ORIGINAL CHARACTER

NAME: Lucian Ezekiel Haze

NICKNAME: insert

AGE: twenty - four

PERSONALITY: Lucian is a bit of a hothead even if he doesn’t like to admit it. honestly, though the male is also very caring considering what his occupation is. he doesn’t want his loved ones to lose their lives or anything of value to them; he is protective. Lucian is a secret romantic, he will never say that but if you look at his actions close enough you can see it. He is quick witted, known to always be on his toes. the male is also sarcastic, he doesn’t mind his duh tone when he speaks to others. Lucian is also a jokester, however some of his jokes can be more inappropriate once he is comfortable around you.

Charlotte McCurdy & Phillip Lim “ Algae Sequin Dress”

Fashion designer Phillip Lim has teamed up with industrial designer Charlotte McCurdy to create a petroleum-free dress covered in bioplastic sequins.

Algae bioplastic fronds are sewn onto a biodegradable base layer made of plant fibres. This makes the dress free of crude-oil derivatives such as synthetic fibres, dyes and plastic sequins, which have recently come under fire for the pollution they cause.

The collaboration is part of the One X One project, an incubator organised by the Slow Factory Foundation that pairs high-profile fashion designers with sustainability innovators.

This is just a music rant. A3! spoilers ahead for the Autumn Troupe’s story.

i’mma be honest, i’ve been listening to OneXone (song for the Autumn Troupe of A3!) for a solid while, and I can fucking vibe with it. 

sure, it’s all in japanese, and i can only understand what they’re saying when they briefly speak english, but i still fucking love it.

not only is it the song from my favorite troupe (i adore spring troupe, summer troupe and winter troupe, but i love the autumn troupe the most), but the way it sounds is just fucking brilliant.

when i refer to the lyrics in the song, i’ll use the romaji, so here we go! translations will be after the romaji, and it is from the lyrics video on the YouTube channel Jenne Frost. That link goes straight to the video, not their channel.

ANYWAY, THIS’LL BASICALLY JUST BE ME NERDING OUT OVER THE SONG. YOU MIGHT WANNA LISTEN TO IT DURING OR BEFORE READING THIS. UP TO YOU.

The beginning (which is in English) is gonna be skipped over. But you’ll hear it eventually.

We’ll also skip Banri’s first singing lines because reasons.

Now, here’s Juza’s lines:

“Risou motome agaku hodo PURESSHAA ga tsunotteiku” (The more I struggle to reach my ideal, the pressure builds)

I love the way that Juza’s line weaves into the bridge. The guitar, the way the voice rises. Just *chef’s kiss*

Now... the bridge and the chorus always get me. But I was first attracted to this song by the bridge. Mainly the way it sounds.

“(Come on!) Mada mada korekara da ikareta GEEMU wa. (Do it!) Kakatte koi yo ojikedzuiteru baai janee daro. (Shut up!) Gata gata urusee yo nani sama dattenda?” (This twisted game has only just begun. Bring it on, now’s no time to get scared. Stop yapping; who the hell do you think you are?)

THE WAY THIS SOUNDS IS JUST FUCKING GORGEOUS.

I dunno what it is with me, but hearing contrast in music makes me fucking love it immediately. hearing the vocals and guitar differ from each other is just fucking perfect.

Now for the rest of the bridge:

“(Oh god!) Gattsuri dashi nukarete mo koukai suru na yo. (No way) Ato modori wa dekinai daro. Are you ready?” (No regrets if someone gets the better of you. There’s no turning back now.)

And that is a solid question. That part of the bridge is slower and much more... steady? Solid? Than the other part. Y’know? 

But the chorus.

THE CHORUS.

“Don’t ever let me down; donna toki demo. Tagai ni takame au chikara o. (Yeah!) Did you ever get the feeling; mitomete ita. Tashika na jounetsu o.” (Don’t ever let me down; at any time. We give each other the power to improve. Did you ever get the feeling; acknowledge. This undeniable passion.)

THIS PART IS INFECTIOUSLY GOOD. I’M TALKING I FIND MYSELF SINGING AND HUMMING ALONG EVERY DAMN TIME. THE WAY IT SOUNDS AND FLOWS IS AMAZING.

Next is Omi and he just sounds phenomenal.

“Saiaku no kibunda nante tawagto haku hima wa dokoni mo naikara” (I’ve got no time to complain “I’m feeling sick as hell,” so)

The last few notes of “naikara” just make me fucking wanna cry at the angel who was sent down to us.

“Atama ni kobiritsuita chinpuna mousou o furiharatte ikou ze” (Let’s shake off this cheap delusion that’s latched itself onto our minds)

Same deal as with Juza’s first lines.

And for some reason, Sakyo’s next line has always caught my attention.

