@nolivingunderstarlight and I are watching Candela and all I can think, 45 minutes into the episode, is that Liam must have drawn on Caleb Widogast's Keen Mind to draw on the knowledge of Fjord Travis' Idiot's Guide to Sailing for this nightmare and I love it.

Seriously what year is it

Apparently it’s like, 2011-2015 again because @feryx tagged me in a thing and I’m gonna do it.

Rules: name your top ten favorite female characters from different fandoms, then tag ten people

In no particular order, and I’m overlooking a bunch. Also, I’ve decided not to put any character that I have cosplayed or am actively planning cosplays for because that feels like cheating:

1) Kira Nerys (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)

2) Lily Evans Potter (HP - duh) 3) Aubrey Little (TAZ Amnesty)

4) Toriel (Undertale)

5) Scorpia (She-Ra) - I would’ve said Catra if you didn’t, Jonch. But Scorpia’s perfect SoOoOo..

6) Pearl (Steven Universe)

7) Kaylee (Firefly)

8) Tara (BTVS)

9) Katara (ATLA) 

10) Every anime woman with Butch Energy Main takeaways: I like butchy women, redheads, and Big Mom Energy. Checks out.

Just finished E77 of CR Campaign 3.

@nolivingunderstarlight and I didn't realize what we were settling in to watch until we were too far in to turn back and stop for the night.

How. How am I supposed to go to sleep after that?!

Genuinely not sure I've ever seen Matt that stressed before, and if I have, it was C2E26. (Granted I haven't finished C2 but.)

Also, I just. I am so glad this was not the last episode to air before they were off for two weeks.

Okay okay okay.

Once you get this you have to share six random facts about yourself and pass this on to 10 of your favorite followers!

So I’ve totally had this in my inbox for days. Whoops~! So both warningstandbygo and nolivingunderstarlight sent me this and since I know I’ll never ever create 12 facts, I’m going to just post one.

I’m an introvert and sometimes outgoing and sometimes not, depending on what’s happening in my life at that moment.

I like to play video games despite my slow process to get through it. However I’ll get there somewhere.

My love of sewing has picked up and I really really love it despite having very little time for it up.

I am a very cuddly person by nature, I like having a closeness to people. However I respect boundaries to all and know that some people don’t like it so I do that. (I’m clearly running out of facts)

I am probably the nicest person you’ll ever meet until you get on my bad side. But most people tell me I’m just the nicest person ever and I don’t mind that despite not totally agreeing with the statement.

While I know I’ll never do anything more…. I love writing. I think I’m really talented at it and could probably make money if I wrote the right things. However that’s more time than I have. So writing for pleasure is the way it goes at the moment.

Kieron Gillen’s newsletter 014 (via cacchieressa)

Look at the details as Vader looms out the dark. The half-lowering of the gun as each consider just not doing this.. and then raising as they decide they have no choice.

Any of them didn’t slow down Vader for a half second, the Death Star survives. Any of them.

Which leaves me aware that’s all we can do when facing fascism in the dark. We have no idea if what we do make a difference. But it may. You have to believe it may.

(via nolivingunderstarlight)

I started Sunday Morning with the 11am showing of Rogue One at South London cultural institution that is the Peckham Plex. It was the last showing. It was one of the last showings in London. It’s the first time I’ve seen a film twice in the cinema since Fury Road. I like it a lot. My one-line tweet review ROGUE 10/10 captures my basic feelings, but second time through, things are always going to change. You can’t cross that river twice. You change. The world changes. In the last month, more than most. But I found it as effecting as first time, on average. Some bits more, some bits less, over-all similarly wet eyed. But it’s lingered in a different way. First time, I came out in a giggly fanboy rush. Second time, I’m pretty much crushed. Being a working writer, I’m unpacking and trying to reversely analyse choices, and doing my own rewrites to make what I think the effect it’s looking for more efficiently. It’s just something I do, and have done for the vast majority of my life. It’s certainly true towards the end the tangle of game-logic makes it top heavy, and (as always happens when you explain so much) leads to even more questions . You can question the integration of all those fighter pilots into the final act, leaning into the “not a star wars film unless there’s a dogfight at the end” (I felt them weakest bits of Force Awakens, but landed better here for reasons I’ll go into…) But underneath all that, I can’t question it too much, as I see its point and the reasons for doing so. That’s why we talk about choices, as it’s really about what you choose to prioritise. It’s all done to make the movie turn into a relay race, a chain of buckets. If any one individual doesn’t do their small thing, it fails, and the future for a galaxy far, far away is the Empire’s jackboot, forever. This rebellion isn’t about one kid getting a lucky shot . This rebellion is about all those individual choices and moments of heroism enabling the kid to get to a place to take that shot. It is many Bothans, writ large. None of the people who died knew that what they did made a difference. Some knew if they hadn’t done it, it’d have failed… but none knew for sure. They went to their graves ignorant. It could have all been for nothing. To that end, the ballooning of viewpoint characters becomes the point, those pilots as real as anyone else, the actors commitment to those fragments of time meaningful. And as we pull away from our cast, we come to the final scenes, with those nameless Rebellion troops being cut down by Vader, one by one. Look at the details as Vader looms out the dark. The half-lowering of the gun as each consider just not doing this.. and then raising as they decide they have no choice. Any of them didn’t slow down Vader for a half second, the Death Star survives. Any of them. Which leaves me aware that’s all we can do when facing fascism in the dark. We have no idea if what we do make a difference. But it may. You have to believe it may. Imagine Sisyphus watches the boulder tumble back, time and time over. Imagine the centuries, millennia of frustration. Imagine taking a breath, stepping up to its familiar form, and rolling that boulder again. You wonder why he does so. He knows that, against all his history, one day maybe the boulder won’t tumble back. Hope is all we have, but hope - whether new or old – can be cruel.

So I’m finally reading the Locked Tomb books, and I’m partway in, and I messaged @nolivingunderstarlight to tell them that I love Magnus and if he betrays me that I’m never speaking to them again.

Good thing for them that he’s the murder victim instead, or that would have been a bit of a sore spot in our relationship I think.

(I can’t say I am *surprised* but I am quite sad.)
