i'm watching the mr & mrs smith series (2024) on prime and it absolutely does not deserve all of the hate that it's getting. it might be a bit too rushed, i'll give you that because it's true, but Donald and Maya are phenomenal in it, the sceneries are just incredible and over all it's just so, so good.
ok i swear i'm not going to talk about my breakup forever but the thing that just keeps bothering me:
i know that not getting what you need in a relationship is a COMPLETELY valid reason to end it but also. i feel like having a very vulnerable moment where i opened up about my struggles with intimacy and being relieved that i didn't have to keep doing things i wasn't comfortable with, then being dumped a YEAR later because of my lack of intimacy. is something i should be allowed to be very hurt by???
I just need to know one thing: is the guy in the second picture the same man George is riding in the fireplace scene in the third? Please. It's for... research purposes.

- in my attempt to make more sources on ex-yu culture accessible, i've begun to scan and share some of the good material i've read! due to some expressed interest, here is a segment on vampires and watermills (which are connected to vampires)!
- for folks who can read serbo-croatian and cyrillic, you can read the direct scans from the book here and for those of you who can't, i've translated the pages into english myself and you can read them here. hope some of you enjoy reading about vampires before they were sexy! if you are interested in reading any of the other segments, you can find a table of contents here and let me know which you'd like to see first.
(note: while im fluent in english and put a lot of effort into these translations, i'm by no means a professional translator. my primary focus was that the facts were translated correctly and relayed what people believed)
You are so right about blood. That art goes so hard
tbh the main reason i will always deliberately go against canon on whether or not monsters have blood (and by extension why nearly all my skeleton guys have anatomically inaccurate runny bone marrow) is bc any other alternatives will just never have the same impact. just dust or weird runny magic ain't gross enough we gotta have that classic deep red Ooze
Sorry babe I can’t sleep right now. I can feel the wrinkles in my duvet and hear my heartbeat in my ear and my pillow is too solid and I can hear my own breathing and it’s too silent and my pyjama top is itching my skin and I’m not laying perfectly straight and one side of my head hurts and my face isn’t covered by the duvet and
Words cannot fully describe just how happy I am that Kohga is alive. My mans fell into a place full of absolute hellish nightmares and went “aw hell yeah time to build things”
He’s so caught up on needing Link’s magic but like- my guy could have a science job with Purah and Robbie with how well he’s handling living in the depths- I think we should be allowed to bring him up to the surface and insist he be given benefits
"And tonight… I'm supposed to kill… you.
I was supposed to burn off your face, and take your identity."
Supposed to sounds a bit vague (or like somebody else was pulling your strings) - why not say "I've planned to" or "I wanted to"?
Edward, captain of this vessel, adored by all, man with all the power, it was your idea and you are allowed to change your mind. Take responsibility for your ideas/actions!
Just tell Izzy you need him and maybe stop ignoring him at every turn and he'll stay anyway. Very little goes a long, long way with this one!
(rewatching S1E6 and I find Ed's choice of phrase fascinating - and very in character)
I'm actually so disappointed in everyone saying ofmd ships are better BECAUSE THEYRE CANON!!! Since when did we, as gay people, decide THAT made a ship better????? How old are you???????
Scenario: somebody you know casually, but not, like, that well has cheaply obtained some rare article that happens to be related to a special interest of yours. However, they're not sure if it's genuine or a knockoff, and – being aware of your special interest – they reach out to you to confirm its authenticity. The results of examining photos being inconclusive, they insist on showing it to you in person; upon arrival, they point the way to a musty, ill-lit basement where item in question is ostensibly kept.
