But wouldn't your partner become your family too?

If we'd been together for a while, then yes of course they would. But if we were still in the early stages of a relationship then they wouldn't be, not yet.

thirdyear!izuku would be the type of guy to sneak into your dorm, and (demand) ask if you can sneak out with him. he'd take you floating above the buildings, beyond it, and he'd trap you in his arms until you force him to return to the dorms---just so neither of you will get caught---he'd follow you (because entirely, he's still izuku, and izuku will always follow through what he's told), open your dorm window, sleep on your bed until someone knocks, telling you how late it is, that you've missed the first period and and and—

it's not sinking in that today might be the last day in my house and town for many months to come

"...there’s something star-crossed about these two. There is a deep connection there, but the turmoil, war and politics of this world are pretty intent on pulling them away from each other." - Joey Batey (x)

Yeah...

Just so you know, if you're a guy with a 3 syllable name that begins with "R", and you so happen to experience a strong case of love at first sight for someone that sort of happens to be named "Juliet" or "Julian", you might find yourself facing a few obstacles getting in the way of your relationship.

Just saying!

I occasionally wish to reach out to old friends/acquaintances I haven't spoken to since high school/some other even earlier time in my life, but I have SOOO little social energy even for required tasks (like making dr phone calls or etc), I never have any leftover for extra ones, and it would be very odd to message someone I haven't spoken to in like 5 years out of the blue but then take 4 entire months to respond back lol.. My natural curiosity with nostalgia/collecting details of the past/etc. (literally if I were born a little earlier I would definitely do scrapbooking or something lol) is very strong, but, alas, not strong enough to beat out the Social Issues Demons apparently

it's a chicken-or-egg kind of conflict, built on unreasonable expectations and toxic desire.

sam and dean choose to be codependent in 1.22 devil's trap: they both make grandiose statements that communicate their devotion to each other. but then, between 2.02 everybody loves a clown and around 2.04 children shouldn't play with dead things, sam starts talking about honoring their dad and trying to do right by him. he's guilty that john died before they could actually have a good relationship; he's just started to forgive him for their upbringing, and now he's gone and the way he copes with that is by trying to follow in john's footsteps, as if to prove that he's fine now with the life he's given them.

but john just sold his soul for dean and told dean that he might have to kill his brother—dean has come to perceive john as an enemy. john is asking dean to do the impossible, and on top of that he's left dean without anyone to guide him and tell him how to act. and so dean has cast john out in favor of entering a codependent unit with sam. sam is now all dean has left, physically and emotionally, and sam just declared his devotion to dean in no uncertain terms, chose him definitively, and so sam is therefore agreeing to fill in all of the holes john left behind so that dean can feel whole again.

but here sam is "allying" himself with john.

and sam obviously isn't intentionally trying to hurt dean; he's having a normal response to death. but sam's loyalty to dean and john can't coexist in dean's eyes, and that means sam is reneging on his commitment to dean, even though sam absolutely did not do that. and so dean he keeps to himself and refuses to open up about the truth because he can't trust sam to side with him, afraid of rejection or admonishment (which he receives anyway across the beginning of season 2, reinforcing those fears). he's angry and he feels alone because sam "chose" john when dean needed him most.

and as a result, because sam is of course still trying to be codependent with dean, dean's refusal to open up and be honest with him is equally seen as a betrayal of their commitment. to sam, honoring john is not in conflict with being codependent with dean. yet for some reason, dean won't even talk to him. he expects complete and open honesty from dean with their new dynamic—secrets are no longer acceptable because they're supposed to be on the same page, always—and he's not getting it, and it hurts. all he can see is betrayal.

of course sam is going to mourn his father after he's worked so hard to forgive him. of course dean is going to get frustrated at having no one to share his grief and anger with. of course sam is going to be hurt by dean's rejection. of course they're going to be upset at each other's betrayal of a profound commitment. it's a lot of reasonable reactions to unreasonable expectations, irrational perceptions, and half-truths that distort and warp their realities into something toxic and unmanageable. it's all about those subtle moments which unknowingly communicate betrayal of an undernegotiated relationship, all amplified by the heightened tension of grief and loss.

