Oh man, I miss playing bass guitar! This song is so simple, but the amount of dopamine I got from learning and playing it was so good.

Jun: Asuka, show me how the Kazama-ryu evolved while I was away.

Asuka: Alright, auntie.

Uhm no, Dr. Lae'zel, especially when your assistants are Kazuya Mishima and Jun Kazama. There's nothing wrong with my resting heart rate thank you

As nice it is to see something like this, I must say that there are plenty of other amazing Shadow’zel fics out there written by some seriously talented people! After all, if it weren’t for some particular fics that caught my eye a while back, I would’ve never started writing for this amazing fandom in the first place!

Share your fav Shadow’zel fics everyone! Let Aspenstorm2012 see the truth!

Glad to finally see someone who also uses the Ao3 bookmark to yap and make reviews about the fic they just read. Tho mine looks like this and is a bit of a spoiler hazard.

There's a new story under a ship you're following in Ao3:

The story puts the characters you love in very unsavory and inappropriate situations you'd rather not see

The saddest part is that your ship is so rare, and the community is small, and you just really want to see wholesome creations from people. But you get some bad eggs sometimes, I guess that's just how fandoms are, there is always a crazier person than you.

I love that when you listen to this song using at least a decent pair of headphones, you can tell they MADE EFFORT in the placement of everyone during the recording session. Louder instruments sound farther away, while the quieter ones, like the piano and the bass, sound clearer because they're nearer. You don't see the effect these days because studios tend to produce things differently. Clearner, yeah, but very artificial sounding sometimes. Like, when you listen to this old song, it feels like the band is in your room. There is something warm about how they sound. Meanwhile some newer songs just feel like...just there? Loud? Can't explain it but I think these two here are the best examples to demonstrate what I mean:

This scene from Ishmael Bernal's Himala visited my mind once again. This is not as iconic as Nora Aunor's "Walang Himala, ang himala ay nasa puso ng tao" bit, but I think this scene got more weight for those who intend to touch. And Nimia is such a cool, underrated character.

It does two things so subtly (?) you kinda miss it if you're just watching casually, or just watching the movie for a school assignment. In fact, the whole movie is just like that, which is very rare nowadays.

I'm so happy I personally picked to watch this movie, and we never had to make a review of it back in school because I would've not appreciated it as much as I appreciate it now.

Reminded me of my fic... I dunno how to recover it anymore 😭😭😭

[tacodread]

Oh well, the original "I hate Heihachi" trio

This game is so random looool Asuka and Lili just got married, while Kazuya is crying, and Lae'zel is singing her heart out in her frog costume.

This is some crazy level of fanfic writing I swear

[tacodread]

This is fanon canon if you know what I mean

[tacodread]

Of course, Lili. Of course xD

[tacodread]

What the heck, Lili? You literally just met her looool

Answered something from Reddit and cross-posting my answer here because I had fun.

Alternate Shadowzel, where Shadowheart accepted Shar and became a DJ, while Lae'zel rejected Vlaakith and joined Orpheus. It's just so tragic, I can't stop thinking about the possible reunion between them.

And also because of this song: https://youtu.be/b2pjXlooSVE

When you finally found a main that suits your style but still want to honor your previous mains because they are still your favorite characters in the fandom.
