the other day i was thinking about how the first time i read htn, i was waiting the whole book for a twist about john. specifically, a twist in personality i was waiting for him to 'drop the act', so to speak, and reveal himself as a cruel, intelligent manipulator instead of the most pathetic piece of man i've ever read. but then the twist happened, and it completely blew my mind bc even after the twist, he still is just like that. he exploded the heart of one of the few people who maybe ever really loved him, but he's still just like that. and that hurt even more. the aspects of his nature that briefly endeared me to him suddenly became repulsive and honestly insulting. mercymorn is right, how dare you sit on the couch and discreetly eat peanuts. how dare you tell the child begging you for absolution to get a hobby. he can't even do fascism right. he literally just exists to eat hot chip and lie and that's so INSULTING. it's INSULTING. JOHN GAIUS'S EXISTENCE IS SUCH A SLAP IN THE FACE.

so i think zane should've gotten his lick back

i think after failing to protect the innocent he goes on to develop an extreme sense of vigilante justice to compensate, and sometimes that justice gets ugly

i want to see him annihilate vex lol. partly for what he did to him but most importantly what he did to every innocent villager and formling and creature in the realm. he can't change his past but he will avenge his victims.

Do you think Ifrit is incredibly gentle ?

Big hands holding onto smaller ones so delicately, squeezing just enough to be grounding but never too much ?

Sure, he's known for his "crushing" hugs, but really, they only seem that because of the enthusiasm behind them ; in truth Ifrit holds onto people with something close to reverence, and there is devastating tenderness in each of his embraces.

Even when he roughouses with other ghouls, his hand finds its way under a head before it can slam onto the ground, his tail ready to wrap around waists to help whoever's in need to keep their balance, arms slipping so easily around shoulders in a show of protectiveness once things calm down.

Do you think Ifrit is incredibly gentle ? Because I do.

Happy Kurapika Day!

Until Neil, Andrew had never felt unconditional love. He had never been loved or wanted without giving a part of himself away in return. That is what made Neil different and dangerous and a pipe dream.

After all, how can you believe that someone wants you for who you are rather than what you can provide? How can you trust that it is real when no other person has ever seen you as more than your body?

How many parts of yourself can you give away before you have nothing left?

corazón. a companion piece to this one.

Will, who panics at the slightest notion of his siblings in pain. Will, who took on the burden of head healer AND head counselor when all of his siblings died. Will, who has to endure the worst medical emergencies known to camp, and just smile and bear it. Will, who loves so deeply with every inch of himself, but overdoes it and forgets to take care of himself sometimes. Will, who would go to the ends of the earth for the ones he loves. Kind, patient, accepting, loving, Will.

Will who suffers from terrible demigod dreams beyond most due to the trauma of being a healer. Will, who watched all of his siblings die and decided he would never let that happen to Kayla or Austin. Will, whose fatal flaw could be argued is self-sacrifice. Will, willing to do anything to keep his loved ones safe.

So uhm

I don't know how to title these anymore

haymitch posting and ooh. ohhh. nothing breaks me more than thinking about the man who was once just a boy, fighting for his survival via early morning hunts, bruised knuckles and bloodied bandages, tesserae in exchange for slip after slip. holding together the small, crumbling bits of his world with inherited willpower and being forced to watch the last of it disintegrate after his win. and i think, was he a kind brother? did he scold, teach, care and watch over the little boy who was unfortunate enough to be related to him by blood? did they know that fortune and gratitude would become a curse when he was forced to stand at his brother's grave? did his mother ever think, that instead of losing her eldest son, he would lose her and more? did she get a glimpse into his future of anguish, grief and despair? could she have bared it?

i can't move on from please be real because it has me thinking about what kind of boyfriend jay would actually be irl

luckily for you anon, i think about it constantly and have a notesapp doc dedicated to it so let me share

warnings: mentions of insecurity, kisses

wc: 600

jay would call you baby/babe and honey, like they are his go to petnames for you and they slip from his lips so casually that he barely calls you by your name anymore

jay would have a playlist with all the songs you've recommended him and play them when he's just doing his tasks because they remind him of you

jay compliments you on almost everything you do, even if you do it badly, he is so encouraging for you to try new things.

he is the type to never tell you what to wear when you go out but if he knows you might end up somewhat insecure or uncomfortable with stares, he always gives you his jacket

and even if you're insecure about your body in general, jay would try his best to make sure you have a good relationship with food, he doesn't want you to be overwhelmed by standards or calories so he would constantly work with you to have the best mindset

when he goes shopping, jay will pick up your favourite snacks without having to be asked because "you'll eat them at some point"

jay takes your hand randomly when you're out, like of course he will hold your hand when you're walking but even when you're out with friends and yapping, he would intertwine his fingers with yours because it just feels right

because jay loves to cook, he would make you food you want to try and on special occasions he'll bake you sweet treats - even if he fails when trying to make them into heart shapes

jay would buy you things but i think it would be sentimental things that you can cherish because he bought them with you in mind; jewellery and handmade gifts are his favourite to get you because they'd be specific to you

he alternates between being the big spoon and little spoon, he doesn't mind either way, just whatever is comfortable for you

jay also loves laying his head on your lap or vice versa, talking about your mundane job or whatever is on your mind, he'll play with your hair as you speak, smiling at your anecdotes and silly accents you somehow bring out when impersonating your boss/co-worker/classmate (he is also heavily invested in the drama and gets angry with you)

if someone cracks a joke at your expense, he'll get defensive, calling the person out even if you're not there because he hates it when people speak about you in an ill manor, even jokingly

you would have couple piercings with him, ones that he would get matching earrings for

jay loves you unconditionally but he will vocalise when he is upset with you and talk it out, he would bottle up some feelings but not the ones that involve your relationship because he wouldn't want to put a strain on your relationship - communication is key to him

he would dry your hair if you were too tired, putting it on the lowest setting so he could spend more time taking care of you but he says it’s just so he can hear you

jay would smother you in kisses and take any opportunity to steal a smooch - in bed, when you’re cooking, when you’re distracted by the tv, each time he would kiss you and bring the attention back to him

jay is the type of boyfriend who would smile during kisses, especially when you're gripping his shirt and pulling him as close to you as possible, he loves to feel wanted and needed

he doesn’t tell you he loves you all the time because he doesn’t want the words to lose their meaning, so instead he shows it by being there for you and doing actions that prove to you that he will love you for the rest of time
