Ohh my goodness I love this questionnn! Mmm, I think!

• Pining: absolute best.

• Time travel: younger and older version of a character trading places absolute BANGER.

• Only one bed: give me all the accidental cuddles please.

• Post-break up/Getting back together: the type of angst that hits a very specific and satisfying spot for me.

• Amnesia: same, very good angst.

• Enemies to lovers: YES. YES YES YES.

• Friends to lovers: if done right, FUCK YES.

• Almost MCD: romantic interest rushing to save MC on the verge of dying—YESSSSSSS. Holy fuck it’s everything.

• Forced proximity: absolute best 2.0.

• Jealousy: mmhm. So good.

• Slow burn: obviously.

• Found family: my love.

Thank you for the tag bb !!!!

AHH YESS!!

Do you know the last shadow Puppets too?? And what's your fav album?? If you can pick one because for me that's literally impossible

At the risk of sounding basic, AM is the album I listen to the most. I used to listen to it a lot when I was younger so it’s very nostalgic to me. And it has I Wanna Be Yours which, at the risk of sounding more basic, is like one of my favorite songs of all time. I melt listening to it.

Buttt. I’ve only just recently rediscovered how great Arctic Monkeys is and I’m going through the journey of listening to more of their songs now. It’s been a slow journey because I like soaking in songs to fully appreciate them, but now I feel like I should take this seriously and listen to their albums fully and individually instead of random songs on random days haha.

But yeah, I’m still getting to know them better and I love every song I listen to, but there’s something about AM that just hits different and it’s probably nostalgia. And I had no idea about The Last Shadow Puppets. I looked it up and I was like, wait that sounds exactly like Alex—turns out, it IS Alex! Lmao.

I took some time to check out your blog and I feel ridiculous; you’re actually so cool, WAYYYY cooler than I am. You’re like an old soul and I love it. Also playing guitar is, respectfully, so hot. And David Bowie?? This unlocked a memory too, I used to listen to Rebel Rebel and think of Sirius Black a LOT. Ah, the good old days… But to be honest I’m such a basic girl and I don’t wanna disappoint you by making you think otherwise lmao. But yeah, I'm kinda in this Arctic Monkeys phase right now, listening to them a lot, so I just chose one of their songs to put as my blog title—there’s something about this question “R U Mine?” that’s kinda possessive and desperate and I like it.

Anyway this is too long for no reason. You’re so cool Eli. I’m kinda all over the place when it comes to music. Not that cool, I fear. Let me know your top AM songs if you can choose them haha!

First of all, never ever let anyone reduce you to being "basic", especially not for liking certain things. AM is a really good pick, and I always say things are popular for a reason—it's just that good!! You're not basic for liking it (in fact, I think it's really cool B))

It's great that you're discovering them atm :D I had the same journey (I started out with AM and then I discovered more of their music). I actually think AM is the reason I've gotten into rock music as a whole, because I didn't listen to any rock songs before that.

If you like I Wanna Be Yours, perhaps you'll also like You're so Dark (such a good B-side), or their cover of Baby I'm Yours. Do Me A Favour is also an all time favourite of mine!!

The Last Shadow Puppets are great too, I think I love them equally (with maybe a bit more nostalgia for am). I think you'd really like Sweet Dreams, TN and My Mistakes Were Made For You. But literally all of their songs are great!!

I'm so happy you've mentioned Bowie!! And him + marauders is just the perfect combo.

I honestly think you're way cooler than I am, if anything I'm just a nerd who likes music 😭 I always love to see your posts about the tmr books, it reminds me of myself reading them for the first time :) You have a really active reading style (I mean you think deeper about things and what it all means) and I think that's awesome :D

And thank you sooo much for taking the time to check out my blog and write such a long reply!! It truly made my day :) I

You know what, Eli you’re so right. It’s really popular for a reason!!! But also you’re so nice. And it’s cool that I’m having a similar journey! I’ll listen to all the songs you recommended, thank you!! 🖤 And I’d like to rec you one too: since you’re into guitars, This I Love by Guns N’ Roses has a heavenly guitar solo. Oh my god. It’s really passionate, I think you'll like it.

And YES!! There’s something about the marauders and Bowie. Just thinking about it is making me so nostalgic!

Being a nerd only makes you cooler to me haha. Believe me, I’m just a nerdy ass too. And I’m so glad you like my posts!!! You just made MY day, thank you! :))

Istg we are always online at the same timeeee like woahhh (it’s either that or you’re just always online on here which is maybe more probable bc I pretty much am too)

Anyways what page are you up to in tmr??? And how is it going? Are the plot holes driving you nuts? Are you finding it easy to get through? Gripping?

I’ve been having to reread book 1 lately for fic purposes and I feel like ik that book like the back of my freaking hand now.

Anywho sorry for barging you just checking in! Hope you are well <333

HELLOOOO! Hahhaha what a great ask!!!

I’ve noticed that too!!! (I’m kinda always online distracting myself from real life duties for five minutes whenever I can lmaoo)

I’m on chapter 59, so 4 more to go!! The Creators just showed up…. I don’t think I’ve noticed plot holes yet, but I’d like an explanation for 1. where did Gally go when he disappeared half the book, and 2. how did he know about the Grievers only getting a person a day. Also more consistency in Newt’s injury.

Veryyy easy to get through and gripping. It’s taking me this long cos I’m a veryyy slow reader—may not seem like it cos I’m always kinda here hahhaha but I study, there’re days I have work, I dance, I go to the gym, I cook, I draw, and I watch tv, so too many things!!!!

It’s been a while since my last update cos I’m working on a reallyyyy cool drawing right now, probably tmr related hehe 🤭🤭

But I’m loving book 1! Review to come soon 🫡 Thank you very much for checking in! Hope you’re well too lovelyyy 🥰💜

Oooo or so closeeee u just gotta lock in now and you’re done.

Now I’m just trying to remember how much they explain what happened with Gally 🤔

From what I remember it was just at Wicked’s facility (whoops hope that’s not a spoiler but I mean would know that) but I don’t think you ever rlly know much. Omg imagine a book that’s all Gally’s perspective. I mean there’s probably a fic maybe?? But a book would be cool.

You’ll have to wait until TDC to hear about Newt’s injury 😬 (good luck there babess)

See honestly I think it’s a such a good thing you can pace your self tho. Bc with me when I pick up a book it becomes my LIFE my EVERYTHING and I don’t do anything but read for days until I finish wtv series I’m on. It’s rlly…time stopping and makes me not only unproductive but I have to shut out everyone around me—bc I HAVE to know what happens next. (I also do dance!)

Excited to see ur drawing 🤭🤗

YESSS I’ll finish tomorrow probably!

If Gally was at WICKED I definitely need an explanation lmao how did he end up there!!! Gally’s perspective on things would be really cool, also really angry 😅

I’ve seen the deleted scene where Newt explains what happened 💔 (I’ll still take the good luck however, I’ll for sure need it) What I mean is that sometimes his injury seems to slow him down a lot, and others he seems just fine to keep up with the rest, so I’d appreciate an in depth of what he’s physically feeling at all times 😂 or like for it to be mentioned more at least

HAHHAHAH honestly that’s the best feeling, when you simply can’t stop reading!!!

(Fellow dancer!!!!)
