#I know how helpless it is.

frankly, the response that you all have to people hating Biden because he has been brazenly aiding genocide and even with these recent aid drops is being utterly monstrous (dropping expired non-halal items) and is not using the power he has to actually stop this... it is not only about Palestinians, though they are the primary concern. For some of us, it is a reminder that if the US started aiding our people's destruction, you'd stand by it out of cowardice that criticism might make your life harder.

can’t help but think of how, if we choose to go by sirius’ characterisation as a private, arrogant teen who only lets a select few into his circle, sirius’ post-azkaban life just have been such an utterly humiliating experience for him.

especially OoTP. when he has all these near strangers in his childhood house, that he hated and loved and ran away from and couldn’t ever escape. if he spent his entire pre-azkaban existence building a cold and aloof persona, not letting people know what his home life had been like, then to have all of these people get a front row seat to it because of kreacher and portrait walburga’s shenanigans must have been near unbearable. to have the entire order, including snape whom he disliked and mistrusted, hear the kinds of names he’s being called.

not only does he have to deal with the retraumatisation of his childhood, but also the fact that he’s flayed open for everyone to see. it’s not only his freedom, innocence, dignity that has been snatched from him but his privacy also. it’s such a cruel thing to experience, on top of everything else.

to have literal children, his godson who he has been kept away from all this while, whom he presumably wants to be able to look up to him, to have him see into the deepest parts of his soul. to have to be so weak in front of him. not only is he subjected to such vileness but he also cannot do anything about it.

sirius has not had a moment of peace in all the time we knew him. it is indignity upon indignity that is heaped onto him. every other character has gotten a moment of respite but him. it fully breaks my heart.

Lighter is sexy and all but what's sexier is just kissing his scars, even the little one reaching his buttcheek, this man should be caressed and needs to be pampered especially when he's naked non sexual nudity and intimacy is so underrated

No literally! I know I've been going on and on and on about how sexy Lighter is, and how good he is in bed, but my favorite thing is non-sexual intimacy. And I know that Lighter loves non-sexual intimacy too, probably more than most people might.

For the longest time, he was seen as just a body. Sure, sure it wasn't sexual, but that's all he was. Lighter's worth was how hard he could hit, how many punches he could take, and how long he could stay standing in a fight. Sexual intimacy, in a lot of ways, makes him feel the same way. Like he's just how hard he can fuck, or the only thing that matters is the size of his dick.

So when you gently draw your fingers over his scars, pressing feather-light kisses over the marred skin, he feels seen. He feels loved. He feels like a person. There's no motive behind what you're doing, no reason for you to press gentle touches to such ugly parts -- reminders of his past -- yet you do.

You do it because you love him, as a person. You want him to know how much you adore every part of him, even the ones that he finds ugly or disgusting because that's what love is. He just never felt it before now. He never knew what it meant to be loved, not until you were tracing the edges of his scars with your soft lips like he was something to be worshipped.

It makes him cry, hard. But then you come up and you kiss the tears away, whispering sweet nothings in his ears. He believes every word that leaves your mouth. Every praise, every declaration of love, all of it.

You take the time to show him, without a shadow of a doubt, that you love Lighter because he's Lighter. Not because he's the champion, not because he knows all the good spots deep inside you, but because he is your person. Because you are his.

this bit always gets me

Siffrin wants so badly not to have the others hurt/see them hurt and yet doesn't register how much they don't want to see him hurt either.

the only reason Bonnie's not screaming too is because Siffrin already told them to run

very tentatively holding hands with boothill for the first time and he's flustered bc of the intimacy and the romanticism of it all and how perfectly your palm fits against his and how wonderfully your fingers feel wrapped around his metal; meanwhile you're flustered because all you can think about is how easily he could fit his entire hand around your throat

I think classic no frills fauxcest is awesome from an objective standpoint but it’s not my cup of tea specifically. I think I am simply too much of an animal to engage with it in a way that’s compelling to me.

To be somebody’s childhood dog though,,,,, purchased by my masters, your parents, in your infancy with the sole purpose of growing up with you, of being a constant companion and protector. nestling into the crevice between best friend and sibling and making myself a den there. that’s the real good shit.

I think the best way I could describe this episode is 'fear'. The absolute fear that Thomas feels after Jane's death when reality begins to weigh on him. The complete devastation in his eyes when Mary told him that Stephen had returned, the way that his relationship around Henry is different. Henry isn't a friend to him, he's a dangerous person, but now he realizes he's stuck. The way he accidentally let it slip that he would retaliate against Henry, in front of Risley, and the cold fear that we see in his face.

Thomas is genuinely terrified. I don't think he believes death, is looming in the air, but he knows that something is going to happen. And i mean, the fear he is feeling was enough to get him sick, and nearly die. It brought back his Italian fever but this time, it was worse, much much worse.

He can't even talk straight, he can't walk straight, he can't think. Thomas, a man who has been nothing but brave and resilient his whole life is finally being broken down, and finally succumbing to fear. Which is something he truly, truly, never thought he'd be able to feel fully.

What did Anne say in the first season, "Fear can unmake a man" , and well...it's happening.

Anyone still calling late game Katsuki an abuser in 2024 is just not paying attention. Full stop.

Look past the facade and see it for what it really is....

See them for what they really are.

(Or, what if Ink could see the creators and totally isn't maybe still a little resentful over being abandoned, haha, what made you think that?)
