on twitter, a viral thread started where people around the world shared their translations of “If I must die”, the last work of Dr Refaat Alareer also known as "the voice of Gaza". A beloved poet, teacher and life-long activist for Palestine, he was recently assassinated along with members of his extended family by a targeted Israeli air strike. His loss leaves a hole in the heart of palestinians all over the world.

Below the cut, I’ll be posting the translations of his poem, with links to the original posts. Unfortunately, tumblr limits posts to a maximum of 30 images. I will update when I can.

dick and bruce should always win charades bc a decade of being attached by the hip must make for some pretty niche inside jokes and insane levels of non verbal understanding

also they should get into a heated argument about trust and interference right after

a little divine appreciation

God Gale is endgame for Mayhew, and Mayhew couldn't be more pleased 😌

their mutual wizard disease brought them to some pretty low lows, but hey, ignore the tragedy, they're gods now! first order of business is a little worshiping at the altar 😏

Here's the sketch, which I also like:

Got majorly inspired by these lovely photos, one of which I used as a pose reference.

I don't often color these doodles but I really felt like it..... they're being sweet to each other ❤️

I’m done pretending you’re my sister, you’re not. You killed her. I’m not gonna let you stain her memory anymore.

Then stop me. ‘Cause no matter what I do, I just can’t seem to die.

Yall tried to jump me a couple years back for saying that Black people and POC aren’t the same, and to not ever include me in that POC category… lol. Just look at the breakdown of the election results by race and try and tell me I’m wrong. It’s Black people verses every fucking body.

missed opportunity to grant rachel the ability to experience history in all of it's glory. give me rachel who can detail the night the titanic sunk as if she was there. give me rachel who can tell you when and where you'll be buried. give me rachel who can recite every prophecy ever told because they belong to her now.

I will never recover from the knowledge that thymoma generally has a very high survival rate, and in most cases that it becomes fatal, the patient has unknowingly lived with the cancer for years. There's a chance that Wilson was sick for half the series and didn't even know it.

Random thought/question: what would your Tavs/Durge and their significant others like... legit fight about? Not bicker, not argue, but actually get mad and say things they don't mean and have to cool off and talk about it later when calmer heads prevail and they're able to apologize without it sounding forced?

this is such a great question that i needed a whole 24 hours to think about it akdhdjhd

i think gale and cyra probably have small things blow out of proportion (because honestly. kids and work and Tired) and then a Lot of stuff they haven't talked about comes up and it ends with 'how the fuck did forgetting to change the bedsheets turn into This'

i actually feel like dorian and astarion are pretty good 90% of the time but sometimes one of them is in a bad place and is like 'i actually really need to be left alone with this thing right now and i don't want to talk about it' and maybe they're not always great at taking the hint

ashe and halsin have never had a fight ever

from moving away to wiping away johns kisses, i raise you avoiding all affection.

No cuddles, no kisses, no nothing, can be a joke/prank or can be because reader is overwhelmed, who’s to say.

All we know is john is practically having a war with himself over it because he as absolutely no idea if it’s a prank or there’s something wrong and wants to know how to help

(John price is husband material and a cuddly but violent teddy bear and i will die on this hill defending it)

You and I will stand back to back on this hill, defending it.

Honestly when it comes to avoiding affection though, I think he can tell if it is because you’re overwhelmed. There are signs at that point and John is a very intuitive man.

If he realises you’re moving away for that reason? He’s backing off. He won’t touch or kiss you, and if he does he asks permission first. This man loves you to death and will not stand for him adding to your discomfort.

Part of his love language may be physical touch, but his whole love consists of making you happy. He’ll keep back if that is what it takes.

Snacks? You got it. Quiet? He’ll go do paperwork or read a book beside you if you let him. If you want to be left alone, he’ll do that too but periodically check on you.

There is affection in listening to each other’s needs. And John Price is an expert in it.

Now. If you do it to mess with him? Well he is indeed unsure whether it is another one of your recurring pranks, or you’re mad at him.

Given the lighter nature of the last few however, I do believe he’ll lean with you being mad at him.

However, an affection deprived John Price is a moody John Price.

If you were actually mad at him it would not help at all. He’ll see reason soon enough though and try to talk through it with you. However that becomes a problem if you do it for a prank.

