okay sorry, having a full time job leaves less time to mainline Persona than when I was full time depressed, but I played a good chunk and wow
Tumblr media
Shout out to the localization team for knowing exactly what they are doing because I am personally thrilled to bits. I sure hope there is some, ahem, choice fic on the AO3 about Alice because goddamn.
Anyway, I am SUPER BAD at this game. Even on Easy, the controls just feel..... weird. When the game told me I'd unlocked a new combo, it did help me understand a bit that this is basically a fighting game with permanent hoard mode, but as someone who doesn't play fighting games, it's a steep learning curve.
Whatever, it's a big world, and there are AssCreed-style Prison Keeps that have to be taken over to progress the story.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Core of every Prison Keep is an item emblematic of the Jail warden's power. For Alice, there's the first big magazine she made the cover of, her first designer dress, and her big CD. Ann is not thrilled with any of this, clearly seeing herself in Alice. It's easy to imagine that all of these Core items are things that Ann aspires to as well, and the reflection is clearly disheartening.
Again, this game makes the whole Inspirational Model thing work so much more than P5 original. I really feel for Ann here and I'm glad that rather than just a villain the cast isn't really connected to, there was effort here to make it feel more personal.
I really like the writing! It's good!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ONLY NINE? Oh well, I am going to read all of them anyway.
Anyway, after stealing all the Cores, Alice's Jail goes on high-alert and the team has to bail to consider their infiltration tactic.
AND THEN
BY GOD

I cannot overexpress how much this fucking guy sounds like Mask-Off Adachi As Played By Troy Baker. Like, I was so fucking convinced the witch was back and this was Troy that I googled it and was LITERALLY SHOCKED to learn this is not actually a Troy Baker performance.

Everyone is extremely cold towards Chaz the Cop and

I LITERALLY IRL CACKLED AT THIS. OH MY GOD HARU I LOVE YOU? Haru you're a gift.
Anyway Chaz-- I should call him Zenkichi if he's gonna be around for the whole game........
Anyway, Chaz is extremely upfront about shit. He is with PubSec. Everyone is looking at what's going on with these personality shifts and going

Which, admittedly, it totally does.
Chaz asks Reverie outright if they're involved. He says no, they're being framed.

Pardon my language, but the amount of cunt this man is serving with every fucking line of dialogue is staggering. Oh my god, I might be a little in love?

NOT A PERSONA GAME WITHOUT A DEAL TO FULFILL, here we go!
Chaz wants to work with Reverie and the Thieves. He knows this isn't their doing and if Reverie is arrested, the incidents will continue. So if they team up, Chaz will use his leverage to ensure Reverie avoids arrest.

oh my god this is my guy, y'all. I am being targeted like a sniper's sight and I am fine with it. I'm in.
hey Chaz do you wanna kiss?

awwwwwwww shit yeah, dad is on my side!

Happy Accidents
Tumblr media
In a world where soulmates can feel what the other feels, Hoseok meets Yoongi on Club Penguin, not knowing that 1. they possibly know each other IRL and 2. are soulmates. After an incident in class, Yoongi finds out who jdope23 really is.
Title: Happy Accidents
Word count: 3.7k+
Pairing: Yoongi x Hoseok
Type: soulmate au, club penguin au, college au
Genre: not really fluff but no smut so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Warnings: minor swearing. Mentions of poop. You might overdose because of how much crack this fic is on.
Author’s note: this is my first ever fic so pls don’t come for me if it’s bad, I’m not the best writer lmao. This fic is in no way making fun of writers or anything; I genuinely had a fun time writing this and hope you enjoy it. Sorry if there’s spelling errors, I’m only human.
Requests are open!
Club penguin was a “free” multiplayer online game where people, 6 years old and up, could enter a virtual world. There you could play as a cartoon penguin, taking part in missions and games to earn coins and buy super cool merchandise, ranging from clothes to furniture, in order to complete your feng shui goals in your very own igloo!
