Tips for smelling like Vanilla and/or Strawberries all day? I have some lotion and body mist from Bath and Body works but I feel like it fades rly fast :(

I LOVE THIS QUESTION!!! EEEHHH!! Okay so! I’m a VANILLA GIRL and I used to be strawberry too!!

What you want to do is make sure your body wash and other products all match. FOR EXAMPLE I use dove vanilla and shea bar and liquid soap, then I exfoliate with a vanilla sugar scrub (homemade) and then eos vanilla shave cream and then fresh out of the shower I put on eos vanilla cashmere lotion and a dove vanilla and shea deodorant.

Now you don’t have to go as hard as me BUT!!! I can definitely help!!

DO YOUR HAIR FIRST!! You don’t want those oils and stuff going down your back after you just cleaned it and smell nice!

First things first to smell like vanilla and strawberries all day it starts in the shower! Get a bar soap that smells like vanilla, strawberry, or unscented. The bar soap is what actually cleans you! (Literally any dove bar soap will do but this smells HEAVENLY)

Next a vanilla strawberry shower gel! This would be your Walmart bodycology stuff! (This line is FANTASTIC for this!) the gel soap will clean you but is mostly to help deposit that scent!

Now you exfoliate! Sugar scrub, exfoliation glove, or African net sponge. (I use a net sponge bc they make it easier to SCRUB and get my back!) you don’t have to use a sugar scrub by any means if you don’t need one or don’t want one.

You can also make one by mixing 1 & 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup coconut oil (or any oil of your choice), and a body gel (I think I used a 1/2 cup for that too), I put vanilla extract (also homemade) and a vanilla essential oil (one full dropper or about 10-15 drops). I keep mine in the fridge and it works wonders for my skin.

Now would be the time to shave if you do!! It’s not necessary but I use eos 24 hour moisturizer shave cream in the vanilla bliss scent. Remember to always shave upwards and clean your razor after every few strokes.

At this point get out and don’t dry all the way off!! Apply a nice lotion (I use eos 24 hour vanilla cashmere but for you I’d recommend the body cology one from earlier or bath and body works strawberry pound cake!) then after this BABY OIL (or yk body oil that is strawberry or vanilla scented, the shea butter ones, any of those really) but OIL!! It keeps the lotions moisturize in and locks it away! Moisturized skin holds smell better!!

Now! Find a nice vanilla and strawberry perfume! PREFERABLY an eau de parfum but an eau de toilette is fine too!

This one is sooo goooddd my friend in highschool wore it everyday and OUGH so good and it lasted ACTUAL DAYS!

Go to the base notes and find vanilla, this is the dry down smell it’ll stay this way ALL DAY, middle notes are gonna stay for a long time too. This is where you’ll find vanilla or strawberry. Pick your favorite smell (fresh cream by philosophy would go SO WELL with the bodycology smells from earlier)

Once you have your perfume you want to put a THIN LAYER of Vaseline on your pulse points (inner elbow, wrists, behind the knee, ankles, and behind your ears and on the sides of your neck. Basically where you can see veins tbh) then spray your perfume on those points.

The body mist (bodycology spray, or your bbw scents) goes literally everywhere else! Chest, hair (spray your brush before brushing your hair), legs, shoulders etc etc. don’t be afraid of this one bc it’s made to dry down subtle (you grow nose blind to it but everyone else knows it’s there and it makes your scent more complex)

That’s kind of it! Other than increasing water intake (makes your sweat smell better, makes your body more hydrated, there’s so many benefits.) and like oral hygiene and that stuff that’s really it! I hope this helped!!

Dungeon meshi live-blogging ep 12 to 14

Ep12

Man. They need to go back???? To get someone to revive her????

Lets go Marcille is a dark prohibited magic bitch

The way she got so serious, ist so unlike her

I can feel the tone is finding its way back to lighthearted but like. They talking about their friends bones so it still feels uneasy

Lmao Chilchuck such a mood.

NOT THE USUAL cheery presenting good THING BEING USED FOR FALIN AND THE WARG’S SKELETON 💀💀💀

Woahhhhhh dark magic being used changing the atmosphere woahhhhh so cool

…Fullmetal vibes

Holy shit poor Falin. The way she’s talking all slow and her eyes look so dozed off…

She came back wrong I can Tell.

