I don't know how to explain this. Whatever happens to your brainwave state when it alters and shifts as you drift into sleep... I was drifting and Death Note style voice (keep in mind, I don't really watch this show often) popped into my head and showed me a moment from when I was 16 and my youth pastor came to see me in the hospital after trying to take every pill in my house to try to unalive myself. The voice is saying, "I'm a demon. I've known you since this point. He knew too, he just didn't want to say anything. We're here to have fun forever." This wasn't my voice. This wasn't my subconscious. This sounds pretty corny and cringe like disgruntled teenager's reddit post, but I'm just trying to recall this montage as sequentially as it happened. It sounds like the gritty backstory for a really shitty marvel movie.

This youth pastor told me that I was saying NO in an otherworldly voice getting my stomach pumped at the time. This is a real life thing that happened. Did I come into the world this way? How does this work karmically? I could've picked up a dark passenger. Maybe it can only talk to me in that natural altered brain wave state. It sounded calm like Death Note. It was alarming and calming. The fact that it was calming is what freaked me out. Dude, I don't know where I came from - none of us do really. But I had some milestones of existentialism at early ages and when I was a teenager I was really pissed off that I was incarnated. Really pissed off that I had to be here. Like I was here to crash a party.

Is this news to me as a possibility? Or motivation to make things as good as I can possibly make them. Demons torment. This one sounded comforting. There's not exactly a guidebook to consult for something like this. Especially not in the south.

What would Jung say? Even he supposedly had his fair share of occult-like experiences - being inhabited from forces of another plane ✨ (you're going to be all like, 'stoppp trying to normalize daemons and make them sound cool like you do with beer when you lie to yourself fammmm). I've seen some crazy stuff in your eyes too - so you were probably waiting for me to come to this realization too. The demon is probably pleased that I have enough willpower to take care of myself rn). I'm going to get some ultimate perspective with the lifestyle discipline.

"You're not going through it, it's going through you

And once it's all gone, in will come the new you

With a different perspective, from the same point of view

Fully unaffected by the old truth you once knew

Connected at the roots to the trunk to the branches

To the leaves and the way they fly away in wind dances

A frantic seesaw; free-fall in midair that represents

The floating folly of us all being here

We are complicated creatures, huh?"

Anything or anyone that tries to take the wheel from you in your life is not your friend tho. Demons are deceptive. They might be here to have fun and have a good time, but they're here to use your temple for their bidding while you sit idle in the passenger seat and peace TF out. I'm the perfect host. Mental illness and wrecked with insecurities to feed on.

I'm going to question everything for a little while.

[pikahlua]

Katsuki just realized that Izuku just realized AFO is an idiot and it’s hilarious because Dabi knows it too but rather than say anything he’s gonna be a petty fucker, sit back, and watch *Can’t Stop Twinkling* fucking destroy AFO and I will never stop laughing about it: A Picture-Book Essay

Oh my fucking god you guys I don’t think any of us are ready for this-

We just got chapter 337 spoilers, but before I had even finished translating them I was laughing my fucking ass off.

Izuku: Please take this hand, Aoyama-kun. Izuku, in flashback: That’s why at least if I leave— Katsuki, thinking: I get it…Deku!!

Read Katsuki’s thoughts as:

Because the cosmic irony at play here is ASTOUNDING and I am here for it.

Okay so remember how AFO was a dumbass and said his plan out loud before attacking Star, dooming him to fail spectacularly?

He’s still doing it, fammmm.

Dabi: Friends, huh…… Dabi: That...won’t it become bad for us if he’s caught? AFO: It won’t.

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?

AFO: “You–what would you do if a 100 yen lighter wouldn’t ignite? AFO: I’ll be happy if they succeed AFO: If it doesn’t work, I’d say, ‘Aah, so it didn’t work?’ and be disappointed AFO: and just think about the next route.

AFO assumes that when Dabi says “it’ll be bad for us if he's caught,” he means they’ll lose a valuable pawn, that somehow Aoyama is key to their plan and his capture would set them back. And so AFO assures Dabi he has plenty of backup routes to take if Aoyama fails.

BUT THAT’S NOT WHAT DABI MEANS AND IT APPARENTLY JUST FLEW OVER AFO’S HEAD.

AFO: They’re nothing but tools to use and throw away.” (Note: “Disposable” can be another reading of “use and throw away.”) Dabi (I think): If you enjoy this place even a little, you’re millions of years old

(If that’s Dabi talking there, I think he’s just being antsy about still being stuck in the cave.)

