Select YRS3 Trailer Thoughts

The trailer for Young Royals season 3 dropped on Wednesday. A lot of people have thoughts, and of course that includes myself. I was feeling nervous posting them on my tumblr, but I think I’d like to try posting them here (where I can’t expect as many eyes or replies) so I can push past the weird shame I was feeling last week about… *checks notes* …publicly having fandom opinions?

*whispers* this is why you are working on your health and wellness, Blue!!!

These are not my complete thoughts about the trailer, but I did want to talk about some moments with Kristina and August. I will put them behind a cut for people who want to avoid trailer spoilers (along with one spoiler for an already posted Heart and Homeland chapter.)

Those are my fandom thoughts for the day! I don’t know if any of my trusted tumblr circle are here reading this but I’m okay with people leaving comments if they wish.

I may also post a brief list with some non-fandom bullet points later. Today is a day I feel accomplished about, and there are things to be proud of.

Weekend bullet points

 Things I accomplished:

• Created this Dreamwidth.
• Met with my book club.
• Ate Ukrainian food for the first time. Honey cake <3
• Did a scary thing and started taking my blood pressure again with the help of my roommate bestie. It’s gotten better for the moment.
• Met my Sunday grading goals.
• Uploaded so many project documents to my course management site.
• Went to the farmer’s market.
• Took a walk.
• Worked on fanfic.
• Mashed up some chickpea salad for rice cake sandwiches and batch-cooked buckwheat in my pressure cooker for later in the week.
• Checked in with my dad on his birthday.
• Started reading the March book for my book club. I don’t like it very much right now but I’m learning from it.

Things I hope to do in the coming days:

• Roast some beets, red onions, and garlic. Then, shave some Brussels sprouts. Serve all of those with the buckwheat.
• Batch cook another whole grain so I can freeze it for the future. Brown rice? Kamut?
• Continue the habit of taking my blood pressure so it isn’t so scary.
• Get more fanfic written.
• Meet my grading and planning goals again without ruminating too much.
• Survive my upcoming big field trip.
