#cold comfort for change

[lilyliveredlittlerichboy]

me playing landslide: this is about grief

me playing wish you were here: it's about grief

me playing angels: this one's also about grief

me writing my own songs: yeah at the core really all of these are about grief

me playing the guitar in the first place: yup, grief again

me, just going through life: yeah this is really just about grief isn't it. we live and we breathe and we experience and we must die and all things must come to an end. really all of life is just about grief and grief is really about love and how finite it all is. it's all grief. all of it

...... lads i may have gotten myself a grief shaped hammer or something 😶

since it seems I’m one of like 3 people that like minsc/jaheira, let me see if I can recruit more to my cause:

- while he was trapped in stone, jaheira visited him all the time, openly weeping and speaking to him

- even while under the tadpole’s control, minsc only listened to “jaheira”

- when minsc thought “jaheira” died, he was inconsolably angry

- jaheira was willing to risk EVERYTHING to get minsc back. nothing mattered to her more. she threatened the emperor - and the rest of your party for that matter - and screamed “help my friend!”

- when jaheira talked about how she had to leave him behind, she explained it was the logical thing to do…but she said she hated herself for it because minsc never would have left her, ever

- minsc referred to her as his wychlaran - a wise woman of rasheman, bonded to a berserker bodyguard for life. there is no higher title or deeper bond in all of rashemaar custom

- jaheira disagreed with this, to which he said “the title matters not. only this: when minsc does as minsc does, and charges in to make a mess, jaheira does as jaheira does, and saves us all anyway”

- minsc knows her children and they know him

- jaheira smiles the most around him

- they love each other

cant even remember wht subgenre of acute mental illness i was living with at 18 which gave me the ability to write ashara the way i did but im so glad i went thru that shit bc a solasmancer who acts essentially as a microcosm of the present day world and reflects the exact problems solas hates so much about it but still somehow comes to love is. objectively insane. and here she is 7.5 years later and about 3x worse

Guys i freaking LOVE james he’s my favourite character of all time guys.

I LOVE THIS FLAVOUR OF JAMES WHERE HE GETS OVER HIS ISSUES!! YOUR PARENTS MAY NOT LOVE YOU BUT SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE DO!!

[captain-lonagan]

not to be that guy but fr ankarna and cassandra are So much more marketable as a pantheon im dead fucking serious. doubt and the unknown? good and important, but in Marketing you have to add a bunch of shit to clarify intention like "stepping off the path and into the unknown is the first step to finding a better one" and "sometimes doubt and mystery is the path to the truth" and like. thats a lot to tack on. BUT if the goddess of Doubt and the goddess of New Beginnings are a package deal, BADA BING BADA BOOM you dont need to add a fuck ton of mortal interpretation to the divinity!

here is the doubt and mystery to lead you from your old ways! here is the dawn of the new ways you'll find!

it is good to be comfortable in the dark, but it is much more palletable to have a promise of eventual light

i have yet to make a follow up / update on eden's demeanor / personality post 2.1 story, but let me say this : i do stand firm on my hc of her being more distant ( and even standoffish ) with those she doesn't know well if our muses meet after or during penacony story. however, if you see eden being more casual / less-guarded with certain muses ( whether they're from penacony or not ), it's likely because 1) it's a relationship that was developed prior to penacony, 2) i know the mun well or 3) it's plotted / circumstance-based. please don't assume that eden would be friendly or puppy-like with any muses like she used to be prior to penacony story release.

my nightmares are so fucked up because almost every single one of them start out as dreams and then suddenly my worst anxieties are coming true, or i’m on the cusp of death or someone i care about is killed before me or wherever i was is actually a plot to kidnap me ect ect like REM why you gotta do me like that

This evening my dad took my brother and me out to dinner. We went to one of the area’s best Chinese restaurants. The servings are huge. Three of us split two entrees and some appetizers. It felt like a bargain (for my dad, because he paid!).

Afterwards we went over to the nearby brewery. It was pleasantly busy. This 10-ounce dog was at the table next to us. For a pet that could easily be accidentally squished like a bug he was pretty brave, hopping around an aisle trying to get more people to pet him.

Behind the dog is a guy wearing slides. It’s 34° outside. What if he gets a flat tire on the way home? That will be cold. I’d like to see what he wears this weekend when we’re supposed to get 4 to 8 inches of snow.

[evansbby]

Oh I think you don’t like Andy bc he offers stability and comfort. Steady job, house, normal family and you don’t want that

Normal family?!?? Andy?!?! I beg to differ hahaha. Unless you call raising a murderer normal!

But of course all i want is stability and comfort! I just want that with ARI 🥲🥲🥲

[itsahotminuteinbetween]

i just noticed (thought that has been plaguing me for two weeks) that I accidentally made witch eclipse too emotional and now I have to rewrite (reverse thought process cuz the only thing written was a timeline) his personality to make him a little less uh that

Me: I'm fine about my autism now btw, like I've come to terms with my fixated interests, limited tolerances and social inabilities. The alienation it brings is not ideal but it's just a reality I've gotta deal with now that I know it's just a part of who I am. I mean, it's not like an awkward conversation is gonna ruin anyone's life, is it? We'll both move on from it eventually. This is fine!

Also me: physically unable to watch beyond the first word of the first question of The Assembly because oh my god what if someone says something awkward or controversial or someone can't make themselves understood people are gonna get mad and scream about it online and I will freeze up and be stuck in the backlash forever I don't know how to handle conflict AT ALL let's just hide in the corner behind the sofa instead wait what if I became a hermit actually yeah yeah yeah that sounds good let's do that
