Hiatus Notice

This year has been completely crazy, as everyone knows, and it just happens to have coincided with one of the most chaotic times in my university career so far. I still love all my fandoms with my whole heart, but for the time being, I’ve decided to take a step back so I can focus on getting through it all. Thank you so much for understanding, and then - this is goodbye, until further notice.

- Lynn

GOODBYE to the FINAL MISSION TEAM in AGENTS OF SHIELD

[sukkaweek]

Sukka Week 2020 will take place August 30th – September 5th with the following prompts:

August 30th - Post Canon

August 31st - Road Trip

September 1st - Missing Moment from Canon or Soulmates

September 2nd - Marry Me

September 3rd - Protective or Dancing (Dance with Me)

September 4th - I Got Your Back

September 5th - Letters (Sukka Uses Hawky)

There was a three-way tie for the seventh prompt so there are a total of nine prompts for Sukka Week 2020 instead of seven.

Sukka Week 2020 Guidelines:

Tag entries with both Sukka Week and Sukka Week 2020

Do not post submissions early. Late submissions are welcome

No hating on or bashing any of the work submitted

Only Sukka entries (romantic or platonic). Fanworks that mainly focus on other ships will not be reblogged

Sukka Week is not a competition, so HAVE FUN 😊 Hopefully we will have lots of new Sukka content that we can enjoy as a fandom 😊

[uncawanwo]

I will always be with you.

[designmantic]

Unless you do, you’ll never know.

Everything is possible.

[onceuponmystory]

Apparently it's not safe to leave exam pads lying around in my house. Because if she finds them, my sister will... draw dragons on them!!

Time to Vote for Sukka Week Dates!!!

Please vote for which dates you would like Sukka Week to take place!!! This poll is open until July 13th so make sure to vote before then. I have added the link in the notes because this post doesn’t appear in the tags otherwise.

[meh-factory]

If you get this, answer with 3 random facts about yourself and send it to the last 7 blogs in your notifications, anonymously or not! Let's get to know the person behind the blog!💕

I want to be a pastry chef

I keep my spare change in a pink boston terrier (he also has a tie and sunglasses) cookie jar

I once got hit by a car while listening to Chasing Cars

[grangermonarque]

Thank you for the tag, @friskywiggles !! You’re also a cutie 🥺

I love anything aesthetic and vintage!

My favorite flowers are sunflowers and texan bluebonnets! (back in a really beautiful garden when I was at Houston I think, some of my relatives live there)

I keep pictures of my friends (also internet friends) as a charm of reminding myself of all the advice they told me during on my rough times.

Tagging: @thejeremyfitzgerald @x-martina-krane @amathal @fizzukiee @fallen-topaz @arachegeek @ohnoivemadeamistake have fun!

[ohnoivemadeamistake]

I was summoned, henceforth I feel like I’m supposed to do this too:

I’m very bad when it comes to usernames, because when I pick a name that I feel is unique, someone’s already taken it qwq

It’s really hard for me to get to sleep, because my mind keeps running and then I’m no longer sleepy

Pastel colors/flannel shirts are my strawberry jam

And now for the summoning:

My favourite moment in a fanfic is this famous internal dialogue:

Lily: Oh!

Lily: Oh!

[blitheringmcgonagall]

[onceuponmystory]

Me: So Dad, why is my sister's name Paris?
