fic meme: first and last lines
Rules: go through your last 5 fics and share the first and last line. provide no context.
I was tagged by @ladytharen in this meme awhile ago! I was going to cheat and wait until I'd finished one of my shorter current projects, but realistically it's going to be awhile. Also, the meme seems geared towards complete works, so I'm going with those, with some guesstimations based on final revisions.
whatever we deny or embrace
first line: When Bail and Breha talked of adopting a girl, they always thought of a baby girl. last line: “It’s a very good idea,” she said.
the voices of the sea
first line: The dream always began the same way. last line: Now, she must tell their mother.
The Jedi and the Sith Lord
first line: If Darth Vader did not avoid the sight of his daughter in carbonite, he certainly did not seek it out. last line: “I think not.”
the last day
first line: My dear Edith, I hope you and your brother are well. last line: I’m sorry, I can’t say anything else.
the gift of men
first line: Eldarion had no queen. last line: She had lived over seventy years, and Eldarion had lifetimes ahead of him.
Tagging: @elwing, @kareenvorbarra, @ncfan-1, @irresistible-revolution, @kazaera, if you want to do it!

Thank you so much! <3 Here is a sentence from a Ted Lasso WIP that I'm hopefully posting, like, tonight, if I could stop dicking around on the internet long enough to finish edits! LOL. The story title is "anchor; release." This part is about Michelle visiting Rebecca's house post-canon, the first "she" is Rebecca, and upon reflection I may break this sentence into two (it's been split and rejoined multiple times during this writing process.)
As if to prove her good cheer about the interruption of privacy, she bounded over to the espresso machine and promptly made Michelle a surprisingly good latte, followed by one for herself, the electric kettle abandoned in favor of amicable ex-wife/current partner beverage solidarity, then for Ted and Beard, which she accompanied with a stilted joke about whether she ought to whip some up for Henry and Clare while she was at it (honestly, it humanized Rebecca, knowing she made the occasional dumb joke like the rest of humanity).

I was tagged by @ladytharen in a get-to-know-you meme some time ago (and on a different blog, but I felt more like doing it on this one). Anyway, it's specifically about getting to know you (or rather, me) via five drinks. I'm interpreting this in a mundane way as five drinks I love.
First up: CHAI, and this isn't just the first that came to mind, but definitely #1 on my list. I like a lot of different kinds from a lot of different brands, from loose leaf to powder to concentrate (just not Oregon Chai or Dutch Bros!). Sometimes I use a chai powder as the sweetener for loose leaf chai/a chai tea bag, for Maximum Impact. I have a personalized spice mix to add to whichever one I'm currently drinking (because "spicy" or "spiced" is almost always weaksauce nonsense), and I probably drink 2-3 cups a day.
Second: hot chocolate! My absolute favorite hot chocolate is from Moonstruck in Portland, but as long as it's dark and has a touch of real sugar, I'll probably like it.
Third: Mountain Dew. I drink it (though I don't get it often) as both a caffeine source and because I genuinely love the flavor. Sometimes I mix it with orange juice, too, but you have to get the proportions right or it tastes weird.
Fourth: water! I actually really love water, especially when it's cool but not iced.
Fifth: orange juice. I do like it on its own! And when I'm in the mood, nothing else will really do. I love going out to a restaurant and getting hashbrowns with it and just starting the day that way.
Tagging: @elwing, @kareenvorbarra, @heckofabecca, @steinbecks, @sqbr, and @hoidn

[barreling down the door] john x cameron!
lmao I should've seen this coming 😂
心做し - sou (original by GUMI)
It’s awful; it’s so awful, I’d rather you
Destroy my body, tear it to shreds, do as you please
Even if I scream, squirm and cause my eyelids to swell,
You still hold me tight, you won’t let go,
So it’s okay. (translation credits)
look at the lyrics, need I say more? and the original song was recorded by a vocaloid
send me a character or a ship

for the tropes I'm trying to think of ones I don't think I already know the answer to! so for now: height differences, genre aus (like a modern au), and arranged marrieds to lovers
Height difference:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know
I think of height difference as seasoning, rather than a trope - I like it when it happens to coincide with something I ship, but I don't seek it out on its own.
Genre AUs:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know
Depends on the type! Some AUs (fantasy, most historical) are a FUCK yes, and others (organized crime) are a hard No. Most of them it depends; I'll read them if I trust the writer or it's a rare fandom I'm desperate for anything in.
Arranged married to lovers:
No | rather not | I dunno | I guess | Sure | Yes | FUCK yes | Oh god you don’t even know
There are 20,000 words of this trope in my WIP folder right now.
[ send me a trope and I’ll rate it ]

personally I am waiting with bated breath for the john/aeryn gifset for 1x17 ^_^ "I'd never leave you" has my sword and my bow and my axe etc etc etc
lasjdfls me too tbh, it's such a cute episode for them. they aren't talking about what happened in 1x16 but it's just so present in all their interactions that episode, like something's shifted.

