What the fuck was the point of this?
No, seriously, what the fuck was the point of this? How bad at writing do you have to be to have such huge amounts of money thrown at a series and not even manage a self-contained story? Season 3 is basically justĀ the prequel to season 4. There is almost no point to watching it by itself.
Letā€™s review:
Luther is more or less the only person who progresses in this story. He finally gets to see and acknowledge Reginald for who he really is so thatā€™s progress, but I feel like heā€™s been seriously dumbed down for this season and he has even less authority as number 1 than before. Even when heā€™s deadĀ his immediate response is to wail on his brother, who is also dead. Then, the ending takes away his physical characteristics so now heā€™d just a doubly boring white man.
Diego has...some development? We kinda already knew heā€™d be a reasonableĀ guardian because we see him shepherding Klaus and everyone else around in the other seasons, but season 3 shows us him enabling Alisonā€™s meltdown and basically shrugging off the death of the boy he got super attached to during his babysitting stint and theyā€™re trying to make him out to be excellent father material? Buddy, heā€™s got a start but he has a long way to go regarding responsibility, especially with Lila as the mother, who has shown no compunction about manipulating him and taking and dumping children. Theyā€™re both terrible for each other.
Alison. Wow. Alison. Good show for a dirty mental breakdown; I didnā€™t appreciate the way she went off on her siblings, especiallyĀ Viktor, but personal dislike of the character doesnā€™t mean it wasnā€™t a good depiction of messy grief. However, what was the payoff? We have several times in the show where sheā€™s talking about having to live with the grief and keeping Ray and Claireā€™s memory in her heart, but the show decides to pay tribute to this by killing her off? How is this a good follow-through for the hints they were dropping about moving on from loss through the episodes?
Klaus gets to master his powers - hurray! And what does that get him? Basically nothing. His siblings are no more concerned about him dying than ever before, he got no more or less sober and apparently all his screen time is dedicated to either him falling for theĀ ā€˜good fatherā€™ act that eventually gets betrayed or for him to just die repeatedly. Literally no change from the first to last episode developmentally.
Five tries to retire and doesnā€™t get to. He spends the whole season swinging wildly between trying to save the world and letting it go. We find out he actually founded the Commission, for which there is no follow through in the season. He loses an arm but actually he doesnā€™t, so the timeline might or might not still go as before. No development either.
Ben is quite different from the Ben weā€™ve seen previously. We get to see him go through a lot of stages ofĀ ā€˜I want daddy to be proud of meā€™ but by the end he doesnā€™t care any more about his fellow Sparrows or about the Umbrellas than at the beginning. Thereā€™s a little convo between him and Sloane before the wedding but thatā€™s essentially it grieving wise. He walks off at the end apparently completely content with the way things have turned out.
Viktor gets the most and least development. Obviously Elliotā€™s own transition is worked into the character in a way that was maybe a little bit fast for me but the producers probably didnā€™t want him to have to play Vanya for any longer than necessary so itā€™s fine. His relationship with Luther was...a bit of a surprise? But good relationship wise. It was painful seeing him being wailed on by Alison all the time for what was, comparatively, a very small misstep in the scheme of things - itā€™s not like he killed anyone, he just lied about manslaughter that happened 30 years ago by omission. He didnā€™t deserve the anger he got from Alison for that. But hereā€™s what irritated me - he was more or less stuck as a bit of a wet towel in regards to that. He was perceived as a leader by a lot of the Sparrows, but he never got to really grow into that position by the end of the season. What did he gain from this? His transition and what? He was still the same character by the end as before.
The Sparrows sucked as characters. Sorry, but itā€™s true. We get introduced to them and half of them we never really learn more than their names and powers before theyā€™re killed off. Fei at least should have survived until the end so there could be more of a dynamic between her and Ben; they seemed theĀ ā€˜closestā€™ if weā€™re going by interaction (and love and hate are very interchangeable when it comes to Hargreeves as we know) and I would have loved to find out more about her even if I wasnā€™t too keen about her outfit choices. As for Sloane. she is the most cookie-cutter, milquetoast Taylee-McKarty cheerleader-who-married-the-jock girl they could have picked. Her and Lutherā€™s four day or whatever romance was so incredibly boring I groaned every time I had to be subjected to it. And for what? Sheā€™s there, she tells Luther how cool the moon is, she cries when heā€™s gone and then sheā€™s erased with the new timeline. Sorry, you killed off Fei and Jayme for her? Rookie mistake.
In the end, season 3 was blatantly nothing more than a prequel to season 4. I think thereā€™s probably a lot of unresolved set-ups in 3 that will pay off ifĀ they make a fourth season. The Umbrellas are just as dysfunctional as before, and there was less time devoted this season to fun sibling relationships in favour of being absolute shits to each other (and especially Viktor) and forcing romances in. At the end they all seem to just be fine with Alison dying and immediately split, even after three seasonsĀ of ā€˜family thisā€™ and ā€˜family thatā€™. Oh and Harland was there, we found out he suffered and his mother suffered and he was killed off in a pointless way that was more or less brushed off and forgiven soon after. Great plot point that was no plot point at all.Ā

Musicality
Ok I LOVE this story!! I made a whole story based off a lil convo @jemtoka and I had, and I made ocā€™s based off each of us and went to town. It was very fun to write, and I got to combine my music knowledge with my writing skills.
Enjoy!
When Benji had first set out to find the ghost of Beethoven, he wasnā€™t actually sure that heā€™d be able to do it. His brother had once called him ā€œall bite and no barkā€, a reference to the fact that out of the four brothers, Benji had been the only one to not outgrow his infant habit of biting things- or people- when stressed. But in this situation, he definitely felt like heā€™d bitten off more than he could chew.
He absentmindedly chewed on his chewing necklace as he drafted a grant proposal with his friend, Mujika. Muji was drawing in a notebook, something for his art classes, though he looked up when prompted to review the words that had appeared on Benjiā€™s screen. Muji had done his fair share of research, and though he did want to help with the writing of the research paper, it had been agreed that Benji was the moreā€¦ academic writer. The two of them had met through social media a couple of years ago, and once theyā€™d started direct messaging, had become close friends quickly through a mesh of shared interests, similar humor, and a half-baked scheme to take over the world.
Which led them here, to a table in the back of a 24-hour McDonalds, Benji chewing the head off a stiff chewable bat pendant and Muji using his nocturnal tendencies to do things like ā€œmake sure his friend drank water and didnā€™t forget that he was a person.ā€
ā€œFo you fink ish bit avou duh Immoruhl Bewuved ith done? Ish kinda duh hoh vashis of arr puhposal soā€¦ā€ Benji trailed off, jaw absentmindedly moving over the poor bat, whose head was holding on by sheer force of will to the rest of its body.
ā€œWhat?ā€ Muji asked. He did not speak bat-in-mouth.
Benji pulled the pendant out of his mouth with an audible pop. ā€œYā€™think this bit about the Immortal Beloved is finished? Itā€™s like, the whole basis of our proposal n shit.ā€
He turned the laptop towards Muji, who closed his notebook, set it to the side, and pulled the laptop in front of him. He read it quietly, and Benji began to tap out the beat to the song playing on low volume in his earbuds. He began to hum, too, murmuring lyrics under his breath as he stared off into the distance.
ā€œI think it looks good.ā€ Muji finally replied, turning the laptop back toward Benji and grabbing his notebook again. ā€œI canā€™t think of anything else we could add to that section.ā€
Benji gave a little half shrug. ā€œI guess youā€™re right.ā€
The two of them once again worked in solitude, only broken by Benji ordering fries at about 1 AM. At 3, they decided to call it quits, though Benji seemed more wired than ever and voiced some apprehension about ā€œgoing to sleep when thereā€™s so much work to be done, Muji!ā€ Muji chastised him slightly and promised that they could come back the next day- or rather, later that day- to finish up. There were only slight revisions to be done, then it could be sent off to the Music Master Scholars, an organization dedicated to the care and keeping of the ghosts widely considered Music Masters, which included household names like Mozart and Beethoven, but also lesser-known composers like Joseph Bologne and Francesca Caccini.
Ghosts were, of course, a commonplace occurrence, though one could theoretically live their life without interacting with one. That was rare, though; ghosts had a tendency to wander, though they could only appear in places that held significance to them in life and graveyards, but even living in a house increased the average personā€™s chances of encountering a ghost exponentially.
But these ghosts were special, because of the knowledge they possessed and the lives theyā€™d lead. The Music Master Scholars were the only people in the world who both knew and had access to the location of every ghost, and to join their ranks, one had to find the location of one of the ā€˜hiddenā€™ Music Masters- of which Beethoven was the most hidden. Their non-administrative members were unknown, but said to be most, if not all, of the foremost music scholars in the world. How could they not be, with the Masters themselves guiding their research?
Benji and Muji really, really wanted to be Music Master Scholars.
When he was 10, Benji had been given some sort of ā€œyoung musicianā€ scholarship to visit Europe for a month. He was a double bassist, a dying breed in the modern age, and the fact that he had progressed from monotonic exercises to Baroque sinfonias in the span of four months had impressed his teachers.
His parents had gone along, too, mostly because they knew their child, and Benji did have a propensity to get into trouble. Devilā€™s luck, his mother had tsked, and that had been that.
Heā€™d managed to escape the group in the middle of a museum, though he didnā€™t wander far. He just wanted to look at everything without feeling like people were constantly breathing down his neck.
Well. HE didnā€™t consider ā€œthe park near the museumā€ to be far. His parents did, though, he found out later.
At the park, he found a man. Well, not a man. A ghost. The ghost was staring wistfully at the museum in the distance, and started when he noticed a small child staring at him.
ā€œHi! Who are you?ā€ Benji asked, clutching the stuffed animal his parents had gotten him at another museum the day before.
The ghost cleared his throat. ā€œIā€™m uhā€¦ā€ He started in a raspy voice before pausing and clearing his throat again. ā€œIā€™m,ā€ He sighed. ā€œIā€™m Johannes Brahms.ā€
ā€œYo-hahn Brahmzzzz.ā€ Benji repeated, drawing out the last ā€œsā€ sound. ā€œOh! You did music, right?ā€
Brahms smiled slightly, and nodded.
The two of them talked for a while before Benjiā€™s parents arrived, harried and frustrated. They apologized profusely to the ghost, who insisted it hadnā€™t been a problem.