I’m eating lunch rn I fucking. I thought the stomach hungry noises from Falin were MINE’s.

THE BATH SCENE. I heard of this from The Posts…. Okay so far it is in fact very yuri damn

Oh fuck the dark magic

Elf lore 👀 👀 Elf lore 👀👀 also hints of Marcille being fucked up <3333

“Até magica de recuperação pode ser usada como tortura!” Marcille eu não acho que isso vai ajudar a convencer o Chilchuck que você não é do mal

AH FUCK SENSHI WAIT NOOOOO—-

The Falin has become Anime Main Character

Glad to see everyone was thinking the same thing as me. The Falin has become a Cannibal 🙏

FALIN. FALIN ASKED THEM IF THEY ATE FISHMEN ALL EXCITED. FALIN NO.

Ah. Chilchuck really said we are NOT keeping this a secret. Laios you WILL tell everyone about your freak monster sword

… did it run away from her because she was revived with parts of the dragon?

They are Gon coded fr fr (cheery whimsical anime protagonist that you slowly start to realize that their fucked traits aren’t just anime logic, they rly ARE fucked up)

A CHILD??? Ghost child only Falin can see pog

LETS FUCKING GOOOO ITS THE ELF THE WHITE HAIR ELF

(Post finishing ep 12… Laios how do you have a bit of knowledge of a dog’s bone structure. Remembers “why is everyone so soft hearted towards mammal animals?” … LAIOS HOW DO YOU HAVE A BIT OF KNOWLEDGE OF A DOG’S BONE STRUTCTURE

Ep13

Sell some meat to the first person you see

Oh fuck Falin Came Back Wrong momences

Girl looks like a ghost.

OH FUCK

OH JESUS

LETS GOOOOO AS I THOUGHT THE PAST SHIT IN THE PAINTING IS RELEVANT. Also a character’s motivation being so rooted in the far far past feels cool love it when they do that

Me when. Me when 👀

The fact that episodes 1 to 10 were very slice of life is so funny now. Marcille is currently going insane.

“Your Majesty will return soon ^-^” I’m sorry Crazy Mage but unless you cooking some fucked shit up then your king is Dead fr fr

THE GHOSTS MVP’D LETS GOOOOO

Wait where is Laios— oh he’s here. He didn’t have any dialogue rn so I thought he wasn’t there djdjjdjdjf

Girl what

Senshi mvp’d lets gooooo

LMAO you can always count on Marcille to be grossed out by monster food

lmao the fucking Orc being like YOU FUCKING MET HIM

That fucker lmao

That may be selfish but that’s pretty fair of Chilchuck. That was very scary and they just met the CREATOR of the dungeon, ofc he wants to get the ppl in the party with him to safety but he almost died fr fr

Chilchuck 🤝 Namari in my mind

“Falin is probably already dead, we need to dip man it ain’t worth it there ain’t much hope for that”

…I just remembered. In the intro we were told the king said that the “crazy mage” took over the kingdom and asked for help, then died. Yet said “crazy mage” is eagerly waiting and looking for the king. 👀

“There were some people who abandoned the party, but thinking about it now, maybe they were the same ones. Maybe I should have been less stubborn and followed their example” I get you’re kinda breaking down but NOOOOO Chil don’t think like that :(

Him recounting the stories and smiling softly at the memory yet the room is empty ough

He doesn’t want to see them die :(

Wait fuck let him ponder some more what the hell is that dragging body thing

Ngl while the tone whisplash from ep 1 - 10 is Getting Me at the same time it’s kind of a smart choice to let those be so light hearted because it gets us to care and bond more with the characters, therefore when Shit Hits The Fan we feel more for them because we remember the fun times and we’re like “they don’t belong here (dark tone)”

How is Marcille gonna take this… she was kept unconscious in this scene for a reason right. Is she gonna react poorly

(Again talking after watching the episode… letting the boneless dragon hams go down the drain of blood with that familiar title card of “here’s the food of this episode tee hee” is rly just the show letting us know like. Yeah you remember those lighthearted fun times? Yeah no it’s jover)

Ep 14

Ngl I would NOT blame him for being into Namari because same she’s so hot. I mean what who said that

… are they gonna get wiped again because that’d be funny as shit. Like I know this guy will be relevant but still

Ahhhh I see

It’s kinda funny to see this group because like. In any other anime this would be our main characters but we’re stuck with The Freaks and I wouldn’t have it any other way

I hope this mc vibes guy is Unhinged in his own way also because the face he made when he was about to kill was not normal

Okay Ngl ever since I first saw him I thought he had freak vibes glad to see I was right

Fucking SAVAGE. Okay maybe they wouldn’t be the protagonist group normally protags aren’t that morally… *remembers the Other anime I just watched*…. Well.

