Tagged by @vampiricfruitcake thank you~, haven't done these in a while so it's nice -w-

Favourite colour: Deep dark red, purples, blue (..wait, do I like Gale partly because he's purple/blue themed?)

Last song: Thunder bringer from Epic the Musical 👌👌

Currently reading:

Just stab me now by Jill Bearup (i feel like I don't understand some of the political plot and I don't know if it's the feature of the meta narrative)

Descendant of the Crane by Joan He (about midpoint in it, more quiet than I thought but it's been good)

Heir to thorn and flame by Ben Alderson (possible trashy powerplay-lovetriangle romance between prince, servant pretending to be a prince and a dragon rider, I don't know yet, only on page 40.)

Sunbringer by Hannah Kaner (sequel to Godkiller which I really liked)

The last unicorn by Peter S. Beagle (it slowed down but language at points is so pretty and "have a taco." without explanation in a world it shouldn't be still cracks me up)

Fate be changed by Farrah Rochon (I flipflop being interested in continuing this)

On top of all of those, I have Song of silver, flame like night duology by Amelie Wen Zhao, Night hunt by Alexandra Christo, Bonesmith by Nicki Pau Preto, Counterpart by Elle Pyne, Mask of shadows by Linsey Miller and I'm afraid you've got dragons by Peter.S.Beagle waiting for me to read them.

Currently watching: My adventures with superman and rewatching second season of House slowly because I'm more nauseated by it than I was when I was younger. With the idea on getting to episodes I have never seen.

Currently craving: .....new sweet endhawks fanart? And Amphibia season 2 and 3 coming to Disney+. And Book of Bill and Reckoning of Roku coming out already.

Coffee or tea: Coffee, coffee in the morning and in the evening, but not after 21.

Tagging @vieraslaji, @commodorecliche and @fenrhi, but no pressure to do this :>

3 Ships Shepard X Garrus Vakarian - Friends to lovers babeyyyy. When I first entered the Inuyasha fandom I was an Inuyasha X Kagome person but fell down the Seshoumaru X Kagome ship hole when the fanfics I were finding interested me more. And let's go with Rogue X Gambit because I still get feral over that from when my uncle would recount their relationship to me growing up.

First Ship The first one I remember is Cloud X Tifa from Final Fantasy VII. And I'm in this one for life. Have I said I am such a friends to lovers sucker? It's a recurring theme.

Places to eat in London : Part 2

THE OLD BANK OF ENGLAND

Fleet Road, London

A photo similar to this basically led me to search up The Old Bank of England on google. It is probably the most curious courtyard I have ever seen because of the double-decker parked inside which, in fact, have tables inside for dining. Note that this is just a small area of the pub/restaurant. Th e inside of the old Law Court's branch of the old Bank of England has one of the most spectacular interior in all pubs of London and I am just so glad I stumbled upon this on Facebook.

To secure seats especially for a large group, it is always best to reserve a table during the evenings when the pub literally is swarmed. I have been here twice and the second one was in the middle of the day. I expected it to be almost empty but I was wrong. People from the neighbouring offices take their lunch breaks here coupled with day-drinking as well.

Since we were just here for the beer and the instagram photo-op. we just ordered one of their heritage beers, the Rivertown pils. And because we just had a huge dinner before this, we ordered just a few small appetisers. We got the KING PRAWNS PIL PIL, STICKY THAI CHICKEN BITES, AND COD GOUJONS. They were in small portions but very tasteful!

The interior of the Old Bank of England is massive and I am going to make a separate blog on this with all the gazillion of instagram photos I managed to take.

Book here www.oldbankofengland.com.

CHAI GUYS, COVENT GARDEN

Seven Dials Market, London

Not a place to eat but my friend, Sarjo, highly recommended this place for the best chai tea latte. She apparently went here last year and purchased one of their tea in tin cans and she decided to grab a different one this time around. We were so thirsty from all the walking so we got us iced chai tea lattes.

I really love how they really said it with confidence that they are the best chai in London but inserted the "probably" just to be down-to-earth. Haha.

This is me and my gorgeous friend, Sarjo, enjoying our chais. And, of course, a photo of us standing next to a cucumber-themed photobooth at Seven Dials that wasn't even functioning.

Click the photo below to order their chai tea for your next home-brew!

