#brotp: you from the sea me from the sky

[a-merman-not-a-guppy]

When I’m falling down down down You always save me The warmth that knew my feelings Your breath that embraced me It opened my eyes Like a lost star Every day I wander around Your friendly hand Following you, I am dreaming once again Now because you are here, I'm breathing

[a-merman-not-a-guppy]

Finn's face felt warm, especially his cheeks and his ears, but it was a good sort of warm. He liked the feeling. He liked how it felt to try these things with Nemo. "Your lips...they're really soft too," he mumbled, gripping onto Nemo's hand as a good support, lifting their hands and pressing a soft kiss to the back of Nemo's hand also.

It was nice to be able to show his love and affection for Nemo in this way too. It felt like an extension of all the good feelings he had for his closest friend and soulmate. "C-Can I..." he trailed off after a moment, scooting in close again, their faces not too far apart. "C-Can I kiss you again?" He asked. "Just a little b-b-bit more?" It was funny, really. Finn had never thought about kissing much before. He had never really thought about what it would be like to want to kiss more than once even. Or to feel like once or twice just wasn't enough to express the depth of a feeling.

Finn found that he felt that way now. He had gone a year without Nemo and it had been painful. Now it felt like a part of him ached even being so close to him. Like he needed more and more time to make up for the time they hadn't seen each other. "You're the most b-b-beautiful p-p-person in the whole w-w-world Nemo," Finn told him softly. "Inside and out. I know it."

grimora for the ask game !!

Favorite thing about them: I feel like this is cheating because it’s so niche but I love the skeleton hand that rings the bell in the Finale (honestly Grimora’s whole aesthetic in the finale is phenomenal but if I had to narrow it down to one detail it would be that). Also a very small detail but I like how in her idle animations her hands are always folded over her abdomen; reminds me of the way people are laid to rest in coffins and really cements her undead status for me.

Least favorite thing about them: I wish she had some/more lines talking about her subordinates. We really don’t get to know much about how she feels about them which is sad. (I’d say the whole “killing everyone” thing too but… I don’t completely blame her on that one—similar to the other Scrybes’ Batshit Machinations, I can see why she felt like she needed to do it. Not to mention she didn’t technically succeed so I’ll give her a pass (I say that jokingly but holy shit did it catch me off-guard in my first playthrough))

Favorite line: This bit in her boss fight. Absolutely insane mechanic (just killing all of your cards but instead of the PG “turn them into gold” she just casually hands you back their lifeless bodies. Also pretty good foreshadowing in hindsight).

brOTP: I’ve seen a couple of works where Grimora has Royal as her right-hand man and they both get to be pirates together and you guys are absolutely correct. They should get to explore the high seas (or at very least I’d like to imagine Royal spins a lot of tales about his time when he was alive—a lot of which are pretty exaggerated—and she listens and makes sure to write them down regardless).

OTP: Her and any/all of the other Scrybes. She deserves better but the other three immortal shitheads she has to share an archipelago with will have to suffice. I’d say they’re all divorced but that’s probably putting it too simply. It’s more accurate to say they’re all fighting to see who’s the best at inventing a brand new type of complicated relationship. They’re all winning.

(I’ve also seen her paired off with the Woodcarver—not my thing personally, but I think it’s cute)

nOTP: Haven’t seen any Grimora ships that I don’t like honestly. But again I’m not super into shipping so that might be part of why this category has been blank the past couple of times—I’m not seeing many ships so there’s not any for me to report on.

Random headcanon: The dead can’t really “sleep” (and don’t really need to)—they just sort of “fall prone” into a state where they don’t really rest and don’t dream. As a result, a “sleeping” Grimora just looks like a corpse… more like a corpse than usual, anyway (she already rarely breathes and her heartbeat is so slow the event sometimes surprises her, but you know, completely lifeless). This would be disconcerting for the other Scrybes if not for her other far more concerning physiological traits. Like the first time she came to a meeting with her head in her hands—literally—and a needle and thread to sew it back on while the others talked. Not much got done that day.

Unpopular opinion: As much as I wish she did get more screentime I can see why that wasn’t really possible. Inscryption is already a pretty long game as-is, adding a whole card segment for Grimora—while it would be fun DLC—isn’t really feasible in the base game. Having said that, I do still wish we got to know a little more about her, even if it was just via some lines from her subordinates.

Song I associate with them: My knee-jerk is Necromancin Dancin by Bear Ghost just because it’s a batshit ridiculous villain song about the undead (she deserves to be a little more unhinged than how she gets portrayed by a lot of people; just look at the other Scrybes), but for something a little more fittingly melancholic I’d go for Grave Digger by Blues Sarcaceno or Dance While the Sky Crashes Down by Jason Webley.

Favorite picture of them: Please check out the official renders of her 3D model if you haven’t already seen them. She’s lovely. [Link]

Also a fan of this particular Stinkbug sprite (and the base sprite of course, but everyone knows what that one looks like).

for character asks I'll say Ariel, and if you've seen Strange World, Searcher? :3

I'll discuss Ariel! :)

Favorite thing about them: Favorite things about them, you mean? It's hard to confine my thoughts to just one with a character who means this much to me. I deeply relate to her sense of restless longing in Part of Your World, that sense in your life that something is off even as the world tells you otherwise, that yearning for a change even when it seems impossible. Big trans feelings there. I love her defiance, and I love that the film sympathizes with that defiance even when she makes mistakes. I love her curiosity and adventurous spirit. I love her excitement when Eric shows her around his kingdom.

Least favorite thing about them: I have an affection for Return to the Sea, even if that is largely nostalgia, and I want to say immediately that I still like the concept, but... her and Eric's handling of the whole Morgana wants to kill Melody plotline. Again, I love the basic concept of "now Ariel is in the parental role clashing with her daughter" and I feel that concept beautifully builds off her clashing with her father in the first film and I love the way Jodi Benson can convey such a sense of conflictedness and love from her tone of voice, but the basic concept gets dragged down by Disney direct to video sequel clunkiness in terms of plotting, so it makes Ariel, Eric, Triton, and everyone feel written in a contrived way.

Three things i have in common with them:

I've had a restless longing for change in my life - not because I'm literally a mermaid yearning to join the human world, but you know where I'm going here, I'm sure. :)

I have a complicated relationship with my family because of that.

I am incredibly passionate about and defensive of the things I love.

Three things i don’t have in common with them:

I cannot sing.

My hair is not as fabulous as hers.

I have never been a mermaid.

Favorite line: Ooh, this is difficult How about a few of them?

"What would I give if I could live out of these waters? What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?"

In two lines, they are able to set up so much, and do so in a way that truly and compassionately conveys a sense of desperation. God, I feel those words, and the way Jodi Benson sings "if I could live" and "what would I pay" is haunting, aching, beautiful.

