hello dearest, I hope you’re doing well 🩵

for the aot ask I’ve come with new questions:

15.a) if you could have prevented the death of a single character, which one would it be? (I already know the answer but still 🤣)

15.b) what is your favorite (top 3 if you can’t choose one) soundtrack?

15.c) do you prefer the anime or the manga?

much love to youuu 💓💓

Hi my dearest Dee ✨

I'm fine, even if I barely slept last night. I hope you're doing well too!

<><><><><>

15 a- If you could have prevented the death of a single character, which one would it be?

As you already guessed, I would have saved Hange of course!

Like Erwin died when the answer to his lifelong quest was within his grasp, Hange sacrificed themself before they could explore the outside world, quench their thirst for knowledge, help make people's lives better with new discoveries... I'm fascinated by their intelligence & all those amazing qualities that make them one of the best written characters in SNK, personality-wise. They would have been such an asset in the post war SNK universe.

15 b- What is your favorite (top 3 if you can't choose one) soundtrack?

If it's about the instrumental OST only, those I listen to the most at the moment are:

For the songs with a vocalist, my all-time favourite are:

I can't listen to 'Bauklotze' without crying now obviously 💔

15 c- Do you prefer the anime or the manga?

To be perfectly honest, I read the whole manga only once. I often read a random chapter or a few panels online but I still have to read it again (& it's a pain in the ass because I have the Edition Colossale & every book is f*cking heavy lmao). Besides, the French translation is not very good imo, it missed most of the dialogues' subtleties / nuances :((

Still, the manga panels are amazing, Isayama has a real talent for drawing the facial expressions & making us understand what's going on or feel so many emotions without a single word.

But I love the anime, even if a few things missing or changed kinda rub me the wrong way! The animation is insane (Levi's action scenes are always flawless & omg it's part of why I love the short badass so much!). The music is amazing & epic. The VAs are phenomenal (I only watch the Japanese version with French or English subtitles). It's a f*cking great show!

Just a few words about the scene between Eren & Armin in the last episode. As much as I cannot accept Eren's actions, I still felt sorry & sad for him. But the scene with Armin in the manga was so pathetic it almost swept away my sympathy towards him. Thanks Mappa for fixing this scene, making it a real moment of emotion between soulmate friends, & giving Eren a bit of his humanity back.

So anime it is!

<><><><><>

Thanks for taking the time to send these to me!

Sending much love back ❤️

Have a nice Sunday lovely Dee 😘

[littlerequiem]

hello Flo, hope you’re doing well 🩵

for the aot asks, here are 3 questions that aren’t in the list:

15.a) if you could have changed a single event, what would it be?

15.b) what is a scene that you prefer in the manga and not in the anime? And vice versa?

15.c) what is your favorite duo?

hi Dee, thanks for these insightful questions :D

15.a) if you could have changed a single event, what would it be?

It's not a single event per say, but I would have added more moments between the characters in the earlier parts of the story, particularly between the vets, and between Reiner & Bertholdt and Eren.

15.b) what is a scene that you prefer in the manga and not in the anime? And vice versa?

Most of the Uprising arc is done better in the manga, imo (shirtless Levi, need I say more?!?). There's this one scene in particular between Dimo and Levi that I wish they had fully incorporated into the anime. I think it made readers more attached to the Reeves company:

(Levi always cracks me up here, mentioning his tea lmao)

Anime-wise, I think the ending is handled better, particularly the conversation between Armin and Eren & the added scenes that give us a glimpse into everyone's lives post-rumbling.

15.c) what is your favorite duo?

Hange & Levi is probably my favorite duo, I just really enjoy the way they balance each other. However, I do want to mention Uri and Kenny as well - I know we've talked about it before but I think this duo (and its impact on the narrative) is often overlooked.

