ive had an impossible time trying to make things recently mostly because what i want to do is either garden or sit outside and process or spin alpaca but the weather remains cold and rainy with no end in sight (fun fact: there are 2 weeks left of spring and it’s rained, snowed, or been overcast for all but about 10 days this season), so instead i’m mostly doing none of that and just working a lot instead. today after work though i picked up a sock i started last month, got a few more rows in, and then decided what i should actually do is have another go at trying to decipher bulgarian terlitsi patterns (i do not speak or read bulgarian). meanwhile i know full well that even if i start a pair i will immediately drop it for something else, because that’s just the mood i’ve been in
#even more complaining in tags:#sigh. feels like everything is hinging on it not being rainy and freezing but the weather just refuses to let up for more than two days#at a time. and my canteloup plant has already died from the rain since i got optimistic a few weeks ago. along with half of the cucumbers#*hinge-ing ??? idk.#plus the tomatoes are slowly dying from lack of light which i rly can't do a thing about#meanwhile my floor is still covered in sewing materials bc i dont feel like working on the skirt#bc who wants to wear cotton skirts when its so cold ???#and the hat i was vaguely knitting is on the floor by the bedside table where it got knocked off after i fell getting out of bed at night#and tried to brace myself on the table and promptly knocked literally everything over#and im taking no enjoyment whatsoever from sock knitting bc i want to do ! other ! stuff !#AND i don't really want to do wool processing inside rn bc the vaccum broke and we don't have money for another#so adding extra dust and grime on top of what is normally being created sounds like a bad idea#so working through the alpaca fleece so that i have rolags ready to spin when the weather is finally nice isnt really feasible#plus i finally ran out of all of the post surgery meds. the pain management clinic actually called me earlier but it was during work#and they didnt pick up when i called back so. have to wait until monday to schedule an appointment (which might be. months out. no idea)#so i spent pretty much all day in tons and tons of pain and sick to death of the weather and with nothing to do#esp bc i realized computer screens are a migraine trigger#im on one now bc im too bored to care#but. just overall terrible#not even the kind of boredness where i can catch up on things i ought to do bc PAIN.

Did Mclaren have to put their livery out earlier than expected to hide the issue with Lando asking for innapropriate pictures from a Snapchat account?
HR working overtime again if they did
I actually haven’t heard about that Lando rumour but it’s well known he’s in everyone’s likes, and get a lot of nudes. I am not a nudes girlie but idk why we’re in this place where asking for/sending nudes seems so illegal when it’s celebrities but pretty sure everyone’s sending them to the nobody playboys that inhabit Hinge 😂
At the end f the day I don’t think that’s bad enough that they’d release the livery early.
I heard people on Twitter saying it got leaked before the official reveal so maybe it got leaked or they knew it would so they put it out?
It was a very slapdash thing but I don’t think it has to do with Lando’s low level hoe-ing 😂

12, 13 and 22 (Feemor) for fandom ask please!!
12. funniest/craziest AU I've come up with
Idk man, at this point I've made it my explicit goal to come up with wack stuff that no one else before me thought of, so....
But my top 5 crazy ideas that are brewing in the back of my mind as of now include:
teen Jocasta timetravels forward to the tcw era and saves the republic by claiming to be herself and Dooku's lovechild
post o66 Korkie Kryze accidentally mandopts kidnaps Korto Vos and then it's a comedy of errors empire survival story. They probably team up with the rest of Korkies buddies and also Jin-Lo Ryce bc I love him.
backwards timetravel where all the nerds + Arath and Lorian wake up in their child bodies after their canon deaths and then go off and take over Serenno (it makes sense in the AU i swear) (or it doesn't and still is a fun story)
Jaster & Tarre teamup of total nerdery where they get sent back in time by the Manda to save Mandalore, only their idea for saving Mandalore hinges on saving the Jedi Order first. It's another Master Jereel (my beloved) story where no one except them themselves believe they are doing an amazing job at impersonating Jedi.
speaking of Tarre: my complete backstory for Tarre Vizsla and how the most cringefail jedi to ever jedi was so bad at jedi-ing that he accidentally became mand'alor
but tbh there's so many other whack stories I've already wrote, am writing or simply brainstormed about that there's always others I could talk about. These were just the ones that came to mind first.
13. character/ship I haven't drawn/written yet but want to
hmmm lemme think whom I have done total zero for as of now (I've got a ton of stuff on the backburner that y'all haven't seen yet bc it's spoilery for certain fics)
this is actually really difficult hahahahaha bc whenever a character or a ship piques my interest I tend to immediately do *something* with them, hmmm.
OH!
Grand Admiral Sloane!
