#i'm always at the airport

[royedismyaesthetic]

I'm at the airport, and it just came to me that I should write a modern au where Roy and Ed meet at an airport. Roy would be headed to New York, and Ed would be headed overseas to Germany, and both of their flights would get canceled due to an unforeseen storm. They have to sleep at the airport and wait for their flights to be rebooked. In the meantime, they go on a series of dates at the airport (or just one long date), and they fall in love, but eventually have to go their separate ways.

I'll figure out more of the details later...

I followed you because you share great George stuff and I love George but you are so cruel and just downright offensively rude to Lewis that I can't follow you anymore.

didn't even say a single word about that guy but okay.

a large amount of time I've been spending on -untitled undefined scope original fiction project- since the last time I posted about it has been trying to develop the protagonist concept I came up with last summer or whatever into like, a character that would feel real and era appropriate.

it's fun research to do. naturally a lot of the details I assigned to her are things that I already think are cool, so it's been a lot of fun trying to trace her traits back through the relatively recent past, getting reminded of how much things have changed, or where the gaps in my intuition are, and then doing a flurry of reading to get a sense for exactly how someone like her and the people around her could have happened and what her life was probably like leading up to her present day. hopefully this results in some good good verisimilitude.

every new gay person i meet thinks they're being funny and original when i tell them i like hockey/sports in general and they're like "um... why 😝" like goddamn not only are you reinforcing negative stereotypes you can't even come up with a new joke to do it. do better

gt my heart, lionheart is insanely good and im now up to the triwizard tournament so i can't stalk your blog to read everything you've ever said about your work YET (but i will, i want to know every detail about your writing process and choices for characters and everything else; for now im enjoying author's notes) and well, i just wanted to say, thank you for the visuals, cause today i woke up from a lionheart dream - castle adventure with the lh-four, never wanted to be 15 again before lol

You're very welcome, and thank you for the kind words! (Or perhaps I should apologize — being 15 again sounds like quite the trial, even if you are in a magical castle, and perhaps especially so then. Certainly Draco's got mixed feelings about it.)

as sun tzu once said in art of war, "you can't wear dirty shoes on an airplane, it's disrespectful to the sky, and possibly also the flight attendants, depending on how dirty the shoe is. wait, how dirty are we talking? let me see these dirty shoes. yeah, that's the stuff"

Just out of random curiosity, feel free to ignore this if you want, what are some of the random few 1920s dresses you like?

This Lanvin robe de style:

(robes de style in general- those dresses, usually for evening, that had very full skirts. sometimes even over little abbreviated panniers, which is lightly hilarious for the 1920s, I think)

this late 20s Worth evening gown:

(those chiffon gores are a really interesting design element. I used this one on a moodboard for a hypothetical 1920s Romeo and Juliet production I costume-designed in college)

I am forced to concede that opera coats are pretty cool, like this blue velvet one sold on 1stDibs some years back:

they also had some pretty cool shoes. these are by Ignazio Pluchino, from 1925:

And I don't totally hate all Deco jewelry. I'm especially partial to this filigree style of ring:

("Hey, Marzi, doesn't that kind of look like the ring that a dear antique dealer friend gave you, which you accidentally left on the sink in an airport bathroom in 2018?")

This was really the most painful video I've ever edited. I'm sorry about the heartbreaking song, but I needed to get it out before I can edit something less crushing. I'm still not over it (and probably never will be) but I hope you like this nonetheless. This is just a side blog btw (@movrings). You can also watch the video here on YT. I would love for you to leave a comment ♥ Also huge thank you goes out to @scratchybeardsweetmouth!

Not sure there's much worse than landing in Heathrow. Or any English airport for that matter. Just gross, crowded and disorganised places istg. Every single time I'm at Heathrow the plane is delayed leaving, or there's issues with the gate bridge thingy if I'm landing. I actually don't get how it's every single fucking time. Obviously my feelings are going to be partly because of not wanting to be back in England. I'm happy here normally, love it here sometimes even. But coming back here from Finland is the worst

idk if this problematic in some way but i keep hope for a free palestine alive by being mad

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

I think I understand Antigone and I'm making this no one else's problem but my own. I can deal with my own devices even if those devices always break. I'm not trying to complain. I'm not complaining. I know this has to be right but I'm still here laying on the couch. world's smallest violin or whatever they say. if you go know you go as one beloved although you go without your mind.
