#bonus Jeremy Irons

[frownyalfred]

Cracky Pennywaynes scenario for your appreciation:

I can't remember if Alfred was still around in that comic arc where Bruce’s parents mysteriously come back from the dead, but now I'm just picturing them, still as young as they were at the time of their deaths, deciding he aged like fine wine and they WILL be fucking that old man. It could easily go angst (especially Alfred's POV) but I'm too amused by everyone dealing with the revelation that Bruce got some things from both his parents (like being sexually forward)

Bonus question is who of the batfam (if anyone) accidentally walks in on them, and how scarred are they from what they see?

I am LIVING for the image of Jeremy Irons’ Alfred standing there with his arms crossed, refusing to be embarrassed about his age in front of his two old hookups. But still wistful, in his own way.

Meanwhile Martha and Thomas both looked at Alfred for a long, silent moment, turned to each other, then turned back to Alfred.

“No,” Alfred said, already recognizing that expression. “Absolutely not.”

ranking the avengers on how natural they sound in mandarin chinese

i recently watched the og avengers movie in cn dub with my grandparents, and it was... interesting. but not in a bad way. so i'm going to give my thoughts :)

captain america: he's fine, i think his voice actor did well. he sounds the most unnatural though. the juxtaposition between chris evans's face and the pitch perfect mandarin coming out of his mouth is so funny. his voice actor's delivery was giving 'genshin impact cutscene', which made his little arguments with tony hilarious.

iron man: HE'S ONE OF US??? i was so surprised but his voice actor was phenomenal and rdj really looked like he was speaking the language. his quips were translated perfectly. he was my grandparent's favorite and he's the most popular character in the chinese marvel fandom too, so his excellent portrayal contributed to that.

thor: i was in distress every time he was on screen because he looked and sounded exactly like my distant uncle. chris hemsworth looks like the kind of guy who could speak mandarin but only with a super thick accent. which isn't a bad thing but he gives very specific vibes.

bruce banner/the hulk: the lip syncing for him was so off imo. but like everyone else, his voice acting was decent. his dialogue was also wonderfully translated and the voice acting was the best in his science bros scenes with tony.

black widow: my favorite from the og 6!! i loved the voice actress's tone and delivery, but her pitch was way higher than scarjo's and that took me out. her 'he's adopted' line was funnier during this rewatch than in my previous watches in english.

hawkeye: jeremy renner looks just like my father so this was uncanny. therefore, no comments, except that like nat, his chinese voice actor was higher pitched than jeremy renner. his nickname in chinese roughly translates to 'little hawk' and that's so cute.

bonus loki: he's always such a diva. his voice actor was really twinking it out. five stars no notes.

i'm probably going to watch catws next, bc bucky's my boy and i hope he sounds good in cn dub

I finally got this done, i wanted to do a line up of my duck dodgers ocs for a while along with doing a little style experiment…

sooo without further ado…

Monarch Adonis Oleander is the current ruler of Faleniidae, he is ruling the planet with an iron fist, A cold, serious falenian who will stop at nothing to keep his place on the throne as well as control… Acantha Von Belladonna is a traveling assassin who is a smart induvial who is very playful…but dangerous. They used to work as the monarch's personal body guard…though they don't seem to talk about that life or their home much. Lady Rhea Muzaka is the daughter of a well known martian merchant who has trade routes in almost all corners of the galaxy. She is expected to eventually take over the family business though…she would rather be a historian. She is soft-spoken and very shy. But very passionate about history and preserving it. Jeremy Callahan is the son of a well known explorer within the Galactic Protectorate. Jeremy is a anxious man who can get very carried away when it comes to all things relating to science. However…it seems like he is one of the few who gets in the way of Acantha's plots..

So it's still a while till The Count of Monte Cristo limited series will se the light of day, but in the meantime, is there a reason for optimism for a Sam Claflin fan? This Sam Claflin fan, at least.

Regardless of the choices the adaptation will make, one thing sure is that Sam will give a flawless performance as the titular character, and any disguises that this will include. I think abbe Busoni and the English lord should appear at least (the French film had them). It'll be a good microcosm of his range. He has a good arc: from a young naive idealistic sailor to a broken down prisoner at Chateau D'If to a man obsessed with revenge to a man who makes amends and finds peace, it will be a delight!

