Enjoy

-

Song: EVIL by Melanie Martinez.
(With some slight adjustments to the lyrics to avoid as much repeating and make it more accurate to characters in certain places)
Characters: Jusepe, Kody, Lucia, and Garvin.
Context:
Just the group breaking apart as members get kicked out and also checking in on how they’re doing now, actually. Oh, and some more lore for Lucia, Kody, and Jusepe just in general. Fun things.
*~*~*~*
*We actually start near the beginning of AFCS. Funnily enough, the members that got kicked out by Giles all eventually found each other again and started helping each other out. Really, it was more Jusepe finding Kody after getting kicked out and then the two of them accidentally crossing paths with Lucia about a year later. By then, Jusepe and Kody are actually dating too. It’s pretty great. They’ve mostly settled into just a couple of different cities that they go back and forth between. Unfortunately, they also end up accidentally crossing paths with Giles, which sucks. But literally none of them are taking his shit anymore so… Crisis easily avoided. Anyways, the three are currently staying in a warehouse on the edge of one of the cities they travel between.*
Jusepe, about Giles, you can have some more hints at some past stuff, mostly to himself, proud of the three basically telling Giles to fuck off, as he walks into the room Lucia and Kody are in; “You called the other day, I stayed away. I left your shit on read four times today. And it felt like bliss, used to miss your kiss… Now I'm hop-skip jumping over narcissists, throwing all your stuff into the abyss. Now the role is reversed and told you I'm a switch. How you like my spit? That's for all the piss that you left me in.”
Kody, completely different from when he was part of the group, grinning and sitting at a table, talking to Lucia, gesturing to his horns, also feeling incredibly proud of how they dealt with Giles; “See, the horns on my head, they're from goddesses.”
Lucia, raising an eyebrow at Kody, also grinning, sitting across from Kody, sarcastically amused; “Goddesses?”
Kody, nodding, grinning and equally sarcastically amused; “On God.”
*Switching it back for some lines from when Kody got kicked out and when Jusepe got kicked out.*
Kody, to Giles, the last argument they had before Kody got kicked out, Kody had always been more explosive, less likely to just take Giles’ shitty behavior; “No, I never knew what it meant— What it meant to be content with you! Everything I expressed, I professed, it never quite made it through!”
Jusepe, to Giles, the last argument they had before Jusepe got kicked out, Jusepe meanwhile had always rationalized it to an insane degree, though that might be because of how he also dealt with the treatment Giles gave whenever it was only him and one other person; “Said it's all in my head— All in my head? Whenever I spoke my truth? No, I won't defend you to all our friends. This time, I refuse.”
Kody, continuing his last line; “If you bite my hand again— I will never feed you! You can call me evil.”
Jusepe, continuing his last line; “Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend.”
Kody, again continuing his last line; “I won't be mistreated! Please call me conceited.”
Jusepe, again continuing his last line; “Took me way too long to put this to bed. Loving you was lethal, guess that makes me evil.”
*And now we switch quite a bit back for more Lucia lore for before she joined, while she was part of it, and when she got kicked out. *
Lucia, the last conversation she had with her mother before she left and joined the group; “Remember when you smiled right to my face? As all my little tears of oxalate… They made a shape, revealed a snake. Now I'm stop-drop rolling over all your jokes. Every time you tell a lie I'm praying that you choke. Should've listened to the signs and the horoscopes. Hope you never cope, hope you slip on soap— Crack your head like an egg, wanna see the yolk— You are such a hoax!”
Lucia, to Garvin during one of those late night rambles while traveling, about her mother; “No, I never knew what it meant— What it meant to be content with her. Everything I expressed, I professed, it never quite made it through.”
Lucia, to Giles, the last conversation/argument they had before she was kicked out; “Said it's all in my head— All in my head? Whenever I spoke my truth? No, I won't defend you to my only friend! This time, I refuse!”
Lucia, right after having been left/kicked out, somewhat confused but overall also kind of glad; “If you bite my hand again… I will never feed you, you can call me evil. Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend… I won't be mistreated, please call me conceited. Took me way too long to put this to bed. Loving you was lethal, guess that makes me evil.”
*And finally, we get to Garvin a bit before leaving Giles, when he leaves Giles, and also a little after.*
Garvin, considering leaving Giles and turning the idea over in his head; “If you bite my hand again, I will never feed you… You can call me evil. Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend… I won't be mistreated, please call me conceited. Took me way too long to put this to bed… Loving you was lethal, guess that makes me evil.”
Garvin, towards Giles, while leaving him behind; “If you bite my hand again, I will never feed you. You can call me evil. Take it to the grave if you wanna play pretend! I won't be mistreated, please call me conceited. Took me way too long to put this to bed… Loving you was lethal, guess that makes me evil.”
Garvin, basically right after having left Giles behind, more or less accepting what he’d just done; “Loving you was lethal… Guess that makes me evil.”