I've already planned her to be a character in my sequels rewrite, but I've never come around writing any of it! But it will happen!!
And as for the ship, hmmm. (this question is getting a lot of 'hmms'). Maybe Pre and someone. I've done Pretine stuff already, but I think Pre/Jedi ships have some potential. Crack potential, mostly.
Yeah, that's the only one I can think of.
22. A headcanon for FEEMOR
My boi!! I love him, he is so funny.
I think I've mentioned it before, but I think the funniest thing to do with him is giving him all the makings of a chosen one/anime protagonist and then have him stubborn his way into just being A Normal Guy.
Xanatos calls him a farmer, but what Xani doesn't know is that that's the biggest compliment Feemor could receive. Fee is just the 'Refusal of The Call' trope personified and he is so good at doing it the Force actually eventually gives up on making him its chosen one.
All he wants is to be left alone, help some people and sleep 8 hours a day. Is that so much to ask?
(it is, for someone in the disaster lineage, but Feemor comes by the Yoda stubbornness truly)

Going to dump the wild Adamas thoughts/ideas/predictions that I had immediately post ep. 16 because I can’t turn my brain off
SO MANY SPOILERS BELOW
The person who saved (and kidnapped?) Soo Hyeon has to be someone Manager Lee thinks is helpful enough to not expose?? But not Hye Soo, since she would have been the one behind Sun’s potential sniper-ing. I can’t imagine wha her angle would have been if she knew Soo Hyeon was alive. Or maybe Manager Lee is just staying silent about everything because he knows Hye Soo has to keep him quiet to keep the company out of it.
Manager Lee doesn’t know everything but he HAS to know something. Meal for it’s important that he stays alive (and also that someone might try to kill him)
I need a reunion scene between the brothers. I NEED IT.
I feel like the second season plot would have to be a fairly new plot with its own semi-self contained series of revelations since I don’t see them hinging it on the intricacies of the first plot and most of the major initial mysteries have been revealed.
What if. WHAT IF. The Adamas is more than just the diamond arrow. Because unless it was mistranslated, the note said FIND the Adamas, not BRING the Adamas, and whoever sent it would presumably know Woo Shin already had it if they’re involved enough to know about Soo Hyeon. Maybe Adamas 2.0 is a person? Or a ledger? Idk??
Ok thinking of who’s still alive who could be involved: I’m still waiting for Ms. Yoon to do something important. Agent Park has straight up disappeared and I don’t trust that (we haven’t seen him since the hospital scene?). The new president might also be a problem since he’s still partnered with Haesong. Maybe there will be some plot involving whoever he had killed as part of joining Haesong’s side.
This is not a real guess just a thought I had (don’t take this seriously): What. IF…. Minjo is alive o.o

17, 34, 66 (BITW)
HIIIII <3
17. Do you have a writing routine?
HA. No. I used to and then I got off the writing train due to the move, my work onsite, and my inability to stick to something long term. After I get settled in my new space, I WILL have a routine.
34. How much of your personal life/experience do you include in your fics?
A shocking amount or none at all depending on the fic. BITW is very, very different than what I experience in my life, which is why I think it takes me so long to put out chapters. I deliberately write Gia to make decisions that I would probably never make in my life. A feysand one-shot I have planned in the future is going to be directly lifting from my life. I suspect that one will get written, edited, and posted all in a week.
66. What’s a fun fact about BITW?
In the original version of BITW, Gianna was actually in a love *hinge*? NOT TRIANGLE - idk the word. between Lucien and Eris. The person beta-ing it at the time said that she felt like Gianna didn't actually like Lucien at all and only thought she liked Lucien. I played around with this idea for a while until I realized that timeline wise, (for what I had planned out) it would make more sense for Gia to show up long after Lucien left Autumn. So that killed that idea.

How do you think some of the other parents would react to the blight parents journey to redemption/being fully redeemed? I think it would certainly be shoking at first and they'd be skeptical because of how much of a reputation the blights have built
Ooooo this is a good one I like it okay let’s see
Willow’s Dads
I think Willow’s dads have an especially sour attitude towards the Blight parents just because of Willow’s personal history with Amity and those 7 years of non-stop depression their daughter suffered because of Alador and Odalia’s actions. They’re extremely skeptical of the Blights trying to “turn over a new leaf” and are convinced they’re only saying so because they want to get something out of it. They’re also both especially protective of the Blight children after they’d originally escaped the manor simply because what the ever loving fuck did those two sorry excuses for witches think they were doing to these kids???????
