#I missed the conversation around them

[polterwasteist]

I just gonna yap a little bit about them to so don't mind me

.

I love, LOOOOOVE with all my being the relationship of these two.

How they were childhood friends whose bond was broken by an external misinterpretation where they brought out the worst in each other to the point where they became enemies and that bitterness ate them up inside for YEARS until they were adults but they could never really be completely separated because they always ended up involved in some way or another (like their new founded bond with Amber) and even though they hated each other they could never really let the other suffer because deep down they still appreciated each other and they are such good people that they still offered their help to each other

I love the complex, deep and toxic relationship of two sentimentally repressed people with a difficult past coming together and loving each other (platonic or romantically idk at this point) despite of everything because that's how real relationships are, not everything is like a fairytale or a sitcom. Anger and hate are VERY strong feelings that one can't just make them disappear and make it seem that everything is fine. They had to see themselves at their worst to realise that they are not just the bad image they had in their heads.

I complain a lot about Beemoov not give them a good closure to their story (we came so close to seeing it in episode 7 of LL but in the end we were back to business as usual)

But it's so nice to me that despite everything they kept being closer and closer until they ended up being official friends again!! They take the worst out of each other but also the best out of each other, because there is no one else in that world who really knows them as deeply as they do. They are the longest and deepest bond in the game (after the Nath and Amber bond)

I know this will seem biased because I ship them. But believe it or not, i hated the ship before and it was only after I started to analyse their interactions, their history and their evolution that I fell in love with them

castiel and nathaniel relationship through time is really interesting and dear to me.

it's mentioned that they know each other since they were kids and didn't get along. still somehow, during their first years of highschool they seem to be something more akin to friends. i would've loved to know how that happened, how it evolved. then there's the debrah situation and they go back to despising each other. notice how nathaniel was terribly hurt that castiel didn't believe him, and castiel felt betrayed by nathaniel. and they never talked about it.

then candy shows up and saves the day as always, yes queen. and so it all gets exposed. and after that, they seem slightly less aggressive towards the other, more like how you would treat an ex-friend than an enemy. (i hope i'm making sense lol)

then there's nathaniel's whole family situation. and i think that's when we can notice major changes on their relationship. how castiel helped him even if he pretended he didn't care hehe. (i'm choosing to ignore the terrible way he made fun of it, i still think that was very ooc of him and he totally deserved that slap). i don't remember many specific examples bc it's been a looong while, but there are some moments when, i swear, you can see the change. their bickering turned into light hearted teasing somewhere along the way.

then we skip 4 years into the future. and they fell off. again. and even when castiel (and everyone else, really) were mad at nathaniel, they had amber conecting them both. and somehow they relied on each other when it came to her, some sort of silent agreement to take care of her. and i love thaaat.

and then candy shows up (again), nathaniel fixes his shit, and they go back to how they were at the end of highschool. or not? they're better, even if they would die before letting it show. they're friends again (or for the first time?).

and don't get me started on love life, because oh my god. the way nathaniel doesn't even doubt before risking his job to help him. okay, i see you.

anyways, not to be taken serious ! i'm just a yapper who's still stuck on her obsession from middle school. I LOVE THEEMMMM.

When you backread through a fun conversation you had with someone for hours an angel gets its wings

[tj-crochets]

Hey y'all! I have a question that (judging by how my mom reacted when I asked) is going to sound like a joke, but I am genuinely asking because I really don't know what's funny about it and I would like to So the other day at work a contractor called me, asked one question I could (and did) answer, and then spent 10 minutes complaining about his phone, insisting it was a problem on our company's end. The problem is his phone not dinging to alert him when he gets emails from us, and after I gently tried explaining a couple times that the issue is on his end, not mine, he just kept getting angrier and insisting that is was not on his end. I finally said "I'm sorry, I can't fix that. Is there anything else I can help you with?" He said, angrily "Well there's no need to be sassy about it" and hung up on me And like, I get that it's funny he hung up on me after calling me sassy of all things (far from the worst thing I've been called at work) but both my boss and my mom separately seem to think my response is funny??? I thought I was just being professional! Am I missing something?

