if you could pick 3 beverages for the rest of your life (water not included), what would they be? what are your 3 favorite books? what does optimist fear feel like for you? when is eye contact curiosity and when is it eye fucking? create a perfume aesthetic (set a scene! optional, pick some scent notes). what is an ideal cozy night for you? do you like houseplants?

Ooooh okay. Anon you want to know it all and I will DELIVER! 🫡

First is so hard because I LOVE a tasty beverage. For three just regular beverages I will go as follows: Iced dunkalatte, cherry limeade, and redbull and cream. These will sustain me and I will be happy if lacking in variety.

Three favorite books: The shining (I have listened to it on audiobook so many times it’s sickening), silence of the lambs, and due to recency bias I am going Gone Girl because that’s the most recent for me and it ATE!!!!!

I’m not sure what optimist fear is hold up a second I gotta google something. OH! Okay! Optimist fear presents itself to me as major self sabotage and procrastination. When I’m trying to pursue something and I’m really scared of the repercussions of success or also the potential of failure I’ll feel very very low motivation and not end up following through.

As for the eye contact/eye fucking debate it depends on the eye contact for sure. Like if you look a person over and then make eye contact? You are having sex. You are undressed. If you are staring at a person with that level of spark in the eye? It is eye FUCKING. But if it’s just listening in a conversation or regular/relevant? That’s just eye contact.

Ideal perfume is a day out in the sun. Like when you’re really tired after spending a day out with your friends in nature in the heat and the sunshine. It smells like sunscreen and oranges and salt and warmth and something light and natural and breezy. Maybe even some undertones of grass.

Ideal cozy night is a pretty common type of night for me actually!! It’s just chilling with my roommates watching tv and having a nice little drink. Nothing fancy or crazy just relaxing with my best friends and having a good chill time :)

Love houseplants! Wish I took better care of them. I have one right now that’s living though actually it’s a pitcher plant and I care deeply for it !! The Venus fly trap I got with it died but I believe that wasn’t my fault it was already on its way before I got it.

controversial writing tip

very super important, serious questions. In a future aspen/sebastian with a child situation, who gets the baby to say their first word?

Okay this one is so tough

They’re BOTH so competitive. So it’s absolutely a fight to the death to get baby to say mama or dada. Like every waking moment they’re battling it out for the win. ESPECIALLY when they get baby alone they’re doing some coaching. They know it won’t count if baby says it while they’re alone, but they figure if they can get one word they’ll be able to get it again.

And then because their baby would be stubborn as shit. They’d be in a moment where their guard is down. And baby would say “kitty!” And point at Honey. They would both lose to Honey.

Color practice with Shane 😟

Elliott's face going uncontrollably red when he's flustered is my favourite thing ever. Like, he's great with words and picking himself up when he's flustered, but he's outed so easily by his blush.

I figure he hopes you'll be too embarrassed by his words to look at him, because almost immediately when you do you can see the blush over his nose and cheeks, plus his ears turning bright red.

UGGGgHhhhhhh YES

And I feel like he’s not used to being flustered too, y’know? Moving to Pelican Town to write his book is such a shift in lifestyle for him. I see him as being pretty controlled in his “old life,” but undergoing a rapid evolution as he pursues his passions and comes to understand himself creatively. So there are all of these New Feelings (or at least feelings he hasn’t had for a good long while), esp where farmer is involved… So yes, adorably blushy man.

like, okay, consent does literally just mean agree. which is what enables this little rhetorical trick. because there's all this cultural emphasis on sexual consent, which is just expressed as consent, a lot of phrases whose intended meanings are "rape is bad" can be taken literally to mean "i should get to agree to everything that happens in my vicinity."