After Willow explains why Amity stopped being her friend all those years ago, her dads sort of. Accidentally adopt? Amity? Sort of? They legit tell her that she’s welcome to stay with them any time and for as long as she needs if she ever has any trouble, etc etc, and no joke they offered their little 2-bedroom flat to the blight kids when they were first discussing their escape plans. They wanted to be absolutely certain these kids would have a safe place to go the moment they flew the coop.
They love Luz. No question. Okay, maybe one question: why is she so insistent that she try to make those good for nothing Blight Socialites see the error of their ways? Their heads are so far up their own vain asses; they consider Luz’s newest quest to be an impossible one. They’re rather surprised when Luz reports back that her talk with the Blight parents actually went in her favor. They still won’t believe it until they see it though, which Luz concedes is fair. It’s not until Camila (who they also love) also reports back weeks later that she made them cry and that they bound themselves in an everlasting oath to Luz that they were going to do better that they finally believe it.
They defo still don’t like it, but yknow. They’re trying? Which is more than they could say of most of their childrens’ lives? And it’s extremely tense; even though all of the Blight children are adults now, these two Very Good Dads (still with no names; please Dana I’m begging you) find themselves acting as chaperones occasionally to the Blight kids when they meet up with their parents. Usually when it involves Amity (as she’s the future daughter in law), but they also don’t hesitate when Edric or Emira ask for their backup as well.
Viney’s Parent(s)
I’ve seen a lot of fanfics where Viney only has one parent and I don’t know why that’s so common. Regardless, Viney’s parent(s) would be fucking livid at the Blight parents. Not only did they openly criticize their daughter (viney) to her face, but also just the years of shitty parenting they inflicted upon their daughter in law and her siblings??? Super not okay. In fact, they were so spiteful, it was a common theme muttered under their breath at Viney and Emira’s wedding. Viney’s parent(s) could almost constantly be heard whispering something about how glad they were that Odalia and Alador weren’t there or how disapproving they would’ve been at any display of affection the newlyweds would share. Long story short, they fucking hate the Blight parents. Where Willow’s dads are much like Willow in that they would let their anger simply simmer and fester like a dark storm on the horizon, Viney’s parent(s) would be the vicious winds of the storm fast-approaching.
Similarly to Willow’s parents, they offer the Blight kids their home if they ever need it. I’m not sure if Viney has siblings or not but regardless, they’d figure out at least three different bedroom solutions for the Blight kids if they ever needed their help with anything.
As much as Viney’s parent(s) love the Blight kids and want to protect them, they actually find planning Viney and Emira’s wedding as the only parent(s) rather difficult. Although that lasts for all of five minutes before the doors are blown off their hinges and Willow and Luz’s parents (and parental figures) burst in like a super hero squad. These adults all want to make sure all of the Blight kids are happy, not just the one that associates with their respective daughters. It just adds fuel to the fire when all of these parental figures show up and the Blight parents don’t.
When they do show up while they’re all trying to plan out our girls’ triad wedding, Viney’s parent(s) have nothing but cold, venomous hatred in their heart(s). How dare they try to reinsert themselves into Amity’s life at a time like this???? It actually takes everyone in attendance of this wedding planning meeting to keep them from just ripping the Blights to shreds where they stood.
Everyone Loves and Respects Camila Noceda. It’s like an unspoken law in the Boiling Isles (and probably also in the human realm, but we’re not there rn). As soon as Camila explains why the Blight parents are even allowed to be at the meeting is because of their willingness to change and the effort they’ve already put in to making amends with their children, Viney’s parent(s) back down. But they don’t stop seething.
I don’t think they truly believe the Blights are in it for their family and not for some other ulterior motive until the day of the wedding. Like, it literally takes Alador walking his daughter down the aisle and taking his seat and just dissolving into tears for them to actually believe they’re here for their daughter. They see Odalia holding his hand tightly and dabbing at her eyes with a handkerchief which is more emotion than they’ve ever seen from Odalia Blight ever. They’re only finally convinced that the Blight parents are capable of changing during the wedding itself. After that point they go much easier on them.
Luz’s Family
I think Eda and Lilith have more personal ties with the Blight parents. We know they all at least went to school together and likely have interacted in the past. Lilith much more recently as the Ex-Head of the Emperor’s Coven and likely actively checking in with other coven heads and their immediate subordinates while also attending to her coven leader duties. I think if they hadn’t been witnesses to Camila ripping them to shreds, they would find it hard to believe too.
Whether or not they believe it, they have very little faith in Alador and Odalia’s ability to actually change much. Or at least, Lilith has the least amount of faith. Eda’s got faith in the Nocedas wedgie-ing those stuck-up Blights into acting like civil witches. And if anyone can melt some ice-cold hearts, it’s the Nocedas. Eda trusts her girls.
