#So he had to burn everything down

[respectthepetty]

This post is my bible now, and I will open it daily to read the good word of truth.

Ray did everything right.

Everything.

Mew might have encouraged Ray to get together with Sand that one time but the entire friend group sits and discusses Boston's relationship while Ray withdraws more and more into himself.

Boston is in their group project with no expectations and Chuem even jokes about him helping but Ray has provided everything they're using for their project and he's just sitting there with a forced, fake smile that no one sees.

Ray is on the outside of his friendship group and they might care about him in the abstract but not one of them is looking out for him.

(God, Mew knowing that Top cheated with Boston and still punching Ray? Mew smiling at Top in the bedroom and saying Ray could basically get screwed? Mew telling Ray to get a ride home from Boston and not seeing his expression? Never realizing that Boston and Ray are barely friends and barely tolerated each other even before this? Ugh.)

Ray tries so hard not to be the burden everyone says he is when he's drunk that he doesn't actually get close with them.

The way he says he doesn't care if Mew will never love him or if it ruins their friendship because Mew deserves better? The way he is perfectly willing to destroy everything if it means Mew knows the truth?

Ray will destroy himself not to be who Boston says he was but he'll also destroy himself not to be who he thinks he is... even if the only way to avoid that is to literally stop being himself.

(Yes, this is a bit discombobulated but so is Ray.)

Something I love about the implications of the new ‘elemental’ weapons in totk is the idea that link is powering these things himself.

Like, in the first game the weapons were always on - they powered up whether they were being held or sheathed or even dropped. Give a monster a smack, drop it on the ground and it’ll light back up in a few seconds. Generally, this meant that link didn’t have magic, unlike other games in the series. Even the champion’s abilities were just that - the champion’s! He just indicated when to light it up!

But in totk it’s very different. Now, he’s crafting and powering his own gear. The gems were long theorised to be the main ingredient creating magic items, like elemental arrows or enchanted jewellery and armour, and now we have proof!! He’s even learned how to do it himself! Combining gems, or even monster parts to his weapons and lighting them up whenever he wants! Turns them on and off at will! He’s learned to channel magic sometime between botw and totk, something not all heroes learn to do! In fics he’s long been one of the few to have no magic talent whatsoever, and now that’s changed! Wild can officially join the ranks of the magic users!

There’s also the issue of where he learned it and who taught him, but the answer is pretty obvious, and speaks volumes of how far Zelda has come on her own journey.

so I guess I'm unemployed now because my coworker and bosses husband, also my dads best friend who we've known for decades, the same man who's youngest daughter is almost the same age as me, decided to be a despicable gross loser and leave me a love letter on Thanksgiving in which he called me his "soulmate" because we shared music together and I drove in his stupid car twice

I still can't forgive Horikoshi for setting up Hawks to be in the perfect position to change the system and then have him... not do that

What kind of love are you?

Violet: Love as a Threshold

Your love does not ask for much. Your love does not take. Your love is free, and unquestioned, and here for wherever needs it. When you fall in love, it is as gentle as a breath in the night. It is quiet, and it is effortless. It is tender. If your love was a house, it would readily welcome all who come through. If your love was a hearth, it would warm the hands of whoever stopped by, whether for a day, a month, a year, or forever. When you fall for someone, it is without strings, without conditions, without need. You love for the sake of loving, for the sake of caring for those who need it. You love with a giver’s heart and a giver’s hands and are made so much stronger for it. Being loved by you is to always feel at home. Your love may not always be well-received by those unprepared to linger, but it is unforgettable all the same

The second I saw this answer for Violet I knew it was perfect. Their entire romance with Astarion was about patience. Waiting for him to realize that he's truly safe with them, that they doesn't expect anything from him, that he is in the lead here and they'll follow only when he's ready and okay. And waiting without judgement, Violet knows these things take time and they were more than willing to wait, to be there, to just sit and exist with him while he figures shit out. And when he truly let Violet in, I like to think it was like with a comforting sigh, the feeling of coming home, that feeling when all pressure is lifted and you can just *exist* without fear, without judgement.

Violet has seen violence and hatred and yet chooses to show up for those they love as a place of calm and stability, without judgement, without expectations. Violet's love is patient, it doesn't expect anything back but will give you everything just because we all deserve to feel warmth and safety. They feel so much warmth in their heart that they were able to help Astarion get to a place where he feels safe. I think even if they didn't fall in love or end up together, Violet would have still shown up for him in the same way. They know what suffering is like, they've gone through enough of it themselves and come out the other end alive. They know how much it hurts, but also how much easier it is with someone to lean on.