and around and around it goes.

still haven't moved on from zane in this episode (aka I hit tag limit again and am unhappy about it)

The urge to do a breakdown of arma and new ryoma specifically to try to understand why new ryoma is not at all acknowledged compared to arma despite new having far more screen time and being explored as a character then arma is so strong even though the answer boils down to two things: “art style preference” and “no one cares about ryoma as a actual nuance character” but both of those points makes me so mad💀

Let me be absolutely clear -- the problems with Tumblr will keep getting worse if the disabled minority and the trans people and the people frothing at the mouth at the opportunity to yell at a transphobe, keep @’ing staff and the developers on this site, tell them to kys, because in the meanwhile the transphobes and racists and white supremacists will keep using the actual tools Tumblr provides for blocking and reporting, further poisoning the datasets used for moderation, and encouraging the idea that using the official tools does nothing to basically ensure the only statistically meaningful data available to Automattic is poisoned, poisoned all the way down, poisoned beyond usability.

Hatespeech and bias needs to be reported for it to be considered statstically significant to act on from a developer point of view. Suicide baiting and spamming any of the official means of communication will get you eliminated as a spammer, even if you’re peppering legitimate criticism within your ventpost about how you hate the new thing. You are playing the TE/RFs game.

you know the tough thing about fostering a litter of 9 from birth, knowing you plan to keep one, is how hard it is to actually pick one

I saw the fanart rules and thought, how can someone get drunk with DETERGENT AND SHAMPOO? it was funny btw, but would Eli be okay after...yk, ingesting those things?😟

They have a lot of control over their body (idk if i should say total) and their system adapts to anything to reach balance in a much faster way than us. I needed to think about something stronger so it could affect them ehehe

So alcohol affects the brain (and other things but those don’t matter in this case) but Eli doesn’t have a physical brain like people, it’s kind of distributed throughout their body (it’s like us having neurons on our guts ACTUALLY we have in a lot of places but with them is more weird and different). But their ‘brain’ and thought process/consciousness/emotions/ are human and were raised human (even if poorly).

(body horror? ig, poison mention, some basic chemistry talk, alcohol mention too)

So I thought about what substance could affect all the body and I thought of poisons, but there are a lot of them and classifying them would be too much for me, so I thought of alkaline solutions, corrosive to plant and animal tissue, slight poisoning that affects them the same way we process alcohol (chemicals and neuron communication stuff i shouldn’t be explaining bc it’s pointless to the ask). 

But there is no real science behind it bc they are not real yeyyy.

If u were wondering about if it hurts them the answer is yes kind of?, but they have a different (physical) pain perception than we do. Also they can turn it on and off at will. Also if the substance kills cells they will just make more (this is unconscious)  to eventually dissolve it completelly so they just do it for the feeling. Also it’s so light that they don’t even notice the ‘’pain’’. 

The bigger the pH the less time it takes effect. They are just affected this way with pH from 10 to 14, if it’s below that to 7 then it would require big quantities (like some soaps and shampoo). I still haven’t thought about how acids make them feel (but thinking about how they can make stomach acid i don’t think it would affect them).

(side silly note that it’s not canon: i thought ohh maybe if alkali are depressants then acids are stimulants but that’s too silly, i give Eli a lemon and she goes through the wall /j).

The stronger alkali Eli could get their hands on would be bleach so that would be like drinking Spirytus to them, but they don’t find any difference, if they do want to feel like being drunk it’s just some bar soaps. chomp.  If they tried a stronger one I don't think anything bad would happen aside from smelling like it (and other thing that it's too much explaining, but still not dead)

I love so much that echo isn't forgotten about. You feel his absence from the very beginning and it's a focus throughout the entire episode. I've seen many a lesser show sweep this kind of thing under the rug and pretend it never happened, and it makes me so happy to see people hurting and feeling that absence. A part of their family is gone and they need time to process. Idk it just means a lot to me 🤧
