Jkjkjk, I wanna know what got you into anime/manga, your favorite western piece of media (webcomic, movie, book, whatever) and if you have any pets. I have a cat. He's really cute.

My journey towards anime was pretty interesting if I may say so myself. I’ve always liked the art style, as long as I can remember. One of my favorite childhood movies was Cat Returns from Studio Ghibli. That was way before I even knew what anime was, possibly even before I knew Japan existed. But I was never really interested in watching anime or reading manga because it just felt like such a huge thing for a very specific audience and the idea of watching something that I knew pretty much nothing about wasn’t very appealing. It all changed when I started doing roleplays and one of my partners and teachers of this lovely craft threw in Grell Sutcliff one day. I thought the character was interesting so I decided to give Kuroshitsuji a watch. But even after that, it was a slow process. It took me about ten different anime (most of which I don’t even remember anymore because I dropped them pretty quickly) to actually get a taste for the archetypes, the language, and the overall atmosphere. Manga took me even longer to get into because I’ve never been a fan of long comics and they bore me very quickly. It wasn’t until I came around to Makai ouji: Devils and realist that I started enjoying manga as well.

As for western media, I’ve, naturally, been around them for way longer. Possibly even because of that, it’s very hard for me to pick a singular favorite here. When it comes to movies, I tend to prefer underrated gems but also appreciate some of the widely successful films out there. I’ve recently downloaded Rango, I adore Coraline, I’m absolutely smitten with Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron. I can’t even begin to tell how much I love Prince of Egypt or Cats Don’t Dance or Treasure Planet. Megamind is another one I really enjoyed. Or we can go into live-action movies, I had the time of my life when I was watching The Matrix, Nightcrawler or the MIB series. I also love some movies from my country, though most of those made here are cringy and bad. But then we have masterpieces like There’s no joking with the devil, The Mysterious Castle in the Carpathians, or Lemonade Joe. And they’re all amazing!

Books are another huge category that’s very hard to judge. I practically worship the tension in Poe’s stories but The Little Prince made me cry harder than probably any other piece of fiction ever. Shakespeare is easy to read and entertaining, Agatha Christie stimulates my little grey cells in ways I didn’t know were possible and my all-time favorite Czech author, Karel Čapek, writes with such beautiful sad melancholy, yet such bright hope that there’s simply nothing coming even closer to the impact his stories leave on the soul. Connected to this is the theatre and especially Jára Cimrman’s theatre. The play Visionary will simply give you chills once you realize all the subtle hints and language craft put to work and the very last scene, with the grim reaper peacefully smiling at the audience as he bids them goodbye simply will make your blood run cold.

And then it comes to amateur production and you know what, I actually have a very clear winner there. Go watch all parts of THIS and try telling me it’s not absolutely hilarious. It’s got English subs so y’all can enjoy it to the fullest. This group also has a very new mini-movie called Area51, I’m still working on subs for that one.

Finally, your last question, the pets. As of right now, I have two (or do younger siblings count as pets?), those being an Erdel terrier pup and a bunny. The pup is called Marie Therese von Morgenstern and bunny is Sir William the Fluffball. No, my family is not normal. They have a lot in common, such as being chubby, eating everything, biting people (though William doesn’t really anymore) and hating to have to stay at home. They’re also both kind of drama queens and pretty talkative. Therese doesn’t want to obey at all and it’s always a challenge to get her to come home when we take her out on a walk, William is much easier to handle because he’s tiny. Also, Will is a cuddler while Terry is a wild beast that breaks and devours everything in her close surroundings.

From what I know, @enmutrainconductor owns one of Muzan’s relatives so maybe the pet question would be more interesting there? Anyway, I hope you liked this and that I didn’t exhaust you too much.

Dear Author—

First of all, you need to know how enormously warm and OVI PROUD for you I already feel about what you’re going to write.

I’m a bit of a ridiculous prompter, but they’re written that way because I’m hoping something—whether it’s the general outline or just one of the silly little details—will really strike your fancy. Don’t feel like you need to use every suggestion, and if you have another fun idea, run with it! If you look at something I suggested and think "Uh, obviously that would be what happened, it would happen like THIS instead, duh,” YES. Do it that way.

Please print out a favorite Proud Ovi photo for me and pin it to the wall of your Writing Lair. Good Things, generally:

Yes, no matter how completely bonkers my original prompt was, you are invited to put MORE HOCKEY in it. You have blanket permission to write a canon hockey-playing story in which my original batshit weird prompt is a metaphor or literary theme

Even without hockey, WINTER THEMES

Team team team. Lots of social dynamics going on, especially in dialogue. The more guys talking over each other, the more I like it

The positive and the negative ways social culture (of team sports, social class, countries) affects people. This includes my love for little daily habits or thoughts that someone living away from their country of origin might have

Different people liking different things (including different kinds and amounts of sex, and different people!) and that being OK

Things I Do Not Like So Much, generally:

Gender essentialism (including describing physical traits like muscle development, body hair, and calluses as ‘male’ or a vague “softness” as ‘female.’ Characters can absolutely still admire those traits! Just write about how nice they look and feel on this particular person, or how the narrator personally reacts to them.)