AFO thinks of people as tools. He doesn’t think of them as agents. He doesn’t realize they are VARIABLES that can affect his plans!

But Izuku fucking realizes it.

Izuku: Because you can still become a hero!!

He’s got something in mind here.

Did you find this exposition dump in chapter 336 wordy and boring as hell? Good; that was probably by design, so you wouldn’t notice.

What are the heroes’ three problems in this war right now?

They don’t know where AFO is

Shigaraki is probably gonna be even stronger next time they fight him, and they were crushed by him last time

AFO gets to choose when the fight starts--the heroes can’t strike preemptively

Except maybe now they can cross off numbers 1 & 3...

The above panel is what Katsuki is remembering on the final page of chapter 337. It’s the panel that comes immediately after the aforementioned expo-dump. Note that Izuku’s goal is to “choose how to enter this fight hopefully in a way that steers it in our favor.” THIS IS KEY!

Because this is what comes immediately after:

Izuku wants to go look for Aoyama.

It’s very possible Izuku already suspects Aoyama of being the traitor at this point.

Let me spell it out for you:

Izuku has just learned Aoyama cannot be “exploded” by AFO via his bestowed quirk.

Tsukauchi: The transfer was around 10 years ago…then it’s safe now Tsukauchi: It seems there’s no explosion mechanism in case of betrayal like with Nagant, but…

He knows (or will soon know) what AFO’s orders were to Aoyama.

Aoyama, thinking: For everyone’s sake, [sacrificing] yourself… AFO, in a flashback: Invite Izuku Midoriya, who returned to UA, to [go somewhere] alone [with you]

And after hearing of how hopeless the Aoyama family is, how they’re utterly doomed no matter what they do, Izuku lays out via motivational speech how yes, Aoyama is a hero at heart, but also he is such a damn good actor that he was able to send Izuku an SOS message and AFO didn’t notice--because if AFO did notice he would have killed Aoyama’s family back then!

Izuku: That’s wrong, isn’t it…!? That…I didn’t notice…!! That was an SOS…! Because without even keeping up appearances, you’re crying…[but not] because you couldn’t do as AFO said, isn’t that it!? Even though her heart was used by AFO… I know of a hero who didn’t surrender everything! Her heart was just crushed!! All Might: Young Midoriya…! Izuku, thinking: Maybe something would have changed if I had known Izuku: If you commit a crime, it’s not like you’re a villain for your entire life!

Pictured above is All Might totally catching onto Izuku’s idea.

AFO underestimates people. All Might chastises AFO’s foolishness in underestimating class 1-A as recently as chapter 335:

AFO underestimates Yuuga Aoyama.

But Dabi doesn’t. That’s what Dabi means at the beginning of the chapter. “Hey ballsac-face, if Aoyama gets caught, won’t it be bad for us if he TURNS ON US?”

Because Dabi fucking knows how dumb it is to ignore Yuuga Aoyama when it fucking matters.

A few moments later...

But instead of saying anything, Dabi seems like maybe he’s gonna let it ride. And if he does, it’s probably because AFO insulted him by saying he has no friends and no one likes him (which is hilariously inaccurate, but then I’m not convinced AFO actually knows what the word “friend” means).

“Haha Dabi you loser! Forever alone! Am I using that meme right?” - AFO, probably

tl;dr

If you haven’t put it together yourself yet, Izuku is gonna ask Aoyama to go full triple agent. They’re gonna pretend to follow whatever order AFO gave Aoyama, probably “let” Izuku get kidnapped or some shit, and thus get the fucking drop on AFO because he didn’t plan for the sheer pettiness of teenagers on every side of this war. Oh, and also because no one takes Aoyama seriously and that’s a mistake.

