Having just watched the Actors on Actors ep with Sally Fields and Noah Wyle, you know what I realised?
The fact that some of the most successful versions of these formats have been episodes where the two guests just volley genuine appreciation for each other’s craft. In a way where you can tell they HAVE been great fans of each other's works and ARE genuinely curious as colleagues and contemporaries. Like they've held pieces of each other's works for so long and now get the time and platform to truly just get into it.
It brings me such joy to see artists not just talk shop but also get so openly giddy and supportive and downright awe-inspired by the people they know, work with, follow the work of, etc etc 🥹🤌✨️
If I like a fic without reblogging it know that I intended for it to be a "to be read later" kinda like, only for it to be buried under 1929499589 other things that I mass like, and then my ADHD pulls a sneak attack and I forget about it.
I swear I'm tryna be better about using my "tbr" tag 😭😭😭
Okay personal opinion time: This song wasn't even in my top 5 when I first had a run-through of the entire album. Cuz against some of the other songs, lyrically it doesn't hit as visually for me. Sonically it's safe, nostalgic in its sound, and having Robert Smith in a track after a song titled "The Cure" is cheeky at best.
But there's something here that you keep coming back to. You hear it a couple of times, and then the sheer yearning builds and builds on itself per listen. The two voices answer so well to each other through the duet. It's old school in its romance, takes you back to a 90s romcom through well-loved yearning montages. And now I can't listen to this song without getting lost in how in love these two sound (separately ofc lol) and how it calls to me to be this in love as well.
And gosh- okay, no joke, this song has unexpectedly become my favourite off of the album.
WAS NO ONE GONNA TELL ME I WAS GONNA BE RAN OVER WITH A TRUCKLOAD OF HEART IN THE NEW SUPERGIRL MOVIE?!?!?!?!
Like the one of the very few times (grateful for the canon-divergence) my heart shook at just how much loss and grief they wrapped her in, and her to STILL be good.
Not kind. Not happy. Not naive. Jaded by her trauma and still be good.
Supergirl 2026, despite your flaws and all, you have my heart. I see you for what you're saying. Truly 🩷
On account of my officially hitting 100 followers, respectfully—
˙⋆✮ What the fuck? ✮⋆˙
LOL, I’m joking, I’m joking— please don’t run away 😭
Though, to be fair, it is all downhill from here, folks. You’ve officially subscribed (which remains deeply perplexing to me) to my unfiltered thoughts and stream-of-consciousness posting. Hope you stick around for a while and enjoy the ride!
Okay, SO! I figured I’d reintroduce myself to the wild number of new faces around here—
⟡ Hi! My name’s Finco (She/Her) 👋
⟡ I’m a 26-year-old desi/brown woman
⟡ Chronically living and breathing fanfiction like my life depends on it (or, well… at least my mental health, lol)
⟡ I like to keep this space kind and respectful, so any hate or disrespect will definitely not be tolerated. There's too much of that offline, so let's just keep this space stress-free and stay away from all that online.
⟡ I cycle through fandoms like a menace at this point. Hook me with a solid angst-fest centred on a new character and you’ll have me obsessed for ages
⟡ If you haven’t noticed already, I am very fond of lists on lists on lists. Something about a neatly compiled fic list just scratches my brain perfectly
⟡ The main event around here is usually my month-end fic rec lists! My browser has died approximately one million deaths trying to keep up, but I wouldn’t have it any other way, lmao
⟡ BIG on reblogging and sharing. So if you’ve got personal recs, hidden gems, or “you need to read this immediately” fics— send them my way!
Or if you just want to obsess over fanfic, fanart, TV shows, or films— my inbox is always open. I am absolutely down for a good fangirling session
⟡ Mostly a chronically online individual, actively ignoring the 500 real-life responsibilities waiting for me
⟡ A certified angst enthusiast (read: emotional masochist)
⟡ I love anything rooted in character study or analysis, but I also cannot resist a good haha-heehee fic
⟡ And finally… there is simply something dangerous about men with dark brown eyes and glasses, and I refuse to elaborate further
Thanks so much for being here— genuinely. Whether you’ve followed for the fic recs, the rambling, or the shared brainrot, I’m really glad you found your way onto this little corner of the internet 💛✨