Unquestioned stereotypes about sexual identity/sexual role, formalized primary/secondary poly dynamics

Unquestioned national stereotypes

Unquestioned social class stereotypes

“Everybody’s gay”/ Everybody already knows/A character’s fears were All In Their Head

Injury for pure Drama.

The Prompts:

(Again, yes, you may make all of these about playing hockey. Honestly, please tell me how these prompts are really about hockey. )

Nicklas Backstrom/Alexander Ovechkin—Howl’s Moving Castle

Does the whole countryside believe Wizard Ovechkin eats young people’s hearts, except for one sensible hatmaker, who seeks shelter from the winter cold…only to find the wizard hungover in a castle full of dog hair and unwashed teenage apprentices? Or does our hero bully his way into the castle, remind antisocial Wizard Backstrom to go to his appointments and answer that stack of letters from King Barry about the war, and redecorate in beautiful Russian style?

I think Don Cherry is the Witch of the Northern Waste either way.

Good things:

Mix it up! Maybe we’ve got an ice demon, not a fire demon; maybe there’s no demon and more of a Koschei the Deathless situation, or other Russian/Swedish elements, and small or significant changes to the plot

Demon played by a long-suffering TJ, trapped on a line/in an ash bucket listening to them?

Whichever one is cursed enjoying the heck out of life as a grumpy old man with a stick. Gimme some thoughts and feelings about aging as an athlete

Braden Holtby/Evgeny Kuznetsov—Beauty and the Beast

Holts is Beauty.

Pick any setting you like: canon, modern AU, classic fairytale, the whacky AU of your dreams. Just give me them sharing space, slowly getting past that first grouchy impression.

Good things:

HoltBelle doing crosswords in a castle library

All the Caps being touched by the curse—and go as dark as you want with that

At least, like, five more Caps than anyone would want trying to Fix Things. (Picking which Capital is MOST like a singing candlestick is not easy. Might be Schmidt. Nicky and Ovi are a beautiful matched tea set, with all their rookie teacups)

Braden Holtby/Nate Schmidt—Books books books books books

I have JUST NOW remembered that Schmidt's last Better Halves Player Gift Basket not only included the Harry Potter chess set, but ALSO a copy of The Secrets of the FBI. Please meditate with me on what, and why, is on Nate Schmidt's reading list.

They've both given a lot of solid interviews on what it's like to be an athlete and read and learn largely outside of school when the world around you isn't really encouraging that, a subject dear to my heart, so I'd love to see more about that. Anything about reading and exploring and being extremely intense and focused doofs:

Does Nate Schmidt carefully Sort everyone in the league into the right Hogwarts houses, and occasionally scream “HUFFLEPUFF!” in delight from the bench at a passing opponent who mostly speaks Czech?

Does Holtby sometimes surface from a post-loss funk to realize that the last 5 minutes of this pep talk have sounded...suspiciously like Dumbledore quotes?

I'm really stuck on the FBI thing: how often has Schmidt dragged Braden around a new city reading historical landmark signs, and then spend lunch sitting outside a cafe guessing which passersby are undercover agents?

Does he have a Double-Secret, Holts-Only-Clearance list ranking who on the team would be the best secret agent? (I’ve been imagining all of these as a tired-but-charmed-and-touched Holts POV, but you can do either, and have Nate slowly becoming passionately convinced Holts would be the bestest James Bond ever)

I'm also happy to see a judgmental geek rift between Holtby's Serious Business crosswords and fantasy novels that they needed to work through over the years.

Or, write me a You’ve Got Mail story where they never really started talking and are both feelin secretly a bit lonely on the team, so they go home at night and chat with their BFF on Goodreads who always has the best lists and reviews....

Nicklas Backstrom/Andre Burakovsky/Marcus Johansson

The most stately and reserved courtship in Vague Historical Sweden is interrupted by a brash, unexpected young suitor.

Some quick possibilities to help you start:

1). Vague Historical Sweden

Nicky, a prince or an heir to something, is resigned to marrying someone proper who he can’t ever tell about his 20-year prank war against Polite Society. So he’s been silent and dead-eyed and thinks that’s how you court somebody

Mojo would quite like to be married, so he’ll never have to go to another formal ball where people ask him about The Wars. (Instead he will hide in a comfy study, writing more secret drafts of the secret military memoirs he definitely won’t ever publish.) Their match has been Expected for years, but they’ve barely talked and he keeps getting anxious, calling Nicky by either a full formal title or ‘Lars,’ which makes Nicky look even more dead inside, and tripping over things. Many a tactical retreat has been called.

