"I'm saving money"

Cit. Me coming back home today with two mangas, a new bookshop card, a new book related to Hannibal Barca like it was the first time and a lot of coins to spend when reading Osora on webtoon. And compliments from people everytime I had a book in my hand lmao

(because 'it's rare to see youngsters read nowadays' bruh thanks but wtf, I'm like 22???? And ever heard of ao3, boomer?💀 /j cause obv gen X and boomers here can't know about AO3 and similar websites)

Thought of the day

Annibale (Hannibal) Barca's Roman Empire was Rome itself (not yet the empire, but still Rome). My Roman Empire...

(Half of Death Note's notebook is full of notes of Annibale's exhibition that took place in Piacenza some years ago)

Also, I may have an hyperfixation on Celts :D

For those who don't know:

Me at 11 (this really happened) X (11 years old too): What's your ideal man? *shows a model's photo* Me: *shows #17's pic (I still have it somewhere)* X: *looks for some moments* *gets shocked* But he's not real! Me: eh unfortunately Me if she asked me now: X: What's your ideal man? Me: Hannibal Barca would be great for a lavander marriage 🟠🟡⚪️💠🔵

About her

She was toxic, she hurt me a lot in years and never minded her own business so I'd try to shush her with an unexpected answer.

+ I am transmasc and aroacespec, I rarely fall in love / am attracted to someone else. Talking about men, I am generally in love at most with some fictional men. I don't exclude it totally buuuut it seems I'm not really meant to marry a irl man lol

About Hannibal Barca

Since I have many books and sources I'm studying on, I deduced that he was probably aroace (in any case I like to think so) and (in any case) he would have been too focused on Rome to care about me, so I could have done whatever I wanted.

Nel 218 a.C., vicino il Rodano, un reparto di 500 cavalieri Numidi inviato in avanscoperta da Annibale si scontra con 300 cavalieri Romani ⚔️

Vincono i Romani ma le perdite sono severe per entrambe le parti.

Annibale decide comunque di proseguire verso le Alpi 📜

Il console Publio Cornelio Scipione decide allora di tornare in Italia per affrontarlo 🏛️

[angelosand]

Nel 218 a.C., sul Rodano, i Volci ostacolano Annibale.

Quest'ultimo evita lo scontro frontale: manda Annone con un contingente ad attraversare il fiume più a monte e aggirare il nemico. 💡

I Volci sono così sconfitti e la marcia di Annibale verso le Alpi può continuare. 📜🏛️📚

Me everytime I say "no more books" and I come back home with another one:

(A sum up of the image: it talks about Svevo's "La Coscienza di Zeno" and 'the last cigarette'.)