Lilith doesn’t not trust them, she’s just worked professionally with them in essentially the same office as them (probably different departments) for the last 20-30 years and hasn’t seen them change once. They seemed somewhat happier in the workplace after their children were first born, but they kept themselves strictly professional at all times. Unless, of course, they were bragging about what new accomplishment their children had achieved. All this to say, the Blight were not so easily swayed.
I think between the Bligjt parents and Lilith there’s a lot of like? Reciprocal Validation in their progress to be Better? Like, Alador and Odalia look to Lilith as a sort of example for someone that used to be in their position thats spent the last several years working hard to change all of that and be worthy of Luz and Eda’s time and attention (and respect. Sometimes Luz still struggles with that one). Lilith sees the Blights’ progress from the view point of someone that’s gone through those same struggles of unlearning everything you thought you knew and building it back up into something more healthy, and she lets them know that they’re doing well, at least compared to her when she was in that same place however many years ago. Idk if the Blights and the Clawthornes were ever friends during school but I like to believe that at least during the hard parts of the Blights redeeming themselves, they do make a real friend in Lilith as someone that understands exactly the mental place they’re coming out of and trying so hard to fix.
Eda generally keeps to herself when it comes to the Blight parents. She loves the Blight kids, of course, one of them is head over heels for her own kid and she’s been a proud bystander watching their relationship flourish over the years. She’s fiercely protective of the Blight kids; any time any of them show up at the Owl house with distressed looks, she immediately puts a kettle to boil and starts prepping some tea before they can even start hashing out what new complicated BS they’ve got stirring in their noggins. She started doing this as a way to not have to deal with teenage hormones because when did her house become a teenager safe-haven??????? But then continued it over the years because all the kids found comfort in the small act of love and care. Even though Emira and Viney are married by the time the Blight parents begin their Redemption Journey, Emira will still stop by the Owl House from time to time and just sit and have tea with Eda (as a fellow trouble-maker, Eda feels a special kinship with the twins. She never minded the Twins’ presence in the Owl House despite all her complaining that her House had turned into a teenage clubhouse).
Any time the subject of Alador and Odalia comes up in conversation, Eda just sits back and crosses her arms and shockingly, remains silent. She knows it means a lot to so many of them; Luz and Camila seem especially invested and she cares for those Blight kids more than she’d ever admit out loud, but she’s not here to get involved. She’ll quietly support her kid’s noble efforts and be on standby in case shit hits the fan, but otherwise she wants nothing to do with the Blight parents.
King is surprisingly observant when he wants to be. He can see just how much this means to Luz and to Amity and knows that while teasing here and there might be okay, he would respect their wishes to continue trying to make the Blight parents decent people again. But that doesn’t mean he likes Alador or Odalia. He, just like Eda, had been among the ones the Blight kids had turned to when they were at their lowest points and seeking comfort over the years. He’s acted as those kids’ teddy bear for years. He only wants them to be happy (he insists it’s so he can stop being the Family Snot Rag but everyone knows it’s because he loves them). So he, like eda, remains silent whenever the topic of the Blight Parents comes up in conversation.
King and Eda defo talk shit about the Blight parents when it’s just the two of them. They will rant for hours about how shitty the Blight parents are and how undeserving they are of this second chance that Luz is giving to them. Whenever other people bring them up, Eda and King will exchange glances and eye rolls. King will often go to Eda’s lap (if she’s sitting) and pretend to nap on her. He’s actually listening and gripping Eda’s dress in his claws as a reminder to Eda to not say anything. Eda does the same under the guise of petting him; she’ll run her fingers through his fur and just grip tightly whenever she feels him starting to grow agitated under her hand. They don’t like the situation, but they also don’t need to be part of it.
Camila’s so fucking tired you guys. She’s long since accepted that her daughter lives in the Demon Realm and that the demons living here tend to only be different in physiology compared to humans or witches. Otherwise, they’re exactly the same as any other person.
No, the true demons, Camila’s discovered, are those like the Blight parents. Those that neglect their children in favor of something so frivolous as social standing and at the same time, thrust ridiculous expectations on their children to behave in the same way such a social standing would require. Withholding affection as something to be earned rather than giving it as the basic need children require. As if their love was something to work for like Luz doing all of her chores (and not forgetting them) for a month to earn a new book. She’s disgusted to say the least. But! Luz is her whole world. And the Blight children are a part of her world. Putting in the work to change the Blight parents for the better rather than just writing them off as a lost cause is something that means a lot to Luz (and by extension, the Blight kids who Camila’s adopted in her mind. She adores Amity and loves watching Eda interact with the twins). So she’s ready to put in that effort. If only so she can scream at them to their faces about the million ways they’ve fucked up and get away with it.
