#thanks sm for the ask!

[enlitment]

Hiii hope your classes are treating you well! How about 8, 13, 33 for the ask game?

Hi, thank you sm! ✨ I feel like I've made the right choice, I do enjoy all of my classes and all the lecturers are nice! Just wish I had more time and energy for everything, but don't we all 🙃

8. Favorite coping mechanism?

If it's reasonably nice outside and I need to process things -> going for a walk. As long as possible. Ideally to nature. Back home I used to go for forest walks, here mostly to the ocean

If I have less time/the weather's not great/I don't have enough energy -> a hot bath. It helps a lot. The fact that my student housing somehow has one is greatly appreciated

Also writing poems! It doesn't work for everything, but it does help me to get some things out of my system every once in a while

13. Where do you wish to live?

It's hard to tell at the moment! Ireland's certainly beautiful, and people here seem so nice. I also know I want to travel. I'd love to visit a country outside of Europe at some point.

From a more long-term perspective? I don't know, I've always wanted to live abroad when I was younger, but recently, I've came to realise Prague is actually a decent enough place to live...

33. What's your favorite current class?

Already mentioned the Gender, Language, and Power one in an earlier ask, but to make things interesting, I also really like Literature of North America!

It's mostly self-study as we only have a limited amount of time to discuss each book, but the reading list is great so far. We have to read one book per week which is not easy with everything else going on, but at least I'll get to boost my Goodreads stats.

For Eldwin:

9: Broken arm or broken leg? 

10: How did you get here? Why are you the way that you are?

From this ask game. Thank you for asking!!

9: Broken arm or broken leg?

"Arm. Easy. I only need one arm to do my job and defend myself; With a broken leg I'm dependant on something else, or someone. Being dependant is dangerous. Plus although I never run away, the option is nice. Even if it's the worst option... It's nice to know that I could.

"...On that note, if I'm the one doing the breaking, then break the legs. Both of them."

10: How did you get here? Why are you the way that you are?

"Oh. Fuck, that's uh, okay." He coughs, taking a swig from a silver flask. "Fuck, I said I'll answer so I guess we're doing this. I could come up with a million excuses, but the truth is, I just made all the wrong choices. From making a pact to thinking I could fleece someone who ended up duping me, big time." He smiles wryly, "Just one bad decision after another. As to why... Well, who can say? Maybe I was always this way. waiting for the right circumstances to show it. Maybe I just wasn't strong enough." He falls silent, staring at nothing. Then he shakes his head with a shrug, slipping into a light tone. "Maybe it was always destined to be like this, and I'm just wasting time. There's no point dwelling on what cannot be changed."

8, 9, and 11 for the horror ask game

8. a horror movie you liked but will probably never rewatch

hmm... probably the train to busan? it was soooo good, but i just dont see myself rewatching it. i dunno why, probably just cuz it was very stressful and i didnt care too much about the characters personally

9. a horror movie that you turned off before it was fully over

the lair of the white worm- I WILL WATCH IT AGAIN at some point, but when i first watched it i was only just getting into horror movies and i was like 'ooooooooo horror movie with peter capaldi!!!' and then there were the nun sex dreams and i was like 15 and watching it with my father and it was late at night so i was like you know what.lets just watch something else

a horror movie/or horror movies you could rewatch the most times

the evil dead, evil dead ii, army of darkness, re-animator, bride of re-animator and american werewolf in london :pp. very basic answers but ive rewatched all of them multiple times and will continue doing so

[transgayhawkeyepierce]

For the character ask: Igor Straminsky from MASH

Idk if you even have any thoughts about him, let alone the ones from the ask, but everyone'll probably ask about main characters and such, so why not throw in one of my fav MASH side characters? ((I've been rewatching the show and was surprised to find he shows up as early as season 2!))

1: sexuality headcanon: straight, but poly

2: otp: Igor/his wife/his very strong girlfriend, maybe Igor/the cook? lol

3: brotp: Enlisted man posse. The little man has to stick together!

