Start from the Beginning
You hold your breath, hoping to not make any sound to alert the intruder. And you listen, desperately searching for where they may be.
Footsteps..
They're moving, very slowly, as if trying to avoid any loose floorboards.
Your heart is hammering in your chest, a rising panic of fear and dread of what may be to come. You can't breathe, you've been holding it in for too long. It'll be okay, it'll be okay to let it out.
Oh god, it came out too loud. They heard.
They stopped moving and you can feel their stare towards the couch. They know you're there.
"pssst... Raven that you?"
Clint. It was Clint this entire time.
The fear in your veins cools, leaving behind an anger towards Clint. You quickly sit up, whipping around to glare at Clint. Who just stands there, grinning sheepishly as though nothing was wrong.
[ 1 ] "Clint..."
[ 2 ] Disgruntled Stare
[ 3 ] "What the hell are you doing"

I really wish women would stop framing their every action as 'empowering', 'feminist' or 'anti feminist'. Women seriously can't exist without someone saying something about it. We feel like we have to explain ourselves for the actions or non actions we take- mostly when it's not hurting anyone. Ex not shaving. I am not performing a feminist action by simply existing in my natural state. But both sides (feminists and anti feminists) would see it as a statement. That's so unfair.
I finally figured out why I get so annoyed with how feminists talk about feminism online. They take every single action/non action a woman does and make it about men. They center men and then frame the actions of other women as 'failed feminism'.
Ex Hypersexuality and general public promiscuity. We could decenter men and talk about trauma, body alienation, the fact that most women are sexually attracted to the idea of being desired, or the fact that women are the ones who consume soft core porn and then talk about our aversion to actual porn, why and what this means. Instead it devolves into how women are only doing xyz for men and how no woman could possibly enjoy kinky sex or a lot of sex or are feeding into the patriarchy by pleasing the male gaze and there's no such thing as sexual liberation because men get to have sex/benefit from it ECT. It's a shallow view of womanhood that I'm tired of.
It feels like online feminists are slapping that label onto anything a woman does and then gets mad about that 'failed feminism'.

i don't have art to show today but ive been retelling my bestie where law and bepo are in the current manga and how it ended up like this and now im all sad and worried again
but again so happy they are together...thank you oda at least for that, idk how youll go abt their future (and i won't lie that i trust you) im so glad they have each other and law wont have to go insane being on his own again, and bepo wont have to go through trauma for failing to protect his most important person in the whole world...
its good for the crew too when they get a chance to regroup they would know that captain is safe with bepo and bepo is safe with the captain....they are so loved and admired they can feel reassured, knowing how strong their captain and his first mate are when they are together