And immediately afterward:

"Bet'cha on land they understand Bet they don't reprimand their daughters Bright young women, sick of swimmin' Ready to stand"

People can cringe at this line all they want, but they are wrong and making jokes like "oh honey I have some news for you about the surface world" MISSES THE WHOLE POINT OF WHAT THE LYRICS ARE TRYING TO CONVEY.

I also want to say, I love the dialogue that opens Part of your World ("I just don't see things the way he does.") Both versions are great. The film has it as "If only I could make him understand," but I prefer the version you hear on audio recordings that goes, "Maybe he's right. Maybe there is something the matter with me." Because... oh, that hits a little to close to home in terms of self-hatred internalized by closeted queer folks and it hurts, but it's able to so truthfully convey the feeling.

And... "Flounder, don't be such a guppy." I just love the playful energy of her introduction and her and Flounder's rapport.

brOTP: her and Flounder, her and Urchin

OTP: her and Eric

nOTP: her and [insert any particularly incongruous character here]

Random Headcanon: With Disney characters, I sometimes weave old storybooks and games into my personal headcanons about them, so. When I was little, we had this storybook that included a bunch of different stories from Disney characters and one of them was Ariel going up to the surface and seeing the night sky for the first time. I like to think something like that happened in movie canon.

Unpopular Opinion: I don't know how unpopular it is, but considering the general public's jokes at the character's expense... my opinion is people who blame Ariel for her naivete regarding humans and do CinemaSins style "illogic" counters should point out the illogic of Triton not laying down the law to the humans about fishing, especially considering canon shows us that, with his trident, he could have done like Ursula and visited his wrath upon them, OR, if he didn't want to go full Orm, he could just make clear that there are sentient creatures within the sea. I'm just saying, you can call out the individual with way more power in this situation, as well.

And if you're going to say, well, both he and Ariel are at a disadvantage as merpeople, then maybe turn your critique to a larger discussion of why media with these hidden underwater worlds like TLM, like Aquaman, etc., all operate on this assumption that these worlds should be invisible or hidden, and what that says about filmmakers privileging the human race etc. THERE IS a compelling critique there... but people just make cheap and lazy jokes about Ariel, when Ariel is actually the one striving to engage and do something, at least.

Song i associate with them: Part of Your World and its reprise

Favorite picture of them: This picture, from the Part of Your World reprise. It's iconic for a reason. Everything building to this moment, this whole sequence, is SUBLIME. Possibly the greatest moment in Disney animation history:

This art, by winderly:

The picture on the Ariel's Story Studio CD-ROM because it holds a ton of nostalgia:

Ariel on the cover of that storybook I mentioned above. I love how she and Flounder are right in the center, I love her smile and pose:

Private Clarke Griffin was presumed dead in the act of saving her squad during their deployment in war-torn Azgeda. For six years and seven days, Bellamy believed he’d lost her, never saying how he truly felt about her. But then, a miracle. Bellamy discovers that Clarke’s alive, and coming home, and she’s not alone. But six years in captivity is a long time, and there’s so much for the both of them to confront. It will take everything they have to do it, but there’s hope. There’s the possibility for them to heal. And hopefully not only that, but to heal together.

Bellamy's a spy for Mt. Weather, damning his soul in exchange for keeping Octavia alive.

Then his latest assignment to infiltrate Griffin's Laboratories and get close to one Clarke Griffin changes everything. Suddenly, he doesn't have just one person he'd do anything to protect. If only she didn't hate him once she discovers the truth about him. To his utmost surprise though, she agrees to work with him to save his sister and bring down Mt. Weather.

GX Month Day 28: “Internationals”

We’re taking it to the big leagues today with the overseas champions, Austin O’Brien/Axel Brody, Jim “Crocodile” Cook, and Amon/Adrian Gecko!

I have a new brotp.

Jim breathes.

The sun shines in a blue sky above him. The dirt is firm and solid under his feet. There’s no pitch black darkness or blinding white light in a dizzying kaleidoscope of hot and cold. Up and down, and left and right make sense. He can hear birds in the trees instead of screaming and sobbing. Whatever the hell that place was, Jim got out, and he breathes in a deep breath of the crisp air that always carries a hint of the sea.

He’s home. He’s safe. They all are.

Mostly.

Jim cringes at the reminder that Jaden hadn’t made it back with them. Jesse and Syrus seem convinced that Jaden will ‘catch up’, and Christina has been surprisingly tight-lipped about the whole mess. Jim reckons she saw or otherwise knows something, but it never does well to force these matters in Jim’s experience. They’ve all been coming down from some pretty heavy fight-or-flight.

For now, Jim focuses on the dirt beneath his feat and the breeze against his face. Shirley is a comforting weight against his back, probably the only thing that kept him sane back in that other place. He watched as others lost themselves to shadows or bursts of light, while he and his friends clung to each other all the tighter.

A growl from Shirley jolts Jim back to the present. “Good girl,” he murmurs, patting her snout. It’s her job to look after him when he gets lost in his own head, that’s why he’s allowed to have her with him, after all, and she does her job well.

Spotting Axel a bit further down the path, Jim grins and hussles over. A nice friendly chat would do him well. He taps Axel on the shoulder to let the guy know he’s there. With a full body jerk, Axel spins around and Jim narrowly misses taking a fist to the face. Thank heavens for his cultivated reflexes from hanging around wild animals.

“Jim!” Axel immediately recoils, looking horrified. “My god, I’m sorry!”

“Nah, mate, I shouldn’t have snuck up on ya.” Jim waves a hand and grins to show he doesn’t take it personally. He really should have considered that. Damn, he’s off his game today.

“Still I-” Axel looks pained, and Jim waves his hand again.

“I get it, mate, we’re all still a bit high strung.” Rubbing the back of his neck, Jim lets the smile fall from his face. “Was hoping you could distract me a bit?”

Axel blinks, then the remainder of his tension drains. “Yeah. A distraction sounds nice.”

Jim beams. “I hear there’s a hot spring around here. Never got to try it out before we got slingshotted across dimensions. Wanna come find it with me?”

“Why don’t we just ask one of the others for directions?”

“Where’s yur sense of adventure!” Jim throws out his hands.

“Back in the other dimension,” Axel deadpans.

Ah. Well.

Jim tips his hat. “Let’s go get those directions.”

