𝐃𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐀𝐈𝐒𝐋𝐄 𝟗, often stylized as 𝐃𝐈𝐍𝟗, is an experimental rock band from London, United Kingdom. The band is renowned for their avant garde, cheerful space opera with elaborate and intricate storylines of fictional renegades / rock band in outer space. 

Their sound predominantly consists of classic rock, trip hop, post-grunge, and psychedelic rock. They’re inspired by artists like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Gorillaz, Cibo Matto, Garbage, Metric, among a few.

The band consists of:

Amira Shams, the main vocalist, storyteller, and lyricist as Aurora, the lost princess of Arsira  Singing examples — she is a mezzo soprano. 

August Wang, the drummer, songwriter, backing vocals, and multi-instrumentalist as Arther, the banished king of Alhea.  Drumming example 1,  example 2, & example 3  / singing example

Minho Cha, the lead guitarist and visual artist as Ringo, the marksman of Goltracks Guitar example 1, example2 

The brainchild of August and Amira, the band grew overnight success that they credit to their “mutual hotness.” Though some also identify their success with Amira’s solo work as a bubblegum popstar. They started as a four-piece band with their first single and widely loved debut album, Spaced Out: Chronicles of The Space Renegades. that won British Album of the Year at the Brit Awards and seven other nominations.  

Their second album Superfluid Space Time: And Saving A Prince from The Arthadark Prison, saw the addition of Taewon Kang. Their second album earned them a Grammy

sadtempo​:

“sounds like you’re getting old,” julian jests, grin intact. “but if that’s what this means for you, what’s that say about me?” likely that he’s ancient. he sure as hell feels it, what with everything he’s gone through. losing multiple people you love will do that to a person; you grow up in an instant but somehow still not fast enough to pull the thread between you and the deceased closer on the timeline.

life is cruel that way.

“yeah, well. it’s not the caring part i’m opposed to. it’s the shitty reality that i’m gonna end up disappointing her.”

over and over again. julian has no doubt he already has done exactly that on numerous occasions, and he’s uncertain over why he’s chosen tonight of all nights to admit this aloud; not only this, but he’s done it directly to taewon of all people… someone julian is sure will relay the message back to amira. but despite all of her hovering ( or what julian perceives her presence to be as of late ) he cannot deny he cares for her, like a sister he never had but was destined to coexist with.

“yeah. come on, can’t risk any weirdos out there seeing her alone and trying something.”

as they leave the symphony of nightlife sounds and fresh air enters julian’s lungs, there’s a visible change in his posture. gone is the need to appear perfect on the off chance that someone is lurking nearby with their phone camera at the ready. his ears are ringing, but only a pinch. expected, from how loud the bass was cranked up on the speakers. he often wonders if he’ll need hearing aids by forty with how much sound pervades his ears on a daily basis.

“what are you up to these days then, other than making sure princess pain-in-the-ass isn’t getting kidnapped? i feel like i’m out of the loop.”

“SOMETIMES IT DOES FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING WAS MANY LIFETIMES AGO,” he quietly agreed with the sentiment. like there was a silent understanding between them despite their experiences being starkly different. maybe it was their similar outlook toward life, something amira didn’t share with her friends. she still had that light in her (something taewon was aggressively determined to safeguard).

but wasn’t that light exactly what julian needed?

“you might... i have,” he spoke up softer, unsure if he should speak this at all— and to julian out of all people. it wasn’t like him either to speak his heart out either but somehow he felt julian would get it... as if they shared a discreet nod in a crowd of people. “we might have that in common?”

illegal races, underage drinking, getting into more fights than he could count, pushing her away, masking his feelings with venom, and then vanishing without a word for more than a year. he wasn’t exactly the ideal man... his daduncle was right, maybe he was his father’s son after all.  

“but i guess even fuck ups like us can get great friends.” 

it was what kept him pushing, if someone like amira cared for him then maybe there was something good in him. 

taewon becomes quiet then until the sharp night air hits his face. the silence felt more like home now that his life consisted of hiding away in the corners of the night. julian’s company was an easy one, he didn’t feel obliged to speak or put in a spot. instead, he laughed, a loud and open kind of laugh. 

“mostly just that, keeping her highness safe is a full-time career. i’ve been modeling and doing what dad wants me to do career-wise and i got super tattooed. what about you? how’s everything going?” it was convenient to leave out the dead and turned into a demon part.

thedivinepair​:

  The  tumultuous  storm  roaring  within  her  chest  seemed  to  still  at  his  words.  Amira  hushed  and  turned  to  him  with  hope  flickering  in  her  gaze    —      it  turned  into  the  shape  of  tears  filling  the  cups  of  her  eyes  like  pearls.    “  Promise  ?  ”    her  voice  cracked  as  she  held  his  much  bigger  hand  in  hers.  Yet,  she  didn’t  reiterate  her  demand    —      the  strange  tranquility  that  blanketed  her  face  illustrated  her  belief  in  his  words.

  Who  would  she  believe  in  the  whole  wide  world  if  not  Taewon  Kang  ?