However to be considered the hippest penguin on the slopes, you had to have a paid membership. With this membership came unlimited perks such as: being able to take part in every penguin activity on the server and even buying up to 75 Puffles— small furry pets that had no limbs and only ate Puffle-Os (whatever that is).
When you were not joining in on events and missions you could waddle around and make friends! Club penguin offered many places where penguins could chat and chill (haha get it). Were you tired from sliding down the ski slopes and in need of something scrumptious to eat? Say no more! You could head to the pizza parlor where you could relax, eat pizza, and connect with your penguin pals! Besides the parlor, there were many other places you could use the ultimate safe chat or the regular safe chat to talk to other players (let’s be honest though the ultimate safe chat was only created for 5 year olds who didn’t know how to type in the first place).
That’s how Min Yoongi (aka sugasweet66) met Jung Hoseok (aka jdope23) on one cool Monday afternoon at the pizza parlor.
Min Yoongi was a music major with a bad case of sleeping for 12+ hours a day. He had started playing club penguin at the ripe age of 17, during his senior year of high school. At first it was just a joke between his friends but it soon become much more than that.
“Hyung have you heard of this new online game that was just released a few years ago?” Namjoon asked as him, Yoongi, and Jin sat at the computer section of the library. Yoongi didn’t care enough to answer him so instead he just turned his gaze from the music video he was watching (promiscuous by nelly furtado ft timbaland) to Namjoon’s computer screen.
On it was the intro screen to a game he vaguely made out to be called club penfin or something to that extent. Yoongi’s English was not perfect.
“What is that?” Jin sat back in his chair in slight disgust, was he really spending his only study period watching Namjoon play some game where his avatar was a fat ugly penguin? I mean who chooses yellow for a skin color?
“It’s called club penguin, it’s an online multiplayer game where you’re a penguin and do missions and shit. Look I just put a table in my igloo!” Namjoon pointed excitedly at his screen, where there in his white barren igloo sat a brown wooden coffee table.
Jin scoffed as he continued to watch Namjoon mess around with his igloo. After a couple seconds of seeing Namjoon have a mini heart attack because he thought he had accidentally bought the membership, Yoongi looked back at his screen curious. The game, although probably a complete joke, looked mildly entertaining.
Therefore that same day Yoongi went home and loaded up his computer, typing www.clubpenguin.com into the url tab.
Ever since then Yoongi would come home from school and religiously play club penguin. He became very invested in the game, even going so far as to buying the membership. Over the years, Yoongi cultivated an image of being one of the coolest penguins on the server. Or should I say, sugasweet66 became known as the it penguin.
Everyone admired and wanted to be sugasweet66. Of course most people playing were 10 year olds but that didn’t stop Yoongi, a 24 year old college student, from adoring the praise and compliments given to his penguin on a daily basis.
On the other hand, Jung Hoseok was far from popular in the virtual world of club penguin. Similar to Yoongi, Hoseok was a dance major who had stumbled upon the online game one day while sitting in a gaming café with his three best friends: Jungkook, Jimin, and Taehyung.
JustinSeagull97 has created a group chat
JustinSeagull97: hey hyungs clck the lnk I’m abt 2 snd
Mochiboy: are you having a seizure? What’s wrong with your typing?
Taetae95: ^^^^
JustinSeagull97: it’s quickr ths way
JustinSeagull97 shared a link with the group chat
Jdope23: what’s the link?
Mochiboy: is that the link to that game you’re playing right now?
Taetae95: oh is that club penguin?!
Jdope23: club what?
JustinSeagull97: it’s an adventre gme where u ply as a pnguin n it’s rlly fun pls ply w me
Jdope23: can someone kick Jungkook off the gc if he continues typing like that??
Mochiboy: yeah I got it hyung dw
JustinSeagull97: no pls dnt kck me out ffs
Taetae95: kookie did you just swear???
