HELLO HELLO (on mobile, can't tag, please read)

My lovelies, I enlisted your help for Ambitious Tumblr Plans and then I fucking disappeared into horrible depression and unexpected relationship issues hell. I...am more stable now, although things are still uncertain. And I feel I'm able now to give as much of myself as the project deserves. I guess what I'm asking is - is anyone still up for Project Donut? :D

Choose 5 OTP’s without looking at the questions in the Read More first, then tag five people.

1. Levi/Hanji

2. Combeferre/Enjolras/Grantaire/Montparnasse

3. Jack Rackham/Anne Bonny

4. d'Artagnan/Athos

5. Black Widow/Hawkeye

And tagging: acronius, cyxlops, shadowstep-of-bast, veriteti, werepuppyscott

1. Do you remember the episode/scene/chapter that you first started shipping 5?

The Avengers, that scene in which Coulson calls Natasha to get her involved and uses Clint as an argument. FEEL THE POWER OF LOVE.

2. Have you ever read fanfiction about 2?

NO, since there are exactly TWO people in the whole fandom who ship it. I've written some though, does my own work count?

3. Has a picture of 4 ever been your screen saver/profile picture/tumblr ID?

Half of it was my icon for 6 weeks, while bae had the other half <3

4. If 3 were to suddenly break up today, what would your reaction be?

"Jack stop being a jackass, you won't survive a day without her. ANNEEE COME BAAAACK"

5. Why is 1 so important?

Because they are both so fucking weird in completely different ways, and it still works out. Well in my shipper's eyes it does, canon has yet to back me up.

6. Is 4 a funny ship or a serious ship?

Depends on the moment, really? I mostly see them as funny ship, Athos is so done with everything all the time and d'Artagnan is over-excited puppy.

7. Out of all your ships listed, which ship has the most chemistry?

Natasha and Clint. Duh.

8. Of all the ships, which ship has the strongest bond?

...probably Natasha and Clint again. Although Jack and Anne are a very close second.

9. How many times have you read/watched 2’s fandom?

TWO. PEOPLE. IN A WHOLE WORLD. What fandom?

10. Which ship lasted the longest?

What kind of question is that. In canon? Jack Rackham/Anne Bonny, they were together for most of their natural lives (we don't know if the show won't break them up though). In my battered heart? Levi/Hanji.

11. How many times, if ever, has 5 broken up?

...I honestly have no idea, I think they have been officially together just once? So probably once?

12. If the world was suddenly thrust into a zombie apocalypse, which ship would make it out alive, 1 or 3?

Both. They all had fuckton of experience both in fighting and strategising.

13. Did 4 ever have to hide their relationship for any reason?

Just all the time...

14. Is 5 still together?

Who the fuck knows?

15. Is 1 canon?

Canon friendship, yep.

16. If all five ships were put into a couples' Hunger Games, which couple would win?

...oh dear god, what a bloody mess that would be. Probably Natasha and Clint, simply because they would have least reservations about killing other people to survive.

17. Has anyone ever tried to sabotage 5’s ship?

Probably? Perks of being well-known and deadly...

18. Which ship(s) would you defend to the death and beyond?

Jack Rackham/Anne Bonny. THEY WERE MADE FOR EACH OTHER.

19. Have you ever spent hours a day going through 3’s tumblr page?

Not really, but I have spent quite a lot of time in tag of show they are in (Black Sails), so...

20. If an evil witch descended from the sky and told you that you had to pick one of the five ships to break up forever, which ship would you sink?

d'Artagnan/Athos. They would still be best buddies among Musketeers, so it's okay :'D

[maawi]

5,6,7,8 :3

5. Has anyone ever given you roses?

Yes! 

6. Who do you text the most?

Kate, my irl bestie.

7. First person to text today?

No one yet.

8. What color are your eyes?

Greenish-brownish. HUGH JACKMAN COLOUR.

EHEEHEHEHEHEHEHHE

I just made fond crinkly face at the screen, it’s FUCKING RIDICULOUS REACTION THAT’S WHAT IT IS.

[zofmoesia]

Thinking of characters who went through abuse just makes me cry. Esp when it comes to ones like Renegade, Zarek, Acheron, and Styxx. Like each of them show signs of what they went through in their own way and it upsets me that jkr skipped over this with Harry. Because signs of abuse (in any form) doesn't just go away.

I'm 24 and people can likely still tell that I'd been abused (though it was by my peers in school). Abuse has many forms; domestic, childhood, peer to peer, emotional, physical, sexual, etc. 

But the signs – those are hard to miss honestly...

Like with Zarek, there are many things he does that are as a result of his abuse; he reacts unfavourably and violently to unwanted touch, throwing Talon off him when Talon was just trying to keep him from killing Valerius. When reminded of the abuse he endured he attacks his own brother. He doesn't trust people, he's hostile, depressed, borderline suicidal, hates people who treat him as being beneath them. 

Chances are the only reason Acheron tolerates how aggressive and violent Zarek is is because he too had been abused as a child. 

All four are shaped by what they endured and it's a big part of why when I write Zarek in an AU on my rp blog I keep that part because while it's not ALL of who he is, it's a big part of it.

Dear Shadow!!! :DD

Dear Shadow,

once upon a time, a heart-broken girl was scrolling through Cherik tag. And just as she was about to give up hope of finding anything of interest there, lo and behold, she encountered THE GREATEST IDEA FOR CROSSOVER FANFIC EVER.

And now, 11 months later, it is still not completed =P I don’t blame you, though, with the speed I’m proofreading it, it will take us years.

Unrelated, I know I’m the one who insisted on calling you Shadow even when permitted outherwise, but it’s so hilariously unfitting - you are a fucking ray of light (except the times when you get murderous, which, by the way, I don’t find even remotely scary - and idea that other people do is still fucking hilarious), and I’m so damn glad I have someone like you to puff our chests out and huff about how great we Slytherins are.

Yours,

Maawi

PS. But seriously, there is not even REMOTELY enough cats in Slytherin common room.
