that Diana Wynne Jones interview where she’s like “I don’t understand why so many girls are into Howl, it must be because they want the challenge of fixing him” is so optimistic, like DWJ’s out here hoping I at least want to make him a more functional person as if “rogue academic turned melodramatic fashion disaster whose social skills Do Not live up to his own hype” is not a perfectly valid thing to be attracted to 

@corvidscorpse said: People who aren’t morosexual just don’t understand those of us who WANT a complete dumbass

DWJ, a reasonable woman: behold this undesirable man. look at him, he dresses weird and he keeps emotional support spiders and doesn’t even question people moving into his house without asking and he has to reverse psychology himself into doing anything he’s actually supposed to do. 

every morosexual in a 100 mile radius: oh fuck yeah babey

god this isn’t even touching on the fact that Howl is??? apparently??? an ordinary-ass Welshman who was studying spells (????) at the doctoral level and then (somehow???) found a doorway into Actual Magic and promptly moved there to set up shop as a wizard with like five different names and two outfits but still goes home sometimes because he loves his niece and likes to hang out with the rugby lads (still working on processing Howl being a jock but?? okay), because PRESUMABLY all of this is supposed to further illustrate that Howl is an absolutely ridiculous sort of person but all I see is a man who made the exact decision I would make in a millisecond if given the opportunity 

Howl Jenkins is what happens when the overpowered ‘thrust into a fantasy world’ man… is not the main character.

Howl Jenkins is what happens when an a normal man gets thrust into a fantasy setting and is mostly excited to dick around and learn some magic to turn his hair different colors, only to realize to his dismay that being a powerful wizard means that people are going to ask you to actually do shit for them

DWJ, professor’s wife, academic’s daughter, Responsible Eldest Sister who only craves stability and mental acumen: okay so an ABD post doc who hogs the bathroom and lives in filth and is generally five leagues away from recognizing his emotions

Us, disaster bag monsterfuckers: HOT

I didn’t know DWJ’s background and I have to thank you, this explains everything

I was reading this and fully nodding along in agreement before I realized it was my own post jesus h

Non-Welsh people probably need to know that a Welsh person liking and playing rugby does not make them a jock because that point just gave me whiplash

Not the usual kind of photo I post, but I love these sinks! Automatic water, soap, and drying all in one!

I don’t see them often, this one was in a hospital.