Here's a small hint for you about Polaris Chat.

It takes place during July one year.

The song was amazing, I loved it!

-

Ooo, I'm intrigued :)

Glad you liked the sing thing-

Still working on Polaris Chat so here's Running for the Gates instead haha lol

-

Song: Running for the Gates by Marissa Sendejas.
(With some slight adjustments to the lyrics to avoid as much repeating and make it more accurate to characters in certain places)
Characters: Garvin.
Context:
To be completely honest, this is just some more of how Garvin was while part of the repetitive nickname gang haha. So… Similar to Half Life and Dead-Bird.
*~*~*~*
*Again, this is really just off handed bits of Garvin lore for the repetitive nickname gang because I have so much lore and I love to share lore. Curse my love of fleshing character things out to insane degrees.*
Garvin, more or less where he’s at before joining the group; “My head is full of other people’s complaints…”
Garvin, referring somewhat to one of the ways he made money while with the group as I mentioned all the way back in My Alcoholic Friends, most specifically the ones that didn’t go how he wanted; “I’m running through the door now— Running through the door now— Running for the gates. And I can only take so much…”
Garvin, more or less where he’s at by the time Lucia joins; “Inhale, exhale. Grab your shovel, grab your pail. Bury them thoughts down till they’re ten feet underground.”
Garvin, and where he’s at by the time Kody gets kicked out; “Inhale, exhale… Grab your shovel, grab your pail. Bury them thoughts down till they’re ten feet underground…”
Garvin, somewhat mocking people that don’t have to do the things the group does; “‘Cause it’s ‘bitch, bitch, bitch, complain, complain, complain… Wish upon a shooting star to make the money rain.’”
Garvin, somewhat referring to the people he was just mocking and somewhat referring to Giles by the time it’s just Lucia, Giles, and himself; “They’ll never be satisfied. They’ll never be gratified..”
Garvin, again somewhat mocking people, yay resentment and envy; “‘Bitch, bitch, bitch, complain, complain, complain… Wish upon a shooting star to make the money rain.’”
Garvin, referring to the people he’s mocking, still mocking them to hide the envy that’s actually there; “The more you have, the more you want.”
Garvin, referring to Giles by the time it’s just the two of them; “The more you have, the more you want…”
Garvin, referring to Lucia and what tends to happen to people in the type of life the group lives; “Well, there’s people dodging bullets while you’re dancing in your dreams.. And no one hears their silent whispers, no one hears their screams.”
Garvin, still somewhat referring to Lucia, more or less where he is by the time he leaves Giles, yay to resentment and envy, and yay to accepting he’s most likely eventually dying on the streets; “There’s people dodging bullets while you’re dancing in your dreams. No one hears our silent whispers.. No one hears our bloody screams…”

I absolutely love the song! :)

Yay, very fun-

Have some audios I keep watching/hearing and think would totally work.

-

Garvin; "You know what? There's times in life where you just have to sit back and go- 'Alright, you know, I'm proud of myself.'"

Devery; "Yeah... Is this one of those times?"

Garvin, laughing; "No..."

-

Akira; "Aye, yo, the pizza's here!"

