#Being emotionally honest!

[qoldenskies]

i think its so funny when people take the way donnie acts at face value even though its a horrible lie because he's a horrible liar, while understanding leo is bullshitting very well despite him actually being GOOD at bullshitting. many such cases

[erinwantstowrite]

the thing about Irondad is that i can make reality whatever i want and what i want is Tony being a cringe failure when it comes to the parenting side of things and Peter simultaneously being like "yeah he is a fucking loser" and "he's super smart though and learning from him has been awesome" and "but if he would be my dad that'd be cool." like Peter is an unreliable and a biased narrator at the same time so he thinks Tony is cool but in my eyes I know what he is. Tony is actually like "i would die for this kid" but having an emotional conversation feels like he's been asked to drag his bare ass across hot coals. he doesn't even know where to begin to accomplish that task. which is why Peter says things like "oh he doesn't say a lot of things to me about how he feels but i can read between the lines" and in his mind Tony says things that mean another thing but never are *quite* that thing. usually jokes that talk about what he means without having to say it or be vulnerable. in his POV he's freaking out that Peter is missing to the point of being physically ill about it, yet Peter couldn't imagine it's that bad or because losing *him* is the cause of that problem. that's how Irondad really is, and i can make it better because canon is my bitch now

donna’s inherent honesty vs dick’s tendency to be manipulative.. speak to me

[mulders-too-large-shirt]

my favorite mulder moments from s5

breaking into the labyrinth of the department of defense in episode 1 to find the cure for scully, finding only a vial of water, and the ensuing devastation that crosses his face

in the beginning of episode 2, scully is in the hospital, and he reveals that he faked his death to come visit her (“you move pretty good for a dead man”, skinner says, to which he replies “i’m only half dead”). he's going utterly ballistic, screaming “i’ll calm down when i have a reason to calm down!”, and then nearly collapses as he sees her sick in bed. only skinner's threat of arrest after they come to blows can make him see straight

he sees CSM in the hall of the hospital where scully is recovering, and spits at him “please tell me you’re here with severe chest pains” <-LMAOOOO

and when CSM tries to win him over to the dark side through scully’s cure and showing him his “sister”, he absolutely refuses, saying “you murdered my father. you killed scully’s sister, and if scully dies, i will kill you. i don’t care whose father you are, i will put you down” (LOUD CHEERING!!!!!!!)

enduring bill scully's horrible attacks on his character, trying to sympathize with his pain despite how awful he is being because he knows what it feels like to lose loved ones for the Truth. he tells this man that is being so awful to him that he lost his father and sister in his quest for answers, so he can relate to the pain he feels- only to be met with more scorn

he comes into scully’s hospital room again later on, where she is sound asleep, and he lays his head next to her and sobs

defending scully in her absence at his big important hearing; explaining how she was sent to spy on him, but “that agent scully did not follow these orders is a testament to her integrity as an investigator, a scientist, and a human being” <3

and then he SOMEHOW guesses correctly that the mole is section chief blevins, who had been on the payroll of the biotech company for years... i want to unpack if he figured it out subconsciously or was just equal parts lucky and confident, but i feel that we will never truly know

he tells skinner that scully’s cancer is in remission, saying it is the best news he has ever heard, then cries in the hallway of the hospital, holding the bloody photo of him and samantha as kids

he meets frohike for the very first time in 1989 in episode 3 and declines his offer of bootleg cable by saying “no thanks, handsome”, which prompts frohike to call him "a man of taste". thus began his long tradition of flirting with the boys

he was RACING back to the motel room at the end of episode 4, banging on the door, telling scully to get in the car NOW, and narrowly saving her from the florida mothman who was hiding under the bed!!!! i <3 protective mulder!!!