4: notp: I honestly have never seen any Igor ships in the wild? I don't have any particularly strong feelings on this

5: first headcanon that pops into my head: He has reoccurring dreams about poisoning Franks food.

6: favorite line from this character: I love that he starts chanting with the crowd in Adam's Ribs. Also his subtle reactions when he's being tortured by Frank are always funny, like, saaaammmee

7: one way in which I relate to this character: The pain of being in a shitty food service job and having to face all the customer complaints. I'm not the one in charge!

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character: posturing for an increase in rank

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave? cinnamon roll

looking at old photo of lichantony at ajax and amazed at how close they were, hope wc end soon so we can have them back i miss seeing them hugging each other

Hi anon! I’m ashamed to say I only discovered the power of lichantony when they came to Manchester United. I knew that they came to us from Ajax of course, just not how close they actually were in their time there. That being said though, I’m doing my best to make up for lost time and devour any lichantony content the internet has to offer! Sounds like we both had the same idea :)

Take this pic: not sure if this is the one you found or if you’ve already seen it, but I feel like you need it in your life regardless. ‘Tis a transformative experience. The gentle hand-hold is just 🥰

I miss them so much too ughhhhh. The best cure for post-wc depression is lichantony. There’s just something so innately comforting about them. I mean, their loving looks, the way licha’s hands always seem to find themselves on antony, them holding each other tight in training and matches alike…what’s not to love? Lucky for us, they’ll be back before we know it! Hang on just a little longer <3

for distractions: this is my parents’ cat Meg. she is absolutely TERRIFIED of being held anywhere near the tub bc there might be Evil Water, but if you’re using the bathroom while she’s in there and delaying her important cat business (sniffing things, looking out the window, napping) she will without fail sit in the tub and squeak loudly at you until you free her (she does not meow, only squeak). she will NOT let you pick her up though bc that is Scary Being Held Near Tub Water even though she is literally sitting in there with no water. we love her silly self dearly. feel free to stop by in DMs if you ever want more silly Meg facts

OMG HI MEG OMG I love black cats this made me smile 🥹 she sounds like a personality haha!! 😍🥰 We'd be best friends I'm sure.

5. how long can your muse hold a grudge? / for sad headcanon questions

Sad headcanon questions // ALWAYS accepting

You know, funny that you should mention that! Peter is a very petty person, he's held grudges for a long ass time. For example, if we take MC2 into consideration, Peter is like 40 (ish) and he still distrusts Osborn's on principle after what Norman did to Gwen, that's like a 20-year-old grudge.

To a lesser extent he still had a grudge with Flash and the way things were in high school, but he did get over that one around the college days iirc. Point is, Peter is extremely petty and can hold grudges for a long, looong time! Though if he can make peace with it, then he lets it go relatively easily. I mean, he's on kinda good terms with Eddie Brock and the Venom symbiote, so...

Hii again :) 🥺 😈 🛒 ✨🎢 💖 🤗 for the fic writer ask game pleasee? (sorry if that’s too many 😂)

🥺 Is there a certain type of moment or common interaction between your characters that never fails to put you in your feels? Yes, but it's not published yet, so I won't spoil it 🤐 All I can say is it's between Jude and Adeline, and that I've been staring at it for the last couple of months as it's the very first thing I wrote for the second part of the miniseries, and it always makes me emo🥲

😈 Has there been a point in a story where you did something just to be playfully mean to your readers? No, not yet 😂😂

🛒 What are some common things you incorporate in your fics? Themes, feels, scenes, imagery, etc. Flowers for sure. If you think about then you'll notice that most of my fics take place at night - this I noticed a couple of days ago, actually, so this is probably the work of my subconsciousness 😂 I also like to think that most of my fics do carry the nostalgic vibe, but maybe it's just me

✨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. 😉

I was afraid someone might choose this one haha

I'll say that I definitely improved since my first fic and that now my writing is decent 😂