The whole experience left Benji starry-eyed, and with the help of a friend heā€™d made in Germany, he would call and converse with Brahms for hours, asking about counterpoint and meaning and technique and just in general picking his mind. The composer took this with grace, and seemed more than happy to answer the young musicianā€™s questions. When heā€™d told Benji about the Scholars, Benji had immediately decided that he was going to be a Music Master Scholar.
Muji had played violin until heā€™d dropped out of high school to take care of his mom, and hadnā€™t resumed it until after him and Benji had been talking for a while. He didnā€™t know much about composition, but he loved music history, and after getting his GED and enrolling in college, had even majored in it. Plus, he just kinda just thought the whole thing was cool.
Theyā€™d been researching for a year and a half, with pointers from Brahms, and tips from a professor Benjiā€™d had two years ago, a Classical scholar named Dr. Chang. Benji had once emailed her and asked, point-blank, if she was a Music Master Scholar, but sheā€™d only sent back a cryptic winky face emoji in response.
The next day, after three more hours of sitting in McDonalds, revising the proposal (most of which was Muji saying ā€œBenji it looks fine!ā€ and Benji responding with ā€œNo, no, this comma in paragraph seven just makes it sound better! Ties it all together, donā€™t you think?ā€), it was sent off in an email, and Benji resolved not to think about it while Muji resolved to mention it at the most inopportune moments, just to mess with his friend a little.
They were approved a month later, and three months after that day at McDonalds, they were sitting on a plane heading to Austria, Benji mouthing practice phrases in German as Muji slept. They had about a month to traipse all over Europe in search of a ghost very few people had been able to find, and they were excited to start.
The first week was spent in Austria, visiting Beethovenā€™s own grave (a nonstarter; the ghosts there hadnā€™t seen Beethoven since he was buried, and none knew where heā€™d gone), his childhood home and the area surrounding.
Nothing.
The second week was spent in Vienna. There, they visited the ghost of Mozart, who was a fidgety, flighty sort. He was known for being somewhat immaterial, and often took to jumping on top of objects in a manner that caused the people around them to panic for a few seconds before realizing he was too immaterial to do anything more than whisper vaguely about his childhood. Heā€™d tried to pet Mujiā€™s hair and got annoyed when nothing happened, so it wasnā€™t a particularly long visit.
They tried to visit Haydn, but while the location of Haydnā€™s ghost was well-known, only Music Master Scholars were allowed to see him, as he claimed the crowds exhausted him, and he wanted to be able to give his full attention to those visiting him. It made sense, since ghosts used massive amounts of energy to communicate and interact with the world around them, and the more energy they expended, the less time they were able to spend on earth. Despite this, the two Ā of them did make an effort, but were summarily barred from entering.
ā€œNext time!ā€ Benji declared confidently as they walked to their next potential Beethoven hot spot.
They visited Brahms, who had resolved to meet them in Vienna upon learning they were coming, and spent a whole day with him, visiting locations which had been important to him and letting his impromptu history lessons wash over them with a look of awed reverence.
Beethoven wasnā€™t in Vienna, and by the third week the two friends were feeling the threat of rejection hot on their heels. They began keeping odd hours, trying their hardest to figure out their next move.
ā€œMaybe we should reread our proposal? Clearly the Scholars saw something in it, right?ā€ Muji theorized from the bed heā€™d claimed as his their first night in the hotel.
ā€œMmmm.ā€ Benji responded from his position on the floor at the foot of his bed, still feeling the after-effects of a well-deserved mental breakdown.
ā€œCome on, Benji!ā€ Muji tried to motivate him. ā€œWe can do it! Youā€™re a super cool music spy, remember?ā€
Benji huffed at the reminder of an old, inane conversation between the two. ā€œI donā€™t know, Muji. I think itā€™s kinda pointless.ā€
ā€œCome on, Benji!ā€ Muji tried again. ā€œThis is like, your dream! Itā€™s now or never! Put our mutual brain cell to use so we can find Beethoven!ā€
Benji sighed and got up. ā€œFine, fine.ā€ He murmured as he got off the floor, grabbed his copy of the proposal from his bag, laid down on the bed, and stuffed another chewable pendant into his mouth. ā€œWetā€™s fee.ā€
Silence reigned for a few, brief seconds, before Muji suddenly exclaimed, ā€œHey! We never checked out anything about the Immortal Beloved, right?ā€
Benji sat up straight on his bed and spit out the pendant. ā€œHoly shit, we never checked out anything about the Immortal Beloved.ā€
After a quick Google search, two train tickets, a couple of sandwiches, and a dash through the rain, they arrived at the Frankfurt Main Cemetery. There, they asked after the name theyā€™d listed in their proposal as the possible Immortal Beloved, and the ghosts pointed them towards the back of the cemetery.
In a ghost grotto, they found a woman, calmly humming the tune from one of the Diabelli variations, though in their excitement neither Benji nor Muji could name the tune.
ā€œAre you-ā€œ Benji paused and took a couple of deep breaths. ā€œAre you the Immortal Beloved?
The woman stopped humming and smiled at them.
ā€œAh, that is a moniker I have not heard in some time.ā€ She arose and walked away from them, lifting her skirts elegantly in a manner which conveyed a sense of class. ā€œCome; I think you are the ones Iā€™ve been expecting.ā€
The two followed after her eagerly and looked confused when they stopped at a mail office in town. There, she reached into a P.O. box, pulled out a silver envelope, and gave it to Benji.
ā€œThis is yours.ā€ She murmured. ā€œPlease do come to visit; itā€™s rare that I receive visitors.ā€
With this, she disappeared.
The two stared at the envelope for a couple of seconds before Benji eagerly opened it, accidentally ripping the envelope in half. He then read it, brow furrowing in confusion.
ā€œWhatā€™s it say?ā€ Asked Muji, eagerly, from over his shoulder.
ā€œIt saysā€¦ itā€™s just numbers? I donā€™t get it.ā€ Benji gave him the paper, trying to puzzle out what it meant.
Muji frowned, then plugged the numbers into Google.
ā€œItā€™s a location!ā€ He burst out, excitedly shoving the phone in Benjiā€™s face.
The two of them hurriedly called a taxi, listing the location Mujiā€™s phone had given them. They were dropped off in front of the building, and saw someone standing at the entrance. They showed the person (a Scholar!) their letter, and with a large smile, they were taken inside, their guide walking confidently as Benji and Muji trailed behind them. The interior of the building was long and winding, which left the two feeling as though theyā€™d been deceived by the outward appearance of the building. The building had looked small and unassuming, and this place was built like a maze. They were sure theyā€™d be lost if they tried to head back without a guide.
Near the end of the path they heard the sound of a piano playing, and warm light spilled into the hallway. They eagerly rushed ahead, much to the amusement of the Scholar.
There, facing the wall, conducting half a beat behind the sound coming from the recorder behind him, stood Beethoven.
Benji gasped, and clutched Mujiā€™s shoulder. He pointed ecstatically at the figure in the room. ā€œItā€™s Beethoven!!!ā€ He stage-whispered.
Muji smiled widely as he nodded back. ā€œYeah!!ā€
The two of them turned around when a voice behind them cleared. The Scholar gave them each a thick letter with the recognized seal of the Music Master Scholars on the back, and the two of them stared at it, unsure of what to do.
ā€œWell?ā€ The Scholar prompted, rocking back and forth on their heels. ā€œArenā€™t you going to open it?ā€
Benji ripped into his envelope first, completely abandoning the flap as he tore the side off. His hands shook as he pulled out a letter on creamy white stationary. He skimmed the words and began crying, clutching the letter and envelope to his chest.
Muji was slightly more careful, removing the letter from the envelope via the flap and pulling out the other contents of the envelope. A laminated membership card, a list of locations of other ghosts, and an alphabetized list of other Scholars with contact info and a small bio were also in the envelope. He pulled out each one, looked at it, and put it back in the envelope. He then stopped and held the envelope in his hands, staring at it.
After about ten minutes, the guide worriedly asked Muji, ā€œIs Benji alright? Heā€™s been crying for a while.ā€
Muji nodded absentmindedly. ā€œYeah, he cried for like two hours after I finished streaming Crisis Core for him.ā€ At the guideā€™s look of confusion, he added, ā€œVideo game.ā€
The guide made a small noise of understanding and nodded.
When Benjiā€™s sobs finally faded into sniffles, the three of them began the trek out of the building.
ā€œSorry this route is so long.ā€ The Scholar apologized. ā€œOh! Also! I forgot to introduce myself.ā€ They paused and turned, offering their hand. ā€œIā€™m Soraya Cham! I was the last person to find Beethovenā€™s ghost. When I heard about you guys, I got excited, really. I was rooting for you!ā€
The two of them shook her hand and nodded, unsure what else to say.
Soraya continued, then hailed a taxi when they reached the road. They waved goodbye to Benji and Muji as the two of them got in the backseat.
ā€œWe did it!ā€ Benji shouted once they were back at their hotel.

True Damage!Yasuo x reader - Iā€™m glad youā€™re evil too.
Tumblr media
A/N: I was inspired by Ashe's cover of ā€œI'm glad you're evil tooā€ and I absolutely loved it. Here goes nothing! There might be some errors, Iā€™ve read it many times and canā€™t find anything anymore, but can happen. Sorry.
word count: 6,311 requested: no. warnings: Cursing, as in most of my posts. Welp~!^^ + It can be messy, I never wrote a long fic and english is being hard for me :(
Yasuo loved music since forever, and knew he was talented himself. Everyone around him praised him if he had shown them his own beats. He was DJ for every school party hosted, even volunteered to be on his own prom night, but everyone said heā€™s fine to go and party for once.Ā 
He didnā€™t want to party, nor to dance.Ā  He wanted to be behind the laughs and screams, making it fun for others.Ā  He knew that he wasnā€™t very social. I mean, he was friendly, sometimes flirty, but social? He prefered reading mangas, watching animes and making music, this was all he wanted.
