Bro my special interests really be fun facts. Like wtf.
well shit i guess i’ll have to buy some doggos for my birthday as well
so many of my character crushes fit that type holy shit
not all of them??? because i can list a bunch of characters that don’t match that exactly??? but honestly all of them fit at least a few of those bullet points
like: go to all my characters that i either RP or Love Immensely and you can basically use it as a checklist -- usually if a character has at least two or three of the following:
Older guy
Scruffy
Tragic as fuck backstory
Acts like an obnoxious asshat / is very sarcastic and snarky
Fighty as hell
Is secretly (or not so secretly) tired and sad and/or angry
Dad Potential / Is a Dad
LOTS OF SYMBOLISM TO PLAY WITH
Issues galore (I tend to drift towards boys with regret/guilt/self-directed bad feelings)
Is Smart
Tricksters!!!!
Probably at the very least an anti-hero, also possibly villain
Very sympathetic / Possibility for a redemption arc (even if it’s in fanworks)
They go on my List of Favorites
(there’s a whole other list for girl characters but i haven’t quite figured that one out yet)
¡Buenos días! I was tagged by @silmarilthief.
Rules: Answer the questions in a new post and tag 20 blogs you would like to get to know better.
A - Age: 22
B - Birthplace: The Bronx, New York
C - Current Time: 9:27 am
D - Drink You Last Had: Water
E - Easiest Person To Talk To: My boyfriend, of course
F - Favourite Song: Dat by Pluto Shervington ranks high on my favourite songs overall, but at present I have been listening to One Headlight by The Wallflowers nearly all day for several days.
G - Grossest Memory: I'd fallen on the playground in primary school just as we were called back into the building for class. I’d gotten sand in my mouth. For some reason I believed it would be rude to spit it out; I didn’t want anyone to see me do that. So I held it in my mouth as I lined up with the other students. I didn’t know what to do. It tasted so bad. My solution? ... Eat it. As we marched back into the building single-file, I silently suffered my self-imposed punishment of chewing kernels of tough, artificial sand. The taste was unbearable, absolutely awful, but I persevered until the deed was done. Then I got some water from the water fountain. That day I was a champion of politeness.
H - Horror Yes or Horror No: HORROR HELL YES
I - In Love?: I’ve been in love for six years.
J - Jealous of People?: I am not jealous of people, but I am very envious of others.
K - Killed Someone?: I’m ashamed to admit: Yes. It was an accident. Last year my boyfriend and I were playing around and I... I crushed his whole team in Pokemon. Press F to pay respects
L - Love At First Sight Or Should I Walk By Again: Love at first sight happened to me. I believe it.
M - Middle Name: I can’t share this, it’s part of my dead name. I haven’t chosen a new one. What I can say is that it was French (or French-inspired) and could be hyphenated.
N - Number of Siblings: One
O - One Wish: My biggest wish is to start testosterone.
P - Person You Called Last: My boyfriend. He’s in Japan so we’ve been calling and FaceTiming a lot.
Q - Question You Are Always Asked: "What are you mixed with?”
R - Reason to Smile: My dog. Seeing my boyfriend on FaceTime in the morning. The smell of new books. Thranduil. Hot fries. Being alive.
S - Song You Sang Last: The... The jingle from the old Glade plug-in commercials LMAO.
T - Time You Woke Up: 7:39 am
U - Underwear Colour: Yellow
V - Vacation Destination: I’d love to visit Israel one day.
W - Worst Habit: I pick at my lips and my skin.
X - X-rays: I’ve had many dental x-rays through the years--I had braces when I was younger, along with impacted wisdom teeth that had to be removed. I have scoliosis as well so there are countless x-rays of my twisted back out there on file.
Y - Your favourite food: Curry goat! But now that I’m pescetarian... it’s a toss up between alfredo+spinach and cheddar broccoli soup.
Z - Zodiac Sign: Aries
Tagged: This is a new blog for me so I don’t have that many people to tag. How about @frejasfeathers, @plantboyaiden, and @hippopotatoe? @vampvre and @wintermoons are my cheat tags.
I am a huge hxh and video game nerd shit and also a plant mam ´ v`
I swear I'm a cool person please wait don't go
I also asked if there was one Deep Thought he’d never been able to make work — the Great White Whale of Deep Thoughts. He told me one that he said only ever made him and Marta laugh. “See the fox running through the snow. Then he’s attacked by his mortal enemy: the fox. Fox on fox. Man, what a sight.” Then he and Marta both cracked up.

I dream about the day tumblr creates a feature that allows you to search more than one tag at the same time, so that instead of getting a bunch of pictures of people smiling and posting weird shit about their dental hygiene, I can actually find gifs and pictures by searching "Teeth" and "Film" or something like that.
That would be really helpful.