PRETO BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE, VICTORIA

Wilton Road, London

I haven't had Brazilian food before so when the idea came up, I was a little bit skeptical. My college friend really insisted that we go to this Brazilian buffet where they go around and serve freshly grilled meat in skewers. The idea sounded so good but I wasn't sure if I was up to it since I have been craving Chinese food at that time. But then when we got inside the restaurant, the vibe was on! The salads that were on display were so vibrant, the wide array of side dishes were five-star, and their beans with tender pork ribs was so incredible I could almost cry. That was probably my favorite! They kept on serving us grilled meat too so I was literally full to the brim in an instant. This was a no-brainer, it is one of the best buffets I have ever had in my entire life. Men with huge appetite should eat here (like my boyfriend lol).

I finally had to wave my white flag (or shall I say flipped my card to say NO to their delicious barbecued meat or known as "churrasco" in Brazil). They have this clever way of signalling the waiters to keep the meat coming with a card that say "More, Please" and of course says the opposite if you flip it. The next time I am coming to Preto for the Brazilian food buffet, I'll make sure I'll have the whole day to just sit and take it slow, skip meals before hand, and probably save the beans for last. :)

THE RUM KITCHEN, BRIXTON

Coldharbour, London

We walked into the restaurant and we were already greeted by a tables full of people of what seem to be extended families, group of friends, locals, patrons... all of them seem to be feeling really at home in The Rum Kitchen. But I can see why. The restaurant gives off such a home-y vibe. The music, the flavourful Carribean, and an order of cocktail during the ¨happy hour¨ are the key ingredients to an amazing food experience with friends and families.

Brixton is easily one of the places in London that they'd warn tourists about because of its reputation for having high crime rate and drug-related issues. But that was in the past. Brixton is one of London's revitalisation projects to recreate once more as a vibrant side of the town. The southern neighbourhood is still worth seeing though because of the food offers. And Brixton has an abundance of food products that cater to African culinary.

MIHBAJ, CAFÉ AND KITCHEN, PADDINGTON

Præd Street, London

There's nothing like ending the tour here in London with a full English breakfast. We were checked-in at a hotel in Paddington and we decided we didn't wanna walk kilometers to the best Google recommendation. We just had to find a breakfast place nearby. Mihbaj Cafe was a super cute corner for breakfast and catching up with an old friend.

Me and Andrei both got us two English breakfasts with sunny-side up eggs on sourdough, spiced sausages, mushroom, & homemade white beans (fasolia) in tomato sauce. We sat in a corner with our feet up, just chilling and enjoying the filtered light coming from above our heads. Get inspired and check out their instagram @mihbaj.

FairyLoot Unboxing

Reap What You Sow August 2023

I really love this box, it's very cohesive! The theme is "Reap What You Sow".

The featured book is "Bonesmith" by Nicki Pau Preto. The book sounds pretty interesting. It's described as "Gideon the Ninth meets Game of Thrones" which are two books I wanted to like but didn't. But it was the writing style I didn't like, so I'm hoping this one will work for me. The recoloured cover isn't as nice as the original, it's just a bit gloomy. And the foiling on the hardcase isn't very impressive. But there are some really incredible features - the full artwork endpapers are different at each end, and both are gorgeous. The dust jacket is reversible, and the alternative cover is really nice, I'm definitely going to be displaying that one instead. And best of all, the edges are amazing - they're full artwork, and match the cover!

The first item is a glass tumbler. I've got a smaller one of these, which I love, so I'll probably use this too. This one features a quote from "Belladonna".

The next item is a set of page tabs. These are inspired by "The Bone Season". These are really pretty, and they come on a handy snap-in ruler. Unfortunately it doesn't fit in my journal.

Next is a pair of bookends. These are inspired by "Gideon the Ninth". I didn't like the book, but I love the design of these bookends! And you can never have too many bookends, I've got like, ten sets, and I always need more.

Next is a set of metal straws. These have a skull theme. This is the one item I don't like, I just think reusable straws are icky. It's an OCD thing. We've had a few sets in recent boxes, and I've run out of people to give them to.

The last item is a sticker sheet. They have a gothic theme, and they'll be great in my planner around halloween.

This month's tarot cards are Wren and Julian, from "Bonesmith".

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

Pacific Rim meets The Handmaid's Tale in this blend of Chinese history and mecha science fiction for YA readers.

“Like its ferocious heroine, Iron Widow is brutal, bloodthirsty, and full of rage. Zetian's fight to shatter patriarchal definitions of power makes for a truly thrilling read.”

—Julie C. Dao, author of Forest of a Thousand Lanterns

“A primal scream of a book, Iron Widow delivers on all that fury and more, combining meticulous pacing and brilliant world building to make a truly epic read.”

