hohoho, tagged by @joziokowalski, thankie

last song: I Wanna Be Your Slave by Måneskin. i don't listen to music much these days, and when i do, it's the same ~10 last songs from my playlist, which include tgcf soundtrack, two Måneskin songs and two songs by Dead Blonde with russian '90s vibes?? папин пистолет в кармане, шуба, плащ и сапоги — вот и всё моё наследство, я принцесса из тайги 😎😎😎

current book stack:

Don't Shoot The Dog by Karen Pryor (i think so, at least, bc the title of the russian translation says 'don't growl at the dog' lol). started reading it several days ago and haven't gone further than like a dozen pages or so. i'm bad with books that aren't tgcf or tgcf fanfiction right now. anyway, it's about dog training and operant learning in general

All Creatures Great And Small by James Herriot. it's a collection of short stories. it's going really slowly. idk why, it has animals and veterinary, i'm like really interested in those...

Служебная собака (i. e. 'service dog') by Leonid Krushinsky. it's a soviet dog training manual. i haven't touched it in several months tho. this one and the Herriot's book just sit in a corner of our workplace in case i happen to want to read something during my break...

i also have several books i'd started reading on my phone, but i guess it's safe to say i'm not likely to finish them. those include A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (i didn't like what i'd read), Good Omens and russian translation of The Silmarillion. but yeah. not going to happen anytime soon...

by the way, i'm going to get my printed copy of the 4th tgcf book so i'll probably be rereading it for the third time ✌️

last movie: hmmmm @joziokowalski showed me The Hound of the Baskervilles on the new year eve

last show: probably that 4th tgcf rewatch with my cat lol. before that... the 3rd tgcf rewatch with @joziokowalski... before that maybe Jeeves and Wooster with ... ... ... you guessed it, @joziokowalski ; ) at this point she can probably keep better track on the series i've watched lol

current obsession: Heaven Official's Blessing aka tgcf, if you haven't guessed already. it's been uhhh nine months or more?.. gonna move to mdzs at some point but not sure when lol

your url and general good taste makes me want to ask you if you know any good dostojevskij tv/film adaptions?

Why thank you! While I appreciate your trust in my artistic taste, I know almost nothing about Dostoevsky tv/film adaptations - I have such a strong attachment to the books that I just never had much interest in adaptations. The most that I've seen is a few brief bits of what I think was a Russian tv series adaption of the The Brothers K that @crystallllines showed me a while back, but I haven't seen nearly enough of it to speak on its quality - maybe she can tell you whether it's good or not?

And while I can't recall anyone else that I know on here vouching for the quality of a Dostoevsky screen adaptation, maybe @dostoyevsky-official or @karamazovdmitri would know? If anyone that I haven't mentioned has some recommendations and wants to chime in please do so!

Since I don't want to leave you empty-handed, one Russian literature screen adaptation that I can absolutely recommend is Sergei Bondarchuk's 1967 film series adaptation of War and Peace. The length can be pretty intimidating, but it gets as close as I could imagine to really capturing the feel of the novel. It's an incredible feat of cinema and genuinely like nothing else I've ever watched.

another installment of my tumblr nostalgia blogging – the fact that @karamazovdmitri introduced me to one of my absolute favorite classical music pieces, schubert’s piano trio no. 2, by way of recommending me a french rap song that was based on it.

“Assistant?!” Will’s sudden, loud voice made a few guests turn our direction. I, too, followed suit, staring between them both. Ace nodded quickly. I didn’t know where she got that idea. “Is he holding you hostage? Do you need me to help you out? I’ve never known him to willingly have another person around him!” 

“You would be surprised, Will…” I muttered under my breath. Ace laughed again, and somehow, I felt a gentle wash of comfort fall over me. It was just like before.

“No, no! No need for anything so impulsive. I’ve only known him for- oh, what day was it? About two years now. He’s been helping me decide what to do about my eye,” and she tapped her eyepatch with a neatly painted fingernail. “Lost my sight in a firework accident.”

karamazovdmitri replied to your post “bands need to get better merch, im sorry bro but im not dropping $30...”

🌻 + hyacinthe hihi

hehehe this is trickier cause i have to avoid spoilers and well... the whole story is about figuring out who hyacinthe is... but honestly that doesnt mean ALL of it is spoilery -__- they just have their secrets u know... like all normal people do... nothing weird about having secrets......

so they grew up w ves in the mountain right? back then they used to take care of a couple younger kids! they were basically his younger siblings theyd just hang together a lot and hyacinthe would go out of his way to be involved in the child raising tasks when he was old enough to help cook and clean and such. he was never an adult while living there so he never got to be a full on guardian to anyone but he def wouldve become one of those people w their door always open and soup on a fire and 7 kids at the table if hed stayed. or maybe then things wouldve happened to have him change that bit of his personality BUT ye... hyacinthe is an older sibling :]

also talking about when she was younger! shed mess w her hairstyle a lot so she was shown kinda young how to cut it properly cause there was no stopping her. so most often it was kinda uneven like, layered weirdly because she felt like cutting the back but not the front or vice-versa etc. and shed cut ves' hair too! she was the only one who ever cut ves' hair he would only ever ask her and no one else which is very 🥺 IDK theyre my ocs but it still gets me like 🥺🥺

mmm something thats kinda funny is their hair is like... i dont wanna call it filthy cause they do wash it but its like. they have a LOT of it and theyre digging up dirt very often (for gardening and such) and sometime they only wear one glove so its like.... sometime they have dirt in their hair and u just have to deal w it. and bugs naturally gravitate to them (not in a.. lice way just theyll be sitting in the grass for 5mn and now they have ladybugs on them) so its like mm... im not saying DONT touch their hair the front is prolly really soft cause its easier to maintain but their ponytail? you might find a frog in there

LIKE a big thing about them is that they choose to be nice and helpful but thats not their entire personality and especially in a context with no consequences they will often choose violence? they have NO guilt over choosing the "evil" options in videogames and such. if they played minecraft theyd pour lava over villages they ARE the 2nd side of claude's metaphorical coin so...... this might imply some things. but only in contexts where it doesnt harm anyone irl :] i have more fun facts but they get shown in Project im currently working on so itll have to wait 😏