It's Sam once again playing a character completely different from any other one he has played so far. And you know what, this is the one that I will finally be able to say will be my blorbo. (I rarely use that term, in fact I don't think I used it ever, but it applies now.) I've not really had a chance to have that with Sam. I like so many of his performances, but I've not had a fave character that got as close to my heart as Edmond.

I'm really hoping, after everything that went on around Daisy Jones and the Six, that this limited series based on a book will have a more mature fandom, not so rabidly focused on romance and shipping. *Crossing my fingers so hard they hurt, please please please please please, universe, don't let Edmond x Mercedes shippers take over everything, please please please please please* (FWIW I don't think Edmond x Mercedes shippers are that crazy, but you never know what kind of stupid a new TV show might bring.) If it should happen that Tumblr discovers this show, I'm hoping that they will go for: 1. Maximilian x Valentine, the Romeo & Juliet star-crossed lovers, 2. Eugenie x Louise, the lesbians (I mean, canon HEA lesbians in period drama?) 3. the gay shipping. Albert x Franz, Albert x Edmond or even Franz x Edmond, or Edmond x any of the three antagonists. This is probably the best bet, tbh. While it may get annoying if the tag will get overtaken by shippers, I know I will not be the only one who will be annoyed by that. As long as Sam's performance is not reduced to romance only, it'll be fine. Which brings me to...

Chemistry. Oh dear. Okay, so if that word will get a mention, I hope this will be about Sam having chemistry with any/all of his co-stars, not just Ana Girardot; after all, they don't have that many scenes together. If it's with Jeremy Irons I won't mind. As there is a lot going on in the story, the show will simply not have time to dedicate long scenes to Sam looking at a co-star.

And last but not least, as Sam is the only actor in leading role, everyone else being a supporting character, all the promo and everything that will come with the series will concentrate on him and him only. Nobody, nobody will hog the limelight from him!

Bonus: awards?

Phineas and Ferb/Avatar The Last Airbender team up idea

Phineas and Aang

Isabella and Katara

Ferb and Sokka

Stacy and Suki

Candace and Zuko

Jeremy and Mai

Perry and Toph

Vanessa and Ty lee

Heinz and Iroh.

Buford and Momo

Baljeet and Appa.

Suzy and Azula.

Bonus’s and complications:

Aang helping Phineas with the Daily Project while Isabella and Katara get into a bragging match over whose boyfriend is the best.

I can just imagine Ferb’s single episode line. Directed at sokka who’s been trying to make him laugh all episode. “You try too hard”. It would deal Sokka psychological damage. I like to think it’d make Mai laugh though.

Candace would be….unimpressed with Zuko. Far too angsty for her. He’d probably try to give her a life lesson though. Mai would find Jeremy amusing. Almost like a science project. They’re both basically fairly easy going people. Just at different ends of the spectrum. So they’d probably get along more or less.

Suki would try to teach Stacy how to fight. It would not go well. But she’d try. And at the end of the day. Isn���t that what truly matters?

Toph would put them all in danger though. Perry would have to try and take her down. She’d be able to sense the OWCA locations under the garden.

Vanessa would be driven to tears of distraction by Ty Lee’s unending perkiness. Then her dark side is revealed. And Vanessa gets a new friend. Until the perkiness comes back. Then OWCA gets a new recruit.

Heinz gets some unintentional therapy from Iroh. Ie; Iroh just wants to make tea but Heinz sees it as profound philosophical metaphors which he completely and utterly understands. Ironically when Iroh actually does try to give him advice. Heinz is completely, utterly and totally lost. Go figure huh?

Momo likes Buford. Buford gives him biscuits and cheese. Then Buford feeds him far, far too much biscuits and cheese. And he tries his utmost to escape. A flying lemur can only take so much food you know? It’s not Buford’s fault. But Momo only has so much room for that amount of food you know?

Baljeet initially thinks that Appa is one of the boys Daily Projects. Then Appa eats half the grass. And Baljeet is proved wrong. Needless to say he does not take that very well. But he eventually calms down enough that he’s comfortable with flying. Even if Appa’s saddle doesn’t have any proper seatbelts.

Candace and Zuko go to great physical, mental, emotional and psychological pains to ensure that Suzy and Azula never, ever meet. Because they know that the world would stand absolutely zero hope of survival if that ever happened.

FROM RECENT OC ASKS PLEASE OH PLEASE 1 FOR CERBERUS AND KIA I BEG

😅I love the intensity of this ask, anon. And delighted to answer!

