sometimes i wonder if my brother misses our summers together like i do. if he still sees me as 10 years old and absolved of my wrong doings, as i do him. i wonder if he still wakes up at night wanting to ask me if i want to camp out with him, and if he stops himself from doing so. when it’s the early quiet hours of the morning, and him and i are the only ones awake, i can hear his heartbeat in the next room over. my brother is my built in best friend crafted from the same father. we share blood, but there was a time we shared a life too. i resent myself for letting my ego grow bigger than my love for him. i resent myself for putting conditions on our siblinghood. he is my brother and i love him. my fear of his rejection rings loud in my heart and mind. and still i will not desert him, i will not desert him.
tomorrow is not promised, please hug your loved ones tonight. i cannot run away from something that can’t be stopped.

Look what we've become.

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#Initially I wanted to do a 'Mutiny' quote to follow the 'Luck runs out' quote.#But the musical earworms demanded a different blood to be drawn. And I think it works just as well.#Alright. It's time to confess something. I really struggled with this comic. I didn't want to draw it. Then I didn't want to upload it.#Because I knew I would be here in the tags writing and backspacing for hours trying to articulate my thoughts.#I'm going to talk about death and grief in the tags today so this is your WARNING to look away if you aren't in a headspace for it.#Sometimes in media there are scenes and characters which land on topics so specific to your wounds that it reopens them all over again.#Because here's the truth. When you've known someone like this for nearly your whole life...it doesn't matter how bad the fight is.#You always think 'We'll always have time. One day this dust will settle and we'll rebuild the bridge.'#And then the fucker dies!!! He dies and suddenly there will never ever be time to repair the rift.#Someone you loved died thinking you hated them. And part of you did just a bit. But love and hate aren't mutually exclusive.#He's fucking dead and you are left with so many broken and unfinished pieces between the two of you.#Jiang Cheng loses Wei Wuxian thinking that WWX thought they hated each other.#He's a younger brother who will one day be older than the person he lost.#Who has no one else in the world who understands those feelings of love and hate and grief.#I can't be normal about this character. I don't think he even heals me. Zero catharsis to be gained here.#I just look at his sour grape ass and think 'shit that's a little too close to home.' JC is my discomfort character.#I'm probably going to regret being this vulnerable in the tags in like. An hour. So. sorry if you see this once and never again.#EDIT: Yeah sorry this took 4 hours to muster the courage to post. Surprise update!#EDIT 2: You guys were being too nice to me on my sad comic to point out the spelling error. I have fixed it now B'*)

I can forgive my father for all his wrongs against me, if only he had treated my mother differently. It is an echo, of what my mother says, "He may not be a good husband, but he is a good father." How do I tell her that one cannot exist without the other? He will never be a good father. He is not good to my mother.
—Reva
#riri verses🖋#i know my father is not a bad man#he's a good man...one of the greatest dare I say#he's the best son#the best brother#a loving father too#a good husband? sometimes he is....sometimes not#he loves my mother yet he it seems he cannot let my mother love him#yet he longes for love#he's a lonely man#he's a wounded man#and I don't know how to help him. it pains me.#web weaving#web weave#webweaving#to be clear— i love my father. that doesn't mean i can't hate him for the way he treats my mom sometimes.#he has his flaws#everyone does#but i don't where else to speak of my pain#letter to my father#dearest father#father

Every fantasy I have of One Piece is actually just increasingly elaborate ways of saving Ace at Marineford btw. Sometimes it’s showing up in the forest and letting the gremlin know he’s loved ugh
#currently my head is stuck in time travel lawlu#and like law is so gentle#he knows what being a terrible actung out kid is like#mirror to himself#also he’s s good big brother#love language includes NOT hitting people as well no matter how much they irritate you#like we see the strawhats fighting (affectionate/as a way of showing worry care affection et#and whatever tf garp does boo#but NOT hitting?? revolutionary#to sabo and ace#and Lu has had makino and dhanks so its not new but its nice#law reading bedtime stories#ace gets embarrassed he cant read and feels stupid#so law teaches them all the flevance language#so everyone is at the same starting line and they have a way to communicate just for them and flevance isn’t dead its moved to the next gen#one piece#portgas d ace#one piece headcanons#trafalgar d water law#trafalgar law#trafalgar lami#revolutionary sabo#sabo#asl#monkey d luffy#marineford#i want law to include them in flevance family trafions that hes missed#the ones he remembers most involve the ones with little kids participating or being at the centre of attention#and its an aching wound but healing to be on the other side of it#bet he’d get them toys or make them

