#chapter names

[sara-the-wizard]

Q6: on your second poll post ( the one you just did for I care) you mentioned a second arc....does that mean that after chapter 8, there will be a second part with 8 more chapters!?!?!??!?!!!!!plz say yes plz say yes!!!!!!

There will be a second arc with 5 chapters. (Not quite 8 unfortunately.)

(I had a post with the chapter names, but I can't find it. I guess I'll just write it again.) The chapter names for them are-

Chapter 9: Training.

Chapter 10: Warning.

Chapter 11: Ill intent.

Chapter 12: Not alone.

Chapter 13: Smile.

But these are more like working titles with a general idea behind them, I might change them later.

Is there an award for the worst chapter names out there?

[If so, gimmie. Won't make mama proud, but fuck it, it'd make me happy]

Need hefp :(

So remember how Chapter 1 in Press Play is named Sounds Like Singing after the song "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks? Which is also the lyrics shown in the chapter intro? Well for Chapter 2, the intro song I'm going with is "Get It On" by T. Rex (which I knew and loved even BEFORE I watched Longlegs, for those wondering). The song fits the chapter because this is gonna be Zima's first appearance, and it fits them so well. So I wanna use a line from Get It On as the chapter title, but I can't settle on one because, ngl, it's a banger song with awesome lyrics. Please help decide.

What to name Chapter 2

Untamed Youth (would fit bc it's the MC's and the band's youth ofc)

Dirty & Sweet (very Zima-specific. Very.)

Hubcap Diamond Star Halo (unrelated to the band but sooo nonsensical, I love it)

Honestly, maybe I'm just really funny.

sometimes i feel utterly diabolical putting together chapter names. chapter names are soooo fun! like i loveee how ‘embers’ fades into ‘high winds’, how they can play off of one another or symbolize something. some even having double meanings after certain plot points! oooooh i just love it 🤭

who looks at me like that

these are my funeral songs

this wallpaper has to go

I swear we were infinite

because tuesday.

anxiety in words

truly alive

numb mind, mind numb

blood on your face

cosmic feelings

stars around my scars

I had a marvellous time ruining everything

lisztomania

to live for the hope of it all

no champagne, just problems

served with a slice of childhood trauma
