He likes sweaters, the way the envelop him like a soft hug. He likes chocolate, the warmth it brings in contrast to cold rooms and even colder chains. He likes the chairs by the fire, the way it eases the aches in his bones, the way it laps and crackles the wood, fuzzy flames seeming soft to the touch, like the worn fabric underneath him. He likes it when people snuggle up to him and steal the warmth he produces like a furnace, he likes knowing he can do something other than hurt.
He gets mad, heâs angry, heâs in pain. How could he not be? There are rips and tears in his skin that come from claws that are not his own. He wakes up with blood in his mouth, fearing it to be someone elseâs. He rages against the cruelty of the world, and there are cold points that bristle from him as a warning. He gets mad when he looks in the mirror, sees sharp scars and even sharper teeth, a painful reminder of his untamable bloodlust, he canât count how many mirrors heâs broken. He supposes the cuts he gets on his hands are just few added to the many. He wants to scream, he wants to snap, to let the world know his anger, he wants to become something the wolf may fear as much as he fears it.
Remus Lupin likes curling up, book in hand, the pages worn soft from years of use, by the fire. He likes how the paper smoothes against his fingertips, added with the glowing warmth of flame. Remus Lupin likes the soft things, the warm things. He likes how human they make him feel. He likes how it proves to himself that he is something other than the cold, sharp wolf. He likes taking joy in them, he likes how it makes happiness flutter in his chest, in stark contrast to blinding bloodlust that takes him over by force. He likes how he can become everything the wolf isnât, he likes how he can be better, how he can be the softness: in smiles, in hugs, in tones, in love. He likes how he can be the warmth: in comforting, in touches, in laughter, in love. He likes how he can think of the wolf and be so overwhelmingly angry, and still be a blazing torch of happiness to the cruel world that cursed him. He likes that itâs spite, but he likes even more that itâs love. He likes how it was love that let him like the soft things, the warm things. He likes how it is love he gives the people around him, not the scars that he gives himself. He likes that itâs love that makes soft jumpers rub against old scars and he likes that its love that he feels the jumper instead of the wound. He likes Siriusâ smile when he tells him in the dark night that the wolfâs fur is soft and warm. Remus likes how despite everything, he is the person seek out if they need a hug, or warmth by the fire, or a cozy sweater, or a bite of chocolate, or a good book, or a piece of love. He likes how the wolf took over his life and he found a way to live around it. He likes how he found a way to live and live and live without cold chains, sharp claws, bloody bites. He likes how heâs mad and he likes how he found a way to love.
He likes how thatâs the biggest âfuck youâ to the wolf, that he is everything it canât be.
#i had some thoughts#encountered a poll#realized after I voted that every option was wrong#remus is mad and angry and mean and witty and sarcastic#but hes also soft and warm and happy and dopey#and he can be both#and thats okay#i love remus so much#and he loves too#he can be raging at the world around him#and he can also love and love and love and love#and maybe he loves because things can be cruel because things arenât fair#maybe he can be the thing that helps it just a littl#remus lupin#sirius black#the marauders era#marauders#the marauders#wolfstar

Ok this is driving me up a wall because I've now encountered several people from the uk who knew about Salem in the us, but had no idea there were also witch hunts and trials in the uk
Reblog after voting, please đ
#poll#witch trials#also: yes i know literal witch hunts STILL happen in some places#and that it was historically not just the us and the uk#this just happens to be about the uk vs us trials *because* I've encountered multiple instances of uk folks not knowing about uk trials#I'm not surprised by people knowing about Salem because of pop culture at least

Have you ever seen a stowaway?
Yes, a few times/many
Yes, once
No, never
Whatâs a stowaway?
this poll has been done before, but it's a unique enough question that i'm fine with doing a slightly different repeat poll
#i left out the last option because i feel like if someone didn't know what a stowaway was before seeing this they would just answer no#or yes after searching it up and realizing they had encountered it before without knowing what it was#rain world#creaturepoll#repeat poll

For the serious version of this poll, go here.
#i am being dead serious that I didn't add the face option. maybe tumblr does that if you say fuck in the options#and it happened a SECOND TIME when I saved the draft again. like new row added with face. site's haunted#a google search showed someone also encountered this with a poll mentioning 'boobs'#tumblr is just being cheeky maybe but I hope they don't add a fresh row when I post it this is poll science and shouldn't be diluted#tumblr let me say fuck#unend spoilers#unend#un1e04#op#ariadne unends#uppermost#polls

years ago Toriyama said 'i didn't really like vegeta but he was really helpful to the story' and honestly?? more of that. more of those. you don't have to like him but is he good for your story? he'll be good for your audience too, bet
#i LOVE when characters that are intended to be killed off accidentally become an integral part of the story#he changed his mind about geets too -- even once said him beating goku would never happen but then canonized it years later#the VERY definition of a character having earned it#but also I thought it was really interesting that he described vegeta as a character who wrote himself! i am injecting that into my veins#he talks about subconsciously adding him to scenes and just letting him move the pen on his own so to speak and jksfsd how fitting#not to armchair psychology but i love the idea that vegeta was a toxic part of the author that healed as he was writing him#may we all encounter and develop that oc in our lifetimes#also genuinely and truly love that he was shocked that 'someone with that hair' was popular and how often he outflanked goku in polls aklsj#rip toriyama you were always so real for it#i always love his interviews but the one that said he sought bulma's help and bit by bit became less ruthless ;^; i love they#i will never forgive toei for writing him like he doesn't respect her when she's the first person he DOES respect. meet me in the pit toei

Sighs. Would Dr. John Watson, MD (from the BOOKS FROM ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S BOOKS (or granada holmes that works too from what ive heard) FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NOT BBC SHERLOCK PLEASE NOT THAT. I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW MUCH IT CANNOT BE BBC SHERLOCK) be an avatar of the Eye?
Don't worry anon, I'm not exactly fond of BBC Sherlock either. One of the worst versions of Watson especially IMO.
#john watson#dr john watson#sherlock holmes#acd watson#the magnus archives#tma#polls#avatar polls#the eye#mod Moth đŚ#Sherlock holmes has always had a special place in my heart as one of the first aces I encountered in fiction#so I wasn't too thrilled about how they handled him in that show#and watson was just very unlikable#I also really didn't like how they handled Irene Adler#Not to mention the massive drop in quality after a bit#s4 was an incomprehensible mess#it was borderline unwatchable with how clever it seemed to think it was too#At least I wasn't at all invested in the ship so there's that I guess#anyway#apologies for the rant

I decided that, since its the end of the month, I'd collect some of my favorite tags and comments. Here's to another month!
#not a poll#qsmp#qsmp eggs#Not added but there was a post i encountered in the wild laughing about the sheer amount of richas sweeps#I forgot to reblog you. And you were gone when looked for you again. It was so funny.#they didn't say me by name. but i knew#i knew.#posted: january

Do You Know This Disabled Character?
This isnât specific to any media. If you know only one version, vote âI know themâ.
Song Lan was blind and is mute.
#poll#polls#disability#disabled characters#id in alt text#song lan#the untamed#mo dao zu shi#mdzs#So whatâs fun is both of the mods have a passing familiarity with this content#And are more familiar with the other guy he hangs out with that we ran earlier#So I (mod A) was like why donât I know this dude#so I went on the wiki to figure out if he was disabled or not#And was reading through his wiki as I normally do#And then I was like holy shit why is this guyâs story so tragic#So that was one of my more interesting encounters on a wiki#mod a was summoned from the void to write tags for once
