La vida da muchas vueltas, pero, a veces, no nos damos cuenta de que la Tierra es redonda y siempre hay una oportunidad para volver a empezar. Y quien realmente merece la pena está dispuesto a darlas contigo, sujetando todos y cada uno de tus miedos. Eso es lo que encontrarás en estas páginas. Aquí dentro podría contarse tu historia, la historia de cómo las pequeñas cosas hacen que el corazón nos lata un poquito más deprisa. Antes de comenzar a leer este libro, deberías preguntarte lo siguiente: Si mañana todo acabara, ¿repetirías lo que estás haciendo hoy con esa persona? Yo lo tengo claro: «Contigo, una y otra vez.»

Giacomo Agostini talking about Marc Marquez’s 2024 season (and overall career) in the preface of Marc Marquez, l’amour du risque : “My only regret in all of this, is that Valentino and him didn’t manage to bury the hatchet. They are the two biggest champions of the modern GP era and it’s about time that they both admit to it.”

Valiant by Sarah McGuire

Retellings in general (especially Cinderella retellings)

Golden Age mysteries, especially Josephine Tey and Agatha Christie

D.E. Stevenson books (and other mid-tier vintage light fiction)

Wilkie Collins books

Graphic novels

And I'm sure there are others that I'm forgetting

[tvckerwash]

man, I've always thought that wash was the most 'master chief-y' character in rvb—with carolina also having a lot of the same qualities based solely off of what I knew about him from the games—but now that I’ve read the fall of reach, I can say with 100% certainty that they both take after john.

(utc bc it's another long post lol)

carolina takes very heavily after master chief’s competitive side, and teamwork was not a skill that came to him naturally. there’s a scene very early in the book right after john and the rest of the kids were first conscripted into the spartan program where everyone is split into teams, and they’re told to complete an obstacle course and compete to be the first ones to ring a bell at the end of it. the last team to ring the bell wouldn’t be getting dinner (and for context, these are a bunch of 6 year olds who spent the last however many hours being forced into the same grueling physical activities grown adults are on their first day in boot camp).

john, who was absolutely starving, abandoned his teammates because he believed they were just going to slow him down, and he was right—he was the first to ring the bell, but his teammates were the last two to do so. but, john was punished for doing that, and he didn’t get to have dinner alongside the teammates he left behind (and he was so hungry he even secretly stole some of the food from a girl he was sitting next to while she wasn’t looking).

this experience deeply impacted john, he corrected his mistake the next day, and in a future training exercise done years later, him and his fellow spartans were dropped off in the middle of the mountains and told to compete to get the extraction point, and the last person there was going to be left behind and would have to walk back to the base. I think I’ll let john tell you his thoughts on that himself:

“One more thing,” Mendez said. “The last trainee to make it to the extraction point will be left behind.” He glanced out a window. “And it’s a very long walk back.” John didn’t like it. He wasn’t going to lose, but he didn’t want anyone else to lose, either. The thought of Kelly or Sam or any of the others marching all the way back made him uneasy…if they could make it all the way back alone over those mountains. 

+

They stopped at noon to stretch and eat berries they had gathered along the trail. Fhajad spoke up. “I want to know one thing,” he said. He paused to wipe the sweat off his dark skin. “We’re going to get to the extraction point at the same time. So who’s getting left behind? We should decide now.” “Draw straws,” someone suggested.  “No,” John said, and stood. “No one’s being left behind. We’re going to figure a way to get all of us out.”  “How?” Kelly asked, scratching her head. “Mendez said—” “I know what he said. But there’s got to be a way—I just haven’t thought of one yet. Even if it has to be me that stays behind—I’ll make sure everyone gets back to the base.” John started marching again. “Come on, we’re wasting time.” 

Carolina is portrayed very, very similarly to the way john is above through most of s9, and it’s only when her obsession with beating tex starts to take a priority that she becomes more like john was as a child. In s10 her characterization becomes more juvenile, and that’s where she truly reverts to the 6 year old john who will abandon his teammates because being first takes priority in her mind. 

Another blurb of text that I find very applicable to Carolina as a character is this:

“Irritated, sir?” John asked, genuinely puzzled. He would have thought the UNSC top brass would be elated by the victory, despite its cost. “But we won.” Captain Keyes took a step back and cocked a quizzical eyebrow. “Didn’t Dr. Halsey ever teach you that winning isn’t everything, Master Chief?” He saluted. “You’ll excuse me.” John saluted. He was so confused by Captain Keyes’ statement that he kept saluting as the Captain walked out of the room. Winning was everything. How could someone with Captain Keyes’ reputation think otherwise? The Master Chief tried to recall if he had ever read anything like that in any military history or philosophy texts. What else was there other than winning? The only other obvious choice was losing…and he had long been taught that defeat was an unacceptable alternative. Certainly, Captain Keyes didn’t mean that they should have lost at Sigma Octanus? Unthinkable. He stood silently for ten minutes mulling this over.

wash on the other hand seems to take queues from various other aspects of master chief’s character shown throughout the book. If I had to sum up these bits and bobs I’d say he takes inspiration from john’s more serious and practical side, or rather, the side of john that is ‘less human’.

