My favorite thing about ao3 kudos emails is watching which of my fics have a long steady reading life; of course the extremely popular Thor/Loki remains consistently read, but to my delight several years on my Mechanisms fics continue to get surprising amounts of traffic

K, I kneel before the majesty of your poetry
I really salute the conceptual desire to fuck a human teapot
Do I immediately pine (haha) for the magnificent California trees now I'm gone, absolutely, but also I'm so delighted to be back home, which is a great returning feeling to have after visiting childhood haunts.
HELLO I really must plan a longer CA trip soon so I can see EVERYONE instead of a handful of whirlwind high school friend visits!!
We drove out to the tiny town where I grew up today! The drive was lovely, it was really interesting to see how the town has changed & stayed the same, I'm glad I went, and also I'm glad I went & I don't need to again, y'know?
I love the Sues and Julian is PHENOMENAL
I'm delighted, I love the cast in series 16 so MUCH
I'm SO glad I'm catching up on Taskmaster over the slush, I'm halfway through the second ep of series 16 and I had to pause and cry because I was laughing so hard at the cheeky pictures
It is many hours later & I've just noticed that my phone's autocorrect has invented Tom Hiddleston's less famous twin brother Tim
Speaking of Tim Hiddleston, it was indeed weird to watch the silly Staged sketch that opened the BAFTAs, get Hiddles and David Tennant on the same screen, and feel... nothing in particular. The witches that cursed my dick are obviously two different witches.
No YOU'RE texting your baby coworker outdated celebrity gossip because she's obsessed with Taylor Swift & I'm conversant in the slice that intersects with Tom Hiddleston
I'm sorry you cannot simply fling yourself into the sea today, it sounds ideal
"I'm sure you hear this all the time, but your gums have lots of beautiful healthy stippling" --my dentist, a lovely woman giving me a good grade in teeth etc
Ahhh all your hobbies make me so happy! You really sound like you're pursuing your best life :D
She's SO PERFECT, MARCHY!! (Also great question, the answer is "well they were fortunately dialed WAY down when I was watching Jessica Jones, but here we are again now!")
This is re-prompting me to dust off mine, figure out who everyone is, and maybe attempt something similar! Perhaps I will see you there :)
Ok I do salute the hell out of this attitude, cheers
I may have tried as a bit and started laughing in the middle
Yeah I think that's about where I'm at too
Horrified beeping I will NOT be doing that
Lol are we allowed to say "tweet" on this one, do instead we "post"
Omg Mo all of that is GREAT, it's so cool you're knitting from your own yarn, I'm so so glad you've found helpful meds, & Milly is perfect as always, what a gorgeous lil cutie
Hello it's been several months since I was last on here really, but I miss y'all so I'm perhaps back! Anyway the above tweet is emblematic of the way my brain's only real interests at the moment are Explore Masculinity?? & being accidentally back in all my David Tennant feelings. How are all of YOU
Me, eyeing my patchy facial hair in the mirror: GROW BETTER
Aww hi, thank you! That's really lovely to hear :)
Watched both Fury Road & Pacific Rim this weekend; I love accidentally comparative texts! Did you know they're both very good action movies that never lose sight of the human cost of violence, with dual protagonists who are deeply in love and neatly sidestep any heterosexual nonsense about that
Brand new black and white tattoo of a crow feather on my wrist/inner forearm
Feather feather feather!!
Booked my next tattoo appointment! When I explained that it's a D&D tattoo my artist got SO excited and wanted to tell me all about his last campaign
