Make your room like an old library! keep it dimly lit, have books in every corner, have a few marble busts, invite the ghost of a victorian woman who died in a tragic accident to be your roommate!

what are some lyrics from evermore that you would associate with marecal?

ANON!! Come here I want to give you a hug!!❤️❤️ THANK YOU FOR THIS ASK *cracks knuckles* I’m picking only the ones that hit the hardest🙃:

Eyes like sinking ships/ On waters so inviting (...) I almost jump in I don't like anticipating my face in a red flush/ I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch/ Everybody wants you (Gold rush)

When Mare finds out Cal is a prince and the Queenstrial, that first reaction of being intimidated by everything it entails, but still feeling that pull to someone who feels so unreal and is considered the “golden son”  

Wait for the signal and I'll meet you after dark Show me the places where the others gave you scars (Willow)

Secret dance practice sessions in the dark that evolve into intimacy during the war. The scars they are left with, mental and physical, that they can only share with each other.

Happiness is literally the post King’s Cage angst song but especially when it says:  No one teaches you what to do/ When a good man hurts you/ And you know you hurt him, too. AND this verse feels so much like when Mare leaves Norta at the end of WS I can’t even listen to it:  In our history, across our great divide/ There is a glorious sunrise/ Dappled with the flickers of light/ From the dress I wore at midnight, leave it all behind.

Finally, Evermore is Broken Throne. Like, it’s so them, suffering PTSD, recovering from the war, staying in the Monfort cabin, finding some semblance of peace and home together.

And when I was shipwrecked (Can't think of all the cost) I thought of you (All the things that will be lost now) In the cracks of light (Can we just get a pause?) I dreamed of you (To be certain we'll be tall again) (If you think of all the costs) It was real enough (Whether weather be the frost) To get me through (Or the violence of the dog days) (Out on waves being tossed) I swear (Is there a line that we could just go cross?) You were there And I was catching my breath Floors of a cabin creaking under my step And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar This pain wouldn't be for Evermore

It’s a song about being broken but still believing you can create a “Happily ever after” from the ruble, and there’s nothing more accurate for them.

 I need to go lie down for a few hours and suffer 🤧

Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. And, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than the atoms in your right hand. It really is the most poetic thing I know about the universe: we are all stardust. You wouldn't be here if stars hadn't exploded because the elements (the carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, all the things that matter for evolution) weren't created at the beginning of time, they were created in stars. So forget Jesus. Stars died so you could live.

despite what capitalist society tells us, success is so much more than financial & academic. success is helping people. success is making people happy. success is going to bed with a smile on your face. success is love. success is the bonds we form with other people. there is so much more succeeding than money and academia. you’re not a failure just because you don’t make six figures or have a degree from harvard or oxford. there is so much more to life than what we are told.

bring back Georgian-era sentence structure. fuck this single clause Hemingway bullshit; I want to string the reader along for pages, to link, however disparate, an endless array of actions using every form of punctuation I can imagine - even those I rarely use - and generally be as incoherent as possible (though it is to be said that this is for internet and casual use, and not for increasing the impenetrability of research papers, a far less noble goal than the one I proposed).

[queeniriscygnet]

Yesss

I have the inspiration to write a Marecal (with a little urequited Mareven on the side) fantasy/apocaliptic AU. Would anybody be interested in reading something like that?

In the midst of all of this people gloss over who filmed George, a young black girl named Darnella Frazier who is traumatized and been bullied ever since. Here is the description which was written by her mother and the GoFundMe is run by her:
