for the weirder asks: 19, 24 (returning the question), 33? :)

thank you <3

19: imagine we’re at a sleepover, would you paint my nails? i don't have nail polish, but leaving the logistics aside. I might XD cmon you know me. and at least I do have remover, so if you hate it we're covered on that front but also if you explicitly stated you wouldn't like it I would behave myself XD

24: if we were together on a rooftop, what would we be doing? obv we would look at stars XD love that I read this question, thought. stars duh. sent it to you, and you also went. stars duh XD and yes snacks. very important factor xD

33: the last adventure you’ve been on? what's the definition of adventure tho. couldve been last night you might remember the moment XD but we opted against it. so. maybe sea trip with the bestie (not you) last weekend? even though that wasn't really exciting or anything, just nice and chill.

Basic courgette soup (or pasta sauce)

- 1 large courgette

- 1 onion

- garlic

- salt, pepper, paprika

- cream or creme fraiche or cream cheese

Dice the onion and garlic and fry for a bit (best done in a large pot so you only need to use one). Cut the courgette into small chunks and add them, let it all brown for a bit. Add spices. Add a little water to cover the bottom of the pot and let it simmer until the courgette turns soft. Add the dairy stuff and blend everything with an immersion blender. Add more water if you want it to be more soupy.

With less water you can easily use this as a pasta sauce. Maybe add some feta before or after blending. Or parmesan to serve.

As a soup, you can serve it with Backerbsen. I also like to eat it cold in the summer.

Enjoy!

Thank you for your submission! <3

University asks: 10, 26, 50? :D

10. What surprised you the most about university?

That some people are willing to pay thousands of dollars and either not try hard, sit in class on their phones, or not show up at all. I’ll never understand some of my peers.

26. Favourite online resource?

Google Scholar

50. Strangest university tip you have? 

Take at least one class that is in no way related to what you want to do, it’ll be a breath of fresh air and let you cut loose. I took a costuming class for a semester and it was a lot of fun.

For the drabbles - 20 (🍪) and Norrington/Gillette😇

bless you bestie for making me write about my currently favourite blorbos <3

20: Cookies The offending baked goods sat in the middle of the table, and James made a point of ignoring them while he poured himself a cup of tea. On the other side of the table, Gillette stirred his third cube of sugar into his own tea, eyebrows raised, while making a point out of ignoring James as he stared into his cup until he eventually broke the tension and under James's glowering stare reached for one of the crispy brown - "Do you really not want to try a cookie, dear? "They're still warm and so delicious, you're missing out." "They're biscuits."

Okay then, let me hear it ^^

16. What is one of your favorite words or phrases to use in writing?

37. Pick one of your fics and share three songs to go with it

hehe thank youuu <3

16: What is one of your favorite words or phrases to use in writing? it's not exactly a phrase, but what I really enjoy for some reason is listing things XD I think it often illustrates contexts very well, and i like to come up with examples [of whatever i am currently listing] that the character would have thought of

37: Pick one of your fics and share three songs to go with it well, I'm really bad with song-picking if I am honest ^^' anyway. sun on asphalt is an Annrossier slice of life roadtrip oneshot. which is why I chose it so I can pick very basic roadtrip vibe songs lmao songs i would choose to go with it: > Heroes (David Bowie) > Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen) > Chasing Cars (Snow Patrol)

Top 5 German train/subway stations?😇

man you shouldve asked for the top 5 WORST German train/underground stations lmao. that wouldve been fun XD ok I can't really think of any outstanding underground stations tbh, so I'll just list train stations that come to my mind

5: Berlin Central Station I know I hate Berlin, and I hate this station, too. I know I always get lost there no matter how many times I have to change there. But at least it is relatively clean and relatively warm in winter, so it's a comparatively good station to get stranded. And the shops are quite convenient to reach when you have only fifteen minutes between two trains but need some snacks for the ride. all in all, it probably doesn't deserve all my hate lol. still, out of the top 5 my least favourite haha

4: Karlsruhe Central Station will forever be in fond memory when I went to Wales via Paris with some friends and our train broke down here at 4 in the morning and I basically slept through all of it, and when my bestie woke me and was like hey our train is cancelled i was just like. whatever wake me when we have to get out. but apparently they just found another engine for us somewhere and we could continue to Paris lol

3: Hamburg-Harburg this might seem very random, esp because I've only ever ended up here when things went wrong, but all in all I've always had kinda pleasant experiences here. I feel like this station has good vibes. like a checkpoint from which on everything will go smoothly. idk XD it's probably only a matter of time until I end up stranded here and will hate it from then on

2: Kassel Wilhelmshöhe I've been told that being stranded here is awful, but so far I have not yet been stranded there, and all I can say is that I really like the overgrown wall next to the tracks. looks really pretty.

1: Munich Central Station it's a TERMINUS which is. the superior way to build large train stations, if you ask me. no. fucking. stairs. Its one redeeming quality if I am honest, but this one tops literally everything else

For the five sentence drabble: 75 (mirror) + Elizabeth and James :)

for some reason it was really hard for me to think of ANYTHING that could feature a mirror. besides the classy scene where one character sits in front of a vanity and the other character approaches them from behind and they hold a conversation while looking at each other in the mirror (optionally featuring at least one of them mentioning how beautiful/handsome the other is). and i did NOT want to write that XD

75: Mirror "I still don't think this was necessary," James told Elizabeth as he carried the huge package across the Ikea car park, "and I am still uncertain if we will manage to fit this enormous mirror into the boot." "It was absolutely necessary, and we can fold down the back seats." "But why would you need such a mirror in the bedroom?" "Are you scared of catching a glimpse of us having sex?" Elizabeth wanted to laugh, but when she saw the embarrassed blush on James's cheeks she sighed and patted his arm with the promise of covering it if necessary.