And thatā€™s how the popular DJ works alone since forever. Loner genius who was out of reach for most of musicians. No one was worthy working with him. One didnā€™t had enough passion, other just wasnā€™t it. And he searched for something.Ā 
Musical something was found with a rise of ā€œGiantsā€, or so called ā€œTrue Damageā€ group. They had something he searched in music, but why he still felt empty?Ā 
Ekko and girls always asked him out: -After-party maybe, Yas? - Akali smiles while bending down a little to make that ā€˜sneaky-happyā€™ pose. - As if, I had some beat idea I need to work on, Akali. - he gives her a hand with a motion of ā€˜stopā€™ while saying no. And some other time: - Yo, bro, you up for a drink after recording? - Ekko stopped him before he went off for his break. - You can manage without me, Ekko. You have fun anyway. - murmured long haired man, avoiding eye contact. And another after some: - Donā€™t act all cold and mysterious, ninja, while youā€™re drooling over some drawn big-eyed girls and come on, you have nothing better to do! - huffed Qiyana, crossing her arms on chest. - Thanks for your not-asked-for opinion, princess. - and he added nothing more. That lasted, and the longer he avoided friendly meetings, Senna tried to talk up: - Iā€™m worried about you, Yasuo. Want to take a walk? - you could feel her concern only by looking her into eyes. Thatā€™s kind of her, but... - Thank you, Senna, but you have bigger problems than my own on your head. How is your husband, by the way? - he didnā€™t meant to be rude, and Senna understood. - Lucianā€™s fine, heā€™d appreciate you asking, even though you talked only once. And youā€™re never a problem, remember. He only waved her away, heading to home, to do his ownĀ  things. He prefered it that way, or so he thought.Ā 
With time, things he enjoyed stopped meaning anything. For example, which hurt him the most: He was so enthusiastic for Star Guardian series, but damn it, he stopped feeling happiness with every single update from mangaka. It hurt. He knew something was off, so he thought heā€™ll find himself correspondence buddy. Join some group connected to the series, noone will know heā€™s popular and will chat about Guardians as heā€™d love someone to and thatā€™s what he did! TheUnforgiven01: hi. TheUnforgiven01: iā€™ll let myself into convo, if thatā€™s fine. ezpezlemonsquez: Thatā€™s what that chat is for, of course! We were just discussing which group was better in many aspects, then compared aspect to the other. TheUnforgiven01: sounds fun, i guess? but itā€™s obvious ahri teamā€™s better, they had more morality about disappearing, and ahri as the leader took a step of redemption for her stars, nothing to even try to compare to. [nick]: Oh okay. Your opinion is valid but actually is not.Ā 
Yasuo raised his brow. Oh, someoneā€™s mad? ā€œValidā€, heā€™s mad now too.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: and that means? iā€™m right and youā€™re not, i suppose. youā€™re mad abt it? [nick]: Okay, Unforgiven, listen to me now. I am longer in this group and always argued morally about everything, but plain and stupid, unexplained opinions of stubborn kids like you just piss me off. What if someone find staying by rules more morally-right, huh? Ever consider that? TheUnforgiven01: if youā€™d like to die just because you were chosen by some glitter and glory of first star then fine, but some werenā€™t, they were normal teenagers under disguise, what about their families? ezpezlemonsquez: Guys, youā€™re starting to fight and itā€™s not cool, can you chill?? [nick]: They knew about the risk by agreeing! Being chosen is one, but agreeing is their own fucking choice!!!Ā  TheUnforgiven01: and YOUā€™D be fine with dying, [nick] ? [nick]: Of course not! But anyone can die while saving the world, not because of losing a light, you know? If not that, there is the risk of being corrupted, like Xayah and Rakan, isnā€™t that right?? TheUnforgiven01: and it hurt, but they can be saved, and by dying officially you cannot do shit about it, yeah?Ā  ShiningBrightTonite: If you wonā€™t stop acting up Iā€™ll have to mute you both until tomorrow, keep it down! TU, you just joined and make a fight right away, can you give me a reason to let you stay?
Yasuoā€™s hands twitched. He ALMOST dissed admin, and that would be it, poof and no corresponding buddy for him. He sighed deeply, took himself some longer moments and only typed. TheUnforgiven01: sorry. iā€™ll join next discussion and be all innocent and sweet, like newborn baby. [nick]: Newborns are wrinkly and ugly.Ā  ShiningBrightTonite: [nick] !! [nick]: Just saying. TheUnforgiven01: aight, ama head out.Ā 
~TheUnforgiven01 has left the chat~
That was it for today.Ā 
Yasuo just took a quick shower, ate one sandwich and went to sleep, while blasting music on his headphones. Way to deal with his nerves.
About your sideā€¦
Generally youā€™re the angel of this community, youā€™re always passionate and calm about others opinion, but this dude just pressed the wrong button by his like...third message? No one saw you this mad, and this group had many dramas which YOU were most of the times reason to stop, but now? Some admins laughed about that in admin chatroom with you about it, but let you be with a slight warning, friendly nudge on the arm with ā€˜donā€™t do that next time, heā€™s new and doesnā€™t know how to hang on things, ya kno?ā€™ So you went with it. Even decided to apolagize to this dude in pm. The question was: today or tomorrow? Tomorrow sound more appealing, but if you do it now, you wonā€™t have to do that tomorrow, so itā€™s now. You sighed deeply, itā€™s been an hour and a half, so you hoped heā€™s cooled down too.Ā 
[nick]: Sorry to bother you in your ā€œprivate messageā€ zone, but I thought about all this situation and Iā€™m sorry for how I acted, really? Not like all fault was mine, we both know that, itā€™s just...I shouldnā€™t had curse and stuff. Iā€™m not generally bad, I hope you donā€™t hold any grudge to me. Weā€™ll chat on a group, ye?Ā 
ā€¦
And no answer. Maybe he is that furious? You sure hoped he wasnā€™t. Or she. Or anyone that was. With a heavy sigh you stood up, got yourself warm cup of tea to chill a little bit more. Youā€™ll go to sleep...eventually.Ā 
By sleep you mean passing out on your desk, face down. Your poor arms...and back...itā€™ll hurt, thatā€™s for sure. Watching Netflix till late was a bad idea. Good thing itā€™s weekend, right? Your day of freedom from responsibilities!Ā 
What time is itā€¦?
You locked your eyes on your roomā€™s clock which was 6 minutes late from time but youā€™re too lazy to fix that. It was - according to your always late clock - 01:06 pm. You still felt sleepy, but itā€™ll be fine, right? Slowly, you rubbed your wake-up tears from your eyes and looked at screen in front of you. A few pings from group chat from admin role and one private message. Huh, neat, time to eat- hold on, wait a minute. Private message? You sat up straightly and clicked on it right away. This is this unforgiven fella! After you wrote this short message you grinned weakly and went off of your room to wake up properly.
TheUnforgiven01: no problem, itā€™s nice how you defend what you believe in.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: am sorry too.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: not sure if i am good at chatting in group, but we always can hit each other up here? TheUnforgiven01: if you want to TheUnforgiven01: and i didnā€™t mean to sound weird TheUnforgiven01: ah whatever, answer here if you want or not, bye.
You made yourself your favourite breakfast, ate and thought about this little spam that person did. Kinda cute, maybe theyā€™re self-concious, and joining chatting group was overhelming? Youā€™ll answer after refreshing cup of [coffee/tea/hot chocolate], you promised yourself. You never write to anyone before morning cup. To summarizeĀ  your morning routine, the hot drink had to be in your now favourite cup. Earlier one got shattered into pieces by your unaware of consequences cat. You werenā€™t mad at it, but at yourself for leaving the cup on windowsill instead of hiding it properly. That kind of sad event for you made you buy this cup from that new music group you enjoyed listening to. True Damage, wasnā€™t it? You never liked rap, but this boy Ekko nailed stuff. You loved everyone equally in this group, but never understood that long-haired, masked (you assumed) asian man and his influence. He was there, maybe he made the music in the background, compositor? He seemed too mysterious for you, but meh. He fit groupā€™s aesthetic, and you were sure he had his place in there, and itā€™s fine. Maybe you figure it out once you see them live, since, what a shocker, they had a tour around the world and were not only in your country, but in your town too! They'll be here in likeā€¦ 6 months from now? You can't wait! Bonus to that: No long trip ahead of you, just buying tickets and going, you were hyped for that.
Meanwhile this waterfall of thoughts you managed to drink and eat everything, and as responsible as you can get, you washed the dishes right away, going back to your PC to answer this maybe-shy fella.
[nick]: Didnā€™t figured youā€™d like to talk ā€˜privatelyā€™, but whatever floats your boat ;)Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i changed my mind, donā€™t write to me again. [nick]: Hey, hey! I was just joking around, donā€™t be like that! :(( TheUnforgiven01: i am unforgiven, and you are too in this situation. TheUnforgiven01: i honestly joined to make one friend in this group and leave TheUnforgiven01: and didnā€™t got any chance of meeting anyone else but you TheUnforgiven01: and you wrote to me first into priv, so thatā€™s the start. TheUnforgiven01: can it stay like that?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: if we wonā€™t like each other itā€™s chill to just say oficial bye and stop, just sayin. [nick]: As for someone who types so fast you donā€™t make that much of typos, isnā€™t that amazing?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: maubie. TheUnforgiven01: maybe* TheUnforgiven01: fuck you just jinxed it.Ā 
You genuely laughed by this little mistake, you didnā€™t saw that coming and it amused you. You werenā€™t much of a talkative person yourself, but writing to someone, not seeing their face and such was much easier. And consequences of making yourself of a fool are much smaller than knowing someone from the same - letā€™s assume - town. [nick]: Iā€™m sorry I did, but the moment I picked to say that was funny, wasnā€™t it? Nothing to be ashamed off, it often happens to me too! TheUnforgiven01: didnā€™t saw you make a typo yet. [nick]: Because Iā€™m giving way too much attention not to do a typo since I want to make a good impression on you. Sounds good? TheUnforgiven01: ā€¦ TheUnforgiven01: sounds good, relatable actually.Ā 
Well, now at least you know youā€™re stuck in the same situation.Ā 
And that awkward situation was two weeks ago.Ā 
Now? Now youā€™re talking daily. From all you know, your, as he called it - corresponding buddy - is a very busy he. He didnā€™t revealed his real name, which you assumed that heā€™s embarassed about it. You told him what youā€™re doing in life generally, while he just said heā€™s normal, let me quote: ā€œbig-ass adult who lives with parents but work in some fast-food, at least iā€™m trying.ā€ which was cool for you, at least he didnā€™t lock himself in his parentsā€™ basement. Unforgiven was a chill dude and at the beginning you thought heā€™d only hit you up with Star Guardian topics, but later? You started talking about yourselves, about other interests.Ā 
[nick]: Hey? [nick]: I assume youā€™re busy today, againā€¦ [nick]: I was wondering, what are you busy with? I mean, you said you work on some fast-food place, then sit in your room, are you gaming? Iā€™d understand that, I was just...thinking. [nick]: Sorry if I seem pushy, itā€™s just that I really grew on chatting with you and was wondering when are you free again! Heh.Ā  [nick]:Ā Weā€™ll talk later, then, hit me up when you can!
