Where would your dream vacation be and why?

Thanks! 

I’d love to go to somewhere abroad one of these days. I’m really humbled by the fact that I’ve never been out of the United States, compared to so many people, both IRL and online, who have gotten the chance to expand their horizons, and I would love to change that. Obviously, Ireland or England would be at the top of my list, since I really, really would like to see some of the places I’ve read so much about. I would love to retrace some of my favorite places from Irish myth, for example, pay my respects to Bres at Mizen Head, where he died according to legend. I’ve spent so long working on him, and I feel like I almost owe him a debt of gratitude since my paper on him got me my BA. 

Or go to France and see Versailles for myself, possibly catch a musical, go the Louvres and catch some of the other cool exhibits there while everyone swarms towards the Mona Lisa. (My ULTIMATE dream would be attending the masquerade ball they throw yearly at Versailles.) Break into the Biblioteque Nationale for the Forbidden Papers on Pierre-Francois Rivierre du Puget, since Gallica hasn’t digitilized it yet. 

I would love to go to Japan for a little while, if my Japanese ever improves beyond the very, very basic. (”Hello, I am a dumb gaijin. Please help me.”) After this long, I would love to see a Toho or Takarazuka show in person. Scope out some of the nice merchandise for myself. There are so many fantastic attractions in Tokyo alone that it would be FANTASTIC just to look. (Are all my decisions for dream travel destinations decided by my favorite musicals? Possibly.)

UGH I love how joyful the fandom gets at this time of year? I've been paying more attention to the fandom and this blog lately and everyone's just bubbling with excitement. There's so much creativity, especially with the festival and how much everyone gets into it! I had an intense moment of appreciation and just wanted to share the thought! :)

ME TOO??????? I FEEL SO, SO ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Each Scorpio Races season is special, but it feels especially so this year! I totally have to credit @applecakeandchainsaw and @notpuckconnolly with giving the fandom a shot in the arm this year the Free Rein streaming party, among other things. And @skatzaa with all the fan fiction and recs! And, really, there are so many of you whose enthusiasm throughout the year has really kept us going, so thank you to everyone! I wish I could list out every single one of you! You are all wonderful and deserve so much credit for making The Scorpio Races Fandom such an utter joy!

Sending more cause I need to know jfsalkfjsa: Thoughts on Midoriya and also Monoma?

I had to Google Monoma to even remember who he was so sadly I have minimal thoughts on him except that he’s a smug jerk where Bakugo is an angry jerk to make a good balance of ranting between the two.

Holey Moley do I love Midoriya! I got sucked into the show so hard with his backstory I love characters that works hard to get where they are and Midoriya sure does show that with his hardcore training in the first episodes along with his notes upon notes upon notes. It’s usually a trait left for side characters to be the super nerdy person who knows everyone’s power but I really like seeing it on a main character. He always makes sure to thank those that help him and is proud of others when they do their best and that’s just so good.My favorite Midoriya moment is during the race part of the Sports Festival when he takes the shield and sets off a bomb so that he can launch himself into the finish line. It was such an over the top enjoyable moment!