Thoughts on mermaid Magnus au

my immediate thought is “magnus and maia brotp!” because like yeah? yeah? maia? marine biologist? magnus? mermaid? yeah? yeah? yeah! so like maia is this aspiring marine biologist who lives by the seaside and she’s always trying to figure out new ways to watch the ocean from afar, since she’s kind of scared of the ocean, you know, maybe especially because she’s a marine biologist and she knows all the weird stuff that lives in there.. anyway she eventually ends up seeing magnus because she was out there staring at the ocean wishing that she’d get to courage to at least snorkel dive or something and oops there is some guy coming out of the water and he DEFINITELY has a tail even if it transforms into legs when he’s on the ground or like smth idk and she’s like “what” and magnus is like “uh” and she’s like “uh” and they’re like “uh”

anyway cue magnus freaking out because obviously a mundane shouldn’t know about mermaids and what the hell does he DO now but maia is just like “wow. that would... solve a lot of my problems” and magnus is all confused and she explains to him that she loves the ocean and wants to be a biologist one day but she’s terrified of the sea, and magnus is like “ah. well. you have to be born a mermaid” and she chuckles like “bummer” and he’s like “...and you’re not freaking out about this” 

so you know, she promises she won’t tell anyone and who would believe her anyway? and he ends up sitting down beside her and she asks questions about what living in the ocean is like and stuff and he answers and eventually the sun is going up and he goes “ah. better go back home while i won’t be seen” and she teases him that he’s not that good at not being seen 

anyway! so the next night they see each other again and she asks him even more questions and he even like, brings some stuff for her to see and shows it to her? you know? and she’s super excited about it and it’s hella cute

and it goes on for like a week or so until one day magnus brings raphael with him (did you REALLY think i wouldn’t bring him into this) because before he wasn’t sure if he could trust maia but after a while has passed and she clearly hasn’t told a soul and is obviously just interested in seeing magnus’ aquatic friends and hearing his stories, he figures it’s safe to bring him too. he just wants to introduce his new friend to his boy and it’s cute

raphael is understandably a little scared because there magnus is, befriending mundanes, and they fucking know how dangerous that can be but magnus is a stubborn unstoppable asshole when he wants to so he figures it’s best if he knows about it than if he doesn’t. but him and maia get along fine. eventually he ends up pointing at the sky and he says “i’ve always been fascinated by that, you know?”

and maia is like “what?” and raphael is like “the stars. we grow up in the deep sea, so we don’t really see them. what you call the ‘sky’, to me, has always been the surface. but then when i broke out... there was more. this huge, untouchable thing, a surface over the surface. and it’s so beautiful” and maia pauses for a while and she’s like “you know, if you are willing to teach me what you know about the deep sea, i can teach you about the stars” 

and magnus huffs like “and what do i get in return?” and she’s like “what do you want to learn about?” and he promptly goes, “the surface”

because magnus is a curious guy and he loves to learn and he’s always wanted to learn about the surface, but he only tried once and he was too scared that he would be found out, especially as he had no idea what mundane culture was like. and maia’s like well that’s easy to solve, i can show you around” and raphael is like no and magnus is like yes and maia is like yes and raphael is like then i’ll come too because he’s not letting magnus just wander around with mundanes

maia is like “it sounds like you are the papa bear in the relationship” and magnus is like “oh, don’t be mistaken my dear, if it were the other way around i wouldn’t let him” and raphael huffs but well, fine

so the following night they hang out some (i’m guessing maia has to bring them both clothes?) and maia shows magnus the town and magnus is in awe because wow there is so much stuff going on at nighttime. he never knew because the beach is relatively secluded, which is why he never expected to see maia there

the next night it’s raphael and maia’s turn to satisfy their curiosity so she teaches him the basics of the constellations and tells him a bit about astrology and like, a basic history of beliefs surrounding the stars and stuff like that. you know? Mundane Sky 101. in return raphael starts teaching her about the deep sea fishes and the mermaid’s knowledge of them as well. and they kinda bond because they are both fascinated by things that are out of their reach in many ways? and it’s like sweet and they smile at each other and stuff

then the next night it’s magnus’ turn, and it goes back and forth like this for a while. until one day magnus tells maia that he wants to visit during the day? see what it’s like and all. and she’s like well okay, i suppose you can... sleep at my place on friday and then we go out on saturday so i can have the day to show you around. and he’s like what is saturday. but they make a deal

raphael lowkey hates it during daytime because it’s so... bright and full of people (autistic raphael babey!) and noise and just, very different from what he’s used to, so he feels a little overwhelmed by it all. but magnus loves it. and it’s during one of their day adventures that magnus meets alec, because let’s be real, alec is just not a nighttime guy

and idk how exactly this would go but they hit it off and like you know. also at this point magnus knows quite a bit about mundane life so he can pretend swiftly and he’s always been smart and good at socializing so they’re like, on equal ground, just throwing this out there. and they get along well and soon magnus is flirting and, to raphael’s horror, alec is responding, so this is something that they all deal with now. magnus makes up something about being from the city and only coming on the weekends to explain why he isn’t around any other day and saturdays kind of become “magnus is going to see alec” time and raphael and maia are kind of just chilling on the corner of the cafe or something, talking

and there’s gonna be some coming out as a literal mermaid angst involved here but idk. maybe to be extra cliche alec goes visit maia saturday night and they get there just in time to see raphael and magnus going into the water and swimming away or something lmao. anyway alec is understandably shocked by the whole thing as his whole world has been tipped off its axis and he’s kind of freaking out but not because he’s like, afraid or something, just because it’s a lot to wrap his head around

so like idk the next morning alec waits for them at the beach with maia? or something? lmao and magnus almost has a panic attack but he tells him that he’s already seen and i guess from there alec becomes magnus’ guide to the mundane world? since he now officially knows. maia and raphael are not gonna leave the two of them together yet but now that he knows he has so many date ideas, things magnus has never seen before, you know. and magnus falls all that much harder because alec just... accepted that and wanted to show him things and it’s cute

and also maia and raphael get to spend more nights alone at the beach talking and looking at the stars and maybe raphael gets to show her things and it’s also cute. and they all fall in love and this is irrelevant but i love the mental image that magnus has a golden tail and raphael has a silvery tail, simply because the colors suit them respectively (even aesthetically, esp gold for magnus) and there is that whole... you know. gold and silver thing. idk i just love this

anyway magnus and alec start dating and so do maia and raphael and everyone is happy and cute and i guess magnus starts spending more and more time as a mundane and no idea how this would happen but fuck it lmao maybe maia and raphael study together and get into college and he gets to actually learn astronomy and she does groundbreaking research with maybe a little help as a marine biologist and idk what’s going on anymore this lore is a mess the end

.......will u stab me if i say lugina

No, I am not going to stab you, but I did write a lot of raw opinions and not all of them are pleasant. Just a forewarning.

Why I like them: I dunno, I guess his sword’s got a nifty ability and he’s memeable with him being the most asshole character, yet being the victim of unfortunate funny inconveniences like the boulders and shit. I also like how we develop him, if that counts.

