What I just finished reading:
the riddle-master of hed, which i really liked except for the "hero does a thing and wins the princess as his prize" trope, which has the added bonus of the hero and the princess (well, she's a king's daughter, but no one ever refers to her as "princess") already knowing and being in love with each other. i might have

I demand to see this gif.

You are a reading machine.

[tsuki_no_bara]

i'll just post the whole tumblr post so you can see chris and tom's reactions too. they're cute and you can't see my face. :D

they're short books! and i read during lunch at work, and sometimes when i'm waiting for the train on the way home.

I love those books! She subverts the whole, "Prince does a thing and wins the Princess" trope pretty neatly, and you find out more about how it was set up and why later in Heir of Sea and Fire. :)

Harpist in the Wind is probably the best, though I love them all.

i read the series a loooooong time ago and pretty much all i remember is tristan going to find morgon by ship, which is about where i am in heir of sea and fire, so now i remember "oh right, there's a huge chunk that's basically girls getting shit done", so i feel much better about any more tropes that might appear. i'm really looking forward to finding out what happens, because i've hit the limit for specifics that i can recall.

I am DEEPLY disappointed that you're not linking us to the gifs of your fame!

[tsuki_no_bara]

i'll post the link to tumblr. tom and chris are cute and you can't hear my voice or see the terrible frizz that happened to my hair.

oh! also! i got your postcard! i love that it's beetles to color in, rather than, like, flowers or butterflies or something. insects are different. but yeah, they must expect that we have fine-line pens or pencils with really sharp points. but still, beetles!

[poisontaster]

Thank you! I shall be delighted!

Yay! I really liked that it was a variety of animals to the set; not just "pretty" (in a traditional sense) stuff, but octopi and snails (I really kind of love the snail postcard, I might just keep it for myself) and grasshoppers, etc. My correspondence list contains multitudes.

Well. I had the same "OMG, how am I supposed to color in such fine lines?" dilemma with my coloring book (really, all the 'adult' coloring books seem to have this problem) and I just decided to color in bulk, ignoring the lines wherever I damn well feel like it. It does seem to be the best approach.

Yeah, I want a link, too! (I have very limited Internet, so I'm off tumblr, but I'd go for that.) Cracking up over here about you making Hemsworth History :D

[tsuki_no_bara]

i'll share, never fear! you can come back whenever you have time and internet.

it's probably five minutes' worth of hemsworth history, but yeah. i'm a gif set.

[azewewish]

You should be proud. You made a lot of Hiddlesworth shippers VERY happy. :D

[tsuki_no_bara]

hiddlesworth! i love that. i am unsurprised that there are shippers. and actually, if i can make fangirls happy that's worth a little embarrassment. (i was mortified at myself at the time, seriously.)