in episode 7, he flies down as soon as he can to vouch for scully's capability to adopt emily. scully introduces him to her as “a friend”, and he starts making funny faces to get her to laugh right away. he points out that the girl’s adoptive parents were both murdered, and when scully says that she can protect her, he asks “yeah, but who’s gonna protect you?”; he testifies on her behalf, even though he says he shouldn’t, because he knows it’ll put her in danger

later, he confronts the doctor who refuses to transfer over emily’s medical files. he pulls out his gun, points it at the doctor’s head, and asks “why don’t you tell me whose life is worth saving, yours or hers?” - he's so quick to adjust to scully's news of having a child and so quick to draw blood on her behalf

they’re bickering about the case in episode 8, so mulder, in a rare moment of clarity, steps back to ask what they both agree on and says they can work from there. i was shocked! in a good way! after 5 years, he finally learned to manage their opposing viewpoints in a way that can get things done! (i am sure this will never happen again)

his tree climbing detour in episode 9, plus the legendary line “hey scully, is this demonstration of boyish agility turning you on at all?” (and then bonus points for his sad descent as he is needed back on the ground right after he got up there)

his complete inability to function without scully while she is on vacation in episode 10- he actually TWIRLS the phone line while calling her!!!

and when he calls her for the 800th time, he greets her saying “morning, sunshine!” while loudly thumping his basketball up and down until she has to ask him wtf that noise is... so he lies, saying there is construction outside his window, and yells, telling the nonexistent construction worker to quiet down <- LMAOOO it killed me!!! (his basketball thumping has always been used to indicate his inability to relax... truly there is no peace for him without the bestie in town)

he’s SOOOO jealous when scully thinks the cowboy sheriff in episode 12 is cute (he recalls him having a thick southern drawl with huge teeth, so when they have to fly back down, she points out that they are totally normal-sized, and he still disputes this fact until the very end of the episode)

in episode 14, he sprints to find scully after she was present for the mass burning; he runs his fingers through her hair when she is in the hospital for vasogenic shock

post-krycek breaking into his house and beating him up, warning him that the end of the world is coming, scully finds him in his apartment sitting in the dark. “what are you doing sitting here in the dark?”, she asks. “thinking” “about what?” “oh, the usual- destiny, fate, how to throw a curveball… the inextricable relationships in our lives that are neither accidental nor somehow entirely in our control, either”

calling scully back from a payphone in the pouring rain in episode 17 to help get her some information on her personal case <3

(he also really nerds out in that episode about eye imagery in the bible, apocrypha, and references jesus christ superstar... a man of culture)

((and he was SO protective of scully- he stepped in when the priest was being all shady, tried to advise her not to let him get into her head, and we got to see some incredibly rare emotional communication when he said “i’ve never seen you more vulnerable or susceptible or more easily manipulated, and it scares me because i don’t know why”. he was grabbing her shoulders and pulling her in close, telling her she should step away when she mentions the visions of emily… god. he was SO worried!!))

when he’s being tortured in episode 18, he tells the man hurting him over and over again that he will kill him, which i thought was really fascinating

being willing to risk all of the x files in episode 20 because he fully believes that scully is correct about gibson being the key to explaining them, even though skinner warns against it... that is complete trust <3

1/2) Yata was offended by Fushimi, very much so, and refused to go and make peace. He no longer cooks for Fushimi (although usually no conflicts turn him away from this), does not kiss, does not have sex with or talk to him, and resolves everyday issues with the help of notes. Usually, Yata quickly lets go of negativity in life, but not this time, now he buries himself in negativity at every opportunity. No one in Homra can encourage him to make peace, not even Anna.

Fushimi finally used the virgin joke one time too many D: Imagine that the two of them have been together for a while but maybe for once Yata’s starting to be the one who feels insecure, like say they’ve been talking about buying a place and Fushimi mentions he’ll pay all the rent because Yata is still living off part time jobs. On top of this Yata’s been thinking about proposing but he’s getting down on himself because he couldn’t afford a ring, like here it’s been a couple years and he’s still just a part timer, not getting anywhere with his skateboarding and sometimes he thinks Fushimi might resent that Yata’s still like stuck being useless when Fushimi has a steady well-paying job and all that. In this case the ‘virgin’ thing is really the last straw, the two of them are having sex and Fushimi keeps teasing Yata the whole time because Yata’s extra clumsy today. Afterward they’re cuddling and Fushimi makes another ‘I’m amazed you lasted so long, virgin,’ comment and Yata just blows up, snapping that if he’s such a ‘virgin’ Fushimi is welcome to find a better partner.