Lmao the protag energy of having a moral reason for exploring the dungeon meanwhile OUR protags are just like. Me like money and adventure and food ^-^. I’m glad for our protags

Blue eye guy: if we steal from them we’ll be just as bad as them! Anyway let’s dump their corpses on the river so nobody can find and resurrect them ^-^

Aside from the fact taht they just brutally murdered some ppl they are way too normal anime group we need to get back to our people soon

This mf is a stalker fr fr there’s no way he just casually knew all of that

HE REALLY WAS STALKER HUH.

… they are gonna get wiped again arent they

Why all the protag mfs have those internal monologues in fights it’s a curse fr fr

[yuukei-yikes]

takane and shintaros post str codependency is making me insane because theyre both way too emotionally attached to each other and want to beat each other up so bad at the same time. they were all the other had for the longest time and have such a raw unspoken understanding of each other and literally goes insane they remove my brain function and the way you characterize them is so real

NO LITERALLY THEYVE BEEN IN MY FUCKING BRAIN FOR WEEKS AND WEEKS . their feelings for each other are the same and also completely different bc shintaro was takane's entire life and purpose while shintaro didnt KNOW it was even takane so he has to reconcile with that fact and OUGH the i can fix him/i guess i can let her fix me dynamic. they cannot live without each other and its so so so unhealthy and messed up .

ok but relationship therapy for shintaro and takane. and also ayano and haruka are here (haruka organized it) the therapists like i seriously dont fucking understand whos dating who and haruka's like THATS THE FUCKING PROBLEM sry im so insane abt shintaro bringing insanity to harutaka and takane bringing (even more than they already have) insanity to shinaya.

haruka's literally the ONLy one on the fucking loop of whats happening bc ayanos like. she's got so many issues of her own and her relationship with shintaros a mess as well so its not like shes got the emotional tools to do something other than be sad abt it. i think if ayanos the one to say anything she still shields behind haruka like HARUKA ALSO THINKS ITS MESSED UP RIGHT HARUKA? RIGHT RIGHT? PLEAAASE HELP MY CASE and harukas like COME ON. but yeah haruka calling takane out but hes so soft abt it it takes takane like a fucking minute to realise wait are we having a....fight and harukas like i GUESS and takanes like ooooh. ohhhhhhhh thats not good.

haruka tries to be understanding bc IT IS understandable that theyre like this but hes like is it too much to fucking ask that takane stops canceling on me all the damn time. and shintaro is so comfortable with just trusting on takane for everything bc hes like she's so pathetic abt wanting to know whats going on with me and she is THE ONE who saw me at my worst so who else would i turn to lol like takanes more comfortable for him. otherwise whats he supposed to do. open up to a whole new person. hes terrified of the outcome of having someone else(ayano) know him that way.

anyways haruka works on it with takane bc he's like drilling into its head the whole thing and takanes more and more aware of it as it goes on and then sort of has to make the choice to have this sort of messed up break up without dating with shintaro. also maybe around the same time shintaro breaks up with ayano for reals in case uve read my shinaya post. shintaro just got dumped x2 and turns to haruka in his emotional breakdown and since haruka responds not mean spirited or angry at him at all, but kinda tells him u brought it upon yourself like ive been telling u abt this for months so shintaro gets angry at him bc he resorts to being irrational BC HE JUST GOT DUMPEDX2 COME ON so to harukas hes like OHHH SO ITS UR FAULT UVE ALWAYS BEEN JEALOUS OF ME AND TAKANE LIKE EVEN IN HS and harukas like wow. im gonna walk away now. but shintaro to takane is like but ayano just left me?? and this is an issue for haruka too??? maybe we should just be together???RIGHT??? and takanes like WOOOOOOOOOOOW HARUKA WAS RIGHT THIS IS RLY FUCKING WEIRD so now things are weird between haruka and shintaro x2 because he just essentially asked takane to breakup with him. shintaro sort of tries blaming his breakup with ayano solely on what happened with takane when in reality theres just so many other things and its so messy

its a yuukei quartet messy fallout baby. it is so fucking funny.

