I love stories, be they told in film, literature, or music. My favorites are historical, or fantastical. Dissecting things that have happened, or could. Dystopias really get me excited.
Some of my favorite stories are Hunger Games, Chaos Walking, The Hour, Vampire Diaries, Parks and Recreation, Doctor Who, Veronica Mars, and Star Trek.

    I can almost-
    Is that you?
    Is that us?
    Is that what we did?
    Viola?
    Keep calling for me-
    And I’ll keep searching for you-
    And I’ll find you
    You bet yer life on it-
    I’ll find you-
    Keep calling for me, Viola-
    Cuz here I come."

He could do it. Because he can do anything.

Prentisstown isn’t like other towns.
Everyone can hear everyone else’s thoughts in an overwhelming, never-ending stream of Noise. Just a month away from the birthday that will make him a man, Todd and his dog, Manchee- whose thoughts Todd can hear, too, whether he wants to or not- stumble upon an area of complete silence.  They find that in a town where privacy is impossible, something terrible has been hidden- a secret so awful that Todd and Manchee must run for their lives.  But how do you escape when your pursuers can hear your every thought?

    basically the Chaos Walking tag is half whining about the movie, 1/4 quotes from the book, and a little bit of 1017 and Lee hate, with a dash of homophobia.

    ugh the amount of b/s anons i’ve gotten because of that chaos walking post
    idk if the chaos walking fandom knows what an opinion is
    or maybe as some but i wouldn’t be surprised if it was the same person of them stated
    it’s because i’m a thg fan

    For the record I never anon messaged you, I’m not sure what all these messages have said, I don’t encourage anon hate, and I am also a huge THG fan. With that being said…

    Your original post was just “am i the only one who skipped all of spackle 107’s pov or”. Off of that information I can’t be sure if you are joking or exaggerating, or if you honestly didn’t read any of The Return’s chapters, so I went ahead and assumed the latter. As a stance ‘I didn’t read it’ doesn’t travel far. I respect that your opinion was: based off of what you saw of The Return through other character’s povs you didn’t want to read his pov, and that’s fine, spend your limited time on earth reading what you want to read, but I’m going to point out that if you knowingly refrain from reading portions of a book you are not going to fully understand said book. Fandom is a conversation, if you say something publicly (in a fandom tag that fans track) someone is going to respond, be that favorably or not.

    (IF YOU HAVEN’T READ THE CHAOS WALKING TRILOGY, PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST OR BETTER YET READ THE TRILOGY. YOU’LL NEVER REGRET IT. THE BOOKS WILL CONSUME YOU WITH THEIR FLAWLESSNESS.)

    ALL THE FEELS HAVE COME RISING BACK UP BECAUSE OF THE PLAYLIST. I FORGOT WHO MADE IT BUT HERE’S THE TRACKLIST:

    I made the mix and I’m glad you like it :D! The last song is a Todd waking up song (“I from my grave shall rise”), and much of the second half deals with war, though I know I didn’t include a really loud fight song. You’re right, though, I did focus on Todd and Viola, and don’t really have songs for the animals, the Spackle, Lee, etc. You could make a whole mix for each character, they are all so well developed! What songs would you add :)?
