I’m answering this one weeks later but better late than never right?

2. Pretty book covers

yep^ essentially she expected a resounding victory that would give conservatives more seats in parliament, and her more popular backing to go into Brexit negotiations, however, it appears that's not going to happen exactly

Yes, she already had what she needed. Essentially she was looking for a resounding backing so she had more power and leigh-way to act out conservative plans without being constantly challenged that she had no mandate. With the Brexit vote being rejected in Scotland and Northern Ireland and the Brexit vote being so contentious even in England and Wales, she believed her mandate would be stronger if an election was called and the Tories were propped up by the voters. Which evidently, was a mistake

That’s so...cocky of her. And yeah, sounds like its back firing, too. Wow. Another question: She can just call an election because she’s not getting her way? That’s kind of fucked up. I don’t think we have anything like that here in the US. Why is that allowed/what other purpose does it serve? Seems so...disruptive. Is there a limit to the amount of elections that can be called like that?

👎 (I suppose that’s the one you meant?) Ship that you can never see happeningMary and Tom in Downton. And I don’t think they’d go down that road in the show but I’d love it if they would: Regina and Mal in OUAT.

💚 Ship that you secretly likeI’m not sure I’m keeping any ship a secret… I do have a soft spot for Mary & Henry in Downton (and I especially like to post a few gifsets every time someone complains about it on my dash because I am petty).

💣 Ship that pisses you offUnfortunately, Captain Swan pissed me off in S4 and 5 in OUAT and then I stopped watching anyway.

Downton Abbey, that’ll be a surprise to absolutely no one ;-) Unless Little Women also counts as a period drama?

Dan Stevens and Maggie Smith.

Aw thank you - you too :)

What do you do when you’re sad? I’m incredibly self indulgent so normally I wallow and listen to a crying playlist in bed. Although sometimes I go for a walk and that tends to help.

What are some things you do when you can’t sleep? Think? I tend to have a bit of fun with my imagination at night so sometimes I imagine just small life events I’d like to happen or if I was a fairy queen…it depends on my mood.

What was the best (non-romantic) night you’ve had? It took me a while to think of this but I was home alone for the weekend in the summer of 2013. It was a really sunny evening and I watched a film and saw my Granda and everything was good and I was safe and happy.

What kind of covers do you have on your bed? The botanical bed covers from Ikea that everyone has