I’ve talked about how I’m not a big fan of wash and locus being foils on chorus because miles picked the wrong aspects of what it means to be a soldier to focus on when it comes to wash, but beyond that I do actually see wash as the more soldier like character between him and carolina. 

wash is a character who has a very strong sense of duty, and he takes whatever he believes his duty is very seriously. wash is hyperaware of his position, and while he can—and does—read between the lines, he prefers to keep things simple and straightforward. he’s not a scientist, he’s not a psychologist, he’s a soldier—just hand him a gun and tell him where to shoot. these two blurbs sum wash up very nicely:

John only knew three ways to react to people. If they were his superior officers, he obeyed them. If they were part of his squad, he helped them. If they were a threat, he neutralized them.

+

“You engaged and neutralized a threat,” Mendez replied. “That action seems to have answered your question, Squad Leader.”  John wrinkled his forehead as he thought it through. “I followed the chain of command,” he said. “The Sergeant told me to fight. I was threatened and in imminent danger. But they were still UNSC Special Forces. Fellow soldiers.” Mendez lowered his voice. “Not every mission has simple objectives or comes to a logical conclusion. Your priorities are to follow the orders in your chain of command, and then to preserve your life and the lives of your team. Is that clear?” “Sir,” John said. “Yes, sir.” He glanced back at the ring. Blood was seeping into the canvas mat. John had an odd feeling in the pit of his stomach. He hit the showers and let the blood rinse off him. He felt strangely sorry for the men he had killed. But he knew his duty—the Chief had even been unusually verbose in order to clarify the matter. Follow orders and keep himself and his team safe. That’s all he had to focus on. John didn’t give the incident in the gym another thought.

another scene that I want to share is this one, as upon reading it I immediately imagined that wash’s meeting with internals in s9 probably went very similarly: 

Finally one of the officers deigned to notice the Master Chief. “At ease, soldier,” he said. The Master Chief let his arm fall. “Spartan 117, reporting as ordered, sirs.”  There was a pause, then the woman’s voice spoke up, “We would like to congratulate you on your successful mission, Master Chief. You’ve certainly given us plenty to consider. We would like to pin down a few details of your mission.” There was something in her voice that made John nervous. Not scared. But it was the same feeling he had going into combat. The same feeling he got when bullets started flying. “You do know, Master Chief,” the first male voice said, “that not answering truthfully—or omitting any relevant details will lead to a court-martial?” John bristled. As if he could ever forget his duty. “I will answer to the best of my abilities, sir,” he replied stiffly. 

anyway, another blurb I want to bring up is this one involving dr. halsey speaking to cortana about john, and I feel how it relates to wash is self-explanatory. It’s really only the very last paragraph that’s important, but I’m including the whole scene because imagining a similar conversation between the director and alpha is SO funny to me (insert the gay robot joke lmao).

Cortana leaped to her “feet,” turned her back to Dr. Halsey, and examined the photographs on the wall. She brushed her fingertips over the glass surfaces. “Which one will be mine?” “Which one do you want?” She immediately gravitated to the picture in the center of Dr. Halsey’s collection. It showed a handsome man standing at attention as Admiral Stanforth pinned the UNSC Legion of Honor upon his chest—a chest that already overflowed with citations. Cortana framed her fingers around the man’s face. “He’s so serious,” she murmured. “Thoughtful eyes, though. Attractive in a primitive animal sort of way, don’t you think, Doctor?” Dr. Halsey blushed. Apparently, she did think so. Cortana’s thoughts mirrored many of her own, only unchecked by normal military and social protocol. “Perhaps it would be best if you picked another—” Cortana turned to face Dr. Halsey and cocked an eyebrow, mock stern. “You asked me which one I wanted…” “It was a question, Cortana. I did not give you carte blanche to select your ‘carrier.’ There are compatibility issues to consider.” Cortana blinked. “His neural patterns are in sync with my mine within two percent. With the new interface we’ll be installing, that should fall well within tolerable limits. In fact—” Her gaze drifted and the symbols along her body brightened and flashed. “—I have just developed a custom interface buffer that will match us within zero point zero eight one percent. You won’t find a better match among the others. “In fact,” she added coyly, “I can guarantee it.” “I see,” Dr. Halsey said. She pushed away from her desk, stood, and paced. Why was she hesitating? The match was superb. But was Cortana’s predilection for Spartan 117 a result of him being Dr. Halsey’s favorite? And did it matter? Who better to protect him? Dr. Halsey walked over to the picture. “He was awarded this Legion of Honor medallion because he dove into a bunker of Covenant soldiers. He took out twenty by himself and saved a platoon of Marines who were pinned down by a stationary energy weapon emplacement. I’ve read the report, but I’m still not sure how he managed to do it.”  She turned to Cortana and stared into her odd translucent eyes. “You’ve read his CSV?” “I’m reading it again right now.” “Then you know he is neither the smartest nor the fastest nor the strongest of the Spartans. But he is the bravest—and quite possibly the luckiest. And in my opinion, he is the best.”

