everytime i think about ex!bakugo, i get so emotional thinking about how he carries on with his day-to-day like the breakup didn’t happen.

he doesn’t even give himself time to mourn the relationship, to process the loss of you. he throws himself into work, practically drowning in it because he can’t bear staying idle.

you’re everywhere, still—

in the picture frames scattered around his home, in the decorative pieces that each hold their own memory. some of the clothes you returned to him smell like you.

when kirishima asks him how he is, he never answers, always redirecting the subject back to work. deku notices longer bouts of silence during joint patrols, and when he pries, bakugo’s only reply is, “s’not a concern.”

it’s unusual, because bakugo is loud and rough, he barks and barks and barks, but with this, he stays quiet.

give me more fics where Eddie runs into Steve and Robin, running around after being drugged (and tortured) by the Russians at Starcourt. Steve, dopy and sweet and acting like dumbest puppy- and did i mention his face was beat in? Robin, flailing all over steve and giggling with him as they sway, more intertwined than humanly possible, eyes unfocused. and Eddie, faking calm as he tries to herd them to a bathroom and planning to kill whoever drugged his these loopy sailors that he’s been annoying all summer.

It may seem like such an insignificant thing, but it will put a smile on your face <3

bless you anon bc I'm soooo tired right now w work and this was one of those moments I missed from joining fandom so late and it absolutely put a smile on my face

and it makes me think of when out of all his birthday wishes that day he only reposted Oscar's and when the two pics he chose were of him posing beneath Oscar's name and zooming in on the group pic to just him and Oscar. he really said it sure is nice to choose than to be chosen sometimes <3

people actually went on about how game of thrones made it socially acceptable to be a fantasy nerd, as though the lord of the rings movies hadn't been released less than a decade earlier and left far greater cultural ripples and i am just

got may have made the adults feel better about liking fantasy, but lotr got into the kids' heads when they (we) were just young and impressionable enough to be absolutely transported and emotionally rewritten by don't you leave him, samwise gamgee and my brother, my captain, my king and and rohan will answer

lotr was rewriting entire generations' brain chemistry long before asoiaf and so obviously it's not fair to compare any post-lotr fantasy novel to it, and each book series was trying to do different things within their own spheres and so that also is not a fair comparison, but in terms of the cultural impact of the adaptations that came out within a decade of each other, saying that it was game of thrones that made fantasy mainstream is baffling

game of thrones could only run because the lord of the rings movies laid the path, and i will die on this hill

Man. Goro being in strikers wouldve been soooo fucking good. Especially w the surprisingly good writing and plot??? You have to live w the consequences of your mistakes? You dont get to just Die and leave the mess you made behind? You have to confront the people youve hurt and accept that they may never forgive you? That people who care about you and love you will support you even when youre at rock bottom as long as u show a willingness to change and do better? This wouldve been a perfect way to tie up Goros whole story in neat little bow 😔😔😔

“do you have a type?” uhhh? yes? no?

Hi it’s me, the anon who asked for Mr Warren content warnings. I wanted to ask what your technique for historical research is, if you’re willing to share. I used to interpret at a historic woollen mill and was totally surprised by the level of accuracy in your writing when it came to textile production.

Technique is a strong word but I'll give it a go!

For Mr Warren's Profession specifically I was fortunate enough to visit the Lowell Mills Museum in Lowell, Massachusetts. Their guides and exhibits were vital to making the mill in the book come alive.

For my Victorian historicals in general, I'm very lucky in that the Victorians did a whole lot of self-documentation that is well-preserved in a language I know how to read. I read extensively for four years, focusing on…

fiction written by Victorians

nonfiction written by Victorians (self-help guides, technological journals and manuals, newspaper articles, etc.)

nonfiction written by 20th/21st century historians (I owe Judith Flanders my life)

For Hold Fast specifically I also visited Mystic Seaport in Mystic, Connecticut (home of the last wooden whaleship in the world) and the New Bedford Whaling Museum in New Bedford, Massachusetts (home of the largest scale-model whaleship in the world and also many actual whale skeletons).

For Fiorenzo, I read mostly nonfiction by present-day Venetians and 20th/21st century historians. I also visited the Sargent, Whistler, and Venetian Glass exhibit at Mystic Seaport, which gave me an opportunity to interact with not just historical Venetian crafts and art but also a real life gondola.

tl;dr - A lot of nonfiction reading, some fiction reading, and ideally something I can visit in person to draw my own observations.

Anthony having a panic attack over Kate getting stung by a bee should be objectively funny but in actuality that was the most devastating and romantic scene in the show so far oh my god
