seen a lot of these with your favorites, but reblog with the CURRENT book you are reading, show you are streaming, the last movie you watched, and any game/puzzle/crafts you’re working on
If any one of my posts is to break containment, make it this one.
Before January 2025, download your favorite fics, especially those with smut or queer content.
If Project 2025 goes into effect (which it very likely will now that we have three red branches of government in the US), they may attempt to restrict the use/sharing of media on sites like ao3.
This particularly applies to fics with smut or any type of queer content, because the official Project 2025 document states, "Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children, for instance... has no claim to First Amendment protection... Pornography should be outlawed."
Now, I don't expect ao3 to disappear or go anywhere without a fight, but it's best to be on the safe side these days.
To download your favorite fics:
Go to archiveofourown.org and open the fic you want to download.
At the top right corner, to the right of the 'subscribe' button, is a button that says 'download'. Click it.
A drop-down menu will give you the option to choose the format of your download. Choose your preferred format (.epub and .pdf are my personal favorites -- .epub lets you open a fic in the apple books app and .pdf is compatible with like every device and program out there).
When you click the button for your preferred format, a pop-up window appears confirming your choices. The title of the document will default to the title of the fic, so be aware of that and consider changing conspicuous titles to something ignorable, especially if you share the computer.
You're done! Now do this with all your favorite fics!
Stay safe out there, your favorite characters are rooting for you <3
There's also just years and years of slow burn but that didn't fit
reblog to diminish the horrors from the person you reblogged from
They spend a lot of time in the library. Like a lot. Everyone thinks they're making out but they're just having really long conversations about books and life and everything else.
They love walking around the mall together. Carter shows her his favourite spots and tells her stories of travelling around the world and she just listens and loves it.
Carter falls asleep in Zia's lap.
At first he finds it really embarrassing and Sadie teases him about it for weeks but eventually he just goes with it. Zia secretly loves it too.
Carter always talks a lot on their dates. He's a nerd so he knows something about everything and he just can't stop talking, because Zia actually listens.
Zia loves listening to Carter talk. He will start rambling about anything and everything and most of the time she has no idea what's going on but she just loves listening to his voice.
Sometimes they also just have quiet moments. They just sit together for hours sometimes in the silence, and they don't have to say anything because being together is enough.
They love eating ice cream together. Zia's favourite flavour is mint choc chip, Carter's favourite flavour is dark chocolate.
They both love dark chocolate (unlike sadie who says that anything over 60% isn't chocolate, it's cocoa)
Despite this, they also both have a sweet tooth and often get donuts together.
Zia and Carter both love tea. They always get tea wherever they go. It'll be flaming hot in the middle of summer and Sadie is sipping on an iced coffee while they're drinking tea.
Neither of them like coffee much.
They like to work or study together. They'll go to the Brooklyn house library and they have their own reserved spot where no-one else sits, even when they're gone.
Contrary to most people's expectations, they never go on museum dates. For Carter, they remind him too much of his years travelling the world with his father, and for Zia, they feel like a reminder of her childhood and the normal life she could've had.
Zia can't really cook, but she tries. Carter can't cook anything other than basic travel foods, but he tries for his girlfriend
Carter and Zia make fun of fast food. Then they go eat fast food. Sadie calls them hypocrites and they agree.
They also make fun of american tv shows and movies. Mostly they watch nature documentaries together.
Anyways they're adorable together and everyone at Brooklyn House ships them (as they should)
i hope that one day i will finally be ok….i’ll make a cherry pie when it is all over

If you ever want to talk: My Tumblr ask is always open.
people in fanfiction are so good at identifying v specific smells. I literally struggle to identify vanilla when I’m sniffing a candle labelled “VANILLA” how are these kids getting woodsmoke, rain, mint, and a whiff of byronic despair from a fuckin tshirt
