Fanfic Ask!

😜 🤡✏️ fanfic ask!

😜 Describe a current WIP without using character names. (Points if your followers guess who the fic is for.)

Just one scene - At a party where neither are drinking, CharA makes an effort to cook, but CharB takes over and CharA flirts with them and both have a nice time.

🤡 What’s the dumbest thing you’ve written?

I mean, Richard drawing on Flake's butt was pretty dumb :D

✏️ What is your fave fic from another writer?

We're going to be here all day if I have to pick just one, but a few lesser-known favorites are last of the gang to bleed out, My Girl., and Switch and Swap.

This video has a lot of legs in it! Not least the lead singer's!

No Big Silence - Rammstein warmup in Tallinn 2001

On press conference in Tallinn Paul and Flake were asked following:

How did you like warm-up band No Big Silence?

Flake: They’re really nice, I generally like this type of music.

Paul: I think their guitarist looks better than our guitarist (Flake measures the guitarist Paul with gaze and nods).  

(that last comments cracked me up, I can imagine them both with serious faces there agreeing how Kristo Kotkas was hot :D LOL!) 

Well i could not find a good picture of No Big Silence guitarist back in 2001, but he was a little devil with two ponytails and long coat sharing himself on stage between synths, guitar and backup vocals. 

 Last  Friday I danced myself to pieces with this song of theirs: 

attention @hoch-rot​ and @hwbswd​ in opening seconds of this video (and also later) we can take a closer look to the legs that were on PaulandFlake lap on this previously discussed afterparty-picture. 

Is it just me or is Blixa doing this?

Flake's podcast - Essen (Food)

FLAKE. Des Tastenfickers Podcast.

Flake ist der „Tastenficker“ von Rammstein und Autor von Bestellern. Seine Kenntnis ungewöhnlicher Musiktitel ist grenzenlos; seine Themen u

Flake loves to eat, and he also loves to talk, his wife told him "Don't talk with your mouth full" and that's why he skipped his idea of opening this show while eating (good boy Flake...but we already knew that 😊)

Small Till mention at abt 0:19 when Czech singer Karl Gott (lastname translates into english as 'God') phoned the band, Till answered and said to the others "Shut up, God is calling", Flake answered "Okay, you talk to God a bit, let's hear what he has to say" (this qualifies as a "dad-joke"...right?). Here's a pic of Mr. Gott with the band:

0h35 "Du bist was du isst" (You are what you eat)...ofcourse, a podcast about food wouldn't complete without Rammstein's 'Mein Teil' 🍽

1h01: Flake mentioned in Feeling B times he used to smoke on stage, but that's pretty inconvenient, especially as a keyboardplayer. He doesn't smoke anymore on stage, but he does occassionally take something to eat with him, a little snackpack, or some chocolate. But nobody should know, because no one wants a rock musician to be eating on stage... (we're not going to tell on him then.. 🍫)

At 1h18.30 mentions he knows this guy, won't mention any names, but it's a singer of a famous band, who if you ask him after eating "Did it taste good?" answers "Well, it was enough", some people appreciate the quantity, especially when it's a lot. Too bad he doesn't mention any names, isn't it....but what does he play right after that quote? 'Mehr' (More) by Rammstein, which starts with Till saying "Ich brauche vieles, und viel davon" (I need a lot, and a lot of it) 🤔 Are you thinking what i'm thinking? 😊

And while we are speculating: at 1h28 the talk turns to windsurfers and how supposedly they are really relaxed people, but in Flake's experience they are all but, either they are worrying that there is no wind, or when there is wind, they are worrying about having the wrong sail, wind is too hard etc. Flake can confirm that surfers are not relaxed. And here i'm thinking, who does Flaks know (that we know) that are avid surfers? Paul and Olli.... the most relaxed of the whole of Rammstein... (well, okay, maybe that's not a good comparison 😁).

All in all Flake loves to eat, and from every concert they did, he knows what he ate there 🍞🥞 his biggest weakness is cake, but there is no food he doesn't like 🍗🥗

More of my ramblings on Flake's podcast ramblings

Just to group them for myself, here's another PaulandFlake band: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjwyR1TSPeY

... Talking about PaulAndFlake's musical endeavors: Rammwiki says that Flake & Piet was Flake + his mysterious neighbor Piet, but here's what I found in Mix mir einen Drink:

Wenn gar niemand zu greifen war, machte ich eben mit Paul etwas. 1991 erschien unter den Namen Flake und Piet eine Kassette, die hieß »Goessel beinhart«. Abstrakt strukturierte Elektronik mit Titeln wie »Der Damenschneider« oder »Granatendub«. Ich habe mir die Kassette jetzt mal wieder angehört. Das ist wirklich harter Tobak. Junge, Junge, sage ich da nur.

Which I would (badly) translate as:

If no one else was available, I would do something with Paul. In 1991, a cassette was released under the name Flake und Piet, which was called "Goessel beinhart" ("Tough gosling"??). Abstractly structured electronics with titles such as "Der Damenschneider" ("The Tailor for Ladies") or "Granatendub" ("Grenades Dub"). I've listened to the cassette again lately. This is really tough stuff. Boy, boy, I'm just saying.

... From which I understand that Piet-the-neighbor is actually Paul. But I don't know for sure. Anyway, it sounds like a lot of fun.

I particularly love this picture. Olli is just lost in that suit, Richard looks so cheery, and Flake is so grumpy with his snacks. But mostly I like to imagine that there exists a simultaneous photo of Paul, grinning like a maniac, with Flake surly and washed-out in the foreground.

Young Oliver, Richard and Flake :)
