OK don’t freak out or anything but Rose Mary’s baby has Magpies on the nursery wall flying away from a fucking apple tree?

Whom do we associate with magpies?

And whom do we associate with apples?

And what else do we associate with Moriarty?

And what do we say about coincidence?

Something to cry about:

In these scenes, Sherlock’s watching John smile for what he thinks will be the last time.

And Sherlock’s father is talking about his amazing wife.

A list of pro tips to Mofftiss if they don’t want Johnlock to be canon

make it clear from the first episode that they are both straight

tell martin freeman to stop licking his lips and checking out ben every five seconds

basically any of martin’s acting choices lbr

and don’t forget ben’s acting

stop having him make that handjob pose in promo shots

burn the unaired pilot, every single second of it is radioactively incriminating

don’t have a beautiful shot of them holding hands while running together, the two of them against the rest of the world

don’t have the groom and best man wear the same suits like with a gay wedding

don’t center the groom and best man in the center of the reception

major sholto ex-commander

the entirety of the best man speech

show the actual straight wedding

show anything at all related to affection between John and Mary

literally everything in the stag night

including filming in a gay nightclub

with topless men surrounding sherlock

while they both drink out of phalic-shaped test tubes

maybe dumping john’s hair in hair product wasn’t the best idea

try not writing mary as a villain who almost murderers the title character

or, ya know, find any of 100+ ways to write her as a complicated but still loving character

basically don’t put sherlock and john in the same shot together. it is a scientific law that once you put those two in the same breathing space they will exude gay vibes

the bi-coloured background lighting behind john was a bit much

rainbows flying around sherlock’s head??

while showing off da vinci’s perfect man with john’s head pasted on

moustache burn

“i like my doctors clean-shaven”

military kink!!

i haven’t even touched TAB

yeah, probably shouldn’t have made TAB

honestly wtf did you expect after 90 minutes of watching a gay coke dream with multiple dick jokes and softé sherlock and smoking hot badass victorian john 

oh god i forgot about the flashlight-in-the-mouth

and entire-box-of-cigarettes-in-mouth

and tyre lever 

i’m not gonna touch The Fall, it was gorgeous writing and also extremely sad and gay

john. just… john in general. 

everything sherlock has ever done.

“i’m there if you want it”

“he’s always like that” “he does all that anyway”

1895

Honestly Mofftiss… if you are trying to tell a story about two platonic friends you are failing miserably. Join our side and have some fun admitting to one of the greatest love stories of all time, that deserves being proud of and shouting from the rooftops!

Underrated mythological creatures in YA books

I have always loved mythological creatures, but I think too many YA paranormal books focus on four creatures: vampires, werewolves, angels and fairies.

Hey guys. ianbrunner is hosting a Animorphs read along. If you are interested these are the guidlines:

My plan is to use the tag TFRA short for The Fanadalite Read Along. Starting November 28th, the Saturday after Thanksgiving we can all post under that tag anything we find interesting or want to discuss from book 1, The Invasion. After that I think a good time period for everyone to read the books is 4 days. After 4 days we can start posting about book 2 and so on. The book aren’t long so it should’t be too difficult. I hope you all participate and if you have any suggestions please message me! 

[bibliophilicdragonssquad]

*re-reads my own story*: Damn this is some good shit

*gets to the part where I stopped writing*: WTF WHERE'S THE REST OF IT HOW DO I GET MORE

Brain: You're the author, if you want more you have to write it

Me: *flips tables*

If you have goodreads please share your name??

[bibliophilicdragonssquad]

Hi!

I’m Maria ( @relentlessreading / @buriedwithbooks / @wizardryofwords ), I’m 16 years old, and I’m Polish, but have lived in Ireland for the past ten years. I’m in my last year of secondary school and, if all goes well, I’ll start university next year. I learned to read at the age of four, and ever since it’s been my main ((only)) hobby; I read mostly in Polish, but sometimes in English too. I also love poetry, both reading and writing it ^-^
