Imo cyber midriff and core areas are the best part, flex of different angles of cyber abs, hips, backs all look 😤👌🏻 artistically and…cuteistically(?)

But fr! I think they are more satisfying to me because they are aspects that really humanize and ground the characters equipped with the cybernetics, without real flex i the shoulders and traps how real would a cute girl feel when snapping rebar bare handed?

Wether qt or nor they sell “strong” at a glance more than any jawline or silhouette

True, cyber tummies and midriffs are also great - that same idea of taking complex musculature and translating it into metal, or just mixing it up entirely.

Sharp pointy cybergirls with squishy cyberguts can also be a fun contrast.

Cyberbacks are something I haven't drawn enough of - gonna have to remedy that.

Putting some sketches up cuz that’s about what I e gotten done and they were received p well haha

The Cora sketches are practice with the facial features for a knight Cora for @writingmysanity thanks for your patience on him and on the Cora Swan plush 🫡 crocheting the wings is taking a hOT minute for many reasons but especially because the integration of hearts ain’t exactly how I want it but I will beat the hook and yarn into submission One Day 😤 the features are kinda working I think, def gives more old knight esp with your suggested Arthur reference but I worry but I think it’s mainly cuz he’s missing the makeup that it looks Off to me lol ended up making them have some similar ass features but imma say it’s family resemblance even if adoptive 💀

The Law thirst is simply for the enjoyment of Law thirst 👌🏻 a beautiful man and I want practice properly drawing his tats. The foreshortening on the arms is brutal 💀 I tried to look at my own forearm tat for reference but it didn’t translate well in my brain. May have to get some markers and doodle hit tats on so I can Understand lol also there’s the bit of anatomy practice to it that I def need cuz I draw afab 96% of the time whoops. Might do something more with the Law sketch cuz I ain’t hate it but the next steps in the process are the Scary Ones 💀

I'm so happy to find someone who focuses on the male reader 🙏 (I usually read both, but the male one is rarer to find)

can i request some headcanons of Angry/Souya or Kuroo with a reader who speaks Brazilian Portuguese at some moments? like when he's angry or something (you can add some swear words if you want)

Ya want it? Ya got it! 👀👌🏻✨️ (Also, I am sorry if there's any mistake in the Portuguese sentence at some points, I didn't study this language and I am using Google Translator🙏)

Also I hope it will be good and that I didn't mess up anything xD

_______________________________________

KUROO:

● You can be sure that there is never enough fun with him. The guy literally does everything to make you choke with laughter.

● When he found out you were Brazilian. Kuroo would make his signature smirk and then start taunting you. (make you swear. I don't know why but I think he finds Portuguese quite a funny language.)

● I wouldn't mind if he started learning single words in Portuguese. Picture this: Kuroo and you are sitting next to each other in your/his room, studying for a test. Then the spiky haired man took the math book from the floor and said "It's time for matemática"! but his accent sounded terrible, almost like he did that on purpose to see ya get annoyed(true). So you gave him an irritated look and then correct him, "MATEMÁTICA, seu idiota."

● You and Tsukishima are officially enemies. Because Kei irritates you, pure tradition✨️

● Once Kuroo was at volleyball practice, along with Bokuto and Tsukishima and you. The boy looked at you and Kei, hearing him teasing you and you fiercely defending yourself. However, the moment Saltyshima overstepped, you started screaming: "SEU ESTÚPIDO, SE NÃO CALAR A BOCA EU VOU TE MATAR! você vê esse cara? você vai conseguir antes de conseguir, seu maltrapilho!"

● It's safe to say that Kei was visibly scared when you suddenly started shouting in Protuguese and swinging the shoe you had taken off your foot at him. Also Bokuto got scared, he hid under the box with volleyball balls. (Imagine that xDDD)

● Kuroo was laughing his ass off, like the hyena he is. He just loves when you speak Portuguese.

● He's the type of guy who will dance with you to the brazilian songs and other in the middle of city or park.

● You two often do play fighting.

