Introducing....History Buff!Reader x Klaus Mikaelson
History Buff!Reader who has to convince Klaus he isn't just another relic in their collection. They're fascinated by him, by the time he's lived through, but they love him, not the stories he can tell. Thought they're very interested in those too.
History Buff!Reader who asks Klaus if certain things from their books are true. He's lived through so much time and met so many people, he has so many stories to tell and they listen to each and every one.
History Buff!Reader who loves when Klaus reads to them. They love reading, but there's something different about it when Klaus says each word aloud. They hold more gravity when they fall from his lips, they're simply more.
History Buff!Reader who falls asleep to Klaus' stories. They never want to, they wake up kicking themselves because they really wanted to hear that one, but his voice is so soothing. It lulls them into a soft, comfortable place that sends them right to sleep. Klaus doesn't complain, he gets to hold them in his arms the entire time so in his book, he's the one benefiting.
History Buff!Reader who finds pressed roses in their favourite books. Klaus is always careful, he dries each flower perfectly, pressing them in a separate, meaningless book first to make sure there's absolutely no residue left on them before placing them in the right books, the ones he knows they'll read next.
History Buff!Reader who adores the extravagant parties and balls Klaus throws. For an evening, it feels like they've stepped back into the times they read about. All dressed up, with the most eligible suitor in the entire room.
I hope you like this anon, it's such a cute pairing!!
When your subject matter has a slightest connection to your special interest so you get to pour a lifetime of research into it :D
The world will be forever indebted to the brave men who fought and altered the course of History. May they never be forgotten. 🙏

as an anarchist I don't like the USSR (big shocker I know) cuz all of the authoritarianism, imperialism, and state capitalism
but for some reason I feel the need to defend it when some liberals regurgitates straight up historical revisionism or just lies
"No the ussr wasn't a underdeveloped country it was quite ahead of its time in science and infrastructure"
"No the USSR wasn't impoverished free housing and Healthcare made life much easier and by 1930 homelessness was completely eradicated"
"No housing was not poor, the soviet constitution gave every citizen the right to livable shelter"
"YES PEOPLE HAD RIGHTS STACY READ A FUCKING BOOK"
When I was already into Roman history and the Crusades and now I find myself getting into WW2 as well...
I swear I'm not a white supremacist, they're just really fascinating eras!
If anything, the racists don't actually know or appreciate the real eras in question and their complexities, they only idolize the fake macho versions of these periods.
Audra Thomas posing in front of an F1 tornado in Nebraska, 1989.
-
Marilee Thomas of Beaver City, Nebraska took this photograph of her daughter Audra about two miles from a Furnas County tornado in April 1989. The tornado did cut across her farm and destroyed a barn structure on the property but no lives were lost, thankfully.
“The picture of the tornado is a picture that I took in 1989 and entered into a Kodak contest,” Marilee wrote. “I won second place in the National contest. It has taken its own amazing ride around the world. My youngest daughter, Audra, is in the photo. She is always being called ‘the tornado girl’.”
