Keep seeing that post where OP starts like 'Thinking about...grieving the undead' and then adds on about like. Real life situations where people have not died but have left your life and you would have reason to grieve them.
All respect, that's an important concept, but that is not what I am thinking about when I read 'grieving the undead'.

I don't normally do Just Characters Swearing, but. ...this kind of wrote itself and then wouldn't leave my head. it comes from both a piece of character-writing advice that has always stuck with me, and also my conviction that Leona is 1000% funnier as a character if his dialogue has to stay G-rated. let Kalim say fuck, but don't let Leona say bastard.
How I look standing like 1 foot away from my friend waiting for them to start a conversation with me (they don’t know I’ve been walking beside/behind them for the past minute after spotting them from within the crowd and randomly joining their walk, and I thought they knew I was there from the start) :
How does nooroo feel about Tom in your villian dad au?
After initial introductions, Tom basically thinks Nooroo is a figment of his imagination and a testament to his mind crumbling from the grief of losing Sabine. Nooroo gets an inside look on what really matters to tom, though
Tom uses the butterfly miraculous not for himself, but for the benefit of his daughter. The vengeance he's trying to take on "Hawkmoth" isn't quite as simple as "you're responsible for the death of my wife," it stems from a very, very different source - which makes Nooroo more sympathetic to helping him.
He's still not thrilled, but, Marinette and Tom are so kind to him, he really can't find it in himself to complain.
I think Peter made a Sirius-Serious jar, much like a swear jar, in fifth year. He was totally fed up with hearing “no, I’M Sirius,” all the time. Every time a joke was made, they had to put a galleon in the jar.
Sirius was near broke by the end of the year, James had also lost a significant amount of money, and Remus only put one galleon in when Lily asked during a study session, “Are you fucking serious?” And he replied with “I wish.”
A Tiktok goes up on Eddie’s account that’s shot at an awkward angle like he’d originally set it up for a different reason but got distracted. The tone of Eddie’s voice clearly shows he’s teasing when Steve cuts him off.
Steve: Eddie, stop. Tommy never had a crush on me
Eddie: Baby, I hate to break it to you, but everybody who has ever met you has had at least a little bit of a crush on you
Steve: No. that’s not-
Tommy: Steve, I was in love with you
Steve: What, no?? No. You loved Carol.
Tommy: Yeah, I still love Carol but I was in love with you for years. Carol was too.
Tommy: You broke both our hearts when you left us for Wheeler
Steve:
Tommy: Seriously, you never knew? That wasn’t an act for social media? Did you think that we took all of our friends on dates?
Steve: That wasn’t - we were just…
Tommy: No one jokes that often about having a threesome without kinda meaning it
Steve: I - that… *slowly morphs into that surprise pikachu meme*
Everytime I hear about a school shooting my mind goes to the disabled students, teachers, and personnel who can’t hide as smoothly as others, whose disability doesn’t allow them to be quiet and still, who can’t run…
I mean, obviously it’s a situation no one should be in but I hope there is something in place to help disabled people during a school shooting.