You pushed yourself back on your chair, groaning. You totally were pushy, but didnā€™t meant to - thatā€™s what you thought, but itā€™s totally normal, youā€™re just interested with someone you just met. You chatted with a lot of persons in the group, etc. but no one had your interest pointed directly at them, thatā€™s a big something. You kinda felt like youā€™re opening too fast for him too, and you had no clue if thatā€™s ok. You cover your eyes with hands, overthinking your situation with unnamed male. When your thoughts started to be not too pleasant you heard your communicator's sound going off. As fast as you pushed yourself back, you were that fast in front of your PC.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: i have a break now.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i'm sorry [nick], I am not ignoring you on purpose.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i enjoy talking to you too, don't ever think oterwideĀ  TheUnforgiven01: otherwise* TheUnforgiven01: we'll talk about that later.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: now, how are you? i hope i didn't made you sad.Ā  [nick]: No, no! It's OK! I understand you have a real life too, I assume a real life friends too. That's normal, that's okay.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i like you. i can consider you as my friend, but.Ā  [nick]: But?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: but you should not consider me as yours.Ā  [nick]: What t? Why?/?? / TheUnforgiven01: my break's over, i gtg. i'll catch you later.Ā  [nick]: Okay, later!Ā 
Your hands twitched uncontrollably after that weird message. What did he mean? You're his friend but he's not yours? It kinda worried you, but you went to do your stuff until he has time to talk. Maybe it sounds clichĆ© but you wait impatiently until he starts a chat with you and you know each other for only two weeks.Ā 
It made you worry about your friend. Maybe he has some troubles you don't know about for sure? You only had to hope it's not gang involved. You were sure to later tell a few words to him.Ā 
You ate out with one of your friends, just to eat, chill around. As you weren't sure what to do generally about "unforgiven situation", you decided to ask her: Ā - Uh,Ā  it's kinda awkward, but can I ask you for advice? -Ā  you ask.Ā  Ā - Oh of course! What's going inside of your pretty little head?Ā  Ā - So I met someone on my group- Ā - Nerd group? -Ā  she interrupted.Ā  Ā - Yeah, that one. -Ā  you admitted with defeat. Honestly, no matter what you say, she still keeps on going with nerd club. -Ā  And there was that guy, he started arguing with me. Later we apologized to each other and now we're chatting for two weeks everyday, but about how much do we write depends if he's free or not. Today he said something odd, have a look.Ā 
You moved your phone so your friend can see mysterious message from Unforgiven. She sighed and then looked at you with that pity look of hers.Ā  Ā - What?Ā  Ā - Honey, swettieā€¦ you have two options. One: he's really trying to make you think of him. Two: he really means it. You should start off with "I'm worried about you!" and tell him how you really feel.Ā  Ā - Okay. Okayā€¦ I just. I don't know what's going on with him.Ā  Ā - Why are you so moved of that? You know each other for only two weeks. Are youā€¦ Crushing on him?!?!Ā  Ā - WHAT? Nonononono, you got that wrong, I just want to get to know him! That's all, really!Ā  Ā - Uh-huh! When he's free today, you get him, tiger! Just won't get into any trouble, sweetheart.Ā 
You sighed, then smiled at her, closing your eyes in satisfaction.Ā  You're a lot calmer now.Ā  "Thank you, [friends name].ā€ You said, until you both went back on chatting about everything.Ā 
And when you were back? You dressed yourself to home wearing, sat down comfortably on the couch and checked your phone. Unforgiven actually wrote to you first! And a lot.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: hey. TheUnforgiven01: sorry I had to go all of sudden, work stuff, had shorter break.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i donā€™t want you to think i don't want to get to know you, i do.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: it's just hard for me, ā€˜n stuff.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: we'll get to it, please give me some time.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: you'll know everything about me in no time, just give me some and we'll be friends, true ones.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: if you'd want to, ofc.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: hit me up when you're back from your little date.Ā 
You gave into every single message a lot of focus. You weren't sure what to say at first, but decided to just go for it.Ā 
[nick]: It's OK! I was worried about you, but if you say I'll get to know all the things about you in time, I'll go with it! But remember this one thing: I consider you as my friend, no matter what. We'll get through your insecurities and secrets, I'll be patiently waiting!Ā 
[nick]: And it was NOT a DATE. I was out with my friend!! >:( TheUnforgiven01: yeah, sure, you playa. TheUnforgiven01: better be good.Ā  [nick]: Very funny!Ā  TheUnforgiven01: for me it is.Ā  [nick]: Aren't you tired after work? You don't want to sleep?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i thought you genuinely missed me, buy you want me out right now.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: now i'm sad.Ā  [nick]: It's not like that! I'm just worried about you, goofball.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: sure, explain yourself even more. TheUnforgiven01: only guilty explain themselves.Ā  [nick]: Come on!! D: TheUnforgiven01: i can chat for a bit and then go.Ā 
You chatted and chatted, slowly getting to know his character, but he still remained as Unforgiven, unnamed boy you slowly, but in agony, fell for. It's been three months from your first encounter.Ā 
You wonder how are you going to ask him about a next step in your friendship. It is, indeed, hard. Good question is why are you the first to ask? It almost hurt imagining yourself with blank space, nor even voice known to begin with. You fell hard for dude you only know behind Unforgiven, and wanted to hear his voice. You were ready for him to decline, but you won't know without trying.Ā 
He said he'll be back pretty late today, and he may not write, but he left you a warning pretty early in the morning. You weren't sure why did he woke up so early, but you just shrugged it, saying that he must be in some other time zone. You didn't even knew where he is from, this man is a big mystery for you.
You waited for him to come back in your bed, before sleeping.Ā  You had to ask that question now or never, you know if you'll put it for tomorrow you want do that anytime soon. It has to be done. It was 2am now and your eyelids were getting heavy. Reading books or literally anything wasn't helping at all, and when your body demands rest. You almost drifted to sleep, but then
Ding!Ā 
It was him, before sleep you assumed. No matter what you did you always wrote to each other, even stupid "goodnight for later, I'm going to sleep now, be sure to rest enough." was there.Ā 
Your eyes were wide open and you moved your hand to the phone way too fast as for almost sleeping person.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: hey.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i'm aftwr work TheUnforgiven01: i am really tires ya kno TheUnforgiven01: fuck typos in lsrticilarĀ  [nick]: Particular?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: you're not asleep yet? damnĀ  [nick]: I was kinda waiting for you, you know?Ā  TheUnforgiven01: oh really? what's the occasion? [nick]: It'sā€¦ I have a question for you.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: aight, give me your shot.Ā  [nick]: Would you like toā€¦ agh it's stupid.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: no, go ahead.Ā  [nick]: We write with each other for a while now and I was wondering ifā€¦Ā  [nick]: If you'd like to make a phone call, maybe? Or, voice call, anything really? No personal questions, just five minute chatting about anything. Promise?Ā 
Yasuo hesitated for a longer bit. Should he agree? He don't use his voice in his recordings, so maybe he should? He treats this person like someone close, so why should he avoid them like a plague? He saw little mark above chat window which suggested you furiously were typing. He sighed, smiling softly to his phone's screen.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: it's alright,don't worry.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: we can chat a bit.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: we can call here, you know. for you to avoid any additional payment.Ā 
You sigh with relief. Okay, he did agree. What now?? Holy shit. You were more than nervous. You didn't saw that coming and because of all of this you forgot to answer him. You almost jumped when you got another message.Ā 
TheUnforgiven01: i'll call first, since i see you're nervous.Ā  TheUnforgiven01: i'll hit you up in 5 min. answer me by then.Ā 
It maybe was stupid, but you checked yourself in the mirror, almost like before date. You fixed your hair, checked if nothing was stuck between your teeth, wash your face, and your time slipped between your fingers, your phone was ringing with typical for your communicator song. You jumped, then panicked, then jumped beside your phone and slowly answered your call before it ended sending a signal.
- H...hello? - your voice croaked out of nervousness. You mentally slapped your forehead, classical facepalm. - Hi. - you heard calm voice with that tune of tiredness, that little growl at the end. His voice was soft, warm, pleasant. You smiled right away. - Damn, you sound so chilled out while I am...wow. I am a blushing mess right now, I wanted this but donā€™t know what to say to you! Like, wow!Ā Ā  - Maybe start with how was your day? Iā€™d love to hear that. - that was just an excuse, but you didnā€™t knew that.Ā  - Oh...kay. It was fine. Boring, to be honest. Woke up, drank [tea/coffee/hot chocolate] from this True Damage cup I once told you about, went out, made my boring everyday routine, was thinking how I should ask you about talking, then went back home, bored my ass off on some documentaries and here we are, talking!Ā  - Sounds fun. - he commented shortly. Even if it might sound like he doesnā€™t care, you understood that he just was like that. That stupid feeling.Ā  - Maybe youā€™ll tell me something you did today? - Something Iā€™d love to do, but I must avoid that. Not today, [nick]. - Call me [y/n], okay? Thatā€™s my real name. You donā€™t have to tell me yours! Iā€™d like you to call me [y/n] though. - Thatā€™s a nice name. Like the sound of it. - his goddamn voice will be the end of yours. You sighed loudly with this goofy smile. - Thank you so much. So, if not the day, tell me something you actually can share. - I was thinking about you today. - he shot these words right through your heart.Ā  - O-Oh? Re-really? - you stuttered, hating yourself for that.Ā  - Heheh, yeah. - he chuckled, making you forget about hating your stutter since it made him laugh in this tone. This goddamn tone. - Was thinking if you were alright. And because your pathetic ass was distracting me from work, my boss forced me to go on break! Used it to smoke, but none then less, thanks. - Hey, your bad for wandering off in work! And quit smoking, dumbass! - you scolded him, ending this ā€œā€very seriousā€ā€ scold with a laugh, which Yasuo answered with louder, honest laugh. You were all red by now. - God, itā€™s good talking to you. Letā€™s do that more often. Not every day, but...you know. More often. - O-okay. Okay, sure. Cool. - you answered,trying to kill this little squeal in your throat. - Iā€™ll have to go to sleep, [y/n]. Sleep well, ok? - No promise, but you have a rest. Thank you, again. For agreeing. - Heh. No problem, I am glad I did agree too. Sleep tight. - another chuckle, then hanging up sound.