1) Does your OC have a voice claim, if so who? Cerberus, as usual, is an amalgamation of things - in this case, Jeremy Irons (pitch, timbre, tone), Tom Hiddleston (accent), plus a bit of Charles Dance (elocution/enunciation). He speaks beautifully.

Jeremy Irons in this interview is pretty damn close And Tom Hiddleston here, in bonus casual housebound outfit that is ALSO pretty damn close I thought Kia was going to be really easy to track down a similar sounding woman (Australian originally, middle-class, "bright" sort of tone) but it actually took a while! Most were too broad/'ocker' or too highbrow or too shrill. Anyway, settled on Carla Bonner in this interview. The content won't mean much unless you happen to be a Neighbours fan lol, but her tone and pitch is quite Kia-like, anyway.

[thespineoftherighteous]

what’s your ranking of Kevin Day ships?

gorgeous gorgeous question.

if you want to give me specific ones I can definitely do that but I'll just go with the more common ones for now. (also sorry if this is a test and I'm supposed to say like. Kevin and Himself. but if it is, I'm going to fail)

Kevin/Allison. first and foremost. girl you'd think that this would be ironically but no. they're hot, they're fiesty, they'd definitely be some degree of toxic, at least at first. they serve and slay etc. no matter how you go about it, their get-together will always eat because how do you put two people like *that* in any kind of relationship without it being delicious. I was on a bit of a kevallison kick some time ago I need to start thinking about them more (the way I said "common" and started off with one of the least popular ones)

if we're strictly talking romantic ships then kandreil goes here (classic) but if including non romantic ships then Kevin/Andrew because what even the HELL is that they're so good they're so good

I've never really indulged much into Kevin/Jeremy stuff but Kevin having a crush on Jeremy is scrumptious to me. just the way he canonically is with Jeremy is wonderful

another non romantic pairing (definitely derailing here) but Matt/Kevin. I think they have a fun canon relationship and great potential for even more. bonus points for Kevin having a small crush on matt

I'm not super serious about Kevin/Aaron but I've indulged and I've had some fun times with them like it's so random it doesn't make much sense but that's so great.

I'm not really thinking of any others, besides Jean/Kevin which for some reason? doesn't really compel me?

[thornquillthefiendish]

did you draw crowhawk hypokits yet? o3o

When you sent this I hadn’t but since I should’ve by this point-

I made one!

This is Falconflight, first born son of Hawkfrost and Crowfeather (I might make more). More info on his story under the cut

So in this relatively feel-good au, Hawkfrost decides instead of just a quick grift to just. Commit to moving to WindClan during the conflict, while originally it’s for the plan he and mudclaw have brewing, eventually things settle down before anyone can die and mudclaw remains deputy while Onestar eases into leadership a bit better. Hawk and Crow have known eachother before this and have had a thing for each other so not long after hawkfrost has Falconkit, he’s a single kit since they’re still like young adults and he was definitely conceived out of excitement that they could have kits without severe judgement (at least not as severe as a “full fledged” halfclan kit). Falconkit is raised well by his fathers, oddly enough, between two obnoxious idiots he becomes weirdly well adjusted and…very sweet? Despite his tall, dark intimidating looks, Falconflight is a big softy, which no one expected out of hawkfrost and crowfeathers union, and he’s always been notably soft spoken compared to his parents. Falconkit becomes a paw around Breezekits birth, which still happens, but he’s not Crowfeather’s son since him and Nightcloud don’t have a reason to get together, instead Nightcloud has kits with an unknown source (insert your ship here). Hawkfrost and Nightcloud are actually decently good friends so when the litter is unfortunately born mostly stillborn, hawkfrost lends his support and breezekit and Nightcloud become honorary family to them, with breezekit and falconpaw growing up close. Breezepelts later rebellion is still fueled by “daddy” issues, but the issue is he doesn’t know who that is even.