  There  he  stood  in  an  image  just  as  strong  as  he  had  always  been.  It  was  odd  to  think  of  in  the  fleeting  moment,  but  she  had  seen  the  same  dependability  in  him  when  they  were  children.  She  would  turn  to  him  annoyed  at  the  most  minor  inconveniences  and  he’d  open  his  arms  wide  for  her.  Just  as  how  he  held  her  face  in  his  hands  at  the  moment  to  soothe  her  with  every  circle  his  thumbs  drew  on  her  cheeks.

  It’s  strange  how  one  recedes  into  their  childhood  in  the  moments  that  incite  fear  and  pain.

  But  perhaps  that  was  what  being  near  him  felt  like    —      despite  all  the  darkness  that  he  thought  dwelled  within  him    —      to  amira  he  always  symbolized  the  sunshine  of  her  childhood.  She  melted  into  his  touch  and  looked  up  at  him  with  all  the  love  the  universe  held  within  it.    “  I  believe  you.  But  you  drive  a  hard  bargain  mister    —      I’ll  take  it,  ”    she  scrambled  to  retain  her  humor  for  an  ounce  of  normalcy.

  When  he  turned  his  wide  back  to  her,  Amira  could  see  black  ink  encircle  from  behind  the  collar  of  his  jacket.  The  same  color  was  illustrated  on  the  back  of  his  hand.  She  wrapped  her  arms  around  his  broad  shoulders  and  hoisted  herself  up  with  the  help  of  years  of  experience.    “  You  got  a  lot  of  tattoos,  that’s  new.  ”

THOSE EYES— HE WANTED TO DROWN IN THEM. even the stars and galaxies couldn’t compare to them when she looked at him like that— as if she could love him like he loved her. taewon felt like a fever burning him at the thought of pressing her to himself as tightly as he could and kissing her till everything blurred into the shape of her. 

fuck, these thoughts could kill. 

he faltered for a moment, not like he hadn’t before, but his head tilted and he breathed in her air simply wanting something he shouldn’t have. he pulled away, a little dizzy and breathless... a strange circumstance for someone who didn’t need to breathe.

taewon stayed quiet to hush the loud hammering of his heart in his chest only adjusting to help hoist her on his back. the warmth of her not really helping with the problem. but at least he was thankful for her taking the topic somewhere else even if it wasn’t one he wanted to say a lot about. 

“yeah, had them done in los angeles— i know a guy. they make me feel good about myself,” like he was still a human. “there are everywhere now. my back, chest, arms—”  he stopped speaking, suddenly feeling worried. had he changed too much? well, that was a no-brainer when you die and rise from the dead as some unknown demon. but he hoped she liked them and thought he was the same man she had always known. why did that make his heart sink? 

he had walked a little distance in the middle of charred trees when he cleared his throat. “mia? when you said they’re new... they look okay on me, right? did i change too much? do you still think that i’m... me?” could she still adore the other changes in him? please, say yes. ‘please love me still.’

blindingspirits​:

she hopes he understands her— somehow in the whole world, she wants him to believe what she says. lily doesn’t even realize she is tensing up, her lips tightly shut as she looks at him with a sense of urgency. 

he squats down in front of her and she feels a wave of relaxation wash over her. she doesn’t know if he’s distracting her from the sound but she feels grateful. that doesn’t take away from the offense she feels, “i am a human!” at least she hopes she still is. she shouldn’t have to rethink this! tears sting her eyes again and she looks down. “can we get away from here first? i want to go home. i’ll give you the address. i just want to go home.”  

THERE WASN’T MUCH INFORMATION for him to know how to help her in the long run, but at least taewon knew what to do for the time being. “yeah, of course,” he nodded, flicking away the strand of grass. “i’m sorry, i’ll get you home right now.” he held out his hands to help her and stood there for a moment to ensure she was stable on her feet before he showed her the way outside the eerie forest. “can you walk to my bike? it’s not that far off. i can help you if want,” he scratched the back of his head, not sure what to make of the whole situation.  “sorry this isn’t the best situation for a chat, but for introduction’s sake, my name’s taewon kang.”

𝒕𝒂𝒆𝒘𝒐𝒏 said ❝ who bullied you into coming to one of these insane parties? ❞

the accuracy of the other’s question has julian laughing despite the fact that he’d started the night off with a raging headache and his biggest attitude to date. nevertheless, he’s here after babs and cath had quite literally dragged him out of bed by the ankles and tossed some valentino at him from his closet. they’d both stood right outside of the master bathroom as he’d showered and gotten ready to ensure he wouldn’t climb out the window and sneak away via fire escape, and julian had complained every single moment up until they’d shepherded him into the waiting car outside.

“my best friend. it’s her girlfriend’s party.”

to some degree, julian is strangely proud. everyone seems to be having a good time. the music selection is thankfully something he can only categorize as dark bass house instead of the usual garbage, and cath had plunked down some extra cash to hire go-go dancers. why he had to be here however, is beyond him. it’s not that he hates parties; not when they’re enjoyable like this one. he’s just been feeling more down and out than usual and would much rather be home wallowing in bed.

