Rules: tag nine people you want to get to know better!
tagged by: @janiedean. Thank you so much!
Favourite colour: Red.
Currently reading: Not counting this huge amount of stuff I have to read for an article I’m currently writing, I have been slowly making my way through Hilary Mantel’s The Mirror and the Light. It’s not as good as the first two (it misses Anne Boleyn) so I’m finding it a bit of a struggle. I hope it will liven up when Anne of Cleves appears.
Last Song: It was either “I’m so good at Yoga” from Crazy Ex Girlfriend or the England song “Vindaloo”. Everybody I know is getting unreasonably excited that we are not doing terribly at the Euros.
Last movie: I went on a binge watch of easy-viewing films yesterday while writing some job applications, so the award goes to the Brendan Fraser “The Mummy”. I love that film.
Last series: Again, I have no idea, I haven’t watched TV in ages. But it was probably “Shadow and Bone”, I think. It was *okay*, but I loved Nina and Matthias.
Sweet, Savoury or Spicy? Savory
Craving: I want a pizza. I’m probably going to get takeaway tonight.
Tea or Coffee: I drink coffee a little, but mostly tea so I’ll have to go with tea. I like a Rooibos, personally.
Currently working on: My exchange prompt (it is a monstrous beast), the next chapters of A Good Knight Sleep and Baby Mama, an article I’m working on, and a first draft of an original story (which... ahhhhh).
Tagging: @wirettewirette @catherineflowers29 @resthefuture @nenko-dreams @wildlingoftarth @treadcareful @potatothecat @bussdowntarthiana @francy-sketches and anyone else who wants to give it a go.

ALLORA È DECISO! \O/ in effetti non c’è alcuna differenza rilevante, lol.

Reading habits meme
Tagged by @janiedean !
1. Do you have a certain place at home for reading?
Not really though I’ve taken to read on the stationary bike as I pedal, lol
2. Do you use bookmarks? If so, what kind?
Mostly train tickets, scraps of paper, flyers
3. Can you stop reading or do you have to make it to the end of the chapter?
I try to make it to the end of a chapter but it depends on the book, really
4. Do you eat or drink while reading?
Sometimes, but I wouldn’t call that a habit. Sometimes I read while cooking, i.e. if there’s something tedious and repetitive to do like stirring for a while
5. Music or tv while reading?
Music yes, tv can be a background noise but I don’t multitask to that extent
6. One book at a time or multiple?
One at a time
7. Reading at home or while out?
Mostly at home but it’s just a matter of opportunity
8. Reading out loud or silently?
silently
9. Do you read ahead or skip pages?
I am a spoilerophobe, always been, so I never read ahead. Also I have a weird sense of duty so I never skim either, if a book is so boring I can’t read a whole page I’d rather drop it and read something else.
10. Breaking the spine?
Not on purpose, if it happens it happens.
11. Do you write in your books?
Only in school books, it has been ingrained in me at a young age that books should not be “ruined” and I guess it stuck with me. If there’s something I’d like to annotate I do it separately (and then there’s the highlight function on ereaders which is quite cool). On the other hand I like it when a book has a weathered look, it’s not like I want them to look like they’ve just out of the printing press, I just don’t write in them that’s all.
Again, tagging all the mutuals who want to answer!
@janiedean replied to your post: What's even cringier is it felt like they were...
more than polyamory vibes mine were that poe seemed into finn who seemed undecided on whether he was into rey or not and rey was not romantically into either so if that was the plan they failed at it badly
eh, that’s one way to look at it but I felt they were also dropping some damerey baits here and there, what with all the banter and Poe making sure Rey is “alright” when they fall down that cave and shit. It’s basically all pandering with zero substance or writing effort to support it, and boils down to ye old *one cool girl and the two boys who adore her* cliché.
... HMMM jb with “You look like you could use a hug.” ? ;)
“You look like you could use a hug,” he says before he realizes the words are coming out of his mouth.
“I’m fine,” Brienne snaps, pulling further in on herself than she already was with her arms crossed over her chest, looking like he’s just insulted or mocked her instead of offered sympathy.
Her wispy straw colored hair has escaped the confines of the sensible braid she always has it bound into, and her shoulders are stretching the seams of the t-shirt they gave her in place of her own clothes, which will have been bagged as evidence, what with all the blood spattered on them. She must be in shock. He knows he is.
