;KJTG yeah

normal levels of like, including (checks notes) zooming in on an artist's work to see if they drew the dinosaur on his wallet

#(they did not)#((((it's from a video game)))

(which isn't to say he is never and can't be selfish. just that i think it's weird people act like it's a defining trait for him to only be selfish.)

#''he's chasing fame and money'' he's chasing. Connection.#this is not even subtext he says it Out Loud. he also says ''it's not about the money'' out loud at LEAST twice im---

shuffling shuffling shuffling. also i am parsing scenes for gif/caps to edit for graphics and can i just say. it's insane to me that Anyone landed at "Luke only cares about himself" like what. the HELL are you talking about, actually. half of his scenes are him going ";jsdfg;lkfj MUSIC" and the other half are "YOU GUYS GOT THIS YOU'RE SO GOOD DON'T LET THE MAN GET YOU DOWN"

#exaggeration obv but [rattles the bars of my cage]#also uhhhh the uh #''You don't gotta worry about me'' literally does not even want Him to be a subject!#it's about. the music!!!!#also also im consistently fascinated by the way alex goes to bat for him when julie is mad at luke #but then any time they're dealing with like. caleb or signups or just like. the general ''what now'' everybody turns and looks at luke #and the ''you can hide behind me and i'll be hiding behind luke'' is a. joke moment but also #no yeah that's exactly how that goes #chews on the ghost show. fuq u netflix

SCRIBBLE.

#shuffling so many things at this very second #i desperately want to update my graphics and maybe my carrd #but my luke playlist is. beating me up!#wow!

I originally posted this on the archived multi so what if i just reupload it here and go (aaaahhhhh) i love him so bad

the thought here is something like...everyone trips on their words a little from time to time, especially when nervous, but the consistency and predictability of when Luke does, particularly on "I" (/"we") focused statements and stalling words ("and", "if", "oh", "uh") leads me to think this is a specific quirk of his. I don't think it's a physiological stutter but there's definitely some kind of hangup somewhere between what he thinks and what he says. I think he likes to have time to plan his sentences and doesn't always get that chance, so he ends up tripping and stalling for time in the middle of things. Music is cool because it gives him the time to think long and hard about what he's trying to say and get it just right before he lays it all out there.

#tiny turbulent boy #i think about his i-i-i-i's and a-a-a-and's so much. SO MUCH.

uhhhhh it's messy here but i love him and i want to keep him hi

something something. the music is julie infused into the band's existing sound. something something luke singing in julie's style instead.