Polite Society is...pretty sure Andre’s a fortune-hunter. He keeps asking each of them for a dance at every ball, and inviting them to skating parties, and trying very, very hard to be impressive.

2.) Award-winning Vikings

Nicky is a shieldmaiden (please don’t question me. Vague Historical Sweden does gender roles differently), and keeps a prosperous farm. Mojo is maybe the son of the next landowner over, has made a name for himself raiding, and everyone in town agrees they’d be a fine Viking couple.

Andre, who was captured on a raid or is a jarl’s kid or something, don’t ask me, also thinks they are a fine Viking couple.

3.) Modern royalty. Space royalty. Magic. Go mad with your power.

I like happiness, but I’m okay with bittersweet too. As much pining and miscommunication as you like, and any kinks or power dynamics you’ll have fun writing. You can end with a triad, a V, or a dyad if you…really want to, I guess, as long as it isn’t moralistic. The relationships don’t have to be the same, but please no formal primary/secondary poly dynamics, though.

You are best.

Interview with Taedal

As a celebration for gaining (somehow) 300, For the past few days you could asked various questions which Taedal is supposed to answer in this interview. So, everything you ever wanted to know about him,or just to know what he knows, here it is! Additional warning: It’s long.

Q: Does Luxien is also a dreadlord or is she an other kind of demon?

Taedal: Both our parents are dreadlords, genetically speaking Luxien is also a dreadlord. Taedal: However, given her experiments with the Void, Twisting Nether, undeath and other things… It’s hard to tell what she is now. Taedal: Most of people settle with that she is still quite sexy when her form is stable.

Q: How does the Golden Torch react when you start to talk about Blizzard (Breaking the 4th wall, simply)?

Taedal: To quote one of my advisors, Corrazzale. Taedal: (In a very irritated voice with strong French accent) “Oh here he goes again, cursing the weather.”

Q: What make you take the decision to leave the Legion?

Taedal: The official version I give to people varies from “I saw the error of my ways” to “I hate being bossed around”. Taedal: The unofficial… Taedal: Look, in a game where players kill things, you don’t want to be a member of the All Evil Organization. Especially not one of the people in charge of something.

Q: What were you doing before you get the idea of the Golden Torch?

Taedal: Eh, you know. World destruction. Soul tormention. Sentient race conquering. Taedal: And also the Annual Volleyball Tournament. There were so many teams participating in AVT that when one ended, we had to start the next one right away.

Q: How did you convinced the others to became the Golden Torch?

Taedal: I didn’t really convince anyone. Taedal: Once I just mentioned to Cheret that I was really thinking about quitting and he asked me if he could quit with me. Taedal: And suddenly I had a bunch of demons eager to leave at my heels.

Q: What is your favorite(s) zone(s) in all Azeroth? (Outland and Draenor included)?

Taedal: Hm… The Forgotten Isle is easy to say, but there are better places. Taedal: Nagrand is beautiful. But I’m going with Zul’drak which is also beautiful and has one of the most awesome soundtracks. Taedal: And yes, I do hear soundtracks.

Q: If you could get high (as in height, no drugs) and sing, what would you sing?

Taedal: I don’t really sing. I am a terrible singer. Even if I could push my voice high or low, it’d be terrible, I am sure of that. Taedal: But if I have to say a song… When I Get Low I Get High.

Q: Tell us something embarrassing that’s happened to you.

Taedal: Alright, seat yourself, it’s story time. Taedal: Back in the Legion we were invading this one world, its name doesn’t matter as it no longer exists. And I come into a temple to destroy it. And there is this highpriest and bunch of bishops and acolytes. But most importantly the highpriest. Taedal: Now the Legion has the rules of epic, because when you are evil, you have to be evil with style. So dreadlords are pretty much expected to deliver a speech whenever there is even a minor chance of an epic battle or a boss-fight. Taedal: So I start the speech as I am supposed to do, I do the nice “cover mortals” and “kneel before your lord” and “your ultimate demise”. Now I’m getting to mention “reign of chaos will soar thorough your world”, which is my favorite part and this highpriest had apparently never heard of the rule of epic, because he banishes memid-sentence. Taedal: Irritating and embarrassing for it was in a crowded temple.

Q: I’m pretty sure you got an hidden talent, what is it?

Taedal: Whatever hidden talent I have, it is hidden so well I hadn’t found it yet. Taedal: But I’ve been always strangely good at locating lost and hidden treasures. Does it count?