[kirishimas-manly-eyeliner]

what would online classes with Kaminari be like?

a/n: ahhhh i’m glad you asked! i love writing for this lightning bby so i gotchu, i added sero because he needs some love <3

pairings: denki kaminari, hanta sero x gn!reader

ONLINE CLASSES WITH HANTA SERO AND DENKI KAMINARI

⚡ DENKI KAMINARI  - *turns mic on, insert kaminari making moaning sounds*

let’s be real for a second, ‘kay? NO ONE LIKES ONLINE CLASSES

I DON’T KNOW A SINGLE PERSON WHO DOES

HOHO AND KAMINARI

OH NO

he despises them

he’s that kid to have the weirdest virtual backgrounds and the one to be spamming the chat so that your teacher has to disable it

he’s the kid who has his video off and legitimately cannot focus for the heck of it, but he’s really responsive in breakout rooms

but hey! at least online classes with kaminari are NEVER boring

if you turn your mic on, he can and will start moaning into it while you’re in class

if you’re trying to get your homework, he’ll try to read every single word on your papers

if you’re trying to turn on your video, he can and will pop into the room and start waving in the background

but even though he might be annoying, he’s also such a sweetheart🥺

kaminari’ll probably also be taking extra classes in front of you or next to you, so your devices are next to each other

he’ll hold your hand under the table 🥺🥺🥺

and it’s SO cute when he swings his feet back and forth in the chair like a lil’ baby and he expects you to kick back oml

he’s a weird kid but he loves you so much it’s nearly impossible to explain in words

kaminari probably doesn’t understand most materials, so he’ll definitely be that kid looking in confusion in class and going “...what the f?” 😟

he’ll text you during class, even though you guys are right next to each other how confused he 

⚡lightning mcking: WHAT THE FOCK IS GOING ON

lightning mcoverlord: ?? kaminari, love, you’re supposed to be paying attention

⚡lightning mcking: can we go to Mcdonalds after this???

lightning mcoverlord: if we go to Mcdonalds, will you finally buckle down and do your work?

⚡lightning mcking: WAS THAT A VINE REFERENCE-

and whenever he sees you stressed because of assignments, don’t worry

...

THE BTCH IS CRYING WITH YOU

HE’S SOBBING NEXT TO YOU GOIN LIKE “TF IS GOING ON BABE”

you two will both be sobbing, shaking your heads and going “i don’t know i literally don’t know-”

if he sees that you really do need comfort though, he’ll get you a hoodie and wrap his arms around you and kiss your forehead. “you’re really smart, ya know that?”

“hey, celebrate the small things! at least you got me, and i’m the handsomest all around. come on, let’s go to mCDONAAALDS”

A Child™

but really, you make him feel like he’s on top of the world. he adores you. please don’t let him go.

🖭 HANTA SERO - “you really gotta stop rehearsing saying the word here.”

EVERYONE SHUT UP I LOVE HIM

on the days that you don’t want to get up from your bed to class, he’ll be the one to drag you off your bed by the foot

“come on! it’s time to get up!”

“mmm, five more minutes..”

“GET UP SWEETIE-”

he’s definitely going to be really patient with you though 🥺

he understands the days where you’re burnt-out or just really tired, so he’ll first kiss your knuckles and tell you, “hey! it’s another good day to test your limits. if you made through yesterday and all your worst days, i just know you can make it today. cooome on baby. let’s go.”

HE WILL SING TO YOU IN SPANISH IN THE MORNING✨✨

he’s such a romantic 

expect sero to make you breakfast and put a not there on the days he’s busy on how much he loves you 🥺<3

“good morning, my love! today’s gonna be a good day, and i’m right here for everything :D”

when you’re in online school and he’s working elsewhere, he’ll video call you

every single break without fail and send you memes

a LOT OF MEMES

A LOT OF MEMES THAT JUST DON’T MAKE SENSE

but he really does want to brighten your day in anyway possible oml

OKAY BUT LITERALLY BOYFRIEND MATERIAL

he’s sweet, caring, funny, and GOOD LOOKING? LIKE COME GET Y’ALLS JUICE WTF

sero also makes sure that whenever you’re stressed, he gets you a glass of water and ruffles your hair

“you’re gonna be just fine. let’s take a break after class together, okay?you want me to doordash you some food? yeah, let’s do it, you look like you need it babe. coooome on. leeet’s go!”

he also likes playing with you hair and OH MY GOLLY

THE WAY HIS EYES SPARKLE

WHEN HE FEELS HOW SMOOTH IT IS

IT’S NOT EVEN FUNNY IT’S FORKIN’ ADORABLE AND HE’S JUST IN AWE 🥺🥺🥺

in conclusion, hanta sero and denki kaminari are the best boyfriends in the galaxy. please give them some love.

A Few of My Favourite Things | 2018

Hey People of Earth!