Well, what can I say. This was the most emotion-forcing call you ever had. He wished you good night, you had trouble falling asleep.Ā 
Generally speaking, you had a talk like that once in three days. The big day of concert was coming, so you decided to ask Unforgiven if he is interested in coming too. Youā€™re searching for a chance of meeting him in real life.Ā 
Yasuo expected from incoming call anything but question what was awaiting him. He was having a flight with a band to [townā€™s name] in next three days, so he had to tell you he canā€™t really talk as you both always do. When he heard a communicatorā€™s song, he pressed answer button right away, smiling to his phone like you could see heā€™s happy to see you. - Hewwo? - he answered in very forced squeaky voice, which made you erupt with laughter. - Hey, goofball. How was your day? - Lazy. Was distracted a lot, I was waiting for out call before sleep. So, whatā€™s new? - Today was okayā€™ish, you know? Iā€™m not even that tired. Maybe being excited makes me go cray-cray.Ā  - Psh, good. - he looked at himself in the mirror, seeing how wide his smile was. Almost concerning.Ā  - Hey, dude? - Hm?Ā  - Are you...by any chance, going to see True Damage in [Townā€™s name]? I never asked you about your music taste but I was wondering. Wondering that if youā€™d be here...maybe weā€™ll meet? ā€˜Cuz, you know. Iā€™ll be here.Ā  - I- - his voice was stuck in his throat. Oh. Shit. Fuckfuckfuck. Not good. What now?Ā  -...you? Are you okay?Ā  - Ahm- yes, itā€™s just that. Youā€™re...hella right. I will be there.Ā  - OH REALLY? - you asked unecessarly too loud, then cleared your throat. - A-and...youā€™d like to meet?Ā  - Uhhhā€¦ - fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck - Ā Yeah. Sure. Iā€™d love to finally see you. Can you imagine this feeling? We donā€™t know how we look, so finding each other would be insane, but can you imagine the result?Ā  - Me, asking some random dudes ā€œHey, are you Unforgiven?ā€ ? No, letā€™s send each other selfies, maybe? - Nah, Iā€™d love to see you embarrass yourself. - HEY!Ā  - Okay, okay. I promise weā€™ll find each other. I wonā€™t go home until we do. - Promise you wonā€™t leave me out? - Promise.Ā  - Thank you. Iā€™ll go to sleep, so weā€™ll catch up later, ok? By- he cut you out. - Wait, [y/n]. I have to tell you something real quick.Ā  - Yeah? - you pulled your phone back to ear. - I wonā€™t be too available around these days. But at the day of concert Iā€™ll call you in the morning. I wonā€™t be in any reach of connection, I hope you understand. - Uh..okay. Thank you for telling me. Good night, sleep tight. - ā€˜Night.Ā 
You hung up. Itā€™s alright, itā€™s ok. Nothing to sweat. Youā€™ll only meet your crush in three days only.Ā 
OKAY NEVERMIND IT IS AMAZING. You - thankfully - fell asleep pretty fastly.Ā 
To be fair, these three days? Were going through slow in agonizing way, but when the day of concert hit up, your heart was racing since you woke up. You had that five minute talk with Unforgiven, as he promised, assuring you that he is going to be there for sure. After you hung up, you started preparing yourself! You wore your best clothes, made sure you look stunning but not too overrated and just dived into it! You gladly told your friend youā€™re meeting your crush, informing her with that sheā€™s not forced to go see True Damage with you anymore. She was more of Pentakill person, and it was alright. She wanted to go along since she knew how ā€œun-funnyā€ would it be without her, but you knew her real motive was you not feeling alone. So when she acknowledged that youā€™re not going to be alone, she said sheā€™s glad she doesnā€™t have to listen to Ekko and Qiyanaā€™s rapping. Well, good noone is forced.
At first,you wanted to find Unforgiven right away, but gave up and focused on music experience. You wanted to be there beside him, but well, maybe he lost connection again and couldnā€™t hit you up. And you had hell of a fun in there! But somewhere deep inside you were worried that he just tricked you and will never show up or tell you where he is exactly.Ā 
True Damageā€™s crew said final goodbyes and after some stumbles, it was quiet on stage. Everyone kept cheering or talking, sometimes screaming unecessarly. Still, not a single sight of Unforgiven. Well, at least you got to know what this long haired guy was doing in the crew. Epic T-pose and manipulated music with this sword looking thingy. Amazing effects. You decided to find yourself sitting place somewhere, staring at your phone screen. No message, no missed calls, not anything. It made you sad, thatā€™s true, but maybe heā€™ll catch up? You waited. And waited.
And waited.
And the more you waited, the more you felt tears getting into your eyes. You were ready to burst into sobbing mess, but then your phone rang. This stupid communicator song. You answered up right away with little sniffā€ - Where the hell are you? You said that- - I know, [y/n]. I am here, let me instruct you where I am right now. Where are you? - You should be one searching for me, you know? I almost thought you werenā€™t coming, whatā€™s up with that? - you unintentionally raised your voice, letting out a sob meanwhile that. Yasuo felt so bad now. - Listen...Iā€™ll tell you everything. Everything will be explained when youā€™ll see me. I hope youā€™ll forgive me. If not, itā€™ll be this ā€œofficial goodbyeā€ moment, can you trust me this one last time? - ...fuck. Fuck, okay. I am on the bench close to food truck. You? - Stand up then, go to the barriers understage.Ā  - Understageā€¦? Alrigt, wh-atever you say.
You blindly went in there, trusting this man ā€œfor the last timeā€, as he said. Youā€™d give him the last chance heā€™s begging for. You stood here like an idiot, alone with stages lights shining on your face. No one in sight. - I hope youā€™re not jokingā€¦ - How would I know where should you go then? - Point...itā€™s just that- - Shh. Itā€™s ok. You head to the left now if youā€™re facing the stage. Tell me when youā€™re done. - ā€¦ doneā€¦? - Okay. now open this little metal gate and get through. - Wha-what?? Why would I? Securities will kick me out if they find out! - They wonā€™t. Itā€™s ok.Ā  -Youā€™re...one of the security guards, right?Ā  - Information when you get there. come on in.Ā  - You were so anxious about this situation. It just seems sketchy. He never revealed any information about him, maybe spread some lies you believed in. Who was this dude now? Was everything you knew a lie? - And? I donā€™t see anyone. - Are you wearing [your fav. hoodie/flannel/whatever you want it to be!]?Ā  - U-uh? Yeah, and youā€™reā€¦? - Turn around, goof. I am standing right there. - ā€¦ - you felt your heart stop, you werenā€™t able to breathe. You slowly turned around to see noone else than this mysterious japanese DJ you had a chance to see on stage. What- how- that were questions which were going almost like on loop in your head. - Stunned, huh? - he commented into the phone, then took it off of his face and ended call. It confirmed that it was him too - at the same time his phone went dark after single tap, your call ended.Ā 
You didnā€™t even got to give out bigger reaction. You just met him! Screw that heā€™s popular and hid his identity from you! For now. You ran into his arms and squeezed him, now sobbing like mad.Ā 
- You FUCKER! You couldā€™ve said ANYTHING! All these secrets, what for! I kinda understand but- FUCK! - you shouted into his shoulder while he squeezed you in almost bone crushing hug. - Iā€™m sorry, ok? - and it was his voice, sounded almost the same. Holy shit. - Iā€™m so, so sorry, [y/n]. But at least I can be honest? - Then please be. Tell me everything you wanted to say. - Itā€™ll be long, trust me, but well. Here goes nothing. - he put his hand on your cheek and clears your face from those tears you shed because of him. - I...wanted to tell you my name after like two weeks. I got worried youā€™ll find out after we talk some, so I did avoid personal information. While I was at it, I never wanted to lie. About my work and my day. I just lied at the beginning, then regret it deeply, but felt like I couldnā€™t take that back. [y/n]- fuck- I just- I didnā€™t wanted to be treated differently. I am popular and most people stop seeing a human in me because Iā€™m a celebrity! It hurt me to avoid you getting to know me - heck, it hurt me to see you avoiding asking me about personal stuff because you understood. I appreciated it, but it hurt you had to remain silent while you were curious as hell, I assume. You wanted to hear me out, treated me like I am just like you, reached out to me. I grew on that, I wantā€¦ I don't want to lose you. Please, forgive me.Ā  - Iā€¦ it'sā€¦ it's okay. I should call youā€¦Ā  - Yasuo. It's Yasuo, [y/n].Ā  - I'll get to know you all over, just be honest with me.Ā  You're still human and I want to be close to you. Iā€¦ ah. I'll just let it out pleasedon'thateme. Iā€¦ fell for you. Hard. You were a bug mystery for me but still wanted to be around me. I kept still since you're pretty important to me. Thank you for being there by this 6 months, let's continue whatever we have between each other. Please.Ā 
ā€¦Ā 
Yasuo moved his mask down to capture your face between his hands and kissed you, it seemed like a rough start, but kiss was soft, magical. You just smoothed, nibbling on your lips. Yasuo was now thanking you a lot, which you only replied with weak laughs and pats on his back. He promised he'll keep you as close as he can.Ā 
Yasuo had to continue his tour around the world with True Damage, but promised he'll take a lot of day off so he can work up lost time with you. It's been a month and you wait for him almost like wife waiting for her husband's return after military duty.Ā 
Yasuo took two weeks off, but if he'll need more -Ā  it'll be for you to decide. You were spending today inside since it was raining. It was dark outside already, the only source of light was candles in living room. Yasuo was holding you close to himself, moving side to side, swaying gently, adoring your every inch of face. - Lately I found this song on youtube, it was originally from vocaloid.it kind off remind me of us.Ā  - Vocaloid song? You know true meaning of lyrics for sure, tell me about it then!Ā  - I can sing a part of it for you, if you'd want to?Ā  - You can sing?Ā  - Of course! I just don't use it for my songs. Everyone else sing much better, my voice is tooā€¦Ā  - Too sexy for the world?Ā  - Hahaha, maybe! Want to check out for sure? I'll sing in English for you.Ā  - Sheesh, what a nerd. Okay, give me your best shot.Ā 
Yasuo took a deep breath in, and made sure before he starts to sing he looks into your eyes. He started like he was unsure, but with time he sang wholeheartedly.Ā 
"Though both of us will die one day
Though this life is useless anyway
When you're here by my side, you make me feel like it'll be okay
And yet we laughed despite it all
At this life which has no meaning at all
Two lonely and broken souls leaning on each other's sides
I'm glad that you're you, that I'm me, and for us two
I'm kinda glad that you're evil too"
While he was pouring his emotion on you, you felt your chest clench and tear up after intensity of his voice, he gave it out truly like he meant it.Ā  You saw he wasn't done, so you tried to remain calm.Ā 
"When the day starts anew, hope I spend it with you-"Ā 
You felt your cheeks burn with your tears pouring down whole you smiled widely at him. He was singing loudly, forgetting about embarrassment.Ā 
"I'm glad that I fell in love with you."
