#Actually it's an amazing book

[somnimagus]

My page for @destinytriofanzine! I drew something about kids always dreaming of far off places

[id in alt!]

#kingdom hearts #kh #ahh this one was so hard to draw; i never know how to combine a bunch of scenes in one picture without it looking cheesy #just threw a bunch of waves and leaves and birds on top and called it a day haha. it might be a bit too busy though #the white line going up the center is supposed to be a trail left behind by the gummi ship! it connects to the ship in the bg at the top #it's kinda meant to evoke little kids dreaming of other places-> getting older and earnestly making the raft to try to reach the dream #->the gummi ship as a premonition of how they'd actually reach the dream in the future. i guess? idk how to explain #and i really wanted to have kairi's expressions be really similar but changing subtly from wonder to worry when she's older #the boys are just max enthusiasm the whole time #but yeah. something something Symbolism and hopefully it's at least kinda pretty if it doesn't make sense #i'm just super proud to have been part of this project! everyone's work is just amazing #the destiny kids give me this soft feeling of kinda lonely nostalgia. it's nice to have a book full of that #very wistful looking through it #fan art #my art #project stuff

Andrew Minyard puts on his black combat boots and black armbands. He wears his black hoodie because Andrew is not like other boys. His newest teammate Neil Josten has an aura of danger that Andrew knows he is better off not getting close. But Andrew cannot help it. He is like a moth drawn to a flame. Neil’s untamed auburn hair that is never styled yet it is messy in an effortless way and his big blue orbs that must have a lot of hidden secrets. Andrew knows he should not play with fire but with that toned body Andrew minyard can not stay away.

Whatever, not like Neil josten would notice him anyways. He is the outcast in his teams and no one likes him. Neil josten would not care about him.

Imagine Andrew’s surprise when Neil josten joins him on the roof and shares his secrets. Andrew is right, Neil has a very dark past that is even darker than Andrew’s. Neil is involved in the mafia! But because Andrew is not like other boys he does not care and promise to protect Neil even though Andrew probably cannot do anything if anything happens. Neil probably has to be the one to save Andrew.

Neil also turns out to be loaded and he buys Andrew a car when his was destroyed and Andrew cannot say no to a Maserati.

Everyone else on the team is so shock when super attractive good looking Neil josten will choose to be with someone like Andrew minyard but Neil does not care and growls at anyone that says anything bad about Andrew.

#THIS IS SATIRE #SATIRE #okay this is satire pls don’t take this seriously #I have the idea to write like cringy wattpad from Andrew pov but the more I write the more I’m like oh no I feel like Andrew’s inner #monologue is exactly like that and I could not differentiate and had to try so hard lmao #I literally just have to tone shit up and like use cringy words and summarise the books and boom wow bad boy billionaire mafia Neil #and y/n Andrew!!! #I was low-key laughing out loud at how accurate this is tho like wdym this is exactly what happens in the books #from now on if people ask me what’s aftg about I’ll show them this #and that’s why Nora has amazing writing skills because imagine being able to write this shit in such a poetic way #and actually adding layers and deep meanings and it’s not dumb or cringe #anyways I love aftg and Nora sakavic #aftg #all for the game #tfc #the foxhole court #aftg series #aftg fandom #aftg incorrect quotes #andrew minyard #neil josten #andrew joseph minyard #the sunshine court #aftg thoughts #aftg reread #aftg shitpost #tfc shitpost #incorrect tfc #tfc textpost #aftg andreil

best KJ Charles novels? I have a bunch of long flights coming up…

best standalones:

Think of England - mystery! intrigue! it's safer to be caught in flagrante delicto by one's hosts than to be caught spying, so take your trousers off, my good sir!

Band Sinister - a series of unfortunate events introduces country virgin and landed scoundrel. NO MURDER AT ALL in this one. lowest stakes KJC novel by far (if you don't care about A Lady's Reputation!).

The Gentle Art of Fortune Hunting - fortune hunter gets sniffed out by his mark's uncle, loses fantastically to him at cards, offers to pay in kind. this one is just. so. horny.

best series:

The Doomsday Books (2 books) - these are so fun. smugglers, hidden treasure, Kent accents, beetles?!, terrible relatives, romance, murder, etc. all that good KJC shit.

The Will Darling Adventures (3 books) - post-war secret society shenanigans, ft. current bookseller, previous vicious killer in the trenches. splashes of PTSD, Bright Young Things, gangsters, the secret service, communists, sidecars. truly rip-roaring. and the sex scenes are top notch.

