Yuki Kajiura: Le Grand Retour
One listen for this one. The first time I heard this song was a somewhere around the early to mid-noughties as part of a flash animation. I’ve listened to it here and there since as I find it enjoyable enough. … Continue reading

Envy: Seimei
I wrote a really rough draft for this last week and planned to wrap it up a few days later but something else that I needed to take care of came up and so this (among other things) was delayed. … Continue reading
Kayo Dot: Blasphemy: A Prophecy
This one took two listens. I felt there wasn’t enough said after the first time around so I spent the second one filling out the parts I thought were lacking the most. The result is something that’s not necessarily good, … Continue reading

Five-Hundred Word Challenge 415: How my Mouth Feels at the Moment