In his more interpersonal plot, Falconflight had experienced strange dreams as a kit, often of a shadowy woodland where a dark tabby would step out from the undergrowth and speak to him. Hawkfrost would often stay awake to guard his son while he slept, waking him from the nightmares when he felt him stir. The dreams would fade before apprenticeship, and Falconflight carries little to no memories of them ever occurring. His mentor was mudclaw, and yet again somehow none of that rubbed off on him. He’s known in his adulthood as a heartthrob, even openly spoken of outside of WindClan, but he remains ambiguous about his love life. He’s just oddly very good and kind and there is no catch, I mean it legit he’s just. A soft man. That being said, he’s extremely intimidating having inherited a very distinct set of traits from his dads, mainly being Crowfeather’s distinct facial shapes (very oriental cat breed esc) and Tigerstars genes which made him a bit more muscular than most WindClanners, something that must’ve skipped over hawkfrost somehow. He’s inherited some personality traits from his fathers even though he is simply too kind to be from either of them, for example, he makes terrible jokes and puns, but unlike hawkfrost he actually thinks it’s very funny. They enjoy torturing Crowfeather. We still don’t know what he got from Crowfeather, and maybe he lucked out there.

Bonus; if he were to have a voice it’d be Jeremy Irons, just to add to the whiplash that is his personality.

What hair styles do you have in mid when you think of the Batfam? Their hair of course changes depending on the years and who draws them, but there's like a certain default style that each person typically gets drawn in. What is yours?

Despite being a very visual person, I usually don't get super fixated on how the character looks while I'm writing them. Is that odd? I'm not sure. There's a few exceptions (Lex in ASOH, Clark in bloodletting, etc) but usually I describe the outlines of what I want readers to notice, and let them fill in the stuff that isn't super important to my visualization.

But in general?

I like Dick's hair longer and slightly wavy. I think it's stupid he doesn't wear a helmet and has it out, especially long enough to grab a handful, but it's pretty. I get it. It's dark and has lots of layers.

Bruce's hair is just at the edge of what's acceptably long enough to be gelled back. Dark, but not quite as dark as Dick's hair. Thick, and he starts going grey at the temples around his mid to late thirties.

Tim -- anything that isn't a buzzcut, tbh. Bald Tim traumatized me. I think he has slightly lighter hair than the other Robins -- more of a dark brown. Gets a little red in the summer.

Jason, I like with more of a tapered fade with it longer on top to highlight his white streak. It's a little curly if he doesn't style/cut it.

Damian -- I don't have an opinion, though sometimes people draw him with really weird short hair to kind of make him seem childish on purpose? I think he should have Talia's hair tbh.

Cass, hot take -- it should either be really short so she can put it up under her cowl, or long enough to braid back. Having it in the middle and layered just means it's harder to keep manageable. (Before anyone jumps in to ask why I don't have the same problem for Dick, he refuses to wear anything on his head and has clearly accepted the risk of getting yanked around by his hair. Cass is smarter than that lol)

Steph -- same as Cass, I like her hair blonde but it's also very bright and recognizable which is a problem I have with Kate's hair too. If the hair is part of the costume and it's unusual, that's terrible for your secret identity. And if it's down all the time, it's sweaty and in your face. As someone who braids her hair back in the gym frequently, once it hits a certain length you really have to do something.

Duke -- I really love all of the various hairstyles he's had, but same issue as Cass arises. It's gotta fit under the cowl.

Bonus: Alfred. I love Jeremy Irons' version, I can't lie. His full head of hair but grey worked really well. Bald/thinning hair Alfred is a canon staple, don't get me wrong. But it gives him even more elegance/regality in my mind, you know? I love young michael caine as an inspo for him, those blonde curls were something else.

Movies I watched this Week # 148 (Year 3/Week 44):

“… Would you go without her?… “

No bears, my 5th and favourite meta-film by persecuted Iranian director Jafar Panahi. Made in secret and illegally while being prohibited by the Ayatollahs. It's a slick and sharp fictionalized metaphor about a director, played again by himself, who rents a room in a tiny, primitive village near the Turkish border, while directing a movie long-distance about a couple who wants to escape Iran.

It's impossible to separate the fiction from reality. This is like a serious 'La Nuit américaine' with real-life consequences. Panahi was sentenced to 6 years in jail a month after the premier of the film. What kind of movies could he make, had he born in a "normal" country?

There's always the noise of traffic, when you're in the city. But it ends with the barks of country dogs at night. 9/10.

🍿

“ … So you’re a rocket scientist?…”

How many times have I seen J.C. Chandor's masterly thriller Margin Call in the last couple of years? At least half a dozen, and I simply can't get enough. After 'The Wolf of Wall Street' re-watch last week, I had to do it one more time. It's interesting that the movie doesn't show what they actually do, except of the end, after the long night is over. The muted score... The bridge story... the top-notch performances.