“you here with someone? god… don’t tell me amira came with you. i’ve been ignoring her texts for days now, she’s gonna serve my head on a party platter if she sees me.”

@thereckoniing​​​ ･ﾟ✧

IT WAS STRANGE HOW THINGS HAD TURNED OUT. there was a time when julian was one of the older kids he had looked up to. amira would somehow coerce him into one of her schemes against him and he’d follow her like he still did. maybe he wasn’t as close to julian as she had been ( touching people closely had always her gift and never his ), but he always liked to imagine there was some closeness between them. you want to think that about the people you had grown up with. 

then one day he pulled away and taewon didn’t think much of it. that was until the day he left without a word too. though what he went through was not even close to what julian did. just the thought of it would make him shiver. but love’s a bitch, isn’t it? 

so when julian laughed, taewon felt the knots in his chest relax. suddenly, he was grinning as well from ear to ear. “oh, that’s good, i don’t even know who’s party this is, to be honest,” he still seemed awkward, with his tattooed hands in his leather jacket pockets. “i’ve partied a little too much in my life, i think, now i’m bored.”

and he did as it was when he met juliette. this was something he regretted for way more than just being buried six feet beneath the dirt. but if amira wanted to party then he’d accompany her. no questions asked. speaking of her ...

taewon roared a laugh, visibly entertained, “where amira goes, so does my world,” he said it like it was an exaggeration but it wasn’t. “you should’ve known. you want to head out of here for a minute? i was actually trying to find her. i don’t know how she slips away this easily,” he was still smiling. “it’s good to be cared about by her, ya know?”

LOW FANTASY INDIE KING OF HELL AS DAMNED BY MY FAV BOY LEO @thereckoniing​

[christian-yu-universe-deactivat]

[thereckoniing]

thedivinepair​:

  Elation  bubbled  in  her  chest  as  his  sturdy  arms  cradled  her  and  the  shower  of  his  kisses  fell  like  stars  upon  her  cheeks.  Nonetheless,  it  wasn’t  enough  —   it  couldn’t  be  enough.  The  momentary  relief  was  like  sunshine  draping  across  her  body,  but  she  once  again  sank  under  icy  waters.

  Amira  could  sense  the  moment  fleeing  from  her  grasp  like  grains  of  sand  —   like  the  golden  crown  of  her  past  peeking  at  her  from  behind  a  corner.  She  knew  then  that  she’d  never  be  the  same  again.  It  ached  within  the  beating  symphony  of  her  heart,  the  crescendo  an  ascent  of  something  ghastly.

  She  fought  against  it  as  she  held  onto  him  tighter,  her  nails  digging  into  his  shoulders.  Terror  glimmered  in  those  wild  eyes  that  darted  to  take  in  the  destruction  around  her  —    the  ruination  she  was  the  cause  of.  The  cracked  glass  shattered  and  a  picture  of  horror  illustrated  across  her  face.

  “  What  did  I  do  ? ”  she  was  yelling  again,  desperate,  clambering.   “  Wonnie,  what  did  I  do  ?   I  —    I  didn’t  mean  to  do  this.  I  promise.  I  don’t  know  what  is  happening.  ”

  Though  another  thought  echoed  in  her  head  causing  a  festering  wound  to  reopen.  August,  she  had  to  find  him.   “  I  can’t  —    I  can’t  go,  Wonnie.  We  need  to  find  August,  he  could  be  somewhere  in  —    ”   the  scorched  trees,  struck  by  otherworldly  lightning.  She  attempted  to  land  on  her  feet  again,  resisting  his  help.   “  Oh  God,  no  —    he  could  be  here  somewhere.  I  can’t  let  anything  happen  to  him.  ”  

THE DULL THROB IN HIS CHEST felt like a fresh wound every passing second. yet the burning ache was always followed by a cold healing. amira’s arms were wrapped around him and all he wanted was to be her anchor, to soothe her, and to carry her away from this all. 

“i know, amira,” he couldn’t speak, his jaw tightening from the ache and fear and love. but he held her face in his hands again and guided those bright eyes to his. “you didn’t do anything,” it was a lie but he didn’t care. whatever she did, whatever she was capable of now didn’t matter as long as she was okay. “we’ll fix it. i’ll fix it.” he didn’t know if he could but he’d find a way. she kissed the top of her head, pushing her hair back. 

when it was her near him, the scent of her filling his lungs like divine roses, her touch like the petals, he was bound to forget everything else. and he did. the burned forest, the earthquake, and even august.  

however, her reminder brought a fresh pang of guilt as his heart grew heavier. he never knew when all the weight of the world would be lifted from his shoulders. he looked at her face, grief filling in his eyes in the shape of tears and then back at the scorched trees with a determined look that set his jaw. 

“i won’t let anything ever happen to august or you,” he glanced back at her again, “you’re sure he’s here? i’m only allowing you to come with me if you promise to piggy back ride this and not exert yourself.” he knew she wouldn’t listen, so he had to improvise. “come on. giddy up, princess,” he scooted down.