From today, this song made by PinnocchioP was more than important for both of you. It felt like it was especially made for you, and you both loved it.Ā

Beyond My Pants and Into My Mind (An Aoyama x Everyone Concept)
You know what Iā€™m tired of? Iā€™m tired of reading the same awesome-ass fics revolving solely around Bakugou and Deku. So yā€™know what? Iā€™m gonna make one revolving solely around twinkling boi because why not? >u>Ā

Deku asks Aoyama about the blog in private. (Shouji overhears)
ā€œHey, how long do you plan on keeping this running? Arenā€™t you afraid you might be hurting your chances of positive press when becoming a pro hero?ā€

Next day, Bakuhoe lowkey claiming croissant. Gets aggressive with Kouda. Kouda backs off and stops talking to frenchboi for a while. Poor thingā€¦
Aoyama faces his fears and confronts bakuhoe for being a bakubitch.
Bakubitch is offended. Threatens to blow up frenchboi but Iida intervenes.
ā€œThis is none of your fucking business!ā€
Fight almost breaks out, but Aizawa intervenes. All three of them get suspended.
Iida contacts Aoyama during suspension. Asks what his relationship is between him and Bakugou.
Admits theyā€™ve banged more than a few times. Accidently slips that theyā€™ve spoken online beforehand.
ā€œSo, youā€™re V?ā€
ā€œOui.ā€
ā€œAHA! I knew it!ā€
ā€œDonā€™t tell anyone, okay?ā€
ā€œYour secret is safe with me, Aoyama-san!ā€
Iidaā€™s secretly conflicted that he sent a dick pic and fapped to Aoyama, ngl.

Bakugou logs off for the night.
Insert convo from Tsuyu.

ā€œWellllllllllā€¦.ā€
Meets up with Tsuyu. Reveals that its spring and this is the time when her bodyā€™s ready to mate.Ā Knew that Aoyama was an easy target. Take that how you will.
Oh yeah, frogs get busy in the spring.
Has sex.
+1 new fuckbuddy

Declines offer for another Bakusquad orgy and gives the blog a rest for a while.
1-A is being investigated now. Tailman, Sugar Rush, Mineta, and Croissant are suspects.
Insert convo from Ojiro.
ā€œHey dude, I know this blog means a lot to you, but if you can show up in person and get these guys off our backs thatā€™d mean a lot to us. Thanks~ā€
Damnā€¦ thatā€™s one person that cannot know about his identity. Tells him heā€™s not in the country.
Is interested in Ojiroā€™s peen ngl. He got that martial artist bod afterall.
Coaxes tailboy into a conversation. Tailboyā€¦ aint really with the gay shit. Is a lot like Todoroki, but doesnā€™t even try to talk dirty. Jeez, is he really all that straight? 0/10
Sends a tasteful nude. Tries to get him to at least send his abs. Something.
ā€œFine.ā€ Whatever it takes to get the staff from checking his internet history.
Send a pic of his torso, his pants are kinda low. OOF. DAT V LINE.
Talks a little bit more, then logs off.
Depression starts to settle in. His classmates are noticing him, but not for the right reasons. Deku notices. Iida notices. Uraraka notices. Tokoyami grows suspicious from his non-attentionwhoring ways.
Tokoyami approaches Aoyama for the first time.
Oh god, his palms are sweaty.
Knees weak, arms heavyā€¦ Momā€™s spaghetti.
ā€œAre you alright?ā€
ā€œOui, Iā€™m okay.
ā€œAre you sure? You donā€™t seem like yourself. I am a bit concerned.ā€
Aoyama comes clean. Tokoyami is surprised, but isnā€™t upset.
Spends the day comforting Aoyama. Even brings by moshi icecream. Very wholesome. Nothing flirty or anything, just bro stuff.
Toko compliments Aoyama on his ability to talk to people and suggests applying that offline as well- heā€™d be far more liked that way.
Frenchboi reveals that he initially made a regular blog to make friends because he often felt lonely at Yuuei but resorted to sex because of the lack of attention. Deku is his only legitimate friend here.
ā€œThen letā€™s be friends as well.ā€
Aoyama cries. Hard. Very emotional moment.
He accepts it.
Aoyama writes on his blog that heā€™s not gonna be too active. People arenā€™t very happy, but they accept.
The folks in the know ask about his post last night. Keeps it cute and says heā€™s gonna take it easy for a bit. Deku and Toko smiles.
The staff of investigation notices the post and begins narrowing down the suspects.
Bakugou pulls Aoyama aside. Heā€™s calm and collected- asks him if heā€™s okay.
Frenchboi nods, Bakuboi finally asks him on a date. He hesitantly accepts. Not sure why heā€™s so fixated on him, but cool I guess.
(Insert Bakusquad cheesing in the background)
Kouda summons the courage to talk to Aoyama again and apologizes for leaving him hanging. Frenchboi forgives him and accepts his friendship.
+1 Friendship
DATE WITH BAKUGOU. Indoor rock climbing! How cool is that!? Frenchboi is scared shitless, but Explosionboi knows what heā€™s doing. Bakugou is mainly quiet the entire time but is pretty sweet in gaining Frenchboiā€™s trust with the harnesses. Deep conversation reveals that Bakugou doesnā€™t have many friends either. Apologizes for being so pushy and inconsiderate. Admits he doesnā€™t handle his emotions well. Aoyama reveals personal info about his blog and his loneliness.
ā€œYouā€™re a fucking weirdo tbh, but you have a lot of balls.ā€
His way of complimenting him, I guess? Also advises him to stop being so fucking slutty before his ass becomes Stargateā€¦ or else.
Ooh, the irony.
Doesnā€™t sleep together, sweet peck on the forehead tho.
Tokoyami and Deku checks up on him.
Insert messages from Bakusquad telling him how much Bakugou enjoyed today. Also thanks Aoyama for being a friend through V.
Bakuboi probs told them about his dilemma, that little shit. He still felt loved nonetheless. Very wholesome.
Frenchboi comes into class the next day andā€¦ actually gets greeted? He tears up.
Bakugou calls him a faggot.
Gets called into the office after school.
Itā€™s time.
They question him about the blog and its contents.
He comes clean.
Aizawa wants to expel the shit out of him but he technically did nothing wrong, so he stays.
Firmly asks him to delete the blog. Gets reprimanded for running a damn sex blog while training to be a public defender.
They agree to keep it under wraps, but Aizawa orders Aoyama to apologize to the class.
He does.
Thereā€™s a mixture of disgust, shock, and wonder.
The end.
Ā TL;DR: tfw the blog that you think is singlehandedly tearing down your school is just the creation of a lonely 16-year old.

Just, void screaming. Ignore
Is this a pity party? Honestly. Maybe. Which I hate even further but fuck man, Iā€™ve got no one to talk to but need to feel like Iā€™m talking to SOMEONE. This is just bitching and ranting and woe is me bullshit. Sorry; just figured Tumblr was the spot to do it. Easy to be lost to the void while somehow feeling public enough that I can convince myself it matters.
Not that I expect anyone to still be reading, as this really is just a stranger here throwing a fit, but Iā€™d like to say I already am going to therapy.
That out of the way..
Holy. FUCK.
Iā€™m trying so god damned hard to work on myself. To get better. Get over shit and improve and grow as a person and shits always shoving me back. I still keepnfuckin going but man some days itā€™s just fucking overwhelming and you spiral down. I hate how often Iā€™m spiraling back down.
I hate how alone I feel even with a wonderful wife. She and I talk. None of this convo is something we havenā€™t talked about but I also donā€™t want to just dump my constant woes on the woman I love. To the only person who loves me without any strings or conditions or whatever. I adore her. But god are we both lonely. I worry strongly itā€™s partly my fault. I think often; I canā€™t help it but I really am working on it. But god damn. My parents were kinda warped and conditional with their affections for me.
Only once I got a little older did my mother really bother, since I was no longer a burden but could be of use. Especially once she had her own kids. Now when I do get graced with any kind of greeting itā€™s for a mix of things. Typically I means sheā€™s about to hit my father up for money; which means sheā€™s gotta make sure she and I are cool so that cash still keeps coming. Other times itā€™s cuz she wants that mother daughter bond thing we absolutely do not have and wants to pretend itā€™s there. Nearly every call we speak her traumas of the past get brought up.
And fuck I feel really bad that happened to you mom, I see how itā€™s really wrecked your life up even now and Iā€™ve offered the best advice I can, Iā€™ve offered the kinda words, the supporting words, done what I can to my own best ability. Even if itā€™s always just letting you speak about the rapes of your past that I donā€™t want to hear about at all. I know that sounds selfish but Iā€™ve heard it a lot and I know they still bother you so much and I know I am not the person whose gonna help you work through those. Im just.. not.
I hate when she cries about how her life was ruined from the few years she was together with my father; how his abuse and manipulations to this day affect all these things. How she reminds me and talks about them in detail nearly ever call as if this is news? Woman, I grew up ALONE with him. Iā€™m fuckin aware what heā€™s like and how that fucks you up, thanks.
Itā€™s some kind of fucked up bonding to her. Our last call, with my grandmother in the hospital and I having FaceTimed to get updates and say hi to my grandmother (I live in another country than them) she loudly detailed her miserable life with my father in front of the nurses as she reminded me how sheā€™d have to hide us in closets in the dark to calm and feed me as heā€™d snap at any noise. How heā€™d hurt her. How she took us out of that home from him before she decided it was more important I had my father in my life since hers never really was. How she did what she could but there was no winning custody from my father when it came down to it.
Iā€™m so use to hearing two different stories from both my parents as they paint the other as bad and I remember more than I want to. I silently listen and mumble the appropriate words. But I know my mother is either in denial or magically forgotten her own shit just like my father has his own shit.
While he slept around and wasnā€™t home for days and shit she would lock herself in her room. Or sheā€™d go out dressed up to the bars and shit and leave me locked in that room. Sometimes for a couple DAYS. I KNOW this.
It was just worse when they were both home though. God. The screaming and breaking of shit. I still can remember trying to clean snotty tears and blood off my mothers face as I apologized for being bad and making dad mad after he had picked her up by the throat and threw her through our crappy american drywall walls.