—E.K. Johnston, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Aetherbound

—Rebecca Schaeffer, author of Not Even Bones

“A bold and brash story that will grab you by the throat from page one. Zhao expertly weaves a story that polishes off classic sci-fi themes and re-imagines them in a lush futuristic world inspired by Ancient China. With an unapologetic heroine who pushes so far beyond the boundaries of expectations, the reader will go on a journey of twists and turns that will make them gasp with each page turn. Thrilling, heart-wrenching, and epic!”

—Kat Cho, internationally bestselling author of Vicious Spirits

“In Iron Widow, Zhao crafts a thrilling, brutal tale with jaw-dropping action and a fierce and unyielding heroine. Zetian is unstoppable, and I dare you not to cheer her on.”

—Elizabeth Lim, bestselling author of Spin the Dawn

“Iron Widow is a gut punch from the very first pages. The action is riveting. The story relentless. The heroine ruthless and unapologetic. Zetian is here to set the world on fire, and her pursuit of vengeance is thrilling and empowering to behold. Sit back and enjoy the show — and stay the hell out of her way.”

—Nicki Pau Preto, author of Crown of Feathers

“A searing, cinematic, gut-punch of a tale, Iron Widow is both wickedly fun and brutally incisive when it comes to the Chinese history and culture it draws inspiration from. There’s no resisting Wu Zetian; once she sinks her claws in you, you’ll be racing alongside her to a shocking, subversive end.”

—Joan He, New York Times–bestselling author of The Ones We're Meant to Find

“Absolutely epic. This is the historical-inspired, futuristic sci-fi mash-up of my wildest dreams. Iron Widow charges headfirst into a world of giant mechas and uncompromising characters. The brutal beauty of Xiran Jay Zhao’s writing kept me glued to the page from start to finish.”

—Chloe Gong, New York Times–bestselling author of These Violent Delights

“I . . . stayed up till 3 a.m. to finish.”

—Lisa Gardner, New York Times-bestselling author

The boys of Huaxia dream of pairing up with girls to pilot Chrysalises, giant transforming robots that can battle the mecha aliens that lurk beyond the Great Wall. It doesn't matter that the girls often die from the mental strain.

When 18-year-old Zetian offers herself up as a concubine-pilot, it's to assassinate the ace male pilot responsible for her sister's death. But she gets her vengeance in a way nobody expected—she kills him through the psychic link between pilots and emerges from the cockpit unscathed. She is labeled an Iron Widow, a much-feared and much-silenced kind of female pilot who can sacrifice boys to power up Chrysalises instead.​

To tame her unnerving yet invaluable mental strength, she is paired up with Li Shimin, the strongest and most controversial male pilot in Huaxia​. But now that Zetian has had a taste of power, she will not cower so easily. She will miss no opportunity to leverage their combined might and infamy to survive attempt after attempt on her life, until she can figure out exactly why the pilot system works in its misogynist way—and stop more girls from being sacrificed.

Some words from the author herself:

hc + 👗 for a clothes-themed headcanon

"Meu estilo no dia a dia é casual e descontraído, focado no conforto e praticidade. Costumo usar camisetas de algodão em cores neutras, como cinza, preto e branco, combinadas com bermudas confortáveis e chinelos ou tênis. Às vezes regatas debaixo de uma camiseta de botões aberta. Gosto de peças básicas e versáteis que não exijam muito esforço, mas ainda me façam parecer bem vestido. Para ocasiões mais formais ou eventos especiais, meu estilo muda para algo mais sofisticado. Opto por camisas de botão em tons sóbrios ou com padrões discretos, calças de sarja ou chinos e sapatos sociais ou mocassins. Acessórios são mínimos; além da pulseira com pingente que vira minha espada 'Shadowblade', geralmente uso um relógio e, ocasionalmente, um colar discreto."

Outras cores além de preto no armário de Damon são raras. Ele tem, mas são poucas. A maioria são roupas pretas, desde jaquetas de couro e blusas a hoodies e camisetas, 95% são da cor preta.

🦇

00h00 - As nuvens escuras do céu soturno cobrem o luar, a única coisa que impede a escuridão de engolir todo o cenário são as luzes frias e artificiais dos postes que clareiam as ruas imundas da região. Uma brisa gélida sopra pelo cenário, balançando os panos que vestem uma silhueta delicada, esta que avança a passos rápidos em direção a estação do metrô mais próxima.

00h04 - Uma dupla de andarilhos brotam das sombras, sedentos, eles se aproximam da frágil vítima. Ela apressa o passo, mas não demora para ser alcançada pelos estranhos.

00h11 - Gritos ecoam pelo vazio no momento em que mãos sujas e pesadas agarram o seu braço. O desespero e terror se instauram. Os indivíduos não iriam se satisfazer apenas com celulares e carteiras, os maltrapilhos ansiavam por mais, desejavam carne.