tagged by the wonderful @hondagirll -- thanks, Steph! 💛
last song: Stay by Lisa Loeb
currently reading: re-reading The Mark of Athena, the third Heroes of Olympus book, so I can actually finish the series after that which I somehow never did, and then read the new Percy Jackson book, The Chalice of the Gods. Also currently reading Frankenstein with Elliora for school, and I just put a hold on The Founding Myth, thanks to @katiedora mentioning it in the tags of this post.
last film: I am cracking up because I just realized what AMAZING film @pressdbtwnpages and I watched on YouTube this past weekend: Parent Trap IV: Hawaiian Honeymoon.
youtube
A while back, we realized we were both weirdos who loved that movie as kids and wore out VHS tapes watching it, and somehow we got to talking about it the other day and wondered if anyone had put it on YouTube and some wonderful soul HAD. And even better, it was still hilarious 35 years later.
currently watching:
the US version of Ghosts, which is thus far charming and entertaining
Percy Jackson and the Olympians, A+++
Dimension20's Fantasy High Junior Year on Dropout
Troy just watched S2 of Reacher, which is very action-filled and quippy and not entirely my thing, but I watched it with him and did enjoy getting to see Shannon Kook (aka Grant [Redacted]) in it
perpetually rewatching Elementary and Nancy Drew
currently craving: nothing in particular
currently consuming: coffee
three ships: Nancy/Ace, Percy/Annabeth, Josh/Donna
first ship: probably Maddie/David on Moonlighting, though I did think Bob and Linda on Sesame Street should get married, and I was REALLY into Kit/Nat in The Witch of Blackbird Pond. (hi, @ladytharen!)
favourite colour: sunflower yellow
currently working on: a couple of blankets I'm crocheting, thinking about my next text post edit for Nancy Drew 409, beta-reading some stuff.
tagging: low-key, no-pressure tagging Katie, Kelsey, and Doc whom I already mentioned above, plus some folks from my recent activity @bitchwhoyoukiddin, @floating-in-the-blue, @galathea-snb, @al-the-grammar-geek, @artemistiques, @duskylight, @ryeshept, and anyone else who wants to do this!

I feel as if ANH is a cleaner cut but it has to do a lot of worldbuilding along the way, but marcia lucas also cut together a coherent film. ROTJ is the movie with emotional heights and payoffs, but leia in jabba's palace is a low-low and parts of the ewok sequences drag on for me, so it definitely could have used marcia's touch. (secondary to all of this: my heart is always in ESB!)
I agree! ANH does do a lot of the lifting for the trilogy (and series) as a whole by setting up the world, establishing characters and stakes, etc, without plodding or cutting off the moments it should linger on. And that's heavily influenced by the fantastic editing. ROTJ isn't as well edited, which is partly what I mean by the smoother quality of ANH.
ROTJ, great as many of its moments are, stumbles on its way up; ANH doesn't climb as high IMO but doesn't generally trip over its own feet, either (total agreement on slave Leia, as you know!). That's basically what the discussion with my friend is about.
And I'm with you on ESB—favorite movie of all time etc :D

10. a fic that made you laugh
Leia's voice in no one can stop me, not even gravity or nasa by magneticwave is hilariously acerbic:
At the other end of the connection, Luke is frowning from underneath his overdramatic hood. He’s growing a beard, she thinks--the connection is fuzzy--but it’s coming in patchily and makes him look like the kind of drunk you find dead face-down in a puddle. Han’s people, if you will.
17. a fic that felt like a warm blanket
I love bedsharing fics so much I could rec a whole list of nothing else! This top-tier one definitely feels like a cosy down blanket wrapped around you.
till sunbeams find you by @ladytharen
