And Life Goes On, Abbas Kiarostami, 1992

I put all my angry posts in drafts and leave them there for a month, go back, look them over, and delete. This is how I’ve survived so long online.

feeling SO LONELY AND BORED!!!!

[itemfinder]

I have had the privilege of the last few weeks off, which has neatly coincided with my mom coming home from a really scary set of hospital experiences and also the holidays.

I'm grateful that I've had the time to spend with her and with my dad, and the time also to recover and rest so I can continue to help.

there have been years that I couldn't deal with them even for the given amount of holiday -- too drained by everything else to handle them and my reaction to them and the history we have.

I had initially (excitedly) planned to spend my break working on sewing projects. I've done... zero of that. I don't regret it -- those can wait, and I'm glad I've done what I did.

I am constantly thinking of how people say I'd run out of things to do with myself without a job. there's so much out there to do.

Please note if you know of a really cool thing you did or someone else did and you're surprised I haven't liked and reblogged yet, it's probably just.,...

I haven't scrolled through my dashboard yet, and idk when I'll have time to or remember to do so 🤷

I've talked extensively about the wonders of feeling empathy for the fucked up character but occasionally a character behaves annoyingly for trauma related reasons and I can clearly see the pathway between the horror and the behavior... and still I think he's pathetic and want him to suffer when he disgusts me <3

you know, thanks to ✨traumatic life experiences✨ during lockdown, i got used to the surreality of knowing someone you love is considerably unwell while not being able there to support them or even see them and i forgot how just achingly empty it makes you feel

"... I didn't know she was one of his test subjects too."

Wrenn had been staying with Tighnari in Gandharva Ville for some time now. He had gotten to know Collei a fair bit, and while his time there was meant to be 'punishment' for the injury he inflicted upon Tighnari, he knew he wasn't in bad company. In fact, he secretly enjoyed his stay there, much to his own dismay.

At least, until something happened--something he didn't expect.

Wrenn hadn't meant to startle her so badly, when he went to grab her. He hadn't meant anything by it--she had just been turning away from him and he wanted to stop her from leaving, to tell her something he felt was important. But she violently pulled her wrist away and screamed, cowering away from him before running off. Such a reaction to being touched by him startled him, and his own self hatred had started to bubble over--was he so repulsive or other to them that his touch was so offensive?

So he had been in a foul mood all day, avoiding everyone--until Tighnari had found him, and revealed the truth of the matter. That Collei had been one of Dottore's prior experiments.

A segment of his, probably--but still, nevertheless, a victim.

"That explains why she freaked out so much," Wrenn huffed. Though a part of him felt guilty for how quickly he jumped to the conclusion that it was a problem with him specifically, and not something outside of himself. "I'm... surprised she survived through it. Humans are far more fragile than I am. Normally, they die after one experiment... guess he wanted to keep her alive for some reason. That's the only reason she's alive. He doesn't care if his test subjects live or die unless he has something to gain from you being alive. If he's interested enough, then you're not allowed to die. Not on his watch."

Wrenn's words were harsher than he meant, but they were a matter of fact--as his own chest tightened at the thought, he knew better than anyone that if Dottore was interested in you, it was the only thing that saved you from death.

If one could call it saving.

"I'll take care not to suddenly grab or touch her from now on," he promised with a nod. "The last thing I want is to put myself in more debt to you. I'll take on some of her work to make up for it... and, feel free to tell her that I meant no harm by it."

"you're the writer, you control how the story goes" no not really. i wrote the first sentence and then my characters said "WE WILL TAKE IT FROM HERE" and promptly swerved into an electrical fence.

Is life really bad or am I just having a hard time right now?
