Tagged by @thisbrilliantsky to share my 10 favorite movies! I feel like most of you have been with me in this little corner of tumblr for years and already know my faves, so I thought maybe I'd do some newer favorites this time! These aren't my idea of best movies ever made, nor are they necessarily my ALL TIME favorites, but they're favorites I've watched within the last five-ish years!

1. The Personal History of David Copperfield

2. Emma.

3. Mary Poppins Returns

4. Luca

5. The Shop Around the Corner

6. Meet John Doe

7. The Bad Guys

8. Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day

9. Grosse Point Blank

10. Shout out to Polite Society because it was great

I was tagged by @worldsentwined!

Rules: Write the latest line from your wip (or post where you last  left off in your art) and tag as many people as there are words in the  line. Make a new post, don’t reblog.

The last line of something I can share here... probably more Lin Moniao shenanigans:

"Well, if it is, I'm sure no one would think it strange that shifu would wish to rest for a while after such a difficult journey."

That's not even a super long line! I'm still not going to tag that many people. Let's say @aethersea @ilthit @tanoraqui @bamboocounting @big-meows @thisbrilliantsky @swordmouse @edenfalling @brigdh @hamburgergod there, that's plenty

fma (manga & fmab) for the blorbo ask thing if no has asked u that yet!

part ii lets go!!

- blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most): roy and riza like sir those are my emotional support war criminals fighting for their atonement and for their right to be justly punished for their crimes. the way everyone understands that these two people are SO in love even if the narrative never outright says it, it's undeniable and holy frick it's delicious. the devotion, the tragedy, the indebtedness, the forgiveness, the even-into-hell of it all

- scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped): do not @ me but i think worm envy is very cute. that does not negate the fact that i want to put it in a jar and shake violently

- scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave): major general olivier mira armstrong has me screaming flailing etc every second she’s on screen. everything she says and does is iconic and correct. remember when she stabbed that guy through the arm and buried him alive in wet cement. remember when she drove a tank up an elevator. remember when she put that guys gun to her head and said you won’t do it and oh no i just realized i very much do have a Type when it comes to characters that make me feel some type of way (fellas if there's a beautiful stern blond milf/dilf of a military commander who inspires tremendous loyalty from their men and has a sword and blue eyes and beautiful chiseled lips and tig ole biddies that's not your fave that's tumblr user rithmeres' pick-me-up-and-pin-me-to-a-wall fantasy)

- glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week): winry's parents are in like 3 episodes but i have so much respect and admiration for their commitment to save lives no matter the cost, especially in the manga where the horrors of the ishval chapters aren't scaled back

- poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave): i have to wonder why scar is not a more popular character and i honestly think it's because his arc makes people uncomfortable and is not the kind of thing that gets easily ‘fandomized’. narratively speaking he is probably just as important as roy and riza i think, and he has so much to offer the story in the questions that his role in the story raises. what actions are justified when atrocities have been committed? what is redemption and who 'deserves' it? how do forgiveness, atonement, and restoration factor into each other? how do we begin to understand one another as people when we have been hurt so badly? how do we move forward to end cycles of violence? and i think fandom (derogatory) will gloss over those questions because it's not happy yay fun fandom times to sit with these questions and ask yourself what it means for the real world. when scar is introduced he is blinded by hate and seconds away from killing a child who had no part in the conflict that destroyed him but when the story wraps scar is spearheading the restoration of ishval in peacetime as an activist and leader (and maybe even a priest again) and it’s a truly beautiful thing to watch him become whole again and see with eyes unclouded

- horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason): yoki lmfao what a loser

- eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell): bradley for executing order 66 on ishval (and also for being named king like WHO DID THAT)

[wizardysseus]

i just realized i was supposed to send u an ask and not just put it in the tags when i reblogged the post. so i say again. lilac and charcoal. <3. obviously.

teehee ^^

15 questions + 15 friends

tagged by @afoolofhope

Are you named after anyone? nnnot that i know of...

When was the last time you cried? i don't remember

Do you have kids? nope

What sports do you play/have you played? i've played t-ball, softball, and soccer. the only one i didn't hate was soccer and that only bc so long as i was running in the vague direction of the ball i could make it look like i cared what was happening. i simply do not vibe with sports

Do you use sarcasm? when frustrated and/or angry, but only on the side of whoever's been wronged. if someone's frustrated i'll be sarcastic alongside them, not at them

What is the first thing you notice about people? uh. their... presence, i guess? basically, do they notably raise my anxiety 😅

What's your eye color? brown

Scary movies or happy endings? happy endings, tho i feel like this is a weird dichotomy. can scary movies not have happy endings?

Any talents? *beats back self-deprecating comments with a stick* i read out loud well and my singing voice is strong, my writing has been complimented in various ways (evocative, true to character, causing many feelings, etc), and i make pretty jewelry *collapses in exhaustion from beating back the anxiety goblin*

Where were you born? the good ol' us of a

What are your hobbies? art in many forms (writing, painting, crocheting, jewelry, graphic design amongst others) and i'd like to get into more (carpentry in some form, quilting, miniatures...)

Do you have any pets? yyyes and no, i feel responsible for mi's dog and i love her very much, but i wouldn't call her my dog

How tall are you? 5'6"

Favorite subject in school? whichever subject allowed me to just read stories, so usually english

Dream job? uhh something physical but not physically demanding that pays really well, has a well-defined end state, and doesn't need thinking. i really liked the wiring work i did when i worked in a machine shop and i like doing kitchen prep; i'd like more natural light, tho, and a quieter environment - both the machine shop and the kitchen were/are full artificial lighting and noisy as hell

🌱🍯🌳

🌱 what is something you want to begin learning?

(besides spanish, which i've technically long since started lol) lately i've been thinking i should dip my toes into knitting! i want something to do with my hands when i'm fidgety that is wholesome and not my phone. i'm just not sure where to start yet

🍯 what is one thing you like about yourself?

i like that i'm warm and empathetic even on my worst days, and that at work i am pretty good at making my patients feel comfortable and safe in a short amount of time because of that

🌳 what is one thing in your future that you are looking forward to?

i'm so grateful that i'm at a point in my life where this is hard to narrow down, but i hung out with a baby this weekend so being a mom one day is all that's on my brain atm <3