He storms out and ends up just standing by the door outside the apartment, running a hand through his hair and frustrated. Yata knows he shouldn’t have blown up like that but he’s also just so tired, like sometimes he wonders if Fushimi even likes him and apparently even after two years he’s not good enough in bed either. Yata can’t help but hold onto this resentment too, like he’s tired also of always being the one who apologizes every time. He’s so angry that he ends up leaving the next morning without making Fushimi breakfast or packing him lunch, imagine Fushimi just standing there in the apartment at a loss because usually Yata always makes his food. He grudgingly makes himself something unhealthy and grumbles that Yata will get over it, it’s fine.

Except it isn’t, because after this Yata basically ignores him entirely. Yata makes meals only for himself, leaves post-it notes to resolve any issues like who needs to wash the dishes, utterly ignores any attempt Fushimi makes to initiate intimacy. Fushimi is so at a loss he even begrudgingly asks Kusanagi for help, but Yata isn’t interested in taking advice from him either. Even Anna can’t move his heart, though I imagine that she wouldn’t try to make him apologize or let go of his anger if he doesn’t want to, even without her powers I imagine Anna is very sensitive to the feelings of others. Rather she just tells Yata not to let resentment ruin him, if he wants to make a decision then he should do it, but don’t hold onto a darkness so long that it poisons you. Yata takes that in and decides he needs to at least do something, even if that something isn’t necessarily forgiving.

In the end I imagine it is sort of an apology that works, but in this case it has to be a proper sincere one. I imagine Fushimi’s just been quietly flailing because he doesn’t know how to fix this, he even bought a vase of flowers and Yata just ignored it. So it’s time for him to offer Yata the most frightening thing: emotional intimacy. Imagine Yata shows up at the apartment and maybe he’s finally decided, he needs to just leave rather than stewing in his anger. Fushimi is waiting for him and when Yata curtly says he’s going Fushimi suddenly moves, so fast that Fushimi himself didn’t even realize it, as he grabs Yata’s arm and says ‘don’t.’ Yata sighs, running a hand through his hair as he’s about to push Fushimi’s hand away and then he realizes that there’s something wet falling on his wrist. He looks up in surprise and Fushimi is actually crying, wiping at his eyes irritably but clearly very much Having Emotions.

That’s actually the one thing that could melt Yata’s heart and his expression softens as he’s like hey it’s all right, realizing suddenly that he’s never actually seen Fushimi cry before and that’s kinda scary to him. Fushimi starts to push him away but then stops, clinging to Yata a little more as he sincerely apologizes and wants to know what he can do to make Yata happy, because he doesn’t even know how to make himself happy and clearly this is something he’s done, to make things break without even trying, and he has no idea how he’s supposed to fix this either. Yata feels this sudden rush of emotion as he realizes just how much Fushimi does in fact love him and he decides okay, maybe Anna was right and he needs to let his resentment go so that he can find an understanding with Fushimi. They end up sitting together and properly talking, Yata admitting his insecurities and Fushimi for once owning up to all the things he’s done to hurt Yata without realizing, and in the end they’re like both hugging and crying together.

Some Perfumare art featuring @pdrrook 's characters Jewel, Alan, Flavio, and Nino based on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia meme.

Jewel: How do three grow ass adults not know how to have an honest conversation with their significant other?

Alan, Flavio, and Nino: They're- The economy is in shambles.

The Perfumare sequel LIs may be professional adults with training and education considering they're respective professions. But Jewel is clearly the smartest LI in both games since she's the only one who understands how to have honest communication with her significant other.
