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 😶
#couldn't possibly have anything to do with how my friends death anniversary is less than a week away#it's been five years. five entire years of not knowing how to deal with this grief#it's just bubbling up under the surface and touching everything im sorry.#a lead role in a cage.#trade your heroes for ghosts etc#hot ashes for trees!! hot air for a cool breeze!!!#cold comfort for change#IT'S ABOUT GRIEF OKAY#it's about grief. all of it. all of it#i just. i really do. just#wish you were here#i need a tag for my own rambles#learning guitar#grief

replaying mystic messenger is so crazy because why am i gentle parenting these grown men and teaching them how to handle their feelings
#mystic messenger#mysme#jumin han#saeyoung choi#this post is mainly about those two#i get so mad whenever jumin enters a chatroom like get out of my face im not joking I DO NOT LIKE YOU#like i get it blah blah blah CEO with a cold heart trope and you melt his icy exterior But im so tired...#i don't want to explain workers rights to him#or... basic human rights actually#when he goes “jaehee i need you to work overtime again” and my face contorts in disgust and horror as a sitcom laugh track plays in the bac#also seven's route is so frustrating#like there's genuine reasons for him acting cold and whatever and i get it#but i actually dont want to watch you break a robot cat and then change ur pfp to a dark and broody photo of yourself#I ALSO CANT TALK TO ZEN IM SORRY I HATE HIM SO MUCH#zen lovers do not hate me... i am just a simple person#at one point in seven's route he was like “omg there's an explosive in the apartment? i should send a pic of myself to comfort you...”#I CANNOT HANDLE YOU GO LOG OFF YOUR PHONE#sorry wow im really into this game#i played it four years ago and now it's come back to me#also all of my points are nullified by the fact that saeran is my favorite#doing his route is like pulling teeth and eating socks#i say that with love

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
#bg3#baldurs gate 3#bg3 jaheira#bg3 minsc#jaheira x minsc#they WOULD DIE FOR EACH OTHER#I don’t personally think they’d ever come right out and say their feelings#but they just like hold hands sometimes and jaheira stares daggers at anyone that looks at them#their bond is so deep that feelings wouldn’t even change much#I just imagine jaheira waking up in a cold sweat#having just dreamt about leaving him#and she feels like she’s just been drenched in ice until she looks over and sees he’s sleeping contently under his tent#and silently she walks over and lays down next to him and he wakes up immediately because he can sense she needs something#‘are you alright?’#‘hold me you fool.’#and sleepily minsc just pulls her into his chest#the feeling of ice running through her veins melts because he is warm and comforting and familiar#anyways.#I just think they’re neat#and I want others to think so too#I don’t think they have a ship name yet#maheira?#jinsc?#idk tell me your thoughts#my post

Sometimes your life feels like it’s over and then you’re 6 years older in the blink of an eye.
#sentimental story time in the tags#this is about an ex friendship that changed me as a person forever and my current best friend who has also changed me#I still remember the time my ex friend and I held hands but they got uncomfortable and dropped mine pretty quickly#which ofc is perfectly fine yknow#but I really wanted to keep holding their hand because I was and am horrifically touchstarved#we never held hands again and cut ties as sophomores in high school#but in junior year I met my current best friend and she was so comfortable with touch#I wrote in a journal somewhere that her hands are always cold and I want to keep them warm#she visited my home after graduation this one time and while we were hanging out on my couch she just grabbed my hand and started messing#with my fingers and running her thumb over my nails#it was so casual and went on for a while#I don’t even know if she realised she was messing with my hand#but it was really nice#haven’t seen her in months because of school but I can’t wait to see her again after this semester is over#moose posting#moose rambles

Im very into lavender these days but not in the woo woo 'this will fix my sleep problems and all other issues' pseudoscience way, it's just that i really love the smell and it's very comforting to me, which i can use a lot of right now so i try to surround myself with it as much as possible 💜
#lavender smells like how it feels to get home after a long day in the cold qnd you get to take off your wet clothes and put on soft pyjamas#and you can just get cozy in your warm bed and novidy expects anything else from you tonight no responsibilities no chores#you get to just be warm and safe and fall asleep#also bubble baths because iwe alsway had this lavender bubble bath when i was a kid and i loved it so much (i always tried to eat the foam#or rather i wanted to eat the smell itself but the closest i could get was the foam... yes it tasted bad) and i still love it a lot#oh also my best friend who ive known since kindergarten would always use this lavender oil (instead of like body lotion) after showers#(bit they changed the bottles a few years back so now they are like half the size which is ridiculous)#(we spent holidays together for years) and they still use it today but i dont get to smell it as much but that also makes me feel nostalgic#anyway lavender is amazing and i wish i could just drink that bubble bath fluid and get that cozy feeling inside of me that way#(im trying to find a tea that has mostly lavender but its not easy. most also have other stuff that i dont like... but ill keep looking!)#oh and i recently bought this lavender shower gel and that is so wonderful for a shower at night!!!#hey if any europeans wanna recommend any good (not suuuuper expensive) lavender products i could check out please tell me#winter is kicking my ass and i need anything i can get to cheer me up and comfort me#alright enough rabling#i just bought a tea i wanna try thats why i was thinking about it#mine

broooooooooooo i really really REALLY prefer a non-MW rook + emmrich i just really do T_T
#i love when he gets the opportunity to teach i love cultural exchange i love getting outside our comfort zones for each other#mw rook is just like 'aha i know what you are talking about because i too am from the necropolis :)' and that's ITTTTTTT#maybe it changes but so far no dice#i feel insane for how many people are gushing over MW rook x emmrich and im just left so cold from it#like the MW background is kinda cool so far#and they are one of the better and more lore-heavy factions which i love#but so far every conversation with emmrich feels like i'm trying to get a good grade in necromancy class which. yea he's the hot teacher#but im not trying to play like i'm actually in high school or something x'DDD#where's the intrigue. where's the mystery. it feels like he's an older family member. fuck dude.#Mara did it better#this is why linnea has to flip her shit and drop a building on his undead ass#dav spoilers

