N, P, Q, T, U, V?

N - Favourite animal?

I don't have a top favorite, really haha, but my top three are wolves, cats, and bats!

P - What kind of music I like.

It varies depending on the mood of the day. I like alternative, classic rock, electronic, indie, ska, and swing music to name a few. 

Q - Favourite flower?

Snapdragons!

T - 3 things I love unconditionally.

Video games (big source of inspiration and happiness), my familiar (that cat loves me and only me it's great), and those I consider family (as I'm choosy of that and becoming part of that is a huge deal to me)

U - Favourite time of year, and why

Autumn, because of the coziness and stillness that's setting in. It feels more magical around this time of year too, perhaps it's just more apparent as things wind down for the year. The colors, the crisp smells, the holidays involved.. I really love autumn times.

V - Big dreams?

To become a great illustrator that inspires other younger artists to go for what they want to do and make a career out of it, to travel around with a close friend, to create and bring to life my own story (with the help of others) and have it be remembered by fans.

Thanks for asking! :D

Skyrim asks: Khajiit, sword, vampire, werewolf, mudcrab?

Khajiit: How quick are you to judge?

Hmmm.. I suppose it depends. Mostly on environment. In general though I would say I'm slower to judge than I used to be. I really try not to judge much until I've talked with someone at least a couple times, unless you really put off some kind of vibe.

Sword: How do you defend yourself?

With words I suppose. Deflection, brushing it off as a joke, sarcasm usually. Thu'um when all else fails.

Vampire: Have you ever been power hungry?

Hmm.. I can't say that I really have. Greedy for sure, but power hungry I don't recall being.

Werewolf: Do you prefer the wilderness or civilization?

Wilderness always calls to me MUCH more than cities and streets.

Mudcrab: What’s something that annoys you?

When someone talks over me. :I

Thanks for asking, friend! :)

 “To be honest, if you identify as trans and you are a writer, yet you...”

Ehkä suomessa on hankala saada mitään tarinaa läpi, jos siinä on kauheesti vähemmistöjä - ellei se sitten ole melankolinen tarina, joka keskittyy juuri sukupuoli-identiteettiin / seksuaaliseen suuntautumiseen / rotuun, en tiiä, ihan perseestä.

Mulle ois siinä kirjassa edes yksikin trans hahmo riittäny, mutta toisaalta se oli kirjana aika huono (tai ainakin musta se teksti oli tosi jaarittelevaa ja kyse oli sentään dekkarista). Että ei se trans hahmo ois voinu sitä laittaa julkaisukelvottomaan kuntoon.

Mutta toisaalta Suomessa on julkaistu viime vuonna LGBT+ lastenkirja, niin kyllä varmasti pääsis ne positiivisetkin/muutkin kuin kaapista ulos tarinat markkinoille.

film asks: 17, 19

17. Which cinematic universe would you like to live in?

Oh shoot. Ummm, I think Harry Potter and Middle-earth can't be counted because they were originally book universes. ...I'm gonna answer The Lego Movie, evethough I KNOW it is based on the best toys ever and it's no quite independent movie universe. But yeah. Legos.

18. Mainstream movies or indie movies?

Mainly I watch mainstream, but no doubt one of the best movies I've ever seen, Only Lovers Left Alive, is an indie movie. I also enjoy indie documents pretty much.

diamond & topaz?

diamond:how important is money to you?

I want enough to be able to live nicely, but like that's it. I'm often quite parsimonious when it comes to myself (waited almost 6hrs for a train so that it would cost only 10e instead of 30e) but I like buying gifts for people.

topaz:are your current relationships with others healthy?

Well, currently my relationship with my mom is likely not healthy because of stuff (which is one of the reasons I choose to live on my own even tho I'm not in uni or work). Other than that, I guess my relationships are ok.

77-79

Oh hey ho, long time not seen^^

77. Have you ever drank underage?

That depends what you consider underage, 18 or 21, but anyways the answer is probably yes. But that's because in Germany it's totally cool for kids to drink (a little) alcohol when they're like around 14 y/o.

78. Have you ever done drugs?

Nope. I've considered trying it a lot, but I'm kinda scared to screw my brain more up than it already is xD

79. Who was your first real crush?

That would've been a guy in my elementary school; we were "together" for some months but we were really awkward even about holding hands and he wrote me love notes all the time which realyl annoyed me xD

[saoirseronan]

Yeah, I agree! I don't usually even care for Academy Awards, but if Birdman doesn't win anything, then it's just like... what's the point of the awards, y'know?

The Academy Award nominations this year are bullshit. And completely lacks any diversity. I love the fact that Birdman and The Grand Budapest Hotel got nominated… But what about Selma and Ava DuVernay? Gone Girl and David Fincher? Gugu Mbatha-Raw in Belle? David Oyelowo in Selma? Did they not watch these outstanding movies/performances? And I’m not even sorry for saying this but who the fuck decided it was a good idea to give American Sniper 6 nominations?! I am so ashamed. I don’t think I could ever look at the Academy Awards the same way again. They went from giving awards to a great movie like 12 Years a Slave, to nominating American Sniper for 6 awards and not including any POC actors in any of the Best Actor/Actress categories. Don’t even get me started with Boyhood. What a load of bullshit.