00h18 - Neste instante, um veículo preto com os vidros igualmente enegrecidos estaciona ao lado da calçada, mas dele ninguém desembarca. O motor continua ligado, o excêntrico viewer permanece no interior do auto apenas assistindo a cena.

00h20 - A mulher, em um último esforço, se livra do abraço mortal e corre na direção do carro, implorando por ajuda. Aos prantos, ela bate nos vidros, tentando visualizar quem estava no interior da máquina de aço. Sem conseguir pensar direito, a moça puxa as maçanetas, tentando abrir as portas e buscar refúgio, em vão. Tomada pelo desespero, a jovem cai de joelho, se encolhe em posição fetal e sequer percebe o borrão negro passando por detrás dela.

00h21 - Uma figura humanoide negra avança contra os marginais, como se a própria sombra tivesse se materializado. Rápida e consciente de cada movimento, seus golpes são fortes o suficiente para causar dor e desestabilizar os homens. Sem nenhuma chance de reação, os estranhos fogem como cães covardes com os rabos entre as pernas.

00h23 - Um par de botas negras se posicionam ao lado da mulher, e permanece ao seu lado por um breve tempo, como se quisesse garantir que estava tudo bem com ela. Encolhida ao lado do veículo, a moça chora e implora por misericórdia, evita de encarar a figura que estacava a sua frente temendo pelo pior.

00h24 - A passos lentos e pesados, o ser de traje negro abandona a cena, o som da porta do lado do motorista bate, os motores roncam, cortando o silêncio, e tão misteriosamente quanto chegou, a máquina se evade, seguindo pela via solitária.

00h26 - Vagarosamente a mulher vai relaxando o corpo, encarando o ambiente silencioso ao seu redor. Ao perceber que não havia mais ninguém a sua volta, ela ergue-se, aperta a bolsa contra os seios e corre para o interior da estação, com os olhos marejados. Ao avistar o guarda do local, ela fica mais aliviada, seu coração desacelera e ela volta a chorar, se jogando contra o corpo do segurança. Enfim, se sentia segura.

Fairyloot YA Fantasy August 2023 spoilers

Hi all! I know I'm a bit late with this one, but I finally have the August 2023 YA Fantasy post for you! This box arrived a little later than usual due to a manufacturing delay, which means I should have the September box to share pretty soon too. The August YA fantasy theme is "Reap What You Sow" and features the book Bonesmith by Nicki Pau Preto. It looks like it's the first book in a series!

The cover is a different style than I'm used to seeing from Fairyloot, but I really like it! It definitely has a spooky motif, which is fun we're getting close to Halloween. I might save this book to read when the autumn weather really kicks in.

There are lots of exciting extras in this box, including prints, tarot cards with character art from Bonesmith, a bookmark, stickers, and page flags for marking book/notebook pages. There's also a set of four metal straws with skull art printed on them, along with a bag to store the straws and a cleaning brush. Additionally this box came with a set of white metal skull bookends (again with the spooky theme!) and a glass tumbler with a glass straw and bamboo lid. The tumbler has a quote from Belladonna by Adalyn Grace and a really pretty purple floral theme. I've already used the tumbler for coffee and it's really nice quality.

I'm looking forward to this one. I am so ready for fall and I think this will be the perfect book to get me into my spooky-season mindset.

rinn, como você fez a imagem do theme? eu adorei como ficou o verde e o rosa, mas sem que eles se misturassem. eu queria muito fazer algo assim, mas sou péssima no ps

Mudei o theme e não te respondi, perdão, pompurin. Vou tentar te ensinar como eu fiz, mas sou péssima explicando então já sabe, qualquer coisa, me chama no pv que consigo explicar melhor ao me falar suas duvidas + me mandar fotos. Só para detalhar melhor, a explicação tá antes da imagem.

A imagem original é assim, não a tenho mais, então peguei uma que tinha aqui. Você pode fazer do tamanho que quiser, estou usando 500x500, mas funciona de todo jeito. Gosto de editar a coloração, ou seja, sempre coloca um contraste/brilho em tudo que faço no ps, é opcional, claro, mas é bom para editar as cores em melhor qualidade. Também passo uma nitidez logo no começo, mas se quiser deixar para o final, fica a vontade!

As imagens são ilustrativas, apenas para te situar. A primeira fica no canto inferior da sua tela, essa bolinha dividida. A nitidez fica na parte superior, na sessão FILTRO; tanto que esse passo é ao seu critério, cada um tem seu jeito de colocar nitidez nas coisas, então não passei como eu faço.

