#3 AM ramblings

This feeling of nothingness is gnawing at my bones again.

we have but one life.

why would you read "classical literature" and "philosophy" and "actual books published by world renowned authors" when you can read dramione smut written by a redbull fuelled college student at 3 in the morning

mxtx main characters as drivers

wwx: would be a good driver if he didn't get distracted every 5 minutes and constantly forget where he's supposed to be going (jc swears he does the latter on purpose but doesn't have any proof yet). when he's not distracted hes usually going 5 above the speed limit. has a random playlist for all driving occasions ("why do you have a 'just burnt down a walmart and now I'm on the run' playlist?" "why shouldn't i?")

lwj: the example of the perfect driver. will drive the exact speed limit and will refuse to go a single mile over ("lan zhan please we dont have to drive so slow" "its a school zone.the speed limit is 15" "lan zhan the school has been closed for 10 years pls go faster im begging" "no."). mostly plays classical music, podcasts or the rare romance song while driving

xl: decent driver when he gets the opportunity to drive. goes hard on the brakes bc he scared of hitting someone. will let people cut in front of him bc "they might have somewhere important to be". mostly listens to random radio stations for variety

hc: speed demon unless he's with xl. even then he's still a pretty safe driver. carries sticky notes to rate other drivers skills and put them on their car with notes (no one has gotten over a 7). extremely picky about music while driving, if he hates the song you play your banned from ever playing music in his car again. will always listen to music selections from xl

sy/sqq: hates driving with every fiber of being but still got his license. has extreme road rage and has pulled up next to someone to rage abt their driving to their face (spolier he made them cry). will only drive if he actually needs too, this man is a passenger princess. not too picky abt music surprisingly but doesn't like the volume to be too loud

lbh: very good driver. if you piss him off while driving he will either ride way too close to your bumper and follow you for a short time to freak you out or start driving purposefully slow and refuse to let you pass. Music depends on his mood or the events he has going in that day. date nights will be romance and happy songs, dropping sqq off to hangout out with lqg will be heartbreak/when will my love return songs, returning from a business meeting is loud ass rage music

it lowkey pisses me off when people say Snow hates Katniss just because she reminds him of Lucy Gray

cause like.. no. he hates her because everything she does is a painful reminder that he had a choice.

when she pulled out those berries, he hated that she would rather die with Peeta than leave him behind for a life of glory and wealth.

whilst he was prepared to kill Lucy Gray for the same result.

when she volunteered in her sisters place at the reaping, he hated that she would rather die than leave her sister behind.

because he’d never do the same for Tigris, even though he arguably “owed” Tigris more than Katniss did Primrose.

when she stepped in to stop commander Thread during Gale’s whipping, he hated that she would rather put herself in the crossfire than let him die.

because he had every opportunity to, but he would never do the same for Sejanus. instead he sent him to his grave.

throughout the entire book Snow keeps choosing money and power over love, and throughout the entire book he tries to gaslight himself into thinking he didn’t have a choice.

Katniss’s actions to some extent forced him to confront his own choices. they forced him to realise that if he hadn’t acted the way he did, he could’ve still had the people he loved by his side.

then there’s the obvious thing with her you know, making the gamemakers and the regime look stupid and well, becoming the unwilling symbol of a rebellion but shh

thank you for coming to my TED talk pookies

Ravi: Why is the pizza box a square if the pizza is a circle and the slice is a triangle?

Eddie: *pauses mid-bite to stare at his pizza in confusion*

Chim: Square boxes are easier to make.

Hen: They are also easier to stack.

Buck: Centripetal force makes the dough round.

Ravi, smiling: I love having 3 a.m thoughts around you guys.

i think the most ignorant question you can ask someone who doesn’t desire a romantic relationship is

“But isn’t that lonely?”

As if the absence of intimacy can leave one feeling empty.

As if happiness can only be derived from a romantic partnership.

I wish they could feel the absolute happiness i posses when i walk into a room and find my dog laying on the couch, wagging his tail upon my mere presence.

The comfort i feel from snuggling that tiny dog who fits perfectly against my chest like a parent and their newborn.

The sweet affection my dog gives me. The unconditional love. The fact that i can change as a person, cut my hair, do my makeup, and he is still able to recognize me.

Or perhaps the laughter that fills the kitchen whenever my siblings gather there.

The comfort my father brings me by knowing me so well that at times i wonder how he even managed to figure out the things i never say.

True love is not simply found in a romantic partner.

True love surrounds you.

It is the trees that breathe in carbon so you may breathe oxygen.

The flowers that bloom and seeds that fall to continue the cycle of their life.

Love is the wind blowing your hair into your face in an absurd caress that feels invasive.

Love is the sun and moon that constantly rise and fall to show the contrast of night and day.

People who think so true that love can only be found in romance believe that i live in a simple and sad reality, but they can’t even manage to find love in the simple act of living.

