heyyyyyy ao3 reader here, any idea when you might upload the last chapters of Fervor and Finality? i’ve become dependent on seeing the outcome having read what’s up of the series like 7 times now. and if you don’t plan on writing or uploading the ending, can i A: know how it was originally going to end or B: Write an ending for it myself?

hello silversylvie, fully finished story drops somewhen in june. if i am a Bad Author and Have Not Uploaded Jack Shit on june 30th feel free to take it and fucking run with it

Vik: i look good

Tom: you look insane

Vik: insanely good

Tom: keep telling yourself that

Vik: die slowly, Tom

cannot believe they reduced rey’s character to fit the narrative of the villain’s redemption cannot believe they sidelined finn poe and rose so bad cannot believe every member of the OG trio died cannot believe they brought palpatine back cannot believe we got no rational explanation abt snoke or the resistance or the first order cannot believe they didn’t plan out three movies AHEAD OF TIME

SCREAAAAAAM

so about me:

HIIII i'm alexa (if you're from 🇵🇱 call me Ola <333)

i LOVE books, mostly fantasy, but sometimes i'll read something else

series that live in my head rent free:

got, tog, the deavabad trilogy, soc duology, acotar??????, and much more

my beloved characters:

Nesta Archeron, Darayavahoush e-Afshin, Sansa Stark, Daenerys Targaryen, the whole Martell house, Lucien Vanserra, Gwyneth Berdara, Emerie, Nahri e-Nahid, Jude Duarte, Cardan Greenbriar, Inej Ghafa, Jesper Fahey, Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, Dorian Havilliard, Manon Blackbeak, Elide Lochan, Lorcan Salvaterre, Gavriel, Fang Runin, Lidia Cervos

i also love: crocheting, painting, drawing, going to the gym, writing, poetry, tbh most forms of art, cooking, baking, EATING THE FOOD I MAKE, doing gel nail extentions (i'm proud of this one), complaining, annoying my friends, summer, autumn but only in theory (as soon as the weather gets cold i loose my will to exist), hot girl walks, taylor swift, just overall listening to music and MANY other things

i also like to make my own life miserable by choice sometimes (TRYING NOT TO DO THAT A LOT, but chaos just CALLS to me), rn it's just a whole mess kept together by a single thread. i'm not in a very positive place in life, but i want to figure it all out so keep your fingers crossed for me💖💖

i am usually thirsting over fictional characters (or this one tall hot guy from my town who doesn't know about my existence)

my romantic life is almost non existent tho, so there's not a lot of tea on it

i'd love to move out of poland in a couple of years and i'm contemplating canada, scotland, denmark and norway (leaning the most towards canada and scotland because i have family there)

i would love to become a tattoo artist and i hope i finally take steps toward it

i sometimes feel like i have one braincell (and share it with my friends)

but hey at least i'm fun right

i don't know what else to put in here so yeah!! but if anyone has read it up to this point, love you, you're amazing!!

tagged by my beloved friend @bladeofavernus <333 ily!!!!!

3 ships : Narumitsu (Ace Attorney), Rhysha (TFTBL), Jacktower (OCs belonging to @randomgooberness and @collabwithmyself!!!!)

First ship : I have... zero clue tbh 😅

Last song : Comme Ils Disent - Charles Aznavour

Last movie : the lord of the rings!!!!! I got to see the whole trilogy at the local movie theater last sunday, it was so cool :D!!!!!!

Currently reading : nnnnnot much :')

@userwitchy -> @staceydenovo

Spooky season has ended. It is now time to rep my favorite Christmas movie trilogy, The Princess Switch.

tagging some beloved mutuals <333 @addys-beth, @joey-potters, @robert-englund, @jetnolastname, @paceyjoeys

Ship game!

tagged by beloved auntie @vera-dauriac ! thank you <33 and as always, because i am incapable of just giving a short simple answer... lets go

OTP:

Carlos/Rodrigo AND Rodrigo/Philip. Putting them both because they need each other to reach their full potential.

Ship that you love but your friends don't (and that's ok):

uhhhh it's honestly hard to think of one that i wouldn't share with any friend at all

Wholesome ship:

it used to be Carlos/Rodrigo but then i started dissecting them more and turns out there's more codependency and manipulation than you see at first glance so I'll say uhhhh Tenth Doctor/Rose Tyler? they have their own issues but. yknow. nothing compared to opera couples.