🎢 Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride? I'm gonna go with Where do broken hearts grow? because it's an emotional rollercoaster (for me) and I was very stressed about posting it. At that time I felt that I went too far for a fanfic and if I remember correctly that chapter was 4 different versions which were toned down a lot, but then I thought "meh, what the hell" and posted it at 2 am 😂

💖 What made you start writing? When I joined tumblr choices fandom there were already many fics, but most of them were still set in the original blades universe, and I wanted something different. I'm a sucker for the domestic vibes and angst (together, preferably, lol) so assuming the "write what you want to read" stance I just sat down and wrote my first fic which I am too ashamed to look at now 😁

🤗 What advice would you give to new fanfic writers that are just getting started? Don't worry too much > it's a great advice which I am yet to embrace 😂But seriously, it's just fanfic. Yolo it, people will love it

🌲 What is the kindest thing your OC has ever done for someone? What is the kindest thing someone has ever done for them? On the flip side, what is the worst thing your OC has done to another person?

Ooh good question! I'm still solidifying the details for Charity, but she is kind of "the favorite child" atm so I'll be answering for her <3

For the kindest thing she's ever done: I'll have to skimp out on a lot of details but, for context, in her backstory, she came to her priest about a religious dream she had, believing that God was trying to tell her something, and they came to the interpretation that it was a warning of corruption amongst themselves. This snowballed into their church's own mini "Satanic panic", and I haven't really developed the details of how that manifests yet, but the gist of it is that it involved really shitty treatment by the priest and/or higher ups in the church towards the churchgoers, which of course included some of Charity's friends and loved ones. That put her in a really weird position being the person who started this (though unintentionally), so even though it was a difficult decision for her to feel like she was going against God, and though she knew the potential consequences, she still stood in front of her congregation to tell the priest how she thought her dream was being used as an excuse for their own selfish desires. Charity could've just kept quiet and trusted what everyone else was doing, especially since it did end up having hefty consequences, yet she was willing to risk her reputation for her loved ones' sake :) Her having such a strong moral compass remains super important, and makes her very fun to write!

The kindest thing that was done for her... I haven't developed too many canon interactions between her and the others yet, so I would have to say the (first?) time she meets Celio and he affirms her after learning what happened to her. When people are familiar with his character it'll definitely be a surprise to them that he doesn't just condemn her, but there's a boatload of reasons for what he does, mainly 1. He disagrees with some of that priest's particular opinions driving the authoritarianism more than the authoritarianism itself, making him able to hate that person on a more personal level 2. He would acquire major respect for Charity considering she was visited by God in such a way. God makes no mistakes, so in Celio's mind, it must have been moral and part of the plan to have Charity speak out against her priest in the first place, when in other situations that would be deemed disrespectful. He has paranoia brewing about it (mainly "if God licenses her to do that, I might need to get my act together") but he still tells her very honestly and seriously that she's a good person with strong convictions who shouldn't be holding her head down in shame. It's a major first step in her arc that is both positive and negative for her, because at this point in the story, she's getting her first glimpse into trusting her own instincts again, but she's also turning back to the same cycle again: searching for this comfort in a religious figure that can't be trusted.

Finally, for the worst thing she's ever done, I actually may not have enough written for that! However, I very recently had the realization that there could very plausibly be a Jojo Rabbit esque scene where it's not really a real attempt on his life or planned out by her, but Charity raises a knife up to Finn's chest, and Finn stops it from touching him before she has a breakdown and leaves... Considering what was going on and her whole stance + perspective, though, it's one of those things where I honestly can't blame her that much. She deserves to stab someone, just as a treat. (It's also important to know that in general, her usually clear cut way of viewing morals will definitely end up making things very difficult for her when there's not always an obvious "right" decision for her to make. I can't completely confirm nor deny, but it is likely that she will end up having to kill a person in a situation where there's no way to leave without your hands being a little dirty 👀 If it ends up working in the plot, I'd really enjoy writing how she'd deal with that.)

