I Am In Severe Distress. I Am Vibing. I Am King Of The World. I Am Bored. I Am Lost At Sea. I Am Making

Being a fan of TBHK is honestly a dream come true because it feels like we're being constantly bombarded with high-quality official content. Like the main series' art and story are already so fleshed out and polished but would you like some more commemorative artwork? Twitter events? AUs? I've never felt so pampered. Like you can feel the passion and care the team has for their series and characters and its so refreshing. We're so blessed, I'm so blessed. Thank you, AidaIro.

have we gotten to the point where we can accept that dark academia tumblr is just the classic lit fandom or are we not ready for that yet

The thing about Jinho is you know how good his voice is, but it still blows you away everytime you hear him sing.

oh to wear dark turtlenecks and oversized blazers, consume unhealthy amounts of coffee, study during rainy nights whilst the moon stares at you, go to long lost ruins of old castles with your friends and make poetry about your secret lover

Emily Dickinson, from a letter to Elizabeth Holland (early November 1865)

What’s REALLY inside the Ravenclaw Common Room

A/N: Not a request, but I thought we all need a pick-me-up today. Enjoy everyone, and feel free to request anything you’d like to see me write about ~

Seriously, do you realize how aesthetically pleasing the common room is?

I mean, like the blues and bronze made you feel like freakin’ royalty once you walk in

the most musical of the the common rooms - there’s soft sound of choir singing because of the magic, and the blue hues really calms you down REAL fast

I am 100% SURE that there’s AROMATHERAPY going on inside the common room:

Me: I don't underline and highlight sentences in a book for nothing. I do that to reflect upon the important things and ideas later so I can better understand the core theme of the book and enrich my knowledge and perspective of life.

Also me: *underlines every time a character 'flung himself on to the sofa' in the Picture of Dorian Gray*

coffee .

autumn breeze, night writing, soft hair, sweater sleeves, golden frames, rainfall, warm lights, candle wax,

misty mornings, love poetry, winding rivers, old newspapers, fresh paint, marble and bronze, happy tears,

red wine .

hungry hands, black velvet, midnight hours, tired eyes, wide smiles, amour, amour, amour ...

types of dark academia

classic academia: beige trench coats, wool sweaters. plaid skirts. think femme fatale, but educated. sobbing in bed late at night over the secret history or dead poets society. tea with milk and sugar. subsequent tea stains.

darkest academia: running through the rain, dimly lit by streetlights. brown tweed jackets, dress shoes. cold fingers and colder gazes. french-pressed black coffee, piping hot. dark, candlelit rooms with ancient wood floors/walls. 

light academia: white cable-knit sweaters, sparkly eyes and foggy glasses. going to art museums and falling in love with every portrait, every sculpture. caressing the petals of a rose, hearing the crinkle of leaves underfoot.

witchy academia: burning candles while reading or doing homework. black turtlenecks, velvet skirts. walking through the forest in autumn. passing a graveyard and feeling a greyish presence. waiting anxiously for samhain.

romantic academia: writing flowery poetry about someone you’ll never speak to (guilty oops). a cozy alizarin sweater, pleated skirts. slow dancing around your room to the beatles. curling up with warm, pallid cups of tea and a book.

scholarly academia: impeccable notes in class. leather bound bags crammed with textbooks and pens. lots of coffee with scones, and even more late nights. a wide vocabulary (that people constantly comment on). lives in the library.

theatre academia: shakespeare, all the time - quoting, reading, praying for a school production of a midsummer nights dream. or the crucible. memorizing lines in the wings. taking on your character’s traits, even outside the theater.