#special mentions to: #A Charm of Magpies (3 books) #shamans and China and dark magic and all sorts... very Catered To Me rather than Actually Very Good #ALSO A Seditious Affair (Society of Gentlemen book 2) #an amazing book sandwiched in between two bang average books which annoyingly requires the first one as necessary context #very saucy and fun though #HOPE THIS ISN'T TOO LATE FOR YOUR FLIGHTS #answered #books #book rec

Some days I wake up and think about if Hua Cheng hadn’t come back. And that Xie Lian had just been left waiting.

Because that’s what MXTX protagonist do, they wait, like loyal dogs. They’ll wait until the end of time, until weeds have grown up their leg and their stories and actions have been forgotten.

I want to see that unwavering devotion carried out hopelessly until eventually he rots always because a god with no believers is no god at all.

Other days I wake up and think about HuaLian fucking nasty in Xie Lians broken down shack of a shrine.

#MXTX should write a tragedy #it’s would be amazing #sorry guys I’m drunk and emotional #im not actually drunk just tired #hear me out #mxtx books #mxtx tgcf #tgcf #hualian #hua cheng #xie lian #make them suffer god damn it

Sorry, yeah, Satan told me it's the day to copy out Sifo-Dyas's last words over Oba Diah from the novel Force Collector by Kevin Shinick and put it on tumblr: (just pulled out his relevant lines)

---

He looked like a man who'd taken a beating, and he rocked back and forth in an effort to hold his footing. "This is Master Sifo-Dyas, en route to the desert moon that orbits Oba Diah. I'm with... with... Silman, flying emergency survival capsule number seven-seven-five-one-nine, and our long-range transmitter has been knocked out. We're under attack by the Pykes, and I'm preparing to jettison this projector in hopes that it will be found and -" Sifo-Dyas came back into focus. "And the truth is, we won't make it out of this alive." He looked exhausted and frightened but determined. "If that's the case, so be it. This is what it's come to - and I want... I want everyone to understand that I've done my best. Some may disagree with my methods, but these are desperate times and someone, somewhere should know: as you are aware, I've seen a vision of the future that I feel warrants an army. You've disagreed with me, but I felt I had no choice. Therefore I have ordered one: a clone army from the Kaminoans. Something must be done, and I made that decision. It may haunt me, and," --more static, garbled shouts from someone else in the shuttle-- "or then again, maybe I won't have to live with that decision very long at all." Then, to anyone who might find the message and hear it, or to the Jedi themselves, he added, "Come find me!"

#it's the come find me that just kills me #the lost one #it's actually amazing how much I love this for him #I didn't know I needed to read him sane and brave and collected at the end of his life but yeah it made me feel things #sifo-dyas #sifo dyas #⛏️⛏️⛏️ #clones wars #star wars books

Watched Red White & Royal Blue, here’s my letterboxd review as a The Social Network fan who loves it and jewnicorn at a sensible level:

I already have a copy of agggtm, I don't need anoth-

#i cannot believe I'm considering buying a book with real people on the cover #BUT THIS ACTUALLY LOOKS SO FUCKING GOOD?? #the first time a book looks amazing with real people on the cover oh this is a first in the book community #agggtm #a good girl's guide to murder #pippa fitz amobi #nav agggtm

i know astarion's attitude towards sex is all due to his trauma but. listen. there are some aspects of his romance and experiences that can be so relatable as a sex-neutral or sex-averse ace person. in fact him being ace or acespec on top of the trauma makes him even more compelling and tragic to me. it would've been amazing and interesting if he'd been canonically ace and these aspects plus how his asexuality affected his traumatic sexual experiences had been explored as well

#bg3 #bg3 spoilers #astarion #baldur's gate 3 #asexual #bee talks #like i love any ace rep! but so far except in some books i've only ever seen the same kind of ace rep. and it's always really tame #regardless of how he feels about sex (favorable or neutral or averse) a character like astarion being ace would've been groundbreaking afai #btw i've seen it under other posts on the topic so: if you come at me like 'uhm actually' i'm blocking you #this post isn't for you #anyway during my playtest at larian's in april i wrote an essay suggesting the possibility of ace dialogue options for the player character #and ace companions (for future games) #i hope larian listens and gives us ace options + an ace companion in the future #I'm sure they could do something amazing #so fingers crossed

not to talk about dune on main but like. lisan al-gaib became an instant meme in the theater i was at. like great acting amazing music (thank you hans zimmer you're a real one) phenomenal photography and setting and fight choreography

