cons of being home alone with angina as an adult : you have to make your hot tea, meals yourself + still do all the fronddamn chores pros of being home alone with angina as an adult : you can take the saucepan in bed and eat an entire can of cassoulet by yourself while watching Taiwanese horror movies and no one is going to stop you
Hmm... Not weird, but sweet fact about me : when I was born, my grandma thought the maternity bay was not heated enough and she bought a blue fleece blanket to make sure I was warm. I have never, not for a single night slept without this blankie since that first ever day of my life. So, kudos to grandma for making a very insightful investment lol π When I was a wee kiddo, I'd run around dragging my blankie around me everywhere, so my parents joked that I was helping them dust the floor and said the blankie was my "SerpilliΓ¨re" (Mop). And that's the story of how "Serpi" (Moppie) became my childhood best friend and lifelong doudou π I still cannot sleep without her and take her with me anytime I travel 27 years later π One of her corners is my favourite one to rub my fingers on as a soothing stim (she's become soooo soft there after decades of stimming lmao) and is starting to fall into pieces a bit ^^" But it's funny because the holes there look like she's a pale blue ghost with a face now ! π»

@laeliana asked, and her wish is my command o7 here's a little game : can you find the two Artemis Fowl themed tattoos in this picture ? π (please ignore the 17th century stays I'm working on a costume rn π )
I also have a little oak acorn on my elbow, but finding a way to photograph it would have been a pain in my butt, so that's all you're gonna get π
Opale? Please oh please?
There she is ! π Iβve literally never drawn Opal before, so here goes. There are still a few things Iβd like to tweak in the sketch, but Iβll start coloring it soon I think. There are two βpicturesβ in one because I was inspired by an Ashnikko song. Iβll explain more in due time β¨
Oh hell no.
Merci, mais non merci. Γa sera sans moi.
FOWLDOM HOW WE FEELING
Holly as a half-elf half-goblin, as per Kitsune_Heartβs meta analysis on AO3. I dunno, it speaks to me. Isnβt she cute and feisty ? Just picture Holly, but she can throw fireballs. See ? Perfection.

Meep π³ β¨ Give you and your writing a compliment. Go on now. You know you deserve it. π
Your writing is not too shabby, if I can say so myself π πΆ Do you listen to music while you write? What song have you been playing on loop lately?
Always !! Lately, I've been listening a lot to Prokofiev's Death of Juliet. Most infuriating piece of music ever -- the melody is drop dead gorgeous, but only last for about ten seconds π I need someone to whip up an extended version of that theme !! π€― What's a genre you struggle with as a writer (ex. romance, action, etc.)?
Comedy ! It's so hard to pull off !
Thank you so much bittersuite π
the diagnosis felt damning at first, not gonna lieβ¦ but itβs just a part of who I am. itβs also been helpful, to have a key to help me understand why - why do I always feel so empty and hollow ; why does the simple idea of rejection and abandonment makes me spiral into frenzied panic ; why I canβt seem to love like normal people ; why does cutting red lines in my skin so often feels like the only solution ; why I always seem to see people as my best friends, all the while knowing I am not their best friend - and why that hurts so much. what was helpful was also to see that all of these feelings, they exist within everyone. they are part of the human experience. bpd is just that - human feelings and experiences, with the volume and intensity pushed to the maximum.
itβs painful. stigmatized, too. but in the end, itβs only human.
β¦ itβs hard to be human. but even if it often doesnβt feel like it, I exist. we exist. we are not monsters. we are only human.

But this time, I asked my husband to answer π I was curious to see what would his takes be, and I figured it was worth sharing the thoughts of my best acolyte in AF fanfic writing, my eternal partner in crime β¨ (calling him by his nickname Chat πΈ from now on for ease of reading)
the character πΈ least understands Doodah Day. Chat doesnβt understand what he adds to TLC, as to him in terms of character archetype and motivations he is just a pale rip-off of Mulch, with different βpowersβ. Honorable mention, also in TLC, Qwan : Chat feels that his character should have been a lot more prominent and developed, we never know much about him and he feels like itβs a missed opportunity.
interactions πΈ enjoyed the most Artemis and Foaly ! They are Chatβs all-time favorite duo, he feels like together they should be absolutely unstoppable, and even bigger besties than Artemis & Holly and even Artemis & Butler. Chat finds it sad that their duo is limited to a bratty-yet-friendly rivalry, βwhat wasted potential πΏ". Well, in Pareidolia Agent (next installment of Artemis Experiments Weird), letβs just say Chat and I decided to work on that π
the character who scares πΈ the most Foaly ! Because, most like Tokita in Paprika, he is way too inconsequential and childish for the amount of intellect, resources and power he has. Multiple times in the books, catastrophes happen because Foaly pissed off the wrong people or didnβt anticipate that his inventions might be hijacked and used for evil. Even though he is ultimately a lovely lil guy, Chat feels that Foaly is so immature he is a timebomb waiting to explode, and an absolute danger to everyone.
the character who is mostly like πΈ Artemis, βbecause him and I have way too many flaws in common πΏβ (which is kinda true tbh, dΓ©so pas dΓ©so mon amour)
hottest looks character Vinyaya ! Chat is an absolute sucker for long white silvery hair π€ (which he absolutely insists on telling everyone he once sported himself ! now they are still long but only blonde ^^)
one thing πΈ dislikes about his fave character Artemis lets himself be ridiculed to easily, especially after book 4 - worth noting though that Chat barely considers book 5 to 7 to be canon π And this is one of the main reasons why (yes I sait 5 to 7, that is intentional - Chat has refused to read TLG and claims it simply doesnβt exist)
one thing πΈ likes about his hated character Chat absolutely loves the cold cruelty of Opal murdering Root. To him, she was the most ruthless weβd ever seen any character be in the series at this point, and Rootβs murder shook the status quo in such a dramatic way, hinting at the series shifting towards a darker, more serious tone that he absolutely loved. It didnβt exactly turn out that way, but he still loves TOD for this.
a quote or scene that haunts πΈ Chat adores the first interactions between Artemis and Spiro at the beginning of TEC - how Artemis ruthlessly (and carelessly) mocks Spiro and threatens to completely ruin his career, then how the shift in power happens in the blink of an eye.
a death that left πΈ indifferent Vinyaya, βbecause itβs not canon πΎβ - and because it felt so gratuitous, absurd and useless.
a character πΈ wish died but didnβt Chatβs hot take (that I do kinda share) : Butler should have died in TEC. Chat feels like Artemis learned his lesson too easily, with too little consequences, and that Hollyβs attempt to revive Butler shouldnβt have worked this well. To quote : "Artemisβ fatal flaw is hubris, and he should have paid a higher price for flying too close to the sun ; here, his character evolves without having lost anythingβ. for those who have read Experiments Weird : no comments
πΈβs ship that never sailed Chat isnβt a huge shipper, but after pondering he declared that Holly and Trouble should have been together after TOD. So @ionlymadethissoicouldleaveanask thatβs a win for the Holly/Trouble truthers gang π And thatβs it ! Chat doesnβt have a tumblr but if his takes stir some conversation heβd read and respond with pleasure π
Juliet dyed her hair ! The sketches are getting sloppier and sloppier lol
