hi bestie!!!! ready 2 be destroyed by Harry mirror of erised but here I am asking about it anyway!!!!! 🫶🏽

yeah ngl part of the reason this stays in the vault is uh. pain

ask about my WIPs!

[kay-elle-cee]

@unknowableroom & @isahorcrux I have good news for you! Nicknames is a WIP I'm aiming to get out this week! I have several small ideas and I'm trying to use the @jilymicrofics prompts to actually make them into something!

This is a little snippet of Jily's wedding day 🥰 Snippet below the cut.

Ask me about my WIPs!

“Thought you could sneak away at your own bloody wedding?”

The guilty parties break apart at the sound of Sirius’ voice, varying degrees of exasperation on each of their faces. James jerks his chin towards the door. “Padfoot, bugger off. I'm snogging my wife.”

OMG HOW FUN!!!!!

💀 ✍️ 🔬 for the tlt ask please!!!!

(be happy I didn’t ask for 💙 tbh)

thanks sudha!!! 💕 and yh 💙 would just be. all of them. multiple times 😭

💀 Fav Ht9 quote?

also so many..... also the entire last act, but i'm gonna pick this one bc my entire day is derailed every time i think of it:

Always your sword, my umbral sovereign; in life, in death, in anything beyond life or death that they want to throw at thee and me. I died knowing you’d hate me for dying; but Nonagesimus, you hating me always meant more than anyone else in this hot and stupid universe loving me. At least I’d had your full attention.

(honorable mention to the "i am a nonsense." monologue bc it's burned into my brain and i just want to give harrow a hug okay 😭)

WAIT ALSO i can't let this question go by without

It had bewildered her, back at Canaan House, how the whole of her always seemed to come back to Gideon. For one brief and beautiful space of time, she had welcomed it: that microcosm of eternity between forgiveness and the slow, uncomprehending agony of the fall. Gideon rolling up her shirt sleeves. Gideon dappled in shadow, breaking promises. One idiot with a sword and an asymmetrical smile had proved to be Harrow’s end: her apocalypse swifter than the death of the Emperor and the sun with him.

✍️ Of the supporting characters, who's POV would you be most interested in reading?

this is such a good one!! there's so many but i'll go with camilla or palamedes; they're there for so much of the story & i'd LOVE to get their perspective on things

🔬 Who is your fav lyctor and why?

i'm so invested in all the OG lyctor's stories, i've said this to you before but my kingdom for a prequel!! anastasia figuring out true lyctorhood and dying for it, cassiopeia giving the sixth house instructions to desert hundreds of years in advance, cyth - just all of cyth!! - g1deon falling for wake when he's known to not fall for anyone else & thinking he's going mad with the gaps in his memory, augustine and mercymorn's WHOLE thing, there's just SO much there! my answer as i started typing this was going to be pyrrha, but i now realise she's. not actually a lyctor hahaha, so i'm going to go with cassiopeia! i need to dissect her brain

hey friend can you plz tell us about sea change 🫶🏽

@bookeatingbean ok in point of fact sea change has nothing to do with... the sea... it's (every single time i type this i am positively robbed of breath by how amazing and insane it is that someone sent me this prompt) the pokemon regency au LMAO. i initially titled it sea change just as a placeholder (its a lily-summers-in-bath story) and that is subject to change. NOW if i were, say, not an idiot, i might have a snippet, but since i am, let's say, an idiot, this is also one where i...

wrote straight into ao3 and didn't save the draft

ask me about my wips

sudha, I am so sorry you send this to me MONTHS AGO and I pocketed it to think of a good answer because I am not much of a movie aficionado, but I STILL do not have one...

so here are the 5 movies that I have watched the most times in my life, I think, with no commentary on why: The Pink Panther, The Parent Trap, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Mean Girls, The Sound of Music

Nine books I’m excited to read in 2024!

thanks for tagging me, @unknowableroom 😘 it's actually quite difficult for me to plan what i'm going to read in a year - but these books released fairly recently are on my to-read list, hopefully i manage to read some of them, or at least in-between reading classics and a bunch of non-fiction.

hiiii! ‘fate’ for the theogony word game ♥️

hey bestie! ok this one is very galaxy brained so I'm trying to find its least significant/telling appearance.....u know me way too well apparently

Pausanias claps James on the back. “The Fates often weave strange tapestries, young one. Do not dwell on the matter for too long.”

send me a word and I'll tell you if it's in theogony chapter 8!

[kay-elle-cee]

hi Kelsey!!!! 5, 12, and 30 for the music ask game please! 💞

Ooh, hi Sudha! Thank you for these!

5. A song that needs to be played LOUD

Weightless by All Time Low cranked at like max volume is one of my top cheer-me-up-when-I'm-down songs.

12. A song from your preteen years

I answered with a Jesse McCartney song here, but will also drop Behind These Hazel Eyes from Miss Kelly Clarkson herself because this was a FORMATIVE ALBUM for me.

30. A song that reminds you of yourself

Ahhh not self reflection! Ummmm I'm probably gonna have to go with a Paramore song so I'm going with Last Hope!

Thank you so much!
