#and sometimes that hurts like hell

[shadow-pixelle]

Me, while starting this chapter a few days ago; man, I'm not sure this is actually going to be long enough for a chapter... I mean I might want to split it into a sidestory thing anyway, I don't like how chapter 6 to 7 to 8 would flow with this as chapter 7, but even then...

Me, now, checking my wordcount for the funsies; how the fuck did this hit 2.7k.

Sometimes the words just word, I guess.

Also I have a particular favourite line from this maybe-chapter now. It's probably one of my favourites in the fic. Which'll make it a bit disappointing if I shunt it to sidestory, but also like. My narrative flow?

Song for August: Neon Knights by Black Sabbath

~~~ I got really into the sword & sorcery vibes lately so I decided that I wanted to paint August Lubi in the style of 70s pulp fantasy covers. Main inspiration for this was Michael Whelan (I pretty much directly referenced his green Elric cover for the raised arm)

This was challenging, but also incredibly fun! It was refreshing to work in such different way from my usual process! <:

Love Laudna wanting Orym to be the one to cut her down if need be because she feels he can make hard choices, and Travis like "uh hello? What about Chetney? You want to put Orym through that anguish? I am right here" like damn, he right tho

sometimes I forget that my experience has been. um. not 'your experiences are not universal' vibes but more like 'your experiences are EXTREMELY atypical'

fun fact about me at least is that it is easier to draw a whole scenes one after another than it is to draw a close shots of characters just standing there over and over

"Haha ASL Brothers haha more like American Sign Language" well, actually, YES. After the explosives that made Sabo lose his memory, he also started to have difficulties hearing and Dragon had to teach him ASL. He doesn't want to worry Luffy and Ace (he's alive. Shut up) when they meet again, so he doesn't say anything. But they start noticing he can't hear them well anymore and his fake smiles are too fake for his brothers not to notice it. So!!! Luffy tells Robin and Robin actually knows ASL?? And Marco does too, so Ace also has a teacher. Then, when they see each other again, Ace and Luffy start signing almost perfectly (almost. They're pretty clumsy and Sabo sometimes has a hard time trying to understand wtf they're trying to say). Sabo pretty much starts crying when this happens. Dumbass brothers that learned ASL for him. He loves them so much.

I know how it sounds at first, but I really gotta feel bad for the boys that sacrificed edwin; I mean even the term “sacrificed edwin” paints them in a more sinister light than they really deserve– considering that wasn’t really, actually their intention.

they were bullies, they were homophobic (and/or were self loathing gay boys themselves taking it out on edwin, or were equally likely peer pressured into acting a certain way), they planned something stupid and mean to do to an innocent, anxious boy with the goal of scaring the shit out of him, all because he was effeminate and an easy target. but they didn’t know or expect any of the ritual stuff to be real. they were all laughing and joking during the ritual because it was just that to them– a joke. a cruel joke, but a joke.

teenagers can be mean and stupid and they usually regret it as adults and grow out of it / grow from it. they were stifled the chance to grow out of it, at least while alive. none of those boys deserved to be instakilled and sent to hell; they’re really not that much less deserving than edwin himself. they were all just kids, after all.

today as I was picking, one of my bosses saw me and was like 'freeze!!' so I stopped moving because I thought I was in trouble and he came over and said he wanted to talk to me before the store got insane: but basically he told me Merry Christmas and thanked me for all my hard work and I almost cried on the spot.

i’m having such a hard time wrapping my mind around liam payne’s death. i didn’t like him as a person and i don’t think anyone whose discussed his abuse of maya henry should retract their statements or feel bad about them no matter how harsh they were because it’s important to talk about to prevent it from happening again. because of his history of abuse and grooming fans i can’t mourn him the way i would’ve ten years ago and any tears i do shed will be for his friends family maya henry and his other victims who shouldn’t feel bad and be made to feel bad by stans who put their faves over the protection and safety of women and girls. i don’t feel like it’s the place of people who didn’t know him personally (knew him through one direction etc) to tell other who didn’t know him because emotions have no morality and people’s feelings over a death shouldn’t be dictated underneath a urfaveisproblematic lens

part 11/26ish

anyone remember those scales with the springs in 'em? all i ever see these days are digital scales but those things made the best noises. i think i've seen some kitchen scales that still use spring mechanisms, but it's been a while.

technology is weird.

A Real Love Story

WOOOSH!!!! that was all he could hear as the ground came rushing closer and closer to him. One moment they were in a helicopter, The next he was being pulled out and headed towards the river at at least 50 MPH. They had been trying to escape yet again, Had been on the run for so long it was hard to remember how long exactly. But that was the CRM for you, They never gave up and they never stop searching till they had you. And Dennis Graham knew that with how important him and his wife Jennifer Mallick were there was no chance of them giving up looking for them. And they indeed did find them, and was taking them back to HQ and Jadis's order.

But Jennifer seemed to have had other things in mind, Because she had opened that helicopter door, And Next thing he knew he was being pulled out with her, Finally they hit the water and, yeah it hurt like a bitch. But it was smart of her part because she knew exactly where to do it and the chances of survival. The moment he hit the water he started to swim to shore keeping Jennifer in his eye sight. Once there he looked at her but didn't say anything he was mad as hell. Not because she did it but because there was a chance that they could have died. That she could of died and he would never forgive himself for that. He already had lost so much time with her because of his screw up's and he wanted to fix that.

"Come on this way." He said, His tone sharp and angry but again not at her. He pushed through the trees and finally came to what appeared to a city though he wasn't sure what city. If he had to guess it was probably New Jeresy or New York, Though again he wasn't sure. Finally he nodded towards a building and started to head there. At least they would be safe for a bit. It looked like it had seen better days but what other choice did they have? Finally they got inside and he made sure to lock the doors so none of the undead could get in. And the fact that they had no idea how many were inside already just made it worse. But lucky for them as they made their way upstairs they didn't come along any though he could hear them.

Finally they found and unlocked room and he walked inside pulling her along with him before he closed the door. He was just about to say something when he heard a loud crash across from them, It was so loud and strong that it shook the building but as he glanced out the window he saw the helicopter they were in crashing into the building, But that wasn't what shocked him, It was the fact that there was another helicopter shooting rockets at the building and helicopter it was the CRM taking out the evidence of them being there. He moved into the shadows where the helicopter couldn't see them before he looked at her.

"Are you insane?" he asked her. " We could have died…. YOU could have!!!" he said as water dripped down his face. He knew that she was probably thinking that it would be better then being locked up in a cell in some CRM holding facility but not to him. He looked away as his eye caught the fire from the other building. "I think we will be safe here at least for the night." he said as he looked at her. @scarfacewastaken
