Truth

[writingjourney]

Friends, self-reblogs of your art or your fics are not weird or self-obsessed or shameful. I don’t know who started saying that and why this is such a thing, but we’ve always done it. Reblogs are what keep posts alive, that’s what differentiates tumblr from other platforms. I love re-reading fics because the author reblogged them. Many people may not have seen a post the first or second time it appeared on the dash or they’re recent followers. You didn’t spend hours drawing that artwork or writing that fic for it to disappear into the void. You're allowed to be proud of your creations. Reblog your posts, promote them. Share content. Please.

I recently found out that nerites are “”” nocturnal” (they just prefer low light) after just not seeing my nerite for weeks and just assuming she died And Now every night before bed i go to my tank with a flashlight to see if she’s up and just start whispering “SQUISHYYYYYYYYY!!!………SQUISHY!!!!! HEY GIRL!!!!” in the dark for like 2 minutes

Hello! For the oc ask game…

9 for the about you?

9- favorite size ranges for giants/tinies?

Ooo I love this question! I guess for giants I prefer 150 feet and over to be honest. I have no idea why, but it just makes room for so much angst and comfort and all of that good stuff :D

For tinies I don’t really have a preference, just as long as they’re four inches or shorter. Otherwise you lose my interest and I’m very sorry but that is the sad truth TwT

Thank you for the ask anon!

I give my grad speech in a week, have been writing a million versions of what I want to say in my head all year, talked to my mom last night, boy did she separate the wheat from the chaff.

what would happen if you really took everything you’ve learned about the law and yourself to heart? not to your mind, but to your heart? what would shift if you implemented allowing your heart to lead instead of your head?

So there’s this fic called Crimson River (idk if you’ve heard of it read it) it’s technically a wolfstar & jegulus, but that aside it’s quite a fantastic bit of internal monologue from Aberforth regarding James and Sirius.

“ The bond between James and Sirius is something entirely other. He has never before seen anything that could compare to it. What James and Sirius have doesn’t exist in history, and may never exist again - not just once in a lifetime, but once in any lifetime.  This is not history repeating itself, therefore it is unprecedented. Aberforth had no doubt in his mind that James and Sirius could undergo any form of torture and come out the other side entirely themselves, but he does doubt that they wouldn’t toss everything that they are, and all that they stand for, if it could mean sparing one another any bit of pain.”

i do know the fic!! i think it’s impossible to be in certain fandoms w/o hearing about some fics and this is one of those. the whole thing sounds amazing but it’s just,,,the ships lol (although,,,if i’m hearing it right,,,zar might be…dipping a toe into j/s soon so i need someone to ping me if that happens bc i’d run so fast—i love their entire energy so much my god)

and this really sums it up why bc it’s so, SO accurate for j & s. they have a bond that’s so unique and so codependent, it’s hard to separate where one begins and the other ends. and zar gets it ykno? no matter what romantic ship they might be a part of, the other is an integral part to them and this passage captures it so brilliantly. esp that last bit about enduring anything for their own self but if anything happen to the other, they’d go feral. like, i firmly believe that sirius is a bit broken not because of azkaban but bc he lost james. if for whatever reason (not that it’s possible lol) james was alive & he still ended up going thru 12 years in azkaban, i don’t think he’d be as he was. james’ death is so fundamental to who he is post halloween, it’s just !!!!!! i don’t even have words lol

thank u so much for sending this to me <33