● He once hit ya with a ball accidently and the next thing he knows was he running for his life.

i've been having some thoughts about priest!miguel and nun!reader...not necessarily smutty persay but thoughts nonetheless. i always imagined reader to have a very soft voice while speaking due to her being one of the younger sisters and most likely being shy. but this also translates into a beautiful singing voice. angelic if you will. n i've just been imagining miguel being so transfixed with her as she sings at mass in the choir. her voice just stands out to him naturally and while she sings the hymns as their eyes meet, he can't help but fight the urge to sweep her off her feet and take her far away from the church. and maybe, just maybe she can use that sweet voice to sing a lullaby to a baby or two :3 have a great day my love!!!

This... Omg. Yes. YES!!!

And curiously? This artist this popped in my playlist. This song is just 👌🏻👌🏻.

I love Kalandra's voice. Is so soft and pure ❤️ And I think it fits her just perfect to what you just described. AAAHHH ❤️

Such a wonderful headacanon ✨✨❤️

Okay so, danish is my native language, and even though I’m in my 30s now and I have read the books in english, I still primarily engage with the danish versions whenever I’m doing a reread or relisten, because they’re the ones I grew up with (and the audiobook narrator of the danish version is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻)

It’s small and subtle differences between the versions, but danish feels so much more Romionarry coded, and Ron is a lot more supportive.

The biggest difference is that he acknowledges and sides with Harry in recognising that the treatmeant he recieves from Snape and Seamus isn’t okay.

In the english version, Ron says that “It’s not our fault how Snape and Seamus treats you.”

In the most literary translation I can do of the danish Ron says “We can’t be held at fault/made responsible for the fact tha Snape and Seamus are treating you unfairely”

Ron uses the word “uretfærdigt” which firmly puts him on Harry’s side. In the english, he isn’t actively taking a stand against them, but he is in the danish version.

In the english version, Ron also makes it clear that he’s only sharing Hermione’s thoughts with Harry

“But Hermione says SHE thinks-“

In the danish, he doesn’t add that extra layer. He just says “Hermione says that if would be nice-“ He’s more aligned with Hermione, but he’s also putting himself as a more active participant. He agress with Hermione, he’s an active part of the “us” that is being affected by Harry’s explosive behavior.

[p-p-red]

Oops, I misremembered Ken as Kevin. This is your guy, right? Did you decide on a name? No pressure, I'm just curious :3

I’M FIIIINALLY BACK GUYS!!! I’m sorry for like just disappearing for MONTHS-??.. i was kinda uh, too bothered by some problems, but i’m back! Anyway, i think i will keep it something like “hijac” or “kinjal”, the first one is a ukrainian word for “animal” or “predator”/“beast, the second one is the word for “dagger” or “knife”, since i’m thinking that their fighting style will be more of a cutting one(their arms are made out of triengles and their jaw is tliterally a burrower/and jaw_), so yeah. I’m also thinking on the name “messier” (the mix of german words of “knife beast”, the translator translated it as “Messer-Bestie” so i went “Mess-ie-r”, and tada, messier, as a name for a beat that cuts you. 👌🏻

"A N I L L O 💍"

- Rodolfo x y/n -

Warnings : tooth rotting fluff in everything, Pure love (😗)

March 8,2023..

Rudy texts y/n's mom before coming home..

*In text*

Rodolfo :

I want to gift y/n a ring, Don't tell her right now, Just thinking when to give..

Mom :

You purchased a ring?

Rodolfo :

Hmm.

But won't give it in front of you..

It's better to give the ring alone..

Mom :

You can gift her on eid instead

*add any fest/occasion if your choice, My mom said Eid so ya*..

Rodolfo :

Nah

No way

Today..

Mom :

Really?

Rodolfo :

After she is done with reading her books...

»»——(´･ω･`)——««

Rodolfo came home , only to find y/n reading peacefully and noticed him peaking from the door in her room, happiness and love shinning in his eyes.. She smiles, telling him to switch on the TV and search something funny to watch while she finishes sliding her books in their places...

He went, sat down in the mid 2 seated sofa in the TV room.. He waved y/n's mom to go to her room so he can have some time with her.. *creating a moment to give her the ring , Mom gave him a thumbs up and goes to her room*

*After an hour.. *

Rodolfo : *staring at her like she's out of some sorta dream* Y/n : *states back* What is it love?

Rodolfo : Close your eyes..I have something for you 🥰 Y/n : Well ..okay..but what is it ?