for ayanos part i think she sorta shuts down for a bit while she seeks help in therapy and stuff and shintaros like spiraling so hes more difficult and for takane its SUPER SUPER hard to not run to shintaro seeing him like That so haruka has to keep her grounded but its not like things are super great between them either bc takanes like shaking with anxiety and haruka feels so guilty and has no one to ask advice to so hes not sure if he did the right thing or not. basically ayanos in therapy keeping distance shintaros sort of having a tough falling back to old habits (goes neet for like a month) and harutaka are trying to work on their relationship lol. thru it all the dans also around so theyre especially of help with ayano and shintaro's episodes.

sorry like this is funny to me ofc they all make up like they come around. shintaro and ayano get back together. shintaro and takane talk to each other like normal people and maybe hug and cry a little bit. haruka wants to sleep for like 2 days.

they make up so its FINE thats why to me this is comedy central like is it not super funny come on. but a little post str misery arc for shintaro there

[anosci]

(16-30 albums etc that I’ve listened to this year, copied from twitter) (now with art. [1] [2] [3])

album names and personal thoughts below cut.

16/ Pan Electric & Ishq - About Time (2008) ough, this is prime chillout. feel like ive been pickier about the style recently but this hits the spot.

----

17/ Ovuca - Wasted Sunday (2001) mis-parsed this thinking it was an Oval album. it's not. :| but it still has some cool turn of the century glitchy fun, just grounded with some more traditional synthy beats. i love the sound design overall

---

18/ Team Doyobi - Cryptoburners (2001) feels like cheap plastic and warm electronics. lots of empty space, but as a stylistic choice. sometimes a little too noisy for my taste. sometimes cozy in its fuzzy minimalism.

---

19/ VA - Tigerbeat6 Inc. (2001) an absolute grab bag of ideas and quality. weirdly, i feel kinship with the silliness contained within. some of these are RLY COOL. "Wooper", "Jujik_olop", "Klardiscopic Remedy #1"

---

20/ Electric Company - 62-56 (2001) future buzzes and clicks :) I'm not as much of the fan of the sort of… freeform ambiance. but I do really enjoy those clicky beats.

---

21/ MuToPiA LABEL — ISOMORPHISM (1999) man im fascinated by this double-retro stuff. "let's arrange this 5 year old game!" -some guy 24 years ago. sadly, it's just a little too rough for me. I'm spoiled by modern arrangements. but yet... track 3 sounds so early OCR. beloved.

---

22/ DJ Assault - Belle Isle Tech (2000) listened as a joke, but yet… there's some sweet little jams here. "Jungle Love" is a striking standout. i... used alternative cover art for this just in case. hi tumblr tos lol

---

23/ Cex - Oops, I Did It Again! (2001) some cool stuff and some annoying stuff, to my taste anyway. :| more of the former than the latter, overall, luckily.

---

24/ Lesser - Mensa Dance Squad (2001) kinda…. jungle tossed in a glitchy blender? sometimes more physical than aural, somehow.

after pondering for a while, a few more thoughts on 2001 tigerbeat6 in general: usually, i vibe with music as music. but with this freeform glitch stuff, i vibe as if it were a painting. it has the feature space of music but, as a whole, each song becomes an acrylic canvas.

---

25/ Apocalyptica - Cult (2000) i guess i wanted to check this out because symphonic metal? (old list item) my biggest complaint is the lack of percussion. igorrr has me spoiled. what is metal without breaks? and cores? still, a few good cuts here imo

---

26/ Lackluster - Rikos 7" (2000) just as i began to feel it was kinda "meh", the vibe enveloped me. EXCEPT for the one track with a title.

---

27/ VA - SMAK (2001) date is technically 2002 in compilation form but each EP came out in 01. the first comps REALLY did not vibe with me, but i feel like they got better as the number incremented. Massimo - Nemylik? oh man. let's drift away.

