Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi), San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, California, 1990.

Vanishing wonders: Natural arches fall. Sea stacks crumble into the surf. Lava swallows coastlines. Breathtaking landmarks that were around one day, may not be the next (like the famous Jeffrey pine atop Yosemite’s Sentinel Dome, above).

Being a jeffbritta girlie is Exactly like being a fan of a quurbait ship. “Oh I know it’s stated in the text that’s he’s jealous of a different thing and he looks at a different woman at the end but it’s clearly about how he’s jealous of her and I’m gonna ignore the other ship cuz it’s forced anyway” like the delusion. And still I stand for what I said he’s in love with her I don’t accept a different truth

Note: Before anyone mentions it, I know Dwayne Johnson is attached to the project. I just think he’s better suited to play Hakim the Book of Love than Cody, mainly because I can’t see him playing “boring, insecure suburban dad”.

I'm feeling really angsty tonight (post-vacation comedown maybe?) and can't stop thinking about my 'they go back to the Arctic' fitzier fic.

Cause like...actual Francis Rawdon Moira Croizer was Not Particularly Good at being on land. He fled to the Arctic again partly because of that and, one assumes, partly because of his heartbreak via Sophia Cracroft.

And it's astonishing how many real life Arctic disaster survivors WENT BACK. They couldn't live in regular society anymore, and there was something that just...drew them back, inexorably.

It's the PERFECT setup for a Francis POV angsty pining unrequited doomed-in-love fic where he attempts to flee from James, his heartbreak, and his own inadequacies/failings by taking another commission to find the Passage, and he tries like hell to avoid taking James with him but James is strangely persistent and public/official sentiment seals the deal. James will be his second, and as it turns out the love isn't quite as unrequited as Francis thinks...

Anyway I've been collecting quotes that fit The Vibe and here's what I've got so far:

“I believe that every man who has once learned the secrets of the wild polar wilderness and its savage joys will always long to return to it, finding there a spell, an inspiration, that makes all other kinds of life seem insipid.” ~Frederick Cook, Atchinson Globe, 18 Sept. 1897 (tumblr post link)

God, God, what do I do after so much survival? - Traci Brimhall, Vive Vive (tumblr post link)

“I went into the desert to forget about you. But the sand was the color of your hair. The desert sky was the color of your eyes. There was nowhere I could go that wouldn’t be you.” Into the Sands, as quoted in Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides

He jumps at an opportunity to perform on stage in the UK, seeing it as a way to break free from the typecasting and show what he can really do. But he wasn’t prepared to star alongside someone he hates. // Henry is a recent theatre graduate who accepts an amazing role in a queer reimagining of Much Ado About Nothing. And then it turns out his co-star is none other than the man he’s been hopelessly pining after for years—even though Henry made a terrible first impression when they met. // It’s… well, it’s practically Shakespearean.