[19941117]

WIP Wednesday

I was tagged by @topaz-carbuncle to share something for WIP Wednesday! So, I figured I share a part of the next chapter for 'Of Devils and Monsters' (which has been written mostly but needs to be typed up and this provided me with some incentive to do so XD) and I just also love these two dorks and need their story to progress, and this just helps to reignite that fire for me!

“Fuck!” A knock at the door startled Lozen from her beading, the needle pricking her finger with more force than was needed to go through the cloth, drawing a small pinprick of crimson. Her already foul mood became worse at the intrusion[[ Expand more with description of this rather than stating it.]]. “I’m still here, you can piss off now and tell Shadis to relax or else his face will end up with a permanent scowl.”

“I would be willing to bet it’s too late for such a prevention,” Erwin’s voice came from the other side of the door, “but I will be sure to pass along the message all the same.”

Dread pooled in her stomach at the thought of having to be at the receiving end of the lecture she’d somehow avoided up until this point. She was tense enough as it was, hands as shaky as her hold onto the present as the past lapped at her heels, threatening to pull her under as it had done at the top of that tree. She set down the cloth she was working on and rose from her desk, feet heavy as she crossed over to crack open the door. “Look, Sir, I know I was-“

“Right now, I’m not here as a superior officer, but rather as a concerned friend,” he interrupted with a smile that made her heart break at how it brought to mind a younger, more open version of him. “You were absent at dinner.”

“I didn’t feel much like eating,” she muttered, her eyes glancing down to her feet for a moment before shrugging and meeting his gaze again. “Still feeling that way to be honest, in case you’re here to convince me otherwise.”

“I would hardly force you to do something that you did not wish to do,” he offered. “It would be foolish of me to attempt to achieve such a loft aspiration,” his smile reassured her, stifling the little voice in the back of her had that called for her to wrap the conversation up quickly.

“Yeah, it would. So what is it? As you can see clearly, I’m fine. If that’s all, I’d really like to get back to beading.”

“I wanted to invite you to join me in my office. I have some paperwork that will take a while. I’m willing to bet you’ll be up late as well, so why suffer late nights in solitude? I’ll put on a kettle-“

“No reprimanding lectures?”

“I will grant you a pass for tonight,” Erwin offered up a hand as though he was swearing into a court of law, only lowering his hand as the corners of his lips drew upwards. “The kitchen sent up a dessert platter as a thank you- oh, my apologies. You wouldn’t be interested in that, I suppose.”

She pursed her lips, scrunching up her nose and crossing her arms over her chest. “Nobody likes a smart ass.”

“You’re right. That was very uncouth. My apologies. I’ll drop it, say no more.” He turned as though to leave, mostly hiding the growing smile of success as he made his final play, and was stopped by her firm grip on his arm.

“I said no one likes a smart ass, not that I wasn’t going to relieve you of at least half of those sweets.” Lozen poked him in the chest with her forefinger as a smile fought to break through the schooled scowl she wore while she returned to her room to grab her beading supplies. In the few moments that gained her, she had gained victory in maintaining the cross look, but he could still see the way the light danced in her eyes with a bit of hope as she said, “Lead the way.”

They're dorks, your honor, and I am obsessed with them.

Going Nowhere

spoiler for the end of vinland saga season 1!!

summary: The path to the afterlife is a mysterious one. No one knows where it leads to, everyone likes to think it leads to eternity. No one likes to think that eternity might not be that exciting after all.

an: this is just me self indulgently pushing out something with askeladd because honestly i would've dropped dead if i didn't. this has very slight bjornskeladd and you can read into that whatever you want. also i'll get to the stuff in my inbox i promise!

wordcount: 1355

taglist: @atruewarrior

¸¸♬·¯·♩¸¸♪·¯·♫¸¸¸¸♫·¯·♪¸¸♩·¯·♬¸¸

Where do I go after I die?

Askeladd had never been one to ask himself that question. It seemed redundant, especially in the heat of battle when ‘after I die’ wasn’t a future one should consider for even a second if one didn’t want it to become reality. And in most other situations, if not all, it was simply too dark of a question to ask.