I love Jazzy, just as a general rule, but something that caught my eye in the beginning was the little ways Jazz’s brother treats his brother like shit.
Looking at the anime, it makes sense why they censored the women and kept the mess to a minimum for animations sake, but at least he’s clothed and awake. It makes it seem as though Jazz’s older brother is doing it for the soul purpose of being a bastard.
But looking at the manga, he’s asleep. The curtains and couch are torn, the mess is purely clothes, food, and drinks.
His brother isn’t even awake to gloat. The manga gives the impression that Jazz’s brother disregards his space on a regular, to the point where he feels comfortable passing out drunk half naked in his brothers space.
I know it’s not just me, but having a room- that’s supposed to be a safe space- violated repeated by sights and smells you don’t know? This poor kid has no sense of privacy or safety. His family literally runs on the idea that if you get robbed it’s your fault.
#mairimashita! iruma kun#welcome to demon school iruma kun#drabble#Jazzy#We get the barest glimpses into the Misfit class family lives but it’s interesting to me#Jazz has every reason to be a scum bag because he’s surrounded by scumbags but he’s loyal and caring???#He literally loves people looking up to him and taking care of them because he knows he’d be a better big brother#AND HE IS HE TAKES CARE OF HIS CLASSMATES#Jazz goes out of his way to help his classmates even when it doesn’t benefit him#and you just get the vibe that his family doesn’t see it as good or nobel#the only people who have his back are his friends and teachers I’m sobbing#Jazz’s brother did give him the whistle but that was only after Kelago’s visit so I’m still on the fence on that#I’m over analyzing it obviously the Anime gets the point across the same#but something about having your possessions defiled by naked people you don’t know adds extra salt into the wound idk#Jazz is my sweet baby boy okay#andro m jazz#Andro m Rock#His brothers name is Rock???

I am procrastinating bedtime because I don’t want to do wound care. 😒
I talked to Twin Bro, and he had good advice; eat lots of protein(can do!) and shower every morning before wound care (😭).
If that’s what I have to do to stay out of the operating room, I’ll do it, but I don’t have to like it.
I went online and ordered wash rags, protein shakes, more jammies (I seriously only have 6 outfits), and a super nice bathrobe so I can take a break between shower and wound care.
I will be diligent and get through this because I have to, and everything will heal up. And that starts with taking my meds and getting ready for bed tonight, including wound care.
#insertcaffeine breast surgery#UGH NO DO NOT WANT#my twin brother is awesome#srsly having an md who works with wound care pts is like a cheat code

#my little brother is engaged :/#don’t know if any of you remember me posting about the whole situation like 8 months ago but i feel soo weird#and sad because i want to b happy for him but he’s six yrs older than her and she’s 19..#or i guess twenty now maybe whatever i feel so aggh. and he moved to a different country so i just feel like i’m never gonna see him again#like i knew this was coming they’re both super religious so i was like yeah they’re going to want to get married and have kids fast but.#it just feels crazy. i know that’s selfish but i have such a bad gut feeling about it that i can’t shake#but i can’t do anything about it so. idk. i just feel so lonely when things like this happen because i don't have anyone outside of the#family bubble to talk to about it. and obviously everyone else is like super happy for them. and it's not that i don't like her! i just#don't really? know her? at all which feels weird because we are a very close sibling group and i feel like i know & get on with my other#siblings' partners. i think it's partly like i just don't ever hang around people who are under twenty so she feels really young to me#which isn't her fault obviously but. do feel kind of scared for her getting married at twenty so she can start having babies.... idk idk#and obviously on top of that it's my younger brother so it does feel a little salt in the wound that he's moving on with his life and i am#counting it a win these days if i don't want to kms every three minutes#god it just sucks lol and i can't talk about it 2 anyone so i am venting here

[proceeds to suffer for the sake of being a light unto others] [suffers for the sake of being a light unto others] [suffers for the sake of being a light unto others] dick says, Wait, it's too bright in here. dick says, You'll see the cracks. tim says, I can't stop. tim says, how can i stop? you were the hand that reached inside me, you switched the light on. dick & tim is like [perforated with holes, bleeding light] [bleeding light] [bleeding light] [bleeding light]