I hate how this came up in convo. I hate how she mentioned how she wasnā€™t sure if my father ever touched me; sexually. Like hers did to her before he fucked off forever. I also hate how much she kept trying to bring up stuff and cases where she thinks it mightā€™ve been possible, as if I needed that to be a thing on top of the other shit. She kept talking about it as if she WANTED it to be true. For us to have another fucking thing to relate to each other. Which. HOLY fuck woman. I called to say hi to my possibly dying grandmother and get info on THAT. Not for any of this.
Honestly. I donā€™t know. I donā€™t know if dad did that shit. If so, thatā€™s a really sealed tight fucking memory. Iā€™m currently focusing on the, what my therapist flat out calls torture, he put me through. My very own Mr Jeckel and Mr Hyde. Me Perfect Mr Nightmare. At the flip of a switch back and fucking forth. Spoiled and tortured.
I had my first breakdown that I can recall at age 5. I barely remember that trailer but fuck I remember enough. I remember a solid week of constantly getting the leather belt and screamed at by that marine. I didnā€™t immediately pick up my toys. I was struggling to tie my shoes. I didnā€™t answer right away. I made a mess with my food. I almost burnt our soup I was supposed to be managing on the stove: I had my own stool and all. I just felt.. overwhelmed. I told a childish lie, I donā€™t remember the lie but he utterly lost it. Lying remains the very worst possible offense to my father. What was an attempt to avoid more beating and screaming turned into a long nightmare.
I donā€™t remember those walls. But I remember his face. I remember being sat on the counter, as he demanded I look him in the eyes when I was talking to him or being screamed at. I remember him visibly shaking, him being so so red. The veins popping out of his forehead and neck. The muscles on his arms in the shirts he always had to cut just to fit those arms through. I could draw that glare as he always held it close to mine to make sure I couldnā€™t and didnā€™t focus elsewhere. His interrogating. I know I thought I had caught a break when that landline started ringing. Iā€™ve no idea who it was who called.
My dads teeth were gritted as he responded curtly to the person on the phone who wasnā€™t getting the hint he didnā€™t want to talk. And I remember, sitting so high up on that counter, alone with this man, knowing he was about to hang up and no one was gonna stop him, that I was never gonna get this right, that I just. Felt some hopeless I started laughing. I saw the look he shot me and I swear the memory still makes my stomach sink every ducking time. And I was crying cuz I couldnā€™t stop laughing. He hung up quick and demanded to know what I thought was funny. That did I think lying was funny? Of course I didnā€™t and my ā€˜I donā€™t knowā€™ responses never ever were received well. I just. I couldnā€™t stop laughing.
God Iā€™m glad I donā€™t remember the rest but I do know he fixed that laughing problem pretty quick. I only remember how much I hurt.
I have so many things to say, so many years of even more shit; the things you just learn to survive. How you learn to not play strong with a man whose strong enough to make it hurt if he suspects it isnā€™t. You learn he wants to hear you scream and cry. But to a certain degree; when I got to that barely breathing ugly crying with pouring snot sniffling stage he got grossed out and threatened heā€™d give me a real reason to cry if I didnā€™t cut that shit out. Leaning over a surface so it doesnā€™t matter if your legs give out as your thereā€™d bare assed to a folded braided leather belt being brought down amidst yelling was only part of that shit.
Once the beating was done I was orders where I was to stand or sit waiting for him to call me into his office. This could sometimes be a few hours. And god forbid I moved; he moves so silently, occasionally checking to make sure I was ā€˜reflecting on what I did wrong.ā€™ Assuming I didnā€™t fuck that up it would be time for a new round of mixed levels of yelling. A foot or two from his face heā€™d want me to inform him what I did wrong, that I didnā€™t want to be miserable and anything like my mother, that itā€™s hard enough on him when Iā€™m not doing my job and heā€™s doing his. (My job being the house and my grades). Then it was time for me to explain how Iā€™d avoid doing what I did wrong again, and then I was to pick an appropriate punishment.
Takin away my time to tv, my PlayStation, going outside or having friends over. This was its own test; if I was too light on the punishment he thought my offense deserved Iā€™d get screamed at and beat there by hands of his like iron and sent back to my room to wait to further reflect with a 50-50 chance of him either calling me into his room to whip me or to give me a second chance with a worse longer punishment chosen by me for the now double offense.
I hate how awkward I am with gifts. I know itā€™s partly dads fault. Heā€™d buy me all kinds of things all the time. I didnā€™t really ever ask. Not to the sheer amount he would go out and get and give stuff. I was to be appropriately thankful. But of course, if I messed up with having not finished all the chores (and the right way) or not responding to him quick enough, watching cartoons before I finished my homework, you name it, my new stuff often got broken in front of me. Snap and crushed and thrown and shattered as he screamed over me as I was also yelled at to pick that shit up. And fast.
So yeah mom. Iā€™m sorry he ruined holidays and gifts for you. Iā€™m honestly sorry you still think about your time with him and that it hurts you. But youā€™re talking to the wrong person. Iā€™m aware what itā€™s like, and I know you know. You want to relate on that but not really hear much from me except validation to how much itā€™s fucked you up.
I wake from the dead of sleep when a door slams. I didnā€™t even wake when I was asleep in a carcrash, thatā€™s how heavy I sleep, you hear? And this door thing isnā€™t new but it got revamped by an event when I was just out of highschool. We built a home in Texas and we had a lot of space. I just happened to met and know and bond with folks in shitty situations and offered them a place to live until they got on their feet. One of the girls begged for her motherā€™s dog to stay with us. Mind you she never took care of this dog. My other roommates and I did. I even built the lady a doghouse as well as buying a big water thing for outside since itā€™s TEXAS.
But one weekend I was dog sitting for a friend who was going out of town for a horse show she was part of. Big lanky playful pup. He wasnā€™t hurting the old little dog but he did keep trying to get her to play. The girl didnā€™t like that and kept separating them. I told her to not move that dog away from the shelter and water, itā€™s summer in Texas. I had been working a double shift (16hrs) and was fucning exhaushsted and just crashed on my bed with one of my friends. (I had a big bed. Often shared with a handful of people). Well, apparently that girl moved that dog far away from hers, leaving the poor thing chained up to a single tree, no shelter, no water, and he was crying. My father stormed into the basement madder than fucking hell.
He doesnā€™t tolerate animal abuse. I was barely an hour into sleep, unaware of the situation, when he grabs and yanks me by the ankle, it startled awake my fried next to me, as he screamed at me. I thought he was going to throw me against the wall. I was still not fully awake to process what he was screaming at me for. Which enraged him more. I figured out what it was and quickly moved the dog back to the shelter and water and reported to my still super pissed off father. I got pretty upset with that one roommate; it ended up being one of the many many things that I had her move out over. Iā€™m not my father, even if angry at the other shit she had pulled, I packed her stuff and helped load it into her car as she went to live somewhere else. No matter how bad it got between me and some of my temporary roommates, I always packed their stuff and helped loaded it away.
But being jarred awake and fearing instantly for my life as I was face to face with my fathers rage has me still on alert with slamming doors.
And right now? Living with my wifeā€™s parents and aunt, itā€™s becoming a slight problem. Our nephew spends most of his time here than he does at his own home. Since COVID heā€™s been to his own home less than a week in total. And his grandparents and great aunt are 100% enablers of really shitty behavior. They just want quiet so they left him have whatever he wants no matter what. Anytime my wife and I try to law down rules and enforce them he screamed and slammed shit, telling everyone to fuck off and how he hates them, loudest screaming he can manage, more slaming more screaming, and this can go on for an hour or more.
And the ā€˜adultsā€™ yell at US and tell us off in front of the kid. Heā€™s aware he will get what he wants. If he doesnā€™t want to go to school, he doesnā€™t go. This kid spent well than more days home than at school. Just cuz he didnā€™t feel like it and wanted to play video games. He watches stupid shit on Instagram and tilt ol and your Uber influencer folks and sees all this named brand shit and insists he HAS to have that shit. That shit that costs enough money to make your eyes buldge for a stupid crappy hoodie or his, no joke, 100th pair of shoes or newest PC assessory or whatever.
His mother time to time borrows money she doesnā€™t always pay back, cuz she and her boyfriend struggle with bills or feeding their own cats cuz she never tells this kid no since he throws a bitch fit. Itā€™s wearing so fucking thin on us. Itā€™s hard to dote and love on our nephew when heā€™s so shitty to his family. He refuses to go to therapy and no one makes him go. He literally less than a YEAR ago finally started wiping his own ASS, and heā€™s 11.
Iā€™ve been warning him a lot lately to not have his laptop at the table cuz thereā€™s a bunch of folks at the table with plates and bowls and multiple glasses of water, pitchers of water, and heā€™s gonna be really upset if he ruins his computer. He can just use his phone. Itā€™s not like he stays at the table that long as it is. Heā€™s been super bitchy about it but Iā€™ve been very stern on it the last few days. Well, today he was fucking around with something with the water and got it on his phone. There were no paper towels.
So he threw an horrid fucking fit. Lost his entire fucking mind. As my wife and I are trying to reason with him and teach him to not react like this when things happen like that and to instead ask for help or thibk, what else can I use, like the kitchen towel for example, everyoneā€™s enabling his tantrum and coddling it and telling us to hush up. We are trying to teach him how to fucking handle life! Any time any little thing doens go his way immediately he gives up or throws a fit or something! Itā€™s not healthy. So we are trying to ask him to talk about why heā€™s feeling overwhelmed with this or that, help him figure out what can be done (or accept that sometimes thatā€™s just how life is, whatā€™s important it your attitude, a spilt glass is a spilt glass, whether you laugh or scream and cry. Itā€™s happened. Your approach to how you handle that will make you a happier person and folks happier to be around you).
We help him where we can, try to show him things. But no one else cares! If itā€™s not an instant quick fix to what he wants we need to shut up and back off. And it just fucning sucks to see how this is only going to end badly! He isnā€™t being raised how to handle anything at all in life. His moms off living her single life with her boyfriend and weā€™re trying to raise this kid with three adults who are all making things worse and overriding any progress we make.
Today. He snatched his laptop and made a point of putting it on the table during us prepping dinner. I took it out and told him it can wait until heā€™s done with dinner, weā€™re already trying to fix his phone. He will survive one dinner without being on his phone or computer.
