18, 35, 40!

18. Have you ever liked someone you didn’t expect to?

If we’re talking attracted-to kind of like, then yes, and if we’re talking liking-people-in-general kind of like, then also yes. I’ve been friends with a lot of people I never expected to actually like (although to be fair a lot of those friendships in the past were bad ideas and have since ended, but the ones I have now that I didn’t expect to have are all going well and I’m very happy with them).

35. Did you have a dream last night?

I... don’t think so? I remember waking up this morning and thinking like there was some kind of change I had to make to some kind of list of preparations I had made, which I’m pretty sure is dream-related, but I honestly can’t remember if I had one or not.

40. Did you have a good day yesterday?

Yeah! I stayed up until 5:30 am like a total moron but I had a good time! Back in Oberlin so I’m very happy with things overall.

AKRU!!!

A: An uplifting song: Rilo Kiley - A Better Son/Daughter. Your ship may be coming in/you’re weak but not giving in/to the cries and the wails of the valley below

K: A song I know all the lyrics to: uhhh wow that’s...a lot of songs? I tend to get way too into one song/album and memorize all the lyrics. The Decemberists - Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect is one I could probably sing in my sleep. And we are vagabonds/we travel without seatbelts on/and live this close to death

R: A song that I’ve listened to lots of times recently: The Civil Wars - From This Valley. Oh won’t you take me from this valley/To that mountain high above?/Oh I will pray, pray, pray/til I see your smilin’ face/I will pray, pray, pray to the one I love

U: A song that reminds me of a fictional pairing KATELY NDO YOU EVEN KNWO WTF YOU’RE ASKING ME?? I have been listening to and making fanmixes for fictional pairings since my LIVEJOURNAL days, this is like 90% of what I think about throughout the day, I am overwhelmed with choice. Ok I guess my two biggest pairings throughout the years have been Doctor/Rose and Hannigram.

Doctor/Rose: Gregory and the Hawk - Boats and Birds. But you can skyrocket away from me/and never come back if you find another galaxy/far from here with more room to fly/just leave me your stardust to remember you by

Hannigram: Florence & the Machine - Howl. If you could only see the beast you've made of me/I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free/screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart/drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart. It’s so! Fucking! Perfect! For both of them! DNOT LOOK AT ME!!!!

I got so emotional doing that last one that I accidentally ate half a pint of ice cream and now i need to go to sleep I’ll do the rest of the asks in the morning.

do u have an opinion on nelly the calm owl? inquiring readers need to know

okay I did not know who Nelly the Calm Owl was and so I googled her and watched the video and made a noise somewhere between a scream and a wheezing cough so. Nelly is good.

how about L U K and E!!!

L- Longest maintained friendship goes to Brett, who I first met/befriended in elementary school.

U- The main umbrella I’ve been using is a kinda lame alternating brown/beige and black tends to crop up. Definitely open to more colors!

K- Not yet, and hopefully never!

E- Probably my buddy Grant, one of my best friends from middle school onward.

YOUR MERMAIDING IS AMAZING??? i fully support u and if u ever want some amateur design input i am all ears

<3 <3 <3 thank youuuuu yeah a lot of it’s probably just in my head, but I’m in a weird position where I’m not a pro mermaid (since I don’t have the licensing stuff & don’t do things where I’d get paid for it yet) but it’s still slightly more than just a hobby because I actively seek out photographers/advertise for modeling and stuff so ¿¿¿??? what call

I CAN DO THIS ACTUALLY

AT THIS POINT I WILL TAKE ANY AND ALL HELP/OPINIONS, I had a vague idea for what I wanted it to be like but it turns out the photo I had in mind is TERRIBLE DIMENSIONS and doesn’t seem to be working and now I just keep uselessly fighting the design software I was using >: [

whispers………….my company could make scalloped shaped cards……….but they would probably cost too much bc we cater to bougie people :((((

omggggg. yeah right now I’m just looking at something cheap+gloss finish since I still kinda feel like a faker with this :( but if in the future I ever start getting legit work & can justify Super Fancy Business Cards I am TOTALLY KEEPING THIS IN MIND!

Your DR Style is superb so that could work out well!! Is the base pay without commission acceptable? If it isn’t there’s also the part where people try to compete and take commissions from each other :/

Thanks! And the base pay without commissions is basically nonexistant. The set up is possibly unusual in that the targets are small businesses that agents are generally supposed to find on their own, not like large groups that the insurance company gives you as a target to sell to. I don’t know how competition plays out there. It’s a good point.

i would commission you (possibly not a DR sprite altho yours are ASTOUNDINGLY GOOD) if you were up for that!

thevikingsduplex replied to your post: “Time to be an insurance agent until I find lab work, possibly? Hgh....”

I would definitely be down to commission you, if you do end up offering them.

I definitely am up for commissions at the moment, DR or not. You can get a feel for pricing here, although I decide on actual prices for each piece individually, taking into account how much time I put into it.