Rodolfo : Don't peak okay.... Y/n : Okay love

Rodolfo took a moment to grab the box outta his pocket and opened to reveal a beautiful shining ring..

Photo : The ring Rodolfo gave you *The ring which my love gave me*

He told to open your eyes , a shine beaming from the velvet black box..you see A Ring

Rodolfo : In which finger would u like to wear this Love? Y/n : The left ring finger / ( readers choice ) she gave her hand and pointed to her left ring finger*

Rodolfo : *slides the ring in her finger with whole love shinning in his face* Y/n : *Trying not to cry over bcz she was just tooo much emotional*

Rodolfo : You like it? Y/n : *helds his chin and lands a quick sweet kiss on his lips* It's really cute 🥹

Rodolfo : *responding the kiss* Momma will see us Mi Amor 🤭 *shy af* Y/n : *Even tomatoes failed in front of her tinted cheeks* "Hehe ❤🤭"

- *After the movie ended, He went home with a bright smileee*

Y/n & Rodolfo was happy all the second which passed ✨

Later, Her Mom texts Rodolfo ::

Mom :

Y/n is so happy, She can't stop smiling after you gave her the ring .. She's blushing red , son..

Rodolfo :

🥰❤

(He's turned red too..)

...*＊✿❀ T H E - 💍 - E N D ❀✿＊*...

Note :

The writing is based over the moment when mi Amor made me wear a ring for now , until we are officially married/engaged . The text part was translated from Bangla to english for readers & also "A N I L L O" means "R I N G" in Spanish 😁 (the special date is mentioned in the fic which isn't a made up one 👌🏻)...

.

Story:

*I swear it's short* *heh.. H.. Heh.. Ya.. *

Boyfriend ain't a word to describe him , He's straight up my husband..that's it *sorry if It sounds cringe*

He's actually My dad's good - close friends's son..😌

The first time we met was in my home, he came home for some work None of us had idea that We were raising feelings for each other *love at first sight ? Yes. *

We both were heck young ( age gap : 9-10 years) unaware of the meaning "crush" that time..but, We were each other's first crush & first love <3

Together for around 7 years and counting the sweet times with patience, love and understanding 🥰

Both of us waited for a perfect time to share our feelings properly..

He even wrote a proposal letter to me , even after asking directly...in the generation of texting long ass paragraph.. How sweet is that?

He proves loyalty every time - in this gen of sus love where loyalty, care & understanding is frking rare..

Most surprising thing,

we had no idea that both of our parents were planning for us from a very long time.We weren't able to express it to them but yk.. Parents mind and heart you know..somehow they just understand *😌☺*

Now, How about I pull up some points for a proper introduction of him to you all <3 ✨🥰

He has No bad habits ❤

Good Boiii fr fr ✨

Studied from * DU * ( tap the highlighted word to know)

Banker . Probationary Officer * here * ( tap the hlighted word to know) *1 visiting card in my wallet muhuahaha*

Pious, fears Allah 😇

Had no relationships before (ik him very very veryyy well + he's not like this gen boiss y'all, he's one of the rare ones )🤌

Respectful towards elders ❤

Obsessed with homemade foods , digging into street foods ain't in his list

Understanding , kind , includes all positive energy , behavior & nature -Well he's a total sweetheart after all ..🤭

Likes whatever I like , same for the supporting thing .. Yup *sometimes side eyeing funnily*

*Ah I can't finish if I start writing ..he's too good to be bounded in words ...26 letters, infinite numbers ain't enough to describe his goodness & how much I love him* *shy *shy *shy* :)))

And ya.. Funny point abt him.. He'll be like "😏" whenever a cute gaming character comes up in front of us *he receives my deadpan face *like ghost in las almas , but then we end up laughing*🤣

"Wish we could laugh together everyday , sitting in front of the tv or over a meme.. Well he's in a profession and gets 2 days off as weekend + He lives with his parents.. So ya . But if I call him to come over saying Mom or I cooked something nicey nicey .. Flash will be in shame by his speed of coming to me" *with his cycle + as I said before..he's obsessed with homemade food *❤❤🤣✨

Ah, well..I hope these are enough for u guys to know him, well..*Shortly🤭* 💅🏻

Oh, and if I introduce him as COD characters type? Well that's a must since I'm a COD obsesseeeeed as y'all know ( will describe like in ff's *adding their real life type too , as far as I've seen & know about * ) 😉

Serious like Simon *but not cold*👌🏻( chilling - vibin Samuel)

Crazy & funny like Jhony 🤣😝 ( Neil has Bobby the doggo and my man owns a pair of cute cockatiels *oh & a stray momma cat always roams in his home, even gave birth to 3 kittens at his resident , Often sends me pics of the cute meow member, no one owns her but his family is hers too 🥺**)

Total cutie like Kyle ( In ff's Elliot is mentioned as the sweet , cute one so ya..)

