Yes, My Name Is Annika!!!

I hate how the best series get cancelled. Like those series had me binge watching the hell out of them. My thoughts would be on them the whole day and yes they get cancelled after the first season.

Mentions : Mixte 1963, My Lady Jane, Deadly Class

I'm 100% sure that Will knows about Thomastair

so. um. the good news is we found your boyfriend. the bad news is that, well, we sort of…dug him up…in the middle of a car park. in leicester (buckley et al. 2013). leicester, yeah. sorry. they demolished the friary he was hastily interred in when henry viii dissolved all the monasteries. you know how it is. and as it turns out, well, shakespeare was…sort of right about him. scoliosis, yeah, sorry (appleby et al. 2014). if it makes you feel any better we analysed his bones and it turns out he had a pretty high-protein diet before he died (lamb et al. 2014). and he drank so much wine that it changed their chemical composition, which we didn't know could actually happen before we analysed him (lamb et al. 2014), so he was having a good time, at least.

THE FORESHADOWING!!!

Pierre Curie died young, she outlived him by several decades.

My heart 💔

Christopher and Grace did end up collaborating like the Curies and revolutionizing communication for shadowhunters

Alastair in ChoG: *snaps at Thomas for calling him by his first name, they are not school boys anymore*

Alastair in CoI: *apparently likes the name Thomas so much he uses it like five times per page*

On a more serious note, he only calls Thomas "Lightwood" in front of the Merry Thieves or when he's trying to mask his insecurity ("speak sense, Lightwood")

If a scene feels flat and you can't figure it out, ask yourself:

• What can MC smell? Is there an ocean breeze, sweat, a cinnamon roll fresh out the oven?

• What can MC hear, besides the dialogue? Is a bird singing, river flowing, a car speeding, clock ticking?

• Can they taste something, even if they're not eating? Previously drunk alcohol or juice, aftertaste of a cigarette, smog, too instense perfume?

• Can they feel something on their skin? Rough clothes or delicate material, blowing wind, an allergy or a rash, grass that theyre laying on?

• What does the character see, besides other characters? Is the room dark or is sunlight coming in nicely? Are the colours vibrant or dull? Are there any plants?

• What's the weather? Is it snowing and the cold is making goosebumps appear on their arms? Is it hot and sweaty and clothes are clinging to their body?

• HOW DOES IT MAKE THEM FEEL? To any of the above.

Do they like the smell of cinnamon rolls or are they weirdos (I'm a weirdo, I don't fit in).

Does the clock ticking calm them down or annoy them?

Do they enjoy the aftertaste of a cig and like how dirty it makes them feel?

Are they sensitive to touch and how their clothing feels on their skin or are they indifferent?

Would they enjoy the scenery more if it was more sunny out, because they're afraid of the darkness?

Do they like it snowy or are they always cold and hate winter?

Come on, give them persoanlity, likes and dislikes, don't be scared to make them people and not only likeable characters.

I'm a bit disappointed that Thomas's tattoo did not make an appearance in Chot...

patiently waiting for cassie to annoynce the shot story collection is called "after hours" and it will follow matthew and the gang's life after chain of thorns.