Q: With which leader(s) you like to hang out the most? (And the one to not bring in your opinion)

Taedal: Ji and Anduin make for good companions to talk to, both show a lot of interest. Baine is less happy with me but the best person to play Hearthstone with. Taedal: And… Look, I have nothing against Velen, however he could be less… Less exorcising me on sight. Taedal: On the other hand, being around Thrall is even worse. He has a terrible paladin syndrome and is supper depressive person to talk to.

Q: How many walls did you broke?

Taedal: Ever since I managed to crash our nethership into the Labyrinth at Descension point, I lost count. Taedal: Before that it was 36. I get thrown around quite often.

Q: So, how was Argus?

Taedal: Dunno. Never been there. Taedal: My parents were from Argus, yeah, but me and Luxien were born after they joined the Legion. So me and sis are pure felbreed.

Q: What was the more surprising thing on Azeroth for you when you came?

Taedal: The variety of races. Taedal: I had visited a lot of worlds, you know. Most of them has one or two sentient races. Some of them has also some still-sentient-but-less-civilized races. Taedal: And then there is Azeroth with 17 playable races and some sentient but not playable races like the Nighborn, Nagas or Ramkahen plus some less civilized but sentient races such as Gnolls, Murlocs or those shrimpy things. Taeda: And I’m not even talking about the sub-races.

Q: Do you have a profession? Which one? Or which one would you like to do?

Taedal: NPCs don’t get professions like players do and even those we have don’t work the same way. They are more… Normal, less game-like. Taedal: As a hunter, I of course know how to skin a beast and cook it into something edible. Tame and train the beast as well, preferably before it gets skinned. I am a skilled arrowmaker too and as every demon with hooves I can smith a decent horseshoe. Taedal: If you want to give it a label… Skinning and Blacksmithing.

Q: Do you regret something?

Taedal: Yeah. I should have brought myself a glass of water for this interview, my throat is as dry as Tanaris. Taedal: Alright, let’s be serious. I sort of regret not bringing Luxien to the Golden Torch. On the other hand if I’d made her to leave the Burning Legion against her will she’d turned against me or maybe she would go insane with time, so we’d have to fight her anyway. Taedal: …I’ve mentioned to you that we have to fight Luxien as a raid end-boss, right? Taedal: Oh. I totally forgot. I’ll fix that. Taedal: Listen everybody! I have a really powerful sister and she is evil and has a working plan how to dissect this world to atoms so we have to fight her!

Q: Do you have a favorite mount?

Taedal: As a matter of fact, I don’t. Taedal: I mean, I already have a favorite pet and it’s unfair as it is to the other pets. Taedal: No need to be unfair to the mounts, of whom all are perfect.

Q: Do you like to live on Azeroth?

Taedal: Better to be living on Azeroth than to be dead somewhere else. So I am not complaining. Taedal: But if I had to choose a retirement resort, I would most certainly not pick Azeroth.

Q: How is your relationship with the other demons of the Golden Torch?

Taedal: They think I am weird but that I know what I am doing so they don’t mind doing what I tell them to do, as long as they have something from it too. And I think that strength is in numbers and there are not many people who listen to you if you don’t have an army. Taedal: So I think we have the “mutual trust and cooperation” relationship.

Q: Can you tell us more about Luxien?

Taedal: She is big and beautiful. By dreadlord standards anyway. She could dress more and her hair has its life on its own, I suppose. She doesn’t as much praise knowledge as experiments, she has to see everything on her own. Taedal: I mean, she is pretty much that kind of a person to whom you tel not to put a fork in an outlet because it’d zap you, and she’d do just that to find out whether it’s true or not. Or maybe even better, she’d find someone else to put the fork there. Taedal: She is also a skilled spellcaster. A fel-mage, if you want. Not really good with weapons, but she never needed them. She is clever enough to booby trap any place she lives, rarely anyone wanders onto her. Taeda: She is also lactose intolerant. No idea what are you going to do with this information.

Q: How would you feel becoming the main character of a fanfic?

Taedal: (Excited bat noises) Taedal: Erhem. I meant… It sounds quite cool.

Q: Your favorite(s) activity(ies) to do?

Taedal: I really love volleyball. And walks with my pets. Seriously, my pets and I spend a lot of time together, whether it’s walk, training, hoofcare, clawcare or things like that.

Q: Any fun fact(s)?

Taedal: My name is in fact Latin taeda, which means torch, with additional L so it looks like a name. Taedal: Luxien, as you have probably guessed at this point, is delivered from lux, which is Latin for light. And Czech for vacuum cleaner, which connects her to her experiments with Void. Taedal: A lot of demons that have to do something with the Golden Torch have light-themed names. When it comes to it, a lot of places on the Forgotten Isle follows the pattern too. Taedal: And Torchkeep is a play on Candlekeep - starting location in Baldur’s Gate. We have a lot of books there too. Just ask Cheret.

