#instead of divorced

[its-hai-time]

got in a very particular mood abt them tonight

[petricorah]

I love "i would kill for you" ship dynamics but what about "i would stop killing" ship dynamic??

I would lay down my sword for you. I would change my nature and go against everything i've known. I would resist the easy way out of solving my problems. I would give up the adrenaline of battle to stay by your side and make tea instead. I'm not sure I know who I am without a weapon in my hand because I've had to fight for so long but for you I'm willing to try and figure this out.

It must be hard. To put down your weapon that's protected you for so long. It's allowed you to stay alive it's kept you from getting hurt--physically and mentally. Because you've never had to worry about a real relationship if you think you'll be dead at the next battle. And you feel naked without it and it feels like you're ripping off an extension of yourself. Are you even whole without it? Are you worthy of being loved if you can't prove it by risking your life? And yet they've found someone who's asking them for something much harder than dying in battle on their behalf. They've found someone who wants them to live. And that's much more terrifying.

how long do you think he took to figure it out

i forgot you can’t add videos to reblogs

(From Gem’s subnautica stream on 27/10/2024)

Gem: Alright, so I guess those two never worked that out. “…wants to re-” I’ve never heard a breakup worded like that- “I would like to reduce our hours together. To zero.” …what the heck.

Gem: I need to channel some of that coldness for my life series character. Use that line on Pearl.

jayce and vi parallels are everything to me... they try to save the people around them and end up dooming them even further. they have a goal and the only thing to stop them from reaching for it is unwavering, dog-like loyalty. they are asked again and again if they would still love viktor/cait/jinx/vander even if theyre almost completely unrecognizable and the answer is always yes. they make terrible decisions at every turn and they dont quite save everyone in the end but they do, through sheer stubbornness, force them to be loved. theyre even gay. and stupid

ok but what if i edited all of john's lines and the music out of the entirety of malevolent so it just sounds like what a bystander would hear

hot take but the reason why beez and gabriel figured their shit out so quickly is because they both have a solid sense of who they are as a person and the relationships adds to that instead of threatening their sense of identity.

if, for some reason, they had landed on "yeah no we won't work" they would have been sad/disappointed/heartbroken, but ultimately beez is happy with who they are and so is gabriel. nina and maggie decided to NOT get into a relationship for the same reason, they respect themselves and each other enough to put personal growth and their mental health first instead of attempting to solve trauma responses and hypervigilance by making someone the turning point of their world.

aziraphale and crowley, on the other hand, aren't just dogshit at communicating, they have also build their sense of identity around each other and thus the thought of not being together automatically comes with a loss of personhood, trapping them in "i need them to live and will be destroyed if they're not with me". which is incredibly self-destructive and deeply unhealthy, and not a foundation for a functional relationship.

the solution to that is not to glue them together and call it a day, it's to allow both of them the space and grace to grow as individuals and develop a healthy sense of self so the relationship is build on mutual respect AND self respect.

Love stories with the master in them because the plot is always more or less ‘we’ve been getting a divorce for the past x centuries and everything that happens here is collateral damage from that’

If the Neil Gaiman wasn't so wait and see, Aziraphale and Crowley would've been balls deep for sure
