What's your favourite Marina song? :O
Oh god. I think it usually depends on my mental state. If it's good, it'll be whatever scratches my brain most in the moment; if it's bad, it'll probably be whatever has the closest lyrics to what I'm going through. But she's one of the few artists where my favourite song keeps rotating. I think I could make an argument for almost everything in Electra Heart having been my favourite at one point or another.
I first found her music through Oh No! as a kid, which I loved because it had a really punchy instrumental (and Marina has a really unique vocal style compared to most artists). Also it's only gotten more and more relatable as time's go on so. IIRC the music video also had a really unique comic book aesthetic to it. More recently I've found that Froot, Hypocrates, Girls and Hermit the Frog (don't laugh at me) are others I really like for their instrumentals, even though I don't connect with their lyrics as much.
I think the next one I really liked was Valley of the Dolls. I may be biased though in that though, since it was paired with the visuals from Fantasia (and ended with the first bit of Clair de Lune). I don't personally connect with the song's subject matter that much, but I appreciate that it's rather unique, and I think Marina gives it the surreal melancholy it deserves. I also think Sex Yeah and Obsession now fall into that category.
I remember loving Teen Idle when I was in-between secondary school and university, on meds that weren't working, having my life completely collapse around me, and generally feeling cheated out of growing up. Recently I've been really into Rootless, since I've been a bit disconnected working on a summer project all on my own (and I'm kind of scared on what's going to happen to me after uni). I don't know if I'd call it my favourite overall, but the pre-chorus in that is one of the best I think I've ever seen. The meter and the instrumental make such a grand declaration, like you're a leaf being ripped away in a storm.
I've got a soft spot for Buy the Stars, because it's got the perfect range for me to try vocal training in.

Do you have a favourite flower? :o
Somewhat embarrassingly, no. As per my last ask, I don't think I touch grass enough. Also I have hayfever that has slowly gotten worse as I've grown up.
I do occasionally draw flowers before, but I'm not super picky as to which one is my favourite.
I think I do have a favourite plant in the drosera (aka the sundew), just because carnivorous plants are cool (and the mechanism captures bugs with is so unique).

random ask as per your request: when is the last time you saw a cool rock? and on a scale of 1-10, how cool was the rock and why?
I don't know if this counts, but I saw a piece of waste glass that looked like a rock in a museum recently. It was mostly black/dark colours, but also shiny, and with white cracks. I would say it was a 6/10 on the cool-looking scale. I would give it a 7/10 on the cool-context scale, as it was cool to see how pollution has been a problem throughout the decades (and what waste glass looks like!)
This was a mildly scary ask to receive because it makes me realise I really don't touch grass very often. I swear I do keep an eye on my outside surroundings; it's just that I tend to notice city infrastructure and engineering things more than naturey things.

Always intriguing when you have characters from unrelated media where it's clear they're the same guy, except one of them has a better writer.

Like I think this is genuinely the first time I've seen a tech-related plotline from the 2000's still stand up today. holy shit

I feel like this should be a bigger deal but there's not enough buildup to his characterisation to justify this

his parents just didn't hear him say that? while they heard jazz talking about that? I can't remember if his parents have found out by this point or not?

I like the detail that the balloon didn't set off Danny's breath. It was a mistake on his part which Vlad took advantage of. very nice