Jdope23: jimin you know what to do
JustinSeagull97: lol he wnt do it
Mochiboy has kicked JustinSeagull97 from the chat
Taetae95: now can we play some CP?
Jdope23: sure ig
Mochiboy: ^^^^
From that day on Hoseok and his friends met at the gaming café almost everyday to play club penguin together. Although only Jungkook bought the membership, the four still had immense fun playing the online game. That’s why Hoseok continued to play even after he entered college.
Of course Hoseok would still meet occasionally with his bffs to play, he was usually only ever able to play the game in the dorms because being a dance major meant dedicating many hours to practicing.
It was right before Hoseok left for college when he met Yoongi on Club Penguin.
Hoseok had just finished packing for college when he decided to play a bit of his favorite game. He sat down at his computer desk with a content sigh; his back was beginning to kill him and he felt sympathy for whoever his soulmate was.
Living in a world where your soulmate feels whatever you feel was particularly hard for Hoseok. Of course being a dancer meant that one was prone to getting injuries and aches, but Hoseok felt immense guilt every time he twisted an ankle or missed a step while dancing and bruised his knees. Hoseok didn’t want to inflict pain onto his soulmate, whether it be purposely or not. That’s why he dedicated himself to perfecting every dance move in order to ensure that his soulmate would not be receiving pain from his doing.
Smiling to himself at the thought, Hoseok entered his username and password and was soon logged on to the club penguin server. He debated calling his best friends and telling them to get on as well; on one hand he’d have people to play with but on the other, Taehyung would most likely make Hoseok spend all his coins on stupid shit.
Deciding against it, Hoseok clicked on the map icon on his screen and soon his green colored penguin was standing in the pizza parlor. There were only a handful of penguins there but Hoseok didn’t mind at all.
A small smile spread across his lips as he began to type on his light up keyboard he had spent all summer saving up for.
Jdope23: hello everyone!
Hoseok clicked on a button and watched as his penguin did a circular motion with its hips and arms. He laughed as a few penguins around him copied his ministrations and greeted him. 
He then made his penguin sit down at one of the table in the pizzeria, striking up a conversation with a pink penguin with a super cool fedora on. 
UssySleigher: hello fellow penguin have you heard the news? It’s karaoke night tonight! 
Jdope23: seriously?? How does that work...
UssySleigher: you just stand on the stage and sing... have you never done karaoke before?
Jdope23: I know that it’s just.. never mind. When’s it starting?
UssySleigher: right now.
Hoseok raised a brow as he leaned in to watch as a black penguin with brown spiked hair, wearing a teal shirt with dark stripes, waddled up to the stage. He nearly choked when he read the penguin’s username: sugasweet66.
“What does that even mean?” Hoseok thought as the mysterious penguin took the stage.
Sugasweet66: hello everyone it’s d boy here to use my tongue technology to spit some sick beats 
Hoseok watched as no penguin except the one with the fedora replied to sugasweet66’s words. 
UssySleigher: let’s get it! 
Hoseok shook his head and watched as the black penguin on stage began to breakdance. He couldn’t help but laugh as the penguin began his “performance”.
Sugasweet66: I love it when you call me big poppa
Sugasweet66: Throw your hands in the air, if you'se a true player
Sugasweet66: To the honies gettin' money playin' dudes like dummies
Sugasweet66’s performance went on for another 3 minutes as he rapped the entire big poppa song. At the end of it, Hoseok was in tears and didn’t hesitate to make his penguin clap. He even laughed so hard that he fell off his chair a bit and bumped his knee on the desk. 
“Ow god damn.” Hoseok hissed, rubbing his knee. He glanced back at the screen to see other penguins clapping and even dancing in response to sugasweet66’s performance. 