but stilgar's LISAN AL-GAIB in every circumstance possible was so funny it made the whole theater erupt into laughter directly after the fight with feyd-rautha which is supposed to be like. poignant ig and powerful and an overall vibe

y'all hit the wrong vibe besties 😭😭

#dune #dune two #dune 2 #dune part 2 #dune part two #sawry besties it was a riot #unironically the movie was kinda fire though #my mum was clapping and cheering #so wild #father didn't even fall asleep this time #that's a real compliment #i love you zendaya #i love you florence pugh #timmy did great i gotta say #why do i see him as a child he's a whole guy #i think it's the french in him #also my mum was like #what are thanos and drax doing here #she has not watched the first dune #or read anything abt it #a true icon #no i didn't leave out austin butler #my mum just made a comment abt him being some sort of evil model and i– #why is she so funny #TO TUMBLR USER CAFFEINEECOLD #thank you for telling me his name i was so not looking forward to going through the book again #searching it up didn't even compute it is very late and my brain defaults to bbc merlin's look in a book doctrine #i'm sorry i took the s/o out of the actual post but my mum said it didn't make sense and i should put it in the tags #either way you're amazing thank you

I'm finally reading @copperbadge's Shivadverse books and they're fucking amazing - just what I wanted right now. Intelligent and funny, light and political, romantic and plotty, and just the right vibe for me right now.

Feels a bit odd to be relating hard to two of the male characters, but there's so much I can relate to... chaos ADHD, shit stirring, protective of loved ones, bright and loud... music teacher, dreams of Eurovision, attracted to rock stars, blunt and straightforward, clear with boundaries... then high fiving after sex (which is something I've done forever)

Pretty sure I've inspected my gender hard enough and come to the conclusion that woman fits pretty snugly, but it's sometimes odd to see so much of myself in male characters. I am enjoying reading this and going "oh look! Same hat!" though 🤣

#apparently I've decided to actually start posting and not just reblogging stuff #feels weird but also can't dismiss the urge #hopefully anyone following me doesn't mind #but really the Shivadverse books are amazing

[sleepless-crows]

that theory about kanej doing something we'll never get to see them do being a sort of dream sequence feels right. in the books, we get to read kaz's daydreams and his thoughts that never actually come into fruition. like the you, inej. you scene. what if to show kaz's thoughts, we get his daydreams on screen. and obviously there are more intense ones than that you inej you scene so

#grishaverse #six of crows #soc #shadow and bone #kaz brekker #inej ghafa #kanej #like i actually want that. that would be amazing. so book accurate. and just so perfect please. as long as it doesnt amount to kissing #because as an audience its still important that we dont see that but all those thoughts kaz has omg please

this user watched "The Master and Margarita" (2024) and she hopes that whenever this movie gets a digital release, it also gets english subtitles, because honestly, this was the best movie I've watched in the past few years

#the master and margarita #there's a thing I have to admit: I love british/hollywood adaptations of russian literature #because in russia those books are treated like sacred texts #which turns every adaptation into a blind word-to-word depiction of a novel #and the soul or the main idea quite often gets lost or covered in all of it #side note: I absolutely loved that in credits they wrote august diehl's name in the latin alphabet #like that's actually an amazing idea to use the native language of an actor to mention them. cheffs kiss #(I'm sure someone have done this before that's just the first time I saw it. so) #personall stuff

FRANCIS LAWRENCE RELEASE THE EXTENDED CUT!!!!!

#so i just got out from seeing tbosas for the first time #and it was bloody fantastic #probably my least favorite of the films but still amazing in its own right #but i couldn't escape the feeling that there was a lot more to this film that wasn't shown #and i don't just mean scenes from the books that were cut completely (although that's part of it) #i personally wanted to see more of the covey in the film #i don't wanna get my hopes up that they'll actually release an extended cut tho cause that would just be too awesome #so for now i'll just scream into the void while lusting over tom blyth #and hope that maybe someone important will hear me and let francis know what the people want #i can't believe no one's talking about the scene where they showed coryo [redacted] at the beginning of the film (iykyk)😏 #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #the hunger games #coriolanus snow #tbosas #lucy gray baird #thg #sejanus plinth #coriolanus x lucy gray #coriolanus x sejanus #lucy gray x coriolanus #snowbaird #lucy gray #tbosas spoilers #president snow #tom blyth #josh andres rivera #tigris snow #hunter schafer #rachel zegler #the hunger games series
