Music List

@hardlyfatal, @isaralover and @zip00198704 tagged me to name 10 songs and I’m super late to the party so I won’t tag a lot of people...

1. Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High? Arctic Monkeys. It’s currently stuck in my head.

2. About A Girl, Nirvana. Always and forever.

3. For the Good Times, written by Kris Kristoferson but I prefer Johnny Cash’s version. It inspired my WIP Burning Bridges and gave it its title, so...

4. Laissez-moi danser, Dalida. She was an Italian-born singer, a French icon and the queen of disco in my country. I always end up singing her songs when I feel sad. The craziest tune, the better. If you don’t understand what I’m talking about, watch this video.

5. Alabama Song, The Doors.

6. Summertime, Janis Joplin.

7. Carmen, Lana del Rey. Very, very often stuck in my head.

8. Chan Chan, Compay Segundo. My mom’s recent trip to Cuba reminded me how wonderful this song is.

9. Bad Moon Rising, Creedence Clearwater Revival. 

10. Jacqueline, Franz Ferdinand. 

Tagging people with excellent taste: @musingsofaquietmind, @texsophie and @michael1280.

I didn't seen movie yet . You have so many character, wants give them part of your story. Multiple characters you have . thanks for sharing your thoughts. I hope you have some girls for Muta and Toto. Struggling for life and has relationship and experience new things. WOW

I would wholly recommend you check out the movie. It’s so good! 

And as for Toto and Muta - given that I already have three couples, I don’t think I’ll be adding a romantic subplot for either of them. They will have their own stories, just not a romance one.

Lovely. Is it under water?

Yes it is, Thonis Heracleion is a lost city, not far from Alexandria, Egypt. If you want to learn more about this sunken city, you can read this article from The Guardian.

isaralover replied to your post “The Greatest Showman AU?”

I like your imagination and explain drama and problems every person you mentioned. Whole your attention was mostly on Louise.

Honestly, I missed out most of it because a) I haven’t worked it out yet, I’m just playing around with the idea and b) Louise’s plot was one that brought the story together, so I just focused mainly on that to avoid the post getting too long. But okay, here’s a few other plotlines:

Lune and Yuki falling in love. Similarly from The Greatest Showman, they have issues with their class differences, mainly that Lune’s father disapproves, as do most of the nobility. 

The circus itself. Baron has problems getting the circus off the ground, and when it does, it still attracts negative attention from people who view the show’s entertainers as “freaks”, which also causes sabotage attempts and, eventually, an arson attack. 

Haru learning the acrobat/trapeze act, which is also the Baron-and-Haru-fall-in-love plotline. Baron helps her practice and gives her the courage to work towards that dream. 

(Also, I have the idea that Toto is really good with music and, like Haru, requires a bit of encouragement before he feels comfortable enough to try to do more. I like the image that either Baron or Louise, given their carpentry upbringing, help make a hand-like structure that enables him to hold a violin bow so he can pursue that dream.)

isaralover replied to your post “how to trick writers into giving you more fanfic to read”

@asimplylucia You are very kindly. Major of writer, whose I did review to them,doesn't answers back or update their story for years ,funny thing is this ,they're publishing a new story . Because that most of time I would not leave a comment.

In my experience the vast majority of fanfic writers answer the comments they receive and they don’t practice story dropping but... what you describe here sometimes happens, alas. I’m a very slow writer and I’m afraid that sometimes people get the impression I dropped a story whereas I’m just struggling to finish it *sigh*

On one hand I’m happy this story’s almost over and on the other hand, posting this chapter makes me a tad nervous... I hope you’ll like it!
