I finally finished A Kind of Spark and I HIGHLY recommend it! I can’t tell you the times I teared up, smiled, gasped, wanted to slap my computer screen (not a good idea since I just got this one a few months ago, lol.) 

I also wonder how on earth Mrs. Murphy (the teacher) is even qualified to teach children in the first place. I’m not gonna spoil it, but she made me SO MAD! 

Again, I could go on and on and on about it, but while I would love a second season, I am actually happy with the way season one ended, so I’m good either way.

What Leopold and Loeb books (non-fiction & fiction)/movies do you own? And which do you recommend?

ahh thank you so much for asking! the easiest way to do this would be to take a photo of my books, but since they're all over my bookshelf and i don't feel like reorganizing them i'm typing it all out. everything i say about any of these books is just my personal opinion. i always recommend trying things out for yourself and forming your own opinion. 

for non fiction i own: for the thrill of it by simon baatz (and my hardback version has his signature in it against my will), crime of the century by hal higdon, the amazing crime and trial of leopold and loeb by maureen mckernan, leopold and Loeb: a psychiatric study by maurice urstein, evil summer by john theodore, crimes of the century by gilbert geis and leigh bienen (jamie if you're reading this, apparently i had this book all along and didn't know lol), the loeb-leopold case by alvin sellers, life plus 99 years by nathan leopold, the leopold and loeb files by nina Barrett, the story of my life by clarence darrow, retrying leopold and loeb: a neuropsychology perspective, the great trials of clarence darrow by donald mcrae, and i had a copy of leopold and loeb killed bobby franks but threw it away because it was that shit. 

for fiction i own: these violent delights by micah nemerever, the moralist by joshua marcus, the hunting accident, nothing but the night by k.c. krantz, nothing but the night by james yaffe, never the sinner by john logan, little brother fate by mary-carter roberts, dickie and babe: the truth about leopold and loeb by daniel henning, rope by patrick hamilton, homo superiors by l.a. fields, semblance of balance (i had it but i got rid of my copy, i don't remember the author and they don't deserve the effort to look it up), compulsion by meyer levin, and thrill me by stephen dolgnoff. 

for movies i own: compulsion (1959), rope (1948), swoon (1992), american experience: the perfect crime, “hearts of darkness” (an episode about l&l from a crime to remember), “the perfect crime” (an episode from behind mansion walls).

as far as non fiction goes i recommend higdon’s, mckernan’s, urstein’s, and seller’s book. if you want you a lot of information about the case/nathan and richard. retrying leopold and loeb is good as well. so is the leopold and loeb files. i don't recommend evil summer (poor writing and false information), leopold and loeb killed bobby franks (horrible writing and very false information. also the cover looks like something i’d make on picarts), or darrow’s book (only because leopold and loeb are barely mentioned). donald mcrae’s book is fine but again leopold and loeb aren't in it a lot, i didn't learn anything new. for the thrill of it isn't great, lots of inaccuracies and i despise how baatz talks about loeb’s death. nathan’s book is fine but you're not going to get anything about pre-murder/the murder itself. it’s mainly about prison life and is censored a lot. 

as far as fiction goes i recommend: these violent delights (good characters, good plot, nice change), james yaffe’s book (good richard fill in character, i like the dynamic between the two characters), never the sinner (it’s good), dickie and babe...(it’s good as well), rope by patrick hamilton (short but good), and homo superiors (my love. my heart. i adore this book. if you don't read any of the above then just read this one. it’s worth it imo.). i don't at all recommend compulsion (artie and judd are the worst characters ever written), little brother fate (i hate the pedophilia in it), krantz’s book (horrible take on leopold and loeb), thrill me (an even worse take on leopold and loeb), the moralist (i deserve free therapy after reading this book from how bad it is), or semblance of balance (absolutely horrible. hated everything about it. shame on the author for even writing it). 

for the movies i actually enjoyed the compulsion film more than the book. the later part drags so much though. rope is great, i love it. swoon is good too. american experience is probably the best documentary about the case. those two episodes from different shows are something you can skip lol. they're not great. a little entertaining though. the hearts of darkness episode is oddly romantic. krantz would love it.

In the shelf list along the left side of the page, you can also find shelves for other LGBT+ identities, as well as books featuring characters that are disabled, fat, mentally ill, neurodivergent, and people of color.