Of course the topic would come up every now and then and the men would start swooning about the halls of Valhalla, but no one ever asked themselves that question seriously. Genuinely. Asking yourself, or anyone for that matter, a genuine question usually led to genuine answers and those could be horrifying. Because if you genuinely asked Where do I go after I die?, a question very closely related to that would be Will I go to Valhalla? and no one wanted an actual serious answer to that. Yes, of course you’ll go to Valhalla if you die in battle, but you could die at any moment in any dishonorable way and you’ll never even know what hit you until they shut the door in your face. Great talk, have another drink. No way.

That answer, while terrifying to most people he had sailed with over the years, meant nothing to Askeladd. Never had. Honor was a great buzzword to die from but a foolish one to live by. And without honor, one would never go to Valhalla. Or so they always said. And Askeladd had listened but never agreed, nor had he disagreed. He wasn’t stupid, why would he run his mouth off over a subject he knew nothing about?

Where do I go after I die?

That was the thing, wasn’t it, no one knew. They believed, which was very different and far more dangerous. Believing that dying with honor was the greatest achievement in the world, that was a nice thing to do until you ran into someone who favored dishonorable survival. And Askeladd had always been that man to favor dishonorable survival, to favor survival over anything else, because it really didn’t matter how you did it as long as you stayed alive. And stay alive, escape, or as some might even say, cheat death he had done time and time again, and again, and again.

Until today.

The darkness around him was… it wasn’t even darkness anymore, it was just blackness. Blackness and something else, pictures of things Askeladd couldn’t tell whether they were memories or visions. Any time he took a closer look, he ended up seeing nothing, but then he looked down and could see himself clearly, as if he was a lantern in the dark, yet no light broke through the blackness. Any time he took a breath, his lungs remained empty and yet he wasn’t suffocating. His body was numb, but looking down he saw the wounds he had acquired in his life and they were bleeding, drenching his clothes in blood for a moment before they were gone again in the blink of an eye.

It was a strange mix of too little and too much, of nothing at all and everything at once and he had yet to wrap his head around it, but it sure as shit wasn’t Valhalla. Askeladd didn’t know whether he wanted to laugh or cry and when he opened his mouth to let out something in between, the sound was swallowed by the darkness so quickly he doubted for a moment that it had ever been there.

Where do I go after I die?

He had never been afraid of not going to Valhalla, that much was true. But to say that there were no possible answers to that question that would scare him would be a lie. There was one answer that frightened him more than anything else and he had never dared to say it out loud during his lifetime, but now, here, it didn’t matter anymore and when he uttered it into the abyss, the abyss sucked the words right up and said nothing back.

What if I don’t go anywhere?

He took pride in not getting too attached to people, but if he was being completely honest with himself, he had thought about Bjorn a lot. During his attempt at recovery, after the duel and even when he was bleeding out on the floor while Thorfinn screamed at him. Such an unpleasant brat, all around, not like Bjorn. Bjorn had always been very different from any other northman Askeladd had ever met. Not a genius by any means, not a moron either though. Empathetic, sensible, and way more in control than most people realized. In control of himself and his actions, of everything surrounding him. Sometimes Askeladd had thought that Bjorn even had a certain grasp on him, but it had never gotten to the point where he would’ve been ready to admit that Bjorn had seen through him. Because he just never had. And Askeladd had felt sorry about that many times - if there was one person who deserved to see through him just a little bit, it would have been Bjorn.

A small part of him had always hoped that there would be time for this in another life. Somewhere there wouldn’t be any wars to fight and secrets to keep and Askeladd couldn’t have cared less about what that other life would’ve looked like, but he would’ve followed Bjorn to Valhalla. He would’ve followed Bjorn anywhere, but apparently death didn’t care about that. Because Askeladd was nowhere and Bjorn was somewhere else where they wouldn’t open the gates for his kind. Bjorn had gone to Valhalla. Askeladd had just gone away.

