These are really helping me rn thank you

Hang in there, you’re not alone. It WILL get easier. (Yes, because a stranger on the internet says so!)

[positivelypositive]

I just wanted to say thank you for your posts, they’re really helping me feel stronger and more sure of my future happiness. Also, I love the way you format them with different sizes of text and paragraphs, it’s really easy for my ADHD brain to absorb and that makes a huge difference. Kinda silly, but it makes me feel taken care of 💛

hi @sugar4ndroses thankyou so much for such a sweet message. i am so so glad that the blog has been helpful for you. it's not silly at all what you said about the formatting. even though i did not start it on purpose, i will surely continue the format because you mentioned that it was of help to you! sending you positive vibes ✨

The wave of Megamind content is giving me life no one talks about that movie and I’m loving seeing someone going feral over it like it deserves

I am always ready to go feral over Megamind it’s one of the greatest films ever made

[madjabberbat-art]

I liked this one.

[snowbazpitch]

I have offically made a podfic!! I have been wanting to start these for a long time and I was so glad that @sugar4ndroses gave me permission to make one for her amazing fic Tears On Our Tongues because it is one of my all time favourites. 

If you liked this, please go and check out all her stuff because her writing is so awesome and support the heck out of her stuff!

If you’d like anymore of these, or you’d like a podfic of a certain fic, please let me know! Thank you so much!

[snowsays]

I was tagged by @basiltonn to do the answer 11 questions, then ask 11 more tag!! Thank you so much!!!! (even tho I have already read your questions and idk how the fuck to answer like half of them??? :’’’’D im sorro)

1) a song that changed you?

I.....don’t know?? I’m going to say Believer by Imagine Dragons because it’s awesome and I think it hits pretty close to everything that’s happening recently (actually I think it was written because of what’s happening recently), also El Aguante by Calle 13 because it’s so true??? And I feel especially in sync with that one because Calle 13 is a latino group and I’m latina too so even if I know that it is about humans in general I still feel like it’s especially directed to latinos, also when my friend told me about Take Me to Church’s meaning

But also I’m going to just tell u some songs that have special meanings for me just because of the feels: Luna by Juanes, Ciega, Sordomuda by Shakira, A Dios le Pido by Juanes, Latinoamérica by Calle 13 ft Totó la Momposina (because I can)

2) can you speak in any languages aside from English?

Yup, spanish (which is my first language), english (which I’ve been studying since I was like 3 y/o), and I recently (aka in february) started learning french (so I can present myself, other people, ask easy questions, and I know like 6 verbs + conjugations)

3) do you have a favourite inside joke? Can you explain it?

“Los restrooms!” aka that one time my mom, aunt, uncle, cousin, and I went to Disneyland but only my cousin and I knew english (basically everytime someone needed a restroom we would look around until we saw a sign that said “restrooms” and we would be like “this way! there is a sign that says restrooms!” so my mom, aunt and uncle learnt that restroom was baño (bathroom/restroom) and when they needed one they would say “donde hay un restroom??” (”where is the restroom?”) and eventually my cousin and I started doing it too and we would just say “miren! allá hay restrooms!” (”look! there are restrooms that way!”))

4) your psychic knows when and how you’ll die. Do you want her to tell you?

Heck no I’ve read enough greek myths to know that shit ain’t a good idea

5) would you ever even see a psychic?

maybe.....?? Like, out of curiosity and maybe if I asked an inocent enough question but I know it would probably still be a bad idea and I would be terrified as hell  (it would be interesting tho)

6) what’s your favourite joke?

A roman walks into a bar. He holds up two fingers and says “Five beers please”

7) #1 grammar pet peeve?

tbh my grammar is so fucked up and I don’t even know what is grammar at this point of my life (I mean, I know that I know but like, I can’t remember or pinpoint “this is grammar”) but, in spanish we always say “they and me” “rachel and I”, we always put ourselves last like, when you are talking about something you did with someone we say “Camilo y yo” (“Camilo and I”) or “Las Saras, Morales, Ashley, y yo” (”The Saras, Morales, Ashley, and I”) so when someone says “Yo y Sara” (which in english would be like “Me and Sara” and would be okay but in spanish its not and !!!! why??????) it makes me so uncomfortable like, it’s a rule guys!!! everyone learns that like in first grade!!! why cant you use it?? it exists for a reason?? why

Also I know I dont use commas sometimes or tildes (accents, like, exclamación, título, canción, that little ´ on the vocals) but my messages are still readable so it fucks me up when people write so bad that even I, who can decipher most messages, can’t understand what the fuck did they write

8) what’s something you do that bothers people but you won’t stop doing?

um.....swear maybe? I know it makes my mom go mad but I like it a lot (and I mean I can stop but still I feel like swearing makes me, me) so yeah. Also being messy, my mom hates it with her life (I got it from my dad)

Also Cari says he hates when I roll my eyes (suck it Cari rolling my eyes is a defense mechanism)

Also probably when I get all mad and shout like a mad man?