I’m pretty sure there's actually a joke somewhere in the show where wash says he’s only the third favorite behind tex and carolina, but considering they’re literally the director's wife and daughter I think being third is still worth something here lol.

but all of that aside, I want to end this post with one last blurb because of how it relates to both carolina and wash, and why I think it’s so important that they’re the two freelancers who survived to the end, and how they both take after master chief.

If Dr. Halsey had a mission for him and his team, it would be a good one. She had given him everything: duty, honor, purpose, and a destiny to protect humanity. John hoped she would give him one more thing: a way to win the war.

The wooden floorboards creek and croak under the clickety clack of your newly acquired gilded leather boots as you make your way up to the deck, over vast hordes of fortune, past engorged piles of gold and spice, doubloons and silks, navigating mazes of stacked chests brimming with books and boundless scrolls. You tip- toe around your comatose crewmates, satiated by plunder and ransacked stores of rum, to the mast of your ship, and look out onto the horizon.

Heliotrope hues of dusk creep up behind the melting sunset, calming the raging gusts of the sea to caresses of the breeze. Wisps of ghostly silver swirl hazily amongst sporadic speckles of spangling starlight like a stewing soup in the sky, its delicate marbling mirrored on waves that twinkle under the moonlight. Skull and crossbones whip in the wind and the ship rocks lazily as if lulled to sleep by the cradle of the sloping sea. You sigh, contented, and pray to avoid a watery grave for many moons to come.

Hello! Thought I'd ask just out of curiosity, why do you keep your Ao3 user exclusive, whereas you website is free to read? Did something happen to Ao3 that writers should know of, or is it just a personal choice?

Hello there,

I used to leave my AO3 public, but recently there has been a rise in AI and non-official apps scraping fics from AO3, from which the only way to prevent that is to require a login. I have put a lot of work into my fics and am strictly anti AI, so unfortunately I had to lock my fics to users for that reason.

I would honestly prefer to have it open, but I highly suggest that you make an AO3 account if you haven’t yet because more and more writers are having to archive-lock their fics to protect their work.

If something happens where that’s no longer a danger, I will certainly unlock my fics then… but such is the current digital landscape, unfortunately.

Como mudar a capa de um livro no kindle!

Aproveitei a oportunidade, estava querendo ler um livro, porém, a capa dele era muito desregular e visualmente isso me incomodava, então, eis aqui o processo.

Como já diz no título, nesse post vou ensinar como mudar a capa de exibição dos ebook's para qualquer imagem que queira.

Claro que, além de escolher a imagem que deseja, vai ser necessário ter apenas 1 programa no computador.

Esse programa é o Calibre.

Para adicionar o arquivo do livro que deseja, pode ser clicando em adicionar livros, no canto superior esquerdo, ou, pegar o livro e arrastar para essa tela, ou até mesmo clicando no botão direito do mouse no arquivo e "abrir com"

Após isso, só vai precisar clicar com o botão direito do mouse no arquivo, editar metadados e depois editar metadados individualmente.

Após abrir essa tela, o processo tende a ser um pouco intuitivo, mas, vamos com o processo restante, que é mudar a capa e salvar.

Agora é apenas escolher a imagem da capa que deseja colocar.

É importante ressaltar que a imagem em questão precisa ser em PNG.

Após isso, selecionar "ok" e já vai ter salvo a edição.

Em seguida "Salvar no Disco", escolha o local que deseja que a pasta seja criada.

Uma nova pasta então será criada com o nome do autor ou autora.

Após abrir a pasta, você vai ver 3 arquivos, mas apenas o arquivo Epub que vai interessar.

Agora, só vai ser preciso enviar o arquivo epub para o seu telegram e então envia-lo para o seu kindle, ou enviar para o drive e enviar para o kindle, ou ate mesmo da forma que está acostumado a fazer.

So a little while ago I reblogged a post about downloading Ao3 fics and in the tags I freaked out a bit about how awesome it is you can save your stuff in epub.

For context; in the editing courses I've taken, we talked a bit about how preparing epub files takes some effort bc they need to have extra programming in them to accommodate for things like adjusting the font size on the fly on e-readers, or internal links for notes/references, etc. So knowing that Ao3 generates a generic but very workable epub of your file, for free, really tickled me bc I think that's just awesome.

And it works really well! I use a desktop reader called Calibre (which is free btw, I highly recommend) for my ebooks which has its own tts, lets you highlight, leave bookmarks, etc. Ao3's epubs incorporate the tags, summary, and chapter notes in a really clean way. Check it out:

All the tags, warnings, ratings, and links to the originals are on their own automatically-generated "Preface" page. And the fic summary gets its own page as well:

Chapters with notes will have them where they are located in the original (ie. beginning or end notes.) Chapters with end notes hyperlink within the document to jump to the end of the chapter to view those notes

And that Afterword page? Links directly to the Comment function of the fic you downloaded it from! Super convenient!

Anyway I just think it's neat! If you're the type to reread your own stuff frequently, saving an epub version to use in a reader is a really convenient way to do so. It's also an interesting way to share your fics. And of course to download other people's work as well! (Just be sure you download from the "Entire Work" page to get the whole thing!)
