Professional pain in the ass.

I wish Alan's "near-catastrophic accident" was actually touched upon in the shows....

like the 2004 movie kinda included it??? I kinda thought that Alan's incident "blowing up a school" was their universe's equivalent....

*grabs mic and clears throat* Thank you so much @jintaka-hane and @igiulss for tagging me! I love these things and I love you girls! ❤️

Favorite Colors: Black, purple, and red. I was a bit of a goth teen, and my favorite colors never really got to change 😎

Currently Reading: SMUT! *snort* I used to care a lot about what I read, trying to stick to 'good literature' and the classics and all, but I'm now at a stage of my life where I stoped giving a f*ck and now I read what the hell I feel like. Judgment be damned. So I'm going through the ACOTAR series, devouring them like a madwoman. I have Edgar Allan Poe's short stories giving me the stink eye from my nightstand, and I might use him as a palate cleanser after!

Last Song: Oh, I've been cranking the Imperfect soundtrack I created on Spotify to get me in the mood for the next chapter, and the last one that played was, curiously enough, Imperfect by Stone Sour. I can't get enough of Corey Taylor, that man is a God!

Last Film: I barely watch any TV. I read and write in my spare time, so the last movie I saw was in the movie theatre and I took my son, so we got to see the live action of Lilo & Stitch! I enjoyed it a lot! 🥰

Sweet/Salty/Sour: All of them???? I mean... I can't choose! I have a very sweet tooth, but I love sour things... and salty snacks? UGH! Why are you doing this to me??? Gun to the head: sweet!

Tea or Coffee: Coffee. 100% coffee. Expressos, please. Or how we call it here in Portugal: bica. Actually was discussing this with Giuls just yesterday. I need at least 4 of them on a daily basis. 😍

Working On: Too many things at the same time, actually 😆 I'm working on Imperfect, Kid's Meet-Cute and I'm also throwing a few paragraphs for chapter 2 of All of Yourself, as well as trying to plan and write a very challenging longfic for my main account with ships like: SaNami, LawBin, Ace&Vivi and ZoTash.

Favourite colours: specifically the blue and pink on Galarian Ponyta, and any shade of purple

Currently reading: somewhere in the cerulean sea by T.J. Klune

Last song: idk bro I listen to so many😭 we'll just say Humility from the Gorillaz

Last film: pretty sure it was Top Gun

Sweet/salty/sour: uhhhh yes

Tea or coffee: tea, my tummy doesn't agree with coffee

Favourite colours: that one is hard because it changes so much 😭 but off the top of my head right now it’s nice and earthy colours with a little bit of IR blue 😉

Currently reading: well aside from fanfic (which I have read fairly little of in the last few days and weeks) I suppose some of the Thunderbirds comics count? On a technicality of I’ve started but not finished so you could say I’m currently reading we’ve got:

Watership down by Richard Adams

Journeys in the wild by Gavin Thurston

Winter without end by Casimir Laski

The Encyclopaedia of the weird and wonderful by Milo Rossi

Last song: lemme go check Apple Music- crap it was something by AJR but doesn’t give me the song. I’m gonna guess 2085

Last film: I don’t really watch films anymore so I have to think back a loooooong time so I could damn well be Abraham Lincoln vampire hunter (surprisingly fun movie-)

Sweet/salty/sour: it really depends on what mood I’m in

Tea or coffee: I haven’t tried tea for many years but I prefer its smell to coffee’s smell (bad memories). BUT I prefer coffee if it’s in some sort of cold variety. Preferably with additional flavours and stuff

Working on: everything in the universe ever. I have a commission to finish, cupcakes to decorate, prom to get ready for, countless art ideas, I think eleven fanfics (maybe more because my brain doesn’t SHUT UP), my Scott Tracy cosplay and writing my first book.

Tagging time :>

👋 Mutual Quiz Thing 👋

Favourite colours:

The Blues, various shades depending on context but particularly the combo here:

I’m also a sucker for blue sky up through branches of intensely green leaves.

