it's not like i reached my post limit and can't post things like i used to or anything xD but don't mention it. you're really, quite literally, the sherlock to my john. i'm very john watson-ish about things. while you're all sherlocky. plus, i'm a doctor of sorts and you're a medicinal chemist. it's fate ^^,
(I’m sorry, I couldn’t help it xD)
Thank you. I really appreciate it… *hug* I really would be lost without you.
Which reminds me: does that make Jé-chan our housekeeper landlady? Or maybe Lestrade, since our craziness inside the fandoms and shipping it’s not her division?
[You can answer when you reset your post limit xD]
hiii wonderful mishamiga! the present ask serves as a notice that your kind soul now has a permanent link in my own blog's sidebar, and you'll forever be referred to as "the sherlock to my john" happy mishapocalypse!
Oh. My. God.
Thank you so much!!! *tight hug*
I shall update your category on my tag list (and eventually put the permanent link on the sidebar): Iz, the John to my Sherlock - I’d be lost witout my blogger!
hi! are you still doing the ‘dvd commentary’ thing? cause last chapter really gave me the feels. seriously, the way you portrayed thorin’s and dis’ relationship is just… i have no words, really. anyway, here’s the passage:
“YOU HAVE A COMPANY TO RUN. OUR FATHER’S COMPANY. You have me, you have your nephews, you. Have. Responsibilities. And running off isn’t one of them, hunting down some person you don’t even know exists isn’t one of them, stopping taking your medication isn’t one of them and it’s disrespectful and it isn’t right, for my sake, FOR MY SAKE WHICH YOU NEVER SEEM TO-“
And then, suddenly- but it’s imaginable, it’s known, it’s somehow the way she expects him to react: he’s in her face, mere inches from her.
“He killed Thrain and Thror! He took A.R.K.E.N.S.T.O.N.E! He burned our house down, Dis! Where YOU grew up and where Frerin grew up and where I took care of you and where Mother died and-” but he stops himself before he can finish, because her eyes, big, and blue and scared are staring at him and they suddenly look completely and utterly defenseless for a moment and he stops in his tracks, voice dying down as he realizes he’s yelling at his sister- no, not even yelling. He’s snarling, vicious and cruel and mad.
from ch8.
oh, man. thorin and dis.
aka, "put that family angst back where it came from or so help me", a musical by matty feat. the shards of his broken heart.
[warning: mini spoiler about frerin, just in case you don't want any]
dis is the third child born into a family that, a part from their mother, had mainly been up to then, made up of males: frerin, thrain, thorin, without counting thror and balin and, of course, dwalin (although they weren't really present until thorin, frerin and dis's mother died: balin stepped in to help thrain with the kids, and dwalin just tagged along).
dis is thus the youngest (and, honestly, the most mature, but i digress), and, hint hint, thrain's favorite. she pretty much got away with a lot of things while growing up (including getting pregnant at eighteen) and, in any case was always protected tooth and nail by thorin.
literally.
nonetheless, she's had to go through her fair share of crap: her husband died in a car accident when her kids were eight and twelve, respectively, less then a year later her big brother was kidnapped in afghanistan, and then her other brother shot himself in the face while thorin was in afghan. and she went through all of these things more or less on her own.
fast-forward ten years: her house has just burned down, she's just lost her father and grandfather. her last surviving brother has just told her he's stopped taking his medication (and thorin has a pretty severe post-traumatic stress disorder condition, psychotic tendencies and depression) and is about to embark on some demented quest she knows nothing about, dragging her kids along in the process. plus, dis has already had experience with thorin losing his cool. she's seen what can happen when he does- he's always, ever since they were kids, had anger issues. she knows he can be terrifying. destructive. even violent.
and thorin knows she knows: her recoiling the way she does isn't the first time she reacts that way. he knows he's scared her and he hates himself for it. thorin lives in the constant fear of hurting those he loves: he knows he'd be capable of doing so.
which is something that he carries with him throughout the entirety of collateral damage: he knows dis trusts him in bringing her kids back home safe, and he also knows he wouldn't be able to forgive himself if anything happened to either kee or fee.
For a long time, a friend has been telling me to join tumblr. Though I refused a lot of times, I came to realize that I already spent so much time browsing posts and bookmarking different blogs, that creating a tumblr would probably be helpful...
Rule 1: always post the rules.
Rule 2: answer the questions the person who tagged you has written and write 11 new ones.
Rule 3: tag 11 new people and link them to your post.
Rule 4:let them know you’ve tagged them.
If you could be a bird, what kind of bird would you be & why?
A phoenix, because hell yeah fantasy (and because if I were to search for a "common" bird, I'd end up wasting hours of my life on wikipedia comparing different species and sub-species. oh the woes of being a biology student).
What do you take into more consideration: someone with strong opinions, different than yours, but that respects yours or someone with the same opinions and views as yours but doesn’t respects anyone else?
The first option, I suppose. I disagree with a lot of things that people I get along with say and, though they exasperate me too often, we still get along. I don't think I know anybody who fits the 2nd option, though, so my answer might be a bit unfair.
Do you prefer a strong coffee or a strong tea?
Hot chocolate, thanks.
What is your opinion on those so-called hipsters?
I think it's silly, mostly. I understand that, at times, when the masses all fall in love with something, it will be spoiled by the way those things are twisted so they'll fit into media's standards. But really, there's no need to hate on what's mainstream simply because it's mainstream. It's idiotic. A person should like or dislike something regardless of what the main populace thinks of it.
What is the thing that you’ve made that made you the most proud of?
Idk. My Luna and my Dalek earrings perhaps? Speaking of which, I should get fimo and redo them, so I can wear them more often. The ones I made are heavy as hell.
What are your favourite youtubers?
The vlogbrothers and charlieissocoollike.
How are you socially? Do you like partying, or do you rather stay at home and read/watch a movie? Or are you both?
Stay at home. Without a doubt. I can't be around people for too long. I just get exhausted beyond words and need at least some 36 hours to recover. I mean, I enjoy going out once or twice per semester, but that's it. Really.
What is your favourite type of movie?
Genre, you mean? I don't have one. I like a bit of everything.
Would you like to see your favourite actor/actress doing some psychologically disturbing character?
YES. Well, in a way I've already seen that happen. Dan Rad was bloody great in Equus and if his character isn't psychologically disturbed then idk what he was. Siriusly man, that play was twisted in ways I can't even begin to understand. Obviously, I wish I could watch it again.
What do you think that would happen if the dragon in The Hobbit was actually one of the lost dragons in Westeros?
Well, umm, that would make little sense, really. Simply because the dragons are so different in each story. I haven't read anything in GoT about dragons craving gold more than anything, for example. So, yeah. I'm sorry, Diogo, but I can't imagine Smaug as belonging to Westeros *is bad at crossovers*
What is the book that you’re looking forward to read the most?
I'm looking forward to reading... ALL THE BOOKS! :D first I must finish Les Mis though. book's great, but man it's bloody long and detailed.
Now onto the questions:
What are the eleven questions you wish your best friend would ask you? What would you answer?
no, I'm not lazy (ok, I am), I just have to work and yes.