Comfort ship:

Snufkin/Moomin ig? it's special. it's close to my heart more because of what it symbolises than because i want those two to fuck (i do NOT actually want them to fuck at all, dear god, i don't even want to think about it). it's still very melancholy and regret-tinged. i feel like the 'comfort' questions don't rly apply to me cause what i love in fiction above all else is tragedy, unhappy endings, toxicity, generally Bad Things. the way i like to engage in media is weeping tears of genuine anguish over my beloved doomed characters/ships so there's not much space for true, long-lasting comfort.

maybe Eddie/Chrissy from Stranger Things too? cultivating a healthy relationship with another person while battling an ED is not easy to say the least (maybe even impossible, at least to me) so yeah, maybe in an AU focused on her recovery they could be a comfort ship to me.

Crack ship:

Duke of Alba/father Domingo

Ship that should be popular but isn't:

Athos/Aramis. there, I said it. I feel like most people in the 3M fandom take the easy way out with Athos/d'Artagnan and Aramis/Porthos (which I'm a huge fan of in the BBC series, but just cannot see it happening in the Dumas verse) and while I can understand that, I genuinely think Athos/Aramis makes SO much more sense (plus makes a perfect OT3 with Mme de Chevreuse!!!).

Opposites attract ship:

Snufkin/Moomin, Eddie/Chrissy (maybe Carlos/Rodrigo too? they're a bit more complicated than just "opposites attract" to me tho)

Canon ship:

Ten/Rose and Aramis/Marie de Chevreuse) (what can I say, I'm a huge fan of the divorce arc <33 she doesn't even physically appear in the first book and they have 1,5 scene together throughout the entire trilogy - but the contrast between the way Aramis acts about her in 3M vs the cruel, horrible behaviour he exhibits towards her in VDB + her trying her best to ensure he gets executed in the end... it does things to me <333)

First ship:

Don Giovanni/Leporello. well, I used to halfheartedly ship others before but this was the first ship that I truly went INSANE about when I was like 13.

Cursed ship:

again. Alba/Domingo.

tagging: @revedebeatrice @smile-at-the-stars @notyouraveragejulie @carlodivarga-s @donnaimmaculata @bozda-dom @verdiesque @girlscarpia have fun! or don't...... 👉👈

13, 14, 19, 25? 🌟

13. How was your birthday this year?

awesome :) my birthday coincided perfectly with the release of the barbie movie so i got to see it with all my friends and family while dressed as barbies and then literally play barbies with everyone after. watching my grandma and grandpa play barbie bachelor might be one of the highlights of my entire life.

14. Favorite book you read this year?

well we did re-read all of trc and some of the dreamer trilogy i don't think it counts as books i read this year though since i've already read them... i really liked the inseparables by simone de beauvoir which i bought in venice as reading material for the plane but it was too good to put down and actually very short so i read it all before we even left. i also just read pregnant butch by a.k. summers and it was hilarious.

19. What’re you excited about for next year?

parenting <333 i'm literally so fucking hyped for it. i'm also pumped for my sister's wedding and to meet her baby. i'm excited to work on our video game some more and get back to work at my actual job and see how fast i can get fit again after having a baby and to drink alcohol again :D

25. Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one

yandere-kun my beloved <3 he's got family trauma, obsessive/possessive/manipulative tendencies, bad coping skills, emotional detachment, slutty behavior and a knife. you can fix him ;)

i <3 u, thank u for indulging me

12, 20, 22!

(answered 12 here!)

20. What was your most anticipated release? Did it meet your expectations?

Nona the Ninth my BELOVED..... did it meet my expectations? Yes, forever, YES... I can't believe Tamsyn Muir interrupted her regularly-scheduled trilogy to write a 500 page interlude For Me, Specifically, that was All About my favorite pair of side characters and their arc together. Sixth House number one always in my heart <333 Also it gave us a whole bunch of answers I was desperate for re: the OG Lyctors pre-Resurrection so basically I couldn't have asked for anything more honestly

22. What’s the longest book you read?

I haven't gone back and checked page counts on everything, but I imagine it would HAVE to be Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by a long ways... that book is a monster! I can't recommend it highly enough enough, though; if it didn't have the handicap of having to compete with Nona it would easily have been my favorite of the year

[end-of-year book ask: send me a number!]

i had to run through the worse rain ive seen in a while and got into the room 30 minutes late but. theydies & gentlethem this was one of The Only Movies Ever

So. My friend Matt had me read a series and now I'm obsessed<3

The "Age Of Darkness" trilogy is absolutely wonderful!!! I made it through the second book so far, just finished it last night and I cannot WAIT to get to school on Monday so I can check out the final book.

I feel so connected to all the characters. Ephyra and Beru?? Cute sister moments and gut wrenching sad moments that made me SO UPSET at the end of book two. Jude and Anton?? I loved them on their own, but they are so cute together omg!!!! Hassan?? I think he's a little boring and honestly makes me really angry at times for his utter lack of thinking in certain situations, but still good because I can tell he's trying to make the best decisions for his country.