Q: One time, we ask you to draw something. You drew seven stickmen. Can we have an explanation or still not?

Taedal: Oh yeah, this… Those were the Seven Deadly Sins. Taedal: Considered my drawing skills, I was seriously thinking about drawing seven different sines, but that’d be too nerd.

Q: Did you and the Golden Torch tried another planets before coming to Azeroth?

Taedal: We had three ideas where to go, Azeroth among them as the Legion’s prime thorn in side. Me and the advisors were voting then with the resut 3:1:1 for Azeroth Taedal: Vand’tet abstained from voting as her idea was “we rush in and kill everyone within the Legion”.

Q: Is Illidan a good godfather or did the Illidari got a new member?

Taedal: Yeah about that… Taedal: I hate to tell you that but it was all fake news. You know, a shipment of damaged pregnancy tests can cause mass panic. Or celebration. Taedal: Illidan was really disappointed he isn’t going to be a godfather. Taedal: The only children we actually got were Garrosh’s 37 adopted ghost children for the simple reason that pregnacy tests have to effect on adoption. Taedal: Of course, Illidan asked Garrosh if he could be godfather of at least one of those children, but Garrosh, being Garrosh, was against that.

Q: How was it among the other Dreadlord?

Taedal: Quite good actually. The arguments could get quite heated and you don’t want to be in a room full of Dreadlords making angry bat noises setting each other aflame, but aside form that it was nice. Taedal: I miss the sleepovers. There is nothing like hanging upside down from the ceiling side by side with your fellows and whispering quietly not to wake the others up.

Q: If you get your own datadisc, what would you do with it?

Taedal: No spoilers, sweetheart, sorry. Where would the thrill of waiting be? Taedal: Well… I guess I can give you a little teaser, so you’re going to be angry with Blizzard for not making it happen anyway. Hold your hats and grab a good chair, here we go! Taedal: A playable demon race with 6 Classes. Hellfire Nights event, celebrated the last week of April and with its own event dungeon. 4 new raids, such as Voidforge or Ivory Sanctum, and 12 new dungeons, for example Cavern of Time: Descension, K’areshan Manaforge or Eternal Prison. Also 4 new big factions with which you may gain reputation. There is a lot of lore explained and some minor interesting things, like Ethereal or Wrathion, will once again be of importance. Not to mention the Fogotten Isle and some distant worlds added as a location. And also a new profession, Painting. Taedal: And I owe Lord Theron ten golds, ‘cause we had a bet going on whether I would or wouldn’t spill the beans. Damned Elves and their psychology.

Q: As we are the First of April, a question of circumstance: Are you a trickster? Or something like that?

Taedal: I wouldn’t call myself a trickster, on the other hand a lot of other people do. For sure I am no such a person as, say, Loki, but I enjoy a good joke just like everyone else. Taedal: What I am trying to say is that from time to time I do a little harmless mischievous joke. But even I admit that making everyone else read 50 Shades of Gray was a kinda… Overboard.

Q: How is the average day for the Golden Torch?

Taedal: We start our day with emergency, because some Voidforge battlesquad has been bored and decided they need their ass kicked and go attack us. Taedal: Then we have a quiet and nice afternoon, everyone minding their own business. Handing out quests, taking care of pets and mounts, preparing lunch and such. Taedal: By lunch usually return the nether-stalkers, so we (and by we I mean I) update the map of the Twisting Nether along with the positions of the Void and Legion forces. Taedal: After that me and my advisors have an argument what are we going to do with it and usually settle with “sabotage but keep low”. Taedal: Later Khadghar pops in to see how are we doing and stuff, so we tell him that nothing unusual happened and there’s nothing to worry about. And so we can proceed to the dinner.

Q: If you could meet the anon who asked for you to exist, what would you do? :)

Taedal: I am not really sure. Maybe hug. Maybe thanks. Most likely I’d play it like no big deal. Taedal: ‘Twas you, wasn’t it?

Ask game

Rules: answer 21 questions and tag 21 people. Because I always feel I little bit nervous, when I need to tag people I like or follow, I would like to see answers of everyone who found this game interesting!

Tagged by @kasielartist. If you don’t know her, just go to check her awesome arts. She’s very talented and I think we will hear about her more in the future. And she’s very kind and modest. Just a precious. :)

Warning: I love writing, so everything you’ll read by me is pretty long. Not Sorry.

Nickname(s): My father started to call me “Niki” when I was 4 years old and I’m so used to it, that I practically like it more that my real name. Some of my friends likes to call me “Angel”, because I like to help people. That’s why my full nickname is Niki Angel. And yes, my older sister calls me “špunt”, that’s a czech slang for “very small person”.

