THIS IS PEAK STILES AND ERICA!!!!! stiles is the one doing the mixing and doing his cute lil squinty eyes thing.. and erica just there smirking at the camera and eating .. maybe answering a text from derek (“me and stiles busy. Dont disturb us. and dont try and look for us.”) and then sharing the drink ❤️ stiles def adds in some wolfsbane for erica LMFAO or makes a separate one off cam for her

tagged by @obeetlebeetle to share my top 9 books of 2023 or 9 books from my tbr list for 2024.

i think i already did a top ten books of 2023 so i will resist the urge to stephen floridapost and instead just do the nine books that i'm currently most excited about and most intending to read specifically This Year

the recently discovered to be accessible to me big three that i'm So excited to acquire from the library are:

The Works of Thomas Kyd: Edited From the Original Texts; With Introduction, Notes, and Facsimiles by Frederick S. Boas

Beyond The Spanish tragedy : a study of the works of Thomas Kyd by Lukas Earne

Thomas Kyd: facts and problems by Arthur Freeman

um. it's been long enough since i finished my thesis that i can be excited to read about him again i guess. and i never got to read any of his translations or other stuff besides spanish tragedy so this trio is going to be huge for fans of me being annoying on tumblr dot com.

the books that i've started previously and then not finished for one reason or another and have emotionally committed to actually finishing this year are:

The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas

If On A Winter's Night A Traveler by Italo Calvino

Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb

The Body in Pain by Elaine Scarry

and then my currently reading which i sure hope to finish before they're returned to the library or i get bored are:

Exordia by Seth Dickinson. Reading this due to how it's by Seth Dickinson and I'm in too deep at this point not to

Call Me Ishmael Tonight: A Book of Ghazals by Agha Shahid Ali. Reading this as a direct rec from a friend who knows more about poetry than anyone I know and so has taken on the heroic task of trying to recommend me things within my elaborate parameters

and finally as a bonus because i forgot it was supposed to be 9 not 10, my most anticipated confirmed release (sorry tamsyn):

There's Always This Year: On Basketball and Ascension by Hanif Abdurraqib

mostly lately i've just been doing a lot of sort of floating around and reading whatever strikes my interest at the time that i'm looking for something to read and going down nonfiction rabbit holes so i don't really have a defined tbr but. this is what i've got going on :]

i will tag @frogndtoad @storybook-souls @diyemo @katiefratie @steveebarnes @pearlpool @enragedtiefling @summonstarspawn and anyone who wants to do it i wanna see what people are reading :)

Sandstripe - Warrior

Strict, great teacher

Bio below:

Named after his deceased uncle, Sandshade. Had a small crush on Raggedburn when they were both kits, but became upset with her as they got older over a small disagreement. He took steps to put distance between them, and rejected Raggedburn in order to pursue Raggedburn's brother, Pearlpool. But when Pearlpool was summoned by Starclan, Sandstripe was left to reflect on his feelings. After some time, he came to appreciate how much comfort Raggedburn had always brought him. He was also embarrassed to admit that Pearlpool's death must have been infinitely more painful for Raggedburn than it had been for him. The more perspective he gained on the situation, the more embarrassed he felt for his narrowminded and shallow attitude. Sandstripe wanted to reconnect with Raggedburn, but he lacked the confidence to do anything more than cover himself in the shecats favorite herbs. Eventually, after nearly a year of distance between them, Sandstripe took the opportunity to brazenly flirt with Raggedburn during a patrol. To his great frustration, Raggedburn's responses were merely polite and casually friendly. However, they did prompt Raggedburn to approach him to finally bring up the state of their relationship. Sandstripe was too infuriated to do anything but declare that the two of them should be mates, and he counted himself lucky that Raggedburn enthusiastically agreed. Was left traumatized after his sister, Loudstripe, sacrificed herself to save him from a rogue ambush. His hatred for rogues would only grow stronger after Raggedburn was also killed by rogues. After these experiences, Sandstripe dedicated himself to his role as a warrior. He took pride in maintaining high standards for himself and his clanmates, and was always the first to remind cats of the dangers that awaited them outside camp. Although he had several suitors, he rejected them all and was content to wait for the day that he would join Raggedburn in Starclan. After many years of a quiet, and somewhat lonely, life in Marineclan, a heart attack finally reunited him with Raggedburn.