And all the side characters!!!!!! Evander my beloved!!!<333 I really hope he shows up in the final book, I loved him so much in this one!!! He is my favorite flavor of eccentric!!! The Nameless Woman is a wonderfully mysterious character!! She does so much more in the second book than the first and I cannot wait to see what happens with her in the final book because she gets set up as a REALLY important character at the end of book two. KHEPRI MY BELOVED!!!!!!<3333333 Oh my god Hassan is so boring at times in my opinion but his love interest??? BADASS WOMAN!!!!!!

ALSO CANON GAY PEOPLE!!!! CANON GAY MAIN CHARACTERS!!!! CANON GAY CHARACTERS THAT ARE INTEGRAL TO THE PLOT!!! IT'S WONDERFUL!!! THE REPRESENTATION IS SO WELL DONE!!!!

Matt hasn't read book two and I refuse to scream about it here because I need you all to read this absolutely wonderful series. I have been sucked into the world and I am so excited to read the last book!!!!!!!

Oh you have to share your set for the criminal minds cast, I gotta know

AHHHHH YAYYYYY I WAS SO HOPING TO GET AN ASK ABOUT CRIMINAL MINDS!!!! ty, maura!!!! <333

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)

derek morgan mY BELOVED!!!!!!!! (side note: if i could choose any celebrity to meet, i would choose shemar moore bc his smile would surely add ten years—AT LEAST—to my life)

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)

honestly rossi alksjdlskjd he reminds me of my gramps. purely in the face, although they don't really look all that alike... but i guess he reminds me more of my gramps than anyone else i've ever seen on this earth so lasdlsakj. anyway, he's just a really freaking cool grandpa character, and i love him a whole freaking lot <3333333

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)

alex blake, my beloved <3 i was so sad when she left the show. but happy for her character 🥲

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)

omg okay emily prentiss when she left to work at interpol for a while. every time they brought her up or she was in an episode i was like AHHHHHHHH IT IS SHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (it goes derek, rossi, then emily for me <3)

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)

SPENCER REID. let me give him a hUG

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)

omg my first thought was hotch, but then i was like alskjdaslkjd i'd be too scared. but maybe gideon. or luke. yessss probably luke. bc he's pretty, but he's also playful and also kind and non-threatening askjdlaskj

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)

FREAKING GEORGE FOYET (although oh my goodness oh my gosh???? one of THE best arcs in all of criminal minds. criminal minds really knew how to do major arcs with excellent filler episodes. i miss it)

send me a fandom (or a sw movie, show, trilogy, etc)!!

The BnT trilogy for the send me a fandom thing?

❥ The first character I first fell in love with: the b in bill stands for beloved <333 ❥ The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: i guess ted??? it wasn’t that i didn’t like him; i just didn’t like him As much as bill for a second but i now adore him with my whole heart ❥ The character everyone else loves that I don’t: good question. it’s not that i don’t like her per se but i do believe most like missy more than i do bshjsbshj ❥ The character I love that everyone else hates: idk if the fandom hates him necessarily but i do really love death and see little content for him (idk maybe that’s just from me keeping my circle tight) ❥ The character I used to love but don’t any longer: i don’t Think there’s anyone. maybe deacon Slightly but that’s just me disliking his ftm characterization and preferring his ea characterization + the potential he had ❥ The character I would totally smooch: bill, ted, OR the princesses. living my bisexual truth ❥ The character I’d want to be like: You already know this but it devastates me that i am not mr winter or any of his characters (aka. Bill) ❥ The character I’d slap: captain logan on god ❥ A pairing that I love: bill/ted <333 ❥ A pairing that I despise: i don’t Think i have one??? 

hii leah!! hope you’re having a good day💕💕what are your favourite comfort movies? also, are you an avid re-reader of books, or is that a rare instance for you? (and if you like re-reading, which book do you find yourself coming back to most often, and do you feel your thoughts on it have changed since the first time you read it?)

hiii lovely i hope you’re having a wonderful day as well! i enjoyed mine very much :) my comfort movies are any of the chronicles of narnia installments, anne of green gables (1985), the parent trap, and regrettably the pjo movies LOL

i do reread pretty often when it comes to favorites but it depends. if something is super heavy or dense i find it hard to reread so i just let it settle and ruminate a bit, but if it’s a light favorite or something quick i’ll reread a ton!

the book i come back to the most is for sure the trouble is a friend of mine trilogy by stephanie tromly (i post about it all the time because i am simply obsessed) it’s a quick and compelling read, and the characters are so beloved that i miss hearing their stories! and i notice a new background detail or foreshadowing or connections to the mystery that makes it a story that ages like fine wine <333
