“ Sora... can I? ”

It’s said so quietly that only from an instance so close and intimate, as lying with arms and legs intertwined can it be inferred. That any looker-on in this moment of peace would be forced to crane their necks and widen the ears, only for efforts to be in vain. These are words meant only for them -- only for him -- much so he seemed to understand its meaning almost immediately.

When his palm exposes to her, she gives him that knowing smile before letting the curtains of her lashes come to their close. In total peace does her body fade away in a flurry of sparkles, all of them scattered and zipping about, until they gather and collect into the safety of his hand.  

In this vulnerable state she is held within his palm, glowing gently for him... brightening in incriments the closer he draws her in, and she trusts him to take her into the one place, cosmos to cosmos, she felt safest. With him, deep inside.

One heart.

[ sneak attack soft from @maregiis ]

Maybe it was a brand of selfishness that sparked this very ability. To take wounds woven from the past, to let them find a way of embracing this as a tender, indulgent power as sometimes the matter of their physical connection simply wasn't enough. No matter how much his fingers adorn flowing through her scarlet hair, or the way her soft breath tickles at the nape of his neck as those arms selfishly claim their dominion upon them.. the concepts that create Sora and Kairi simply knew.

There was a particularly addictive quality to the level of completion of forgoing their corporeal forms, and to allow the perfection union within their eyes to manifest whenever they gained privacy. Sora's eyes burn with tender adoration as he faces her, looking at the tremble of excitement that balances with her peaceful expression. "I want it too, Kai. To feel it.." No more straying, no more looking away, the selfishness they decisively danced around in the name of greater goods would be wholly taken in.

Allowing one of his tanned hands to extend forth, to allow that welcoming gesture with his calloused fingers would signify enough, expectation finds itself glowing within his sky lit eyes as his Heart of Hearts was already transmitting that wavelength, a special song dedicated to Kairi's being, a song dawn entirely from their union from the day the islands fell.

The day she helped bolster that invincible and kind courage that turned him into a champion.

"I got you."

A sudden wave of force finds itself rolling like the most secure blanket within the surroundings as she disperses. What was once a view that struck a cold terror down his spine was replaced, gentle expectation, eagerness, a desire to watch her experiment with the most intimate boundary that serves as her greatest strength. Briefly letting his eyes ebb shut, he'd instead focus on feeling, letting the great potential that sleeps within find a means of stirring awake, dotted in streaks of gold and crystalline pink as it begins to focus upon the latter color.

Settled within his palm would be the forged essence of his most precious weight. An unconscious and prepared smile blooming bright, so familiar to the very look that helped steer away the darkest fears of her nightmares. Taking the form of a flower forged from crystal, the view in itself found itself as overwhelming as it did upon his first encounter, where the greater universe lies, and countless, golden keyholes sparkled like stars in the sky.

This time, he answers to the magnetic pull that found itself barred from their duty once before.

Bringing both of his hands forth in order to tenderly cup the gentle radiance that shimmers and spills from his palm, the urgency of his heart trying break from the beyond to meet her's had to be tempered, calmed, as his physical form would bring Kairi's being directly to his chest, allowing for the joyous dance of their souls as surge of pure, unbridled power begins to erupt within in waves. Her light would find itself tucked safely in the waves of cerulean power, glittering with scintillating wonder as their hearts would become one.

Caring so little about the outside world in this moment, his eyes carefully close shut, all expectation cast to the wayside as darkness would await him. No. Opening the eyes of his greatest strength reveals a new sight, a natural blend of their inner worlds that contently take the form of the Sky and Sea.

And that's where he'd find her, safely set within his arms while those same strong extremities of her's were securely fastened around his neck. Relaxation would draw the slackness of his spiritual body as he relaxes against her, losing himself in the way they float in completion.

Oh did he sorely miss this.