Zodiac: Acording to Horoscope, I am -- creative (yes), passionate (kind of), generous (yes!), warm-hearted (yes!!), cheerful (yes!!!), humorous (trying but failing), arrogant (well, yes), stubborn (more than anyone around me), self-centered (nope), lazy (ooooh), inflexible (yes, and I hate it) -- a summer and Sun child, Leo.

Height: Something between dwarf, human and elf -- 1.55 cm.

Hogwarts house: Traits: dedication, hardworking, fairness, patience, kindness, tolerance, modesty, loyalty and produced the fewest Dark wizards of all the four Houses. Who I am? I’m Jean Valjean Hufflepuff! I remember how sad I was like a kid when everyone thinked about me like a stupid person, just because I was in the Hufflepuff. But, after some time, I wear our colors just proud as other houses. Because we have nothing to be ashamed of! Just look at the traits! That’s something what can change the world in the most positive way!

Last thing I googled: Keanu Reeves. It was because in Czech republic he isn’t so popular and everyone around tumblr and youtube are just so crazy about him that I wanted to know why. Now I know and I watched two films yesterday with him in lead role.

Fave musician(s): I FREAKING LOVE MUSIC. My taste it’s pretty diverse. I wrote only favorite of every gender of music I listen mostly everyday, because otherwise we would be there for more than a week. When you click at the name of the artist(s) you can hear my favorite song made by them.

Kpop: Ultimate favorite is “TVXQ”. It was my first Kpop band back in 2007, when I started to listening Kpop. Then I love “VIXX” (+ “Leo” / “Ravi” / “LR)”, “4Minute” (+ “HyunA” / “TripleH” / “Troublemaker”) and “KARD”. Others I like to listen everyday:

Girlband: “2NE1″ (+ “CL”), “AOA” (+ “Jimin”), “BLACKPINK”, “Brown Eyed Girls” (+ “GaIn”), “CLC”, “EXID”, “Girl’s Day”, “Girl’s Generation” (+ “Taeyeon”), “Miss A”, “Red Velvet”, “Secret” (+ “Hyoseong” / “Jieun”), “SISTAR” (+ “Hyolyn”), “Stellar”, “T-ARA”

Boyband: “100%”, “B.A.P” (+ “Yongguk & Zelo”), “B1A4″, “BEAST”, “Big Bang” (+ “G-dragon”), “Block B”, “BTOB”, “BTS” (+ “Rapmoster” / “Agust D”), “EXO”, “GOT7″, “iKON”, “INFINITE”, “JJCC”, “MBLAQ”, “MONSTA X”, “Nu’est”, “SHINee”, “SS501″, “Super Junior”, “U-Kiss”

Solo: “Ailee”, “BoA”, “DEAN”, “HOLAND”, “Hyoshin”, “Jessi”, “Sunmi”, “YEZI”

Rock / Alternative: Tie between “Panic! At the Disco” and “The Score”. Their music helped me on every exam on university and inspireted one of my biggest Les Mis fanfic project (I think it will be done next spring). Others: “8 graves”, “30 Second to the Mars”, “Billie Eilish”, “Against The Current”, “Coldplay”, “Disturbed”, “Evanescence”, “Fall Out Boy”, “Five Finger Death Punch”, “Get Scared”, “grandson”, “Hurts”, “Imagine Dragons”, “Linkin Park”, “MISSIO”, “Nine Inch Nails”, “One Republic”, “Set It Off”, “SIAMÉS”, “Starset”, “The Cab”, “Thousand Foot Krutch”, “The Neighbourhood”, “Twenty One Pilots“, “Digital Daggers”

Followers: 10! And I really appreciate it. I’m still new to tumblr, not so active and my fanfiction writing is still on start. Hope, maybe after some years, I will have more thank to my works.

Song stuck in your head: “Imagine Dragons songs battle - Peter Hollens vs. Chase Holfelder”.

Amount of sleep: 2-4 hours per day. I’m so used to live under pressure, stress and lack of sleep, that’s is weird to sleep more than 4 hours. That sometimes happens on holidays, 1-2 times in year. And I seriously don’t remember how much sleep I’m getting. Maybe 8 or 9. Irony -- I love sleeping, but we have some love-hate relationship.

Lucky number: 13. Stuck with me from my middle school years.

Do you get asks: Actually - no. And I need you to know, that I’m absolutely okay with them. So if you want to ask something or just chat or you have problem and want to help, just messege me. I’m open to everyone.

What are you wearing: Red summer dress. (And, yes, I’m not one of the fashionable person you want to know.)

Dream job: Soldier! But... Well, I’m too small and not 100 % healthy so I must give up this dream when I was 14 years old and my doctor told me that I will never be a soldier. It was pretty hard for me back then, but I decided to work for police in Special Victims Unit with focus on sexual abuse on children. I’m slowly getting there thank to studying and hard work!

