I have no idea how I ended up on a list with @canimallow​ . I....I am so beyond amazed. Thank you so much for whoever nominated King’s Indian Attack!

[dramionediscussion]

I get so sad when a fic has so many potentials (great plot line, characters, writing style) gets abandoned. I’m talking about the series for The King’s Indian Attack by Nectere :(

There are sooooo many fics that get abandoned! It’s heartbreaking!

[calyclockwork]

King’s Indian Attack is finished, and I just added chapter two of False Flag, AKA CoS. It’s not abandoned. I’m glad you enjoyed it, though!

Chapter 2 of False Flag on AO3

Chapter 2 on FFN

Y'all think being in a goth relationship means wearing white makeup together but Mary Shelley lost her virginity on her mother’s grave so maybe step it up.

[bandydear]

Mary Shelley carried her husband’s heart around and lived in a crypt after he died. No one will ever be as goth as Mary Shelley.

[zoreta]

She also wasn’t carrying around, like, a mummified heart. Her husband’s heart had calcified, meaning it had grown bone within itself and possibly around itself, and it is this heart of bone which she carried. When she was young she carried it wrapped in a silk pouch, and when older it was kept in her desk, wrapped in a page from his poem Adonais. Adonais was one of his last poems, in which a deceased poet’s subjects (nature, Spring, the stars) mourn him, and long to join him in death. Then the narrator tells them do not mourn, for he has gone beyond where the minds and emotions of humans matter, to the Natural Spirit that is the source of all beauty.

Of his poems, it is this which she wrapped his heart in. There is none. more. goth.

[island-delver-go]

It’s sad to realize that peak goth was hit so long ago

[mslorelei]

Yes, but it’s wonderful that next year’s Genius series (on the National Geographic network) will be all about Mary Shelley. They’ve already done Einstein and Picasso, and these shows are excellent – and honest.

[gothiccharmschool]

If I ever fail to reblog these facts about Mary Shelley, true queen of the goths, assume I am stuck in my crypt and someone needs to come help me get out.

MARY SHELLEY. NONE MORE GOTH.

GOTH QUEEN GOTH QUEEN GOTH QUEEN

Random question that none of my friends will answer seriously. (Okay, only ONE answered & his answer was "James Woods.") If you (and anyone who reblogs this) were to rewrite How The Grinch Stole Christmas in a Lovecraftian style, minus the vile and nasty racism, which of H.P. Eldritch Horrors would you replace the Grinch (or Whos if you prefer) with and why?

Every sailor in Innsmouth liked Christmas a lot,But the Deep Ones who lived in the shipwrecks DID NOT!They just hated Christmas!  The whole Christmas season!Now, please don’t ask why. No one quite knows the reason.It could be that Dagon said it was too dry.It could be they thought that reindeers shouldn’t fly.But I think that the most likely reason we’ll getMay have been that it’s hard to light lights where it’s wet…

Just remember, these are elected officials and our tax dollars are being used for this.

[commandtower-solring-go-deactiv]

This is what its like serving people. People want straight answers to questions they fundamentally don’t understand. They don’t even understand the language you use. There is a very definite answer to what ‘wifi’ is, but a lot of oldies have their own understanding which is seperate from fact, but they believe to be fact. So when you try to explain it to them it gets to a point where they not only don’t understand it, but they don’t want to understand it. 

These people here, its not that they don’t understand the tech at hand. Its that they simply don’t want to. And so they never will.

Painkiller Weirdness

When you’re high on painkillers (legally) and watch DCU crossovers...

And then start writing a Supergirl/Arrow fic where Kara is raised by Blue Beetle and Booster Gold as her superhero gay dads...

[bellamynochillblake]

[im-reddie]

@princess-starr Remember our old ladies of fandom idea?

[iwritefanficnotprophecies]

Is this a mood or what

[calyclockwork]

If I reblog this, will it summon me a girlfriend willing to do this with me?

[calyclockwork]

That’s right- I may still be a squirt, but I’ve gotta keep forging ahead so that my many dreams can come true

Pink sugar, warm vanilla and pure white sandalwood.

[princess-starr]

Actual conversation:

@calyclockwork: I found a pink sugar note!

Me: YOU RANG.

[calyclockwork]

Technically it was:

Me: I am such a nerd

@princess-starr : And bears shit in the woods

Me: Small lady soap

You: ...go on and is there a wicked lady version

3 hours later and we’re throwing ideas from everyone from V to Sailor Astarte (who is awesome and fucking fight me.)

Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish followers!

Garnet pomegranate, red plum, black fig drizzled with honey, and a blend of Romani spices blown in on ancient winds.

Leverage | Relationships | Eliot & Parker

Eliot: They would’ve kept trying and they would’ve froze to death right next to him, especially Hardison. So it was a good thing it was us. The two of us, we do things they can’t. Won’t. Parker: Does that make us bad? Eliot: It makes us… us. Now, you can take that as a gift, or you can take it as a curse. And that’s up to you.

[phoebedynevors]

The t w o of us, we do things they can’t. Won’t. That make us bad? That makes us…. us.
