for the lighthearted asks: 1, 14, 15 !!!
1: “What’s the last thing you did that made you proud of yourself?”
I have high standards for myself, and I usually bite off more than I can chew, so I’m not often proud of myself for things. But this year, with quarantine and everything going on, I’ve been trying to lower the bar, to celebrate the small things, and to indulge in my hobbies without feeling guilty about not being productive. And I highly encourage anyone else struggling with goals and resolutions and the like to do the same. Life’s crazy–even before 2020, it still was! So take it slow, be patient, and do the best that you can every day.
On that note, I’ve written 4.5 total chapters of the first installment of A Heavy Cost (my ETN/WKM crossover fanfic), and I have a pretty good outline for three installments! Once I have about two or so chapters left to write of the first installment, I’m gonna start posting it on AO3 :D
14: “What’s a movie that you feel deserves more love?”
Rogue One! I really like how it’s slightly darker in tone than the other movies, without veering into horror, gore, or other things that companies like to do to ✨spice up✨ a franchise. (Riverdale, Fate of the Winx, ATLA remake, I’m looking at you)
I feel like it’s the only movie where we really get to see the impact of war in the SW universe. We get some of that in Attack of the Clones but not really a lot, since it’s not really a war at that point. And Revenge of the Sith only really mentions it (the Clone Wars series deals with it a lot, but that’s not a movie and it’s LONG).
Rogue One also features one of the best iterations of enemies to lovers I’ve ever seen: Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor (aka Rebelcaptain) 🥰 I love them so much, one of my OTPs!
It’s not a perfect movie, but no movie is really perfect anyway. And you don’t need to know anything about Star Wars to watch it (except basic knowledge about the Empire being evil, Vader being its iron fist, and the Death Star being a thing)!
15: “What’s a song you need people to hear at least once?”
Experience by Ludovico Endinaudi, Minefields by Faouzia and John Legend, Underneath the Tree by Kelly Clarkson, On Top of the World from Barbie, and Don’t Want It Back by Sabrina Carpenter, and Flying Solo from Julie & The Phamtoms.
Yeah, that’s right, I have a list! Probably gonna recommend more JATP songs as I finish the series (which is so good btw!)
Send me a number, and I’ll answer the corresponding question from this list!