Instrument(s): I played piano profesionally for 10 years. I stopped after some time on highschool because I could no longer attend courses in my town. I can still play it, but don’t have piano or keyboard at home, so I sometimes play on train stations just for the nostalgy. BUT! I want to buy my favorite piano for 30. birthday. Hope I will save the money, I have 7 years for it. OH, and I can play some songs on quitar.

Language(s): Motherlanguage is czech, so is absolutely normal for me to understand slovak. I speak english, even thoughs I have C1 certificate, I’m nervous and can’t speak or write without shaking, sweating and making stupid mistakes. I learned german on middle and high school, but can’t say a shit practically anything in this freaking language. When someone ask me something in croatian, polish or russian, I mostly understand but I blame it on Slavic roots. And I’m learning french for 6 months now, because I always wanted to speak and understand this language.

Fav song(s): “Hurricane by 30 Second to the Mars”! Mentioned already in the “Favorite musician(s)” ask.

Aesthetic: piano sheets, coffee, blue color, literature, music, theather, optimistic thoughts, deep thoughts, dogs, family, friends, love... <3

Random fact(s): My lucky number is 13, so 13 random facts about me!

MY FAVORITE book is “The Picture of Dorian Gray”; musical is “The Phantom of the Opera”; anime is “Yu Yu Hakusho”; manga is “Ao no Exorcist”; film is “The Shawshank Redemption"; series is “Game of Thrones” but not the season 8; band is “TVXQ”; color is blue in any shade; season is autumn; dogbreed is “Czechoslovakian woldog” and icecream with flavour of citrone or pistachio.

My biggest dream it’s make everyone on this world happy, satisfied, loved and accepted.

I’m coffe AND tea person. I can’t choose what I love more!

I love cleaning the house while listening (and stupidly dancing and falsely singing) to music.

My life motto? “Freedom. Beauty. Truth. Love.” Bohemian all the way!

I’m pretty shy and don’t talk much at first. I like to be around people, don’t get me wrong, but mostly I’m a listener. That’s maybe why I love writing so much.

I already know what song will play at my funeral! It’s “Lacrimosa from Requiem by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart”.

I’m romantic! If you’re my parnert just prepare to be woke up with your favorite breakfast, we will watch your favorite series and talk about it all the time, I will plan our vacation just to make sure it will be unforgettable for you, I will buy your favorite perfume, I will DIY presents for you, I will respect and love you with all my heart, I will praise your work, I will learn about your hobbies and support them... Yeah, my friends call it’s “annoyingly submissive” but who cares? That’s just me.

Even thought what I wrote here (^8.) - I fall in love only one time in my whole life. It was 2 months after my 18. birthday. He was tall, black-haired cishet man, witty, inteligent, humourus, gently, ironic, sarcastic and beautiful human being. And he’s my boyfriend for 5 years now and we have awesome 1 year old daugher.

I studied law and public administration in highschool and criminology on university. In Semptember this year (2019) I’ll start my master’s degree for public safety and 2 years long psychology practice. After this I’ll go to work and start my distance learning of psychology (A/N: 3 years for bachelor + 2 years for master + 4 years for doctor + 2 years of another practive - then exams and only AFTER ALL OF THIS you can become a psychiatrics with your own office! That’s why I wanted start studying this subject AFTER my police graduation).

I have emepthophobia - abnormal and very strong fear of throwing up. This is why I eat only things I know for long time (no raw meat, no sushi, no experimental cusaine); I don’t like eating at restaurants (I’m afraid that some guest can get nauseated and start throwing up); I don’t go to amusent parks and never was (and I'll never be!) on their attractions; I am abstinent (Don’t try to force, seriously); I don’t like to be around drunk people; I hate hospitals and doctors (even thought a deeply respect them, but try to get the tube into my mouth ONE MORE TIME AND WILL DESTROY ALL YOUR BLOODLINE) and I HATE films when they put throwing up like “comedic” aspect (mostly American comedies. That’s why I don’t watch them.). Actually, just writing it down makes me anxious because I imagine all the things I’m writing and it’s horrible... (I needed to stop writing, calm myself for like half a hour and even after this I didn’t wrote everything that I hate about this phobia).

I’m demisexual but still don’t see myself as a part of the LGBT+ comunity. Maybe because when I come out some friends of the comunity (namely gay, lesbian a trans female lesbian) they say that “demisexuality is nothing compare their fight for rights” and it’s “just another heterosexual made-up thing for which don’t want sex or want to judge others who love sex with no relationships including”. That’s why, when someone ask me why I support LGBT+ so much and have so many friends of them, I’m saying that I am a “Straight Ally”. Even though I know it’s not all the true (because I don’t identify myself like heterosexual at all), I just don’t fell I need to explain or “come out” like some others. I just live with it and I’m happy. To all demisexuals: Don’t ever think you are weird. You aren’t! You can fall in love. You can feel aroused. You can have fuctional relationship with no sex or sex including. You don’t need to have anyone to be happy. Just like have a family, child/children, husband/wife and be sometimes excited to be touched by your loved one(s). You can love or hate hugs. You can found someone attractive just INSIDE and be happy with it. Every demisexual it’s different. But still matters. Don’t ever think about to be ashemed by your sexuality. It’s your thing and NO ONE can’t say a shit about it.

