Me: Has Never Plagiarized A Paper In My Life, Has Only Ever Used My Own Work, Only Looked At The Required

I would like to congratulate greta thunberg on being the only funny person on twitter

Can’t stop thinking about Cameron and Charlie actually being friends. Like they were roommates, do you know how much potential that has??? So, because I am on a tangent I would like to share a few thoughts:

- Charlie seems like he would be the kind of person to throw pens at Cameron when he wants his attention. So the floor is always littered in pens much to the annoyance of both of them because Cameron won’t pick them up.

-Cameron found out that Charlie could play the saxophone when Charlie would play a single, very loud note when he was too deep into studying and didn’t notice the pens bouncing off his shoulder. 

-They wear roughly the same size of shoes and when in a hurry they’ve been known to accidentally take the others and then complain about it for the rest of the day.

-The rest of the poets are tired™ of their bickering only because they know that it means nothing to either of them 

-I think I may have read this headcanon elsewhere, but them starting a podcast. 

-Their energies would balance it out so nicely, maybe do it on obscure parts of history

-Charlie would bring in snacks and brush the crumbs off his bed, into his hand, and then put them directly onto Camerons pillow. (Cameron would just take off the pillow case because he is sensible like that)

-I want Camerons parents to love Charlie, maybe they’ve met him at the first day of school assembly thing. 

-Better yet Charlie didn’t want to go home for the holidays and instead of admitting it was bothering him to the rest of the poets (and Charlie and mr.perry sounds like a nightmare for neil) Cameron just casually says that he could stay at his house for the break.

-Which creates the power duo that is camerons mom and Charlie. 

-If it was modern day they’d snapchat each other daily 

-Charlie is in the family groupchat 

I got ahead of myself, but anyway. I just love them together as friends and think it is unexplored potential.

Sophie’s Exhaustive Dark Academia List

For a while now, since my dark academia rec list was such an unexpected success, I’ve wanted to create a list of all the dark academia books I’m personally aware of, regardless of whether I have already read them, as sort of a resource for the community. I have now done just that!

The titles in bold are the ones I have read. The ones I would especially recommend (which, okay, yeah, are almost all of the ones I’ve read) are in bold and italics. Note that this doesn’t mean I loved absolutely everything about the recommended book, just that I think it was good or worth reading overall. 

If anybody is aware of a dark academia read that didn’t make the list, please leave a comment and I’ll update the list! Thank you! And thank you to everyone who has already recommended titles to me, helping me compile this list! :)

Also, just to be clear: My personal definition of dark academia would be a story that is set at a school or university or focuses heavily on academia otherwise (maybe the characters are in a secret book or debate club, discuss academic topics, something like that) and in which something bad or dark happens. This could be a crime (violent or non-violent), an accidental death, something supernatural going on… Note: Some of the books on the list (meaning of those I haven’t read) might only fit a looser definition of dark academia, e.g. maybe they have a dark subject matter and include some intellectual elements, even if the setting isn’t actually an academic institution. 

And now, without further ado, enjoy!! As I said, I hope this will be a good resource for the dark academia community! And I want to update this list regularly so that it’s as exhaustive as possible! :)

What your opinions on dinosaurs say about you.

Have fun (it's a long one)

yeah star sign whatever but are you a “what else can i possibly throw in to finally hit this word count”-person or a “the word count actively limits my freedom of expression and only exists because whoever set it fears my unlimited power”-person?