Romantic af like Alejandro💍 ( Alain the man y'all , F L U F F 🤌)

Trusted & fully loyal like Rodolfo ✨( Cool like Bayardo) *he doesn't wear chainzz & all, Watch is the main thing for him, has a bicycle instead of a risky bike * which Looks a bit like MW2 Themed *UwU*)

Handling any situation with cool brain + maturity like Price 🤜🏻🤛🏻 ( Family man like Barry..family bond was always on top, since childhood ❤)

About how he looks like : Well..dear readers, He's straight outta Dreamland, No matter how many words exists on this earth, ain't enough to describe him..

He's a guy that every girl dreams of to live with until death . Tbh, He's a combination of all cute, sweet and heart filling romantic quotes <3

Mi Amor ,

If your reading this... Ily to the moon and back.. If someone takes your name in my grave, they will see how it brings me back to life ✨🤭

End Note :

Might sound cheesy in some ways .. Well writing this fic has a bonus point which is I felt secure and happy to share this with you guys, and since I'm a person too shy to speak out these words to him.. It was better to write them down as notes in this fic, after all its based on true events thing , *I added an extra detail which didn't happen on that day , The kiss part.. No kiss and all until marriage, strict rules in Islam and we respectfully follow it ❤

& ya, No one knows about our relationship *sneaky sneaky x 100*

Fun part :

It's fun when u are posting cute , couple stuff on ig story and sharing it like it's just nothing and your single , meanwhile you were never single...*ig that's called sharing but not exposing.. *chefs kiss*

Our parents are perfectly aware of it *obviously they know it,lol* ( A N G E L S )

My 3 homies in CarryMinati Fandom * the sweeeeettttttest and top trusted, love you cuties*

And you *the reader* ( Your also my homie,whoever came across this)

OKAY THAT'S IT *chuckles*

And one thing,

If the reader is in love, I wish you a very happy and healthy ending with your love. And If your single, I pray God links you up with your sweet other half who understands you truly when it's time <;3"

So ….it seems this year is the year where I finally kick my ass to finish my special manga list and this is one of the titles there , I knew 07-ghost from the anime which lead me to see the manga , back then it wasn’t done yet nor there was scanned translations for it yet but now it’s done and shit the authors fucked up the lead so hard , it’s a mix of drama , psychology, demons, a bit of shounen vibe .

The story goes around a military student named ( tatio ) who’s also a combat slave owned by the military, the story goes on about him discovering the truth of his identity, then the fact his memories were erased so he haves to gain them , the lose of his only light ( his best friend mikagi ) , and the truth about the 07-ghost with their origin mixed with the connection of the worlds fate on his hand and his opposite …I felt hocked reading none stop the whole story and I loved how the villain and the lead got bamboozled by a hidden player no one saw coming but the ending was bitter sweet I guess like it’s good and logical but I kinda wished for a different way 🤷🏻‍♀️ regardless it was a good ending and it didn’t piss me off , making me love it more even with the pain in it 😭😭😭

Also teito are you a blonde magnet?? Cause damn you bring them to you like hot cakes 🤣🤣🤣 and in all ages too

( update: I just discovered that there is a side manga for it called “ 07-ghost children “ I will try finding it and when I do you will get a new review 🤣👌🏻 )

[hood-ex]

i did NOT know you were into the outsiders. the outsiders was, like, my 2nd fandom ever and i was SUPER into it. found family has forever been my #1 and i just love all of the guys so much. sodapop is so bleeding-heart-on-his-sleeve imo and we love him for it

