What Are Some Clothes That You Tend To Wear Pretty Often??
What are some clothes that you tend to wear pretty often??
Interesting yet an oddly specific question—
A black jacket with a zipper and a high collar—it's not a track jacket or it could be, but I don't use it for that (I'm not sure what to call it? Any ideas as to what its name actually is?), and I'm not sure what type of fabric it is, but it seems smooth and slightly elastic-like.
Second, my white windbreaker has become a given, no question about it. During summer and spring, I bring it everywhere.
Pajamas are a frequently recurring outfit, usually because I don't go out extremely often.
I have a thin, grey sweater with a broken zipper by now, and I still wear it every winter in the house, especially if I've caught a cold.

Slightly niche Modern AU Rafal headcanon (Does anyone agree or have a different take?):
I had a random association and now, I'm almost certain Rafal would enjoy Russian doomer music, even solely for its vibes (assuming he is the fantasy equivalent of a Westerner who only speaks a Germanic language because most fairy tales in SGE are the Germanic ones. Honestly, one thing I wonder about, even if we have evidence of Spanish and other accents' existence, is how the Woods as we've seen them are rather monolingual, probably for plot convenience, but that depiction just strikes me as a little strange, like, too deeply suspect that their world is that unified, all by itself—unless the Storian is to blame as usual—maybe we're not meant to allot it any critical thought...), although I've looked up some English translations of this genre's lyrics and they are rather dark, so that fits him fairly well—unless being silent with his thoughts would be preferable.
Yet, one clarification to make: Even if the music might resonate with him, I think he wouldn't be a fatalist until much later in whatever character progression he'd have. Instead, I see him as a doomsday prepper, in probably a more I-will-live-against-all-odds, Western, literally every-man-for-himself, individualist sense as that might be more in line with his character in canon. He'd be obsessed with survivalism and TEOTWAWKI (The End of the World as We Know It) as a concept.
Here is an example of the music I found—I'm not sure if this is actually representative of the whole and I don't know much about it or the historical context though.
Also, here are some English lyrics from various songs under the cut that I just happened to like:
Again the spring has come, And warming rays of sun Are looking in my cell through window-panes Again the heart will ache The feelings will awake And memory recalls auld days
Those days will come to me And I shall feel and see The girl whom I loved so long ago That girl came and left That girl I can’t forget Her image’s always in my soul.
Vladimir prison-house Сold northern wind My transport came from Tver And all my evil deeds Lie on my heart like heavy weights

Stab me with that stare as i walk by It's like poison in my blood It trips me up just like a stone I'm just sick of people, and they're sick of everything
⸻
My ship is sailing straight ahead, avoiding the land The captain drunk and stubborn He'll protect it till the end Drowning to the right, drowning to the left Not enough lifeboats, there isn't help for everyone Swimming away, I'm swimming away somewhere straight, somewhere away
EDIT: I possibly should have included “Calculated, devious, or seductive” and also “Apathetic” somewhere, so those are two further options. The poll only allows twelve options in total.
I, uh, don't know if you meant in relation to sfgae (somehow) or yourself, but you've been very fern (in relation to this post)
you're, like, super cool
Thank you! (I meant in relation to myself.)
I highly doubt I’m as cool as you think, but I will take it as a win! Unless perversity and being an all-around contrarian is cooler, in which case, I’ll say: I’m uncool and I know it.
How's your love life?? (This isn't meant to be taken seriously) Do with it what you will.
I’ve never had a love life and currently don’t want one. It sounds like too much work.
Send asks? Only if you want to, no pressure.
Also, I won't have any posts for either several days or longer—I've been busy since my classes started.

MOOTS ASSEMBLE.
