Anakin is haunted.

Haunted by the memory of Obi-Wan going limp in his arms.

Haunted by the image of faintly flickering silver eyes begging him to live.

Haunted by the delirious words that fell from his lips as he faded away.

Words that float in Anakin’s mind the way Obi-Wan’s body still floats in bacta.

-or- Obi-Wan does not remember his deathbed confession. Anakin does.

"Academic burnout? What could possibly be causing that?"

Oh, idk, just the 6 page essay due on Friday, the twelve paragraph assignment due on Monday (for the same class), the two tests tomorrow, the AP test on Wednesday, a concert on Sunday, a performance next Monday, five million other tests, and all the anxiety and stress at home, as well

AMPUTATED

I feel you like a limb lost in violent battle echoing through an achingly disorganized brain Digging through files to find one that's Missing The phantom limb with its persistent itch settling itself in as a permanent heaviness in my chest It still catches me off guard, makes my muscles convulse with the shock of your Absence I feel the missing when I hear your favorite songs or when I instinctively roll over to see your face touched in morning light and instead find your pillow Empty In forgetful moments I put weight on something that isn't there anymore. Falling to the ground when my false step reminds me that you're Gone My heart stutters as it's hit with cold air where your warm body should be and weighed down with the realization that you are Lost Every reminder rips at the sutures of my heart Because our souls are intertwined But you have been Amputated from me And I will always feel the Missing

I know I'll come to a point where I'll be okay again. Hell, I've survived a lot in my life and I was okay every time. It's the interim that sucks the most. Waiting for that moment when you'll suddenly realize, oh, I haven't thought about that in a long time. It doesn't hurt anymore. Cool. Bleh.

My Immortal

So yup... this is me writing some angst! (I promise I'm okay, just stretching my wings a little!)

As a lot of you know I'm a massive fan of @verabraun-art and her artwork. There's always something in it which is just so touching and personal, and as much as the inspiration for this fic tore my heart apart when I listened to My Immortal from Evanescence this one shot just formed itself with Vera's amazing artwork leading the way.

I hope you give this a read and don't worry, I'll be back to my main romcom style fics soon ;)

Moving side to side, Adrien twisted and turned in his bed; unable to rest knowing what the morning entailed. What he was about to do?

10 years.

How had it already been 10 years since that day?

10 years of not knowing who or what he was; not without the additional heart and strength to complete him, the perfect side — his perfect match. The intense hurt and pain just wouldn’t fade. It didn’t matter what he tried or what he did, it lingered inside him like a bad itch, catching him off guard in his lowest moments and battering him down, making him weak. It was an itch he just couldn’t reach though, instead it resides inside him causing a constant question of what if?

Though Paris was once his pride and joy, he didn’t live here anymore. He wasn’t part of Paris and Paris wasn’t his home, but it didn’t matter; no distance could help subside the harm this city had caused him; the scars it had left.

Rolling once more, Adrien sighed and gave up on his attempt at sleep. Looking at the digital clock on the table beside him, he prayed it would be displaying an hour where he could convince himself it was a suitable time to get up.

4:37am

A groan left his mouth as he pushed himself into a sitting position; not ideal, but sleep was eluding him so why bother trying anymore. He could just begin the day early, prolonging the feeling of undiluted dread in his gut. He gripped the sides of the mattress, his eyes focusing on the clock as it ticked over onto the next minute. Adrien’s knuckles grew whiter by the minute, his grip on reality tightened just as his fingers did on the hotel bed.

PSA: i keep seeing posts about staying cool in extreme heat that include advice like "gatorade is bad actually!" and "don't drink fruit juice it'll just dehydrate you!" and neither of these are true!

regarding fruit juice: there's apparently a misconception that Any Sugar At All will dehydrate you, and that's simply not true. yes, sugar will make you pee more when consumed in large amounts, but 1) the natural sugar in fruits won't do this to you 2) great news! a lot of fruit juices exist without any added sugar in them! 3) honestly even having a glass of the fruit juice with added sugar won't completely dehydrate you as long as you're also drinking water throughout the day. if its hot you deserve a cold treat of a drink!!! can't go wrong with fruit juice!!!

regarding gatorade: maybe this isn't an every day drink, but guess what: if it's 110F/40C or hotter outside, and you don't have AC, or you're moving around a lot outside of the AC, and you're sweating buckets: that's when you drink a gatorade.

gatorade exists to replenish all the electrolytes (salt) and glucose (sugar) that you sweat out. YES it is meant for athletes to drink during intensive work outs and not necessarily for people who aren't doing that kind of exercise. BUT GUESS WHAT! when you're sweating buckets because you had to walk to the bus in extreme heat, that's intensive exercise. please feel free to drink a gatorade after that! that's its intended use case!!!!

no: neither of these drinks should be a total replacement for water. but drinking a lot of water and then treating yourself to a fruit juice with lunch is a good idea!!! drinking a gatorade becuase you just had to walk for 20 minutes in the heat is a good idea!!!

Please Stop Spreading Misinformation About Drinks!!! It's fine if you drink things that aren't water!!!! Yes you should probably always be drinking water but drinking something else As Well isn't going to hurt you!!!! okay!!!! its fine!!!!!!

honestly so long as you are consistently getting Any (non-alcoholic) fluids in you, you're doing great!!!!!! okay!!!! i love you stay safe <3

I post as a way to make sure the thoughts don't fester, a way to make sure my feelings and emotions don't flood the landscape of my mind, when the ancient dam breaks. The metaphorical dam, that represents my ability to cope with the struggles of life, has show signs of decay, and even let out dangerous amounts of feelings, but to fix the issues would require talking to people, no not people, my parents. I don't fear them, but to open up to them would be a most effective form of torture, and if tryed it, and it wasn't torture, it would be fruitless

I was asked today how I'm doing, and when the usual "Yeah, fine, you?" didn't suffice and they pressed and I had to actually think about how I felt I realised I just felt completely, unfathomably... Nothing.

Like a void had been bashed open in my chest and my once beating and absolutely overflowing heart had just vanished without so much as a note.

I don't know what's worse.

Feeling too much, or feeling nothing at all.

Happy 20th Anniversary, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge!

Here: I can't decide if your emails make me miss you more or less. Sometimes I feel like a funny-looking rock in the middle of the most beautiful clear ocean when I read the kind of things you write to me. You love so much bigger than yourself, bigger than everything. I can't believe how lucky I am to even witness it—to be the one who gets to have it, and so much of it, is beyond luck and feels like fate. Catholic God made me to be the person you write those things about. I'll say five Hail Marys. Muchas gracias, Santa Maria. I can't match you for prose, but what I can do is write you a list. AN INCOMPLETE LIST: THINGS I LOVE ABOUT HRH PRINCE HENRY OF WALES
