Sticky lines from fics I've read:
“Adrien still thought that home meant a big, lonely bedroom with barred windows. Chat Noir knew better.”
—"tell me something i don't know" by @carpisuns
"It’s not your fault, Milady. I don’t blame you."
—"Sebben, crudele, mi fai languir (Although, cruel love, you make me languish)" by @komorebirei
“"We’ll be together tomorrow, won’t we?' he asks, moving his face closer to hers on the pillow. She does the same, their foreheads touching.
She says: 'Yes, always.'
Cut to black."
—"tomorrow" by @peachcitt
"Above him, the sky is black. It’s a void of another name, stretching beyond the horizon and swallowing the world in darkness. But it’s not empty, not in the slightest. A dazzling array of stars glitters above him, packed denser than he thought stars could be."
—"make beautiful things" by @aquaquadrant
"Her grief is not gone. Her grief will never be gone. But for now, the Castle of Lions needs a leader, and she is the only one they have. Her grief drives her. It will not be put to rest, and neither will she.
There is a war to win."
—"change of heart" by rythyme (pugglemuggle)
"Some things don’t make any more sense under a microscope. You can spend all night turning them over in your head, and the harder you look, the more they seem to shift, made inscrutable. It’s the difference between observing things and actually living them, maybe. The risk of getting too close."
—"quantum mechanics, smirks, and other complications of the universe" by @amillionsmiles
"This vexing, brilliant, beautiful boy was laughing so hard she couldn’t tell if his cheeks were wet with water or his own tears. Like everything else, he put his whole heart into it."
—"Tu Eres Mi Corazon" by 13Vivacious13
“'Real.'"
—"Real" by @carpisuns
You know when you come across A Line in a book or a fic that just makes you stop in your tracks and let it sink in because it’s so beautiful? Or one that makes you lose your mind and wheeze-laugh for five entire minutes? Or just one that’s said in such an interesting way that you’ll never forget it? I call those “sticky lines.” The ones that stick in your brain for a long, long time after you’ve finished reading, sometimes forever.
Writers, reblog this if you want people to tell you what your sticky lines are! Or feel free to make your own list of favorite sticky lines :)
did Gilmore Girls invent the coffee shop AU
I'm so bitter that we're not getting that Amelia-One season
Septimus Heap has the ultimate found family. You start with the core seven-son family, which is already guaranteed to have at least nine members. Not to mention they have a crazy aunt and at least six uncles, as well as a tree or two.
Throw in an adopted daughter, 1.5 ducks and 0.5 of a cat, the youngest son's adoptive mother/mentor/BFF and semi-adoptive father/kidnapper, the adopted daughter's biological dad, the youngest son's best friend who will someday be the adopted daughter's boyfriend, a ghost uncle, the youngest son's first best friend/adoptive brother from his childhood in the army who is probably also the second oldest son's boyfriend, the youngest son's dragon, and the oldest son's wife.
Oh, and don't forget the ghost uncle's ghost girlfriend, the mother, father, and brother of the oldest son's wife, the second youngest son's girlfriend and her transforming panther, maybe a couple witches (or maybe not), the adopted daughter's ghost mom and ghost grandmother, the oldest son's pet tennis ball, the adopted daughter's pet rock(s), and a centuries-old magical grandpa who you can only see by exiting time.
And we haven't even gotten to the sequel series yet!
That was the most asexual movie I've ever seen and I am here for it.
You can't call someone family until you go stargazing with them.
When Adrien gets out from under Gabriel's thumb, I imagine he's going to wear a bunch of disgustingly unstylish clothes. I don't mean he'll start wearing styles that Gabriel objects to; I mean he'll start wearing styles that everyone objects to.
If you think this looks bad . . . thank you, that's the point
I personally don't see the appeal of dances, but I gotta admit, dancing has some great potential for cool shots.
I think I can now add 'hard light' to my list of blending modes I can use comfortably. (Before this, the only entries on that list were multiply, color dodge, and luminosity. I'm not good with blending modes, ok?)
I'm resisting the temptation to go back through all four seasons of Infinity Train with a notebook, pen, and my writer hat on, because this show is a work of art and I need to analyze every episode five times over to learn how to write well. But I have an AP test in two weeks and now is NOT the time to have another breakdown because of Simon's character arc (dive).
I drew some angsty Adrien Agreste and couldn’t decide which version I prefered, so I’ll just post both.
You can call me Starry! I'm a fan artist and fanfiction writer. She/her, asexual. I'm a huge nerd (and by that, I mean I love math, science, and language). I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Reblog blog is @starryarchitect-reblogs, queer mormon blog is @acemormon.