Why I don’t: I swear, I could write at minimum a 2-page paper as to why Lugina Beil’s raw canon character genuinely frustrates the hell out of me. A lot of it being more directed at how he’s written and the implications of the world he’s written into and how it reacts to him rather than about him, the fictional character, if that makes sense. A lot of missed potential if I were to compare him to other characters of other series who started out similar to him, but developed more noticeably for the better over the course of their own plots. Like, the development of a story-prominent heroic-aligned selfish asshole character into someone who isn’t afraid to show he cares about his comrades and will lay down his life for them, yet still retains a certain “edge” to him is such a tried-and-true method to me when it comes to development satisfaction in my experience, that to see it not happen to a certain effect/extent is whiplash. The best comparisons that I can think of at them moment are like, Gajeel Redfox and Laxus Dreyar from Fairy Tail and Jean Kirstein from AoT. I’m serious, like, read up on them, then compare them to Lugina. Gajeel’s even a father-to-be in Fairy Tail rn, and he’s both ecstatic and very protective of his partner. I know I keep comparing Lugina to other characters of other series with their own developments, but still, like, I could also name a bunch of conjectures as to why Lugina doesn’t seem to go down a similar path. In short, now that it seems his tale is finished without so much as a follow-up, I dislike how the writers wrote Lugina more than Lugina the character himself.

Favorite episode (scene if movie): Lugina and BF1 Summoner vs Gazarva at the end of BF1.

Favorite season/movie: I liked him best during Arcs 2 and 3. More Arc 3.

Favorite line: “ [Liomerg] wasn't just talking about physical strength, he meant mental strength as well... Basically the only thing holding [Karl] back is himself. For all that he tries to handle things himself without depending on others, he doesn't have the resolve to see it through on his own. You call that kindness? That's just weakness!”--Estria, area after Shusui is killed by Mora. An “asshole’s got a point” moment.

Favorite outfit: BF2 Armor and that picnic art where he’s hogging all the spaghetti and Seria’s kicking him in the head for it. You know the one.

OTP: Really, it’s only with OCs, or in My Verse, where I flesh things out considerably between him and Yurika. If Alim bothered to fill in more about his actual relationship with Yurika, I could’ve actually put them here. I also ship him with Unlearning Toxic Masculinity, Some Fucking Therapy, and Having Better Character Development Based Of Other Examples I Know From Heroic-Aligned Characters Who Started Out Similar To Him, but we can’t have nice things in this fandom. Maybe him and Bertz if Bertz weren’t closeted or whatever his deal with Lugina is.

Brotp: Deadass, I don’t know. Maybe Karl post-BF1?

Head Canon: I still think he whittles wood as a hobby and one of his best projects is a full-scale replica of Sky Harbinger. And that he wholeheartedly and openly enjoys sea shanties. Oh, and that he definitely still invited BF1 Summoner and Tilith to his wedding. Hell, he explicitly said they had to come because no fucking way those two are gonna miss out on this. Plus, Tilith wouldn’t let him hear the end of it if he didn’t.

Unpopular opinion: I’ve said some piece of this in the one I did for Sasha, but wait! There’s more! And this is more of a general statement, but I really do think that there’s a lot left out/missing/glossed over in terms of BF2′s writing that would make things a lot more well-rounded. Plus, I think I’ve also already said some things that belong here under “Why I Don’t”. Also, only reason why Alim had Lugina be the only main cast member to start a family other than to show that he’s “developed for the better over 20 years” is because they made Karl and Paris still horny for BF1 Summoner and Seria...Seria, idk about. Probably applying the “No Guy Wants an Amazon” trope with her.

A wish: That Alim didn’t bull-rush Brave Frontier 2 and actually took efficient time to develop the story more so it’d have a longer shelf life? Then we’d at least be able to hopefully see more of the cast as a whole, and hopefully actually develop instead of what was probably squishing everything down and throwing in everything no matter how developed it was? Because BF2 seems more like an Afterword that’s trying to be a proper sequel. I’d wish for more between the games development, too and that Alim isn’t done working with Lugina and the rest of them.

An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Some implication/confirmation/allusion that Lugina cradle-robbed Yurika; any indication that there’s something off about their relationship beyond what’s traditionally considered healthy/normal married couple behavior plus what we’ve been given.

5 words to best describe them: Wish he was written better.

My nickname for them: Rat Man/Bastard. Potato Bastard.

Be-Dazzled Short Series: The Huntress

Original Series: Fairytail

Pairing: Natsu Dragneel, Juvia Lockser

Warning: Death

Kindly play ‘Stand By Me’ by Florence and the Machines

…

When the night has come and the land is dark

And the moon is the only light we’ll see

The world had descended into utter darkness. Steps hit the cold pavement – urgent and unfaltering. The light from the lampposts flickered out as quickly as hope in the warrior’s heart. The vibrant blue hair rode the wind as the girl rushed to the abandoned clock tower. She wanted to stop but she couldn’t. She was a predator, a supernatural huntress. Her prey was on the top of the clock tower and he was about to devour the world with his darkness. She couldn’t let that happen, not under her watch. But there was a whisper in heart, a small little mutter that was almost easy to miss behind the louder voice of duty ordering her to protect the world.

You can’t kill him.

A part of her wanted to listen to that voice. She wanted to stop, just go back and let the world cave in on her. She didn’t have that privilege. It was her duty to protect all of humanity from the dark powers that lurked the grounds of the earth. No matter what, no matter who that dark power may be.

No, I won’t be afraid

Oh, I won’t be afraid

Juvia arrived at the foot of the condemned clock tower. She used no other light other than the one strong sliver coming from the moon. The moon had always been her friend.

The lock on the broken-down wooden door was still there. The sharp blade of her scythe shattered the old lock. Juvia pushed the door open with her right shoulder, shoving her body into the narrow opening. The air inside the dilapidated building was damp and stinky. Mischief of rats and some other kinds of infestations built colonies on every nook and crany. It smelled like the air was trapped inside the building for a hundred years.

Cautiously, she ascended the spiraling staircase, careful not to make any unnecessary sound. With every measured step, the wooden planks creaked. One broke beneath her weight and her heart almost leaped thinking that gravity would pull her down to her death. Juvia pulled her foot out of the broken floor wood, scraping her skin, and jumped to the side, near the structure’s foundation. Her expert blue eyes gathered the littlest light the small window allowed in. Just a few more steps and Juvia could finally put an end to this. To him.

Juvia gathered herself and continued on her pursuit. She’d have to put an end to the monster on top of that tower. Juvia jumped unto the landing with a light bounce.

There he was perched at the edge of the roof, staring at the full moon, his back on her. Even in the darkness, her blue eyes remembered his figure. The moonlight dimmed the color of his hair but she knew it was cherry pink. He was Natsu – Natsu Dragneel, the first and only man she ever loved.

Slowly, Juvia approached the figure. She wasn’t planning on a sneak attack. That wasn’t in her nature. If she was going to kill Natsu, Juvia was going to face him head-on. Juvia stopped in her tracks. Kill Natsu. She felt her chest tightened. Kill Natsu Dragneel. Acid burned in the pit of her stomach, churning its way up until she licked the ugly and bitter taste of it. She saw his head turn half-way, looking at her, studying her. Waiting, just waiting.