So it happens to be December 31st, AKA, the last day of the year, AKA another year has gone by, and I’m back to share a couple favourite things I found in these last twelve months. 2017 has been an insane, but relatively good year. Regardless of the bumps in the road, I had a pretty great time, and I’m excited to see what 2018 brings! This blog truly grew this year, and for that, I’m eternally grateful for you guys... Here’s to another year!

Like last year, I’ll be discussing a few of my favourite things I’ve come across throughout 2017. This post will be sectioned off in four categories: MUSIC, FILMS, BOOKS and WRITING.

I listened to so much amazing music this year, and I’m so stoked to formally share the lovely artists I’ve acquainted with in 2017.

I’ll be listing these in the order in which I found them this year, for the sake of also keeping a timeline!

1. First Impressions of Earth by The Strokes

Genre: Garage/alternative rock

This albummmm. <3 I started listening to this album at the very beginning of the year, and I’m so happy I did. The Strokes is my favourite band, and FIOE is definitely my favourite work they’ve put out so far (head to head with Room On Fire). What a perfect way to start the year.

If you like: Alternative rock, great lyrics, AMAZZZING instruments, the sickest of all sick guitar solos, and grungy vocals, this album is the way to go

Favourites off this album are: Ize of the World (my favourite song ever), Razorblade, Electricityscape (though the entire album is my favourite lol)

2. ÷ by Ed Sheeran

Genre: Pop

This album was worth the wait, as it quickly became a favourite. If you were here in the 2015 days, you’d have gone through my *I love Ed Sheeran above everything in the entire world* phase (actually not a phase ha). Though my music tastes have changed a lot since I started listening to Ed years ago, his music is like coming home.

If you like: Pop with folky vibes, awesome music you can dance and sing to, pop music that is super fresh and cute but powerful vocals, here you goooo.

Favourites off this album: Barcelona, Dive, Shape Of You, New Man, Eraser

3. Light Upon the Lake by Whitney

Genre: Indie rock tho I would say alt country with psychedelic pop vibes ft. some indie works

OH BOY what an amazing find this was. This album is literal gold. My mom loves this album. ‘Tis mom approved. I’m really excited for another Whitney release.

If you like: Really chill music you listen to on early morning train rides, unique, soft male vocals with blessed guitar riffs and trumpet stuff, this is my go to.

Favourites: No Woman, Polly, Golden Days

4. Angles by the Strokes

Genre: Alternative rock with some new wave vibes maybe?

This was my final album endeavor in The Strokes’ discography, and oh boi it did not disappoint. Some of the songs on here are very different in sound to their first three albums, but I dig it.

If you like: Rock music with 70s pop vibes, Angles is perfect for ya.

Favourites off this album: Two Kinds of Happiness, Machu Picchu, Games

5. Buds by Surf Curse

Genre: Surf rock/punk, lo-fi vibes

ENTER THE START OF A NEW BEGINNING. Surf Curse is literally the best band I found in 2017, no lie. I found them after clicking around on YouTube, and haven’t looked back since. This is literally the best music to listen to when you need to get through them summer finals/want to go to the beach but can’t go to the beach/need some quality grade angst in your life.

If you like: Punk music with loooots of drums and lit rhythm guitar, would recommend. Also if you enjoy supporting really sweet bands, send Nick and Jacob some love.

Favourites off this album: Heathers, Fire Walk With Me, Goth Babe, The Smell Saved My Life

6. Future Present Past EP by the Strokes

Genre: Alternative rock with more new wave vibes lol I think

THIS EP. This EP is so groovy. Literally, if you need some groove in your life, this is perfect.

If you like: Groovy tunes, here we goooo

Favourites off this EP: It’s so short, but Oblivius (Moretti Remix) and Threat of Joy are the bomb dot com.

7. Sad Boys EP by Surf Curse

sad bois

Genre: Surf rock, punk

More blessed Surf Curse fammmm. If you seriously need to go to a mental beach, this EP will immediately take you there. Sad Boys is the kind of music that plays over like beachy montages in like 80s coming of age films.

If you like: Hardcore beach vibes, the end of summer aesthetic, this EP is lovely.

Favourites: Forever Dumb, Beach Whatever, I’m Not Making Out With You, Reality Bites

8. Nothing Yet by Surf Curse

Genre: Surf rock with those beachy vibes though this album is harder to describe

THIS ALBUM is so good. I listened to this while I was in Mexico with my family, and it will forever be my ‘Mexico’ album. It’s got some really amazing riffs mixed in there which is a little different from Buds, but soooo good. Surf Curse signed my copy of this also. Love. <3

If you like: Punk with more indie vibes I guess? This album’s genre is hard to describe for me ha, but if you like some chill music that's kinda existential, here we goooo.

