#but trying to stay positive

[pose4photoml]

Wish me luck this morning- Received an email at work yesterday requesting all local coworkers to come into the office and the ones in other states be on zoom for 10 am for an exciting announcement and then will have lunch after.

One I’m nervous about having so many people in here at one time. (I’m used to everyone on zoom meetings) Then nervous if the exciting news is really? I mean management maybe happy but does that means that those who aren’t managers will be happy?

Took my anxiety meds and stopped at Starbucks 😉

So bad news is, my job is no longer due to budget. The good news is I can write that book just not in the way I wanted to. The better news is I have friends who can edit!

(AKA I spend an unnecessary amount of time editing)

A sketch of Replica Leo immediately after his EPF Interview in this scene, but before being reunited with his brothers here. I hope to dive more into the fallout of such a defining moment in Leo's young life and how it would go on to affect him once I get my Patreon up. In the meantime. Enjoy the little angsty sneak peek.

To all my creatives out there; you’re not a flop because your artwork didn’t get 100 likes, or because your video didn’t hit the 1k view mark, or you lost a few followers. You didn’t get ‘worse’ and people don’t suddenly hate what you’re putting out there. Sometimes you just get less engagement, but it’s not because you’re making ‘bad’ art!

Keep creating and making things YOU enjoy! You have to be your own biggest fan!

god the way ghost’s voice drops when he tells soap, “you’ll need to improvise to survive”

before that, everything he says is steady but when he acknowledges that soap’ll have to do something outside his skill set, something he intimately knows to be difficult, his voice wavers. he does the same when he says, “welcome to guerrilla warfare”; it’s sombre and serious in a way he doesn’t act for the rest of the mission. if you read into it enough, he almost sounds apologetic; like he knows exactly what soap’s about to go through and wishes he didn’t have to

he keeps soap going; poking at him and making jokes, giving him tips and asking about his progress. he never lets him stop and take a second to think bc he knows the moment he does is the moment it'll all hit him; the betrayal, the pain, the fear, the deaths, all of it will drown him and if that happens, soap won't make it

he needs him to be a soldier through and through and he knows this is one of the worst kinds of battlefields you could end up on

and the only times he slips is when he acknowledges that fact

it happens again when he says, "tryin' to get you here alive and in one piece". his jovial dark humour facade drops for just a moment when he has to face the potential reality of losing soap. then he tries to pick it back up again with, "one of us has to survive to tell the tale"; completely discounting himself as a survivor to try and rally soap and make him think it’s all down to him

and soap does the same thing

when he's calling out for ghost on the radio, he's tentative, testing the frequency, then when he doesn’t get a response, he grows desperate; "ghost, this is 7-1, do you copy?"

then when ghost answers, he smooths out his voice; he hides the pain, the fear, and no matter what response you give to ghost asking if he’s injured, soap brushes it off (“i’m good”, “what’s the difference?”, “i’m not a medic”). soap decides it’s in ghost’s best interest to hide the extent of his injuries

he doesn’t know where ghost is, if he’s secure, if he has any weapons; he doesn’t even know if he’s in las almas until he says, “there’s a church, i’m headed to it”. for all he knows, he could’ve run in the complete opposite direction. if ghost knows he’s hurt, then his attention would be split between his own survival and soap’s

and soap, who lets himself be poked and prodded towards the church, needs to hide his own doubts. maybe he needs ghost to believe he'll make it so he himself can believe it ("what are my odds?" "don't make me bet against you", "think i'll live that long?" "probably not")

he all but begs ghost to tell him he'll get through it and if he knows just how bad off he is, maybe he'll change his mind. maybe he'll think he won't make it to the church

maybe he'll leave him alone for good

"you injured?"

"i’m good"

"let's find out how good you are"

No matter what happens, promise me you won’t do anything irreversible. Live to spite, live to show them they were wrong. Live for the child crying for you on the opposite side of the world. Live for yourself and live for living. Never give up. I’m waiting for you to come home.

Psst! If you think this helped you, this is a link to my other motivational poster: https://www.tumblr.com/lola-legendary/766475214507900928/better-a-dead-hero-than-a-living-coward-but-best?source=share

Don’t feel pressured to reblog, but it would be best!

seeing people act like tommy cutting the date short is some kind of grand foreshadowing from the writers signalling their relationship is doomed and not just buck making a mistake and briefly suffering mild consequences is infuriating. did we perhaps babygirlify this man a bit too hard? sometimes your blorbo screws up and they deserve to be left on the sidewalk until they’ve worked some shit out.

honestly it’s probably a good job bvddie hasn’t happened because good lord what would this place become the second there was any kind of conflict in their relationship?

[arts-of-berdengguhit]

I just wanna stay positive with the incoming update. Let's rejoice! A happy ending 🥰🙏

cw health talk / (；′⌒`) 💦

long story short; i'm on day 6 of not being able to breathe properly. i started with some lung issues (bronchi), and now have some throat issues as well (feels partially closed/swollen?)

i posted this to twt as well - i'm sorry to bring something personal up, i know it'll probably be fine, but in case of emergency, i don't want to just disappear for a while without warning ( ≧ ﹏ ≦)