---

28/ Kid606 - GQ On The EQ++ (2000) i listened to this years ago and only liked one track. listening again... wtf this is good. why did i do that. it is *crispy* but i admire that now. i cannot BELIEVE how good this is. 23 years old? what!!

---

29/ YET11 - TIMECAPSULE (2000) retro newage chiptune? an interesting thing. I find that im not too drawn it, though... maybe "After Rain" as a highlight?

---

30/ Geeez 'N' Gosh – My Life With Jesus (2000) this took a while to get going. I can't say im a fan of the glitched ironic gospel stuff. i love atoms clicks and glitches but man i wish i didnt have to actively ignore the blemishes here

[synchlora]

Do the characters have any regrets ?? Or what are some things they miss? (Apocalypse au)

OOOH BOY do they! :DD

gonna center this around the rv crew bc theyre the main center of the au atm and doing Everyone would be a lot (but I may return to this later to add more as I flesh out the characters better 👀👀)

tommy

he has some regrets, mainly centering around things he Didn't Do. he wishes he would've helped his sister before he left his family. wishes he wasn't such an idiot when he got home, wishes she didn't have to sacrifice herself to get him out. he really blames himself for that, thinks he was too loud and thats what got her killed

he has a lot of regret around ranboo as well, he regrets not helping in the situation more. felt like he was useless compared to wilbur and tubbo, and he blames himself for a lot of the pain he went through. maybe if he just knew a little more or was actually helpful then ranboo wouldn't have suffered so much. yeah, he survived, but tommy regrets that he wasn't able to help more in ranboos recovery

he misses watching the moths on the back porch light at his house

tubbo

hoooooly shit don't get me started, this kid has so many fucking regrets, mostly of things he Did Do. he regrets running away. thinks he should've died with his parents, and has always seen himself as a coward for running away with the car and basically condemning them. he fully blames himself for their deaths, even if he would've died in the fire with them otherwise

he regrets not being there for tommy. tommy struggled with adjusting to life post-apocalypse and he wishes he would've been in a better headspace to have given him more time and care. sure, he'd also just been through an incredibly fucking traumatic event himself, but he still feels like he should've alleviated more of tommys struggles

and OHHHH BOY RANBOO :]] some of his biggest regrets circle around ranboo. he didn't even want to take ranboo in at first, for gods sake he held the guy at gunpoint the first time they met. he was gonna kill him then and there, and he still feels horrified looking back at his actions that day. and, christ, the amputation too. he was the one to propose the idea and to perform the fucking surgery. he blames himself for all of that trauma that ranboo carries (considering how fucking traumatic the procedure was w/o generalized anasthetic). those two months where ranboo was on deaths door post-surgery were months tubbo prefers not to remember, they were rough and he genuinely believes he caused all of that pain

he misses the big green and blue patterned blanket that burned with his home

ranboo

ough this kid is Fucked Up man. he may not remember shit from his past but that doesn't mean he can't make just about every action or lack thereof into something to regret.

he regrets getting infected (though that's not rly in his control), wishes he hadn't have even lived because god his life made it so much harder on tommy and tubbo and wilbur. they didn't even know him for gods sake but they still cared. he wishes they didnt

they wish they could remember what was before, desperately wish to have known what their life was like. that's not so much of a regret as something that eats away at him though. every time he shows any disdain or discomfort or just not "good" emotions, he hates it. he regrets any negative emotions, feels like he's just ungrateful as shit. their first big argument with wil is a huge regret, and even though tommy was fully on their side through the argument, they still feel like it was out of line to act like that

I dunno man he just has. fucked up emotional responses and he doesn't know how to let himself feel those w/o feeling awful abt how others perceive him

they miss whatever was before, no matter what it was

wilbur

now, wilbur is very interesting bc from the outside, he hides his regrets very well. but OH DEAR GOD he fucking hates so many of the choices he's made.

he regrets going to med school, he regrets moving away from his parents even though they were pieces of shit. he regrets dropping out. he regrets ghosting his friends even when it was desperate times, regrets letting eret and fundys roommate die when he should've gone to help them. he regrets staying in this fucking town, staying in that godforsaken hospital roaming the halls like some unsettled ghost. he regrets meeting tommy and tubbo, he regrets just about every aspect of what happened with ranboo, he regrets lying.

he just wishes he could do it all over again. be more honest, no matter how hard it is. he wants a do over

he misses not feeling like he's being watched all the time

OFFAL HUNT REMASTERED LIVEBLOG // CHAPTER 16

in which murphy nearly cries AGAIN over this fic AGAIN

Cinder didn't say anything. She returned that searching look, like she was wanting something too, like she believed Glynda held some key for her own soul.

