New fic! Johanna and Annie in hospital together towards the end of Mockinjay, after Finnick is deployed.

Wednesday Fic Rec (just cause I want to)

I am really enjoying this look at Annie and Johanna's relationship as they get to know each other better after Finnick leaves for the Capitol in the last part of Mockingjay...

Check it out !

Been rewatching Snowpiercer for about twoish days now and guys.....this show was so good in season one why did it have to get bad

favorite line and moment from the books? (from THG asks)

Probably this whole scene:

Then she finds the pearl Peeta gave me. "Is this-?" "Yeah," I say. "Made it through somehow." I don't want to talk about Peeta. One of the best things about training is, it keeps me from thinking of him. "Haymitch says he's getting better," she says. "Maybe. But he's changed," I say. "So have you. So have I. And Finnick and Haymitch and Beetee. Don't get me started on Annie Cresta. The arena messed us all up pretty good, don't you think? Or do you still feel like the girl who volunteered for your sister?" she asks me. "No," I answer. "That's the one thing I think my head doctor might be right about. There's no going back. So we might as well get on with things."

I REALLY love that whole scene. I think it really adds emotional depth to Johanna’s character and in a personal sense it means a lot to me, i’m not gonna go pry into my personal life and why it means so much but I used to think about it a lot, especially that little part at the end ‘there’s no going back. So we might as well get on with things.” The only way to go in this life is forward, there’s no point in trying to stay stuck in the past.

i had a dream last night that we got a snowpiercer prequel and it was revealed that Ruth was married to a woman who died shortly before the snowpocalypse and thus we had canon sapphic Ruth. Anyway I think it's cruel that this isn't actually real.

They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

Good morning only to those writing fanfiction in Celtic languages

[image description: a series of screenshots of a search on Archive Of Our Own. The first is for 63 pieces listed as written in Gaeilge/Irish, the second image is for 33 pieces listed as written in Cymraeg/Welsh, the third for 13 pieces listed as written in Gàidhlig/Scots Gaelic and the fourth image is for 2 pieces listed as written in Scots.]

Update:

[image description: a series of screenshots of a search on Archive Of Our Own. The first is for 164 pieces listed as written in Gaeilge/Irish, the second image is for 50 pieces listed as written in Cymraeg/Welsh, the third for 14 pieces listed as written in Gàidhlig/Scots Gaelic, the fourth is for 6 pieces listed as written in Scots and the last image is of 2 pieces written in brezhoneg/Breton.]

Note: I am aware that Scots is not a Celtic language. I included it because it’s something I thought should also be celebrated.

[duine-aiteach]

(5 actually in Breton)

(134 actually in Welsh)

(All 33 in Gaelic!)

(Only 1 is mislabelled plus the fic that’s in Ogham?)

Bonus one? (30 of the works were an attempt at Scots, unsure of their authenticity. 3 more were art-only works of Trainspotting)

[image description: a series of screenshots of a search on Archive Of Our Own.

Some of you may already know the answer to this!

What moment do you feel is underappreciated?

I think a lot of people appreciate the Johanna Elevator scene as a comedic break but, and maybe this is coming purely from the HC space, not as a character moment. IMO, it's a big look into who Johanna Mason is as a character or, at least, has become. To me, it screams someone who has been so exploited and laid bare that nudity means nothing to her. Her body is hardly hers any more and, so, she can show it off w/o hesitation to any and everyone by now.

Also, in general, her and Finnick's commitment to annoying Katniss just to have childish moments is absolutely golden.

Thank you for the birthday ask!! <3

My dash is so full of middle aged yuri these days, that I am genuinely shocked to find the AO3 tag for Soldier York/Jackson empty?