[autisticlee]

sometimes people who struggle like to make jokes or find positives about their condition that causes them to struggle so they can escape the constant negative and struggle. sometimes autistic people will say things like "the 'tism" or use the "autism creature" or say their autism helped them have a *positive trait* to feel better about their struggles. because living your life only focusing on the struggles and negatives is depressing and makes it hard to want to live, even if those struggle take up 100% of your life and you can't actually escape them. sometimes any little seemingly positive thing can help a lot.

but there's so many other autistic people that hate when we do that and call it "reducing autism to a cute trendy thing" and say it takes away from *their* struggles and is bad and shouldn't be used. maybe *you* want to only focus on your struggles, but some people can't live in constant negative and need some positive or to find ways to make their condition more positive so they can feel better about living with their struggles. life is hard. I take anything I can get.

I cant get jobs. I can't make and keep friends. I can't get help and support for doing "normal" things so sometimes I go weeks without being able to shower and without eating more than a bowl of cereal a day. most times can't even do things I like. struggle to communicate. have meltdowns. i'll never be able to live independently. I struggle a lot. but instead of sitting here always depressed and having no motivation to live, i'd rather try to joke about "my 'tism is acting up again" when i'm struggling (just an example. don't think I ever actually used the 'tism thing but i saw others use it) or say "i'm just being a creature" when I need to stay in my dark room because everything is too much and I personally find it cute to be a little creature meant in a positive way. i'm not actually downplaying mine or anyone else's struggles. I still acknowledge them and that silly jokes dont make them go away. i'm not trying to be trendy. i'm not doing any of the things people say we do by making silly little jokes. i'm using the silly little jokes to convince myself life can be a little more than pointless, painful garbage all the time.

whats worse than having only like 1-5 friends?

I miss you

[goldentigerfestival]

I really love this scene because Flynn is so stressed out and aggravated and Yuri can tell, so he doesn't get mad, even if Flynn is saying things that are a bit miffing. He doesn't engage with the comments (even when you can tell he's miffed in the moment he looks away, actively trying not to engage with the comment and make the mood worse), stays calm and just gets to the point of the conversation, ending it off being casual and playful (in regular Yuri Lowell fashion!!). He understands how frustrating this is for Flynn and handles it without letting himself get worked up in return.

I've said it before, but Yuri's emotional intelligence and his responses to other people's emotional states fascinates me. Sometimes he does give in to the moment, but most of the time he can assess the situation and respond to the other person the best way possible depending on the situation without pressing the wrong buttons.

I love him. 🤘

[teacup-captor]

So you know those people who make sad and/or snarky comments about their exes? Like "I don't need them, I'm so much happier now anyway" and "I miss them so much they meant so much to me" type of things

I have to focus so hsrd to not say stuff like that about Sherlock & Co. sometimes 😭😭😭

Whumpers, what are your earliest memories?

Mine is from when I was about two or three. I was in a stroller, at my cousin’s Irish dancing recital. After the recital, my aunts were talking down to me in the stroller, and to each other. I was experiencing extreme anxiety because I couldn’t understand what they were saying, when I felt I should have been able to communicate with them like they were communicating with each other. I was also very tired and dazed. I did not cry though… I probably looked normal on the outside.

I also remember when I was about four or five, I went to the beach with my dad and one of his friends. I somehow found my way onto the dock, planted my little rear end on a jet ski, untethered it from the dock, and started floating into the sunset. There was an old lady lounging in a donut inflatable out some way; she said something to me, but I couldn’t understand what she said, despite trying really hard. I’m assuming it was something along the lines of “Oh my god get off that jet ski you’re going to fucking DIE, kid,” but again… couldn’t understand a word of what she said, and got frustrated because she was speaking English (without an accent) and I should know how to understand adults speaking English to me.

At this point, my dad is yelling at me from across the water, and a young lifeguard drags the jet ski back. On land, my dad lectured at me very harshly as he led me back to the car. I didn’t know I had done anything wrong, and was very confused. At some point this guy starts quoting the Bible at me, and the only thing I could pick out were the words (spoken very emphatically), “Your days are numbered.”

“My days are numbered?” cue a vivid mental image of a calendar, with dates listed for every day of the week, “What does that mean?” Later on I figured out this was the Bible’s way of referencing death at God’s hand which just made me even more confused as to what I did, until at age thirteen, I figured out, “Oh a baby who can’t swim floating on a jet ski is terrifying, actually.”