Favourites off this album: (the entire thing is so good but here are a few): Christine F, Doom Generation, The Strange and the Kind, Sleeping, All Is Lost, Falling Apart

9. Music From Before the Storm by Daughter

Genre: Indie rock

I don't know how to express my love for this album in a way that’ll be remotely coherent. This was the soundtrack to Life is Strange: Before the Storm, and I couldn’t be more excited about it.

If you like: Mostly instrumental stuff, this album is perfect for you. The majority of this album is instrumental, so it’s my go to rec for people looking for music to write to. This soundtrack is sweeping, but so emotional, even though most if it is instrumental, those instruments speak for themselves. Daughter is one of my favourite bands of all time, and they did such an amazing job on this album.

Favourites: A Hole in the Earth (which imo I think is their best song yet), Dreams of William, All I Wanted, The Right Way Around, Burn It Down

10. Across the Universe Soundtrack

Genre: Rock (?)

So this is the soundtrack to the musical, Across the Universe which centres around songs from The Beatles. I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH. And this soundtrack is lovely too. My parents are both mega Beatles fans, so I grew up listening to a loooot of their music. This soundtrack is literally life.

If you like: The Beatles, musicals, amazing vocals from everybody, I totally recommend this soundtrack.

Favourites: Hold Me Tight, All My Loving, With A Little Help From My Friends, If I Fell, Because, Something, Revolution, Across the Universe

11. Me Oh My Mirror by Current Joys

Genre: I really don't know with this one, rock with indie feels sometimes?

Current Joys is Nick from Surf Curse’s solo project, and I’m literally in love, lol. This album is so beautiful, and what I’m currently digging.

If you like: Sort of chill music that can get very not chill as the songs progress, indie, songs about angst, love, finding your place in the worldz, this is my go to. This album is art. It will make you feel all the emotions. It’s legit so poignant.

Favourites: Desire and also the Desire Demo, Home Pt. 3, My Motorcycle, These Times Will Never Change, Don’t Be Consumed, Home Pt. 1 and 2, Here’s To The Afterlife

So that’s it for albums! Onto some singles/other songs I really enjoyed this year:

- Jaded by Precious Kid

- Dirty Disposition by Precious Kid

- Obstacles by Syd Matters

- To All Of You by Syd Matters

- 11th Dimension by Julian Casablancas

- Modern Girls and Old Fashioned Men by The Strokes

And that's a wrap for music!

2017 was the year I really started getting into film. I solidified that if I didn't study writing, I’d go into film instead! This year pretty much verified my love and passion for film and the like. I have many recommendations for you all, and whilst I know this category is for films, ha, I’m also going to include television shows.

First up are the short films I watched this year. In no particular order, I present to you, All Of The Films I Watched Instead Of Writing And I Have No Regrets At All

1. Andy by Mikey Murphey

The cinematography in this short is so good? Like I’m shook? And the acting? And the colour-grade? Just everything about this is so good. This is the little description of it on YouTube:

After being horribly bullied throughout high school, a mistake at a party leads Andy into getting back at an old friend of his... by outing her relationship with a teacher...

I’ve watched this at least 5 times now, and I have zero regrets. A would recommend, especially if you write YA contemporary!

2. Friend Like Me by Sammy Paul

Everything about this is so good?? I was very shook??? The acting?? The script?? The audio??? So GOOD??

Description from YouTube:

A story of Toby, his genie and the very last wish...

This idea is literally so cool, and this is absolutely one of my fave short films of all time. If you want to get into short films, I’d highly recommend giving this one a try!

3. Tick Where It Hurts by Bertie Gilbert

This film is so beautiful, so emotional, and the colours are so gorgeous. The story is also so amazing and hit home. Also, my boy Bertie gives off some major Clifford vibes in this one, ha. I would go into this one without knowing what’s up, but I’ll give a trigger warning for suicide here in case.

4. Playground by Bertie Gilbert and Sammy Paul

I started my Bertie Gilbert film adventures with this one, and it did not disappointed. This film is so so so good, and if there’s one film I urge you to watch off this list, it’s this one.

