#cuz summer is ending

[shieldofiron]

Steve isn’t prepared for how happy Billy is when he finally moves out of Cherry Lane.

Oh there are dark days. Days when the clouds have no lining, silver or otherwise. But there’s joy too, breathless joy.

Billy buys a new earring, giggling like a kid when he puts it on in the mirror. They make breakfast for dinner and he grins like a loon, eating with his mouth full and grossing Steve out. Billy laughs in bed, doesn’t take it all so serious anymore.

Billy reads comic books, it turns out. Or he always would have, if it wasn’t for babies. Steve finds him arguing with Dustin over the counter at the family video, throwing around words like power fantasy and Magneto, like he was born to be a nerd.

Billy grabs happiness with two hands, and it makes Steve want a little more of that joy in his own life. He starts running out to the ice cream truck. He kisses Billy sticky sweet by the pool, where he swims for the first time since that horrible night. Billy being happy makes him happier, makes him want happiness more.

“I love you, Blue,” He whispers at night when Billy finally uncurls from his tight spiral and sleeps starfish-style on their bed.

“Love you too, Bambi,” Billy grumbles. “Make me so fuckin’ happy.”

It’s been some time and Dustin and Steve go to see Wayne. Maybe he is moving out of Hawkins and they go to help with packing or maybe they just wanna check on him and he is reminiscing Eddie. Either way he has punch of old photos out. School photos, birthdays, first concerts, various different types from different ages.

One photo really catches Steve’s eye tho. It’s a group photo from the early 70s, taken in the summer. Steve asks Wayne “Why do you have this?”, seemingly little shocked and bewildered by the photo. Wayne looks at the photo and smiles telling it was taken in a summer camp Eddie once went. “That’s my boy” Wayne tells pointing one kid among the others. Dustin also looks at the photo and smiles. It seems like a good and happy memory.

So Wayne and Dustin get little puzzled when they hear choked sob coming from Steve. He is trying to hold it together but not really succeeding, his hands in his hair pulling so hard it can’t be comfortable. Just walking away from them now, fighting the tears. Rather weird and strong reaction for a mere summer camp photo, especially coming from Steve… Till you take a little closer look at the photo.

Because yes, with his buzz cut hair and thousand watt smile there’s little Eddie. Little Eddie who has his arm over another kid’s shoulder, pulling closer a little boy with a sweet smile, chestnut hair and tiny moles dotted on his face.

SPOILERS FOR MIZU5

Just read the entire story and aaaaajdjd😭😭

It genuinely made me stare at the ceiling for a solid 5 minutes and tear up (mainly because i love mizuki and somewhat relate to her)

All the memories with ena flashing before her eyes as she just stands there utterly terrified broke me the most. Ms hina (mizus va) and even and ms suzuki (enas va) really killed it with this one. Mizukis last words and the entire last chapter hit so SO HARD it was absolutely amazing‼️

Her room from secret distance which was once filled with everything she loves (and also was pink/feminine) now being dark and gloomy with a shattered mirror and broken mannequins is just heartbreaking tbh

Her dress also looks like its been torn and clawed at?? Im guessing the blindfold symbolises her feelings of not wanting ena (or the rest of the nightcord too) to actually see her like this + further more her fear of being shown kindness out of pity? (Im not really sure about how to word this) especially by ena

This is also the first time its been officially confirmed that she is infact trans (it was only HEAVILY implied but now its explicitly stated) i was sort of afraid they were going to backtrack but im glad they didnt do that

This event basically lived up to all the expectations but at what cost😭

Bake no hana (ghost flower in eng) fucking slaps‼️‼️ ive legit been listening to it non stop since release and there were a few details i noticed (⁠+⁠_⁠+⁠)

1. The total notes are 1003 on master with 1 being mizuki and 3 being the rest of the girls, showing the distance she places between them

2. Mizukis does not sing with the rest of the group and her vocals only ever overlap with kaitos

3. I havent properly searched up the translation yet but the lyrics seem all from mizukis pov (also the music video i think? With the blinking and all)

4. Even in the mv itself, mizuki is not present with the rest of the nightcord and only appears in frames with kaito

Her voicelines after the event are just depressing, she sounds so tired and sorta nihilistic (kinda like mafuyu in the main story) and shes also temporarily gone from the real world

Ena5 will most probably be in November and have mizuki as a 4* for the first time in an ena focus

Also something else i noticed in particular was

I guess this is foreshadowing for the next song in ena5 ? It seems so

All in all, these were my thoughts for the event (for now) kinda ended up writing an essay but yeah lol

this meme is for me and the other one person somewhere in the world that had read both hiraeth and hgsn

oh twoset violin... had it not been for you, not only would I have grown a bigger fondness for classical music or got the courage to get back into the violin after being bullied/taunted out of it... I would also not have this Delta Green operation idea LMFAO

If it's a rebrand, it's pretty scummy especially with the massive merch sale (and the two IG stories of them just bing chilling?? but it's good to know that they're still friends and that it's not health related). If it's leaving for good, it's weird that they've privated almost all their videos but understsandable if they've burnt out. Either way, it's been sad and disappointing, but thank you for all the belly laughs and knowledge for the past... 7 years for me, apparently! Sheesh

"Its Interesting how Toshiro loves Falin but 'hates' Laios even though they're so similar almost like the same person--" It's interesting how I will start slaughtering man if I see a "Falin and Laios are basically the same person" comment ever again. So fucking interesting huh

I'm repping Team Theme Park in the Summer Nights Splatfest and often when I think of theme parks I'm reminded of when I used to visit Six Flags during Spring Break or summer vacation

As such I decided to draw some art of Marvin in a neon Six Flags inspired outfit based on my Splatfest team
