It seems I have caught my annual cold. Technically it isn’t bad at all but holy shit I hate this so much.

Thank you @i-love-zelda-16 for the tag!

1. If you could choose any animal, which one would you choose to be?

Penguin. Either an emperor or chinstrap penguin to be exact. Emperor penguins get to live in Antarctica (they're the only species to live there year-round so that's cool) so that's already cool as hell and chinstrap penguins can take 2,000 naps a day for about 2 seconds each instead of actually sleeping but they're also just interesting. I fricking love penguins. In case you couldn't tell by my pfp. Or my username. Or any time I've used my blog to spread penguin propaganda (I should do that more).

2. What would you choose if you’re in a hurry and have nothing to wear?

Throw a hoodie on top of it. I've been wearing this really comfortable one all winter that's synthetic (kind of like quick-dry shorts material but softer) on the inside and really baggy and I fricking love it. Like I just throw it on and zip it up and no one ever needs to know that I wear the same 3 shirts on rotation basically all year round. This strategy probably doesn't work as well in the winter or summer since I wear shorts at home all the time even when it's really cold outside and hoodies and summer don't really go together but I'll do it anyway.

3. Are you a witch, vampire, fairy, dryad, siren, or mermaid and why do you think so?

Ooh I'll pick fairy because wings. I used to be able to lucid dream sometimes (I just drop dead asleep nowadays so no more controlling my dreams for me) and my favorite ones were the ones with flying. I also like to make height jokes at my own expense because I think it's funny so hey, I'm not really losing much by becoming 6 inches tall. I don't even care what powers I may or may not have with being a fairy I just wanna fly and be tiny lol.

4. What is your style?

Ok so this has changed a LOT in the past year or so. I used to wear basically all neutral boring colors and stuff for some reason. I HATED the idea of being perceived. Then I had the revelation that I didn't give a shit what people thought so I stole my brother's Zelda shirt (Tears of the Kingdom picture on the back and I wear it proudly) and got around to dying my hair with vaguely blue and then neon red streaks because I love making premeditated impulsive decisions. I'm still kind of limited in terms of pants because I literally have 3 pairs of the same pants I wear all winter and 3 pairs of the same shorts I wear all summer due to sensory issues. I'm trying to find more fun colored shirts and stuff because I'm quite honestly too tired to care what people think anymore and I may as well wear cool stuff.

5. Regular milk or plant based milk?

Regular milk. Partially because I ended up forcing myself to drink a lot of plant based milk at one point in my life and I hated it so I'll probably still hate it for another long while.

6. Which do you put first, milk or cereal?

There is only one right answer to this. You put the fricking cereal in first. If you put the milk in first then the cereal's going to float on top when it's poured in so you're going to have way too much milk and way too little cereal. And then at the end you have to drink the entire bowl's worth of lukewarm milk. Even worse if it's one of those more crumbly cereals that just dissolves when you get it wet and it's a disgusting texture at the bottom. Pouring the cereal first means you get the right cereal to milk ratio AND if you do it right most of the cereal's going to have a little bit of milk in it so none of it's just straight up dry and crunchy. Yes, I'm very passionate about this.

7. Fav way to kill someone?

This one's kinda hard. Personally haven't killed anyone (as far as I know) but if we're talking about writing character deaths you can't go wrong with a good old time loop. I haven't written one yet but this is on my bucket list of things to do. One of these days I'm going to start a time loop longfic. My top three favorite time loop death tropes are as follows in no particular order:

dying when really close to or appearing to have ended the loop

dying to reset the loop when someone gets hurt

dying in a loved one's arms while telling them about the loop

Note that you could technically do all three of these at the same time if you really wanted. But yeah time loop angst just hits different sometimes. I'd like to give an honorable mention to 'having a breakdown when explaining the loop to someone' but it didn't necessarily have dying involved so I turned it into bullet point 3.

Yeah, I've rambled enough so I'm going to pass this on to my moots and anyone else who wants to join in! Not going to tag anyone because I feel bad for spamming people with these oops :|

thankyou for the tag @preposterousray 🖤

get to know your mutuals♡

if you could be any animal which one would you choose to be? (can be fictional) (and you can explain why if you want to) I think I would choose to be a bengal tiger because I have always resonated with them 🐅 <3

what would you choose when you're in a hurry and have nothing to wear?

hm, a black singlet top, fishnet tights and black denim shorts with lace, hair in two spiky buns, eyeshadow and lipgloss, some bracelets and obviously my scoliosis brace but that is a mobility aid lol

are you a witch, vampire, fairy, dryad, siren or a mermaid and why do you think so?

