I think I'm just some kind of secret magnet for angst (fictional). Because every time I pick something up thinking "oh this will be fun" it always ends with me a sobbing mess on the floor.

Example: I pick up a copy of The Outsiders at my uncle's house to read because I'm bored out of my mind and I think it will be fun. Cue me spending the next couple of weeks in a haze internally screaming "JOHNNY AND DALLY WHY NO"

I start watching Star Trek: TOS thinking "oh look fun silly sci-fi show ha ha" and then for a month I just wander around going "JIM AND SPOCK WHY DIDN'T THEY GOT SEPARATED UNTIL THE VERY END THEY WEREN'T TOGETHER UNTIL THE VERY END WHY"

I start listening to Welcome to Night Vale because "ha ha silly podcast about a weird town lol" and then I'm sitting in class thinking "CECIL AND CARLOS THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH AND THEN THE HORRORS COME FOR THEM AND AUGH"

I read the Iliad for school thinking "cool I've never read this before eager to check it out" and then I'm just like, for the rest of the semester "ACHILLES AND PATROCLUS MY SAD DEAD GREEK GAY BOYS WHY"

I go look at Good Omens and think "oh look silly show/book about angels and demons and the Apocalypse. Cool I'll check it out" and I am still in the throes of "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND AZIRAPHALE AND CROWLEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND BUT THEY NEVER TALKED ABOUT IT THEY NEVER TALKED ABOUT IT AND NOW THEY'RE SEPARATED AND I HATE EVERYTHING EVER NOW YES LITERALLY EVERYTHING"

What is wrong with me. Why do I like pain.

Should I:

*Looks at Aziraphale*

Me: I think he should get to murder someone. As a treat.

"Hello darkness, my old friend"

Izzy Hands as the only human in a muppets film is one of the best descriptions I've seen of a character's energy

Are there any books out there that are about gay medieval knights. Or gay medieval anything, I just think it would be awesome to read about (if done right).

The cutest, dumbest little guy and his besotted boyfriend (I am talking about them both simultaneously)

Re reading A Study in Scarlet and thinking about thin haggard nosy John Watson and young manic showoff Sherlock Holmes

Also got very emotional about the idea that Holmes has bad hair because he doesn’t see why he should care and dislikes barbers (being touched by a stranger!) so Watson cuts it to look more distinguished so Lestrade will take him more seriously

I was so happy when I saw your GO X Hitchhiker's fic in the GO community! I just finished Mostly Harmless and was wondering if anyone had written a crossover (I even asked on my side blog but no luck lol). It was very well written and captured the tone of both pieces of media perfectly ❤️ If you write more of it, I'm def interested :)

I'm so glad you liked it! As of now, I haven't really thought about writing a sequel, but maybe I will now, since I know there's interest out there! I've only finished the first of the Hitchhiker's books, so I'll have to do some reading first, maybe, if there's interest in expanding past the first book! Thank you so much for reaching out!

I can't believe there was a time when I didn't like old/middle-aged romance...

Me: *Pointing at Crowley with my mechanical pencil* AND NOW IT'S TIME TO PINE, FUCKER!

[ivanhoe1820]

uh uhhhh

I really like your art :333

(Also got any reanimator fic recs I need some)

hello!! Thank you!! DO I HAVE REANIMATOR FIC RECS. OH BOY. Yes I do!!! I read a LOT of fic so thank you for asking this, you definitely asked the right guy (all fics linked)

ANYTHING by @teamingmate @godlizzza and @friendcrumbs , all of their reani fics are incredible but I have to highlight:

The couple down the street (classic of all classics) and the lord of death hill (which really appealed to my gothic lit and Jane Austen loving self) by Godlizza

What wakes alone in ice (chills, literal chills) and for parts (the pulpy breakup and getting back together fic we all need, it’s so good) by teamingmate

The dead dad Cain series, (the third fic was gifted to me :( this series is so close to my heard idk how many times I’ve reread) cicadas and locusts, and the shrieking of innumerable gibbons (so trippy, I stayed up till four reading this it’s so good) by friendcrumbs (okay damnit (the heart of man is) unbearable to hold as well. It ruined me.)

Other favourites of mine are:

Naturally affected by little_bugger (oh my god, reread this one constantly)

Dreams in the necromancer house by @nothingenoughao3 (another classic, WOW.)

It's looking like a limb torn off by por_queeee (getting together, just really nice)

Five Grave Mistakes to Avoid When Body Snatching by theprincessofdenial (so funny, another classic)

Determined Heart and Resolved Will (Or, The Son of Reanimator) by SupposedToBeWriting (I was hesitant at first but oh my god. Incredible. I was GRIPPED!)

Just realised this was a LOT… and I have more… anyone who wants recs come to me I will provide but anyway hope you enjoy!!!

I want to meet David Tennant but at the same time I know that if I even saw him from afar I'd just combust on the spot and there would be no way on Earth that I would have the courage to go up and ask for an autograph or anything.

I FINISHED READING BRIDESHEAD REVISITED.

Guys I love this book.

And I will believe till my dying day that Charles only loved Julia because she reminded him of Sebastian. Bro basically admits it anyway.

Also, controversial opinion her, but Charles was kinda an asshole, at least to me.

Just started reading Brideshead Revisited. And I must say Sebastien and his doomed beautiful gay youth charms have worked just as well on me as they did on Charles Ryder.

Every time I read anything about, like, a post season 2 reunion of You Know Who and, you know, the author decides to make Crowley make Aziraphale sweat a little before taking him back, I'm like "nah."

Like, have you seen Crowley? Don't you know what our favorite fail-boy-not-boy is like? Aziraphale would just have to show up, say the first letter of literally any word on Earth, and Crowley would collapse into his arms with a sob and never leave. There is no way on this Earth or off it where Crowley would ever make Aziraphale sweat for anything.

HE'S READING A WELCOME TO NIGHTVALE BOOK.

FUCK THAT'S PERFECT. HE'D EMPHASIS WITH CECIL SO SO SO MUCH...

here’s a gift for @thegoodomensdumpster because they’re sick and deserve it. also they like 1) beautifully fat aziraphale, 2) hairy az and crowley, 3) unadultered fluff, so i tried to put all that in

they also like jokes so here : crowley invented Starbucks’ employees miswritting your name on your coffee cup and now everytime he goes there they found a new way to fuck up his name