Camila doesn’t....like Alador and Odalia, just sort of on principle. If anything, she pities them. What sort of lives have they led where they think treating their children so horribly was even an option? As she helps guide them into being decent people, she does get to witness their actual personalities break through the tough exteriors they’d crafted for themselves. Alador is a dork. Odalia is quite smart despite her dumb life choices. Both are extremely talented in the magic paths they’ve pursued. Alador is like every man ever and cracks dad jokes that literally only Luz (and sometimes Edric) finds funny. Odalia has a quick-witted kind of humor that you have to stop and think about before it sinks in what she’s said.
It takes a long time for Camila to actually be able to stand their presence, but I think she tolerates them by the time their daughters’ wedding takes place. After that point it’s a matter of chipping away at those stony exteriors they made decades ago to get their real personalities out into the sunshine. By the time those masks are gone, Camila finds she actually doesn’t mind them being around. She’s okay with them being in-laws. I’m not sure if they ever become like. Friends? But they certainly come to a point of mutual respect. Eventually.
Thank you so much anon!! This was a super cool thought exercise :0

The Old Guard x Tam Lin anyone? Although really you don’t need to know Tam Lin to read. It’s a case of: my love was stolen and I’m going to get her back. Idk if you like Orpheus and Eurydice then you might like this.

thanks @nicolos for beta-ing! <3
Summary:
The sea-witch stares so deep into her eyes that Andromache feels a tightness squeezing against her from the air around her. "You’ll have your chance to take your beloved from me. If you can hold her through the night, in every form that she passes through. If you can manage that, then your claim on her will break mine. You will have her back.” “Deal.” Andromache agrees between thumping heartbeats. “Tomorrow night?”  “Agreed. Tomorrow night it is.” There's not enough air in her lungs to sigh in relief, but there's also no reason to linger in the sea-witch's presence when she had what she came for. Backing off, she mounts her horse in one swift move. The witch appraises her slowly, taking in the white knuckles wrapped around both the reins and the axe handle. Her pearly-toothed smile widens, even as another ribbon of seaweed falls away and hits the ground. “And know that when you lose, I’ll put you in the water too. Deep where there’s no light. And seven years’ hence, I’ll be able to walk inland so much further with your fiery heart.”

we make a damn good double act
Rating: G | Words: 1030 | Tags: andromaquynh, heist, fluff
Summary: AKA: hey babe, you want to steal some museum exhibits that have been waiting to go home?
@tog-femslashfortnight Friday Prompt: Favourite Trope...Heist Wives
The corridor leading to the researchers' offices is dark, but the lights flicker on one by one while soft footsteps pass underneath. They flip off with a dull thunk once the door at the far end is pushed open. Its hinges give way with a long, loud squeak.
"For someone who shouldn't be here...you're making a lot of noise." Quỳnh says without looking up from the papers spread out all over her desk.
Unperturbed, Andy steps in and takes a good look around the office. There was enough space for three people but judging from the number of chairs crammed behind the desks, there were at least five working out of the office. With blinds drawn down, the shadows spill over the bookshelves and work surfaces packed with odds and ends in an effort make the small room less bland.
"Can't a woman drop by to see her wife hard at work?" Andy leans against the next desk over, taking care not to knock over the teetering files stacked up.
A soft grin curls around her lips and she seems all too relaxed for having snuck in. "So babe, have you got the list?"
Quỳnh makes an irritated noise at the back of her throat and shuffles her papers around. Then the question seems to register, and she looks up to see Andy in her worn, black leather jacket and black jeans with her backpack slung over one shoulder. Although her clothes are as non-descript as ever, there’s the sense of readiness fizzing off her, and her blue eyes spark bright.  
A flicker of worry passes over Quỳnh's face. "What list?"
"Of the exhibits the museum denied repatriation requests for. You know, the list of the ones we're going to steal.”
Hearing the flippancy in her voice, Quỳnh slides back in her chair before frowning. "Thievery, my heart? Is that what you're suggesting here, so openly?" 
Andy raises an eyebrow.  
Quỳnh's pen rolls down her fingers to strike the little wooden placeholder at the edge of her desk with each flick of her wrist. "I. Am. A. Researcher."
Leaning down, Andy makes a show at squinting at it. "Apologies, Dr Quỳnh. Guess I had you mistaken for my wife."
“Oh really?”
“Yeah, she's a bit of a daredevil. She would have thought a little museum heist would be a perfect way to round off the workday."
