Chapter Text

Milan: I don’t mean to be rude—
Filip: Yet, sadly, accidental rudeness occurs alarmingly often.

_____________________________________________________________

Ilija, when Marko walks in: Oh, hey, I’m just making pizza.
Ilija: *accidentally smacks Milan in the face with the baking sheet*

________________________________________________________________

*The Squad is eating dinner*
Milan: Can you pass the salt?
Ilija: *throws Marko across the table*

____________________________________________________

Milan, holding an antique bottle: Is this whiskey or perfume?
Filip: *grabs and chugs the entire bottle*
Filip:
Filip: It’s perfume.

_________________________________________________________

Marko: It’s time to turn this into a real business.
Milan: What do you mean? Like, carry a briefcase, and wear a tie, and pay taxes?
Filip: Wait, have you not been paying your taxes?
Ilija: I handle our accounting.

___________________________________________________________

Ilija: Good morning!
Marko, checking his watch: Correct.

___________________________________________________________

Marko: I’m tired.
Milan: You slept for three hours last night! Why are you surprised?!
Marko: I’m not surprised. I just wanted to complain about it.

_________________________________________________________________

Ilija: If I fall down these stairs, I’m just going to lay down and accept my fate.

__________________________________________________________________________

Ilija: Honestly, I’m just as confused as you are.

___________________________________________________________________

Filip: Where’s my chair?
Milan: Ilija broke it over Marko’s back while they were wrestling.
Marko: Correction, Ilija was wrestling. I was eating soup.

________________________________________________________________

Milan: You are now one day closer to eating your next plate of nachos.
Ilija: That’s the most hopeful thing I’ve ever heard.
Filip: But what if I die tomorrow and never eat any nachos?
Marko: Then tomorrow is nacho lucky day.

____________________________________________________________________

Milan: Words ending in 'ie' just sound so adorable. Like cutie, sweetie, cookie-
Ilija: Eyy, homie!
Marko: But then there’s cootie...
Filip: Die.

[A/N - Bambie.]

___________________________________________________________________________

Milan: So what, now I’m just supposed to do everything that Ilija does? What if he jumps off a cliff?
Filip: If Ilija were to jump off a cliff, he would have done his due diligence regarding the height of the cliff, the depth of the water, and the angle of entry. So yes, if you see Ilija jump off a cliff, by all means, jump off a cliff.
Milan: You jump off a cliff.
Filip: Gladly, provided Ilija did first.

___________________________________________________________________________________

Filip: It’s called cauliflower, not ghost broccoli.

Marko: Please, enough with the soup puns!
Ilija: Wow, you’re soup-per mean.
Marko: STOP!
*one hour later*
Marko: It’s fucking tacos?!?!?!

______________________________________________________________

Filip: A mosquito tried to bite me and I slapped it and killed it.
Filip: And I started thinking.
Filip: Like, it was just trying to get food.
Filip: What if I went to the fridge and it just slammed the door shut and snapped my neck?
Ilija: Are you ok?

____________________________________________________________________

Ilija: I’ve been waiting for this day-
Ilija: Stop skipping my dialogue-
Ilija: Seriously, stop-
Ilija: MOTHER FU-

Notes:

IQ-verse NeonoeN are essentially the same level as IQ-verse 5MP. And that level is just drunk.

Today I was very grateful I can unshuffle playlists and albums on Spotify on my laptop. I can't deal with Värttinä’s albums not being in order, being massively used to listening to the CDs in the car for at least 7 years, probably more. And given that, and using the lyrics book, I've known the lyrics really well for a long time as well.

I’ve been thinking of making a book of oneshots set in the IQ-verse (and then putting them through GT after).

The BaD universe Megara lore oneshot is now officially called Arrástrame Al Infierno. I had 3 title options, and the others were a line from Somos Aire (the only one I found that actually mentions Hell in the lyrics) and also a line from Back To Life. But this was the best option because it’s also just the title of a Megara song (coincidentally from the same album).

I’m going to miss the 2024 season ESC social media icon. Mainly for YT, given I see it every day because I’m subscribed to the channel. The new one feels weird. I’m also just really used to the bright white background. I don’t actually remember what the other ones looked like, not even 2023.

If there are any ESC years I can’t let go of, it’s 2023 and 2024. Those were clearly two of the best in terms of songs (the 2023 contest was awesome anyway, the 2024 one was a disaster, to put it lightly).

I will just think of ESC 2024 and all the contests until they go back to yearly slogans as having no slogan. United By Music is 2023.

That said, I am fed up of all the ‘Divided by Music’ things. Yes, I also agree they quickly undermined the slogan after it became permanent. That doesn’t mean you need to be that annoying about it.

Because I like being insanely pedantic, when I tagged Jerry and Kaleen in BaD and WITFITM (and also Kaleen in ITBINMTSS and TCIYML), I used their actual names, even though the established tags don’t, they just have ‘musician’ and ‘Austrian musician’ respectively in brackets. This now means that if you go on that thing where you can see variations and/or child tags for tags, Kaleen has two variations from mind, and they’re literally both the same, ie Marie-Sophie Kreissl | Kaleen.

Remembered the precise reason why I didn’t want to make the platonic Teylena tag: it was to avoid using this | and I don’t know why (though it is for the better, the ITBINMTSS-verse would be very different, and possibly wouldn’t exist (the extended universe, not the fic), and TCIYML definitely wouldn’t exist. Thank god for me avoiding |.

There was one point this morning/afternoon where I had Hoia in my head, despite not listening to Hoia yet at that point. And I was doing little dancing in my almost empty classroom.

I really hate being tired.