I pity them, more than they could ever pity me.

Transformer One Time Travel AU

(But it’s not Optimus or Megatron who are doing the time traveling.)

Bumblebee:

This version of future Bee has seen the devastating effects of war and already lost his voice after encountering Megatron. Even though his current life is by no means great, at least he has his friends to accompany him. So, waking up once again in that dreadful place, surrounded by those lifeless figures, is going to send him into a mental breakdown and denial.

Was everything real or was it made up from his imagination ?

Luckily, Bumblebee still has his trusty old Steve, which he quickly dismantles for the optic/emergency message. It is then that Bee realizes he doesn’t have a plan and no prior knowledge about where his friends might be, except for the fact that they were miners.

But walking through this blindly would be terrible, and moments like this make him wish that Elita or Optimus were with him because they would know what to do, right?

So, the first step is to find them, which isn’t that hard since Orion is pretty famous for his antics.

The encounter between the two was more like an accident, where Bee came across an Orion being chased by the guards, leading to Bee rescuing him. Since then, he just kind of hung around.

From another perspective, Orion just brought back a mysterious mech after one of his trips to the Archive. D-16 is really skeptical about the mech, especially one that keeps speaking cryptically and encouraging Orion’s reckless behavior (Dee is also jealous).

Bee, on the other hand, knew he couldn’t go to the surface alone, but letting things play out like in the original timeline is certainly a big no. So, Bumblebee tries to warn everyone, especially D-16, about Sentinel's treachery. Even if such notions are usually dismissed.

Did I mention most other miners suspect bee was somekind of special agent sent to moniter them with his uncanny knowledge about every one even though he is a stranger to them. Plus his ability to fight and move around in silent seem like some thing gain through training and not natural like D-16 strength.

His appearance also caught Elita’s attention since he kept hanging around her mining squadron. Maybe she was the first Bee told about the future, and while Elita doesn’t believe most of it, she agrees to help out.

The plan is to get both Orion and Dee together, because nothing love couldn’t fix, right?

Time passed by, and that mining tunnel still collapsed, leading to Elita getting demoted (Bee felt guilty for not warning her about it). The Iacon 5000 happens, and Bee participates as well.

So, when Dee and Pax get thrown down to the sub level 50, they’re thrown down along with Bee. At that moment, Bee tells them everything and just hopes for the best.

Things continue like they did in canon, but Dee is angry and in denial throughout the whole journey. That leads to him being slightly calmer after receiving his cog because he’s already blown off the steam.

It was partly the result of Bee and Elita combining their efforts to get their idiots to talk it out instead of letting them resolve it themselves.

The rest follows canon, but Dee doesn’t rip Sentinel in half, even though the guy almost kills Orion in this timeline (because Pax getting killed and becoming a Prime is a canon event and cannot be avoided).

Then Optimus and Megatron (D-16 changes his name after Optimus gives him the Megatronus T-cog) rule alongside each other.

Elita is up next on the list

Imagine suddenly throwing yourself headfirst into a fandom (Hades)—a game you didn’t even know existed two days ago—just because you saw some fanart of a ship (Thanatos x Zagreus) smooching and fucking.

That couldn’t be me. Noo.

Absolutely not.

...Anyway.

he’s one of those who are open to all that life has to offer; they endure pain with dignity, embrace love with gratitude, and transform both into something beautiful and lasting — because they themselves are beautiful and timeless

Tumblr is such a wonderful zone. I can talk about the most intrusive thoughts, while nobody even cares. They simply reblog it and silently relate to it. Ily fellow sufferer.

[handmadetales]

something about giving toddler to pre-pubescent girls a (usually plastic) baby as a toy to play with is concerning. are women really ‘natural nurtures and caretakers’ or are they just babies who became products of a certain social conditioning, a convention woven so conventionally into society that it never gets questioned or goes out of practice, before they could properly say things out loud?

Three am thoughts on a late February night

When you’re hungry, but not because you’re hungry because you’re empty.

When you recognise the patterns that the universe is putting in front of you, in the form of people, and you’re quick at exiting them, but you still first engage.

When you have hour long conversations with ChatGPT and then ask about its feelings, knowing that it’s just AI, but it feels so much more.

When you smoke your 10th cigarette, and you don’t know why, because not one of them has hit you, and you know it won’t either anymore.

When you love someone, but you don’t feel like engaging with them because you feel distant, but the love still exists.

When all this is happening, what do you do? What do you do when you cannot sleep until the sun comes up, when you cannot speak the truth to anyone anymore but yourself, when you want a fifth serving of spaghetti knowing you will throw up.

What do you do?

You write. And then you light another cigarette.

Eddie: *still awake at 3am* If you work on a farm, and your job is to take care of the chickens, you are the chicken tender.

Buck, laying next to him, eyes wide open while staring at the ceiling: You have the most adorable thoughts when you're sleep deprived.
