Instead of doing a solid background and print links, I decided to reverse it and do the print as the background and let the accent colour pop as the links.
And of course, my favourite colours.

I made this quilt in about two weeks for my mom for Christmas and, because I was in such a rush, didn't take any good pictures of it.

It was the month of May. Trees in Harvard Yard Were turning a young green. There was whispering everywhere.

I know that we all talk about cowboy Twilight but he and Time both just give Irish vibes to me. And in language barrier fics people tend to have Wind as Spanish, but what if he was Greek? Wind says something like how he wishes he could've been to Malon and Time's wedding so he could throw rice at them, and everyone else on the chain just gives him a confused look? And he's like "throwing rice will give you more children" and they get even more confused. (In Greece, we throw rice at people on weddings to give them good fertility or something.)
#linkeduniverse#lu wind#lu time#lu twilight#my bias as a Greek-Northern Irish person is not showing#I like texas/cowboy twi but he just seems so Irish#If he's not Irish then Time at least has to be Irish. He has the Irish nose that my Irish relatives all have#Wind calling the rest of the chain maláka and they all think it's a cute nickname. No. He's swearing at you.#On the topic of languages#Legend swears in other languages so the rest of the chain doesn't realize what he's saying

#marvel#steve x bucky#steve rogers#i thought this was just a sex joke about Irish people#And then u red the rest of the chain it was in and realized it was about US politics#And by the time I decided if it was ok to make the meme it was already made#So-#ya-#To be fair-#I’m running on two hours of sleep from a day ago and coffe doesn’t work on me

Pastel hearts and irish chain. It’s almost long enough for a twin, but still comes up a little short.

I think sometimes about that time the subject came up of what my grandparents would leave my parents when they died (no grandparents were in the room).
And while there was some speculation over my father's parents, my mother's mother had lived on a widow's pension for most of her life. So none of her seven children were expecting a fat inheritance.
And my dad was like, "Ah, yes! The Gaertner family fortune, split seven ways, should be enough to take us allllll to Eat'n Park!"
This got some laughter and heckling from the rest of the family, my mother included (Dad knows his audience). He went on to say, "And not just one course either! We can get whatever we want!"
"So we can get dessert?" my mom asked.
"Oh yeah! We can get dessert, we can get appetizers, a box of cookies to go....."
And then years later, when my grandmother died at age 94, her will allocated most of her savings for a funeral and a small wake. The rest was to be split equally among her kids.
It takes a while for these kinds of financial things to process, so my mother received her inheritance a few months later.
Each sibling received $200.
Which, as it happens, was exactly enough to take my immediate family and a couple of cousins out to a really nice dinner at Eat'n Park.
#original#death cw#grandparent death#I don't know if it's wholesome content but I don't think it's cynical content. it's sweet to me anyway.#absolutely no one begrudged this woman for raising seven kids alone on a widows pension and then not having savings#I'm pretty sure my memory on this is fairly accurate. I know that my dad's first line is verbatim. I even remember his intonation#one of those sound bites that just stuck in my head.#maybe because I was always fascinated with my dad's ability to tell jokes just up to the line of what's acceptable without crossing it#my little autistic brain was busy filing away data so I could be funnier.#not a lot of people could get my mom to laugh about a joke involving her mother's death. I sure as hell wouldn't have tried#my grandmother was a very very nice lady#tiny little Irish woman whose mother moved to America just a few years before she was born#I am 5'4 but she thought I was so fucking tall XD#Eat n' Park is a popular diner chain in PA; like Denny's but good. I went here at 5am after every cast party in high school#and I did order whatever I wanted at that meal.#btw unless they've changed it the best thing on the menu is the Oreo hot fudge sundae

Halloween is my favourite holiday but it’s so weird trying to explain to people that I actually celebrate it less as spooky day and more as “I surround myself in memories of the dead and do things related to that and it’s actually a very happy and peaceful thing to do” because it sounds spiritual and irl people just. Cannot think of me as spiritual in any sense because of how separated I am from religion. I don’t think of myself as particularly spiritual either! Halloween is just the exception. Like my mom and Easter.
#Didn’t get to bake my Halloween cake this year… can’t really cook in the dorms…#But I did finish a project about brú na bóinne (among other subjects/themes) and the continuing of the past in modernity#And got a shit ton of candy :)#Also the freshman gallery show is coming up and I’m so excited to have my skull key chain wire sculpture study hanging from the ceiling#It’s gonna look so cool#I’m also gonna read my book on Irish prehistoric burials in a bit 💖💖
