going insane thinking about the harrow and palamedes friendship. harrow, who has never met another necromancer her age forming a bizarro 3D chess rivalry while pal worries about her safety at every possible turn. harrow, who is up to her eyebrows in paranoia and secrecy, trusting the sixth house with gideon unconscious and hurt, letting them into the ninth house quarters unsupervised. if “i cannot conceive of a universe without you in it” is goth for i love you, “death first to vultures and scavengers” has got to be goth for i love you (platonic). pal’s first reaction when harrow comes into his bubble in the river is to scoop her up in a hug, and at this point she doesn’t remember anything about him because cutting out all her memories of gideon is impossible without cutting out memories of the sixth, but she still makes him a skelehand to inhabit anyway. when harrow’s memories are finally whole, she tells dulcinea she couldn’t face pal knowing that his pen pal girlfriend died on her account, but the next time she “faces” him, palamades’s soul is in someone else’s body and harrow’s body is full of nona’s soul. he spends six months protecting and caring for harrow’s body (and nona obv), believing in the possibility of bringing her back to it the same way cam believed in him. “god, do you know i miss harrow terribly.” and by the time harrow comes back to her body at the very end of ntn, pal is gone forever, fully pauled. the last time harrow and palamades see each other as their complete selves is in canaan house, alive and unlyctored. two of the smartest and loneliest people in the solar system meet each other in the worst of circumstances and spend the rest of the story dancing around each other as fragments of themselves, trying to care about each other in the interim but never fully meeting like they did the first time. a friendship made almost entirely of missing the other person. “do you know i miss harrow terribly.” god. i need to lie down
well this is certainly a first. two people have been using one of my (seemingly only tangentially related) text posts to have a whole back and forth personal conversation in the tags for the past hour. they’re reblogging my post from each other over and over with a new message in the tags each time.
lol I remember when I used to have a Star Wars mutual network. Now I’m part of a tmbs mutual network, a small part of the tig mutual network, and am currently building a KOTLC mutual network bc I started rereading the books and going re-insane about another kids book series. How do y’all put up with me???
CONTENT WARNING for weight loss (a percentage number) and mentions of throwing up
In other news I'm waiting impatiently for a GI appointment to tell them "hi I lost 15% of my body weight in six months and I throw up more often than once or twice a year now so can you please fucking listen and do something this time"
Don’t be afraid to dream. Found this screenshot from June 6, 2014. All I wanted at the time was to visit London. I thought it would be SO COOL to see where they filmed Sherlock. I knew it was so unrealistic. My family barely leaves the state, let alone travels to other countries.
Fast forward to 5 years and 11 days later on June 15, 2019 when I took this picture in person while I was in London…
I’m sorry but the obsession some of the people in my this fandom have with Hannah is weird
you don’t have to like her by any means, but know that if you’re stalking her socials all the time and making comments on everything she posts in hopes of getting blocked, you’re super lame and weird sorry please get a life !!!!
Just wanted to say thank you for the lovely tags on the Fox and the Wolf art. I've been applying for a mortgage all afternoon and my brain is leaking out my ears. It was nice to come find those tags.
You’re thanking me?! Ahhhhhhh!! Omg I want to thank you!! I can’t believe you used your incredible talent to create such a stunning piece of art for my fanfic! & not even that, but you created a completely unique and creative AU for LIAB!
I wish I could rant even more in the tags to show how floored I am by your talent! I love what you drew so much I think it’s so wonderful I can’t even find enough words! I hope your mortgage applications don’t completely melt your brain… it was not my favorite activity i must say.
<3 I hope you enjoy the rest of the fic (at least of what I have finished)
Ok bright side of having to stay in the hotel: I really like their body wash so I’m gonna buy some to replace the one I have been using that just changed it’s formula (again) so that I don’t like it anymore
I have also realized how horrible this hotel is for people who are menstruating so I’m gonna write and email the company about it with my extra time today.
Sparing you the heavy details, I'm going on a trip soon and I was thinking "how will I watch the largely forgotten science fiction TV show Quantum Leap, that I have been watching at home with my DVDs? how will I watch this when I am not at my house?"