Noted this time: Stanley Tucci got $1,411,768 in extra bonus to stay at the office one last day - why such a sum? Also, the credits listed 12 people on the ‘Jeremy Irons miracle visa team’...

A perfect 10/10 - "Best Wall Street move ever made".

🍿

Third re-watching of György Pálfi’s immersive mashup Final Cut, Ladies and Gentlemen a ‘supercut’ of 451 clips from the most famous films in history. It’s a meta-love story, told through a montage of scenes edited together from all those other films.

It proves the power of the good editor. Also, how visual tropes and cinematic cliches repeat themselves again and again throughout history; Running through wheat fields, a whistling kettle, lovers kissing in the rain, a mirror is being smashed, clutching a child to one’s bosom, the clicking of keyboard...

And now you just want to watch and re-watch every single one of these 451 movies where the clips are from... Absolutely fantastic.

🍿

Another French classic, Peppermint Soda, my first by Diane Kurys. A sweet coming of age story of two charming sisters, 13 and 15 years old in Paris of 1963. Very similar in spirit, 'feel' and maturity as Truffaut's '400 Blows', but with girl-centric focus, which is so refreshing. She managed to write and direct this little masterpiece without having any prior experience in movie-making!

The 13-year-old who played the main character, Éléonore Klarwein, looks so familiar, but doesn't even have a Wikipedia page!

I'm going to seek the rest of Kurys work. Most delightful discovery of the week!

🍿

3 more by prolific French director Patrice Leconte:

🍿 I’ve only seen his ‘The man on the train’ before. Monsieur Hire was based on a mystery novel by Georges Simenon. It tells of a bald, lonely, middle age tailor who falls in love with young Sandrine Bonnaire, who lives in the apartment across from his. This was one of the last films that Roger Ebert added to his 'Great movies' list. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

🍿 Gérard Depardieu starred in ~ 250 movies. One of his latest was playing Maigret, one of the original old-time detectives. A large and tired, but very humane figure, he's quietly trying to discover the circumstances behind a murder of a lonely young woman. (Photo Above).

🍿 The Boléro drummer is a 1992 wordless short. It comically focuses on the frustrated facial expressions of a drummer, while participating in a performance of Ravel's piece.

🍿

I’m your man, my second film by German director Maria Schrader (after ‘She said’). An updated version to Spike Jonze's 'Her', where it's not only the voice but a complete human android they fall in love with. A better-than-usual Black Mirror romcom, with growing emotional resonance. It, unsurprisingly, ends in a sleepy seaside Danish village! 7/10.

🍿

Tarkovsky's lyrical debut feature Ivan’s childhood about a Soviet boy hero in WW2 fighting the Nazis. Not what I expected, minimalist poetry.

🍿

3 more by Martin Ritt:

🍿 “… You’re an unprincipled man, Hud…”

Hud, a Neo-Western about a self-centered, indecent bastard, an amoral anti-hero Paul Newman, and his proud, old-fashioned father. Played in a dying small west-Texas town, of the 'Last Picture Show' bleakness and despair kind. Based on a Larry McMurtry novel, and featuring Patricia Neal as a housekeeper who was hurt before, and won't be again, if she can help it. There's a scene where a large herd of cows, possibly infected with Foot-and-mouth disease, is being shot in a culling pit that is very hard to watch. 8/10.

🍿 Stanley & Iris, Martin Ritt's final film, and the only one where Robert de Nero is getting around on a bicycle. A romantic working class tearjerker that didn't work; A large commercial bakery where most of the work was done by hand, an illiterate laborer who becomes fabulously successful once he learns to read (and the tired cliche of a person walking in the middle of the street instead of the sidewalk..) 2/10.

🍿 Re-watch: The political drama about the 1950's Hollywood blacklisters, The front. A superficial study of the workings and effects of McCarthyism, made 2 decades later by a group of writers who were boycotted themselves. But Woody Allen was an obnoxious actor always playing obnoxious characters, even here, when he didn't mean to be funny. Dated and two-dimensional. 3/10.

🍿

Another Red Scare re-watch, Don Siegel's alien invasion allegory Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The originator of the 'Pod people' conspiracy concept. The fear of losing one's 'originality' and 'personality' when confronted with conformity and mass acceptance. In retrospect, the conclusions and explanations had a low 'Twilight Zone' quality.

