#as the oldest sibling

[tripthelightfandomtastic]

I wanna tell yall something my friend told me that broke me about Waited All Your Life (theory of its origin) SO, back when Jake got pneumonia, it turned out it was way worse than we thought and they said Jake was close to losing a lung. He was in the hospital for a few days, and it was right as Dreams in Gold (the biggest tour Greta has EVER done at that point in time) had just began. I can only imagine the fear Josh must have felt for his brother (his own twin, a bond so thick I cannot even imagine) and how much sadness and anxiety he felt watching his sick brother in a hospital bed, not knowing what this would mean for not just the band or the tour BUT FOR JAKE!

This is Jake's band. This is his entire dream. And what if it all fell away and it stopped before it ever got to truly start.

You've come from so far away

You've been on your way

And do you intend to stay?

Swim to shore

If this is what you're looking for

Shout, "Oh Lord"

If this is what you're looking for

You've been on your way

Please stay

All these lyrics sound like he's telling him to fight and get better and to stay to follow his dream and stay with him.

Then, finally:

Please stay, please stay, please stay

Don't go away.

^ and if this doesn't break your heart thinking about Josh with his head in his hands in Jake's room while he sleeps in his hospital bed as he's praying for his recovery, then idk what to tell ya.

I know this song probably has many meanings, but this just hits me in my heart.

Shen Yuan, a 20-something y/o: I don't get how Luo Binghe fell in love with an old man like me

Shang Qinghua, a 60-something y/o: My King thinks we're around the same age but I'm actually old enough to be his father (and I kind of am)

This is not meant to be a dig more just an observation at why opinions differ, but I feel like the people who view Dick as being a fatherly figure to Damian/them having a Parent-Child dynamic vs a Older Sibling-Little Sibling dynamic don’t know what it’s like to have siblings that are waaaaaaaay older than you in a big family! They may take on a more guardian role but it’s still a different dynamic idk

Want to make a minor adjustment to my Steve With Much Older Siblings post from yesterday. I think it’d be a much more interesting dynamic if he’s actually their half sibling from an affair.

Their father had an affair with his secretary and then married her when she got pregnant. It broke up their family and they blamed Steve for it for years.

When they stayed over for their weekend with Dad, they were either outright cruel to him or pretended he didn’t exist. When they were old enough to stop coming over, they did. It’s only after growing up and maturing that (most of) his siblings were able to acknowledge that Steve was never at fault for their family breaking up.

They tried to mend their relationship with him, especially after realizing how absent his parents are, but by then Steve was old enough to build up his own resentment. It’s an uphill battle.

It’s a lot of actually coming around for holidays and a lot of teasing when they do. It’s actually picking the phone when the hospital calls, something that’s happening with increasing frequency.

Steve has never asked any of them for anything until one day, he shows up on Richie’s front porch smelling like death and gasoline. He’s got blood drying all over him and is visibly shaking, and Richie thinks that he’s been hurt in the earthquake but Steve barely acknowledges the concern, “I need you to represent my friend.”

“What?”

“You’re the only lawyer I know, and -“ Steve takes a big shuttering breath. “They’ll kill him, Rich. He never hurt anybody but no one will listen. They’ll lock him up and it won’t be fair, and Dustin can’t… I never ask you for anything but. But I need…”

“Eddie Munson?” He asks incredulous. “You’re friends with Eddie Munson?”

I don't need to have kids when I'm an elder sibling with a 14+ year age gap between us and absent/busy parents. When was the last time you got a fresh toothbrush. What happened to your knee. The fuck you mean you don't have a swim suit. Get in the car.

[circusinarun]

Being the oldest kid in the family giving me a bunch of ideas on how to draw Raph :]

Happened to me and my lil sis not so long ago.

I think Leo was a kinda spoiled kid (in some aspects) and always refused to see Raph as a superior figure

(Arghhhhh! I want to learn how to draw Raph more chubby and beefy :( )

oh real and fictional older sisters, you'll always be tragic.
