Part 91 of my bakery “enemies” au!

Kofi

they came for my life with this ending sequence

Et lorsque tu me souris,

le monde entier cesse de tourner.

J’en oublie la parole, 

j’en oublie de respirer,

je ne sais plus qui je suis.

Je ne peux que te contempler.  

And when you smile at me,

the entire world ceases to revolve. 

I forget how to speak,

I forget how to breathe,

I don’t know who I am anymore.

I cannot do anything but gaze at you.

JJK????????????? do it. you would kill it at gojo story!

Yes, JJK is my absolute fixation right now! I would literally LOVE to write Gojo, though I'm terrified I wouldn't do him justice because he is suuuuch a complicated character. I had an arranged marriage au idea in mind, but read Convergence Theory on AO3 and -- I will never ever top that fic, lol. That is one of the best titles of fanfic I have ever read in my lil fic career.

Maybe for funsies one day I'll write a one shot just to dip my toes into the SatoSugu waters. I do enjoy the concept of reader/geto/gojo polyam ship, since I hc those two characters as bisexual.

(Also Gege seriously needs to teach a masterclass of curse usage and techniques because it's like the business models of Succession to me - shit goes right over my head on how the techniques work. I would be so scared to write a JJK era fic but have to write fight scenes lmao.)

GLOSS - Global Language Online Support System

This online resource has tons of resources for lots of different languages, and it is totally free!

There are lots of lessons catered to different levels which tailor vocab practice as well as listening and reading comprehension. I would say that the vocabulary and scenarios are generally more geared up towards security/defence and diplomacy, so if you are studying international relations or something geared towards the international sphere, this may be particularly interesting!

Then you can select different types of activities, which you can download onto your computer as MP3s and PDFs. The activities are categorised based on what skill they train. There are reading and vocab activities that help build up knowledge. Although the topics are pretty specific, they are really useful for getting vocab practice in areas that you are not so familiar with!

The activities are diverse and varied, with explanations for answers that were not correct!

There is also a glossary for all the new words, which has an audio file to listen to the pronunciation by a native speaker. This is particularly useful for self study, especially when contact with native speakers is less frequent.

All in all I really rate the website, the resources are a really great compliment to language studies, and although they are kind of ‘old school’ in their approach, they seem really effective!

the hardest lines ALWAYS come from ao3 fanfics and I stand by this

Mostly thanks to @emilyelizabethfowl (their reblog contains many of the fic links!! thank u sm) and a few deep dives into my ao3 history, the sources of the quotes have mostly all been recovered! I apologise for not posting them all with proper credit originally, I truly didn't think the post would blow up so much, but the lesson is very much learned :) enjoy!

- number 1 is another merthur fic, called Destiny Ordered You To Die, But I Willed You To Live by ironfamjam (apparently also appears in Filling the gaps, a spiderman fic by the same author!)

-The klance one (number 2) is from reach out for you (break these walls) by Paladin-Pile (UserFromPluto)

- number 3 is a batman fic called Home (jason centered) by Daisybirb

- number 4 is a zukka fic by I'm Not Angry Anymore by team_avatars_eyebags

- two are from The Art Of Burning by hella1975, an amazing ongoing atla following zuko (also zukka but it hasn't quite happened yet) - numbers 5 and 9 to be exact

- number 6 is a hualian fic called No paths are bound by cataclysmic_calamity (originally a thread fic but also fully uploaded on ao3)

- number 7 is a merthur fic called tell me every terrible thing you ever did (and let me love you anyway) by Stardustwrites17 (the quote is also originally from a poem by Sade Andria Zabala or Edgar Allen poe apparently)

- The batman one (number 8) is from Nature and Nurture by lurkinglurkerwholurks

- number 10 is from a steddie fic called let me know (everythings alright) by bexiguess (had too dig deep to find this one - the stranger things phase last summer was no joke 😭)

ALSO there is now a part 2 !! (which I swear is better organized)
