4, 25, 29 (for the 65 questions post, if it's not too late) :)

4. What is your favorite word?

FUCK. It has so many uses in its various permutations.

25. You just found $100! How are you going to spend it?

So I converted this and that’s £67.00. I would probably put it towards my loan. This year (and next) I’m working on getting a loan I have paid off, and every little helps.

29. What is your favorite expletive?

See the answer to question 4 :P.

likeatumbleweed replied to your post “So I watched Battle of the Five Hours Armies. Um. It was...”

I wholeheartedly agree, but then we may have been deprived of Crimson "I Think Tom Hiddleston Is Naked Again" Peak, so...

You make an excellent point.

Honeydew, pineapple, kiwi, tangerine :)

Weedy, how dare you, you are a married woman!

Let us elope, mon adorée, and run away together to make moon eyes at each other and write bad poetry and possibly purple-prosed smut fiction.

Oh, 7 and 8 too

7. Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

rgoirqghrgnjrghrg this isn't fair.

A couple of snippets from re-reading stuff. I'm sure I can find better but I'm going cross-eyed so this will do:

The knowledge, bone deep, that he really did love her was the scariest thing she’d ever experienced.

It was easy to admit to herself, in the soft twilight, that she still loved Loki—the Loki she knew before she lost the first test. He had never been an easy man to deal with but despite his flaws, despite the way he believed the universe to revolve around him, he’d always made up for it. He built his walls so high it took her years to convince him to open the gate, but for those scant moments when he did let her in she’d found something worth holding onto.

A tiny part of her wanted to make bargains with the universe, that she would do anything to bring that Loki back. The rest of her was ready to tear that part out and bury it here, among the dying leaves, because a bargain like that would only come back to haunt her. She’d gambled enough in her life for him. There might not be a way of bringing him back anyway; better to believe him dead, mourn him and move on with her life.

The danger in that lay in how willing Loki was to let her move on. Given chance, he would chase her, if only for the thrill of the hunt, to steal back what he believed belonged to him. Other people could—would—get hurt. He had her painted into a corner. But she wouldn’t be bullied by him, not anymore. Her choices were her own, and for every threat he made to manipulate her, she would make it known that he pushed her further away. Either he climbed his way out of the pit he’d fallen into or she would find some place in the universe to be free of him.

She stayed until the sun dipped level with the treetops, lighting up the clearing so it appeared the fallen leaves were aflame. She had to cross that barrier to return home, like walking through purifying fire, the tears burnt from her face.

And for dialogue:

Loki’s smirk had Asta itching to smack it off his face. “I’m surprised they trust you, not when I scrambled your brains so thoroughly.”

A muscle in Barton’s jaw twitched, and he raised his wrist to his mouth. “The Squire of Dimness is awake again. Permission to have him muzzled?”