9) white, milk or dark chocolate?

Milk, then white, never dark (dark is the one that it’s all bitter right? I cant stand it ugh)

10) what’s your favourite memory from first grade?

First grade as in when I was six years old??? I can’t remember shit sorry

11) what’s a bandwagon that you’re ashamed you hopped on?

jum.... that one time that in the spanish harry potter fandom the fanfics where harry’s generation received videos from the marauders and the next gen where all the characters introduced themselves and Harry and everyone was like what the fuck those are my kids?? that’s what my dad was like?? whaaat

Well now my questions!

Is there a certain smell/taste that brings memories from your past/childhood?

Something that you would love to do but terrifies you or someone else doesn’t let you try?

What kind of drunk are you? (Or do you think you would be, if you have never been drunk/have never tried alcohol?)

Tell me 5 songs that are special to you / that you love a lot

OTP? (and from where are them?)

What is your most listened spotify playlist? (or 8tracks, or from your phone) (also what are you listening to when you answer this question?)

How many watches do you own? Which one do you like the most?

Do you wear glasses? (Do you have to but don’t?)

Is there some clothing item that you love but can’t actually wear outside because it would be weird or inapropiate? (I for example love the t-shirt that I use when painting but can’t wear it because it’s baggy as hell and mostly paint splatters)

Something you are passionate about?

Favorite character from favorite show/book/movie? (from each of them??)

And I’m tagging some mutuals! (Even if we dont talk -which is propably the case- because I love this things and I want to learn about y’all) (also some non-mutuals so, sorry if this bothers you) (and also mutuals that only follow my hp sideblog, so if you dont know who this is, it’s Lune from @newtonscabander):

The Insidious Humdrum is dead, the Mage is gone. Now, Penny has to discuss something else with Simon and Baz. Why didn't they tell her they were together?

In Which Baz is Clueless, Agatha Has a Date, and Penelope Sees All by imkerfuffled

Simon and Agatha are getting ready for their first date and Baz isn’t happy (only because he never saw it coming, of course). Meanwhile, Penelope notices something.

How do you manage to write so beautifully. I love this so much! ❤

The observatory

A fanfic about stargazing for the Carry On Countdown

Simon

I’m not sure why I thought that Baz would stop sneaking around after we formed our truce. I guess I figured if we weren’t fighting, if we were even trying to trust each other a little, maybe he wouldn’t keep secrets.  

Clearly, his definition of “truce” is a little different than mine.

I follow him out of the room after dark, far enough behind that he won’t hear me.  He doesn’t go to the catacombs.  Instead he makes for the second-most frequent place I’ve caught him skulking around: the Mage’s office.

Usually I wait until I catch him doing something almost certainly incriminating before I confront him, but tonight I’m annoyed.

“Stop,” I call after him as he reaches for the door to the Mage’s office.

Baz heaves a sigh and turns around.  “Go back to bed, Snow.”

“Get out of here and I will.”

“You know,” he drawls, “considering we have a truce, I’d have thought you would try trusting me a little bit.”

I roll my eyes at him.  “Love to, but clearly I can’t, can I?”

“Snow, how am I supposed to get information on my mother if I can’t even visit her office?”

“It isn’t her office,” I growl, even though it feels like a mean thing to say, “it’s the Mage’s.”

Baz opens his mouth to reply (something scathing I’m sure) but he stops, and his brow furrows.

“What?” I ask, not looking away from him, “what is it?”

“Was that door there a minute ago?”

I only now realize that he’s not frowning at me, but at the wall to my right.  I look, and there’s a door, wooden and cracked.  It looks like it’s been there forever.

Which probably means it’s trying too hard.

I’ve been up to the Mage’s office probably hundreds of times. I would have seen this door before, chances are I would have explored it.

“No,” I reply, “this door’s new.”

Baz has his wand ready, and he seems to be preparing an unlocking spell, but I twist the handle and it swings open without so much as a creak on its hinges.  Behind it are stairs, twisting upwards, and a musty smell in the air.  We look at each other, and then I lead the way.

