“Starrick is making his move, the piece if Eden is inside Buckingham Palace.” Jacob turns on his heel to face Evie.
“Let him have it,” Jacob mutters shrugging his voice holds a tone of carelessness.
“I’ve seen your handiwork, Jacob; it would be wise to listen!” Jacob tenses, Evie has hit a nerve within him.
“I’m sorry, I’ve been killing Starrick’s men; what have you been doing? Why don’t we ask Henry?”
“Jacob–” Y/N interjects, unable to listen to another of the siblings’ squabbles.
“I’ve been correcting your mistakes,‘Too much haste is too little speed!”
Jacob snaps, lurching at his twin “Don’t you quote father at me!”
“It’s Plato!” The two are seething.
Y/N slams a balled fist against the wall. “Can you two not fight for one minute, or are you so petty to ignore the real issues?” The two collect themselves, watching the Master Assassin with silent respect, like children being scolded.
Jacob clenches his jaw, pressing his lips into a line before storming off the train.
“Y/N–”
“I’ve heard enough of both of you Evie, I’ll be making sure he doesn’t get himself killed in his anger.”
–
Jacob sat, legs hanging off the edge atop Big Ben. He held his head in his hand, pouting. The ghost of a smile crosses Y/N.
Jacob spares a glance, “Here to lecture me like everyone else, are we?”
“Since when am I like everyone else, Jacob?” Y/N jests lightly hoping to calm the reckless assassin.
“Never.” Jacob murmurs, resting his head against their shoulder.
“She’s always been the perfect one.” Jacob sighs, scoffing as his leather clad hand grasps Y/N’s, “Father’s pride and joy.”
“We are assassins Jacob. Everyone has a place of their own. There is a time for grace, studies and stealth–and there is also a time for reckless abandon, and intimidating the masses.” Y/N chuckles lightly against Jacob.
“Thank you.” Jacob lifts his head. Y/N can feel his breath fanning against them, as they press against each other, Y/N throws an arm about Jacob’s neck grasping a handful of his hair. Jacob’s hand comes up to hold them at the small of their back, gauntlet pressing against Y/N. They pull apart, “Perhaps we shall return to the train.” Jacob winks, flinging himself from the clock tower.
“Bastard!” Y/N calls jumping after him. The wind ripping away a laugh.
I was just semi-complaining that I was still looking for a decent way to backup my +6k posts without having to use paid services or even just wordpress (which has an import from tumblr tool that asks for permission to access your blog and also make posts), when I decided to actually put some effort into my google search.
Results were positive: I have successfully backed up my blog*
*By which I mean: everything that I have ever posted. Not included: drafts, queue, likes, followers, following, comments, notes, chat.
I followed this method (word by word), and now have a 450 MB folder on my computer with the name of my blog on it containing:
1. Folder “Archive” (contains .html files listed by month) 2. Folder “Media” (contains gifs and images, mine has +1k files in it; might contain also audios but I have no way of confirming that because I’ve never reblogged an audio post from this blog) 3. Folder “Posts” (contains single .html files, each one a post; I have +4k files in it) 4. Folder “Theme” (contains only my avatar, but it might be a matter of if you have personalized themes or not) 5. .html file “Index” (by opening it it will give you the archive of your blog organized by month; clicking on a month will open up the archive for that month, and you’ll be able to read all the posts for that month as if you were on your blog**, except sans your theme graphic, with each page containing 50 posts)
**I can see gifs, links, embedded videos, tags, number of notes (but I can’t open up the notes, clearly), text is also correctly formatted.
So yeah, in case anyone wants a very quick way to back up their blog, it took me less than 10 minutes.
P.S. I didn’t have any issue, but to be on the safe side always check for spyware and virus threats before and after downloading anything.
this is actually really useful if you have an art blog full of years of work that you otherwise no longer have access to the original files. A lot of the art I have in the early days of my art blog are in that boat. I did this process JUST for that reason and I was pretty astonished at just how many pieces of media it backs up! (literally all of it) Drawings I didn’t even realize were sitting in my archive due to having been posted to text posts or undercuts, or untagged for years! It’s worth it if just for that, even if tumblr isn’t shutting down or deleting your blog.
reference.
This is just for windows users, but just in case some of my followers can use it!
