prepare your inbox because I'm about to send you a favorite line from every chapter of red streak
I am in AWE of this because you hit the DAMN ASK LIMIT sending these, a limit I didn’t even know EXISTED.
so.
for humbling and educating and flattering me all at once, I must bow before you, my sweet, sweet prince
(lines below the cut, so I don’t forget your selfless act)
chapter one has this gem: “The single naked face was impossible to ignore, so inhuman that Hannah struggled to pick out anything except the creature’s eyes. Those mercury-bright eyes burned across the crowd, and the silence stretched thinner than ever. It was a primordial stare, like something forged by millennia of evolution to devour them all alive, bowels first.” so fucking RAW. i love it
ch 2: “The Marine was half-conscious, stripped to little more than a torn under-suit, and only seconds from being impaled on a spike. She didn’t seem to notice. Still fighting like hell. Oorah.” FUCK YEAH THAT’S ASHLEY ALRIGHT
ch 3: “Shepard grinned; there was something charmingly old-world about the idea of christening a ship with her own blood.” This paints such a damn good picture of your shep i wanna cross-stitch it and hang it on my wall
ch 4: “The sharp jut of his hip probed suggestively into her lower back, his hot breath tickled the side of her neck, and he leaned so close that she could smell him: aquatic and refreshing. Goddammit, what a waste.” Oooooh Shepard you can’t hide it from yourself you’re into himmmmmmmm ooooohooooooh
ch 5: “He had never seen a human mashed against a turian; a scant two decades since Relay 314 had not done much to warm relations. The residual taboo rendered the woman in streaks of inescapable neon. With one look, every inch of her was burned onto the back of his eyes — garish — pornographic — brilliant.” Garrus’s mind here is such a fantastic photographic thing but this line just stood out so well to me.
ch 6: “Shepard’s voice sliced through the room with the same haunted, careful polish of that ancient bloodthirsty curio.” Really I loved the rawness of the whole interrogation scene but this line is haunting
ch 7: “There was blood in everything now - blood and the rancid, unmistakable stink of death being feebly warded off one hour at a time. It wouldn’t be long before they were all dust.” THIS WHOLE CHAPTER FRED. THE WHOLE THING. FUCK YOU IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE. FUCK MY HEART TOO.
ch 8: “Perversely, it was the unbridled fury on his face that gave her any hope at all. There was no way in hell he had authorized this firefight. Judging by the look on his face, the sight of the smoldering outpost had offended him to the core. They had that in common.” I love the whole theme of all alien races just being people. They’re just like us. Shit gets me pumped.ch 9: “As she looked at him - really took him in at long last - her face softened. All at once, like a time-traveler, she transformed back into someone younger, warmer, and far more familiar. He remembered this face. His blood turned over. Red kept herself buried deep. And no wonder.” Oh, Fred. Oh the boy’s got it bad, Fred.
we live in the shorties club together lmao.... like i'd never really *felt* that short, but i'd been noticing my height difference with others more and more and now i feel a fool, i am booboo the clown
to be fair
my mother was always INCREDIBLY insistent it was the case we were both 5'11", *maybe* 5'10", and i totally believed her even when a doctor told me otherwise and she vehemently insisted that wasn't true
it never really struck me as something to pay attention to once i left home, since i wore heels all the time and it was less noticeable
then on meeting my gf, a certified amazon, "you thought you WHAT? lmaoooooooo"

If youve got the spoons to, making bread is super tasty and way cheap. If you don’t, you can still get frozen bread dough on the cheap and literally all u gotta do is let it rise before slappin it in the oven (i do this a lot because i usually have 0 energy after work)
prince-everhard replied to your post “Okay so like a serious question: I’ve seen some posts that say “I have...”
It used to be a separate diagnosis, but as medicine and psychology have advanced drs have learned that they are the same issue caused by the same thing, and that different "symptoms" are because people's brains are different! The term ADD started to fall out of popular use in the 2010s, but was technically drs were recognizing that ADHD and ADD were the same thing with different characteristics by the mid 1990s.
@prince-everhard Thank you for answering this! I never see any posts for ADD and felt like it was something I made up? Especially on Tumblr cause it feels like all diagnosis are listed here, I wonder if that’s why “boys and girls with ADHD have different traits” because it’s actually ADD that more women have while men tend to have more ADHD. Just a wondering, feel free to ignore.