Depois disso, adicione o preto e branco, ele é a base do edit. Com a imagem nítida, com as cores da forma desejada e b&w, você vai colocar um degradê e para isso, só ir na mesma bolinha que foi para colocar brilho/contraste.

Não se todos aparecem dessa forma, mas precisa ser o degradê com a cor de um lado e o transparente do outro, caso no seu não apareça de primeira, você pode clicar e selecionar a segunda opção do popup que vai aparecer (se não me engano).

Depois de encontrar o degradê necessário, hora de colorir! Só clicar no quadradinho destacada para aparecer a opção de cor, então clique no retângulo para aparecer outro popup, onde vai selecionar a cor de sua preferência. Feito isso, clique nos dois 'ok' e vamos seguir em frente.

Hora de mexer na posição da cor, vamos mexer no ângulo, para ficar com a cor como na imagem demonstrativa, coloquei em 64,98. Se quiser colocar no outro lado, só mover essa linha para o lado contrário, ou seja para a esquerda (<<).

Depois de dar o ok, clica com o botão direito para duplicar o degradê que fez. É muito mais rápido dessa forma, mas se quiser repetir os passos anteriores, fique a vontade. Se quiser usar outra cor, só repetir o passo de cor que expliquei antes, mas se for usar a mesma vamos seguir aqui... Você só precisa mudar o ângulo, usando a linha/seta, o "valor" é da sua preferência, o que importa é a outra cor estar na mesma direção da anterior, mas na parte superior.

Depois de estar com as duas cores posicionadas, praticamente já está pronto. Você pode diminuir a opacidade se desejar ou fazer esse extra, que, pessoalmente, prefiro para meus edits. No histórico de camadas, onde estão todos os itens do projeto, você vai até a barrinha superior ao lado de 'opacidade', clique ali para surgir uma lista de comandos.

Como podem ver acima, temos diversos comandos a nossa disposição e vamos brincar com eles. Você pode testar todos, como desejar, mas para o que montei, preferi usar os cinco destacados. Selecionei os dois degradês e apliquei os comandos, que me resultaram nessas imagens:

Com superexposição de cores.

Com superexposição linear.

Com 'Sobrepor'.

Com luz indireta.

E com 'cor'.

Para dar uma aparência melhor e com iluminação, adicionei uma nova camada abaixo dos degradês e utilizei do pincel espaçado (aerógrafo, se não me engano), no tamanho 30px - alterei depois do print - para fazer algumas luzes nas cores utilizadas no edit.

No menu do lado esquerdo, ao final, temos a imagem a seguir, de dois quadrados com cores. Clique no que está acima para ter a janela de cores. Eu abri os degradês para pegar os códigos de cor e os coloquei embaixo, um por um, para ter a paleta.

Escolhi um tom mais claro de verde e rosa e comecei a espalhar na imagem. Bolinhas verdes na tonalidade verde e rosa no rosa, se quiser colocar um pouco de branco também pode ser legal. Não coloquei nesse edit porque não gostei de como ficou, mas foi gosto pessoal. Acabamos com essa imagem.

Você também pode ter um trabalho mais rápido, se não quiser tantos passos. Selecione o degradê com 3 tonalidades e na do meio coloque o branco, depois só ajustar de sua preferência com comandos de sobrepor, luz indireta ou o que ficar melhor.

E pode chegar nesse resultado, que achei bem mais bonito!

O truque é brincar com o photoshop e descobrir o que te agrada. Fazer edits é isso, brincar e se agradar com sua brincadeira; na primeira pode não ficar como quer, mas não desista, vá tentando até "acertar" e ficar satisfeita.

Em fuga

Um comediante playboy foge da Mafia apenas para concluir que não há fuga possível.

O tema não é novo mas a perspectiva é mais virada para o drama psicológico do que para o thriller ou policial.

Belíssima cinematografia a preto e branco de Ghislain Cloquet, uma direção segura de Arthur Penn e um protagonista, Warren Beatty, ainda muito jovem, mas já pleno de carisma.

Um filme interessante que além do mais proporciona uma viagem convincente ao mundo do show business dos pequenos bares urbanos dos anos sessenta americanos.

On the run

A playboy comedian flees from the Mafia only to conclude there is no escape.

The theme is not new but the perspective is more towards psychological drama than towards thriller or cop/mob movie.

Beautiful cinematography in black and white by Ghislain Cloquet, a sure direction by Arthur Penn and a protagonist, Warren Beatty, still very young, but already full of charisma.

An interesting film that also provides a convincing journey into the world of show business in the small urban clubs of the American sixties.