“You are?” he can’t resist scoffing, needing her to say something. “I sure as hell am not. How could I be, after the woman who hired us pointed a gun at your head and told you that if you didn’t shoot me she’d kill you and Pod and half a dozen other bystanders?”
Can’t we talk about what you said in there? he doesn’t ask. She’d shocked him with her confession but he thinks perhaps she shocked herself almost as much. He doesn’t want to push her into a retraction by forcing the issue, not when… not when he’s finally seeing myself clearly.
“She didn’t. I didn’t,” she stammers.
“Only because you shot her in the head,” he points out.
“I had to…” she swallows and he thinks he had never met anymore better capable of self judgement than himself until he met her.
“I’m not blaming you… I just… good god, Brienne. We nearly all died and you are trying to tell me you’re just fine?!”
Talk to me. Why now, of all times, won’t you talk to me?
“Go home, Jaime. Go back to KL like your sister has been so desperately texting you to this whole while. You fulfilled your promise and… I don’t need your pity.”
Oh. So that is what this is about. Brienne is being either selfless or guarded, or maybe both. But she couldn’t be more wrong about what he wants, about his motivations and he can’t stop himself from telling her.
“I don’t want to go back there. I don’t want to go back to her.”
She looks as though he hit her in the face. Shocked and shaken.
“I thought that was the only thing you cared about?”
“Not anymore,” he needs her to understand. “Not for a long while, if I am being honest with myself.”
“Jaime…” she says as he reaches out to touch her shoulder.
He looks into her bright blue eyes and wonders how he could never have thought she was anything less than awe inspiring to look at.
“I hoped you would shoot me,” he admits. “I hoped you’d do it; because, I’d rather be dead than live in a world without you, Brienne.”
“Don’t make fun of me,” she pulls away. “Can’t you just forget what I said in there? I thought we were all going to die or I would never-”
No! she’d cried out, her voice full of gut wrenching anguish which was impossible to mistake. Shoot me if you must, but leave him alone. I’d rather be dead than live on having let him die.
“I’m not making fun of you, damnit,” he sighs in frustration. “Look at me, Brienne. Am I laughing? Do I seem like I’m joking to you?”
She does look at him then, as if seeing him anew.
“You can’t mean-” she shakes her head in disbelief.
The hell with it, he thinks, not so much before as at the same time he grabs the back of her head and pushes up onto his toes, dragging her face down to his.
Brienne makes a sort of choking sound, but she doesn’t push him away (and she easily could), and after a moment her hands move into his hair as she kisses him back.
“I’m yours,” he tells her, as they pull apart breathing heavily. “I will always be yours.”
She hugs him close then, pressing his head to her chest and he can feel her begin to sob.
Also Posted Here on AO3
also please top five roger looks :)
AFSGSHSHSH THAT'S THE KIND OF QUESTIONS I'M TOTALLY HERE FOR
Also, you know that feeling when you are reminded of Tumblr's 10 pics per post limit, and it physically hurts? THAT'S ME RIGHT NOW, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE A MASTERPOST OF ROGER'S BEST LOOKS IF I CAN'T ADD MORE THAN 10 PICS, AKA MAXIMUM 2 PICS PER 1 LOOK?
Okay, let's do it!
My favourite is Roger's 1974 Live at the Rainbow look. Honestly, what a man - the voice, the hair, the outfit❤️❤️❤️
You know that one 1977 interview when Roger is wearing that cute sweater and talks about his "naked and RAW" solo album? Yeah, that's another fave!
Number three - you know the sensation when you hear Roger sing "I'm in love with my car" live, in his peak vocal skills when it comes to performing this particular song AND he is wearing plain black trousers, white shirt and a tie? In case you haven't figured it out yet, 1979 Hammersmith Odeon destroyed me
4 - his early 1970s ethereal, delicate looks which made him look like an angel that descended on Earth to grace the planet
Last but not least - K I M O N O
Damn, that was not the easy one xD I'd love to add so many looks, honestly Roger is this person that looks awesome 90% of the time without even trying! Generally speaking, I'm very soft for the 1970s Roger😂
Send me hot takes/unpopular/popular opinions/anything Queen related!