“Could you possible walk any slower?” he asks after a minute of climbing.

“Shush,” I hiss over my shoulder.  There’s moonlight coming in through the odd window, we haven’t had a night this clear in weeks.

At the top of the stairs is a ceiling, and nothing else.

“A door that leads to nowhere,” Baz mumbles behind me, and I’m not sure if it’s a question or a statement, or just a musing.

“Maybe not nowhere,” I murmur, and I press my hands against the ceiling.  I feel it budge but I can’t make it lift.

“Trapdoor?”

“Seems like it.”

“Let me.”

“I’ve got it.”

“Snow.”

I don’t let him, not entirely, but I do let him help.  We shove the trapdoor open and climb up into a bright, round room.

It takes me a second to figure out why it’s so bright. The walls, the ceilings, everything is made of glass.  The moon is illuminating the whole room, the silver embroidery in the rug we’ve crawled out onto is practically glowing with light.

“An observatory,” Baz breathes.

I stare up through the ceiling.  “How do you figure?”

“Maybe from the massive telescope you’ve somehow managed to miss.”

The telescope, once I notice it, is indeed massive.  It looks old but well-polished, like it’s been taken care of for however long it’s been here.

“How in the world have we had an observatory at Watford and never known about it?” I wonder, approaching the telescope.

“That door isn’t always there,” Baz suggests, “maybe the observatory only appears on clear nights.”

It would make sense, I suppose.  I lay a hand on the cool metal of the telescope, and it seems to hum, like it’s waking up.  “How do you move this thing?”

As if it heard me, the telescope swivels a little on its base, its gears clicking as it turns.

“Magic, I assume.”  Baz is beside me all of a sudden, I didn’t hear him come over.  I catch a glimpse of the moonlight hitting his face.  He’s ridiculously pale but right now it actually looks like he’s supposed to be, not like he has no blood or whatever it is that makes vampires that ashen.

“I wonder if it’ll track an object,” I rub my thumb over the surface, “like a Normal telescope.”

“What do you want to track?”

“The moon.”

Immediately the telescope hums to life again, turning slowly until it has aimed itself directly at the moon.  I didn’t mean to command it, I didn’t even say it with magic, but somehow my intent must have been enough.

“Really Snow, the moon?”  Baz rolls his eyes at me.  “Out of all the objects you could look at in the sky, you choose the one thing close enough for us to see on our own?”

I ignore him and stoop to peer in the lens.  I’ve never gotten to look through a telescope before, and the moon has always fascinated me (it looks so close that I can never comprehend how it can be so far away, and so big).  Baz can mock me all he wants.

At first I don’t think I can see anything.  There’s just dark, and sometimes if I angle my head right, there’s something bright, but nothing defined.

And then my jaw drops open, because the big bright thing that I’m looking at is the moon, up close and personal, and it’s almost unrecognizable.  “Crowley,” I whisper.

“What?”

“It’s amazing.”

“It’s the moon, Snow.”

I could stare at it for hours, drinking in the craters and the shadows, but I back up because I need him to understand.  “You look at it.”

He does.  He’s quiet, and he doesn’t mutter anything like I did but I still see the moment that it hits him because his mouth softens and I feel my stomach drop like I’m on a roller coaster.

I should be trying to figure out why that is, but I’m too busy staring.  Not at the moon, at him.

Look away, don’t be staring at him when he looks up.

He looks up, and I’m still staring at him.

“What, Snow?”

I blink a few times.  “Nothing.  Pretty cool, right?”

“Admittedly cooler than I expected.”

“You pick something to look at.”

Baz tilts his head at me.  “Are we taking turns now?”

“Sure, whatever.”

“How uncharacteristically civil of you.”

I try not to groan aloud.  “Baz, have you ever gotten to look through a telescope this big before?”

“No.”

“So take the opportunity,” I tell him.  “It’s not like we get clear nights like this very often. What do you want to see?”

He thinks for a second, then lays his hand on the metal. “Saturn.”

The telescope swivels almost ninety degrees on its base, and it’s aimed closer to the horizon now.  I put my ear to its side and I can hear the gears creak as they track the planet.

Baz bends to look through the lens again, and his face doesn’t change this time, but it’s already softer than it was when we got up here. I find myself studying the transition from his jawline to his neck.

“What’s it look like?” I ask, hoping I sound lighter than I feel.

“Small.”

“That’s all?”