HELP ME PLEASE GOD HELP

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE I BEG OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i GUESS WE HAVE THIS CHAPTER TOO. I GUESS. OH MY GOD. IM GONNA SCREAM.

we’re opening with florence + the machine lyrics and i LOVE me some florence which is the only thing helping me cope rn but HERE WE GO. WE JUST HAD PAIN. NOW IT’S TIME FOR. MORE, PROBABLY.

The room was cast in filtered blues that seemed to drown all other color, an abyss of night that stole the reds of Cinder’s dress, smothering her in wine-violet.

i once made an offal hunt bingo card that i should have been using the entire time (whoops) but add ‘colour theory’ to it somewhere. and also because i see violet i see glyndas colour am i onto smthng here,

ALSO:

She hadn't said a word beyond what was strictly necessary through the entire ride up to her little apartment.

glynda... have u been invited into a lady’s apartment,,,,,,,,, GLYN,,,,,,,,,, HAVE U PULLED,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, G L Y N D

The lights reflected in her eyes in discs, like screens, like cat’s eyes—shockingly yellow in all the somber blue.

OH

FUCK YEAH

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT’S GLOWY EYES HOURS FUCK YEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

i have been WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT for like FOREVER oooooooh my god yes. YES. cinder yr PRETTY EYES. i love her. did i mention that. because i do,

Glynda had heard of Faunus taking blades to themselves, to try and hide their features and escape the ever-present eye of human oppression. To cut away ears and horns and tails, shearing parts of their own bodies in a desperate break for freedom.

i want to say something thats VERY 👈😢👈 because i. hrm. dont worry abt it. im filing it away. like glynda is. but in a sadder context.

‘whats sadder than this?’

dont ask,

That couldn’t happen. Glynda didn’t want that to happen. No matter the risk. No matter how Cinder would lash out.

OUGH,,, glynda if u start 2 care then cinder will start 2 care and thats a one way ticket on the pain train to gaytown. i, for one, am thrilled,

The response on Glynda’s tongue withered as Cinder, with little fanfare, lifted her dress over her head and laid it haphazardly across the dresser. When Cinder turned back around, the faint sliver of light found purchase in the thin chain around her neck and the jade pendant laid against her bare chest.

OH

OH SHIT

/crashing sounds

MA’AM,

im having to take a minute just give me a minute please give me a m in u te

It was impossible to tell whether Cinder noticed her sliding out to the left of her own body.

glynda, but slightly to the left,

HONESTLY ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO??????????????????? MA’AM

this bed sharing is the straw thats gonna break the murphy’s back. this is it. im gonna die.

Mindfully slow in the darkness, Glynda walked to the other side of the bed, folded her glasses onto the nightstand, and slid under the covers next to Cinder. A small space existed between them. Glynda’s heart thumped in her chest as she tried to discern even the slightest motion from Cinder at her back. Proximity made her dizzy with warmth.

im not even able to comment on like specific instances because im as LOST AS GLYNDA IS RN,,,, WHAT,,,, HELLO?????????????? GLYNDA. THEYRE

THE BED

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Glynda jostled her shoulder. “Are you awake? Cinder?”

“You’re not giving me much of a choice,” Cinder said, unmoving.

og offal hunt COULD never DID never WOULD never i am absolutely going fucking ape shitt crazy feral rn. holy shit. holy shit. lads. the bed. the bed. theyre in the bed. you. whats going on.

“I know,” Glynda agreed. “You’re kind of a menace.”

