12,13,16,25,28,29,30 Margo/sergei!!!! Apologies if you alr got some of these
Oh wow that is quite a list! For the OTP Meme!
12. Who initiates kisses?
I can't decide, so the answer is that it's pretty equal. But all things considered, probably Sergei.
13. Who reaches for the other’s hand first?
Answered here.
16. Who wants to stay in bed just a little longer?
I think on the days where schedules permit...definitely Margo. She is canonically kind of a night owl and not much of a morning person.
25. Who needs more assurance?
I think it's less about more or less, and more that they have different fears. Margo's nightmares are that Sergei dies. Sergei's nightmares are that Margo leaves him. They aren't people who are particularly reassurance-seeking, but they have their codependencies for sure.
28. What do they do when they’re away from each other?
They talk on the phone, of course. Every night.
29. one headcanon about this OTP that breaks your heart
Not a headcanon, really, just...it was always going to end the way it did.
30. one headcanon about this OTP that mends it
But that's okay. A well-crafted tragedy that honors the characters and their motivations alongside the tropes is better than a happy ending that doesn't.
And the framework that FAM establishes--an AU with a great deal of space to play--means that it asks us to wonder what would happen if one thing went differently. And who knows, in all those other universes, maybe we tweak the genre, someone makes a different choice. They get to live or be together. And that is fun.
Plus they dance in their socks in their living room.
For the 'aging' ask meme: 5, 14, 23, thankooo!
5: what's your favourite piece of furniture and where did you get it?
Oooooh, that's such a good question...I think it's gotta be our couch. It's 10 years old, we got it at Jordan's (it's a Massachusetts thing) & it's wine-red, a sectional, and soooooo comfy. *slaps the side of the couch* This baby can fit SOOOO many friends on it.
14: what's a hobby you'd like to get into?
Knitting or crocheting. I HAVE tried before (my grandmother attempted to teach me once before realizing that it would be really annoying because I'm left-handed and giving up immediately) but I've always felt intimidated by it. But gosh, it looks nice. And useful!
23: what's the coolest place you've visited?
OH MAN, I have to CHOOSE? First thing that came to mind was Thailand - THAILAND!! I've been there! TWICE! That was fucking amazing. But so was ICELAND. And Venice!! And Riga!! And St. Petersburg!!!! I saw Pushkin's old school room ffs!! So yeah, it's hard to choose, but Thailand - especially Doi Inthanon - was absolutely stunning.

6 non-selfie images from 2025. thank you for the tag @missyourflight 💜 hey, pocketfriends? tag - you're it!
Meme!
Thank you for tagging me bae @therukurals!
Last song: The Beatles’ “We Can Work It Out.” I was in my nostalgia era on my Friday morning commute.
Favorite color: GREEN. Sage! Olive! Emerald! Parrot! Forest! Viridian! (I could start a YA series with these names….)
Last book: I’m just finishing Ahmet Altan’s “Like A Sword Wound.”
Last movie: I watched Achal Mishra’s portrait-interview of the writer Vinod Kumar Shukla and largely loved it. It’s called “Chaar Phool Hain aur Duniya Hain.”
Last tv show: The cringe “The Trauma Code,” alleviated only by its brevity and the bizarre power of Ju Ji-hoon (and Kim Sun-young) (I ship them). I’m so tired of watching webtoon dramas -- pace Kang Full -- but we’ve been in a real writer drought after the mini-explosion of 2022 when all the freaks holed up during COVID dropped their shows together. Anyway Lee Soo-yeon, writer of "Life," let this be a punishment to you.
Sweet/savory/spicy: Savoury forever.
Last thing I searched online: I can’t tell you because I’ve turned off the search history function on all my browsers and I actually can’t remember the last thing I looked up — maybe standing desks?
Current obsession: Always whatever my boos @elderflowergin and @drivingsideways are cooking up.
Looking forward to: Making pasta for dinner tonight; the WTBC writer returning to drama with the Tangerines show (are writers back? In drama???); finishing the next installment of my private fic that only I and two others are reading; taking my first HSK exam later this year!
Tagging my beautiful friends @sadviper @kselavie @nubreed73 @blau-s and sending love.
OC Vibes Game!
I was tagged by @redheadsramblings and since it took so long to get the PSN app working to get these pictures you're getting Rook Ingellvar and Ward Mercar!
The rules: Post a picture of your OC and then 4 random (or whatever number you'd like) photos with no explanation that conveys their vibe.
Rook
Ward
tagging... @andthekitchensinkao3 @pwney @bankabb if they're up for it!
