Quando si chiude la casa dei nonni
“Uno dei momenti più tristi della nostra vita è quando la porta della casa dei nonni si chiude per sempre. Una volta chiusa quella porta non ci saranno più i pomeriggi felici con zii, cugini, nipoti, genitori fratelli e sorelle.
Ve lo ricordate? Non era necessario andare al ristorante la domenica. Si andava a casa dei nonni. A Natale la nonna bucava l’ozono con le sue fritture mentre il nonno si dedicava all’arrosto facendo puntualmente bruciare la canna fumaria. La tavola era lunghissima e veniva apparecchiata nella stanza più grande.
Adesso la casa è chiusa ed è rimasta soltanto la polvere. Un cartello vendesi. Nessuno la vuole quella casa. È vecchia. Va ristrutturata. Costa troppo. Cazzo ne sapete di quanto vale la casa dei nonni.
La casa dei nonni non ha un valore. E così passano gli anni. Non ci sono più regali da scartare. Frittate da mangiare. Verdure da pulire. Quando la casa dei nonni si chiude ci ritroviamo adulti senza capire quando abbiamo smesso di essere bambini.
Certo per i nonni saremo sempre piccoli e indifesi. Sempre. I nonni avevano sempre il caffè pronto. La pasta. Il vino. Le caramelle.
Poi finisce tutto. Non ci sono più le canzoni. Non si fa più la pasta fatta in casa. La nonna non friggerà più le patatine e io non potrò più rubarle di nascosto dal forno. Siete andati via troppo presto porca miseria. Io volevo fare la salsa ancora una volta. Il mirto. Le chiacchiere. E il liquore all’alloro. Io volevo ancora accatastare la legna con te nonno, anzi grazie per avermelo insegnato.
E grazie per gli insegnamenti sulla vita. E sulla campagna. E sul giardinaggio. Ora quando passo guardo quella casa e mi viene sempre l’abitudine di parcheggiare.
E di buttare giù il campanello. E di sentire la nonna gridare che porco giuda non sono modi quelli.
Scusa nonna. Non suonerò più il campanello. Al massimo quando mi capiterà di pensarvi di nuovo, come ora, canterò una canzone. Quella preferita dal nonno. Un amore così grande.”

no i totally get this. i was in a library with my granda one time and he just came out with "why have they got Oscar Wilde here? wasn't he a f*g?" and i was like "i don't know granda, but you can't really say that anymore, its not very nice," and he said that i was an "oversensitive product of my generation". but like i still love him because he my granda and he generally lovely ignoring that. its hard.
i know that like, my whole family is somewhat homophobic (some more, some less..) but i still get surprised when they say something homophobic, like, i start to look at them in a completely different way..
e.g. last weekend me, my dad and my grandma were watching tv, and it started talking about gay stuff and my grandma just blurted out sth like: "homosexuality is bullshit, they are all a bunch of "f-words"" and i simply cannot look at her the same way since then
this is probably a little odd, but idc
lol

The idea of people having so many theories about it amuses me to no end. Over the years the speculation could probably get really intense too- maybe people even write speculative fiction about it.
As for the mystery finally being solved like. One that’s hilarious. Two- would it be a whole event? Not just the fact there’s finally a building there and the whole process of it- but maybe Wanmin has the craziest opening ever with how much is going on in there Akskdkkfkf.
(And I love the idea of childe going from terrifying god warrior who beat down celestia to. Local mischievous cryptid. It reminds me of the bake danuki in Inazuma. He’s just a little guy your honor. Just a little fox.
foreigners: yeah they say liyue has this like- ultra-powerful god of destruction that put celestia in its place like thousands of years ago. how scary. i've heard that he also has an intelligence network of spies across the entirety of teyvat. i know it sounds so fake and tinfoil-hat conspiracty but i've heard it everywhere! and he's just there chilling? how do they not have a heart attack everytime he does anything...
liyue natives: yeah this is master childe. yeah he's a bit stupid. yeah he could kill us all if he wanted. yeah we love him. what do you mean he could cause armaggeddon? god forbid gingers do anything. how old is master childe-? too old for you AND he's married. stay away from our god, foreigners.
#i'm convinced at some point the liyue youth would just be unaware of how strong childe is#and like- it'd be this sort of granparent's tale on how childe is totally like- as strong as morax#and like they still spar together they just don't do it with an audience right#so with childe's general cryptid like behaviour on top i'm sure there'd come a point there Kids These Days would like#be all: what? master childe was the one to school celestia? ....master childe? are you sure?#or like: yeah master childe the celestia killer we've all heard it. pretty sure it was just my grandma fangirling over him but whatever#and childe would find the entire ordeal absolutely hilarious. like he'd embrace the cryptid status#and whenever something actually serious happens in liyue everyone would be like :O what. grandma wasn't lying?#what do you mean master childe is out there fighting alongside lord morax? what do you *mean* competition???#and so the cycle of people forgetting and then remembering childe's status as Annihilation god would repeat all over again#anyway#thank you <3 <3

I appreciate a lot all the asks and be sure I've read them, just please be patient with me because I'm kinda going through stuff that has me a little overwhelmed <3 <3
#one of my granparents is in the hospital and he's kinda critical right now#I'm not super close to him but I've already lost two of my granparents in the last years#the one I was closest to (my grandmother from my mother's side) was a total hit just before covid and I've barely recovered from it#then my granddad from my mother's side and it was a degenerative condition that left my nerves wrecked#so yeah :( it feels like it's been non-stop mourning for a while

#I am curious please answer me#I always imagine it being my grandmas house#and whenever the layout doesn't match i have to make adjustments#obviously if its like a castle or something I dont imagine it as my grandparents house#but if its just a house it will be my granparents house#or sometimes my old house i grew up in#I just cannot imagine a new place without seeing it first even if its described to me#poll#scheduled to be posted at a normal time and not 2 am#fanfiction#fanfic#reading#booklr#ao3#good omens#go fanfic#ofmd

why would you assume that your foremothers are happy you arent working in a field. maybe your foremothers are really disappointed you arent a prosperous farmer who owns her own land.
#sometimes i think about all the effort my gg granparents put into immigrating here and clearing the land and doing the whole homestead thing#only for all their descendants to be urbanites. city dwellers. none of their children kept that land in the family

Lyrics from Alive, Sia.
#frozen elsa#frozen 2 elsa#frozenedit#frozen2edit#ice queen elsa#fifth spirit elsa#frozen 2#queen elsa of arendelle#elsaedit#sia alive#i lover her songs#my gifs#my edit#guess i'm not over the bad parenting elsa had#the crappy granparent doesn't help#i mean those two would have had the worst relationship#good thing they never met#but part of the reason she got to born was his death so...