I think either a witch (darkness, chaos, magic, freedom, and power, and animals, besides I’m already into witchery) and a vampire (turning into a bat, flying, supernatural powers, macabre)

what is your style?

idk man I love and admire both gothic fashion and punk-rock fashion. diy, scraps, lace, patches, studs, spikes, fishnets, jewellery, mesh, paint, safety pins, stockings, short skirts and shorts, crop tops, weird hairstyles and makeup, expressing individuality and rebellion and the macabre and unusual — and if I’m being formal then thrifted suit jackets and vampy curly updos ✨

regular milk or plant based milk?

regular milk 🥛

which one do you put first milk or cereal?

milk because I am a psychopath

nah I’m actually kidding I obviously put cereal first I just wanted to annoy whoever was reading this

fav way to kill someone? (idgaf if you never thought of it now you have to think of something and make it at least a bit cool I'm begging)

pull one of their eyes out with my fingers, shove a handkerchief into their eye socket, and then throw them the fuck overboard a ship to drown in the unforgiving sea kaz brekker style

Hell yeah. What doesn’t kill you also makes you not dead so that’s nice.

Legend: WHAT DOESN’T KILL YOU- Legend: majorly injures you and leaves you writhing in pain, an easy target for the next thing to come finish you off.

It's my first time being here on tumblr for a Linked Universe update and oh my gods. I cannot express how incredible it is to see so many people just geeking out over this? I've definitely echo-chambered myself into this slice of the internet but either way, this is such a cool thing we've all got going on here and I wanted to put that thought out into the world. Yes I'm still quite new to tumblr but this community is the reason why I want to be here and contribute to it in the ways that I can. Props to @linkeduniverse for bringing so many people together with this masterpiece. And props to EVERYONE who's been here in the past 9 hours reblogging the update, writing character analyses, making memes, reacting, and just generally being excited about this. And not only for Linked Universe but also thank you to everyone in this corner of the fandom world making goddamn amazing fanfiction, art, comics, headcanons, memes, and everything that I missed.

So yeah, thank you for coming to my TedTalk. Show the amazing people who make this community so great some love. They're awesome. <3

lol I wasn't tagged but :D

5️⃣: Pixal and Zane are the definition of that side ship that everyone loves because they're just consistently amazing <3

My opinion: Dragons Rising is so amazing for doing the little things to explore the psychological toll that 16+ seasons of adventures had! Yay!

Ninjago tag game!

My friend Guplia wanted to be tagged in a game so I'm making one!😊

Rank the opinion of the previous reblog based on how much you agree, with 5️⃣ being strongly agree and 1️⃣ being strongly disagree (3️⃣ being neutral), then write your own!

No bullying please!

My opinion: Skybound was one of the best seasons of the show!🧞‍♂️

I feel so called out and seen by this

Talking with writers online

Their stories: Amazing grammar, soaring vocabulary, beautiful imagery and prose which flows like a river.

In chats: no capitalisation or punctuation, swears like a sailor, misspellings everywhere, acronyms and abbreviations every five words, idek

This is the most inspiring ‘just do the damn thing it’s not that deep’ message I’ve ever seen.

apply for jobs you’re not qualified for! audit upper-level classes! get drunk with your TAs! see that poster advertising that lecture series? go there take notes and ask questions! thank the presenter for talking about this topic you love! if the class is full before you register, email the professor and ask if they can squeeze you in! RAISE YOUR HAND! tell the disability accomodation office to do their goddamn job! ask for help! file complaints! go to class in your pajamas and destroy the reading! you got this! you KNOW you got this! be arrogant enough to learn EVERYTHING! take your meds! punch a velociraptor in the dick! fear is useless and temporary! glory is forever! shed your skin and erupt angel wings! help out! spread your sun!

i had a really good morning! you deserve a really good morning! kill anyone who says you don’t and build a throne from their bones!

I'm currently farming likes for @blueskittlesart apparently. Like I open tumblr and the number of notifications I have for those reblogs specifically is crazy. Every single like on their art is deserved. Their comics absolutely destroyed me. Go check out their work, I swear it's 100% worth your time.

If only I could do this to the fricking combat shrines in TOTK but also maybe I just suck at the game lol

Just a quick reminder: Skyward Sword Link is SCARY in a sword fight

This is actually my second time playing Skyward Sword HD. I do not consider myself a beginner necessarily, but I Did Not Know that I was capable of demolishing mini bosses lol. Years of Lynel training I suppose xD

Also this post was kiiinda made with Linked Universe in mind, but, really, it doesn't have to be about LU. This dude (be it Link, Sky or whatnot) is horrifying in every instance.