#accepted

[battle-scarred-raven]

Full name: Dallas Sacramento Vargrove, T’las ‘Vadam (Sangheili name) Nickname/s: California, Cali, Huntingdon, Hunt, Dal, Dally (only to those she’s close with; try that last one when you barely know her, and she’ll probably riper your arm off) Gender: Female Height: 6′2″ (out of armour) Zodiac: Cancer Spoken languages: English, British Sign Language, American Sign Language, Sangheili

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS.

Hair colour: Black with Red highlights Eye colour: Emerald Green (milky green in blind eye) Skintone: Light tan, tends to pale a little if she’s been in her armour a long time. Body type: Toned, heavy boned, kind of androgynous in appearance, even more so in armour. Dominant hand: Right for those rare writing situations, but trained ambidextrous. Posture: Depends on the situation, but mostly arms folded across her chest and casual, possibly leaning on a wall if the situation is really relaxed. Will fold her arms behind her back and stand up straighter in more formal situations. Rarely stands completely straight and to attention unless ordered. Regardless of the situation and her posture, however, she is always ready to leap into action; something that almost always takes others by surprise. Most noticeable feature: Height (for a woman), facial scars and tattoo, blind left eye.

CHILDHOOD.

First words: Ally (as in her brother, Alistar) Siblings: Alistar Harwell (deceased), technically most of the House of Vadam (honourary). She considers her AI, Dias Darrow (aka Digamma), somewhat a sibling too, but their relationship is a little complex. Parents: Evonne Harwell (nee Boardman; mother), Henry Harwell (father) - both deceased Parental involvement: Her mother was killed when she was two, so she was mostly brought up by her father (and brother, when he was older), who was very caring and protective of her, but was often busy trying to keep the family afloat. Unfortunately, her father was also killed in her early teens, meaning that her brother was the closest thing she had to a father while growing up. Even before their father passed, Cali was close to her brother and was devastated when he was killed. Even decades on, though she recalls her father’s wisdom, it is her brother she misses and recalls the most. She also regrets not being able to know her mother.

ADULT LIFE.

Occupation: Mercenary, occasionally plays ambassador between the UNSC and the Swords of Sanghelios, and between the Swords of Sanghelios and any rogue Covenant splinter factions. Current residence: No permanent place of residence as such, unless you count the Pelican dropship she flies in from place to place. She’ll moor up on larger ships for travelling longer distances or space stations if she needs a base to launch from, but she does not like to stay long in one place unless she has to. She only goes planetside if a contract demands it, or when visiting Sanghelios. Close friends: Her AI is probably the closest friend she has left that hasn’t betrayed or abandoned her at this point. She’s also reasonably close with Carolina and Wash. Her and Thel ‘Vadam are professionally close; they do have personal conversations sometimes and both respect each others’ skills, but their relationship is business most of the time. All other friends are verse dependent. Relationship status: Single for the most part, though it does depend on the verse. Driver’s license: No, but she can drive. Thing is, would you want her to? On a side note, she is a registered pilot, though she can’t fly without her AI helping her. Criminal record: Technically no, as she faked her own death. Otherwise she’d be wanted for her activities during Project Freelancer, as well as theft of PFL/UNSC property (her armour, weapons and AI). She’s was also in breach of the Cole Protocol when it was a thing while she was in possession of her Energy Sword/Great Key during her time as a Freelancer, though this matter wasn’t officially recorded.

SEX AND ROMANCE.

Sexual orientation: Pansexual Romantic orientation: Demiromantic Relationship tendencies: Tends not to allow herself to get too emotionally attached to others due to her past experiences of losing people she was close to. In the unlikely event of a relationship starting to blossom, Cali tends to be cautious, almost to the extreme, not because she doesn’t trust her partner but because she’s... been through a lot. She is selfless and had to rely on herself much of her life so having someone care about and want to support her goes against her very nature. She’s not really one to open up either; again, not out of trust issues but due to painful experiences. Patience is key with Cali here; if she opens up (not just romantically either here), consider it an honour, and if you value your life, don’t ever do anything to betray that trust.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Character theme song/s: Shotgun by Trocadero, Faraday from the Red vs Blue Season 13 OST, Warrior by Nina Sublatti Hobbies to pass the time: Cali doesn’t really do hobbies as such. Unless practicing her sword skills counts? Mental illness(es): C-PTSD and PTSD (not officially diagnosed but she definitely shows signs). She also shows signs of survior’s guilt. Previously had issues controlling her temper but that has mellowed out for the most part. Just don’t piss her off. She does her level best to conceal all of this however and you wouldn’t know she had anything wrong with her mentally unless you knew what to look for. Physical illness(es): Not an illness per se but she is blind in her left eye. Part of her right hand is also prosthetic.