You know what, I think it must have been my first or second fandom 😆. I literally almost named my dog Sodapop because I was so obsessed with the novel/movie at the time. Ended up creating an "I <3 Sodapop" shirt at someone's birthday party instead lmao. And then I was obsessed with watching movies that C. Thomas Howell and Ralph Macchio were in (which then started an obsession with The Karate Kid series). I also told my driving instructor that I wanted to marry young Rob Lowe, and he was like pfft, what, have you even seen any of his movies? And I was like yeah, duh, ever heard of St. Elmo's Fire, old man?? 😂

I have also always carried with me the knowledge that on the set of The Outsiders, Tom Cruise had to drink a bunch of raw eggs to make himself throw up so that he could do a scene. Dude was so gung-ho about acting on that set that he was like yeah lemme blow some chunks so we can keep rolling. But anyway, now I think about that whenever I feel sick, and I'm like hm maybe I should do the ole Tom Cruise method 😂.

And then like?? The fact that before (?) filming they let all the Soc actors stay in nice rooms and then let all the Greasers sleep on the floor (or something?? don't remember exactly what the conditions were) as a way to build resentment between the actors so it would translate on screen.

And no yeah, the found family aspect of The Outsiders is sooo 👌🏻. I mean it has the main Curtis brothers which already ticks off my box of platonic sibling bonds, but the gang acting as the other half of the family is 👌🏻.

[musette22]

Omg OK Minnie I just had a thought. Obviously don't read this if haven't seen Ghosted yet!!!!

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

But the ending song is "Love Again" by Dua Lipa and the lines "But goddamn you got me in love again" reminded me that Seb's character's name was God, the Bounty Hunter and my brain translated the lyrics as "But God, damn, you got me in love again" as maybe a cheeky reference since Chris produced this movie and ahhhhhhhhh!!!

I mean, I can see them falling in love again and again...right????

NAYVA 😭😭😭😭 WHY must you make me cry more?? Rude, but also I love you for it 🥺 God (hah) that's a good thought 💯💯 I want to see them falling in love over and over again, forever till the end of time 💘✨️ Thanks for sharing this thought with me, lovely!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

Speaking of the soundtrack, there were a bunch of bangers on there! 👌🏻 I approve

[tadpolesonalgae]

hey tabby! 🫀anon here, thank you so much for taking the time to reply and with such kindness at that🥹

>>Gosh, I hope you aren’t disappointed by it—just as a heads up it might be a little slow in parts but I hope you enjoy it :)

First off, Gosh, I don't think I COULD be disappointed by ANYTHING that you write, like honest to God, your work heals me. I'm just having a hard time deciding if I want to wait cbmthy out till it's complete or if I should just start it already 😭 because I know I'll just want to tear my hair off if the latest chapter ends in like a cliffhanger or something.

>>(I loved him being cold, and cruel, and kind of flirtatious 🫢😳)

💯 i mean, sameee gurl sameee 👌🏻

honestly, I loved Rhysand's character soo much throughout the 1st book even tho sjm did not exactly make him seem like a "main" character or one who's on the "good" side in it, and I was even prepared for him as a villain of sorts? like, I don't mean Amarantha or Hybern level of villain, but deffo like badguy with ulterior motives that don't really affect the world in a bad sense but would definitely resort to immoral ways to accomplish said ulterior motives kind of bad? so kinda like an anti hero ig? (sorry if I'm not making sense, it's just English isn't my first language and I didn't know how to translate it best. also, I'm also not very good with words 🥲) which might be why I absolutely loved your dark!Rhys fics, Gods were they amazing, thankyou for writing them luv🤌🏻

>>I never hated Tamlin though

oh I'm so glad somebody resonates with me on this, now I don't know if you still like/don't dislike him after all the books or if you only meant through the first book, but I personally would love to see his character explored a lot more and think there's a lot of scope but for some reason everywhere I see, there's only hate for him(mostly) and I hate that some people judge me(and a lot of other readers) solely on the basis of characters we like/dislike? needless to say, I wouldn't say I hated tamlin either, infact I still enjoy feylin fics a lot even tho I don't get to read very many of them. it's just that back when I was reading ACOMAF I just NEEDED my otp(feysand) to happen fsr lol😅 honestly I don't think I'd have minded all that much if feylin was infact endgame, I'd just have been a little sad is all lol🥲 because how many otps of mine just didn't happen?(😭the answer is in a good high tens)