The light hit that part of his face visible to her. It was him. It was really him. The rush of realization rooted Juvia on her place and all she could do was stare. And Nastu held her blue beseeching eyes hostage. The moment stretched on what felt life forever. Until, he stirred from his position, turned all the way to face her. By some habit or instinct, her feet started to move towards him and Juvia almost stumbled on her steps when the bright light of the moon revealed Natsu’s true form.

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall

Or the mountain should crumble to the sea

Red amphibian scales devoured half of his face and his skin. His once warm brown eyes turned into red cruel slits. Blue horrified eyes continued drifting down Natsu’s full figure. Half of his body had been transformed but the process wasn’t complete. Half of him was still human.

“Juvia.”

His voice was a soft rumble against the cold breeze. But the name – her name – morphed the slits back to his warm brown eyes.

“Do it. You’re the only one who can kill me.” He ordered, not taking his human eyes away from hers.

Once again, Juvia’s heart and mind were at war. Her whole body screamed at her to just plunge the sharp blade into his heart. Her brain convinced her that the figure standing before her wasn’t Natsu. It was a monster. A monster who was going to end the world as she knew it. Her grip on the pole of her scythe tightened. She fell on her attacking stance, ready for the kill. But even then, she couldn’t bring herself to do it, to do what her brain and her strong sense of duty ordered her to do. Because they were wrong, she wasn’t staring into the eyes of a monster, she was looking at Natsu.

A loud clank reverberated around Juvia, mixing with the crisp gush of the wind blowing her hair away from her face. Until, she could only hear her own heartbeat. That strong feeling that gripped at her, stung the back of her eyes. Juvia tore her gaze away from Natsu, ashamed of falling short from her duty.

When the words left her mouth, that’s when the stubborn tears began to fall.

“I can’t.” Her voice cracked, head hurting from the internal battle she was struggling to overcome. “I can’t do it.”

“I’m not who I am anymore.”

“No!” Juvia lashed out. She balled her hands into small fists and struck Natsu at the chest, one after the other. “Don’t say that!” she begged until her hitting sapped all her energy until she couldn’t stand on her own two feet. “You’re Natsu.”

Juvia fell on her knees, surrendering to the most powerful force on earth – gravity. The jolt of pain was the least of her problem. It was nothing compared to the pain that she was grappling with.

“Bring him back.” She managed to say despite the lump that was blocking her airways.

She felt a cold and sharp end poking under her chin. It dented her skin as one long claw forced Juvia’s head up to face him.

“Please, bring Natsu back.”

She didn’t care about anything anymore: not her mind, not her ancient duty, not the fact that she was vulnerable.

“Bring my Natsu back.”

She couldn’t even see through the flow of tears blurring her vision. But she felt the cold pole of her scythe and Natsu’s colder hand covered over hers.

“Just don’t forget,” his voice was a soft rumble in her ears. “I will always be with you.”

She felt the cold press of his lips against hers and she was rendered helpless. The predator, the protector, the huntress, she was helpless in the hands of her enemy. But she knew it wasn’t going to last long. Soon enough, this agony would end. All she could do was close her eyes and immortalize this moment in her heart. Then, Juvia’s eyes forced open when she heard that undeniable sound of blade buried into flesh.

Natsu plunged himself into her scythe.

Juvia immediately retrieved her blade but it was too late. Natsu’s human flesh began to shatter into ashes and all Juvia could do was watch as the existence of the man she loved slowly disappeared, carried by the wind into the silent night.

“I love you, Juvia.”

It must have been painful as his body gradually break apart into fading swirls of dust. Natsu didn’t show it. He smiled through the ordeal as his flesh washed away. That was how he wanted Juvia to remember him, smiling through his own tears, his own pain. Because he loved her very much. Too much that he took the responsibility away from her. He took his own life so she wouldn’t have to live with the guilt.

I won’t cry

No, I won’t shed a tear

“I love you, too.”

The wind gathered up Juvia’s blue hair. Natsu Dragneel had become nothing but a memory. His blood was fresh on her blade. She traced the crimson liquid, transferring some on her own fingers. The huntress rubbed her fingers together with her lover’s blood in between them. She felt the texture: like flowing water. How ironic, she thought. Water was a symbol of life. The blood on her fingers, on her blade, was nothing but a proof of life’s end.

Juvia looked down the silent ground below her. There was nothing, only darkness. She wiped one final tear away from her cold cheek. She promised herself it was the last tear she would ever shed.

She was a huntress and it was her duty to protect humanity from evil. Maybe, if she’d keep reminding herself that, she’ll hurt less.

Just as long as you stand

Stand by me

…

Writer’s Corner: AHHH! I seldom get a Navia request. If you follow my writings, you know how much I like the idea of Navia in a romantic sense and not just a brotp. hehe Hope you like it.

Also, you might be wondering what is it about that ‘Be-Dazzled Short Series’. I still don’t have anything concrete so just forget about it lol.

Matchup for @doctorgerth​

Here’s my info for ya, Hazel! - 23 - Heterosexual, into men! - INFJ - Cancer - Shoulder length light brown hair, dark green eyes, 5’9”, on the thick/curvy side - I’m assuming this is clothing? I’m usually a comfy cute/casual kinda style! Like shorts and a T-shirt or skinny jeans and a cute top! I wear baseball caps a lot when I’m too lazy to do anything with my hair lol - hobbies include writing (obviously lol), playing with my kitties, traveling, and watching cooking shows! interests include traveling (I just love going places), nature, animals, children, and eating! 😂 - uhhhh I have two cats lol and I can play clarinet - favorite food is pasta for sure, more specifically an Alfredo. my favorite color is light blue/pastel colors. my favorite animals include cats, foxes, and whale sharks! - I’m terribly afraid of heights and spiders. Also I’m a big people pleaser so I’m scared of letting people down. Though I’m going to be a teacher, I’m actually quite scared of speaking to large crowds lol little kids don’t bother me, but talking to a large crowd of people my age or older, yeah I don’t like that. I’ll do it if I have to of course, but not without internally panicking lol - My dream is actually in the works as I am becoming a teacher!! Other than this, I want to travel as much as possible while I can. If I can’t go out of the country, my dream is to visit all states in the continental US!! After getting everything I want to do done, I want to settle down somewhere, continue to teach, and have a family. ❤️ - As for extra stuff...as you can probably tell, I can be a bit overly emotional and sensitive, but that makes me very empathetic and loving! Introverted where I do like alone time but not to the point where I always want to be home by myself. I also love adventures like kayaking, or going to museums/zoos/aquariums, theme parks, or just traveling and experiencing new places! Very into stargazing and astronomy. I also love being on or near the water! I’m not the best at making friends just because I'm a lil awkward and anxious around new people. I prefer my small clique over having lots of friends, but I’m always friendly to strangers/others as long as they are friendly to me! I am definitely the mom of my friends, making sure they’re always safe, sound, and happy. People tend to compliment me on the fact that I’m easy to talk to. I may not ever have the best advice, but I am always willing to listen to someone vent, rant, or just talk about their feelings! I live for small get togethers with friends rather than large parties. I’m pretty low-maintenance, so I never expect fancy dates or expensive gifts! I’m always down for staying at home with movies and home-made dinners! Total cat mom, I love my and all fur babies. I’m also studying to be an elementary teacher so I love little kids! Big big heart for animals and children! All in all, I’m a really laid back person who loves deep, personal connections with people, and also my alone time every now and then! I tend to fall in love pretty easily and thus get my feelings hurt just as easy lol but when I fall in love I always fall head first, full force to make sure my s/o is happy! I definitely put my all when it comes to love in relationships. My love language is physical touch so my man (and friends to an extent) should expect lots of physical affection from me!! Kisses, hugs, cuddles, all of it! SOOOO excited for get a matchup from you, my darling!! Thank you for the opportunity! 💖