Sugasweet66: DAEGUUUUUUUU
And with that last line the black penguin waved and made its way off the stage. Hoseok immediately grabbed his mouse and clicked next to sugasweet66, watching as his penguin waddled towards them. For some odd reason, Hoseok wanted to be friends with this intriguing penguin. Not only was their rap game strong but he was genuinely curious about them. He typed furiously on his keyboard as sugasweet66 made their way over to the counter of the pizza parlor.
Jdope23: That was an awesome performance! 
At first the penguin he was now next to didn’t answer but after a couple seconds of waiting, Hoseok got a reply.
Sugasweet66: you want an autograph or smth?
Hoseok snorted. He couldn’t believe that was what sugasweet66 took a full minute to come up with.
Jdope23: sure 
Sugasweet66: i don’t have a pen... or fingers 
Jdope23: maybe next time then
Hoseok found himself smiling at his screen for the second time today, his hand went to his mouse and in a few seconds Hoseok had added the strange penguin. Now all he had to do was wait for sugasweet66 to accept his request.
Sugasweet66: why did you send me a friend request 
Jdope23: I want to break into your igloo 
Sugasweet66: ok
Hoseok’s computer made a ding sound notifying him that someone had accepted his friend request and he knew exactly who that was. 
Sugasweet66. 
And that’s how their friendship started. After that fateful night, sugasweet66 and Jdope23 began meeting up almost everyday on the server. They’d usually hang out at Yoongi’s igloo because he was a member, meaning his igloo was a lot more decorous than Hoseok’s. 
The two would go on missions and do almost everything together. Basically they were conjoined at the pixelated penguin hip. They learned a lot about each other over the course of the two years they had played together, for example: what their favorite colors were and how many nipples they had. Although somehow they had never thought to share their real names with each other, possibly because that sort of topic was not usually discussed during their super cool hangouts at, as Yoongi called it, the genius lab. 
Even after Yoongi’s penguin started gaining traction did they still hang out as if they were both just two lame dudes playing club penguin (because I mean, they were). Yoongi would still meet up with Hoseok everyday in the game and Hoseok would continuously beg Yoongi to buy him stuff with his membership perks. It was a pleasant cycle that occurred daily until one fateful afternoon, it halted.
It was a particularly warm spring morning when Yoongi was sitting in the back rows of the lecture hall, listening to his music theory teacher drone on about god knows what. It was his last day of classes before spring break and to say he was relieved was an understatement.  
Yoongi was feeling exhausted with his workload lately. Balancing a job at the café, his schoolwork, and his fame on club penguin was strenuous and took a toll on him. He was more than ready to just sleep off the stress he had been feeling for the entirety of the break. 
Propping his elbow on his desk and placing his head in his hand, Yoongi kept his gaze trained on the board where his teacher was currently writing notes. He was absentmindedly jotting them down when he became uncomfortably warm. He moved to take off his leather jacket quietly and after a few seconds he had succeeded, placing the article of clothing on the empty seat next to him. 
However he still couldn’t seem to cool down. If anything, taking off his jacket only made him hotter (and not in the way that he would’ve liked).
Yoongi began to shift in his seat, sitting up straight for a second to find that his black shirt was now stuck to his back due to his body’s perspiration.  
“What the hell is happening?” Yoongi began to panic, “Is this what menopause feels like?” 
He began to look around the room, making sure none of his classmates were witnessing his potential loss of his menstrual cycle. 
“Wait... don’t only women menstruate?” Yoongi soon became confused but luckily, the lecture hall was mostly empty today and those who were here were not paying any attention to his breakdown. 
“Okay okay so if I’m not entering menopause then what is going on?” Yoongi, no longer paying attention to today’s lesson, was now using his kumumon folder to fan himself. The heat didn’t seem to subside as a strong wave of pain hit his abdomen. Holding back a groan, he grabbed his stomach in agony and began to rub it, hoping the notion would somehow soothe the now aching organ. 
“This must be what giving birth feels like.” Yoongi thought, pulling out his iPhone 4s to webMD his symptoms and see if he was about to meet the face of the grim reaper. However before he could even put his folder down and reach into the pocket of his black skinny jeans, another wave of pain washed over him, stronger than the last. 
