29. three songs that you connect with right now.

Gravel to Tempo by Hayley Kiyoko

Past Lives by BØRNS

Where’s your favourite hiding place?

Under my blankets. Or under a willow tree if you wanted a more romantic answer. ;p

What’s the prettiest thing you own?

One of my little birds, I’m not sure what it’s made of but it’s shiny and red/gold/white.

What do you do when it rains?

Jump for joy (or at least think doing so), watch the raindrops with my cat, go outside if possible.

Who’s your favourite artist?

Golly, tough question. My favourite piece of art is usually the last nice thing I’ve seen so it’s hard to say.

What’s your favourite childhood memory?

From this ask meme:

👽  do you Believe? Absolutely. Although, truthfully, I’ve been leaning more towards the interdimensional hypothesis recently.

🦇favorite creatures (real or myth) that go bump in the night? I love ghosts, El Cadejo, and the things you can only catch from the corner of your eye.

⚰️who’s a dead person you’d love to speak to? bonus points if there’s a conspiracy about them that says they aren’t dead! i.e. Elvis, Tupac, etc. Well, the person I really want to talk to is my maternal grandmother. The famous person I’d like to talk to would be Carrie Fisher (just typing that fucking hurts). 

👻have you ever seen a ghost? Okay, I haven’t seen a ghost, but I did talk to my dead great-grandmother on the phone once and I am 100% sure it was her because she accurately told me when my grandpa was going to die.

i like sniff, i feel like he's written as younger than the other characters and like to show you can have flaws and its ok because you're just growing. honestly i just think he's sweet and funny and he's meant to remind us of our younger selves, and I think mb people find him annoying bc of that and how its hard to forgive yourself for mistakes you made when you didnt know any better :/

Nicely put.

I believe it might also help to think of him in the context as a child who has been uprooted from his own life and taken into a place and family that are less familiar to him. Although his adopted family was nice, he’s still far from his comforst zone and naturally most kids in that situation would act out in ways that seem annoying/babyish to someone who doesn’t understand.

:D !

Iced Lemon Tea : Favorite song/band?

“Favorite” is such a difficult concept to me! The song I’m obsessed with most right now is definitely Mitski’s Strawberry Blond, and favorite band/artist has got to be Anais Mitchell.

Iced Coffee : Do you like reading? If so, what’s your favorite book?

I think I spent more of my waking hours as a child reading than literally anything else. Which is to say, yes! And my favorite is The Slow Regard of Silent Things by Patrick Rothfuss.

Jasmine Tea : If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

Right now? Probably Arizona or New Mexico. I got my first taste of desert landscapes a little while ago and I really really want to go back.

Herbal Tea : You’re at a candle shop, what scented candle do you buy?

     autumn asks !!!!

smelly candles: what’s your absolute favorite scent? 

hm, i suppose ultimately it’s the smell of a newly washed blanket.  not the laundry smell exactly, more like the smell of heavy cotton / etc.  it’s so comforting

halloween: if you could dress up as anyone/ anything and pull it off absolutely flawlessly, who/what would it be? 

i don’t have very lofty dreams ;;  i would be perfectly happy if i could pull off wirt.  though, frodo would be a close runner-up, to be honest

fuzzy boots: if you could live in any year/era, which would it be and why? 

it’s dependent on whether i can leave or not. if it’s a permanent move, i’ll be staying right here, or perhaps a few years from now,  just as long as all this technology and medical advances are around.  if it’s temporary, spending some time in ww2 / communist eastern europe would be useful. or pagan eastern europe.  slavic studies is my major so i suppose either would be useful for me to observe, just as long as i can leave with my new information.

windy nights:if you could go to any concert whose would it be? 

lord huron !!!  they’re actually going to be having a concert near me in a few weeks but alas, i’ll have left the state by then for college.  perhaps someday !