>>I mean to be fair, I don’t really watch films or tv shows at all anymore, and until acotar I hadn’t read many books so I think I might have been oblivious to those tropes/cliches

I so completely understand this bit, because personally, I'm exhaustingly clueless about a lot of media that people are usually just raving on and on about and it's not usually because I don't want to watch it, but there are these attention deficit tendencies that love visiting me on a regular basis that just won't let me sit down, load a show and watch it till the end😭 I mean, I watched the 1st iron man movie 16 years after it first came out so🥲and it wasn't for a lack of trying, I've been meaning to watch it for the past 8 years or so and I just got around to it. honestly it's a miracle I read all the Acotar books to the end lol

>>Thank you so much for writing in!!

Thank YOU for actually taking out the time to read it AND reply to it, in such detail at that. i truly mean it when I say you're one of the kindest individuals I've interacted with online and you inspire me to pass that kindness on as well.

ps: this isn't exactly an ask but I just couldn't NOT reply to your message, so I'm just glad you read it, you really don't have to reply to it, I'm just happy to have sent this message on it's way.

we all love you, Tabby.

—🫀

‘First off, Gosh, I don't think I COULD be disappointed by ANYTHING that you write, like honest to God, your work heals me.’

😭🫂🫂🫂🫂 thank you so much 😭🧡💛

‘I'm just having a hard time deciding if I want to wait cbmthy out till it's complete or if I should just start it already 😭 because I know I'll just want to tear my hair off if the latest chapter ends in like a cliffhanger or something.’

Oooh gosh, I guess it’s up to you? There’s still a lot of the story left to write—I’d say we’re probably either half or two thirds of the way there in terms of storyline and events that will happen. It’s not going to be over any time soon, basically, which is both exciting and pretty scary 😭

Honestly I think the tension is in the first half, if that makes sense? (Which it probably doesn’t since you don’t know reader’s fate, but 🤷) There’s going to be a ‘half’ chapter which adds in some contexts to reader’s history, but I think after chapter 15, that should be where the tension relaxes a bit? I like to think that in *very* broad terms, chapters 1 through 15 are the ‘hurt’ ones, and 16 onward will be the ‘comfort’ ones? There are still going to be intense moments but she might not have to be on her own anymore (provided she learns to seek help when she needs it)

‘but deffo like badguy with ulterior motives that don't really affect the world in a bad sense but would definitely resort to immoral ways to accomplish said ulterior motives kind of bad?’

Yes! Like I’m happy with how Feysand turned out, but I would have been fine if Rhys stayed ‘evil’ for a bit longer 🫢 just a few more scenes of him being super scary and Feyre being wary of him 🤭

I feel like even as soon as he first visited her in her cell, there was a suggestion he wasn’t that bad? Especially after we learned only one person bet on her winning? Ignoring how acotar characters would write that off as a whim, from a storytelling standpoint that’s a pretty clear way of singling a character out and making them significant 🤭

‘(sorry if I'm not making sense, it's just English isn't my first language and I didn't know how to translate it best. also, I'm also not very good with words 🥲)’

Girl if you hadn’t straight up said English isn’t your first language, I would’ve had no idea 😭

‘which might be why I absolutely loved your dark!Rhys fics, Gods were they amazing, thankyou for writing them luv🤌🏻’

Thank you so much!!! Yes, I have to say there is a certain appeal to writing dark characters, but only if they have a soft spot of some kind for the reader 😭🧡💛

‘oh I'm so glad somebody resonates with me on this, now I don't know if you still like/don't dislike him after all the books or if you only meant through the first book,’

I didn’t hate him in the first book or any other after that, BUT, I did definitely get frustrated with him during the High Lords’ meeting 😭 I kind of wish we got his perspective on that, or at least more about his character? Because Feyre dismantling stability within the Spring Court was quite a brash move I think, and one she might have decided against if she wasn’t having to deal with so many other matters as well as sorting through her own emotions? Because she definitely went through a lot 😭

I guess I feel that Tamlin has a lot of anger in general, which can make him impulsive and volatile at times—like when Feyre first realised she could make a shield in his office—and I’d love to see Sarah explore that more!!

