I’ve been looking out of a window for eighteen years, dreaming about what I might feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it’s not everything I dreamed it would be?

“How can you say that? Don’t you remember your mother and father at all?“ ”My mother is Ketterdam, she birthed me in the harbor. My father is profit, I honor him daily.“

children ceased to be children when you put a sword in their hands. when you taught them to fight a war, then you armed them and put them on the front lines, they were not children anymore. they were soldiers.

@sixofcrowsnet heist: crimes breaking into the ice court

the ice court had been built to withstand an onslaught of armies, assassins, grisha, and spies. when she’d said as much to kaz, he’d simply replied,  “but it hasn’t been built to keep us out.”

I’m on my phone so I can’t find my GoFundMe post BUT we were finally approved for a unit!

TL;DR my grandfather informed us last minute that he would be moving out of our apartment (changed his mind and decided he’d be moving back to Mexico) so my brother and I have been desperately scrambling to try and apply to places that were within our budget and that had availabilities ASAP. We’ve been staying with our aunt and uncle but you know when your stay’s been too long.

We have most of the moving expenses covered and the security deposit but the property’s expecting first months rent (which we planned for but my car decided to need a new battery and brakes and completely killed me in the process). I love my car but if my job wasn’t as a case manager I’d have left it for a later time.

We need $2,100 to have everything ready for move-in (which is next Friday)!! The total amount is double that and I had to lay down when I got the breakdown but god these property managements take you for everything you got and still expect your soul.

If you could please share this post, or donate!!!, I’d be incredibly happy and emotional and thankful.

GoFundMe link is here.

Death was unpleasant, but it was a familiar and tolerable ache in his chest.
