Cause my love is mine, all mine
I love mine, mine, mine
Nothing in the world belongs to me
But my love mine, all mine, all mine 💕
if you don’t remember anything else for the next 4 years, remember this: don’t be a fucking snitch.

10/10 agree. I got recommended this book from a friend and I had to message her and be like, "Why do you hate me?! You only told me to read the first book, so that's all I've bought and now I've got to wait on the Shipping Gods to get it to me quickly!"
The Shepherd King duology showed me what reading top notch quality fantasy feels like. From the world building to the the absolute beauty of every single character. There was not a single flaw in it. It's a masterpiece that should be talked about so much more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
will literally never get over this franchise ִֶָ☾.
⋆˙⟡ made by me!
But interacting with fandoms and getting to see amazing content from so many talented people is such a treat. I can't believe I managed to stay away for so long.
This is not a drill! AHHH!
reading the jurdan scenes in the prisoner's throne has cured my depression and literally every other problem i have ever had
I've ended up falling down a Dramione rabbit hole. I read some really amazing ones (Wait and Hope and Draco Malfoy and The Mortifying Ordeal of Being In Love are probably my favorites, although Measure of a Man was also PHENOMENAL).
However, I've just finished Manacled. It was so well written and absolutely brilliant, but holy shit on a stick if it didn't break my heart.
The alternate ending to the Battle of Hogwarts was worse than even my panicked teenaged brain could have come up with back when Deathly Hallows actually came out. I wept for characters I've always loved in ways I didn't think I could.
I finished the flashback scenes last night and thought about them all morning, until I forced myself to get back into it and read the rest of the story. Which was still devastating. But honestly.
I am currently drowning my sorrows in Meg Cabot's cheerful writing and then I'll have to reread something funny and familiar. All the people telling me they've reread Manacled, like, HOW?! I need a few years away from it before I could think of rereading.
I keep seeing people making fun of using growled, hissed, roared, snarled etc in writing and it’s like.
have you never heard someone speak with the gravel in their voice when they get angry? Because that’s what a growl is.
Have you never heard someone sharply whisper something through the thin space of their teeth? Or when your mother sharply told you to stop it in public as a kid when you were acting up/being too loud? Because that’s what a hiss is.
Have you never heard a man get so blackout angry that their voice BOOMS through the house? Because that’s what a roar is.
Have you never seen someone bare their teeth while talking to accentuate their frustration or anger while speaking with a vicious tone? Because that’s what snarling is.
It’s not meant to be a literal animal noise. For the love of god, not every description is literal. I get some people are genuinely confused, but also some of these people are genuinely unimaginative as fuck.
