The Dupain-Chengs are visiting family in china and Marinette was allowed one friend to take with her, of course she picked Alya and of course she said yes.

Also Marinette is the queen of bullshitting after being ladybug for, what, 4 years in this timeline?

Sentiments of Great and Indefinite Scale • Chapter 6

Rating: T Chapters: 6/? Fandom: Good Omens, Aziraphale/Crowley Tags: Humor, Fluff, 6000 Years of Pining (Good Omens), Friends to Lovers, Didn’t Know They Were Dating, Oblivious Crowley (Good Omens), The Arrangement (Good Omens), Banter, First Kiss, Love Confession Gone Awry, Eventually, Idiots Flirting at Inopportune Moments, Local Demon Yells at Clouds Summary: Six thousand years of dates and Crowley misses the memo.

Crowley couldn’t shake his nervousness, the thread of anxiety setting him on edge. Aziraphale was way, way too happy to have just been in mortal peril. He lost his fancy little outfit, that ridiculous coat and the breeches and the satin heels with their shining buckles. Aziraphale occasionally still bemoaned the loss of a particularly beloved pair of hose to an incident in a paddock while on assignment in the sixteenth century. He loved his fancy little outfits, and it was gone. All except the cravat.

He should be more upset. Why wasn’t he upset?

Read on AO3 • Start from the beginning

me and two of my best friends of 11 years went to a artsy café for my birthday. on our way back to the subway, my friend noticed some interesting jewelry at an iranian craftswoman's shop. we went in and immediately spotted nice handmade ceramic dishes. and my friends bought me a beautiful yellow bowl decorated with fishes 😭

i'm living my dream life

#that's how you know you're getting older and a parisian bobo #and that your friends are exactly the same #(they bought ceramic coasters with the same fish design for themselves lol) #i fucking love them #my friends my beloved #ceramics my beloved #paris my beloved #lise raconte sa vie

europe is so interesting. they treat me like a cute kid, backpacking across europe at age 21. the next second they ask me why i'm responsible for gun violence in the united states.

#it's just so irritating #after my first night out in barcelona i introduced myself as peruvian exclusively #bc fjweiaofjreaogehw #they care sm abt american ex-pats gentrifying lisbon #(which is a problem) #but they don't care about literally any of the other clear as fucking day problems in their continent #i introduced myself as american #(texan moving to californian) #and then asked for my opinions on anti-queer laws; pro-gun laws; and why i still 'support' the country #i just happen to live therefjewiaofjreioag #this one parisian thought that we never learned abt the renaissance like #how much do u wanna bet they never learned abt any usa renaissances (harlem; french language rebirth in louisiana; etc) #cw: gun violence mention #gun #gun mention #so at least now i know i can't live in europe long-term #dash rambles #tonight is a night to think abt my spain speed-run #and then move on to portugal where hopefully they understand me #if it weren't for the tourism (english-speakers) i would've been in trouble in barcelona bc catalan doesn't sound as spanish-y as it reads

me in paris: it’s crazy how they built an entire immersive experience the size of a city around the cartoon show miraculous ladybug.

#no but for real we’re going to europe at the end of spring!!! #i’m finally gonna see paris! #AND ALSO WE’RE DOING EFTELING!!! #not in paris obv but we’ll be going to amsterdam too #amsterdam i’ve been to before but it will be my husband’s first time #rambling #miraculous ladybug #i’m going to try not to be obnoxious but #how funny would it be if i printed a bunch of ML screencaps to line up with their real world counterparts #like how cringe is that on a scale of 1 to 10 #what if i included some other famous parisian scenes from like #hunchback or phantom or devil weara prada #what if its a picture of epcot’s france pavillion #i’m torn between my need to embarrass my husband and my desire to not be the worst kind of american tourist

Can you spot the Robespierre?

yet another writing ask: 23 and 32 if you would like to <3

Thank you 🙇🙇

23. Dialogue or description? Why is the other one so hard?

GOD. Dialogue is so hard. I get soooo stressed in rpf bc I often want or am including multi-lingual players who do not speak like a generic Californian, and I get real in my head about like...capturing that authentically and sensitively. Like description is easier to deploy meaningfully and if I fuck it up, I find that way more forgivable in myself than like writing a multilingual player and accidentally leaning into stereotypes about speech patterns or ways of expression that aren't True To Nature. and like to be clear this is specifically about non-Canadian/American players, like if I fuck up some American NCAA white jock who gives a shit but if I leaned to stereotypes about like how idk Russians speak, I would just die. and I have done this!!! I look back at some of my old sidgeno works and I'm like this is unforgiveable lol.

I'm poking at a concept with Radim Šimek, who is from Czechia, and I'm stressing sooo bad about his speech patterns and how he expresses himself in interviews vs teammates, particularly after I noticed how obvious it is that he learned in English in the Bay Area, which is not like...a particularly unique version of English, but I've noticed that sometimes the way Bay Area ppl inflect words is absolutely deranged. and like how does that affect how you express yourself yk, and like I'm basing all of this off getting lectured for being lazy in five years of French classes in high school and college, which is not even remotely the same thing

Also. At least once per fic, I have to go through a delete an instance of "hella". That man from Ontario would not fucking say "hella".

32. Do you have a word/expression that you always use in your writing?

Well I absolutely overuse "like" in speech which is what happens when you grow up in California and write primarily in a fandom of white jocks. Also tend to use "sounding strangled" with regularity, but I have never been able to figure out how to execute that specific emotion any other way (I have not tried very hard)

Thank you!!!

#i was not blessed with the polyglot gene. #i was so bad at tests in arabic class that my professor eventually adapted the weekly quizzes #FOR ME SPECIFICALLY so i could just scrape through the class. and then we did the final exam and i BOMBED IT so he gave me #like MASS amounts of extra credit for all the cultural fluency stuff we did. bc i was very good at the engaging with arabic cultures #stuff when it was in english and like a huge part of the class for him was getting all these like affluent liberal arts school kids #who came of age during the iraq war to have broader view of the middle east #he was like you try so fucking hard. i have watched you take pages and pages of notes in class. i have watched you #work studiously in the workbook. but you're so bad at the language. how can someone applying themselves that hard be so bad at it #i'm giving you like 50pts in extra credit on the cultural stuff to make up for it but like. keep trying i guess? #and he gave me a solid B- lmfao he really wanted me to pass #anyway tl;dr on these tags i am not multilingual bc i am so stupid. and that affects how i write ESL/ELL characters. bc i worry so much #i mean maybe the lesson here is apply the facial expressions my french professor would make when i start stringing together sentences #haphazardly and whimsically and eventually getting what i meant across but not in a way that really sparked joy for a parisian yk #cage replies #selkiefinalist

You can pull up any mountain goats song less than two minutes long to induce me with visions and make me destroy all my belongings

#the mountain goats #if you see light #dance music #were what this WAS about #then i looked and found more #faithless bacchant song #choked out #parisian enclave #crows #i have no idea how many there are but. honorable mentions i guess #in the order samsung music wanted to give me

My dad might have given me a lot of trauma. But the fact he didn't give me his old t-shirts is the ultimate betrayal. I can not ever recover from that. I think I'll throw up.

i think iwtv should have louis and one of his european hookups recreate the bedroom scene in thirst (2009) where they keep imagining kang-woo's corpse as being present the whole time, almost like a quasi-third.

#NOT w armand before one of you says that. the point with armand is louis finally feels free #but a guy he meets at a parisian bar yes #iwtv #kaitlin speaks #you can parallels it with how their first time was a quasi-threesome