aaaa Coop! I am super hyped for this, I hope you like your match, I always love the wonderful ones you do 🐵! Although I will always ship Cooler, for a more realistic relationship I match you with...

OTP:  Marco The Phoenix 

Marco, as a pirate, is super adventurous, ready to take you on all sorts of adventures. But after all is seen and most adventures lived, he’s just as much ready to just settle down, start a family, whether it be furbabies, adopted kids or of your own. He takes after his pops, kids are definitely on the list!

You take care of him whenever he works too long and forgets to eat or sleep, he takes care of you whenever you feel like you need to unwind. Since you’re both easy to talk to and share the same kind of energy, you can just unwind by talking with each other, cuddling on the couch or in bed while you just relay your days onto each other, neither of you feeling like you’re unloading. 

You surprise each other with small tokens of appreciation, such as homemade lunches with sweet notes, surprise visits whenever you thought the other one was working. You never go sleep without saying goodnight, and never leave without saying good morning, even if its just a kiss on the forehead of whoever is sleeping. 

There are barely any fights or arguments. You both have certain maturity and know how to communicate with people. Whenever something does go wrong, you can settle for a mature discussion and even agree to disagree whenever it’s not a deal breaker. Willing to make compromises and working towards personal growth makes this relationship stable and healthy, even after the honeymoon phase is over, you still stay deeply in love, just because you connect so well. 

Since you’re both busy working, you respect each other’s alone time and privacy, but at the same time plan in moments that are meant for just the two of you. Whether it’s actual dates (hiking trip, visiting a cool island nearby, walks on the beach, visiting your favorite restaurant or bar) or just spending a quiet evening at home where you both temporarily forget about work and enjoy each other’s presence and company. It’s the best way to keep your stress level down, and establishes healthy communication and best of all, makes sure that you’re never too long without stolen kisses, nice cuddles and all other physical touches you need to feel completely relaxed and happy! 

Runner up:  X Drake

There are quite the few places where X Drake checks off all the marks you need: adventurous, love for animals, stargazing while being able to tell you all the names of the stars and constellations that you can see that day, a certain maturity... You could make quite the good couple! 

With Drake, most of your time would be spent outside, he doesn’t like being holed up too much. Hiking, being at sea, nightly walks under the night sky, walks around town, discovering new islands and doing some exploring... those will be your most frequent dates. 

Drake is honest and straightforward, no beating around the bush. He respects you, your needs and your personal space and will do everything in his power to make sure you are happy and comfortable even in the most difficult times. Those are bound to happen because of his lifestyle, but he will do his best to make sure you won’t suffer under it. 

why he is not your number one: Drake is.... not used to physical affection, to give a bit of an understatement. He gets flustered too easily and will tend to push you away, especially in public, but even in private he can get overwhelmed. Unfortunately, it may take a little too much time to get him used to your love language, you need someway to let out all that love! 

BrOTP: Bepo 

A little bit of an unusual friendship match, but Bepo and you have just the right amount of vibes in common to work out as great buddies! Both a little on the sensitive and softer side, you both are 100% there for each other when the other feels a little down or self-conscious. Comfort bear hugs? Incoming! 

Bepo and you can spend hours doing whatever activity you feel like doing, mostly something semi-active to keep both your minds and bodies occupied, while you each talk about your friends, your families and crews. You help him feel a little more confident in his abilities, and both of you are amazing in helping each other out when someone has come to you for advice but you need an outsider’s perspective. 

Even though you cannot spend an insane amount of time together generally because Bepo will 100% follow Law and wherever he goes, the moments you are able to meet up and catch up are worth it so much. It’s like your social batteries get reset, and you’re ready to take on everything in your life that was bothering you once again!

A smile lit up Finn's face, made all the dopier when Nemo kissed his cheek. He felt like he could melt into sea foam when he did that. He reached out to squeeze the other's hand. He would love to be able to go shopping with Nemo. Nothing inspired him more than spending time with him. Even if the theme was kind of lousy (in Finn's opinion), he was sure that together they could pick something out that could look great on them.

"That sounds g-g-great Nemo. I'd love to c-coordinate with you too. That would b-be super fun," Finn admitted. He loved being able to plan out their looks together and dress up together. It was something he'd always enjoyed. And he wanted to do that again with his best friend. "How have things b-b-been going for you lately anyway? I feel like we've b-b-both been pretty busy."

@justkeepdancing-nemo

Hey Nemo, Today | BFFs

[glompcat]

Ace!!

Why I like them: Why do I love Ace? ACE MCSHANE?????? The chemistry prodigy who got super into explosives after neonazis killed her best friend and was eventually expelled from school for blowing up the art room? A character who HATES her mother and is allowed to retain that hate, even when the Doctor (a bastard) does everything possible to make her reconsider her feelings for the woman?

Why I don’t: Sophie Aldred is amazing and I love her, please please don’t take this as me in any way saying otherwise, but she was 25 when Ace was introduced in Season 24 and 27 when the show ended, while Ace was 16. She’s a great actress and did her best to sell it, but she very obviously was an adult woman dressed as a child. I can’t help but wonder what Ace’s character arc would have looked like if she really came across as her proper age. How the Doctor’s manipulations would have felt if we saw Seven doing that stuff to an actual 16 year old.

Favorite episode (scene if movie): Survival, you’ve gotta love Ace’s adventures with her furry girlfriend (who is Lisa Bowerman lol)

Favorite season/movie: Season 26 really was a great one for confronting Ace’s past, in large part because just about every serial in it was all about the Doctor forcing Ace to confront her past.

