this, thank you for saying it. noone should tell you how to grieve and when you should be done. ♡♡♡

I love reading people's tags, and if someone writes their thoughts there I'm so happy to read them! But when someone leaves some comments for me in the post they've reblogged from me, my heart sings.

I was tagged by @sleepingexplorer​ :D

1. “What is your substance, whereof are you made” (what defines you, what made you as you are, or, what is a thing you admire about yourself?)

-Oh dear, this is not easy... I guess what’s most important to me is to always be patient and to never give up no matter how diffficult things get... and I guess I’ve been pretty successful in that aspect so far?

2. “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day” (you are weather. what calming natural event/violent cataclysm are you?)

-Rain, but not the calm, gentle kind, rather a heavy downpour with thunder and lightning looming at a distance.

3. “When most I wink then do mine eyes best see” (have you ever had a dream that came true? or if not, if you want, tell a dream that you had that you would/would not want to come true)

- My dreams are always hella weird so I hope none of them ever come true... like the one with the talking dinosaurs or the one where my house suddenly transformed into a labyrinth with constantly shifting walls... I do have my dream job though so that’s something.

4. “When to the sessions of sweet silent thought” (what person, place, or thing do you miss right now?)

- Some of the people I went to university with. Gonna see them in december at the christmas market though :)

5. “O me, what eyes hath love put in my head” (what person, place, thing, or character do you love unreservedly, despite any flaws?)

- All the BBC Sherlock characters, especially Moriarty (considering the flaws - looking at you season 4 ಠ_ಠ )

6. ok that’s enough of those. :) please tell us a favorite specific alcoholic (or non-) beverage.

- For alcoholic, I’d go with a classic Gin Tonic, for non-alcoholic I’d say hibiscus tea.

7. What is in your dream picnic basket (can you tell i’m hungry)?

- For picnics I usually make a bunch of small pastries with different fillings :)

8. Where is your picnic happening, and with whom?

- A nice, quiet place at the riverside, either with my best friend or maybe I’d just go alone and bring a book.

9. Your last fandom purchase, or happy-making thing you’ve bought yourself recently.

- Fandom-related: I just got a Star Wars-themed ugly christmas sweater that I’m wearing right now and I love it it’s so cozy! Not fandom-related: I saw this absolutely beautiful eye shadow palette last week and I don’t even wear that much eye shadow but I just HAD to buy it the colours were so beautiful ;___;

10. A item of clothing or jewelry that you love to wear.

- I always wear a silver necklace with two pendants, one of them was a gift from my mom, the other one was made by my dad. Can’t even remember the last time I took it off.

11. We all started our blogs for some reason, but what keeps you coming back to this lovely blue site of ours?

- All the amazing people I follow :)

Ok here are my questions:

Your dream cast for a movie! Who would you like to see together on screen?

What kind of movie would it be? Sci-fi, thriller, a comedy?

What’s your favourite place in the world?

What’s the most important thing you own?

And the most useless/dumb/silly thing you own?

What’s your favourite kind of Christmas cookie (or just cookie in general if you don’t celebrate Christmas)?

What was your dream job when you were a kid?

A book you’d recommend? (I don’t need more books but I want more books...)

What’s your favourite song? Not in general, but right at this moment? (Im totally NOT using this to get free book and music recs)

What was your first fandom?

Are you still in that fandom? If not, why?

Tagging @zombievonmorgen, @leagarland , @sweepingshadows, @vidorianfeare, @l3luepearl, @spare-van-keys  - only if you want to of course. And whoever reads this and feels like answering the questions, consider yourself auto-tagged :D

sleepingexplorer replied to your post “i’m working on a pastel goth molly drawing and i’m wondering, do you...”

i think it's hilarious (disclaimer: i am emphatically not the best judge of whether something is weird or not). also, wow i am just in general in love with the concept of pastel goth Molly. ♡ can't wait!

aw thanks!! and actually it was a request from someone from ages ago that I’d like to finally do lol x)

sleepingexplorer replied to your post “Guys I'd like to make an announcement:”

which fic? if i may ask, that is bringing the john feels

It’s a fic called “An Innocent Man” by Fang’s Fawn and its a post reichenbach fic and its one of my absolute favorite fics ever and I just binge-read it and got John feels. His characterization is just so great here, I’m always overflowing with John feels but this one somehow makes me do it even more.

lol thank you for indulging meh :-)) (i am properly comforted now hehe)  I have to say i love doing these.,  I had been looking at books and supplies, and pics on pinterest for litterally months before i dediced to take the plunge. the format is fun/challenging and i think leafing through it once completed will be sooooo nice and rewarding. I just don’t want to get bored, you know? In any case, I am utterly convinced i would love every page of your sketchbook, should you decide to try it.

My love for Sherlock is complete now.