When Andy steps around her desk and leans in closer to run a finger across the silky fabric on Quỳnh's blazer lapel, she forgets to breathe. The playfulness catches her off guard and Quỳnh's caught up a dozen memories of initiating charades on missions, and although she can't remember exactly how they all went, she grins back and slips her fingers up to gently bat Andy's away.
Andy's eyes drop down again, and there's heat radiating off her flushed cheeks.
"Daredevil?" Quỳnh repeats flatly. Then composure snaps, and she lets out a huff of laughter. "Yes babe, I have the list."
Dropping a kiss on her cheek, Andy laughs along with her.
With a quick sweep of her arm, Quỳnh pushes her files away and pulls out a folded piece of paper from her jacket pocket. Her observations were compiled down into a neat bullet point list with a sketched-out museum map on the reverse where each exhibit was marked out.
"I know we originally planned this to be a covert job but they’re moving some of the pieces at the end of the week." She points them out and then looks at Andy hopefully. "How do you feel about a quick smash and grab? Tonight?"
She knew it was a risky thing to suggest.
They had planned on doing a final sweep and then to use a new exhibition opening on the ground floor as a distraction for their own work. Moving their plans forward would throw all that prep work straight out of the window. So, she's truly surprised when Andy winks and slings her backpack onto the desk.
"I'm glad you asked because I saw the announcement on the website this morning. So, I brought these-" Andy slides the zippers down and pulls out two pairs of black boilersuits and two large, modified sunglasses.  
Curiosity grips Quỳnh. She picks up one of the bulky and strange-looking glasses. It has a rim of LED lights attached to the frames. When she presses a button on the side, it lights up with such a bright light, she has to turn away and switch it off.
Blinking away the colourful, floating after-images in her vision, she asks, "What are these?"
"They'll block the gallery cameras from recording our faces. And with the boilersuits, we'll be unrecognisable. Also, Nile's waiting for us in the car. She said something about a heist playlist, whatever that is."
Reaching for the boilersuit, Quỳnh made sure to press a kiss to her wife's lips. After changing, she slides the glasses on, taking care not to switch on the lights again. "We shouldn't keep Nile waiting for long. Let’s start with the Aksumite pieces in the northwest gallery and work our way around from there.”  
“You always take me to the nicest places.”
The lightness in Andy’s voice makes Quỳnh want to press her against the door and kiss her senseless.
Moments like this no longer creep up on her. They take her by full force and the desire to make up for lost time becomes overwhelming. But the rational corner of her mind now dredged from the sea fully thrives on making plans of future mornings and evenings. It chimes up to remind her that there’s a task they need to complete and pieces of history that need their help to be returned to their rightful places.
So instead, Quỳnh takes Andy’s hand and squeezes her fingers tight before pulling her out of the office. "We should go to the Met next. I heard they've got a chariot from our racing days we could take out for a spin."
Andy tugs her closer to whisper, half in awe and half in delight, "You'd steal a chariot?"
"For you, I would!” Quỳnh replies as they race down the corridor.

I have lost all coherent thought since reading the screenplay but this is all @flightsofwonder fault for mentioning the similarities last night and thank you @hottopicmonk, you have a much better memory than me! 
It is a Tuesday 😉, I am not Lemony Snicket, and this is probably a strange tangent for more andromaquynh declarations of love.
.
I will love you as the honey loves to smother the chopped pistachios, as the fragrant rosewater loves to drip between the crisp pastry layers, and as the last bite loves to be relished. 
I will love you as the wild horses of my homeland love to run free, as the grass loves to be crushed under their powerful hooves, and as the blue skies love to stretch over the horizon each and every day. I will love you as the people of my homeland love the infinite expanse of the steppes, even as they wander further from the old night fires and forget their old gods. 
I will love you as though you are every reason for this immortality, and I will love you as if there is no other reason for it. 
I will love you as the dried dates love to be torn under your teeth while we sit under the night sky and watch the constellations turn over. I will love you as the clasp of your necklace loves the nape of your neck, loves to hold fast and keeps holding the love given all those years ago so close to your heart. 
I will love you as the dagger loves to quietly pierce a tent, and the moon-bathed sword loves to rise in the dead of night, and my mother's labrys loves to fall and end a war. I will love you as brave people love to raise their voices against the cruelty and oppression in a steady push for freedom, while you and I add our battle cries to the din. I will love you as your sharpened arrowheads love their marks, as your bowstring loves the caress of your fingers, and as the quiet recognition in the fallen warrior's eyes loves your soft mercy. 
I will love you as the ochre paint loves finger tips, and as the rain loves to wear down beloved murals, and as the sun loves to bleach the stone. I will love you as our old haunts crumble, as our first tongues fade, and as our memories weaken until there is hardly anything of our pasts before we met. 