Favorite line: This is hard to pin down, as Ace has so many great lines and moments. Plus if you open things up to the DWEU it gets even harder. That said I feel really partial to the way she talks about running forever in Survival. I also think Ace professing a desire to run forever, even if it is tied to the effects of the cheetah planet, transitions perfectly into her calling the TARDIS her home (as she stands in her actual neighborhood in London during the right time) and the Doctor’s final lines of Classic Who?

ACE: I felt like I could run forever, like I could smell the wind and feel the grass under my feet and just run forever. DOCTOR: The planet's gone, but lives on inside you. It always will. ACE: Good. And the Master? DOCTOR: Who knows? Where to now, Ace? ACE: Home. DOCTOR: Home? ACE: The TARDIS. DOCTOR: Yes, the TARDIS. (The Doctor and Ace link arms and walk off together) There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, where the sea's asleep and the rivers dream. People made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea's getting cold. Come on Ace, we've got work to do!

Favorite outfit: 

OTP: Love all of Ace’s girlfriends of the week over the course of the show. You know, Li Shou Yuing, Karra, Gwendoline Pritchard, Mags, Susan Q... even Mel, even though I am aware Mel is supposed to be in her 20s to Ace’s 16 years of age (but since Bonnie Langford is two years younger than Sophie Aldred it’s really damn hard for me to take that age difference seriously, especially when Ace calls Mel Doughnut).

Brotp: I recently made my way through the Hex audios up to Death In the Family, and spent the whole time laughing my ass off at how every single time he worked up the nerve to tell Ace that he wanted to date her she’d call him her brother before he was able to.

Head Canon: Brax’s mind wipe is fading away and with enough time she is going to recall everything. Why else was her very first instinct upon seeing Seven in Dark Universe to call Romana and wait for orders from the CIA on what to do next?

Unpopular opinion: Ace is queer and it is actually criminal that the DWEU refuses to acknowledge that fact. We know, because the writers are not at all shy about it, that when she was on TV the writers wanted to inject as much lesbian subtext into her scenes as they possibly could, not just in random interviews - on the damn Season 26 bluray set Rona Munro jokes with the other writers about Ace being a lesbian! It’s quite the Bluray feature. Yet in all the decades that have followed not a single book, audio or comic has written Ace as being queer. There are series that are obsessed with making everything as dark and gritty and adult as possible where Ace is a time-traveling-motorcycle riding space cop fucking dudes left and right, and yet no acknowledgement anywhere of her blatant on screen queerness. How the fuck did this happen???????

A wish: LET ACE BE QUEER YOU COWARDS

An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Hah hahahahaha do you know what kind of horrific nonsense Ace has already been dragged through? Truly there is nothing I could think of and state with confidence that it hasn’t already happened to her in some story or another.

5 words to best describe them: Genius, Stubborn, Righteous, Pyromaniac, surprisingly well adjusted for someone essentially raised by the Doctor.

My nickname for them: Ace. McShane (mainly because she did go through that phase where she was only going by that name). That’s it. She has no other names other than that, and I am so glad that she got over that phase at the very start of At Childhood’s End where she was using that other name that she never liked to begin with.

ship tag dump (will update as i go along, these are just the ones i think of/see the most or what i expect will be on my blog)

[daylighthelps]

Below the cut you will find #258 various song lyrics for otp/brotp/notp tags. I started this over a year ago, forgot about it and stuck it in my drafts. I was going to add to it but I’ve lost all inspiration for that, so, here you go. Enjoy.

add just a few too many xs and os.

a fire blows when you speak.

am i still enough?

and i know you know i on’t know which way to go to lose you.

and i’m lying alone in my bed wondering why love makes me feel like i’m dead.

any minute i’ll walk through that door.

anytime you need a friend i’m gonna be by your side.

a teardrop in your palm.

baby i don’t think i can love you.

baby let’s don’t call this love.

baby you gave me a taste now i’m wasted.

call me out just to get a little higher.

call me up; not this time.

call your bluff; not this time.

can you hear me calling?

come on skinny love what happened here?

could you ever love a man like me?

could you give me a shot and i’ll work with what i’ve got?

does the sight of me wanting you drive you crazy?

do i deserve this? okay maybe yeah.

do i have your love?

do i still turn you on at all when i kiss you baby?

don’t know what you were thinking; you were doing.

don’t try to tell me she ain’t worth it.

do you have to let it linger?

everything about you stops me from loving you.

every time i let you stay the night.

get a little taste of what i’m into.

girl you got me like a bug bite and now you’re under my skin.

girl you hit me harder than a freight train right in the middle of my membrane.

give me something i never know.

give to me your leather; take from me my lace.

gonna kiss you in the daylight out on the beach.

gonna take more than just time.

hearing your voice i’m overjoyed.

here i come.

here’s to the mondays; watching all the cars on the freeway.

here’s to us.

honey i’m onto your tricks.

how can i say this without breaking?

how wonderful life is with you in the world.

i ain’t got a thing to do; can i sit here next to you?

i can hold onto you somehow in this burning house.

i could be yours.

i don’t care what they say anymore.

i don’t know what i would do if i was without you and even though i am i’m always thinking about you.

i don’t think they’d understand it.

i don’t want them to know the way i loved you.

i don’t want this to end.

i don’t want to keep a secret.

i’d wait up for you almost every night.

i called you at home.

i cannot overstate it; i will be overjoyed.

i can’t cope.

i can’t forget.

i can’t wait until the next time we meet.

i could take you back but people don’t really change.

i feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup.

if i can’t have you get out get out get out get out of my heart.

i find it hard not to look your way but i get in what i can.

if i should lose my way; give up or go astray; please let me know.

if you could get by trying not to lie things wouldn’t be so confused.

if you miss me kiss me one last time at least for old time’s sake.

if you want; we’ll share this life.

i got it so so bad.

i hope i get to see you.

i just can’t let you go.

i knew when only you and i were standing here.

i knew with you to light my nights somehow i’d get by.

i know all your secrets and i promise you i’m gonna keep them.

i know i did you wrong.

i know just what’s going down when you come around.

i know the sun is beating down wherever you may be.

i know you miss me just like i miss you.

i know you’re out there somewhere.

i know you used to love me but that was yesterday.

i know you used to love me in every way.

i’ll be there when you are feeling clueless.

i’ll make sure you don’t forget me again.

i’ll see you in the evening.

i’ll stay here with you until this dream is gone.

i loved and i loved and i lost you and it hurts like hell.

i’m drowning in these memories.

i’m from the lonestar state; i’m ready to bring you in.

i’m gonna find a way to make you mine.

i’m gonna pack up my bags and i’m gonna go away.

i’m gonna run to you.

i’m gonna seal your fate; make you pay for all of your sins.

i’m gonna show you.

i’m halfway there.

i’m hiding and hoping my face ain’t too red.

