This Is So Wholesome

This is so wholesome

5 and 11 for Bother Your Askbox?

5. Omg, the last time I wrote someone a letter on paper? Jeez, I think it must’ve been a friend I lost touch with in high school. She moved upstate, and we wrote for awhile before just drifting apart. I wish her well and have fond memories, though! 11. The last song I sang was “Gold Dust” by Tori Amos. I was listening to it in the car on the way home from work yesterday! She’s my favorite musician. Thanks for the asks, cookie! 💛💛💛

Saw this come across my dash thanks to the lovely @triggerlil and had to reblog, as I found it particularly comforting having just come out as nonbinary myself last week. 💛💛💛

There is no scale for nonbinary. There is no ‘not nonbinary enough’. If you’re nonbinary, you’re nonbinary. There isn’t a competition. You don’t need to have ‘this’ amount of dysphoria, or even change your pronouns. You can just be nonbinary. 

I promise you are enough. 

You are whole. 

Reader Tag Game

I was tagged by the amazing @blue-rose-smalls. Thanks for including me! I love tag games. 😊

Hardcover or paperback - I prefer paperback because they’re lighter, easier to store and carry around while reading, and cheaper. I rarely buy books these days, though.

Borrows or buys - I used to buy books like mad. I’ll still buy a physical copy of one I really love that I’ll read over and over, but for the most part I’ve come to rely on the library for any published fiction I consume.

Annotations or pristine pages - I feel physically ill at the thought of writing in a book, so this one was easy.

E-books or physical copies - Again, I rarely buy books anymore, but when I do it’s an even toss up as to which format its going to be. I like e-books for ease of access and space-saving purposes, but having a physical copy is just so satisfying for some reason that I can’t entirely give them up.

Dog ears or bookmarks - People who dog ear books deserve to be drawn and quartered. Horrifying.

Mismatched series or complete set - It bothers me when they’re not matching. I like order in some things, I suppose.

Lend books or keep them to yourself - There’ve been too many instances where I’ve lent someone a book and had it returned damaged or not gotten it back at all, so now no one gets to borrow my books.

Enjoys lit classics or despises them - I love some books that are considered classics, and I outright loathe others. I think it would be rare for this to be a clear cut decision either way.

Browses shops or orders online - I’ve done both avidly in the past. More often than not now it’s browsing online and then seeing if the library has a copy, though.

Unreturned books or clean library records - Hermione would be appalled, but I am terrible at returning things on time.

Rereads or once was enough - I’ll reread my favorites until they’re falling apart, honestly.

Fanfic enthusiast or stickler for canon - People who nitpick about canon compliance in fanfic irritate me, to be honest. It’s fanfiction. None of this is canon compliant, y’all. That’s kind of the whole point.

Deep reader or easily distracted - When I get into something I’m the sort of person you have to call three times to get my attention. The only exception to this is if I’m reading something that I’m not really vibing with. Then I might be a bit easier to pull out of something.

Must read the book before seeing the movie or order doesn’t matter - It really doesn’t matter to me. Sometimes if I’ve read a book before seeing the movie it ruins the movie for me because I’m so annoyed about things they leave out or whatever. If I don’t know ahead of time I can usually at least enjoy the movie for what it is.

Has neat bookshelves or messy bookshelves - I hate clutter, so yeah, my bookshelves are alphabetized by author’s last name and neatly organized.

Skips ahead or resists temptation - I’ll often succumb to impatience and skip ahead, but I nearly always read the whole thing anyway. I don’t care about spoilers.

Guesses the plot twists or never sees them coming - Sometimes I guess ahead of time, and other times I’m just as surprised as anyone else.

This was fun! I’ll tag @triggerlil, @bronwenackeley, @withgreatelan, @sunnyeclipses, @eletriptan, and anyone else who wants to play!

This is amazing! I’m loving this draw in your own style challenge because we’re getting some top quality art out of it, for real! Draco is absolutely gorgeous here. I love his hair, the glasses, everything, and Scorpius is so cute I could just cry. I can’t stop laughing at the ferret in all these. But seriously, @avendell​, this is so beautiful. You do such lovely work! 💛
