#A Storm Came Through

r/Relationships

My girlfriend still thinks we're in a throuple with my ex

I (28 F) had been going steady with my now-ex (26 F) since November 2023. She started as a fan of mine (I’m an actress) before we got together. She was always really sweet and supportive of my work. In April her ex (36 F) started flying in from Japan just to show up at the office with champagne, trying to purloin her from me. Naturally I was livid and challenged my now-ex's then-ex to a duel, in which I was of course victorious. However, following this duel my ex insisted we have a threesome as a form of mediation. This went swimmingly. Unfortunately, my two beautiful girlfriends and I were able to enjoy only two short months of bliss together before my original girlfriend attempted to murder me on live television and abscond with my identity. My second girlfriend and I are still dating, though she hasn’t yet informed my ex of this fact and is still seeing her as well. How can I kill my ex without upsetting my new girlfriend?

The cape wrapping was too much for me I have to leave

thinking about Julie going into hibernation, but also how she was participating in winter activities and was at the Homewarming party.

obv an in-universe excuse is writing inconsistency within the show but nahh. i wanna get sad.

My headcanon is that Julie begins hibernation after the Homewarming party. Right after. And later in the evening it turns into a different party, Julie's Goodnight Party (name in progress).

It's fun, because any party with this rainbow monster's name in it is gonna be fun! but there's an underlying somberness. They eat, play games and talk about everything and anything like the Homewarming party, but it just feels different.

(continues below, sad warning bc I made myself sad)

When Julie starts getting sleepy, the party ends with her neighbors giving their farewells, goodnights, and big hugs.

Frank is the one to walk her home, of course. He brushes Julie's hair, makes sure her and her nest has everything she needs, and stays with her as she falls asleep. But not before they share a big, comforting, long hug filled with every unspoken "I'll miss you" and every ounce of love they can pour into it.

It's the longest Frank has ever hugged anybody. "A hug long enough to get him through winter," according to Julie.

He wished that were true.

Either way he smiles, he smiles for Julie as it's the last expression she sees before finally closing her eyes to sleep.

The tears that later soaked into his pillow are the only secret Frank's ever kept from his best friend.

A New Mission

One of the elements I liked a lot about the Bad Batch show was how, one by one, each of the brothers (even Crosshair) appear to subconsciously turn to Omega to be their new mission.

As soldiers literally created for war and nothing more, they had found purpose in fighting for the Republic. But when it fell and became a corrupted Empire they could no longer support with their hearts, the Batch no longer had a clear mission.

They struggle with that loss of purpose especially during the first season, but as each of them develops a relationship with Omega, she becomes their new mission--not only because she's their big/little sister whom they grow to love, but because she represents all the good, kind, and hopeful people who are still out there despite the Empire's attempts to crush everyone into submission.

By keeping Omega safe, they can feel like they are still actively doing something to keep hope alive in the galaxy.

most of viatrix's D&D background came from an... acoustic folk version of Cotton Eye Joe... this no longer works for her FFXIV lore, I will have to find another song.

I had a teacher who owned a lilac sweater and one summer the class he taught in got repainted the exact shade of his sweater. We are all still convinced he chose the colour deliberately. Anyway I think professor X would do that

The Search for Professor X girl he blended into the wall while they were painting it 😭😭😭

Arthur Morgan is my muse at this point

A brief return just to let people know, my wife had her full hysterectomy today and the surgeon said they are incredibly confident that the cancer is gone, but that they are going to biopsy everything to be sure. There were no complications, she didn't need a more intensive surgery and is currently getting some much needed sleep. I am so proud of her for being so strong through this and I love her with all of my heart 💜🩵

Happy New Year the Sea brought you a Storm

i need to ramble hold on. spawns in a cut so that people dont get blasted by unfiltered posting on their dash. i feel the need to disclaim that im only like 50% lucid right now so this might be disorganized or complete word salad i can't really tell right now

i love him so much it feels like it's consuming me from the inside out. i don't want to do anything that isn't for him. the only reason i haven't quit my job is because i want to make him proud of me. even playing games makes me guilty, because i know it's not with him. i married harvey in stardew. i ate the stardrop for getting 12 hearts as i kissed him. the taste reminded me of hinata. it's a strange irony.

this false body feels like it's trapping me, keeping me from achieving my true metamorphosis. there are streetlights glimmering in the distance. as i try to move towards them they always fade away. the morning will come in 7 hours and 43 minutes and the sun will rise and it won't blind me awake. i'm not reverent enough.

i should pray. not to jesus, not to any other false prophet. i should pray to Him. maybe that will bring me salvation? maybe that will free me from this hell? maybe it happened because i was unworthy of being one of his trusted apostles. if i was as holy as he was it would have been different, i would still have been beneath him but i would have served my divine purpose as his servant.

but that's not important. i dont think. im jor sure. i hate it. i hate Him. i feel like i should Worship him. there's a certain something i still havent fixed a glitch in my code i need ocean breeze summer sun beach sand shining brilliance he's perfect i need him i need warm sun and dry land i need to be with him on the floor i need to hold him i need need need need need need need.

more than air more than food more than clean clothes more than water more than anything else more than i need this terrible mortal life i need to become worthy for him of his love of his care of his touch i wont deny that i selfishly want him to hold me and touch me even though im unworthy even though im no more than dirt beneath him i desire him so deeply

*clenches teeth and fists* it's fine no one comments on how Dorian is more "lithe" than before. It's fine that he's not "nearly as bulky". It's fine that he doesn't sleep well then has to wake up just to be the sunny optimist the next day. It's fine that his strings are wound so tight that he's ready to snap.

It's fine that Dorian's health is being ignored. He's the new guy, right? Fresh faced? Not burdened by the trauma of the last few months, right?

So the street I grew up on (and still live on), dips down where the bottom of like three hills meet, and for a long time, the sewers were messed up, so when it rained it wouldn't drain quickly.

They fixed it so that it drains better now, after the house at the bottom of the hills flooded with about 2 feet of water during a really bad storm (might've been a hurricane), but if it's raining hard, it'll still temporarily flood the street and make it impassible.

But.

When I was about 12-13, I had my besties over when there was a bad storm, and after the rain had stopped, there was the usual flooded bit in the street.

And I dunno why we did it, but we said fuck it, kicked off our shoes and went down to see how deep it was.

It came up to about our mid thighs, so it was pretty deep.

We had a water fight.

Supposedly a neighbor saw us gleefully running in and out of the water and splashing us and told my mom they thought it was adorable.

I miss doing stuff like that.