He throws himself to the fucking FLOOR screaming and crying. I get yelled at by one of the grandparents while the great aunt tried to ā€˜reasonā€™ with me. Last time she distracted me with what I thought was genuine conversation she was actually having with me but was really jsut so the kid could sneak his laptop into the kitchen. So I stood my ground this time. Let the kid throw his stupid fit. Dinner will be finished soon and he can play and watch his videos. He literally takes 10 minutes to eat and leaves. Iā€™m in the midst of helping my wife cook and set the table when Iā€™m told to essentially shut up and let him have the laptop and.
I just got so mad. I apologizes to my wife but i know my limits. I know them. And I was about to do or say something. Itā€™s every god damned day with this. I literally wake up to this kid screaming and bitching and slamming doors and throwing fits cuz he wants something and heā€™s not getting it. He literally got those tiny finger plastic skateboards cuz he saw and wanted them. And his mom came and picked him up to go BUY these when sheā€™s nearly broke, yelled at us for calling him out on this and how he could have waited, and then ten minutes later ask us for money and food for her pets.
And today?
Today I was so fucking done. So fucking mad. So mad at how they treat my wife. So mad at how their attitudes are ruining the development of this kid who I really do love and I only see him getting shittier as a person. And I went to our room. And my wife joined and cried and cried. Of course the kid got his laptop and all was fine for everyone downstairs. Of course it was. My wife had already cooked dinner and prepped the table. I already folded and hung out the latest laundry. Who cares if weā€™re hurting.
On my way up the stairs I told that kid heā€™s an asshole. To be fair its almost daily he screams at us to go fuck our selves and that we are assholes and how he hates us. I told him he treats his family badly, the family who loves him. And thatā€™s what I left it at. Theyā€™re all Italian. Iā€™m still learning to speak so Iā€™m not able to articulate myself super strongly. Which makes ALL OF THIS so much harder and more frustrating. So so so much harder. But Iā€™m so tired of my wife crying. Iā€™m so tired of how they treat her. I hate how her aunt texted how she loves her and then goes on to excuse this kids shit behavior and reprimand our actions and shit. Why is it the kids feelings are the only ones that matter? Why is my wife constant collateral? Youā€™re damned right Iā€™m fuckin mad.
Iā€™m struggling to work on overcoming my own personal problems and triggers with this EDMR therapy and Iā€™m wakin up up a cocktail of some of my literal nightmares and the kid and family KNOW IT. They donā€™t know the finer details like my wife and therapist. But fuck man. They KNOW and yet they let him keep behaving like this. They keep telling us we are wrong and weā€™re being too hard on the kid and heā€™s struggling cuz his parents divorced.
Well shit kid. That sucks. Iā€™m sorry. Thatā€™s rough. But you literally have a huge family of people who adore and love you. My god I would love to have that. Right now? The fucked up part? My closest kindest most helpful person in my life besides my wife is my father. His age has mellowed him out. Heā€™s still fucked on some stuff. But itā€™s been nearly 30 years. Heā€™s not totally changed but he surly is worlds away from the man I started out with. His financial help provides us food on the table. He recently helped us get a new fridge so my wifeā€™s parents can use it without bending and hurting their backs.
Today I get informed by my mother in law, who had not been present for any of tonightā€™s drama, that my wife needs to stop and that I am to not curse as her grand son ever again. Which, I said he was being an asshole? Cuz he was? He was screaming Curses at us, has been nearly every day anytime heā€™s mad. I called him out. I didnā€™t scream it; I donā€™t scream. I want to be nothing like my father. But I did call him out. Am I proud for calling an 11 boy heā€™s an asshole? Erm. No. But god heā€™s emotionally abusive to this family ajd they allow and encourage it. Iā€™m so scared heā€™s gonna end up pushing one of them in his fits and itā€™s gonna hurt one of them badly or worse! Their healthā€™s already shaky. Weā€™ve already had to help her father up the stairs and to the bathroom and get dressed and undressed due to him feeling back. Hell today my wife took him to a few different docs. Itā€™s been a long fucking day.
This kid was being horribly rude and nasty to my wife. To the grandparents who love him. Was close to breaking stuff. All cuz he had to eat without his laptop! Cuz he didnā€™t listen and got water on his fuckin phone! Which is now working thank god; we fixed that. I just.
I want to cancel therapy. Wise? No. Probably not. But we NEED to get out of here.
We already donā€™t really have any friends. We kinda do. But itā€™s.. kinda temporary conditional. Generally more along the lines of ā€˜workā€™ related or weā€™re the only ones free at that moment in time. Not that theyā€™re bad folks they just donā€™t need us like we need in return.
Personally I know I have problems. Iā€™m boring. Iā€™ve abandonment issues I have and still am working on. And I overthink and Iā€™m so worried that this fucking cluster of things just.. make me one of those folks doomed to just. Not have friends. I hate myself every waking moment of my fucking life cuz I so badly want friends. I wish I didnā€™t. I have tried and tried to not want it. But I do. And it sucks. I know itā€™s me; when something keeps happening itā€™s clear youā€™re the problem. And I ask often. Maybe once a week, a month for sure, my wife what I am doing wrong. What Iā€™m not doing enough. What I could do better. She doesnā€™t have any answers and I canā€™t keep asking her. I hate to ask. I hate wearing her down. I donā€™t know what to do. I am just a fun fling friend. A week, a month, sometimes a year or so, but then it dwindles and dies off
And I spent all my life living between homes when it wasnā€™t with my father, giving up on my privacy, on my interests, my freedom, to put on a smile ajd take on new chores, often caring for kids, and swallowing my own feelings and being less than second or even third place in anyoneā€™s life; I just want someone to choose me first you know? I miss the days of having friends who were excited to have free time cuz that meant they had time to hang out or chat or something! I donā€™t beg; I wonā€™t beg. I donā€™t want to have to fight for a slot in someoneā€™s schedule and pray I get lucky. I also know I canā€™t expect people to have the same wants in a relationship as I do. And so Iā€™m stuck. Sad, quiet, and thankful for what I get when I get it, and quietly letting stuff go. Because the few friends I have are decent folk, but Iā€™m never going to be that friend folks want to be around to just be around.
And Iā€™m still struggling to accept that. Cuz fuck. Alright it hurts. I look back and every friendship lasted only as long as I had something to provide in service. Once I couldnā€™t provide or they found something better, either they drifted off or just completely dropped off the radar. And thatā€¦
That sucks so fuckin much. I donā€™t think Iā€™m a shitty person? I think I can be entertaining? I listen. Maybe my humor isnā€™t okay? I ramble too much? Too spacey? I go over the list so often I donā€™t even know. Iā€™m tired.
Iā€™m not talking romantic here but god I do want to be loved. Or at least have a couple folks good at faking it. I hate that I miss my most toxic friendships. At least they were around. I knew theyd talk to me. Want to. Would seek me out. I knew free days meant we were gonna chill (not always but a good chance!). And I know adult friendships are a bit different. I know work and romance and family take the front seat.
I just want to matter to someone a little more than the one use I can provide. I want to be more than a fun temporary distraction.
Iā€™m beyond thankful for the woman I married. And I mourn that her friends live far away too. We both just want friends. I want to have my wife tell me sheā€™ll be back late cuz sheā€™s going out. I want to see her send me a silly photo or a food snap and have her come back home late, glowing and laughing and smiling with her friends. I want to invite them over to dinner and be on comfortable terms with them. I want to goofy around and be loud and rough house and geek out with my own friends. I want to have that found family you know?
Nearly everyoneā€™s dead on my fathers side and whose left is.. best left alone. Or has made it clear they donā€™t thibk much of me. Ajd my motherā€™s side donā€™t talk to me. I moved so much I donā€™t know them and most of them never bothered cuz they never thought Iā€™d survive as it were. My motherā€™s burnt bridges and that means any chance I had is pretty much gone. I donā€™t know where each and every cousin and and itā€™s just wierd to try and connect cuz we have blood. Itā€™s just. Been too many many years. And itā€™s not like a single persons ever reached out my way you know? Polite to my face and I so back. But thatā€™s the end of it.
God Iā€™m just so burnt out. Iā€™m so sad more than not. Iā€™m trying to get out of my funk. I hate how I stay in bed. I donā€™t mean to. I just. Itā€™s our only space to be left alone in, for the most part. Every home Iā€™ve lived in being alone was best. My room (if I had that, or at the least it was shared with someone else), was one of the few solaceā€™s. Usually my only real peace was the bathroom.
And I am finding it hard to break out of that. I want to quit therapy and save up money and get us OUT of here. I feel my progress would go better and my wife would be so much happier if we could just Get Out.
Maybe weā€™d even be fortunate and meet some friends who liked us and wanted to be around, if we had our own place? A fun possibility. I am use to running a house. Iā€™ve done it countless times. It was my job with my father. Often it was a strange mash up of that with other families but with a lot less freedom.
Iā€™ve stayed up all night cuz I feel like puking and Iā€™m drowning and I needed to just.. get the thoughts out of my head just a little. I know Iā€™ve only scratched the surface. I havenā€™t shared everything. I donā€™t really plan to. But these are the things most in my head
Dealing with this shit. On top of this therapy that has me reliving my childhood traumas one at a time to heal them over or some shit on top of waking up to screaming and doors slamming as my wife gets yelled at for trying to stop that situation sucks. Seeing my phone buzz only to constantly see just comic updates (often to comics Iā€™m not even waiting on), my father messaging me either bad news or stuff heā€™s doing, and my mother with her bullshit and her bad news and guilt trips, instead of a friendly hello is just.
Iā€™m tired of crying too. My fathers discipline has made me adverse to crying. I literally tore myself off the road when I wrecked my motorcycle, I forced my knee to bend so I could continue on my way to work where I treated the road rash, the rolled flesh, the open wounds, with rubbing alcoholā€” which took the breath right out of my fucking lungs, and I didnā€™t cry. But this shit?
Iā€™m so worn. My therapist praises me for surviving when I wish I didnā€™t.
For my wife? I will try. For her. I canā€™t hurt her.
But god. Whatā€™s fucking relief it would be. I wish there was just something I could do. To fix this. To be less selfish and problematic. Though as I can very clearly remember wishing all my life for any kind of mercy to never see it, I know thatā€™s not gonna happen. You are your own hero or your own villian. Right now Iā€™m both and Iā€™m losing.
Iā€™m probably gonna just get dressed since the suns up and start drawing more wood plans. I need to make extra money. I can be sad and work; Iā€™ve had jobs before. Ha.
I thoroughly believe life will be a little better once we have breathing room. Iā€™m so tired.
