Elanorpevensie - Dreaming Of A Castle Library

Fic that appears to be an AU where the characters have a little low stakes meet cute and are having a sweet little romance, only for it to be revealed that no, this is in-universe and they both have amnesia and all the other characters are trying to find them and are losing their fucking shit

Who's your Jane Austen roommate?

Inspired by this LOTR roommate post, I present you with the Jane Austen character roommate picker!

Spin it one time only to get your character, and then vote:

@accidental-spice and I are repotting green beans and I accidentally beheaded one of the smallest plants, so now it's the Green (Bean) Knight! In a year and a day it can do the same thing to me, if I manage to plant and grow it properly

Agents of B.A.R.B.I.E. -> Leo & Jemma Fitzsimmons

These Barbies are scientists!

Happy month of May to all who celebrate!!

Okay, today I used the phrase “we don’t want to throw the baby out with the bathwater” in a meeting, and my coworker (who is older than I) started laughing because he’d never heard it before.

Now I’m confused. I thought it was an admittedly old-fashioned but generally understood figure of speech. Am I wrong?

Feel free to reblog so this reaches people with different linguistic backgrounds from my own!

Thinking about this quote in light of Christmas:

"And why, sir, I never thought of that before! We've got—you've got some of the light of it in that star-glass that the Lady gave you! Why, to think of it, we're in the same tale still! It's going on. Don't the great tales never end?"

There's no glass filled with the light of the Christmas star, but the light of the world that arrived at Christmas is still shining in and among us. The tale is going on, now and for always.