i’m hurting so bad ‘cause you don’t treat me right.

i’m in so deep.

i might’ve thought that we were one.

i’m never far behind you.

i’m not trying to fall.

i’m not your beauty queen.

i’m not yours baby you’re not mine.

i’m packing up my bags and i’m going far away.

i’m sheltered by your heart.

i need a sign to let me know you’re here.

i need you to love me.

i need you today.

it doesn’t matter if we change their minds.

i tell myself don’t get caught too deep cause i know by now you’re not coming for me.

i tell myself move along.

i tell myself you were all wrong but i know by now wrong was right for me.

it must have been good but i lost it somehow.

it must have been love but it’s over now.

i try to let you go.

it’s been awhile since i saw your face; maybe it’s helped me move on.

it’s hard to lose the chosen one.

it’s not me; it’s you.

it’s probably the end.

i should’ve known better; now it hurts much more.

is that the way we stand?

i swear these words are true.

i swore i would be true and honey so did you.

i think you’re lovely enough to put up with it all.

i thought of you and where you’d gone.

i thought nothing could go wrong but i was wrong.

i thought the world of you.

i took and broke your heart and your world was torn apart.

it won’t take too long for my love to coax.

i’ve been sleepwalking too close to the fire but it’s the only place that i can hold you tight.

i’ve had my eye on you all night.

i wake up lonely.

i want a reason for the way things have to be.

i want you back here can’t you see?

i will tell you secrets nobody knows.

i wish you said something mean made me glad that you said goodbye.

i wish you were a ship that was guided by the touch of my lips.

i won’t give up if you don’t give up.

i won’t throw it all away with everything.

keep your hands off of me.

lately i’ve been going crazy ‘cause i want you baby.

laugh a bit too long at the worst of my jokes.

let me be the one to make it right.

let me come over.

let’s go another round til the sky is falling down.

love isn’t all that it seems; i did you wrong.

maybe we can get a drink and just catch up.

maybe you’re scared you’ll be let down.

midnight eyes oh you came as a surprise.

moving in for a hug like you don’t know i’m coming undone.

my baby’s already got all of my love.

my best friend til the end no pretend.

my gift is my song and this one’s for you.

never once a lie not until tonight.

new adventures on the way.

no matter what i’ll get there.

now all you do is just treat me cold.

now it’s said and done and i’m sorry.

of her i’m awfully fond.

our language is sacred though people try to solve it.

out of all of the places in this little town you had to come walking in here and sit down.

play me like boy you’re never gonna get me.

please refrain from opening skies.

right where we belong.

saw you shining in the starlight.

see in the reflection the same single man that had taken you for granted.

see you at a party and you look the same.

send me a postcard though you live so close.

she ain’t you.

she may be pretty; she’s something new; but that means nothing.

she’s got your exact same zodiac sign.

she’s got your hair and she’s got your eyes.

she’s the only one who can.

shoot me that look i’ve been dying to see.

since we’ve been over been trying like crazy to get you out of my head.

so hard to see the similarities.

so i won’t make my worst mistake; turn around and let you go.

so sweet that you make me sick.

spending all my waking time forgetting about you.

suddenly my choice is clear.

sure i might be rude but it’s just your attitude.

take the picture off the wall it doesn’t make me happy no more.

that girl’s my best friend.

that smile on your face like summer.

there’s an air of silence in the bedroom and all around.

there’s no need to play pretend.

the two of us went up in smoke.

the summer’s not hot til you show up.

the summer’s not hot without you.

the summer won’t start without you.

the way that your hand keeps touching mine.

think about the truth; all i gave to you.

think you’re all about me but i’m all about you.

this is more than just a little thing baby for sure.

touch me now.

true love doesn’t cost a thing.

trying to take what’s lost and broke and make it right.

turn the lights down and let me show you it’s true.

up in the morning tangled in sheets.

was it just a game to you?

we could be a rumor; never be sure.

we don’t need to keep it hush.

we ended right.

we finally found our way.

we’ll laugh at all the shakers and movers.

we play the moment on repeat.

we’re klutzy but so lucky that i always have you to catch me.

we’re partners in crime.

were you lying all the time?

whatever gets heavy give it up now.

when you told me you’d leave i felt like i couldn’t breathe.

when i’m halfway to your heart you have to let me now.

when i walked into your house i knew i’d never want to leave.

when nobody understands you well i do.

when the love starts burning you’ve got to do what’s right.

why can’t you be cold like any good ex would do?

why can’t you look off somewhere if you catch me staring at you?

why don’t you stay?

why would you tell me that you’d call me up sometime?

why you gotta tell me that i’m looking good?

why you wanna make me keep wanting you?

why you wanna show up in an old t-shirt that i love?

wish that we could go back in time; i’d be the one you thought you’d find.

would you mind closing the bedroom door?

you already have my heart.

you always really knew i just wanna be with you.

you and me oh yeah we’re seamless.

you and me together; take on the world forever.

you call me up when you’re feeling uninspired.

you can’t hear me cry.

you caused my heart to bleed.

you could be my dirty secret.

you could leave a toothbrush at my place.

you could meet me in the backseat.

you cut the ties with knives of lies.

you did not break me.

you don’t have to rush.

you don’t have to try too hard.

you don’t know her like i do.

you don’t know what we’ve been through.

you don’t treat me no good no more.

you got me wrapped around your finger.

you know i’ll find you.

you know i’ll never stop.

you know i love you just like you love me.

you know i love you so but you’re so mean to me baby.

you know i’m such a fool for you.

your blade; it might be too sharp.

you’re just lucky that you met me.

you’re only getting better.

you’re seeing how she’s not your type.

you’re standing there in your underwear and my t-shirt from the night before.

you’re stuck with me your whole life.

you’re the reason i jumped in the pool; ‘cause you’re so hot that i gotta get cool.

your heart fits like a key into the lock on the wall.

yours are the sweetest eyes i’ve ever seen.

your time came with the rain but now it’s dry.

you said that you weren’t alone.

you still owe me a reason.

you got me so so good.

you walk through the grass with my shadow in the past.

you were right on time.

you won’t see me fall apart.

Finn felt once again that he was so lucky to be able to be close friends with Nemo. To consider him, in a way, to be his other half somehow despite how far apart their cultures were supposed to be. Finn was a being of the sea and Nemo the sky, but somehow... somehow they had an understanding that transcended. He could never explain it to anyone else. It was who they were.

A smile spread across his face. "Of course. You c-c-can always tell me any-anything." Finn would support Nemo no matter what. That was as sure to him as breathing. He would be there for him however he could. His smile only widened as Nemo kissed him. Just another nice thing they shared that made his heart fill with warmth. "I'm always here for you," Finn added, and he leaned in to kiss Nemo just once more. "I love you. Things always look b-b-bad but... the sun always c-comes up eventually. Things get b-brighter."