Unlike last time, Yoongi was unable to hold back his groans. It was like someone had just stabbed his abdomen with a knife and proceeded to shove a dildo in the wound to stop the bleeding. He closed his eyes momentarily and began to try and control his uneven breathing.
A few students began to send confused looks Yoongi’s way however the teacher didn’t seem to notice or if he did, he really didn’t seem to care enough to say anything. 
Yoongi continued to keep his eyes closed, his breathing returning to a somewhat normal pace. His stomach was still in pain though and his sweating didn’t seem to ease up. Yoongi glanced at the clock to see how much time was left until class would end and he could sprint to the bathroom, not sure what was going on with his body but knowing the bathroom seemed like the right place to be right about now. The pain began to crescendo and he squeezed his eyes shut when it became unbearable; he abruptly stood up when he felt an all too familiar feeling hit him. He couldn’t wait to run to the bathroom, he had to go now. 
Ignoring the stares he was getting from both his teacher and his classmates, he began to climb down the stairs, cursing at himself that he picked today of all days to sit all the way in the back. He was simultaneously rubbing his stomach with one hand as the other held his belongings. The teacher was saying something to him but at this point all sound became muffled to him. All Yoongi was worried about was making it to the restroom in time before-
Oh no.
It was too late.
Just as he had reached the last step his butt cheeks unclenched and a whoosh of unrestrained air, that crackled and snapped like unbounded thunder, echoed throughout the hall. At first, Yoongi was relieved because he began to feel better immensely. Maybe all he needed was to break a little wind. However, it seemed that that was only the calm before the storm, or should Yoongi say, the hurricane.
The room remained silent as it seemed everyone was frozen in time. Some students mouths were agape and others were in utter disgust. 
Yoongi had made the grave mistake of trusting that one single fart because all of a sudden, as if Noah had just parted the Red Sea that was Yoongi’s ass cheeks, shit had began to leak out of his booty. It was like the dam had broke and shit was flooding Yoongi’s boxer briefs. Shrieks and profanities originating from the students rang out into the room. Yoongi felt his face heat up, knowing at this point he must be as red as Ronald McDonald’s wig. He couldn’t move nor could he make himself say something, anything to mend the situation. Because in all honestly, there was no coming back from this.
The smell coming from his bottom was deadly and many of the students, suddenly coming in contact with the horrid scent, began to evacuate the room. Even his teacher, who just shot Yoongi a less than amused look, pinched his nose and ran out of the room. Everyone was gagging, even Yoongi because this was one shit that he didn’t enjoy the smell of.
Yoongi was the only one left in the room when he finally stopped shitting himself (literally and figuratively). It wasn’t like he could move anyways, his pants were so full of crap he couldn’t move one inch without it sliding down his legs and making more of a mess than he already was. He couldn’t believe this had happened to him today; he should’ve known not to eat the gas station gimbap his roommate had brought home last night. 
Yoongi could stew on that topic later however, right now he needed to come up with a solution on how the hell he was going to get back to his dorm without trailing diarrhea behind him. ——— After the whole “shit and get” fiasco, Yoongi had managed to make it home. Currently he was sitting at his laptop, staring at the club penguin log in screen. He wasn’t sure if he really wanted to waddle around the server after what had happened. Although he soon came to the conclusion that if there was anything that could make him feel better, it was club penguin. So Yoongi logged onto the server and was met with his decked out igloo. A small smile appeared on his face when he saw that his bestie, jdope23, was also online. He didn’t hesitate to send a quick message to them, telling them to come to his igloo ASAP. Already Yoongi was starting to be in better spirits, almost forgetting the events that occurred today. Almost. 
Within the span of a few minutes jdope23 had appeared in the genius lab, waddling around and messing with yoongi’s things. Yoongi just rolled his eyes, a silly grin plastered on his face as he watched the green penguin start to break dance on the mini dance floor Yoongi had in his igloo.