Cinder was silent. In hindsight, that hadn’t come out as encouragingly as Glynda meant.

hsdjgfsgdf if this is what its like when these two are. semi-enemies. can u imagine what it’ll be like when theyre dating

(i can)

“If I showed up on Sienna Khan’s doorstep with an army behind me, she’d demand to know what took me so long to come home.” Cinder’s eyes were burning coals lodged in the sockets of her shadowed, furious face. “Fuck her. Fuck all of them.” She paused only for breath. “It’s been years—decades—and they still think—”

GOD. THE LORE!!!!!!!!!!! i am SO interested in cinders backstory and this version is rly just going wild. going hoggie wild on this shit. what the hell happened. why did it happen????????? whats going on?????? CINDER... TELL US MORE...

She was furious, like a cornered and wounded Grimm; furious, and hungry for violence.

👈😔👈

“If there is, bring me with you.”

“You?”

“Yeah.”

this is some poetic cinema. this is some soft and tender shit. i want to cry. why is this SO good.

Something small and charmed crawled out of the hollow of Cinder’s expression: the flicker of a smile, for just a moment. She said softly, “We weren’t all born with ancient souls, Glynda. Some of us were lucky to be born at all.”

👈👈👈😭😔😞👈👈👈

this is so soft. im absolutely dying. im going to die. take me out.

It must have been the room, or the night, or air, or—something—that made Glynda admit, “I wish—that I felt that way.” At the expectant silence that followed, Glynda swallowed and continued, “Not—not with the White Fang. Just… I wish that it felt like everything had been leading to something. That everything in my life was worth it.”

Cinder was very quiet.

I AM LITERALLY SCREAMING. DIESEL. KC. I WILL PERSONALLY BURN DOWN YOUR HOUSES OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

oh this sucks SO MUCH MORE when you KNOW THINGS(tm) ABOUT THINGS and ooooooooooooooooh my god im literally gonna fuckin die oh my GOD STOP!!!! STOP I HATE IT

It was like swallowing water and holding it in her lungs. She hated how it hurt. But she would rather that than drive Cinder away. She would rather anything than be alone right now.

the good news: this edition of offal hunt is so much more potent abt everything. EVERYTHING feels more vibrant and more real and more interesting and more... everything. and its GREAT i adore it

the bad news: im fucking sobbing

“Ten,” Glynda said. “I enrolled at Beacon when I was twelve.”

okay this is still a very sad moment but also can you fucking imagine rolling up to class at 17 and seeing a literal 12 year old look you in the eye and go ‘you know i can tutor you if you need extra help’. id be fucking livid. who is this square,

Instead, Cinder dared nearer, smoothing a stray lock of hair behind Glynda’s ear. It was an oddly comforting gesture, coming from her. Glynda’s heart stalled in her chest and Cinder, ignoring it, said, “I know it meant a lot to you. That he meant a lot to you.”

me, pointing: this is it ladies and gents and beans. this is it. cinder’s gone and done it now. i can feel it on the wind. here it is. there it goes.

“What is your destiny?” Glynda asked, feeling bolder than before.

The fingers brushing hair behind Glynda’s ear stalled. Cinder’s palm laid warm against Glynda’s high, sharp cheekbone. Something stuttered and then leapt between them, and Glynda’s face went hot when Cinder whispered, “You.”

“Me?”

“We were born in the same year. You couldn’t have known that—that we’re the same age.” Cinder paused and withdrew her hand, tucking it against her own chest. “But my mother felt it. I always knew.”

Glynda didn’t begin to know how to respond.

“We were born in the same year,” Cinder repeated, almost as if to remind herself, like swearing an oath. “We’ve always been each other’s destiny.”

“I always thought it was my destiny to die,” Glynda finally admitted. “Just like my mothers.”

“No,” Cinder said, distantly. “No, it isn’t.”

okay its bad form to grab SUCH a huge section to like bring attention to it but this is. so much. not just from a fucking offal veteran perspective but SO much more too. like this section is just IT its the CORE of the THING!!!!!! and i wish i could go into why hooooooooooooly shit this bit is just. It(tm) but thats a spoiler so i will settle for this

👈👈👈👈👈👈👈👈👈👈😭😭😭😭😭😭😔😔😔😔😞😞😞😢😢😢😢😢😨😨😨😨👈👈👈👈👈👈👈👈👈

cinder’s last line? has me on the FLOOR. THE FLOOR.

When Glynda asked Cinder what her destiny was, Cinder had said you.  

The echo of it was butterflies in Glynda’s stomach.

im losing it. ima bsolutely beside myself