I will love you if we turn mortal today or remain immortal forever. I will love you no matter what name you take or the lands we stand on. 
I will love you when the battlefields take all except us, and when the winds blow the deserts clean of their sand, and when the seas and oceans dry up leaving only paths of salt for me to follow you on. I will love you in a world full of immortals or in a world all of our own. This is how I'll love you as this endless existence goes on its unceasing way. 
(+)
I will love you as the sea bed loves the heavy weight of the iron maiden, and as the raging fire loves the laughter of twice-damned witches. I will love you if I see you every day for a millennium, and I will love you if I haven't seen you for five hundred years. I will love you if I see you tomorrow or if you only haunt my dreams. I will love you as you take the last breath from my lungs and the last beat of my heart.

So im in a bad place in life. im existing only and i m struggling in almost every aspect of my life especialy career, like i get hopeless nd Ive got deep issues, heckk knows so many assumptions from childhood ig holding me back from living. Ummm like if im a girl i can't succeed and get a job nd if I do manage to get one ill get lower wages than 'MaLeS' like crap like that, nd idk whats the way to bring the biggest fastest change to my life? Most of the times in 'small or no biggy type manifestatons i actually do get results by affirm ing then forgetting... with 80% success
Hate to say it but only signs in 3D with those things i desperately wish I had. Or partial success then someow the opportunities nd things float away from my reacg. I DESIRE those things but I dont Need them ( im going thru a numb phase rn so im neutral towards these hings. only atm lol) but sometimes when i look at what im doing with myself my life, i feel so bad for this terrible place im in. i feel so baaad for myself like whattt? Why am i being like this? whyyy cant I manifest the better life for myself? Everyone around me keeps commenting on my non-successes especialy ik theyre only reflecting me bcuz I kno I deserve to live better. But what do i do with myself? I want someone to help me, bcuz i keep thinking i can't do things on my own. Lord knows when i got this belief but its clear i do have it
1 whats the way to bring the biggest fastest change to my life? 2 even if it hurts im trying to stop attachjng my worth to what i do or not do or my no-successes. Like the self concept thingy. Anyway the more i do this the more i feel like idc abt anything or anyone like what's the point? Do u relate? and sorry for being so down idk who to turn to in rl. How do i start implementing changes? 3 any big sister advice pleeeease?
Honestly there’s no fast way to do this. Seems like you’re holding on to a lot of negative beliefs and it’s going to take a bit to shift them around. Not that it will take super long, but it’s unrealistic to expect instant results where you currently stand mentally and that comes from a person the preaches instant manifestation.
If you really wish to change you life then do it. Make the decision and stick to it! Everything begins and ends with your mental diet! At the end of the day our thoughts are what manifests so you need to work on your thoughts until they are in line with your desired reality!

**spoilers for sophomores and stagecraft the NYC Fantasy High Live Show**
I never actually got an ask explicitly asking for this recap so I didn’t do one because I’ve been super busy but I wanted to do a quick post on it before I go fully in The Unsleeping City mode. This is all off the top of my head.
I know we kinda knew the gang went back to school after S1 because of the little epilogue they had but that's still so wild. Imagine getting arrested and slaying a dragon and almost dying (and *actually* dying in some cases) and then having to go back and be a Sophomore with a bunch of kids who, as far as we know, have little to no practical experience (except the 7 Maidens who kick ass and not only slayed a dragon but did it for no reason except they felt like it, which is metal as hell).
Sidenote: I was gonna say "a bunch of kids who might as well go to Mumple," and as I was considering it, I realized that it's never actually explained what exactly that school's deal is. But it's such an unpleasantly named school that you're immediately like, "No thanks. Hard pass."
IDK if BDG watched the full FH season before he played or if Brennan just briefed him really well but he matched the tone and the setting from the first word out of his mouth. Him going up to the gang and being like, “You’ve done murder, right?” was just like an instant hall of fame line for me.
And all the regular cast slipped right back into their roles so well. They may not have remembered all of their spells and attacks but they remembered all the character stuff 100%
Possibly my fave line of the night was when Aguefort bamfed out of the room and Siobahn did a little leaning on the fourth wall, “He just did a teleport spell. The rest was flavor.” It was so smooth. 
My headcanon of Adaine’s life being mildly inconvenienced by random visions when she’s trying to, like, have her damn breakfast is validated. 
Oh, the other great Adaine line in this ep was when Falinel was trying to get her back and was like, “I get that you’re a teenager,” and she was like, “Do you?”
Also, I think it’s funny that Brennan didn’t expect Adaine to use the identification spell, even though the whole story hinges on the the gang fighting a monster using a powerful magical item that none of them recognize. 