“(Get up!) Dara dara shitenna yo hayaku oi tsuite koi.” (Stop lazing around; hurry and catch up)

The “oi tsuite koi” has always rubbed me a certain way. It’s not terrible, not at all. It’s just always stuck out. I dunno if it’s the way he says it or the way the words sound, but it’s just always snatched my attention from something else.

“(Show me!) Damattenaide omae no PURAIDO butsukete miro. (Drop it!) Ira ira sasen na yo konna tokoro de. (Watch out!) Bonyarishita kao ni ippatsu kamashite yaru yo. (May be)” (Don’t stay silent; show me your pride. Don’t frustrate me with something like this. I’ll throw a punch into your spaced out face.)

Now, this is the same deal as the bridge before.

HOWEVER!

THE LINE THAT FOLLOWS, NOW THAT I KNOW THE TRANSLATION IS JUST FUCKING GREAT!

Banri said the last line (the one about punching), which makes Juza respond with this:

“Hari ai ga motto hoshiindaro?” (You want more competition, right?”

If you play A3! or know anything about Banri and Juza, it’s that Banri met Juza and they fought. Banri had never lost a fight up until that day. And he’s wanted to fight Juza and win ever since. But Juza doesn’t want to fight. he just wants to act, and become a new person. Someone less scary.

But Juza is just egging Banri on, and it’ll fucking kill both him and Banri.

Taichi and Omi ask this after.

“Don’t you want it?”

FURTHER TAUNTING.

“I’ll be the one for you; nando datte sa. Hokoreru mono wo butsuke aeba. (Yeah!) Show me what you got; detarame demo ii yo? Riyuu nante iranai.” (I’ll be the one for you; as many times as it takes. Let our pride clash. Show me what you got; who cares if it’s bullshit? We don’t need a reason.)

This is my feral rat boys being feral rat boys, I love.

Then there’s a rad fucking guitar solo.

Sakyo: “Never lie to yourself.”

Omi: “Get up you motherfucker.”

Taichi: “Shout it out to the world.”

All Three: “You got to break through the wall! Here we go!”

There three are being bitches and I love them. Also, when I found out exactly what they were saying and who was saying what, I was shocked that Omi (the mom of the A3! dorms) literally said “motherfucker”. No censorship. Nothing.

Next is just Banri and Juza together.

“Are you ready? Don’t ever let me down; donna toki demo. Tagai ni takame au chikara o.” (Don’t ever let me down; at any time. We give each other the power to improve.)

This shows how their relationship developed, both onstage as their characters (Luciano and Lansky) and onstage as friends. As well as offstage.

Of course, they still have their scuffles, but now? They’re fucking better than before, that’s for damn sure.

The rest is the same shit as above, and I just love it.

Okay... that’s all. I think we’re good for now.

Going to try and keep this short and sweet. I’m a 21yr+ female role player looking for someone who is comfortable playing male dominate characters. I’m a strictly female main role player, but am more than happy to double, or triple up on side characters (male or female). I’m also more than confident in multiple forums, even multiple generations.

I need someone who can build a world, character(s), and keep the story alive. I love discussing plot twists, development, and over all just chatting. I’m searching for a long term role play. I type 2-3 paragraphs and would like close to the same. I’m also extremely detailed.

You must be 21yrs+ (if you can meet what I’m asking and you are at least 18yr+ I’ll give you a shot), but must be comfortable with smut (I like it a lot in the story just not a main focus), and able to develop original characters and story. I do not do canons or most fandoms.

⚜ ROYAL AFFAIRS ⚜

Azra Saltana Yilmaz - Imperial Princess of Turkey, 1st of her name

[otoroll]

I’d be hard-pressed to tell you if I had a favorite troupe in all of A3! I can tell you Summer is my least favorite (as has been stated in the tags way too many times), and my top three Mankai actors are divided between the remaining three troupes.

But Omi is my kami-oshi, so sometimes I feel I owe Autumn more affection and I... don’t. oneXone isn’t really making a case for them, either. It’s an okay song - actually I kept thinking of Ranmaru’s BRIGHT ROAD from UtaPri every time I played it. It’s the anison electric guitar effect and the sudden jump from low bridge to the higher chorus, I think. Keeps bringing to mind that “If I was your lover” hook.

But it’s not a song I’m excited to listen to or to play. It’s just the kind of song that, if it came on the radio for whatever reason, I’d tap along, but I’m kind of sick of electric guitar being anison shorthand for “We’re EDGY!!” and it’s really not Autumn Troupe’s fault that they’re the ex-delinquent group so of course they get the rock song. And the beat progression is kind of predictable so I don't feel the challenge.

Honestly I should probably just be playing everything on Hard instead of Normal.