Sugasweet66: hey wassup nerd
Jdope23: nothing much 
Yoongi began to type back a response when another chat bubble appeared on his screen. 
Jdope23: Lmao sumthin funny happen today tho 
Yoongi furrowed his brows as he typed back. 
Sugasweet66: wut
Jdope23: literally best day eva
He sighed at this, it definitely wasn’t the best day ever for him. 
Sugasweet66: u gonna tell me or 
Jdope23: someone shattered their pants in class HA
Yoongi choked. He literally choked on the saliva forming in his mouth. He couldn’t be? No there was no way on God’s green earth that jdope23 was talking about what had happened to him today in class. 
Sugasweet66: LOL I dnt believe u 
Jdope23: no 4 rEAL! It happen in my music theory class 
Jdope23: this dood let it all go right before the bell rang and it smelled like someone opened a 50 year old tub of mayo
Yoongi thought he would drop dead right then and there. His palms were sweaty and his stomach began to ache at the memories of today. Not only was jdope23 a person in his class but he had witnessed Yoongi’s shitdown!
Sugasweet66: That me
Sugasweet66: I the one who crapped his pants 
Jdope23: Lmao wut
Sugasweet66: I pooped my pants today in class!! You witnessed me let the floodgates of my a$$ break free
Jdope23: oh
Jdope23: OH
At this moment in time Hoseok was sitting in his dorm room, staring at his computer screen in complete and utter shock. The person he had been playing club penguin with for over 2 years now, sugasweet66, was actually someone he knew in real life. Someone who, not only was in his music theory class, but was his potential soulmate.
To Hoseok it sounded crazy but it all oddly made sense. The reason why Hoseok felt like he was going to shit himself today was because the boy who actually did shit himself in his class was actually his soulmate! He had always had an infatuation with said boy but never was able to get the courage to introduce himself.
Now he had multiple reasons to strike up a conversation.
The fact that sugasweet66 turned out to be the shitty boy in his class, who was also his soulmate, was merely coincidence but Hoseok felt like it was fate. It was fate that the owner of sugasweet66 shat himself in their music theory class, it was fate that the two had become penguin besties on the most amazing online game (and dating website) to ever exist.
Hoseok was overjoyed to say the least. 
Jdope23: I think we’re soulmates 
Sugasweet66 was temporarily banned from club penguin for using the phrase “what the actual flying fuck you talking about egghead”.
The end?

don’t read this unless you’re a csa survivor. i’m serious. i’m desperate for solidarity right now and that’s why i’m writing this on the internet at all. i know it’s stupid. but i really really really want to talk to someone about it and i don’t want to do it with any of my irl friends because my brain is irrational.
two of my best friends got engaged this month and ever since then i’ve been a wreck
at first i thought it was jealousy
i guess that’s kind of half true, because i’m jealous that they can enjoy normal good things and have a normal good life
but i think it’s worse than that?
i think the reason i’m terrified of marriage is because someone getting married = abandoning me
which is gross not only because it’s stupid, but because the person i perceived as abandoning me via marriage and burned this stupid habit into my brain was my rapist
he molested me from, as far as i know, from roughly age four or five to six, when our mothers used to go out together and leave him and his brother to babysit my brothers and me. 
when i was thirteen he confessed to my parents. they told me and asked me whether i wanted to talk to him. i said no, because of course i did. 
it took me till i was about nineteen or twenty to connect early fragments of memory that hadn’t made sense with the context. memories that were more emotional than logical. the blackout during monopoly, screwing the head of a flashlight off so it was more like a candle and lit up more space, feelings that the memory was extremely important, feeling wanted and feeling “good.”
i always had a vague memory that whenever we went to his house, i always felt “good.”
