For any Tudor history enthusiasts....and especially fans of the lore behind Elizabeth I and her relationship with Robert Dudley!

I made a Spotify playlist about their complicated love and relationship over the many decades they knew each other.

Let me know what you think of it and if you have any playlists about the Tudors that you'd like me to listen to or check out <333

BOOKS WE LOVED IN MIDDLE SCHOOL : The Hunger Games

What must it be like, I wonder, to live in a world where food appears at the press of a button? How would I spend the hours I now commit to combing the woods for sustenance if it were so easy to come by? What do they do all day, these people in the Capitol, besides decorating their bodies and waiting around for a new shipment of tributes to rill in and die for their entertainment? (insp.)

Diana Wynne Jones: magic! Handsome, charming enchanter! Funny characters! Engaging stories! Phenomenal world building!

Also DWJ: Christopher killed himself seven times as a child 🙃

[natequarter]

it's vital when reading chrestomanci to read a charmed life before the lives of christopher chant otherwise how will you experience the full sledgehammer to the face of what christopher and millie were like as kids

[natequarter]

christopher chant literally the guy of all time. he has so many dressing gowns. he was involved in a criminal empire at the age of like ten. his friends include a double-crossing smuggler with no soul, the living incarnation of a god, and a kid who accidentally killed him in a game of cricket. he's the most powerful man in the world. he's infuriatingly vague. he's a genius. he can't do magic with silver and never thought to just buy stainless steel cutlery. he calls himself chrestomanci because he wants to be the centre of attention. he gets annoyed whenever people summon him despite insisting on being called chrestomanci. and most importantly he's bisexual

I’ve had experiences of witches. Each one has their own style. It’s like the way everyone’s writing is different.

im gonna be bold and say something that’s wrong as hell

Annabeth Chase spent her formative years in the South. You know what’s extremely popular in the south? Going by your first and middle name as one name.

Annabeth Chase is actually Anna Beth Chase and she spent too long being called Annabeth that it stuck.

thank you

[moved-to-ofswordsandpens]

been researching the name Annabeth and I found out its shorthand/nickname for Anna Elizabeth so if we’re building off this theory

Annabeth Chase is actually Anna Elizabeth Chase 

no I do not take criticism

And now I’m going to destroy you Porphyrion, and feed you to your own wolves.

I’m the son of Jupiter, I’m a child of Rome, consul to demigods, praetor of the First Legion. I slew the Trojan sea monster, I toppled the black throne of Kronos, and destroyed Titan Krios with my own hand.

“You don’t understand - here are things worth dying for!”

[jackkdaniels]

So at the end of Prisoner of Azkaban, Sirius says to Hermione, “You really are the brightest witch of your age,” with an emphasis on the “are,” implying that someone previously had told him that Hermione was super fucking smart and he was just then affirming it

But like, who told him that? He didn’t really get a chance to talk to Harry or Ron or Lupin between “I didn’t kill your parents” and “oh shit werewolf” and “I’m about to get the dementor’s kiss.”

So I like to think that it was Crookshanks who told him, coz Crookshanks and Padfoot were friends, right? I can imagine Crookshanks just going on and on about Hermione, like “My human is the best human, she’s so smart and lovely and perfect, just wait till you meet her, I love her so much”