“It’s far away, Snow.”

His voice is quieter than it usually is when he talks to me, I guess because he’s not really focused on me, but it almost sounds… gentle.

“Can you see the rings?”

“Yep.”

“What are they like?”

“Exactly how they look in pictures.”  He stands up and steps aside for me.

When I look, I’m expecting something big and bright like the moon, but Baz is right.  Saturn is small and soft, and the same tan-orange that it is in photos.  The rings are even harder to see, but they’re definitely there, and then the realization hits me: I’m staring at Saturn. It’s there, its rings are there, and I’m all the way over here, on Earth.

“Huh,” I murmur, “it’s actually there.”

“What did you think, Snow?” Baz chuckles behind me.  “That Saturn was a conspiracy?”

“Of course not,” I scoff, “but I guess I’ve never really had proof that Saturn exists beyond pictures.  Now I do.”

“You and I need to have a chat about object permanence.”

My hand slides across the surface of the telescope and bumps into his.  I stand and whip my hand away, and a “sorry” is on the tip of my tongue, but it stops there.

Because Baz is standing a lot closer than I was expecting, and I can’t even see his face without looking up.

His eyes are as silver as the embroidery in the starlight.

His mouth still looks soft.

I’m staring at his mouth.

“Snow,” he mumbles, and I think he’s going to tell me to back off, but he doesn’t seem to be able to finish his sentence.  Which never happens.

I’m still staring at his mouth.  I should stop.

I don’t want to.

My stomach has dropped again and it’s cold and scary but I think I like it a lot.

“Sorry,” I finally manage, but I haven’t moved away.

Come to think of it, neither has he.

I want to kiss him.

That thought scares me as much as the cold stomach.

“We should go,” Baz whispers, like he hopes it’ll break the spell.  It probably should.

I want to kiss him, then go.

“Probably,” I breathe.  That’s all I can do.  Breathe.

Kiss him.  Then go.

I finally manage to look away from his lips, but then I look at his eyes instead and that’s an even bigger mistake.

Because he’s looking at my lips, too.

So I rise onto my toes and my mouth fits against his.

I half expect him to jump back or slap me or something to that effect because that’s how all our interactions seem to end but he stays until I break the kiss.  I don’t breathe.  I open my eyes tentatively.  His are closed and his brow is slightly drawn, like he’s still figuring out how to respond.

“I…”  I don’t get any further, but my stomach is even colder now and not a good cold, more like ice and I can tell I’m going to start shaking.

His eyes open and they’re gray because they’re only half-open, not enough to catch the starlight, but I’m still captivated by them.  “What?” he whispers.

He smells like his shampoo (cedar, and something citrusy) and it’s like his neck, his chin, his mouth, they’re drawing me in again.

“I shouldn’t have.”

Baz lets out a slow breath.  “Maybe not.”

At this point we should definitely both be backing off, but neither of us do.

I kissed him.  Now I should go.

It wasn’t enough.

“Baz…”

This time he pulls me to him.

Tag Game: 15 Questions 15 Mutuals

@carryonsimoncarryonbaz Thank you for the tag! This made me smile :)

Are you named after someone?

Yup, kinda! My great-great-great grandmother. But Mom slightly changed the name because the original reminded my dad of someone he didn’t like.

When was the last time you cried?

Hhhmmm.... maybe a week or two ago. There was a time when it was like, every day, so that’s great for me! 

Do you have kids?

Nope, not a one. Thinking of adopting/fostering someday, though.

Do you use sarcasm a lot?

Unfortunately I’m too straightforward to be able to effectively use sarcasm. This fact pains me greatly (no, really). I do enjoy listening in on sarcastic conversations, though!

What’s the first thing you notice about people?

Probably their smile? 

Eye color?

Brown...

Scary movie or happy ending?

I’m a sucker for a happy ending. 

Any special talents?

I like to write and sketch. I used to be pretty good at horseback riding, but it’s been years. 

What are your hobbies?

Reading and binge-watching bad TV shows

Do you have any pets?

A cat! I love her. 

How tall are you?

5′ 3″ and 3/4

What sports do you play/have you played?

Does horseback riding count? That’s about it. I’m absolutely abysmal at everything else.

Favorite subject?

Creative Writing (it’s my major!)

Dream job?

Wildlife rehab or supporting myself off my writing so I can live in a little off-the-grid cabin in the woods and hoe my garden surrounded by 12 chickens, 6 cats, 3 crows, and one big black dog.