Summary off IMDb:

Ezra finds himself dealing with the loss of his younger brother in a rather unconventional way. On route to the funeral service he (and his bike) are taken hostage by a gang of forest dwelling children. In return for his release Ezra must help them fix their rocket ship. However, in the process of doing so, he finds an escape from grief.

5. Comfort Food by Sam Saffold

THIS. I absolutely love the story, and the coolest part is, there is no talking. Sam managed to create such a beautiful story in such an effective way. This film is gold. This film follows a relationship ft. popcorn ft. food ft. everything you ever wanted in a short film.

So that’s it for my favourites! I watched so many other amazing short films this year, so if you want anymore recs, I’ve got tons I didn't get to mention here!

As for TV shows, I enjoyed quite a few this year, namely:

1. 13 Reasons Why

A controversial show I wouldn't have watched it if it weren't for my boy Dylan who I was following through The Narwhals for a while. Not a fan of the book, but I think this show is actually incredibly important to watch. I’ve struggled with suicidal thoughts all my life, so this one was great for me. I truly enjoyed the writing in the show as well.

2. Criminal Minds

So I’ve actually watched Criminal Minds since I was like 7, and it was always one of my faves growing up. After watching a couple episodes with my family on our drive up to Pennsylvania, @sarahkelsiwrites decided to watch all of it from season one. Currently on season 11 (or 10 if we rewatch), and it’s been so good? I can’t tell you how helpful this show has been in inspiring me writing-wise, so if you like crime shows (which are my favourite) and haven’t watched Criminal Minds, this is a huge recommend!

So that’​s it for TV because I’m not much of a TV watcher lol.

Which is a wrap for films as a whole!

I’m just going to preface this entire section by saying I failed big time in the reading department this year. I read a total of 10 books, which seems okay, but then 5 of them were re-reads, and 2 of them were for school lol.

This was definitely the year of audiobooks. I will say that. I listened to all three of The Darkest Minds books this year because that’s probably my favourite series ever, listened to Bitterblue by Kristen Cashore after having read it twice because you gotta live that audiobook life, and also listened to All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven because that’s also one of my favourites and that audiobook life amirite. So. The five re-reads were actually listened to lol. I tried. I’m almost done my listen through of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (another re-read) which I’ve been listening to for a year. lol. I don't know what to do with myself.

So yes. I don't have much to say in this department, other than that. I’ve also started narrating audiobooks for fun which is a cool thing?

Honestly crossing my fingers for next year, ha.

Oh boy, do I have some favourites for you.

1. WordBook

WordBook is a dictionary and thesaurus app for PC and it’s the best thing I found all year. It works online and off, so it’s perfect for on the go, and I’m going to cry for a straight week when I get a Mac next year because they don't have a Mac version. :( This app is so easy to use, gives me great words when I’m looking for synonyms for something, and is actually my favourite thesaurus. I much prefer this to googling, so I’ll have to find a replacement before I go to uni! But if you have a PC and are looking for a great dictionary and thesaurus app, this one is my favourite.

2. OneLook Reverse Dictionary

This literally saved my life this year many times, so I’m putting it here. If you ever can’t find a word but know its definition/words in the vein of what you want, this app is PERFECT. I can’t tell you how many times a word has slipped my mind, and this has helped me find it.  

3. Word’s text to speech feature

As noted in my books section, I’m a huge fan of audiobooks. Listening to my work was a thing that became super prevalent this year, and I truly think helped me out in a number of areas in my writing: flow, voice, and catching typos! I often listened to my chapters after I wrote them to get a feel for what content was there. This was one of my favourite things I implemented into my writing process this year by far.

4. You

Okay so here is my moment to get cheesy, lol. This year, I started my Doing the Write Thing series, which I’ve mentioned multiple times, has been pivotal in my writing journey. I would say that’s a favourite of mine, and while the series itself is great and so important to me, the reason it has become so integral in my life, is because of you guys. Your continuous support means so, so much to me, especially on that series. So thank you for reading those, and for making that series so much more special to me, and in general, making this one of the best years of my life.

So that’s it for this post! Hope you enjoyed seeing some of my favourites from this year! Happy 2018!

─「エデン」─  " is there any type of worlds you'd like to see ? " the TRAILBLAZER allowed her curiosity to be voiced as both of them gazed into the vast galaxy before them. each dots of lights was another world, and though they were well aware that the course of their travel had been set to follow the path akivili once embarked on, that spark of wanderlust and desire to see different sights wasn't something identical to each person. eden wondered what kind of sight her friend wished to witness.
