❝ went looking for a creation myth, ended up with a pair of cracked lips. ❞

He feels it first at the back of his neck. A buzzing, like the crackling of electricity underneath his skin, reverberating against the hollow of his skull. Something is knocking, making its presence known: A particular kind of evil that had snuck into Stiles’ mind once already, stealing away control over his body. Condemning him to sit back, trapped in his own mind, rendering him powerless. Doomed to watch in horror as his  blood-stained hands wielded sharpened blades against those he loved. They’d gotten him out, though nearly at the cost of his own life—a sacrifice Stiles had been more than willing to make, so long as no one else would get hurt because of him. And yet something must have stayed behind, lodged into the membrane of his skull like a shard of glass. For the longest time he’d managed to keep the horrors contained to only haunt him in the dead of night, leaving him sleep deprived and wrung out, every nerve ending scraped thin. But now, even the light of day no longer offers refuge for Stiles to feel safe. Long gone is the once obnoxiously loud, carefree kid—left in its stead is a man carrying himself with caution, treading quietly across the space between other people’s reality and what lies beyond. He knows there are demons out there listening, waiting for an opportunity to exploit any sign of weakness—a door left slightly ajar, perhaps, much like the door to Stiles’ mind they’d never managed to close. The feeling of impending doom crescendos and Stiles, feeling sick to his stomach with fear, clings desperately to the words he repeats to himself like a mantra. "Nothing gets in unless you let it.” But the words turn to ash in his mouth, memories of past experiences proving him a liar.

I think I've loved you since I met you. I just mistook it for curiosity.

Ever since I first laid eyes on you, I felt this unquenchable need to know you. I blamed it on ulterior motives, justified it because I needed something from you, because you held the answers I was looking for, because no one else was able to help but you. Looking back on it now though, I'm starting to think that maybe some part of me knew right from the start, that first night I stumbled upon you in the woods, what took me years to see: Maybe my heart recognized that it was going to love you right away, and I spent the years to come catching up with what it knew right from the start. That it was always going to be you. How could it ever have been anyone else? Through mayhem and bloodshed, through fear and loss, through grief and sleepless nights, you were the one constant that remained. When I lost sight of everything—first myself, then reality, then hope—you were the one guiding my way like a beacon, or a north star. If I've ever known peace, it's in all the moments that your hand has touched mine and that your arms have held me tirelessly, putting your body like a shield between me and every inkling of danger. Of all the late-night wonderings of trying to make sense of the last decade (and failing), what remains is this singular thought: At least it was you. At least it was me. At least it was us, together. I'd bear it all a million times over if it meant I got to hold your hand at the end of it all. You are the moment of quiet at the end of a long day, you are breathless laughter, you're the patch of sunlight filtering in through the window that I stand in to warm myself. You are everything good in this world and living proof that there is hope despite it all, and I love you beyond measure.

Why is there so much surprise everywhere that Australia does well in Aquatic events at the Olympics?

The rest of you aren’t even girt by sea.

Fun fact for a while I thought Amazing Grace was the US's anthem

Nowadays ik it's the Star Spangled Banner but the closest I ever got to the lyrics was ProZD's "If America had a dick, I would suck America's dick"

its ok amazing grace is much better than star spangled banner, our national anthem is ASS

i luvv modern aemond old money vibess but its so hard to find one so im loving the president aemond, and honestly i can bear all the angst in a fic as long as the couple end it together anyway

How optimistic of you to believe that the married president and the junior reporter will end up together in the end.

This is the type of mindset that gets humanity through wars. Keep at it 💛💛💛

Hahaha thank you for loving our President Aemond!!!

Hi! You've mentioned that 'What We Want' has a playlist. If it's not to spoilery (and you feel comfortable doing so) could you share some of the songs on it.

I hope you start feeling better soon. ❤️

oh my god im so glad someone asked!!! I'll share some of my favourite songs from the playlist, the ones that i think like... summarise the stories feeling the most. Idk. The ones with the highest vibe quality. Some of these you will actually see referenced in the fic later on lmao.

Here's the playlist for your listening pleasure

If you have any more questions, theories (what song relates to which character, where in the story, etc) please send it in! I love talking about this.

Toronto Maple Leafs: How many holes does a straw have?

[yellowloid]

if were being realistic tlsp duets are very unlikely. i think the best we'll get is 505 w/ mk, and he opens for them and then thats all, but we can dream

i knowwww i honestly think that's the most realistic scenario here, and even then will it only be once? twice (once in dublin and once in belfast)? four nights in a row? i wish i was normal about the fact that we have no way of knowing

[subtle-as-an-earthquake]

i'm a day late, but to mark the occasion of AM turning ten i recorded a little acoustic cover of one of my fave songs off the album ♥️

i only recently started playing again (and learned to play this song yesterday) so it's definitely somewhat rough around the edges, but i figured i'd share it anyway just as a little tribute to my all time favourite band and the record's birthday? idk, happy birthday AM <3 🎂

do u think present day carlos would be able to dominate in the mclaren rocketship? i rate him higher than lando and i think ppl who say charles doesn’t rate carlos are in denial but idk. in addition to that, do you think carlos has improved as a driver since joining ferrari?

Ok so my tldr is that I truly don't know.

Longer answer: obviously we have no way of knowing how well Carlos would adapt to the Mclaren compared to the current drivers, but I think Lando > Carlos right now. This season so far I'd put Max ≈ Charles > Lando in the top three, and then probably George above Oscar and Carlos <- this is a very subjective ranking that's in terms of performance they've been able to extract from the car, so obviously teammate head to head plays a big part. You could argue that Carlos being Charles's teammate does him no favour, and Lando having a teammate that he handily beats at qualifying makes him look better. I think Carlos at Mclaren would have more points than Oscar does, because Carlos is a more solid qualifier, but I genuinely don't know how he'd compare to Lando. He's better at holding to a pole position, but all I feel confident saying is that if that we'd had a Lando & Carlos lineup, Mclaren would've reached P1 in the wcc a few weeks earlier.

On Charles and Carlos, I think Charles rates Carlos as a driver he wants on his team. but also someone he knows he can beat. Like, in a "I can't slack off, he'd keep me honest" but also someone that, if they both had a championship caliber car, he's confident he'd beat. I don't think this means he doesn't rate him! Just "Charles he thinks he's the better driver" which, good for him #mentality. (OBVIOUSLY 2024 Carlos >> Mclaren Carlos tho)

Em help what should be the first ever song I listen to from Greta Van Fleet?

okay, so, the first song that *i* ever heard by gvf was Heat Above and H O L Y S H I T. i was on board immediately, so i think i would suggest that one!!

the entirety of The Battle at Garden’s Gate is incredible, one of my fav albums of all time. Broken Bells, Stardust Chords, and Barbarians are some of my other favorite songs from it!

but you also can’t go wrong with the classics Highway Tune and Safari Song

I just finished national anthem! am I quite confused? yep. Did I somewhat doubt the people I've seen on here talking about how confusing the plot was? yes (sorry guys you were right <3)

Is Kara hot as fuck? uh yes :p

[weatheredcopper]

remember when everyone was trying to convince themselves that girls/girls/boys by panic at the disco was a bi anthem and not like. brendan urie's weird threesome fantasy. what was that about
