#idk if this even makes sense tbh

[edsbacktattoo]

hey. so what if

“i love you. i love you.” “i know. i know that.”

is the new

“you came back.” “never left.”

like the first time it was stede admitting his relief. he was in peril and his world was ending but he's stoked because someone he cares about chose to come back to him, even knowing what it meant. knowing that it meant losing everything, knowing that it meant death. he still got to look at someone he loved with the time he had left.

and the second time it’s just reversed. this time it’s ed admitting his relief and it sounds like it! “i love you. I love you,” sounds exactly the same as “i'm so grateful to have the chance to tell you how loved you are. i'm glad we're here together.” and it's the same as last time. they chose to come back to each other, even knowing what it meant. knowing that it was going to be hard and scary and it might end in heartbreak one day but making that choice anyway.

the difference is just that this time they didn't submit. this time they fought as hard as they could for what they love the most. they saved each other. goodbye

Day 9: when this war is over

Cho Chang/Fleur Delacour, T, 284 tags: prose poetry, second wizarding war, angst @hpshipuary: Fleur Delacour @febuwhump: Voice loss @hpsaffics: Angst/dark Also on AO3

Tongue cut out in darkness, burned black stump to keep the blood out. Love, keep your brooding eyes, and I will keep your voice. Our gaze meeting across the hall, across the court, across the blue black sky. Our words never reaching each other through the hedge maze, through the mist, through the war ravaged air. I’ll find you in the aftermath, darling, when I’m blind and stumbling, when you're gasping and croaking. 

Rest your head on my shoulder, and I’ll carry you out of this. Let me hold onto the hem of your jumper, and we’ll get out of this. I’ll swallow my pride if it means we’ll make it out of this. And if we have to pretend we love another, we’ll know it’s not true, and if we have to be separated for the greater good, we’ll know it’s not forever. 

Oh, love, is it bright for you? I can’t see, but I taste ash. Spells that crack like fireworks connect with rib cages. Flames that ravage family homes in mass cremation. And all the while your tongue nestled against mine. Your tongue in my throat, I carry two voices in my chest, but I can’t seem to call you home. You have two eyes in your head, but you can’t seem to find the way to me. 

When I can’t see you, I have no words to speak of; what use have I for two tongues? I want to sing and cry with you, laugh and squint into the sun. When this war is over, I’ll put your tongue back in your mouth. When this war is over you'll put my eyes in their sockets.

When this war is over.

sometimes i am stunned when i remember that not only are katniss and peeta the youngest people going into the quarter quell but also that they are still literally KIDS. they are children facing 22 adults with not only years of friendship between them but years of mentorship to learn the best strategies of the games.

katniss is a 17yo girl who was malnourished most of her life that only had months to try to prepare to catch up to her competitors. peeta is a 17yo boy who is likely still going through puberty! facing fully grown adults.

sure some of the victors are in their early 20s like finnick or johanna, but the maturity difference between early 20s and 17 is huge.

they are kids forced to play in an adults’ game.

i was gonna do this meme with the original format then a much better came to mind

Something I think is cute is that - y’know how Raph’s eyes are more on the yellow side?

Well, you know who also has slightly yellowed eyes? Donnie.

While Raph’s are more yellow, I think it’s cute that this is something that they share and I don’t see it pointed out too often?

It’s also something they both share with Draxum and Splinter’s current form (though again, these two have much more yellow sclera than the boys do.)

But yeah, I like that there’s this little detail that ties Raph and Donnie together, even if it’s small.

See, I understand that people will write Pony as an oblivious kid, and I gst that, but here's the thing.

Pony is only oblivious when it comes to himself. He's actually pretty perceptive when it comes to other people. Let me paint you and example:

"Darry never goes out anymore, he never dates anyone either" -some member of the gang (prolly soda or two-bit)

'wdym?? He went on a date with Tim like yesterday??" -pony, one of the only ppl who noticed the tension between the oldest Curtis and oldest Shepherd

But on the flip side:

"I'm like literally in love with you, you're like the most amazing person I've ever met." -curly

"what?" -pony genuinely has no clue how this happened or even what IS happening tbh

Luffy not knowing about Zoro promising Sanji to kill him if he ever ends up losing himself makes me go feral because that's something they can only know about. Because Zoro's respect for life and death goes beyond anything, and Sanji knows he understands. Sanji knows that if somebody has to kill him, it's him.

And I don't even think it's because Sanji assumes Zoro's opinion of him is hatred and it would hurt less for him to do this, but because Sanji knows only Zoro would be able to treat the promise as it is. Because he would put Sanji's wishes before any feelings he has for him. It's not that Zoro doesn't care, but I think he respects people's ideals and decisions to the extent of being able to kill Sanji if he so desires.

That being said, he'd do it if there's no other way to fix it. If it's either dying or living as an emotionless machine, which is the same as dying for Sanji, Zoro would fulfill his promise. And there is just... Something about Luffy not knowing. Their captain. The man they're devoted to the most as if he were their God. Luffy doesn't know. It's something only the captain's wings are aware of and the thought of these two keeping this from Luffy until the end is just insane. Not even trying to make it romantic here, but the bond and respect these two have for each other is crazy.

Maybe it's the poetry of it all, too. Somebody like Zoro, who has looked at Death in her face multiple times and said "no", ending Sanji's life, who wants to give in to death to not experience a fate worse than death for him.

Was talking with my coworkers today, and I forget how it came up, but one of them was like “Wait, are you gay?” (I’m bisexual)

And instead of just saying that to him, I panicked and replied “Yeah, sometimes”

What if Copia actually asked Ifrit to tour with him? And Ifrit couldn't say yes, because that meant leaving Zephyr behind (even just for a few months). Just the thought of leaving Zeph behind for only two weeks makes Ifrit feel bad, so no, he didn't want to tour again. He just wanted to be Zephyr.

this is the face of the you make when you realize the bloodiest civil war in westerosi history was started over a misunderstanding the writers made up in order to give one single character something to do over the seasons

Ok I know I'm heavily biased here but like I kinda love that Astarion's romance is one of the few in this type of video game where you basically end up canonically unmarried and childfree in his "good" ending? Just travelling the world??

Like it's honestly the millennial dream lmfaoo cannot believe i chose what would undoubtedly be my favorite option, first try

They're soulmates in every single universe and I miss them at the most random times.

One of the biggest things that makes me see Leo as trans is absolutely the size of his carapace in comparison to his brothers’.

And I’m not talking about height! I’m specifically looking at his shell here, because when you compare him to the others, particularly Donnie who is nearly the same height as Leo, it’s very clear that Leo’s carapace is much longer in proportion to the rest of his body.

Like - standing side by side, even though Donnie is shorter his carapace ends noticeably higher up than Leo’s does. And I like this not only because it really helps push the idea that Leo could very likely be trans (or intersex!), but it’s also just a fun design difference between them.

(It also lends way to future scenarios of Donnie eventually getting taller than Leo, but sitting down still has Leo being the taller one haha.)

hey you ever think about how its implied that you have to be turned into a nobody to get norted, like, every member of the real org13 who isnt literally xehanort or literally possessed by xehanort is a nobody (except maybe vanitas but *gestures* thats a . different can of worms), and the people who were recompleted had to then become nobodies again in order to be in the real org13 and serve as a vessel for xehanort, like perhaps your heart has to be removed in order to make room for another heart,

and then do you ever think about the one character who canonically got norted before becoming a nobody and is still norted even after being recompleted and thus canonically didnt need to become a nobody in order to be norted, and then lose your mind a little bit
