#didn't even say goodbye

'I minded many other things at the time: but what I still mind most is the curtain coming down so suddenly, leaving it all unfinished and meaningless. If there had just been a closing phrase, however painful — well, I could have borne it better. A word could have been enough, the one word 'darling' recognizing what we had been to each other, summing it all up!'

L. P. Hartley, from The Hireling

I'm just imagining Sevika charging into battle not knowing where her girls are. she hears whispers from the battlefield that Isha is dead and that Jinx is gone. taken. captured. surrendered. she doesn't want to accept either. she almost refuses. and it's in the back of her mind that she has to live so she can find her girls, and at the very least, remember them.

and she almost dies. she thinks that there might not be anyone to remember them. to find them.

and then she doesn't. she doesn't die. and one thing leads to another, and she's on the council. and....

she still doesn't know what happened to them.

and then Vi, the girl who, justifiably, hates her guts, comes back. and the look on her face all She needs to know Jinx is gone. but she can't accept it. she can't.

she demands to know what happened, in a clipped, gruff manner, not displaying much care, but her eyes are teary and her gut is churning.... and Vi just says they're gone.

and all Sevika can do is whisper "... both?"

and she doesn't wait for an answer. the face is enough. "how?".

the answer kills her.

she walks away. murmurs an apology over her shoulder.

she doesn't know what to do with the feeling in her chest. her fingers trace over the carving in her arm.

one of my favorite thing about Australians is the time their prime minister went to the beach with one of those inflated tire tubes and just floated away never to be seen again. very unserious country!

“New Zealanders are like Australians but more civilised”

Overheard on central line tube tonight

it’s not really a fair comparison because everyone is more civilized than Australians

Ted Lasso, the character, is one of the only representations of 'sometimes getting better with your mental health issues means that you are less visibly happy, and that is okay, because you are not required to be happy in order to be loved' out there and I am really discouraged that so much of the audience is angry at that.

Just sitting on my bed, studying biology when I think that leo valdez probably cried on his 17th birthday because he got to be the age Jason never got to be. He got to experience being 17 while jason is forever 16.

Say what you want about Mary, but nothing makes my heart ache for Arthur more than how fucking much they loved eachother and how much they knew it would never work.

Meeting Mary the second time, she absolutely lit up seeing that Arthur actually came to help her again. Even despite the rough circumstances with her father, they both went and had a wonderful evening at the theatre.

Mary had no idea that would be the last time she'd ever see Arthur alive again.

Uhhh stuff I doodled during the family event.

I often do french jokes/shitpost but uh yeah I'm also half finnish, 'twas an event on this side of the family.

So I doodled a few moomin characters from memory :') (+ finnish names beside, 'cause who the fuck is "Snufkin" ?? I only know Nuuska Muikkunen sorry)

It was a childhood cartoon /media and I have so much admiration for Tove Jansson's illustrations tbh, I wish I had half her skills, I only recently learned that she did illustrations for the hobbit novel omg

Jensen Ackles single-handedly saved this fandom from complete irreversible collapse by changing his line to Cas in Goodbye Stranger (8x17) from "I love you" to "We're family." What a good little soldier. I salute you. 🫡

My (very old) loscar brooch (?) that i just now made doodles for

its so funny cause the show had Luke be like "Annabeth's my sister. We're family <3" and they've showcased this close bond by having them interact for 2 seconds one time

in the span of maybe an hour, clara oswald goes from, "I already know - don't say it." to, "people like you and me should say things to each other" and I'll never get over it

she literally gets pulled out of time the moment before her death and learns he's been clawing his way back to her for 4.5 BILLION years?? Just to save her??? I would also suddenly and urgently have words

[trickquestionn]

Thinking about Tim Stoker hours. Thinking about Sasha James hours. Thinking about TImSasha hours. Sobbing uncontrollably hours.

tbh i’m rlly excited for the tripolar fukuchi showdown. you people aren't real sskk believers i think they can clutch it without chuuya/dazai/verlaine/whichever overpowered character stepping in to carry the fight

I refuse to acknowledge anything that happened in this volume. none of this happened. must've just been a heat induced fever dream. nope. no way.

[the-carlos-cow-eyes]

I'm sorry, but the way Rio took Nicky regardless, but she still made sure he quietly said goodbye to Agatha beforehand?? I'M SICK-😭
