my new hobby is casually bowing out of things by waving my cane around a little

“ I always appear calm to you, do I? ” External appearances could be cruelly deceptive, wholly constructed by replicated Ice shards amassed together to parade an erroneous rendition of an individual. — Which is to say, that the stability, the collectiveness that Matteo sees of him amongst each of their countless rendezvous only conveys a partial narration he personally selects and permits out into the populace. – If only he knew of the actuality that within his mind habituated tumultuous clutter, imperiling to lacerate his sanity, asphyxiating him with breath-purloining anxiety, presenting consecutive twilights of sleeplessness tormented unmercifully by vivid nightmares of wounding those girdled around him, those he cherishes, alike the man before him, with his Evol.

MS Dhoni turns 'umpire’, dances after wide in CSK nets | Cricket News - The Times of India

OH DON’T WORRY I DONT THINK UR COPYING AT ALL! I’m actually really happy that I inspire at least someone to get into things…things are better enjoyed with friends anyway and i’m really happy that we’ve been able to share current interests together, it’s very very fun!

Don’t know if I can go to the dance with her yet because she forgot to ask if im approved

As a teacher who has been chaperoning every school dance for a few years now, I need non-educators to know that the music they play has been the same since 2014. You should hear their screams when they realize Baby by Justin Bieber is playing. If the dj plays a song that has been released after 2015 at least half the kids stand there like 🧍with the exception of one ☝️ artist. Bad bunny

I only recently realized how dance heavy ASOIAF is

Let’s see

. Valyrians - modeled on supermodels, Russian ballet dancers and Chinese classical dancers

. The Reach characters - have some influences from French ballet dancers

. Westerlands characters - have some influences from English ballet dancers

. Dornish characters - modeled on flamenco crossover artists

. Free Cities characters - modeled on Italian ballet dancers, Mediterranean/Middle Eastern crossover folk dancers and belly dancers

. Yi Ti characters - modeled on Chinese ballet/classical/contemporary dancers, martial artists and acrobats

. Jogos Nghai characters - modeled on Mongol dancers and pro wrestlers/equestrians

. Ghiscari characters - modeled on Egyptian folk crossover dancers and belly dancers

. Moraqi lands characters - modeled on Indian folk crossover dancers and martial artists

. Mossovian characters - modeled on Russian ballet dancers and Olympian level athletes, acrobats and martial artists

Yeah so Valyrians, Goetias, Hamephorash and Elves be modeled on those really tall supermodel figures

When I found out how Old Valyria is also inspired by rhe Ars Goetia and the Elves and Angels in LOTR are also inspired by the Shem Hamephorash, it explains EVERYTHING, right down to the aesthetics and such
