Tumblr: Isn't it funny how Japanese light novels have such improbably long titles? Isn't it weird?
English literature for most of the 17th–19th Centuries:
[Image description – A photograph of a book published in 1810, whose title reads, in full: "A Reviving Cordial for a Sin-Sick Despairing Soul, in the Time of Temptation, Being an Account of the Miraculous Preservation of the Author’s Bodily Life From Many Imminent Dangers; and of the Way in Which the Spirit of God Effected the Deliverance Of His Soul From the State of Nature to the State of Grace. To Which Is Subjoined, the Only Refuge of a Troubled Soul, in the Time of Tribulation and Affliction; or, The Mystery of the Apple-Tree, Explained and Laid Open, in Two Discourses From Cant. ii. 3", by the Rev. James Barry, Minister of the Gospel.]

semicolons are not only for formal essays and anyone who tells you otherwise wants to deprive you of the second most satisfying punctuation mark; do NOT believe them. i promise they get no bitches
#also. semicolons are one of my favorite fiction writing shortcuts#for getting across to the reader in a single sentence#that the character talking is (a) full of themselves with (b) diction so crisp you can tell where the semicolons are#and also (c) is probably some sort of obsessive little freak#writing#punctuation#semicolon

I'm sorry I turned your comma boyfriend into a semicolon. Yeah, he preludes a new thought now. Yeah he's an underutilized punctuation mark.

Headcanon that instead of signing his threats Red Hood uses semicolons liberally (and correctly) because nobody up to their eyeballs in crime in his part of Gotham uses semicolons. ‘Don’t even try to run; I know all of your hideouts’ is a Certified Red Hood Threat. ‘I’m always watching; every minute every second’ is someone impersonating Red Hood.
#this results in a significant increase in the number of people who know how to use semicolons#because the criminals want to know if a message is from hood so they need to take it seriously#and the civilians need to know if an offer to help is genuine or a trick#the semicolon eventually becomes an unreliable way of telling real red hood messages from fake ones#because now everyone knows how to use a semicolon#meanwhile Jason rubs his hands together and gleefully mutters that it’s all going according to keikaku#and by keikaku he means his long term plan to increase literacy rates in crime alley#Red Hood#Jason Todd#DC#DCU#DC Red Hood#punctuation

It really is a shame that Ghost so rarely takes his mask off outside, because he’s made to be seen in the sun, Soap thinks. Privately, quietly.
It’s not his fault Simon has cheekbones like he was sculpted by a loving god. A nose with a broken bump that catches the light just so. Eyelashes that fan over his cheeks as he squints a little from the brightness.
That one’s a particular shame, because his eyes can look red midday, and amber right at dusk; but when he squints he gets this little furrow in his brow. That’s compensation enough for hiding those eyes, since Soap isn’t normally deprived of them.
Sun makes him look healthier, puts some color in his pale cheeks. Soap would bet money that he’d freckle given the time. He’s comforted some by the soft moles speckled on his face, but that’s another kind of torment.
Anytime he sees a hint of them—or really, one particular mark right at the corner of Ghost’s jaw—he wants to reach out and graze them. Feel the blood in his skin, under his own two palms.
Soap resigns himself to looking, and occasionally sketching. It makes him itch for color. He wants to capture it Ghost, in his golden, healthy, human glory.
Maybe it’s better though, to stay in grayscale. ‘Makes the real sight that much more precious.

Saw someone mention Beast!Atsushi's collar on my timeline and got devasted by how pain is such an intricate part of his character and it has such a violently beautiful spin to it in the BEAST universe.
55 minutes explains it better than I can, but pain is consistantly so very important to the little tiger guy; pain is what makes him connect to others and understand them in ways other people might not (looking at you, Lucy Montgomery), it does shape him because that's all he knew, it is also something that makes him know he's alive and Wants to Live (Hi Shibusawa that is your doing), but--
-- but oh my god is BEAST fucking devastating in this regard. He doesn't just hate pain, he actively fears it, yet is constantly tormented by the aforementioned collar. Pain is quite literally all he knows most of the time, it's his ability limitator that quite literally keeps him from losing himself, and he's scared of the very safe net he has (if you can call it that).
Elise also tells him at the end of the book that he doesn't want to die, he just doesn't want to live, and that is potentially the saddest line I've seen Asagiri write because man. What the fuck.