“Don’t Emily Axford me on the live show.” She’s a verb. I love her so much.
Brennan explains that Fig and Riz are touring and “in deep cover” respectively and, hilariously, no one is very curious about the second thing at all. It’s like, “Same shit as usual.”
So Kristen’s highlights. Because I think doing this person is easiest for my memory.
Kristen is having ANOTHER crisis of faith and, this time, her tentative solution is to change Yes! to Yes? Which doesn’t help at all and arguably makes things worse because now her spirit guardians are a bunch of annoying philosophy majors (because Brennan loves dunking on himself as much as I love dunking on him).
Tracker MVP Line: I feel like if you don’t want to join a cult, Crossfit is a bad call.
Kristen playing the gay card to get Adaine to walk into her room (“Come in and be an ally. Are you an ally?”) and then Ally announcing that she and Tracker are both naked has equivalent energy to that scene in Critical Role where Percy knocks on Vex’s door and Laura gleefully announces that she opens the door buck naked.  
Gorgug is the most naive of the Bad Kids and also most likely has the most comprehensive knowledge of sex stuff which is hilarious to me. The duality of man.
Toss-up favorite Gorgug moments were his constant, “He’s doing it!” to Hargis’s awful acting and him grabbing the wig from Iris and turning into a cloud of gnats wearing tiny wigs (which Brennan allowed at the audiences).  That second thing was such an off the wall bonkers choice. That was like an Emily choice. 
Oh, there was a moment when he got hit by a charm ray and everyone went, “Awwww” and then Zac went, “I’m immune,” and everyone went bonkers. I cannot stress how wild the energy in the room was. 
Also, during Gorgug’s intro when his parents are like, “We’re just super happy you haven’t died and gone to hell yet so far.”
Fabian’s whole conversation with Cathilda about his mom attempting to use the kitchen was gold. 
Likewise, the whole interaction between him and Gilear was AMAZING. Fabian and I had the exact same reaction to hearing his engine was full of bees.
Sidenote, I love that he hates that Gilear is dating his mom and has zero self awareness that he’s doing the exact same thing with Adaine’s sister.
Lou/Fabian wasting good rolls on pure flavor is very on brand. 
The best thing about Fabian is he’s entertaining when he’s succeeding big and he’s entertaining when he’s failing big. 
Oh, my fave Fabian line I think is when Hargis comes in and is like, “You’ve murdered, yes?” and everyone is like yeah except for Kristen and he’s like, “OK but you’ve facilitated a lot of murder. You’ve blessed me to commit murders several times.”
Aguefort totally DESTROYS Gorgug when he tries to point out that maybe the school isn’t being run in the safest way and it’s amazing. 
Also, Brennan as Aguefort prompting everyone to yell, “Chronomancy!” was very fun. 
Truly, the most iconic moments of the session were BDG’s nat 20 roll to fool Iris as Professor Bargis (I can’t believe we got truly the only scenario where that worked because I thought he was doomed), Gorgug making his dex save for petrification (s/o to riz-gukgak) and then throwing out that “to be or not to be”, and Brennan grinning and slowly lowering his laptop screen because Hargis just did a one liner and killed the boss. 
This is really far down for this comment but I really didn’t expect Adaine to pull the wig right when she did and trigger the combat. I mean, if she hadn’t, it would have run even later and I got home pretty late as is, but I really thought there was gonna be at least one conversation between the Id-ing the wig and the fight.
Sidenote: My fave Bad Kid dynamic is that everyone is constantly ganging up on everyone. It’s exactly how I remember all my friend groups in high school being. 
Adaine makes very good use of spells like Tasha’s Hideous Laughter and Ray of Sickness. They’re like her go-to’s and they’re really low level. 
Did Brennan write this villain just the make fellow teen jokes and to have a valid reason to say, “You snatched my wig?” Discuss.
This is way longer than I intended. 
Anyway, as good as it the show was (and it was amazing) the wildest part for me is always gonna be that, after the show, I met Brennan and got confirmation that he has a tumblr, that was his account on that one post, and he is aware that I dunk on him on the regular. Truly not information I thought I was going to get when I started doing these and yet here we are. The internet is wild y’all.

[LOG] Warron: Check in
[In the BWIC chat, jokes about the romance-novel allure of hemoanonymity escalate into several people mock-swooning at Taz’s metaphorical feet. Warron swoops in to declare Taz’s flushed quadrant off-limits and relegate any flushed swooners to “side ho” status. Fearing that she may have crossed a boundary, she gets in touch with Taz privately. Pesterlog with @plaguetrolls.]
