The Young Ones
Jul. 20th, 2025 08:25 ampoliphilo Terry invited us to the summer party at his care home. There was a buffet, there was entertainment. Had it not been raining we might have sat in the garden.
When I first started visiting care homes the preferred entertainment was the music of WWII. "Roll out the barrel", Vera Lynn and all that kind of thing. A little later it was Max Bygraves. Generation follows generation into senescence and the music changes accordingly. At our little party yesterday we had a Cliff Richard tribute act. By the time we reach late-period Beatles it'll be me sleeping through the fun in one of those fusty armchairs....
The singer conjured up Cliff quite well. He had the hair and the glasses- only he wasn't nearly as pretty and if he could reproduce the golden voice he wouldn't be playing care homes. He injected a little satire into the proceedings by insisting he was "Sir" Cliff.
And of course he sang this....
The young ones
Darling, we're the young ones
And the young ones
Shouldn't be afraid
To live, love
While the flame is strong
For we may not be
The young ones very long

"The Sex Pixies" is just a Good Name for a fair folk band
Jul. 20th, 2025 12:29 amjadelennoxif I were a fae of some sort in a punk band I would simply call my first album Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pixies.
I will not be taking questions at this time.

Challenge #5
Journaling prompt: Be a carnival barker for your favorite movie, book, or show (or any other of your choice - game, comic, anything else)! Write a post that showcases the best your chosen title has to offer and entices passersby to check it out.
Creative prompt: Write a fic or original story about a character reluctantly doing something they are hesitant about.
This time I did both. So barker Dana...you'd think I'd go for Hazbin Hotel my newest fandom but no, let me tell you about The Owl House. Yes this show ended prematurely but Disney allowed it to wrap it up. I know that there is a lot of bitter feelings between the creator and Disney to the point Dana Terrance doesn't want to even think about revisiting it or doing anything else with it which is a pity (and while I have no proof of it I do feel like DeSantis and the pressure Florida was putting on Disney at the time might have played a role)
This is not your typical Disney. Take our lead, Luz Noceda, a Dominican girl (Latinx), light brown skin and she's bisexual. We get portal fic as she's transported to the Boiling Isle. Season one is mostly Luz's adventures with King, a small dog like creature with a bone head (who has such a big role that I don't want to ruin if you haven't seen it) and Edalyn who gives us chronic illness rep and independent woman as she lives with her curse (the illness).
Luz meets Amity Blight (boom enemies to well not quite lovers, they're 13 and this is disney). Amity brings in intelligence, parental neglect/abuse and our lesbian rep. Luz befriends first Willow Park (perhaps in her way the strongest of them and our pansexual rep and she's raised by two dads) and Gus (Black main character) Eda's sister, Lilith goes from enemy to friend (and is our Ace rep) and Eda's former/future lover Raine is our non-binary character.
We also have a child soldier, Hunter (another enemy to friend an bi rep) along with his 'uncle' Emperor Belos one of the best drawn villain I've seen in a long time.
So yes incredibly queer animation meant for young teens out of Disney of all things. I love this animation so much.
Now my story is very rough (sorry) and not what I thought I would do. What I did was find my beginning for the next story in my Husk Overlord series all that glitters. It will become the story Husk and Angel become lovers but I wanted more than an pwp and couldn't find my story. But the idea that Angel doesn't want to show his feet is canon and I thought this could be what gives me the story, someone it out to hurt Angel so yay for that.
Anyhow, this would be the opening scene of a much longer work but here you go. It has blood/injury, swears and references to Angel as a sex worker and Angel's past sexual abuse at Valentino's hands (nothing graphic but it's probably clear what he means)