I couldn't stop thinking about @zeroducks-2's post where they said about Jason and Bruce that "They should be unable to coexist in the same room let alone speak" and idk I got inspired and this came into being
They're after some rough patrol and Dick managed to convince Jason to go with them to manor so he can take care of his injuries.
Dick was in the middle of wrapping Jason's hand when the door opened. Tim looked up from his book and Jason stiffened so slightly that if it weren't for the way Dick was holding his arm he wouldn't even notice it and really, that was all Dick needed to get who was standing at the door. He didn't stop wrapping Jason's hand, didn't even look up and after a few seconds Jason's muscles unclenched.
"Is there something you need, Bruce?" Dick hummed after few seconds when the man still didn't move from his place by the door.
Bruce cleared his throat. "No."
And then he walked inside. Dick's eyes flicked up to watch him as he moved further into the room. Even Tim put his book aside to stare at Bruce with a frown and his lips pressed into a line, as if he wanted to say something but didn't. Bruce didn't seem to notice all the looks he received, or maybe he just simply ignored them because he put a hand on an armrest of a chair and moved as if he wanted to sit down.
"Bruce."
Bruce froze at the tone. "Yes, Dick?"
Dick turned back to his little brother. Jason was looking down, eyes flashing slightly green, at his hand Dick was still holding and that hold was probably the only thing keeping him from storming out of the room and from the manor and running far away from this place.
Dick really couldn't blame him.
"If you don't need anything, then you can leave." He said.
Jason lifted his head sharply to look at him. The green faded from his eyes and Dick curled his lips into a soft smile, before finishing the wrapping and moving to cleaning up other, more minor cuts on Jason's arm.
"What?" Bruce asked, almost as if he was making sure he heard right.
"I said leave." Dick repeated patiently. "You don't need to be here, you said so yourself. We came to this room so we wouldn't have to be around you and yet you followed us here. Maybe you didn't know. I don't care. Leave."
He didn't have to look at Bruce to see the way his eyes narrowed just slightly.
"This is my home." He said and Dick needed a few seconds to breath so he wouldn't snap.
"Yes. It is." He said in a cold voice. "That's why you can choose whatever room you want to sit in. Not this one."
"Dick-"
"I swear to fucking god, Bruce-"
#my writing#batfam#Jason could leave but he promised Dick that he would stay til he was done with treating his wounds#and then Alfred came along and made him promise he'll stay for dinner#that doesn't mean he's happy about Bruce being in the same room or even building#but it's okay - Alfred is more than happy to serve the food in the kitchen instead of dinning room where Bruce would be eating#anyway this is no beta we die like jason and idk I just thought I might share#cuz we need more of Dick standing up for Jason#this can be read either as brothers or as a ship#because why the hell not#jason todd#dick grayson#bruce wayne#dickjay#jaydick

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#The childhood flashback is one of my favourite scenes in MDZS and yes I am disapointing myself in how little I am covering it.#If it is any consolation...I'll be bringing JYL's piggyback scene into another comic later on.#There truly is something so specific and yet resonant in the way our bonds as children feel so deep.#But the world doesn't stay as small as it does when you are a kid. The problems you argue about get bigger and more serious.#You still hold so much love for this person despite how much you want to throw hands with them.#To have such a complicated history with someone and then fall apart...You always think you have time to heal the wound.#Why wouldn't you! You've never had anything but time with this person. A brother not in blood but in true and genuine bond.#And then the fucker dies! It's horrible and sudden and the last words you exchanged were cold and awful!#What do you do with those dead end feelings? What do you do but grieve bitterly and angrily?#There is no resolution for all the love you wanted back. There will never be an opportunity to bridge the gap between you.#Someone you loved died thinking you hated them. Because you thought you had more time.#If anyone dares say Jiang Cheng didn't love WWX I'll be the first to fire up the powerpoint presentation on why he absolutely does.

I wish Julian and Martok would interact more cause I think they could have the funniest possible dynamic. they spent 5 weeks together in a Jem'Hadar prison I just know they have a friendship that looks fucking INSANE from the outside looking in
#star trek: ds9#julian bashir#martok#Martok: we are like blood brothers. we suffered the horrors of the Jem'Hadar together. our bond is unshakeable#Julian: in other words we're besties <3#Julian is the only doctor Martok will listen to and even then he only listens to him like 50% of the time#he'll ignore whatever Julian says right up until Julian gets right into his face and starts ordering him cause he's HAD IT#and then Martok laughs heartily and goes 'MAY YOUR SPIRIT NEVER BE TARNISHED DOCTOR'#and he slaps Julian on the back so hard he knocks him over#they get drunk on blood wine and belt out Klingon operas until Quark gets Odo to throw them both out of the bar#they'll occasionally talk about their prison time and everybody around them who can hear them is. so very concerned#Julian: what was my record for shortest time between solitary confinements. less than a minute?#Martok: yes they took you out and you spat at them and they threw you back in. that was the moment I knew you had the soul of a Klingon#Julian: aw <3#Jake sitting three seats away: YALL GOOD?#Julian joins a Klingon mission with Martok and when they come back he's dishevelled and high on painkillers and Martok is carrying him#Julian: hi :) I got blown up#Martok: he was wounded in GLORIOUS BATTLE he did his ancestors proud#like hear me out. theyre besties#and its fucking hysterical