Yeah, and I beat cancer when I was 17 by the way. And still not 100% healthy but living.

Thank for tagging and hope you found it interesting!

See you next time, maybe with my another Les Mis fanfiction!

#ask me #personal #me #sometimes it's good to open up #do it with the one you believe and trust #it's worth it #thank you all for reading

5 Cities That Are Most Beautiful To Visit In The Fall

Summer has ended and your tan has surely faded, but some may say that the best season of the year is now upon us.

Its the season of boots, scarves and sweatshirts. The season of colorful and crunchy leaves, and the season of pumpkin and apple flavored well everything. Its the season of mulled wine, hayrides and Halloween. Even your favorite TV series have started up again.

Fall is here, and its a season that must be embraced to the fullest before those pretty trees are nothing but bare branches and youve lost feeling in each and every appendage while shoveling your car out of 3 feet of snow.

Here are five of the best places to travel in the fall (warning: passportmay be required):

1. White Mountains, New Hampshire

If you havent seen the White Mountains in the fall, you havent experienced this beautiful season at its prime. While this region is great for outdoor activities year-round, it is inarguably the most stunningin the fall.

To experience the areas famous foliage, take a hike through the mountains, sign up for a canopy walk and zip-lining adventure tour or take in the views on a scenic helicopter ride. After such strenuous activities, a brewery tour or evening of warm drinks in one of the many cozy mountain restaurants is a good idea.

Lastly, if you didnt already know, New Hampshire isatax-free state. Might as well buy all of the cute fall boots you want, and maybe even get a jump on that Christmas shopping while youre at it.

2. Boston, Massachusetts

Theres nothing better than fall in Boston. The seasons colorful leaves put on quite the display next to the citys historical architecture and iconicbrownstone buildings.

Boston Common and the Public Gardens are looking their annual best, anda stroll along the Charles River Esplanade is as perfect as a picture.

Hop over to Harvard University and enjoy some leaf-peeping on their popular walking tour, or climb aboard a duck boat. Duck boatsare famous in Boston andanother great way to take in the city sights, from the main streets of Boston right into the Charles River.

Stop into one of the citys many pubs or bars for a fall cocktail and a football game, and youll feel right at home.

3. London, England

While London has a reputation centered around less than desirable weather, dont underestimate the beauty that can be found on the other side of the pond.

London is amazing in the fall, and a stroll through one of the citys world-class parks, like Hyde or Regents, will quickly provide evidence of this. In addition to the leaves and their changing colors, England is still impeccably lush this time of year, adding a bright touch of green to the burnt oranges, yellows and reds that youll find.

Big Ben never looked better than when framed by fall foliage along the Thames.

As if the scenery isnt enough, the countrys pub culture is a reason in itself to visit. Whether youre after an afternoon tea, beer, cider, whiskey or a hearty roast dinner, London has plenty to offer in the confines of a cozy pub to take the edge off the chilly weather.

4. Rome, Italy

Ciao, Roma! The summer season is gone, the tourists have passed and there is no better time to visit romantic Rome than at the peak of fall.

Imagine slow afternoons filled with delicious wine, the best pizza in the world and savory gelato, all against the breathtaking backdrop of Roman architecture highlighted by autumnal colors.

The weather is warm enough to explore the city by foot (or bike), so take in the changing of the leaves with a stroll through Villa Borghese or a ride along the Appian Way.

Romans love to dine late into the night, so be sure to indulge in an evening where youll take your pick of a cobblestoned street-sidetable, comfortably setbeneath a heat lamp and eat and drink to your hearts content.

5. Prague, Czech Republic

Youve seen Disney movies, complete with their castles and charming villages, right? (Im looking at you, Beauty and the Beast.) Well, Prague is exactly that.

Addnumerous public parks and fall foliage to this fairytale setting, and youll be hard-pressed to find a reason not to go.Did I mention the pop-up hot wine and sausage stands? Yeah, there are those, too. Theres also weekend markets where people drink cider and beer, and eat delicious food all day.

Its not too cold, not too hot, not too busy, everything is cheap and you basically feel like a princess (or prince) every day. Even more so when youre surrounded by beautiful leaves and youre frolicking around castles.

Winters coming, my friends, so you best book those plane tickets soon.