"Welcome home."

can't believe tom hiddleston ACTUALLY interrupted the interviewer to say "one last thing, i think mobius is loki's friend and i don't think loki has ever had a friend before" like king. i love how u felt the need to add that truly

soap's whole deal being sniper and demolitions gets me going bc on the surface they sound so different but when you get into it, you realise it's bc soap's smart

sniping is all math; calculating distances and wind interference and bullet drop. something i think people overlook is he was listed as a sniper first so it can be implied that he's better at it than demolitions. he does more sniping in both campaigns than demolitions work; in capture or kill, ghost specifically calls on him to take down the aq snipers

and demolitions is math with a hit of chemistry; knowing what mixes with what, knowing how much to use, recognising environmental factors and adjusting accordingly. it's not just about the boom; so much work goes into contained/ planned explosions. especially when having enough power for a breacher charge and not bringing down the whole building is the difference between mission success and failure

the chemical bombs he makes in alone can't just be any old cleaners, they have to have the correct reaction to each other; he just knew off the top of his head what would mix with what to create what reaction. he would also potentially have to recognise them by sight/smell bc they would’ve been written in spanish

soap would also have to know architecture; recognising structural integrity and weak points so he knows exactly where to plant a charge to bring it down and how it'll come down

he has an incredible soldier's mind people just forget that bc he's sociable which itself is a skill

we know he tends to buck against orders he doesn't agree with like when he pushes back against ghost in capture or kill and shepherd when he tells them to release hassan

he gets closer to people and sees if he can trust them and that's when he follows them without question. really think about how he talks to alejandro and rudy; he asks about their home and alejandro's family and rudy's relationship with him. those aren't questions you ask a stranger after a few hours of knowing them. that's not even touching on his relationship with ghost

he also deliberately brings people of higher ranks down to his level; talking informally with ghost and giving him a shoulder punch, addressing alejandro (a colonel!!) by his first name and rudy by his nickname despite literally just meeting them. he personalises all of them and it’s in direct opposition to the reason most characters do that; it’s not due to insubordination or lack of respect, the more he respects and trusts someone, the more casual he is with them

he digs into people; he wants to know what makes them tick and that determines if he can one, trust them and two, follow their orders. once he decides that, he's the ultimate soldier; he bleeds loyalty which makes him vicious when that loyalty is taken for granted

he isn't naive or bubbly or insecure; he's an incredibly smart and aware soldier. he's aggressive and bloodthirsty and loyal and intuitive and i love him so much

i'll reassure you as many times as you need

[the-one-that-weeps]

Every time someone in this godforsaken fandom says "I think we've talked about misogyny enough" I want to hit them with a hammer. No we haven't.

We haven't even talked about the deep "Ruikasa&Akitoya Vs. literally everyone else" imbalance enough but imagine all of the people that get pressured into writing specifically for male/male ships simply because otherwise they won't get any appreciation.

Yes it's a cowardly thing but when you see Ruikasa having over 4000 fics and Ichisaki having like 5 in total obviously you're going to be discouraged. Obviously you'll be biased into creating Ruikasa instead of other ships.

And as someone who depends on appreciation in particular to do any work at all obviously that's going to have a lasting consequence. Some people spend 4 hours crying in front of a screen just for 3 people to like their work and leave, it's understandable if they lose passion for creating at all, you guys killed them.

It's even in how we handle m/m ships. You go into a fic that's tagged Rui&Tsukasa(platonic), someone in the comments always goes "okay but when do they kiss". You go to an action-packed longfic, someone always ends up going "okay but when do they kiss".

Fuck you guys. Actually. This is a silly piano tiles game about Hatsune Miku, we should be one of the MOST CREATIVE fandoms in history and somehow people still get mad over two boys not kissing immediately after getting introduced. It's so fucking difficult being a content creator in this fandom because you always end up having to take the same route. They meet they tease they kiss. End of story. "Oh you're doing something "lame" instead? -1 kudo. Bring me my yaoi next🖕"

why are people saying Bruce was a teen when he started fostering Dick? he was in his early twenties

[constantlyfeelsick]

You know the scene where Dante is at their childhood home, with a shattered Rebellion in his hands, surrounded by what was once his safe haven, while he wonders why Sparda gave him the Rebellion. You think he could smell the dried down residue of Vergil's blood on the ground?
