going back to my roots……. missing u thea stilton
stop with all this “man cave” and “she shed” nonsense. Its your evil lair. Embrace it
there's still a week left for the funniest possible thing to happen (charles dying before the coronation) like to charge reblog to cast or whatever
so many posts about hating being perceived….. I love being perceived by people who love me
when someone you love tells you something they observe about you and how they like that thing that’s a love language

Hey Nat! I know you gave some recs before for gothic horror/romance books, but do you have any movie recommendations?
OH I SURE DO! period horror movies are my favourite horror genre, i adore them. there is nothing that quite beats an ingenue wandering the halls of a spooky manor in a diaphonous nightdress for me personally on the aesthetics metre! some recommendations (please remember to check websites for trigger warnings!):
- crimson peak. literally one of the most beautiful movies i have ever seen. i adore edith. i rewatch this one constantly. the cinematography, the set design, the costume design . . . agh!!!
- bram stoker's dracula. worth it for the costumes alone but also . . . vampires.
- interview with the vampire. don't bother with queen of the damned, it sucks, but interview is a rare case of the movie being. a good and mostly* faithful adaptation of the book and also being lovely to look at.
- picnic at hanging rock. NOT a romance movie, but very much spooky and lovely. i'm a big fan of the concept of dark academia but not so much the usual execution; however, spooky girls boarding schools and unexplained happenings and sapphic tension . . . those should be featured more. (if you end up liking this one, they're not quite gothic horror/romance but also try the falling and maybe cracks!)
- the innocents (1961) and gaslight (1944), both very pretty to watch and i think important as genre pieces!
- the company of wolves (also read the book of short stories, they're worth it, as is much of angela carter's work!)
- also, obviously, adaptations of famous gothic horror and gothic romances! rebecca (not the new one. don't even bother). the jane eyre from . . . i want to say 2012? dorian gray is not a particularly good adaptation but it IS very pretty. i enjoyed mary shelley quite a lot, which is technically a biography but has a lot of the same gothic horror kind of feeling!
Thinking about how all the ninja's true potential episodes revolved around some form of self discovery/self acceptance except Kai's.
Prime Empire doodle !! I also really wanted to show off my designs for Cole and Nya's avatars because they absolutely did not do them justice in the sets <\3 I have more high tide au stuff on the way but i'm busy being SILLY and WHIMSICAL >:T
anyway I'm! super proud of these designs actually . not to Toot My Own Horn or anything but i wanted to cram as many character references as I could into cole and nya's avatars and i thoroughly enjoy how they turned out! also i slightly altered kai's fit to include the triangle motif
. ty for all the birthday wishes last post btw ^_^ ily guys (platonic. obviously)
THERE WAS GOING TO BE A COWBOY SEASON
THIS WOULD’VE BEEN ABSOLUTELY SICK

being so serious right now ninjago is going to go for like 40 seasons. season 39 will air in 2030 and it will be the greatest season of any television show ever. season 40 will be the worst. they will introduce 1 new character for every new season and then never talk about any of them again. except to bring them all back with one line each in the final season to watch lloyd defeat garmadon again with the power of friendship. 6 people will watch it. no one else will know it exists. it will win an emmy for its music.
ninjago's literally going to have another generation of ppl who are like "THE SHOW'S STILL GOING???" even tho they were around for the wildbrain seasons bc like s2, they all just assumed crystalized was the end of the show and didn't double check whatsoever. This isn't a bad thing btw I think its really funny and we shouldn't tell them until the show has another 12 seasons
