6. pastel, boho, tomboy, preppy, goth, grunge, formal or sportswear?
I prefer formal-wear, as I feel more masculine wearing it, and as I grew up seeing my dad in suits, I really associate it with masculinity and intelligence. That being said, I do sometimes go for a more tomboy look depending on what kind of mood I’m in (I’m genderfluid).
15. favourite book you read as a school assignment?
Honestly, I loved ‘Of Mice and Men’. It was an amazing piece of literature that completely took me in. For me, it wasn’t that much the story-line, as it was the unerring friendship between George and Lennie. I would definitely recommend this to people who haven’t read it yet!
61. favourite line you heard from a book/movie/tv show/etc.?
**THE FOLLOWING HAS SPOILERS FOR THE FOLK OF THE AIR SERIES. DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING READING IT**
From a book called ‘The Queen of Nothing’ by Holly Black, which was the last book of the trilogy of the Folk of the Air series, which I absolutely loved. It’s written from the main character’s perspective. My quote is from when she is deciding what to do during a dilemma between the safety of her kingdom and the safety of her beloved, currently trapped in a monster’s body (He’s the King of Elfhame/Faerieland, but they’re married, so she’s the Queen too). When she finally decides she thinks:
'And if the serpent grows in monstrousness and corruption, if it poisons the land of Elfhame itself, then let me be the queen of monsters.
Let me rule over that blackened land with my redcap father as a puppet by my side.
Let me be feared and never again afraid.
Let me have everything I ever wanted, everything I ever dreamed, and eternal misery along with it.
Let me live on with an ice shard through my heart.’
This really struck a chord with me as I developed PTSD in September 2019, so I’ve had plenty of demons to deal with that I am slowly learning to overcome. SLOWLY. Thanks for the asks!!!
