Horpyna & Bohun

picture from a vintage Czech edition of H. Sienkiewicz's novel "With Fire and Sword" ("Ohněm a mečem"), published in Prague, 1919, illustrated by two great Czech artists: Viktor Olíva (1861-1928) and Věnceslav Černý (1865-1936).

The Ukrainian Cossack Heroes, starring in the Polish novel, portrayed by the Czech painters. Welcome to the Slavic world:

I have this one friend, the meeting with whom is always like the sun shining all over my life. Being with her even for a little while, even in a hurry, always lifts me up and brings me joy, puts a huge smile on my face and leaves me positively energized for long after. (And from what I know - it's the same way for her.)

Idk, it's stupid to conflate her and Rowling. They want to make everyone believe that HP is so bad, that it's on par with CH's writing, but it's not, and never will be and they just look stupid. Also, us-centric bc literally no one talks abt CH beyond US

TIL! Thanks for letting me know. That must be why i've never heard of her (that and the fact i'm blessedly not on tik tok i guess).

Horpyna/Helena for the yuletide prompt “sapphic”

1.7k of well mostly porn with a side of feelings; Dubious Consent; Helena is a literal pillow princess, Hoffman should have committed to his choices
