This is Shannon's (or Sid because it's shorter) junk drawer filled with Dynasty Warriors, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Avengers, Supernatural, Avatar, Tudors, Borgias, Spartacus, Harry Potter, opinions, shiny things, and anything else. I have a deep love for Shrios, Zevran, Fenris, Destiel, Zutara, Varro, plenty of DW loves, and any other OTPs I stumble into.
Beautiful Words (J, K)

When I call a word beautiful, sometimes it refers to the meaning behind the word. Sometimes it refers to how the word sounds as it rolls over the tongue.

 I just could not find any words that struck a cord in me starting with J or K. Especially K which I know can be such a pretty sound. I’m going to have to go through again and find more words.