SEND “ ✿ ” FOR 2 HEADCANONS FOR OUR MUSES’ RELATIONSHIP // Always accepting

OKAY, OKAY, I GOT SO MANY but I GOTTA narrow it down.

1: While John & Jack's relationship is undeniably strained due to John's absence during Jack's early years, plus the whole "He's not my son" thing in 1899, but despite that, Jack genuinely loves his father, and it shows in the way Jack does things to connect with John or to get him to notice him (aka the whole 'going to hunt a bear thing'). Despite Jack's love for books, I can see him asking John to go out hunting or for John to offer to teach Jack stuff. It's their awkward way of saying "I want to spend time with you, I want to know you."

2: Jack takes a lot after Dutch and Arthur, that's a fact. But whether John likes it or not, Jack definitely took on a lot of traits from him. Their death seeker tendencies (as implied by his dialogue in gunfights. As he will usually shout something along the lines of “Go ahead! I got nothin’ to live for!”), their hair-trigger temper (which is usually of the more calm and collected variety since they rarely raise their voice or lose their calm) and finally, their skills. Jack is just as good as John was, or even better.

All in all, Jack is a carbon copy of John but with Arthur thrown into the mix. As an adult, he has his father's looks and personality but Arthur's intelligence. Even his default outfit is a combination of the clothes John and Arthur wear; the hat, shirt and belt are John's, while the brown/beige jacket, black pants and boots - while not an exact match - seem to be based on Arthur.

Hiiii! 34,2 and 8 for the ask game! :]

Ooo yay another one!

32- If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go?

Does it have to be in reality? If not, I’d go to the Princess Bride universe. I really want to have a sword fight with someone right now.

2- Do you drink tea or coffee?

I drink both (if iced coffee counts). I take Redbush tea with oat milk (I’m super picky about tea, sue me) and I love a specific brand of espresso iced coffee that I can only find at Home Bargains for sole reason

8- Who’s your favorite band/ artist

Some more of my faces are Beabadoobee, Hozier, and Radiohead!

tropes: enemies to lovers, kidfic, noir au, crossovers

enemies to lovers

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I love enemies to lovers in theory. It is ripe for conflict and interesting character development. It's about developing compassion and taking other perspectives into account. It's about the person you've shown cruelty towards knowing you the best. The thing is that I just haven't really found a lot of good shit? Even outside of fandom, I haven't found anything that really scratches this particular itch. Fic authors aren't required to write a novel or anything, and I support writing a good hate fuck, but I come to this trope hoping for more.

kidfic

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I mostly don't really like how people write kids tbh. They're complex people too. I'm also definitely not the audience for cuteness pandering, it just doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. I also think that while people may change in the process of raising a kid, it's also likely that they'll just continue to perpetuate their shitty behaviors, but now just inflict it on someone who can't escape. I don't really buy magic healing baby a lot of the time. I have read a few really good ones in my day though, and it can be sweet.

noir au

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I'm going to be honest, I haven't seen this one out in the wild (outside of MASH noir), but I'd be down! Noir is cool! Violence, cynicism, sex, what else could you ask for?

crossover

No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know |

I just have fun with crossovers. I love mixing different characters together, destroying narratives, piecing together the same people from different circumstances in different worlds. I just enjoy the humor of forcing wildly different people to interact with each other. The only reason why this isn't higher is because a LOT of garbage is in these waters. Probably because a lot of kids write these lol. Still fun when done right! I've also come across some pretty hard hitting stuff too, even if it's rarer.

[servantleverslutdrop]

i like jordie is alive fics where kaz is fucking pissed and wants nothing to do with him, not because of not believing jordie isn't alive, but because of jordie's choices leading up to everything, and then not looking for kaz after he'd lived

Soooo true. Kaz IS so unforgiving to Jesper because he is still angry with Jordie likkee. For being a stupid kid, for getting himself killed, for not protecting him, for ruining Kaz's life, etc. And then he has the gall to, what? Live? With the ability to touch others? Without the stain of the Barrel on him? Fuck that. I'll recc a couple fics I enjoyed:
