A War of Seasons, Chapter 5: Jon

To the Night's Watch, You will return the bones of my brother to his home, where he can rest with his kin, along with an emissary to explain in full the details of his "execution." House Stark deserves at least that much consideration from you, and I will tolerate nothing less. I will not condition aid to the Night's Watch upon these demands, but be warned that winter is coming. The crow, like the wolf, dies when it is friendless and alone. My brother, your Lord Commander, knew this to be true. His family knows the same. Sansa Stark Lady of Winterfell

"What a bitch," Tormund said in respectful awe.

[Charlie Day conspiracy meme voice] so the thing is, right, is that Rust and Marty don't actually like each other back in '95. but their gambit with Crash is from '95. and Marty should absolutely explore the concept of Crash. carnally. which means he has to bring it up post 2012, when they're basically married and also working the PI firm together and not really married-married. because it's actually less weird if it's a sex thing within the context of an established romantic/sexual relationship, so they CANNOT be fucking in this timeline at this point. which means that either they have to do it for a case (unlikely: Rust is too much of a working dog for this to be fun) (he would be On Task the whole time) or Marty just has to bring up one day that Crash seemed like a good time. and he doesn't mean it like good time (sexual) except for how deep down he does, so he says it like good time (no homo) and either way Rust is like "what the fuck makes you think Crash was having a good time?" like EVER in his goddamn life. And Marty has to be like, didn't say he was having a good time, said he seemed like he would be a good time, which definitely sounds like good time (sexual) not good time (no homo), which is mortifying, but Rust is still stuck on the suffering of it all so he's not parsing the tone anyway, but mister acts of service is riled up now about this so he's grousing like "well I need some fuckin prep time to do this you can't spring this shit on me all sudden like," and Marty is like i ain't asking you to do this! i ain't asking you to do shit! (internally: what the FUCK are we doing?) and then he's like this is stupid we're done talking about this we're done here everybody shut the fuck up forever.

and then Rust shows up like two days later and oh shit he's in the Jacket. also probably on more drugs than Marty wants to even consider. and then the guys obviously do not actually immediately fuck because they are very married yet also cannot communicate for shit even post 2012 and no one is actually on the same page yet and wantin' things is horribly shameful anyhow so DON'T LOOK at your desires!! secret or not! do not look! so they have to be stupid about everything and go discover if they're too old for bar fights or not so we can get to the hurt/comfort of it all. and then of course eventually they fuck and Marty realizes that, no, actually, now that he's gotten that out of his system, what he really wants is to fuck Rust and then Rust has to be like, you don't have to be so goddamn Jungian about it, Marty, fuck.

and they kiss. the end.

Also increasingly aware that a LOT of people "manage" getting through the 40+ hour work week by sleeping less than is healthy and relying on stimulants like coffee and energy drinks to keep them going.

For people who are unwilling or unable to do this...work really does just dominate your life. Like we really should not have to rely on unhealthy practices just to have a social life or keep on top of housework or whatever.

I know I post about this a lot but I'm so TIRED all the time and it's just so depressing that this is how we're expected to spend the one life we have.

what's with the weird glorification of smoking that's come back lately

like

I've seen so many posts that paint opposing smoking as some impossibly Loser-ish or puritanical stance and I really don't get it

it makes you, your house, and your clothing stink, destroys your teeth, and gives you lung cancer. opposing it is. Correct. obviously addiction is very complicated and quitting can be hard, but just saying "smoking is gross and harmful as a practice (including vaping)" is True and Right actually

some of you have never grown up hearing about how some beloved family member died a slow, agonized, wasting death of smoking-induced cancer, or watching it firsthand for yourself, and it shows