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
#oc: ashara#her being cold and bitter and harsh and unyielding and short tempered and dismissive and vicious. on the SURFACE#until you try. until u keep trying and actually make an effort to meet her w empathy and patience#and then u get love. and warmth and dedication and curiousity thoughtfulness and light and comfort and TRUST !!!!#even if its not perfect. even if shes still impatient and stubborn and unmoving on certain things#and seeing that those things u had dismissed as cold and harsh are rly just mistranslated attempts at kindness from someone who is#trying her absolute best. and has peoples best interest at heart at the end of the day. even if she cant always convey it well#and like thats THE WORLD. thats the PRESENT babe ! thats LIFE and PEOPLE for u !!!!#obsessed w him being like i can no longer hate this world because YOU are the world . but even then it doesnt change anything lol#and its like he was already going to potentially kill her by doing what he's doing but now its like#the world and ashara are a 1:1 comparison in his head atp. man#someone COOKED here#and that someone was me on the train to claremont in 2017 every day for like 11 weeks having recently discovered pinterest lol

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
#this is to say their church should pop the fuck off#AND IF THEY GET THE GALICEA GODDESS OF CHANGE GOING ON TOO? oooohohohoho#and fuck it throw ruvina in there too for comfort in the dark and cold#we got our Comfort In Pain goddess our Embrace The Unknown goddess our Change Is Normal goddess and our New Beginnings goddess#they could pop the fuck off#fhjy

tokyo godfathers is like the only christmas movie that hits super close to home
#rocket wants to fight#its Real#trying to find warmth in many ways as homeless people in the biting cold of tokyo …#i’ve never been homeless but my family has gotten pretty close to it. poverty changes how you do and think about everything#its just comforting and feels more human than any other xmas movie

hey uhhh can i ask about your kon clone baby? if you actually have ideas about it
oooohhhh my god im so glad u asked
my timkon clone baby refuses to answer to anything except kon or conner. kon knows he was made to replace kon (what do you call a replacements replacement?) and the memory download worked but kon knows that hes the wrong kon. but all hes ever been is kon.
at first he refuses a name change out of confusion, being kon is his purpose why would he not be kon? you dont make a thing for a purpose and then decide it has a different purpose? that it should do something else as if it isnt specialised equipment meant for a specific purpose.
later when he gets more understanding of his situation, how distraught tim was at the time, that conner was gone, that tim didnt expect his cloning sequence to work after so SO many failures (are you a success? or a different kind of failure?)
so conner refuses to pick a different name, hes kon and thats the name tim gave him thats how tim made him. why should he change? what because he isnt perfect? because the other kon, the real kon, came back?
how cloned do you have to be before your opinion stops counting?
#everyone is having a bad time :D#i love when clones claw their individuality out from the binds of their situation#but what if you had a clone who refused to be anything other than what it is. a hollow reflection of a person#can you ever fix the damage of forcing a living person into a mould? do you have the right to demand change for your own comfort?#also the double whammy of kon seeing his clone (is that what clark felt) and the betrayal (how could tim do this)#and a cold eyed child with his voice and his face and his NAME. even match had his own name#askbox#tim drake#kon el kent

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.
#.ooc#[ i hope that doesn't come off as aggressive or anything ;;#but i want to emphasize on the fact that the way i write eden IS different now#she is cautious & distrusting with new people and can come off quite cold in some cases#tho you might not see it much atm bc i mostly answer things from muses she's comfortable with#or with muns i know well#so her demeanor with them do not change and doesn't reflect the new ' persona ' i adapt with her#i'll make a follow up post on it later ! esp bc many things in 2.1 story really enforced her to have her guard up even higher ]

FLY SOUTH
Sometimes the cold moves in to push you further inside yourself to search for warmer skies to travel away from anything that doesn’t feel like home

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
#often i have the same nightmares so i can kinda tell (can’t pull myself out of it but i can still tell)#most other times though they start off good#like this one (i also don’t dream mostly about fantasy stuff it’s actually realistic stuff#which is scarier) i was at a board meeting like the one on saturday and it was actually going well i liked my group and they liked me and i#was comfortable enough to eat around them and it was great when suddenly a person in hindsight i don’t even know#(everyone else in the dream was on the board) was like ‘umm you need to not wear that’ i was wearing biker shorts and so were some other#people and they said i needed to triple diaper up or something because it was gross and they were uncomfortable#one person came to my defense only to be like actually yeah and this was in front of EVERYONE and i was all alone and i wasn’t at home so i#couldn’t change and the room was so quiet and cold and suddenly everyone who was at my table wasn’t there#and i was so embarrassed and i stopped eating and was doing everything not to cry#which is insane that’s and insane thing to dream or even think about but alas#eris: text#anyway good morning alajanjsjsjsk
