You will end up alone darling. Think about it. You think you're fooling everyone, but at the end of the day, you're only fooling yourself.

To Stay Alive In All Seasons

To Stay Alive In All Seasonsby Michael DoyleWe give up our courageTrying hard to discourageOurselves or any othersAmong those we call our brothersBut not a single John Wayne aspirationWould save Pearl Harbor or our nationThe men present mostly fought to stay aliveBelly crawling through smoke just to surviveSeldom has a situation been more direThere were some still fighting who had caught fireSome…

tumblr users will have the most inaccessible, unreadable, low contrast, flashing carrd you can possibly imagine, with a dni full of insider acronyms with no translation and numerous link buttons labelled with cryptic captions, and then go ahead and put “ableists dni and kys!” on that carrd

That night was present to Barbara now, with all its words and its delusive hopes; terribly present to her was their bitter ending.

What would be going through Mychael’s mind if the MC was cold/hostile towards others except him? Especially after day 3, where he gets to see MC interact either other people, like Alma

It would come as a shock, to be honest, followed by a feeling of betrayal and sadness. Here he thought he found someone with a soft heart and a kind soul, but after that display, he's gonna second guess every interaction he's ever had with you.

Why be different with him? Did you not trust him after all? Was it all for show? Was it just to butter him up so he would send you home?

He probably won't show up to meet you after all.

Fanart animation for @bamsaras cult of the lamb fic - The Rehabilitation Of Death!

A little head canon that Narinder kept the little lamb doll because it reminds him of when he used to hold Lambert back in his realm

Ye know, just a lil bitter-sweet memories :3

I thought of this head canon when I saw one of bams art dump posts and its been on my mind ever since lol but I finally decided to draw it :D (well, animate)

Song used:

Sad Piano Music 'Nowhere' [Extremely Sad] - Samuel Backof

Batman gets hit with something that makes him lose all his memories up until Dick’s second year of being Robin.

Dick is the one who finds him first. Bruce immediately recognises him because of course he does, that’s his son, he would know him just from the cadence of his walk, even though he’s grown into his limbs and lost the awkward pitter-patter of a growing boy. He would know him just from his voice, even if it’s now the voice of a 28 year old man instead of a 10 year old boy.

He knows next to nothing about the great things Nightwing has achieved and yet he’s maybe just slightly choked up when he throws one long look at him and says “you’ve turned out better than anything I could have ever expected” and Dick is maybe also slightly choked up because Bruce has no idea the impact those words have on him.

He has no idea this is the most open version of himself that Dick has spoken to ever since they lost Jason. He has no idea that despite Dick knowing that Bruce is proud of him and what he’s achieved, it still hits him hard when he actually hears the words out of his mouth. Bruce has no idea how much it hurt to be confronted with the version of his Batman that he misses so much and resigned to never seeing again.

And when Bruce regains his memory and they go back to the status quo, neither of them daring to mention that moment, every time Bruce does something that infuriates him, every time his words seem harsh without regard, he’s going to remember those words and sometimes that still doesn’t change a thing but sometimes, sometimes it does.

People in this fandom grossly over estimate how much influence w*ngxian would most likely have on Jin Ling's life post-canon

i'm in tears. do you know how beautiful this subversion of expectations irt death is to me. do you even understand how important it is. she's all warmth and love, always surrounded by vibrant displays of life - rather than the expected wither and decay. because death is not the antithesis to life: it is life. they are a part of each other. saying goodbye is always hard, but you have to let everything go, eventually. it's okay, it's not a punishment, it's not scary, it's not lonely - it's one last well-earned rest. releasing your borrowed energy back unto the universe so it can feed a new budding life, starting the cycle anew. and she's here to hold and cradle you until you're ready to go. you lived well. you were loved. sweet dreams, okay?

does vale just have like wildly low emotional intelligence to be this delusional about their fallout (he’s ignoring like. large swaths of context for 2015 i think. like it’s crazy that his and marc’s stories are so wildly mismatched not just in terms of content but also in terms of TIMELINE) or are his unique trauma responses to a tough childhood and fame and competing in god’s most awful death sport just insanely damaging. wait just answered my own question. um.

you would think that harding & varric potentially being operatives for the organization that restored the templar order to its full authority would have interesting implications for their dynamics with a mage rook, but that would require us to care about what happened in the literal prequel to this game, so..............................

sorry but i can’t stop laughing because it’s so fucking funny that out of everyone gabriel and beelzebub got their “happy ending”. gabriel and beelzebub. the ‘crackship’. that basically got their whole romantic arc developed in 5 minutes. it’s just too funny
