Link hadn't been aware that Ganon had left, deep asleep in the bed they'd rented at the inn. He'd been exhausted, traveling to get word to the other races of Hyrule in search of allies, preparing plans, and staying up late to think of strategies and contingencies. He'd known only that they were running out of time, that Zelda's next attack was imminent.

His dreamless sleep shifted into a nightmare, a vision of the throne room of Hyrule Castle, of Ganon facing Zelda with a threat on his lips. He couldn't hear anything in the nightmare, both of the others' voices muffled beneath a harsh buzzing in his ears. It wasn't like Link was standing in the throne room in the vision, more as though he were watching from above as Zelda attacked with her malice.

Heart pounding painfully in his chest, Link could only observe as Ganon struck the malice away, as Zelda's attacks became more powerful. He tried to cry out a warning to Ganon as he saw Zelda teleport behind his husband, silently screaming as malice rained down, burning everything it touched, including the man Link loved with every fiber of his being, heart, body, soul.

Ganon was dying, like in so many of Link's nightmares of late, and Link tried desperately to wake - he had to wake up, had to see his husband and assure himself that Ganon was fine. The nightmare held him fast.

Only when the scene shifted, to the hot springs where he and Ganon had first admitted their feelings for each other, shared their first kiss, did Link realize this was no nightmare at all - he was seeing across Hyrule in his sleep, witnessing real events, and watching helplessly as Ganon slipped away from the world, from him.

Link's scream as he woke, sitting upright in bed, was heart-wrenching, the sound of complete and utter desolation echoing from the inn, outside, and for quite some distance. His heart was shattered, pain lacing his scream, and only amplified as his left hand burned, the Triforce of Wisdom's searing light radiating from the mark on his hand and rippling through the inn, breaking windows, splintering wood, and burning fabric. Hot tears fell from glowing blue eyes as Link cried out.

"GANON...!"

These little fuckers are round gobies. They are a freshwater goby that's invasive in Michigan, and they're in the nearby lake. They're distinct from the four native species due to their fused pelvic fins (middle pic) and a big black dot at the rear of their front dorsal fin. Though some other gobies have spots on their fins, NO Michigan-native species has a fused pelvic fin. These guys are very aggressive feeders and are very good at outcompeting native gobies.

They're also extremely good at stealing bait off big hooks as people on the docks reel in their lines. In particular, the bastard in the bottom photo stole my bait two days ago, so I caught him and filleted him for Bug.

Today, after acquiring smaller hooks, I went back and got 16 more, and educated several other fishers about their invasive nature. I got two turned over to me by others, and caught 14 more myself.

One man wandered over and asked why I was catching them on purpose. It was too much trouble to explain my feelings about invasive species, so I just told him, one of them stole my bait two days ago. He stopped watching my bobber and boggled at me and goes:

"You're doing this for revenge?"

So now there's some guy in town that thinks I am exacting revenge upon fish kind for a single stolen worm.

The betrayal of the left I feel most acutely isn't the mask-off antisemitism. Truth be told, I knew that was coming (even though I couldn't predict it would get this bad). What hurts is people's complete inability to call out the worst of it. Someone is yelling "go back to Poland?" Disavow it in the strongest terms. People are holding a banner with the words "Long Live October 7"? Expel them from your movement and don't let them back. See the odd Sieg Heil at your protest? For fuck's sake, get them the hell out of there however you can.

Why is this not happening? Getting rid of the Nazis is the lowest fucking bar. Why can't people clear it?

in an au where there's no kira and lawlight really do just meet in college light takes L home for dinner and is like ok we both know i have endless patience with what a weird freak you are due to how much of saint i am as we both know. but please try not to be too weird of a freak when you meet my parents. L's like yes okay whatever and then spends the entire dinner with his back really overexaggeratedly straight and making excessively normal small talk about american baseball and the stock market and light's family is bemusedly enchanted but light correctly interprets this as an act of passive aggression and a declaration of war and breaks up with him dramatically over dessert and then cries in his bedroom all night while light's parents are really confused why their nice son seems so angry with his perfectly polite and normal boyfriend who thanked them so sweetly for the ice cream. and soichiro walks L to the train station and bonds with him about law and then is like light i don't know why you behaved so shockingly at dinner tonight when ryuzaki (L uses a fake name for absolutely no reason at all in this au like just to be difficult) is such a nice young man and light punches his wall

Virgil: died in a witch trial and is DEATHLY afraid of everything and fire.

Patton: kindergarten teacher that died in a car collision and landed on the property

For those of you not watching along at home, Steve Harrington actually did not bite the head off of a demobat. I know Eddie references Ozzy Osbourne biting the head off a bat when he's talking about what Steve did, but Steve didn't do that. The bats were too large for him to have done that.

What Steve DID do was sink his teeth into the long, serrated tail a demobat had around his neck, causing it to release him from its stranglehold as it tries to escape him. What he DID do is grab it by that serrated tail - because he's not trapped in upside down with them, they're trapped in here with him - and swing it in an arc to bash its head against the ground 3 times before he stepped on one side of it and pulled on its tail until he fully just ripped the thing in half.

Then he spat the blood from the tail out of his mouth and looked around for the next one.

It goes far beyond biting a monster's head off. He fuckin' obliterated it. With his literally bare hands and feet, he was not even wearing shoes. Or a shirt. I feel like it's important we all understand he wasn't even feral enough for head biting. He was just fed up with being fed on, and was not going to take any chances.
