wow you're so good at drawing...

the second pic gives me an indescribable feeling of nostalgia for some reason...

[forever-1895]

Once you get this, you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly. Then you have to send this to ten of your favourite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool~) 🌈 🌈

oh no this is very hard! but i have to answer this to keep the positivity going:

1 - i like my ambitious quality (i'm very ambitious)

2 - i like that i don't hold grudges (okay, this is debatable, but MOST of the time)

3 - i am glad i love books - what a sad person i would be if i didnt love to read!

4 - i am willing to put lots of effort into the things i love

5 - i love learning new things

Nine People You'd Like To Get To Know Better

thank you to @tadpal for the tag

3 ships: uhhhhhh dang i dont really ship so much just have opinions on what canon is doing soo uh gwynplaine+dea [the blueprint the icon the everything] higgs+zeetha [jock4jock] and how could i forget grimaud+milady everyone should ship grimmilady [it came to me in a dream and its such a concept]

first ship: ive been a consumer of media from a very young age and also have memory issues so i cant say for certain its the first but wesley+buttercup is a good bet

last song: desperate measures by marianas trench [ive been osscilating between pop punk and club bangerz to keep my energy up while sewing]

currently reading: technically nothing rn but ive been stopped halfway through the dracula caper for a while and i need to get back to it, also ive been flipping through vdb since my mom's reading it now

last movie: the second bourboulon trois mousquetaires! it was not good lol, and according to the rest of the watch group understanding french would not have helped me. lowkey i still hope they make a third one bc im soooo curious what the plan for this setup is

currently craving: a fanciful fruited beverage

tagging: @mothqueton @irianeth @caecilian-king @counterwiddershins @amypihcs @fwipination @gato1523 @earthly-apples @pilferingapples is that nine?? i think thats nine

Thank you @pizza-hats-of-the-world-1882 for the tag!

3 ships: SO. Watsolmes, Trevillieu and i will include all three main musketeer ships, Athos/D'artagnan, D'artagnan/Aramis and Aramis/Porthos. I love those three too much and equally so

first ship: i believe my true first ship was Eragon/Arya, from the Inheritance cycle. I was young.

last song: Sabaton, 1916. Their cover is BEAUTIFUL

currently reading: a very nice biography of Caterina de' Medici

last movie: The Sign Of Four, Granada Television!

currently craving: nothing specific, actually

[tyrannosaurusnacks]

Thanks for the tag, @amypihcs

3 ships: Hmm 1) Holmes/Watson (obviously). 2) Jaime/Brienne from Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones 3) Aziraphael/Crowley from Good Omens

First ship: I have no idea, I guess the first one that I was truly not normal about was Jaime/Brienne and that was when I was already the ripe age of 18 although I did read Good Omens first

Last song: Romeo and Juliet by The Killers

Currently Reading: Finally finished Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett yesterday:)

Last movie: The Sign of Four together with Amy lol

Currently craving: Being finished with my uni work ;_;

3 ships: Holmes/Watson (🫠), Dorian Gray/Basil Hallward from The Picture of Dorian Gray (i also ship dorian/henry and dorian/alan) and finally Jane/Rochester from Jane Eyre

First ship: i don't remember? maybe barbie and ken from when i was 8 haha

Last song: I've been listening to a lot of phonk lately (helps me to grind studies); I would say Back2Back by STRLGHT

Currently reading: (non-fiction) Germany: The Third Reich 1933-45 (3rd edition)

Last movie: I don't watch movies often... The last one i even remember is Despicable Me 3 😆

Currently craving: Chocolate macaroons and a winning lottery ticket

THE ACCURACY

I was just wondering if I was the only one or not...

[momo-de-avis]

I fucking hate James Tissot’s paintings because in ALL OF THEM there is ALWAYS someone staring right at you, but it’s not always immediately visible. You just feel watched by this mf. Sometimes the little shit is right there at the centre, but others the bastard is just gazing from the distance, it is CREEPY, my guys

[momo-de-avis]

STOP STARING AT ME, THIS IS DISCONCERTING AS FUCK

[dragonslibraryuk]

unecessary and deeply upsetting

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

In fairness. We’re staring at them. Turnabout is fair play.

‘Polluted Water Popsicles’ (2017) by: Hung I-chen, Guo Yi-hui & Chen Yu-ti

Addressing the issue of water pollution, the artists collected samples from 100 locations across Taiwan, first freezing the liquids and then preserving their creations in resin.

[forever-1895]

Oh no, I thought some of them looked kinda tasty...

[angryducktimemachine]

I think Watson should bring Holmes to a lake. I think he'd enjoy it.

[ID: a digital drawing of Watson and Holmes, drawn over a photo of a lake. They both have their shoes off and trousers rolled up and are standing in the water. Holmes is bending downwards to watch a pair of fish. /End ID]

[forever-1895]

NOO I THOUGHT THEY WERE WEARING SOCKS! 😭

but i was wrong haha