Garvin, running and immediately falling down stairs to get down; "Oh!"

-

Garvin; "I was left unsupervised and I think, perhaps, I should not have been."

-

Garvin; "I swallowed shampoo, probably gonna die... It smelled like fruit, that was a lie. Called the number on the bottle, spoke to a guy. He said, 'Vomit!' I said, 'Why??' He said, 'Poison!' I said, 'Goodbye.' I swallowed shampoo!-"

-

Garvin; "Gall said if I take two ibuprofen, my headache will be gone in an hour... I'm getting better at math, so I know that if I finish the bottle, it will be gone in a minute."

I love all of those, lmaooo

As you should lmao

Now enjoy Dead Sea!

-

Song: Dead Sea by The Lumineers.
(With some slight adjustments to the lyrics to avoid as much repeating and make it more accurate to characters in certain places)
Characters: Garvin.
Context:
Was very excited to do this one too. Garvin’s just having conversations with the polyship, and a guest appearance of a conversation with Devery too. Did you know that it’s practically impossible to sink in the Dead Sea? It has so much salt in it that you just naturally float. Thought it’d be a nice song for the guy with a ton of trauma concerning water and drowning.
*~*~*~*
*Again, just some potential conversations I could totally understand happening with the polyship. And one with Devery.*
Garvin, during a conversation with Ingall, probably, referring to when he had to leave the modern day pirates and some stuff that came after; “I stood alone, upon the platform in vain.. Those damned pirates, they were playing me shanty’s in the rain… With open doors and manual locks, in fast food parking lots.”
Garvin, during a conversation with Akira, probably, referring to leaving the repetitive nickname gang, a little reminder that other than ‘Gigi’, Giles had also been nicknamed the Beast, gee wonder why; “I headed West, I was a man on the move. The Beast had lied to me, I needed the truth.. Oh, I need somebody– I needed someone I could trust.”
Garvin, during a conversation with Nico about the polyship, probably, though it also could probably be Ingall or Revan he’s talking to; “You don't gamble… But if you did, would you bet on us?”
Garvin, probably to the polyship, and probably at least somewhat confused and also kind of amused; “Like the Dead Sea… You told me I was like the Dead Sea. You'll never sink when you are with me? Oh love, like the Dead Sea… Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea… The finest words you ever said to me. Honey, can't you see? I was born to be.. Be your Dead Sea.”
Garvin, during a conversation with Akira, probably, once again referring to the repetitive nickname gang; “I told you I was good at running away… Domestic life, it never suited me like a suitcase. I left with just the clothes on my back… I took the rest when they took a nap.”
Garvin, that guest conversation with Devery I mentioned; “Yes, there are times we live for somebody else… Your father died and you decided to live it for yourself, you felt.. You just felt it was time… And I'm glad, ‘cause you with cats, that's just not right.”
Garvin, probably to the polyship again, also probably at least a little less confused than the last time; “Like the Dead Sea… You told me I was like the Dead Sea. You'll never sink when you are with me. Oh love, I'm your Dead Sea… Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea.. The nicest words you ever said to me. Honey, can't you see? I was born to be… Be your dead sea.”
Garvin, probably also just to the polyship as a whole again; “I’ve been down, I've been defeated… You're the message, I will heed it.”
Garvin, honestly, this just has some good potential for Ingall and him getting together, haha; “Would you stay with… Would you stay the night?”
Garvin, do I have plans of Revan finding out about the banjo Garvin used to have and finding it/buying it for him, yes, yes I do, and the vibes of this part kind of fit for the reaction he has; “Dead Sea… Told me I was like the Dead Sea… You’ll never sink when you are with me.. Oh love, I'm your Dead Sea..”
Garvin, the image of him playing the banjo for the polyship will not leave for this bit so, yeah; “Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea. The nicest words you ever said to me. Honey, can't you see? I was born to be… Be your Dead Sea.”

I love that song! And I love the image of Garvin playing the banjo for the rest of the polyship, adorable

Glad you liked it

There's only Snap Out Of It left
