whenever i see "viren and callum are JUST oppositional and have no real similarities" i'm just gonna take it as "oh so you DON'T think callum's ALSO going to break away from aaravos. got it"
(obviously i'm being crude and facetious but if you want callum to break away from aaravos? he's gotta follow in viren's footsteps now - it has to be a parallel. it has to be a similarity now. that's the only choice the show has given us as of s5)

so I've been writing more for reader being separated from most of the chain, with them and one lucky link having the shadow drop them back on earth. and while I've got the main thing going I wanted to try my hand at writing something from the chain's pov after the initial split.
Where are they, Where are they, Where are they, Where are they, they should be here, WHY AREN’T THEY HERE WITH THEM?
What has the shadow done, to their beloved, their precious, the only one who cares about them? They’re gone. They’re gone and it's all that shadows fault.
It could’ve hurt them, why weren’t they fast enough. No, they can’t be hurt, they can’t, they can’t be, they can’t be. It’s all their fault why weren't they fast enough. THEY LET THIS HAPPEN.
There’s no way to tell where that damned portal ended up, no way to tell if their light is safe, no way to tell if they’re even still breathing. They could be dead and it would be all our fault. They shouldn't have been there they should have been closer to the rest of us. Why were they so far away from the camp, why, why, why!?
The only comfort is that a link was with them, why wasn’t that ME, we could protect them better, WE WOULDN’T HAVE LET THIS HAPPEN. IT’S ALL HIS FAULT, HE MUST’VE WANTED THIS.
They have to still be alive, they have to. If they weren’t then what's even the point of them living anymore? Of anyone living, of caring.
No there’s no point in thinking like that, they’re alive they have to be there isn’t any other option. It's only a matter of time until they're found. they'll be safe, and this will NEVER happen again. They won't allow it.

I have very much been feeling completely disillusioned by tumblr and trying to keep up so I am simply not going to and do what I do in times like this!!!! completely withdraw into my hidey hole and hopefully start churning out the most emotionally devastating pieces of life
c'moooon escaping the creative rut!!!

I'm sure many of y'all share a complicated relationship with your birthday for various reasons. Mine is in two days and im always really anxious for it. I hate the limelight and certainly don't want attention on myself and yet at the same time I feel very much upset and unimportant/inconsequential when people forget my birthday or don't really put in an effort to mention it.
It's a double edged sword honestly. Wanting it to pass quickly without too much hubbub and still always feeling some childish hopefulness that it'll be fun this year. I haven't celebrated really since I was 10-12 or so, simply because the 'birthday politics' were so confusing and it was much too stressful, not to mention not really having many friends :') It was also just far too close to christmas, so people never had time anyway. My focus shifted much more to that than anything else after my teens, simply because i could focus on getting other people gifts and stuff :'))

Memories that I still keep in the back of my mind regarding crossover skills between sports...the wall climbing place I used to go to (I go to a new one now) had a parkour set, with a web rope and gymnastics blocks and soft landing pads. I am not good at parkour but I liked flopping around on the landing pads and throwing myself at the blocks and swinging on the bars.
When I was there, a guy was trying to land a forward cartwheel & flip and he would get almost all the way there and then eat shit (it was very funny to watch,) and one of the reasons he kept eating shit was because he'd keep his head ? In a weird spot? I'm not entirely sure how to describe it, but I looked at it and it just. Clicked in my head that he wasn't spot-picking.
So in ballet when you do turns you pick a spot as you are turning and then whip your head around and hit that same looking spot. It allows neater turns and better balance.
And he'd tried, I'm not kidding, like, twenty or thirty times by this point. And every time he'd done it I'd seen him do the head thing. Not tuck in. Not spot.
So I was like. Hey. I know I can't do what you're doing, and I don't know if this is your actual problem, but I think maybe this technique from my dance lessons may help you get fully through your somersault?
And like. He didn't have to trust me. I was like 20! But he did pull his head in and spotted, and flipped (and landed!) and whenever I think about that I think about the crossover in skills between different sports, in getting one skill that makes you better at something so entirely unrelated and how sometimes you don't even realise that something you've learnt somewhere else helps you with this new thing. Which I just think is so cool! And so fun! And how many other physical skills do people have and learn that exist in crossover? Did this ballet technique help him land better in the future too? It fascinates and delights me. New things influenced by old knowledge.
Anyway knowing about the teenage mutant ninja turtles just helped me identify a fraud case at work. 🫡✌️
