#if you care (you probably don't) (I just know a weird amount of Les Mis off the top of my head)

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

my poor sister just got a huge rant on Les Mis from me because I needed her to take pictures of Grantaire's "vanity" speech from my copy, and like, I knew the exact reference for it except for the page number so I was able to talk her through finding it, but then she got an earful on my thoughts about it and I think she may be sick of me and I'm not even at home lol

check in tag ✅ @sapphicshawol tagged me!! thank you jenjamin <3

1. why did you choose your url?

it's a notation from the sheet music of erik satie's les fils de étoiles that means "without too much trembling." it's not my original url but for the LIFE of me i cannot remember what my original url even was

2. any side blogs?

i have a couple of stored urls for art blogs that have never been used and i also have a sideblog where i store things like tutorials and other informative reference posts, but nobody needs to know the url of that because it's just another random archive

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

10 long, long years, tragically

4. do you have a queue tag?

i did a very long time ago but for the last maybe 4 years i reblog everything directly into my queue and manage stuff from there. my queue posts 7 times a day and i organize everything in colour gradients because i have weird habits. i do try to queue my writing posts as well so more people see them (i'm in gmt after all) and there's a new thing to read every day, but sometimes i just post them whenever

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

there was a couple of artists + webcomics that i wanted to follow and i creeped around checking back to their actual blogs every day before i caved and just made one myself

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

it's a colour study i did of antinous! i actually changed it last year i think because for a long time it was actually a picture of my face

7. why did you choose your header?

it's a patrick nagel illustration! he's one of my favourite illustrators; i did a whole load of deco/20s and 80s research for a show that never materialized several years ago and the aesthetics have never left my head. i should probably change it to something that matches my blog theme a little better but i'm lazy

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

weirdly, my kingdom episode 5 review. not sure how or why that one got over double the amount of notes as all my other ones, but ok i guess?

9. how many mutuals do you have?

maybe like 15? not all of them are active anymore though

10. how many followers do you have?

283

11. how many people do you follow?

245

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

remember when we used to call those nightblogging? also yes

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

too much. more than you think because my queue is deceptive. but at least twice a day, once when i wake up to see what nonsense catiny was up to while i was asleep and then once at the end of the day to catch up on the rest of my dash. plus now with the question answering and writing i'm here a lot (or i sometimes write responses in google docs first, but it's still for a tumblr post)

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

not that i can remember? i'm very chill and i don't care enough to actually argue with people most of the time, tbh

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts?

annoying as all hell, i don't get my news from tumblr; i'm aware of what's happening in the world from other platforms and people in my life

16. do you like tag games?

i do! they're fun but i never start them because i have weird aesthetic blogger hangups, but i'm getting over it

17. do you like ask games?

i do like these also! but again, i'm very weird and i almost never reblog text because of reasons i could not tell you because they don't even make sense to me

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

the only one that's still active is probably beck! (@greyhyms) i've been following them since ye olde les mis days and i don't know why they started following me back a couple of years ago but i always smile when i see them in my notes and i love how their blog has shifted over time

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

nope

20. tags?

i'm not gonna tag anyone but if anyone wants to do this, this is me telling you that you should <3
