Sorry to burst in like this, but I've read some of your crozier & Blanky stuff and I'm... endeared and full of love. Blanky ready to follow him to the end of the world, stitched tight to this complicated bundle of a Irish officer through it all? I'm murdered in the best of ways. I don't have any real prompt, but I'd love something with young Francis and Thomas being awkward best buddies under Parry?
their relationship is so incredibly important and underrated!!!!!!!! thank you for appreciating it
i’ll get around to writing just frank & tom in 1827 eventually, but have this snippet from my ross/croz/blanky fic that takes place during the same time :)

Hello, I'm an old Tumblr user, coffeesugarcream or captainlattes. I'm no longer on Tumblr, but for personal reasons I would like to know if I was part of the bookclub chat on Discord and if I was active in it. I know the request is kind of strange, but it would be very important to me. Thanks in advance!
Hi, you were in bookclub! It's been a couple of years so I can't remember how active you were for sure, I think you read a few of the books with us? If you wanted to come back let me know.
I hope you are doing okay! Sometimes I think about your post about how acotar could have been really fae and magical and it was a great post. 💕

Tagged by @blasted-heath (I’m responding from this account, rather than from @tulliolaciceronis since this is where I keep my terrorposting, mainly – despite the ao3 name! ah, my life choices...) Thank you!!
Rules: post the last line you wrote, then tag as many people as there are words in that line. 
Francis nodded. “I did,” he said, simply to have spoken it aloud. “I still do.”
Tagged also by @sidleyparkhermit – giving you a more explicitly classical “last line” I wrote for a different fic! 
11/12) Translation of Latin Ode 1.3 by Horace (65 BCE – 8 BCE) in Peglar’s writing, dated 21 April 1848, and with the Latin phrase “animae dimidium meae” written in a different hand, above the English translation: “The other half of my soul.”
I assume most writers I know have already been tagged but I’m tagging 3 + 6 people anyway – @sailingsouthernseas @handfuloftime @heyktula @empirics @reserve @nedlittle @indifferent-century @owlboxes @captainlattes – no obligation, just appreciation! And anyone else who wants to, consider yourself tagged!

Moving
A recap of sorts. Here are the pieces I'm most proud of from my main blog. There'll be more to come, but for now:
Blue Temptation, Mermaid!Grindelwald
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My MerMay piece. The colors are what I'm most proud of with him. He'll be in the favorites for a long while.
Emerald, a gift to @captainlattes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This one gave me a few scares during coloring. A wild ride, trying to get him just right. The result though, well, I just hope it does the fic and it's writer justice.
Pomegranates, a gory study in scars
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Haha. Oh, it was only a matter of time. I wanted to experiment with anatomy and blood and gore and went a bit too wild with it. I love him though. Roughly inspired by that one piece of concept art that didn't make it into the film. I dare say we'd been robbed haha.
Well, that's them. Hopefully the tags read out. Tumblr's been iffy lately. And frankly it's starting to break me a bit. What can you do though [^ ^'].

IT'S DONE
I've been doing this for three years now, but the annual Pet!Graves painting in honor of @captainlattes 's The Heart Was A Stone is DONE!
(I procrastinated way too much on this so) HERE IT IS:
Tumblr media
And here is uncropped version with my phone shadow and totally assorted pens (and pencil):
Tumblr media
Hope you like it!
(and I hope Tumblr doesn't eat it)
Hopefully it's gotten much better than last year's try.

@mischiefs-hawk @hotforcaptaincold @silverynight @grimalkinmessor @willofhounds @captainlattes (even though I'm not sure you're in the FB fandom anymore? But you still wrote my first favorite beloved fic ever so...)
After a long journey, you finally reach the dark lord’s lair. Then your companion, who you met shortly after starting your quest, opens the door and says: “It’s nice to be at home again, come in I’ll make some tea.”

#the pose the height difference the loving way james cradles francis's head #it looks like... like they're giving each other such boundless needed comfort #such solace #in james's warm hands on his hair francis's breath on his neck #james's heart beating under his cheek; beating still for now for now #and francis is allowing himself to be scared: to be exactly how tired and terrified as he feels now all the time #so tired he could cry with it #James knows this#takes it in - it is francis's pain and nothing that comes from this man will ever be too much to bear #but still #he raises his eyes #he pleads to the heavens and silna's gods and his own and maybe no one at all #the land - the sky - humanity #he begs of it to give him the strength to hold francis up #to never let him feel he's unbearable (via @captainlattes)
wow you completely analyzed my every intention im crying i couldnt have said it better tho this is why i draw and dont write lmao

#YOOOOOO #which is my very scholarly comment for this awesome well-researched piece of information #I am... All for Francis knowing Latin and Greek and reading ancient philosophers #Gosh Francis reading Marcus Aurelius! #Francis reading Lucretius #Barely daring to breathe at the words of a man who ached and ached and couldn't stop aching and caring even if the world was killing him #Fixing the measure of a raw beauty and a perfect serenity he himself found unattainable #But for which he yearned all his life #Francis starting to lose his friends his companions #And wondering if he could bear the thought #The thought of them being no more of souls melting away back into atoms and being gone #He could think that of himself #But of James? Of Blanky? #He is human and he is a bad epicurean and he's trying to be a good man #And I love him so much for it (via @captainlattes​) 
Oh my god these tags are literature? (Also Francis reading Lucretius is a galaxy brain take and I want this fic so badly? And re: Stoics, I was 100% thinking Marcus Aurelius because Seneca would have driven Francis up a wall.) 
🌻
In the last letter Francis Crozier ever wrote to his friend Sir James Clark Ross (on July 9th, 1845, before Erebus and Terror sailed from Greenland) Crozier wrote about his emotional despondency, and added “I am I assure you beginning to be a bit of a philosopher and hope before the season is over to having tutored myself that I will fret for nothing,” which sounds perhaps like the words of a man reading the teachings of the ancient Stoics (GB 15 Francis Crozier Collection Ms 248 / 364; 26). 
We know something about Crozier’s education – he appears to have been an excellent student, and trained at a school that taught Greek and Latin, though he himself did not receive marks of excellence in these subjects (though, notably, he did not receive marks of excellence in geography, the field which was to become a central part of his career with the Discovery Service, so it is possible his Greek and Latin were in no way deficient.)

As tagged by the ever glorious @aethelar (freaked out when I saw that notification)
Tumblr media
I think that's accurate enough to my preferences? Some things might get switched around in the future because, em, circumstances? But otherwise, you know.....
Also, why is it almost always the painful, gut wrenching fics that are written so beautifully? Like, I know I can't stand to write happy shit for some reason, whatever that is, but other people? Makin' rose gardens and puff pastry and renesaince paintings out of the tears and skin and blood of my favorite characters? I'm not the only one with the condition to make shit sad all the time (it's chronic at this point)?
Anyway, tagging @willofhounds @grimalkinmessor @hotforcaptaincold @reina1505 and @captainlattes
[whenever you want, this was fun to make though]
Tumblr media
Tagged by @asmuchasidliketo - fanfic trope rankings (link here)! I judged mine by “how good does the writing have to be to convince me to try it” because let’s be honest, most tropes boil down to a well it depends kind of vibe.
Also some tropes squarely straddle the line of “done the way I like it I love it but done the way I don’t like it it’s the fastest I’ve ever closed a tab” and I didn’t really know how to rank those. So. Nyeh?
Tagging! @paintingraves @theabsolutemagicpotato @evening-rose-309 aaaaaand @vindsie