🍿

The body, a convoluted Spanish crime mystery that predictably plays it by the numbers. There were two scene that elevated it from a complete bore-fest: An outrageously disgusting one, when the accused husband tears an incriminating letter in a dirty toilet, and when it doesn’t flush, he has to fish it out and swallow it. And the final, unexpected twist, that came out of left field. 2/10.

🍿

4 comedies I haven’t seen before:

🍿 ... "We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here and we want them now..."

Withnail & I, an odd, Ralph Steadman-like, off-beat British classic satire, about 2 drunk slackers, unemployed actors, who escape to an unheated, falling-down cottage in the country. Punkish Richard E. Grant debut film.

🍿 “who wants a mustache ride?”

Super troopers, a sophomoric, noisy, crude and low-brow comedy, that wasn't as stupid as it sounds. With Brian Cox and Lynda Carter.

🍿 I Love You Phillip Morris, a misguided gay romance with Jim Carrey that can't decide if it's a tender drama about a conman, or a low-brow comedy full of gay stereotypes. Fake cliches all the way. With Hair's Annie Golden. 2/10.

🍿 Jennifer’s body, a female-focused horror written by Diablo Cody. I watched it only because of one insightful review on 'Letterbox', but the tenets of the horror genre simply don't work for me. Gave it 25 minutes, then gave it up, sorry.

🍿

I've seen 7 of Paolo Sorrentino's 10 features so far, so I wanted to indulge with his HBO-series, The young pope, with Jude Law playing a rebellious American pope. The first episode was typically stylish, and beautifully irreverent. But the premise of the Vatican letting an un-vetted young mutt to take over the institution is so ridiculous, that after 2 hours I had to bail out.

🍿

3+ female-directed shorts:

🍿 'A Seaman’s Life Flashes Before His Eyes', in the Oscar nominated Canadian short The flying sailor. It is based on the real life Halifax explosion that happened in 1917, where a sailor was blown through the air and survived.

🍿 Muta, by Argentinian Lucrecia Martel; A group of 8 well-dressed models on a barge sailing the Amazon river. Creepy, unexplained, experimental. My 2nd from the Miu Miu collection of Women's tales.

🍿 Zoe Cassavetes’s (John’s daughter) The Powder Room. Basically, a clothing ad. 1/10.

🍿 Also, Capitol of Conformity, a Dystopian Short Film created by AI and by Aze Adora.

🍿

The Count of Monte Cristo short clip of Edmond and abbe Faria - my thoughts

I said it when the first picture of him in the role was released, Jeremy Irons is just perfect as abbe Faria, and this scene shows it all the more so. He is the right level of unhinged. How good is that scene, though? We see an old man, who is undoubtedly a very wise old man, wanting to share a fortune and knowledge with a young man, who looks all broken and bereft of life. I love that he teaches him table manners (also like it sounds like a good advice? at least it all makes sense to me). Edmond is like, wtf is this old dude talking about, but he slowly starts going along with it. It's truly amazing how Faria was able to keep his humanity after so many years in solitary confinement.

I like the use of music in the scene too (the score will be good if nothing else). All in all, 10/10!

Bonus: I appreciate that Faria's mention of "beautiful fingers". Sam Claflin has nice hands.

Jake followed him. 

"Jeremy. Why are we walking straight into the sea?" He said, making sure to lock the car behind them. 

"I'm gonna go drown myself." Jeremy said flippantly, not looking over his shoulder.

character(s) you haven’t written about before but plan on writing about soon:

Henry Morgan (from Forever tv) !! also, I’d love to write more about Captain Jack Sparrow

fandom(s) you’re currently writing for:

Harrow & Stranger Things

platonic pairing(s) you currently write for:

Daniel Harrow & Simon Van Reyk (Harrow), Henry Creel & Eleven (Stranger Things)

romantic pairing(s) you currently write for:

I know it’s been more than a year since my last update so I can’t say currently, but Loki/Mobius. other than that the more recent one is Will Byers/Mike Wheeler but even then, it’s still rare. so I guess I focus more on writing platonic relationships lately (honestly it just depends on the characters whom my hyperfixation is on and whether their relationship with the other characters is romantic or platonic.)

snippet of the wip you’re currently working on:

should be posted hopefully within the next few days!

But Harrow forced a smile as he greeted Simon with a hug. And when he hugged Simon, his smile became real. And for a moment Harrow could forget the guilt and the shame he carried with him. For a moment, he could really breathe, knowing that Simon was safe. In his arms.

* aka a fix-it fic where Simon lives.
