#am i crying??? maybe. who’s to say

[pwurrz]

also on that note i have BIG feelings about how quincy probably thinks yakumo is one of the strongest members of the clan, mentally speaking, because yakumo still has it in him to be a kind, compassionate and open-hearted person despite everything he’s been through because.. quincy knows how hard that is. quincy knows what it’s like to be hated and feared, excluding from society for things beyond his control.

and he especially knows how hard it is to continue being a person that wears their heart on their sleeve, despite everything. quincy knows exactly how hard that is, and he knows damn well he wasn’t able to do it. the grief of losing his loved ones and then being ostracized by the community that once loved and raised him was too intense, so he closed himself off from the world. he protected his heart by putting on the facade of being an uncaring, nonchalant person for so long that he actually started to believe he had become that person.

even now, after all the new connections he’s formed and memories he’s made, it’s difficult for him to admit he cares deeply for the people around him, and that he’s afraid of losing them.

but yakumo?? yakumo somehow still manages to love the world with all his heart. he hasn’t allowed the way people have treated him to turn him bitter, if anything, he uses those experiences as reasons to treat the few loved ones he has with even more unwavering compassion.

yakumo, who’s self image is clouded by hatred and fear, a result of internalizing everything he’s been told throughout his life, wakes up every morning and chooses to be the sweet person he always has been. he chooses to treat everyone he meets with kindness, even strangers, even people who definitely don’t deserve it. despite knowing there’s a high chance he’ll face some kind of rejection, yakumo opens his heart to people time and time again.

sure, he may be quick to cry, but that’s only because he cares so deeply. his tears, and how often he sheds them are not signs of weakness; quite the opposite, in fact. it takes unbelievable amounts of strength to continue to be soft in a world that’s done nothing but try to hurt you. that softness is a choice, and it was in no way an easy one to make.

quincy might know that better than anyone.

you ever just have a lot, a LOT of feelings all at once about a character and not even remotely enough words or brainpower to FORM the words to describe everything you're feeling. so it feels like you may explode. yeah

charles rowland is the type of person to end his marriage vows with "and you're my best mate" then think nothing of it

another little snippet of what's now 8k of Violet feeling like proper shit and thinking a baby might fix it (spoiler alert, it won't)

He cups her cheek and she hates herself a little bit for turning into the touch, for savouring the warmth and the feel of his hand against her skin. It’s been so long since she was last touched with any kind of affection that wasn’t from her dragons. It’s a testament to just how long that she lets him of all people. She squeezes her eyes closed tightly, willing herself to keep the tears at bay.

She’s missed it so much, the feel of someone else’s hands on her body. The comfort of a simple, platonic touch. She has missed the connection, the intimacy, the knowledge that someone cares. Gods, she thinks again, what she wouldn’t give for a simple hug.

“Vi,” he breathes, and there he goes again with the ‘Vi’, breaking down her walls even further. He sounds heartbroken and she can’t quite grasp why. He doesn’t care about her, so why does he suddenly sound like he does?

“I don’t think I’m okay,” she confesses and there’s no amount of squeezing her eyes closed that will hold the tears back now, not when she's finally uttered the truth that she has known intimately for months and months out loud. She feels the tears fall down her cheeks, leaving wet, hot tracks in their wake, like a map of her sadness. It doesn’t take long for his thumb to come up to wipe them away.

“I know,” he says, and there’s none of that brute efficiency or cold detachment she'd come to know from him during the war. His tone is gentle. It’s nothing like she remembers him, nothing like the picture she has of him in her mind. She doesn't know how to reconcile this version of him with the one who's only ever shown her indifference or frustration before.

She thinks that maybe peace time allows some to break down, and others to take care of the pieces that are left in ways that war time never could.

I think it is a very human need to scream and rage against horrors, even if the screaming and raging do not change a thing, because at least wipes the complicity off you. At least you can say that you said no. At least you know that someone sees you raging in their name and it brings them some hope and connection.

On the other hand, sometimes the screaming and raging does not only do nothing but it actually makes something worse. And then on the other hand, sometimes it makes all the difference, so that even when there are people screaming dangerous and wrong things, on the balance, it was good that you were out there.

And you can never know until after the fact. If you ever know at all.
