do you have any coffee drinks that you can't live with out? i am getting sick of my usual order and i want to try something new.

@limelightlowden

[limelightlowden]

Wouldnae survive without an iced coffee most days, honestly. But I dinnae go for anything too fancy very often. If I want a treat, it'll be a strawberries and cream frappuccino, that's a game changer. The sort that ye know ye gotta be careful no to have too much of. What's yer usual right now?

[dakotajchnson]

So that's how it is? Sick of my face but Taylor gets a free pass. I'll be sure to let Sersh know exactly where your loyalties lie. And before I forget, happy birthday, pal. I hope you've had the best day, been thoroughly spoiled, and received at least a fraction of the love you put out into the world. You're one of the good ones. Look at me being gross.

[limelightlowden]

Aye, sorry, pal, that's just how it is. Ye saying ye no get sick of me face, too? Look me in the eye and say it. Sersh already knows where me loyalties lie, and she's a solid number 2 behind Roen. Thank ye, Sersh definitely treated me, as she always does. Did alright, ending up with somebody so caring and thoughtful. Stop being nice to me, think I was just sick in me mouth.

if you book the james bond role i will support you every step of the way, mate. although i won't be able to avoid feeling a bit disappointed. it's the role of a lifetime and fans are speculating like crazy. i can't wait for the reveal. [ @limelightlowden ]

[limelightlowden]

Honestly, am happy nae matter who the next Bond is, it'll just be nice to have new movie to look forward to, feels like we've had hardly any in decades. If me wife plays a villain opposite yer Bond, definitely coming to crash the set frequently.

[scoirse]

For your birthday baby....

What’s the most ridiculous thing that has ever made you jealous? - 400

Genuinely cannae think of anything. I just dinnae get jealous. Ask me wife. She could make oot with somebody in front of me, and I'd just find it hot. @scoirse

[limelightlowden]

What’s the most Scottish thing about you that you don’t even realize is Scottish anymore? - 710

If I still lived in Scotland all the time, I would be oblivious to all the Scottish shite I do, but when ye live in places like London, or around non-Scottish folk, they make ye more aware of it. I suppose the main thing is how much I talk Scots, even when am trying to tone it down. Sometimes I'll come oot with a phrase and get a look like I've spoken gibberish. Naw, pal, ye just dinnae ken what am saying. If ye think am gonnae talk the King's English all the time, yer aff yer heid.

[limelightlowden]

What’s a completely random hill you would die on, even if everyone else thinks you’re being ridiculous? - 818

The sound of kissing is fucking awful. I like doing it, I like watching it, but the noise of it is just a horse munching on some peanut butter. No sexy at all.

#10 - If you could, what's something you'd tell your younger self?

Always think ye are right. Ye usually are, so it's better ye dinnae constantly doubt yerself.

[limelightlowden]

(22) WHAT WOULD MAKE LIFE PERFECT FOR YOU RIGHT NOW?

Cannae imagine it getting much better than being with me gals in Italy. Maybe Sersh giving me some love bites for good measure. @scoirse

[limelightlowden]

37 - what's your biggest fear as a parent?

That I'll unintentionally do something that'll really fuck up Roen in the long run. Like, I'll say or do the wrong thing, and it changes her whole perspective on the world, in a bad way, or that makes her look negatively at me for the rest of her life. I know that it's sorta hard to do that if I'm trying to be loving and caring and supportive, but it's always lurking in the back of me mind that if I put a foot wrong, I'll fuck things up for her forever.

And that she'll have an Irish accent. I'll allow an English one, but no an Irish one.

[limelightlowden]

97: do you think it's possible to be friends with an ex?

I think so. Depends on a few factors - why ye broke up, if ye have kids, how long ye were together and all that. My previous partner, I stayed friends with her for a while, we only lost touch slowly because we had different mates and didnae have a lot in common anymore, not because we dated. If me and Sersh somehow split up one day, in some alternate reality, I'd want to stay mates with her. Even if the spark of the relationship wasnae there anymore, she's still me best mate and always will be. Plus we've got a kid together now, and there's nae chance am leaving Roen's life, so Sersh is stuck with me whether she likes it or no.

[limelightlowden]

97: what would you do if your friends didn't like your partner?

Date Saoirse Ronan, because everybody fucking loves her. If I dated somebody else and me friends didnae like them, though, I'd hear them oot about why they dinnae like them. Wouldnae break up with somebody just over that, but my mates really matter to me and if they feel like somebody's nae good for me, they're probably right.

[limelightlowden]

Favorite movie you acted in and why? #5150

Already spoke about me favourite movies I've worked on, but I'll go a different route for this one. From an acting standpoint, the most challenging was probably Calibre. It was the deepest and darkest I'd ever gone at that point, and because it was a very reality-based story, it was harder to detach from the emotions ye feel in a scene. It was tough work, but so rewarding, and I think I did an alright job in it. I also got to film it in Scotland, with a mostly Scottish cast and crew, and I always love getting to dae that. Definitely a film of mine I always recommend to folks.

[tcylorkitsch]

That is true, don't know how much competition that draw out in theme. How do the italians find it? Like to be fair and all you are the worst accents for me to understand, and I falsley and blindly assume you cant understand each other

[limelightlowden]

Oh, I gotta tone it down for the Italians a lot of the time. I've gotta tone it down for English folk when am in London, so ye know. Ye only get the full brunt of me natural accent if I like ye.

[scoirse]

I would love to hear it. You are very much. See i always thought I was good at remembering every little detail someone says but then you came along and get every last thought. Mhmm no you wont I see it now there will be some excuse and my child be using curse words first. Okay that is ridiculous of you.

[limelightlowden]

I put the rest of the world to shame, what can I say. Oh yer child, eh? Well, if she's yer child, she'll definitely be swearing in a wee Celt accent. When have I been anything other than ridiculous, eh? Thought ye were used to it by now.

[josephaquinn]

I know, I know. Charlie's on a whole other level, though. He played the part so well, even if the hardcore Tolkien purists would probably disagree, but the show itself is just so ridiculously cool. I actually had Ian McKellen on the set of Avengers: Doomsday, but I was way too shy to go up to him and start asking questions about all of that… which honestly probably means it's not a good idea for you to introduce me to anyone because I'll immediately turn into a nervous wreck the second they look at me. Especially if it's McKellen or Mortensen. That's so sweet, though. You're not wrong, she genuinely could play absolutely anything.

[limelightlowden]

There's hardcore purist fans of most book series, but ye know what? If they dinnae like it, they can go oot and make it themselves, but they willnae. Most of the folk behind the show are huge fans, they're no doing it for a cash grab or anything. Did ye? Oh, he's very cool. Only met him in passing before, but always a good time. She really could, and she should be allowed to. Am no gonnae stop her.

[limelightlowden]

982: is there anything you want to get off your chest?

Aye, all this hair. The chest hair is getting oot of control. In all seriousness, naw. Am an open book. Almost to a fault.