i was extremely attached to him, allegedly told our families i was going to marry him when i was seven, decided i liked all the foods he liked (still do, because hell if i’d give up sour cream because of him), followed him around a lot, etc. etc.
that’s the weird thing. when it was happening, i guess i was too young for it to register as trauma, since he never caused physical pain. i guess i used to have orgasms back then, hilariously. 
i associated him with feeling good, feeling safe, feeling wanted, feeling happy.
strangely enough, at around the same time, four to six, i became obsessed with being tied up. i was a fucking six-year-old who wanted to be bound and gagged, and if that’s not fucked up i don’t know what is.
when he came and confessed? when i was thirteen? it was because he’d “come back to the faith” and “met a nice girl” and wanted to take care of “unfinished business” before he got fucking married.
i shit you not, he fucking came to my house, told my parents “i raped your kid like seven years ago but, you know, i’m sorry now,” and get this, asked for their forgiveness and their blessing to go get married.
and they fucking gave it to him. they basically got his word (don’t even get me started) that he’d never do it to anyone again, and they made sure he’d told his fiancee.
(also don’t even get me started on the fact that she was willing to marry him after he told her)
(i hated her from the instant i knew she existed and i didn’t understand why and i hated that i hated her.)
and no no no no no fucking no, i do not want him. but as a child? i guess i thought he loved me or some bullshit. i was convinced i was going to marry him when i grew up. 
and whoop dee doo he went off and married some “saintly” girl who was “willing to forgive him for his past sins.”
something something she was his own fucking age, huzzah for that. he got to ruin my life and then go live a normal one of his own.
when i was in college and had been hospitalized twice, once for suicidal thoughts, once for actually attempting to kill myself, and my parents finally figured out i wasn’t just “lazy and entitled,” but actually their precious baby really wanted to die, they tried to take me to therapy.
when my first therapist heard about The Stuff, she asked for his name so she could fucking report the incident like she was supposed to. my parents said it was “up to me” but “you know these things should stay within the church” and also strongly insinuated that you know, reporting him would ruin his fucking life.
so i refused, and i asked to see a different therapist.
look, it’d already been long enough that probably nothing would’ve come of it anyways. but i still wish i’d told.
hell i still wish i’d told to this day and i still haven’t said anything. because now he’s got a wife and kids and if i ruin his life what if it ruins his kids’ lives too?
but then again, what if his kids aren’t safe with him and it’s my fault?
i don’t fucking know. i don’t know. i don’t know. maybe i’m still helping a rapist stay under the radar i don’t know and it eats me up every day but i’m scared. i don’t want to be the reason two kids get their dad taken away if he’s actually kept his word and not hurt anyone else.
but i just don’t know and i have no way of knowing.
(sidenote: two years ago i finally told my mom i wanted to talk to him but then didn’t follow through because i ended up feeling too scared. so she sent him a letter saying i wanted closure, which was true. he sent back a letter saying, in a nutshell, “i’m really sorry for what i did to you, but i hope for your sake that you forgive me because you know, bitterness will eat you up if you let it, so i hope you give this whole thing to god.” so fucking pious. i wanted to throw up. “i hope for your sake that you forgive me” fucking fuck you.)
anyways probably the reason i hate marriage, aside from all the obvious reasons it’s stupid, is because he got married and it fucking traumatized me as a kid. huzzah.
so yeah, logical brain knows it’s bullshit, but illogical brain is literally telling me and has been telling me for like two weeks that since my best friends are gonna get married they’re gone. i’m literally at their house for a visit, at 9am after drinking and cooking and watching tv with them last night, like they’re still here everything is fine everything is the same as it’s always been, and my fucking brain is still screaming you’ve lost them and now you’re down to just two close friends left and one of those remaining two is only a matter of time.
i feel sick and i can’t seem to smile as much or be as fun as usual and it’s making this worse because i want to make this time good to reassure myself that they won’t disappear on me and all i can do is hover around like a ghost and barely talk and i hate this i hate this i hate this.
