brave faces, everyone

hihiii how are u !!!

14. do you collect anything? used to collect different translations of the aeneid... #normal but now not so much ! letters, maybe. i don't have much space for anything really, one year everywhere.. ephemera for my walls if that counts ? poems for another book ^^

[copied] 37. what’s an uncommon/specific /obscure topic you’re interested in? still still still very into the aeneid even though i didn’t go on to do classics or latin at uni </3 we studied it at a-level and this year i had a fascinating class on translation in history where we discussed it more for a few weeks !! book 11 solacia luctus/exigua ingentis you are so special to me

40. what’s the most interesting item you own? my copies of one of: letters from the end of the world/hill house/piranesi/time war. i've lent them to close friends and we annotate them in different colours, sometimes twice each so far. with time in between of course - it's like an extended conversation. sometimes i think about these friendships ending and still coming home to these. it's all mostly with the same friend who i write letters to, but hill house especially has more people involved !!

13. if you had to choose one POSITIVE word to describe yourself, what would it be? sincere for suure. how can we lose !! (easily)

22. who was your childhood favourite music artist? from about 13 onwards i have to admit it was mcr. i was exactly that kind of person i'd listen to mcr, twenty one pilots, patd, everyone you'd imagine.

29. what’s the last outfit you wore? black lowrise bootcut jeans, new rocks, cami and a weird little black loose knit jumper ! + star carabiner, miffy bag...

Same anon here sorry for quick follow-up, but! What should you talk about when you meet a prof for “coffee”? I know she’s interested in lit crit/theory, literature and art. We have those interests in common. But I don’t know the “rules” of such conversation… Wondering if you do?

[a number of questionable stick and pokes. the first: right ankle, outside. jellycat amuseable clementine. i made fast friends with a boy called max, and he drew my jellycat one of the first times he stayed over - he gave me three piercings and then we moved on to tattooing each other, this was my first one.

the second: left upper thigh. outline of a house, no windows. a small figure outside, both with long, dark shadows trailing out at a steep angle.
