& whether pigs have wings

not a fandom blog and not often a personal blog, but something maybe in between.

(bbc sherlock; doctor who; cabin pressure; a smattering of other fandoms too. books; cats; owls; sheep; words; history; the universe. clever things; things I like; things I think are pretty.)


fanart & original art is caesuras @ tumblr.


please do enjoy your stay. ♥

some things that don’t particularly matter

My name is xiy and I am sixteen years old. I like books and cats and cuddly things; I like drawing and the universe; I like looking at pictures of stars and derping generally around on the Internet. I take Ancient Greek and hate it, and I play the piano tolerably well. I overuse parentheses and adverbs and the semicolon. I memorize random bits of nineteenth-century English poetry for fun, although these days there’s not been as much time for that as I perhaps would like. I like history and fiction. I’m bad at having opinions.

I have had a largely ordinary life, and mostly it’s been okay.
