"You make me feel as though I'm seeing the world in colour for the first time," Ferrus says softly, warm firelight making his arms glitter, golden-bronze instead of silver. He gazes at the fire for a long moment, mirror-like eyes nearly glowing; he sighs deeply, relaxing into the chair, your body moves with his, sliding a little further into his lap by the rising of his knees. He wraps his arm around you, metal warm against you as he drapes it around your waist, the other resting on your thigh, a comforting weight as he strokes your leg.

Ferrus dips his head, pressing a gentle kiss to your brow, a fond smile on his lips making his cheeks dimple. "I am so lucky to have found you," he murmurs, and then, even quieter, like a raw secret, "I love you," he whispers into the top of your head, lips brushing barely enough for you to feel it. "Rest, my Quartz," he says as you lean into his chest, his hearts thudding comfortingly under your ear, torso warm against your cheek, "I'll be here when you wake,"

wanted to share something good!!!

In early 2022 I moved to Sydney from Perth at 16 to get away from an abusive family and have a fresh start. Less than 2 months later I lost my job because I started having seizures, and it got to the point where I was having ambulances called almost every time I left the house. I had to stop studying, I was deemed medically unfit to work, and I became homeless as a result. I was rejected from almost every youth crisis organisation in the city because my seizures made me an "insurance liability" or they just didn't know how to or didn't want to deal with it; I lived in the one youth refuge that did accept for me 3 weeks before they told me I had to leave because I was becoming more and more wheelchair-reliant and they didn't "have capacity to accomodate that" (despite initially telling me that my disabilities were not an issue and I could stay for at least 3 months), and I became homeless again. My NDIS was rejected. I finally got a room in a sharehouse with 8 other people in October last year, but my room was up 2 flights of stairs and I was having to physically drag myself up and down everytime I needed the kitchen, the bathroom, anything. I was watched almost every time and it was humiliating and horrible and I hated it but at least I had somewhere to sleep.

Yesterday I picked up the keys to my own semi-accessible apartment. In just over 2 weeks I will be 3 years clean of self harm. My seizures appear to be decreasing and I've reenrolled in uni (half-time). Next week I have my final assessment for my DSP (australian verson of SSDI) application and then that should come through soon.

I am so proud of myself. I don't want to jinx it, but I feel like I've finally gotten through it. I can breathe now. I did this myself, and no one can take that from me. Reconciling where I am right now with younger me who genuinely didn't think I'd make it past age 14 has me in tears.

I’ve had the WORST fucking week, first my partner and I broke up, and now some evil cunt is doxxing me for being trans…might burn her house down

[lxnarphase]

hey you’re sexy

JULIA UR SEXY IM KISSING U ON THE MOUTH !!

[simplepotatofarmer]

despite how awful things have been, i'm glad i kept speaking up because the outcome with bob mowzie was wonderful. i'm really pleased he was so open and listened.

like, it can't erase the horrendous shit that was said to a lot of us or sent to people speaking up, but it makes it worthwhile to get a good outcome.

i can’t believe the bruins lost after my radiator was leaking to the apartment below me and i diagnosed myself with pcos

[inkskinned]

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!

do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

Dick, holding Wally’s hand while they lie in bed: God I love this bed. God I love this house. And you. Especially you.

Voice: How domestic.

Wally: God?

Damian in his Robin suit, holding his bleeding side: No. It’s me. May one of you please direct me to the nearest medical kit.

been so full of tension for months its been my default, but i was just sitting here and then i exhaled consciously. and in that second i realised that for the first time in ages i am happy and relaxed and i have time to do what i want and space to actually think. and not to mention feeling so truly cared for by a person that i feel like i can say anything.

[whatkindofnameisella]

can you believe that we have fanfiction. that we have websites dedicated to fanfiction. that there is a place that you can go and read tens, hundreds, thousands and thousands of pieces of writing that strangers have made. people who are not "writers". people who come home at the end of the day and have feelings and say, i am going to put that into words. i am going to share those words. short, long, sweet, sad, horny, funny, wonderful words. we are all just human and we all love to make and remake and share that with others. can you believe that.

[trekkiesagainstchastity]

It doesn't matter if that fic has been in your drafts for years and is now self-indulgent to the point of parody. If Steven Moffatt is allowed to do it professionally, you are allowed to do it for fun.

My light blue Switch Lite with my Zelda Switch Bag, And my Disney Dream Light Valley game, Annnnnnnd my ID and green and a Christmas bag was stolen from 681/618 Princess St Tim Hortons back in December. ----------

I miss my DDV game. And my white xbox more because it has my game cloud. (Thank you xbox) I'd like to get a laptop so I can go thru DDV and Fable again. If it happens, it happens. -----------

It's been nice to meet with local doggies and see some people from the past. And metro has cannoli's for $2.39. (Big ones, not the mini ones)

------- Also,

Someone made my bear an outfit this morning, And yknow I miss having that much heart, I miss wanting life that way, Not only for putting something together, But the math/science/engineering brain that remembers the steps, I miss wanting to know the steps again. I'd build a lego fort with a heated pool in it and hide somewhere away from people in the north, and I'd be content with life. I could do it on my own and I would be content. (Orville spins his "content" jokes in his death and in the spelling and pronunciation of my name. And I remind my loved ones its probably for the best I leave/I am gone)