“Son of a bitch went on without me,” he muttered to himself and it sounded like the voice of a stranger.

What if I don’t go anywhere?

What then? What now? He had sacrificed himself for the reign of a king he wouldn’t live to follow and the safety of a country that had never loved him back enough to justify the things he had done to protect it. And it had all been for nothing, or nothingness at least, because apparently he wouldn’t get anything else in return for his efforts. Maybe this was some kind of twisted reward; feeling nothing in exchange for all those years of pointless suffering. Askeladd banned that thought to the deepest depths of his brain before it could take roots. What, was he supposed to be grateful to be left alone in absolute silence? Eternal hellfire would be preferable to this.

So very perfidious. Outside noises had never bothered Askeladd as much as the noise inside his own head and to take away that layer of protection, to leave him in absolute silence with nothing to drown out his own thoughts, that was cruel. Nothing but cruel. Askeladd had always known that the gods were coldhearted and he had never expected them to give him peace. That was not a problem, he didn’t need peace. But that they’d push him out of all their realms, that they’d make him disappear… he almost had to salute that they had caught him off guard like that, but then again, who was he to ever arrogate the ability to outsmart the gods.

What if I don’t go anywhere?

The first step was always the hardest to take, even more so when you had no feeling in your body. But as soon as he had done it, an ever so slight ease overcame him and he took a deep breath of nothing as he took another step, and then the next one, and the next one. If he was afraid to get stuck, maybe he should start moving.

Where do I go after I die?

Askeladd highly doubted that he would ever reach an edge of the abyss, but you never knew. And if he couldn’t go anywhere, maybe wandering would be enough for now. Roaming the afterlife, seeing if there was an actual life for him to find. He had always been nothing if not an explorer.

I don’t know.

@atruewarrior you really seemed to like this idea, and you asked me to write it, so I did. Here you go☺️

I hope you like it

🌷 send this to ten bloggers you think are wonderful. keep the game going ! 🌷♡

Dee my favorite b-day buddy 🤍

Thank you so much for this, it's so sweet of you!!! 🥹 How have you been lately?

I have to catch up & read your recent works! Also, I can't wait to read the next chapter of the Royal AU fic you started for Levi Week!!!

Hugging you tight Love 💕

[littlerequiem]

💥 ✍️ 🍄 for the writing asks, please!🩵🤍

Hi Dee, thanks for stopping by <3

💥 Is there a chapter, scene, or WIP you're most excited to write? Share a snippet or tell us about it!

Okay, I just answered this here but I just realized I do have a snippet to share for another work, which is something that I wrote for a drabble prompt for @sixpennydame that turned into a whole smutty one-shot. This is the lead-up to something more ;))

“Don’t say shit like that. Anything is everything," Levi mutters. "Other people would abuse your willingness. You shouldn't speak so recklessly.” A moment passes by. You lick your lips, already moistened by the fog. Suddenly you recall the actual reason for being here. [...] It might be why you dare to say your next words: “Do you want to abuse my willingness?”

(I'm still editing this at my snail pace but I'm excited to share this.)

✍️ Which stat matters most to you (if at all!): subscriptions, kudos/favorites, comments, bookmarks, word count, or hits?

I try to not let engagement matter too much (try is the word) but comments are definitely up there for me. I love chatting with readers and getting their impressions on where they think the story is going to go.

🍄 Are there any fandoms you've never written for but want to try?

Vinland Saga, all because of you XD I'm almost done with S02 and I would love to write something for Thorfinn (Askeladd too, but I'm too intimidated for now). Another fandom I'd love to try is Blue Samurai.

Ask me about my 2024 writing goals.

Turns out I run out of yarn for my Sheep Blanket project - just needed one more ball than originally planned.

I went to get some more today, and came back with 7 balls of yarn: the one that was needed + 6 more for a new blanket I decided to do on a whim.

I also came back with a new volume of Vinland Saga, @atruewarrior.