‘but I personally would love to see his character explored a lot more and think there's a lot of scope’

Yes! Exactly!! There’s so much we don’t know about his character and so much potential to spin new stories? Ugh I would love that so much 😭

‘and I hate that some people judge me(and a lot of other readers) solely on the basis of characters we like/dislike?’

I mean, I think it’s made more complicated because of immersion and how emotionally connected some people feel to characters? I was having a conversation about how we all read the same books but it’s interesting there’s such a vast range of opinions? Like some people really hate Nesta, which I can see why I suppose but I personally love her 🧡💛

I think the problem starts when people get too attached to characters that they’re unable to speak objectively about them? I’m definitely guilty of this too though 😭 one of my friends read acotar and was saying something about Az and how they didn’t like him and I straight up asked them to stop because I knew it would upset me 😭 (they did, which was kind of them ☹️)

‘it's just that back when I was reading ACOMAF I just NEEDED my otp(feysand) to happen fsr lol😅’

No I get that 🤩

The tension being set up both in the one bed at the inn scene and the Court of Nightmares moment just made the resolution really enjoyable for me! Not so much the smut part, but when Rhys finds her in the cabin and they end up having a heart to heart, and Rhys tells her more about his history? It just made me feel so happy for them so I know what you mean about wanting them to get together!

‘but there are these attention deficit tendencies that love visiting me on a regular basis that just won't let me sit down, load a show and watch it till the end’

I don’t have it to that extent, but I know that on a smaller scale, I like having music or videos playing in the background while I work? Especially while doing more domestic work like the washing up, changing my sheets, generally tidying etc. it makes the process so much easier, and I won’t get bored of the work or feel guilty for relaxing during ‘work hours’ on weekends

‘I've been meaning to watch it for the past 8 years or so and I just got around to it.’

8 YEARS?? 🫢

Well done for keeping up the determination to actually watch it! 🎉

‘Thank YOU for actually taking out the time to read it AND reply to it, in such detail at that.’

I honestly cannot explain how much I love getting to speak with you. Genuinely, it’s so wonderful being able to interact with other people who like acotar and especially getting to discuss and debate different elements of the story has got to be one of my favourite things about fandom 🫂🧡💛

‘we all love you, Tabby.’

My eyes are prickling for some reason ☹️

Thank you for writing in and taking the time to read through the fics on here ☹️🫂🧡💛

I continue to be amazed with your work😍 just when I think you can’t outdo yourself you prove me wrong again😭👌🏻💕 your latest ghost story (and the one before that w the virgin reader which I HOPE you consider writing a part two for because that cliffhanger had me crying 😂) once again gives so much life to this supportive, understanding and intense man you’ve made the character to be. Your take on him is literally my favorite ever in this whole fandom, I’ve definitely come to that conclusion by now. Not only do you really get the characterization so right, it’s also the way you create the feeling and the atmosphere of being loved by this man that’s so tangible through your stories. Both from the mental and physical point of view of the reader character in question. It’s amazing how you manage to translate those complexities to written word. Like I am 100% convinced that this man could fuck love all of the pain away if you give him the chance😩. He just gives off that brute energy, but once you get to the core of him he’s so eager and willing to be soft and caring for you🥲😩

(I am also currently halfway through the first part of your konig story and when I tell you the whiplash I got from going from soft and caring ghost to… that freak🫠🫥 I am both terrified and intrigued, I do love me a lil ol creep once in a while but damn that man is entirely in a league of his own 😳)

Oh you are so incredibly kind ❤️❤️❤️!

And YES he would definitely fuck and love your pain away. I love me some intense, gruff Ghost too (that's why I wrote and continue to write the medic stories and his pov) but I stand behind my headcanon of him as a man who takes full resposibility. He's distanced and cynical and cold to his enemies, sure. The soldier Ghost is not a role, it's part of him, he embodies war in full. But he doesn't have the emotional intelligence and capacity of a potato. He might be a little rough around the edges, run like a stray dog from attachments at first, but when he's there, he's there. When he settles... Damn, he really fucking commits.

And umm, you're not the only reader who has voiced their wish for a pt 2 to that Virgin story. It's on the to do list, sort of, but I can't promise anything 🙈

And omg you went from this to Just Friends noooo my dear I wish I could give you a hug and a pat in the back and tell you it's gonna be ok 😭💔

It's kinda funny how in my masterlist there's first the soft!König story with the summary "König doesn't want to hurt women"... and then under it lies this yandere dumpster fire. Like, I really split him into two different beings, didn't I. And now I hear he's also a colonel and that gives me a whole new (dilf!!!1) vibe... Good god, this game and my brain.