Currently reading:

Eeeeheheh I am one of those with a pile on the side table all of which I am part way through. Which currently contains:

Dragon Riders of Roar - Jenny McLachlan (reading with kiddo)

Silverborn - Jessica Townsend (rereading)

The Chalice of the Gods - Rick Riordan (was so excited for this to be released then something distracted me part way through and I need to get my head back into it)

You took the last bus home - Brian Bilston (kind of constantly dipping into cos poetry)

Temeraire - Naomi Novik (I read this in flurries)

The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry - John Mark Comer (I mostly keep this one here for the ironic aspirational lols. He makes good points but… maybe not written for the adhd brain)

Madly, Deeply - the Alan Rickman Diaries (loved him 🥹)

Inspired - Rachel Held Evans (such a legend. I dip into it when mainstream church leaves me bewildered)

The League of Thieves - Crofton / Tattersdill (it’s a fun new ‘choose your own adventure’ kind of book but I keep dying so need to track back and work out which particular bad choice is the one I need to change)

Last Song:

Legacy soundtrack Ben & Nick Foster was on repeat all yesterday but before that - Unravelling by Muse.

Last film:

Inside Out 2

Sweet/Salty/Sour:

All! Who would pick between these? I’d miss whichever you took away. Give me all the food.

Tea or Coffee?

Come on now…

Working on:

Ummmm a crochet owl, compiling family holiday pictures for photobook gift for family, plotting a Scandinavian adventure for next year. Fanfic-wise - finishing Resurface, some more flyboy-smotherhen diaries and a new little Horizon bros angst about the aftermath of the hydrofoil accident with @tracyislandinmymind.

Gonna add not working on but should be:

Insane laundry pile. Organising my life. Making it possible to access my desk without leaping over piles of stuff. Chasing up referral. Scout leader compulsory training refresher. Sorting stuff for actual trips this year.

Well well well ...

Favourite colours: I love the color honey. Brilliant, beautiful.✨

Currently reading: (The Big Sleep)

Why am I reading it? Because ->Dark and mysterious atmosphere (Noir)

->Sharp and sarcastic dialogues-> Strange and mysterious characters-> A twisty story with family secrets, murder, betrayal, etc. -> It has had a great influence on noir films and modern crime literature. sooo yayyy

Last song: It may be strange, but I just found out about the music video called Boom Boom Tel Aviv, so I can say that this was the last song.💀

Last film: I don't remember... It's been a long time since I saw the movie.

Sweet , salty , sour: sweet!

Tea or coffee: I get sick of tea, especially if it's chamomile tea. So... I'm a real coffee addict, even though it's bad for my heart.

For the tag, I have to say I don't know many people yet. soo ..

Hmm let me see

Favourite colours - depends on my mood - or whatever suits me

I'm currently wearing pink

Currently reading

Would a travel brochure count?

Why am I reading it ?

Well .. to get an idea of where I'll be going and which cabin I'll be staying in

Last song

The best years of our lives - Baha Men

Sweet, salty, sour

Sweet n sour, but not at the same time!

Tea or coffee... tea, but I have a coffee at 11 most days.

I don’t know who has been tagged already so if you have don’t do this and you’re not obligated anyway!

Favourite colours: Blue! A bit of a boring answer, I know, but sometimes you just can’t beat the classics :)

Currently reading: I just started reading Ian Fleming’s Dr No. I’m not very far yet, still on the first chapter. It’s going to be my first James Bond novel! I have seen all the films though.

Why am I reading it: Well, like I just said, I’ve seen all the Bond movies and wanted to start on the novels as well. I know Casino Royal is the first novel in the series, but I just happened to stumble upon this one in my favourite bookshop and they didn’t have any other ones.

Last song: “Psycho” by Muse 🤟🏻

Last movie: The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945). I do love me some classic cinema.

Sweet, salty, sour: Depends on my mood, but I’d say sweet is my most popular choice.

Tea or coffee: TEA!!!! Always! Having a cuppa right now, in fact.