There will be more soft Ghost stories in the future and I hope they make up for the toxic perv that is my latest König. Thank you for this message, it's the sweetest thing! 🩷🩷🩷💋 It makes me so happy if and when I can give comfort/entertain people with my stories.

I want to vomit .

Tokyo Revengers are being released in my country. I am not interested in translation to my native language because English translations are better.

But today I found out that those absolute cretens decided it's amazing idea to translate all the UNIFORM EMBROIDERY.

THIS IS TRAAASH!!!

Also "Group of hooligans" on right sleeve is the shit on top 👌🏻

🌱 My Watch Collection (Of Only Sub $100 Watches)

And my wife’s way nicer collection

Even though I like tech, and Apple gear, I don’t have smart watch. And the main reason I that I like (mostly mechanical) watches too much. But even though my dream watch is an old Explorer with faded Tritium, I only own very cheap watches. And I���ve greatly enjoyed finding bargains that still looks good and works well - several of them from Russia/USSR.1

Casio A500WGA-9DF

Every watch collection, no matter the budget, needs a digital Casio. And to me, this (and its silver sister) is, by far, the coolest.

Raketa Copernicus

This hand-wound beauty has some really unique hands, and a pleasing dial. And it comes in several (more or less original) dial and colour variations. As will become apparent, I really like smaller watches like this!

I also bought it in black, back in the day. But it was dead-on-arrival - which I guess is part of the joy of ordering old, cheap watches on EBay.

Poljot De Luxe

Another hand-wound watch Made in USSR. After about a year, I usually swap the straps on these two!

The watches are bought on Ebay. The butterfly clasps are the best ones I've found on AliExpress, and the straps are high-quality ones from Etsy. Still a very affordable package!

Vostok Amphibia x2

If you’ve ever seen the Wes Anderson film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, this quirky Russian watch is the one worn by the main character. And actually with this specific dial as well!

I think he might have the blue version of the dial, though.

These automatic watches are very fun, cost “nothing”, and loves to be modded. And it can still go diving, if need be - even though the bezel is pretty shabby.

My first Vostok was the one on the right — but I found the cushion case too large, so bought the one on the left, and sold the first one. It bums me out that I don’t want to order from the factory anymore - because you could pick-and-choose the bezel, hands, crown, etc. on their site, and they would put it on before shipping! Because the stock options don’t look too great…

I don't have a current picture of this, as I'm trying to get the bezel repaired.

I currently have this leather strap on it!

My wife’s (way nicer) collection

As she’s a teacher, she also wears a watch every day. And while she doesn’t care as much as me about watches, she still has an opinion of what she wears. So these are some gifts and some “guide purchases”.2

Apple Watch Series 9

She prefers the analog watches - so this is mostly used for sleep tracking and workouts at the moment. She has a Solo Loop, and a more dressy leather strap.

Poljot De Luxe

Of course she also has a Russian watch…

Marathon General Purpose Mechanical

She likes to hike (often spending the night in the forest alone), and then this 34 mm army watch, is her companion. Enough water resistance for swimming, tritium lume, and small and light. 👌🏻

Nomos Tangente 33

When I wanted to ask her to marry me, I didn’t like the idea of spending tons of money on a diamond ring (for several reasons). So instead, I bought a vintage emerald ring and a really nice watch she could use every day. I also got in engraved with “for eternity”, which in Norwegian is a pun, as it directly translates to “for eternal time”.

I’m not blaming the Russian watch makers for the war — but I still don’t want any more of my money to go in that direction, sadly. ↩︎

She really didn’t want to model the watches — but she did it when I asked her nicely. So when I saw, just now, that the focus aren’t the best on the images, I didn’t want to ask again. So sorry about that! ↩︎

Not me having to do a family tree of some random person and then thinking I could make it about the TLH Lightwoods. 😂😂 Come on, I know their story. This is going to be easier and more interesting. Like THE DRAMA. I’m also mixing canon with my fic cause they have to be modern but 🤷‍♀️😂😂