You act completely normal, but when he sits beside you, you scoot away. You smile and laugh with him like always, but when he tries to hug you, you stop him and pretend nothing is wrong. And when he tries to kiss you?

This man is gonna look like a kicked puppy.

Do it for long enough and I can guarantee that he will start begging for answers, for just a hug, only a kiss, just for you to talk with him. Cause after all, there must be something going on.

Once again if you do finally reveal it to be a prank, boy howdy does he get grumpy.

Man’s mind was in a tizzy, trying to figure out what he did wrong, and all this time you were playing him for a fool.

He might hole himself up in his office for a bit, mad. But that won’t last. After all, he’s been deprived of affection for all this time, and he can’t deprive himself any longer.

He’d walk up behind you and just wrap his arms around your waist, pulling you in while burying his head against the back of your neck. “I’m still mad at you.” He’d grumble. But having you in his arms again is too good.

Expect a pouty and needy Price who won’t let you do shit. After all, you deprived him and now he wants to make up for the lost time.

Grab a snack, put on a movie, and prepare to be stuck to his hip for the foreseeable future.

gave pure vanilla a wife (he's been on my mind lately) and she's his biggest supporter 💖

I'm just gonna copy what I posted on twitter about her lol:

her name is kuromame cookie and she is pure vanilla's (future) wife <3

she was a traveling merchant until she decided to settle down in pure vanilla's kingdom

she's a chill gal most of the time, but she does have trouble trusting others (pv is there to help her don't worry)

things i think would happen if house of anubis had a TV-14 rating (in 2011):

- victor sr.'s decaying body would've actually been in the senet prison chamber

- joy's downward spiral in s2 includes a drug abuse storyline (into recovery by the end of the season)

- amber is so clearly a closeted lesbian in denial that by s3 everyone is saying "it's okay if you have something to tell us, we'll accept you <3" but she obliviously thinks its about fashion school

- mara's goth phase is amped up x10 and she also goes full wiccan stereotype (with black decor and candles etc)

- bag/room searches would be disguised as drug searches (and maybe somehow victor has secretly trained a dog to smell artifacts??)

- at least one physical bloody fight per season

- rufus dies the same way but eddie gets to lay a few punches on him first

- one of nina's unconvincing lies would be that someone has mono

- eddie wants to have sex but patricia is afraid of intimacy so she manufactures a situation where victor catches them making out to scare eddie. eddie jokingly suggests going in the tunnels but patricia pours a drink on him

- fabian and mick have the exact same gay moments but have to prove their manliness/straightness after

- sibuna accidentally discovers something sexual (like maybe young adult sarah's explicit letters, or nude drawings/photos in frobisher's study)

- there would be a drag show at some point (or at least a scheme involving drag)

- when alfie turns into a child his main gag would be thinking its hilarious that he can swear as much as he wants

- implied that fabian and mara fuck at the end of touchstone of ra

- jerome would be metrosexual

Hiiii!!!! 😊👋 So I only just started Kaiju no. 8!!! New to the fandom and not a manga reader. Idk what’s going to happen in the next episode—all I know is that Hoshina better not d*e lol.

Anyways!!! Obviously I am a huge Hoshina fan/simp!!! I really like your blog and I have enjoyed your Hoshina fics!!!!!! ���� And since your requests are open, I wanted to know if I could perhaps make one??? 👉👈

If so, I was wondering if you could do something sort of related to your “say it!” fic??? Like where Hoshina (+ reader) somehow bumps into the ex from operations you mentioned in the fic??? And reader gets SUPERRRRR jealous (lord knows I would be especially if said ex was really beautiful and smart) and insecure. Maybe reader acts a bit distant/moody after the encounter but once Hoshina realizes what’s up he immediately reassures reader and let’s them know how much he loves/cares for them???

Sorry if this request is weird or doesn’t make sense to you, I’ve honestly just been thinking about a similar scenario ever since reading that fic of yours 😭😭 anyways thank you so much for your time 🫶❤️ and please never stop writing, your fics are beautiful 💖💕

notes: hihi; thank you so much for your request; i hope that this is okay; you sent this in before the most recent episode but hoshina's a fairly important character to the story of kaiju no 8 overall so he'll be alright... i combined this with a slightly different ask which also surrounded jealousy but with okonogi; it's very briefly mentioned though.

jealousy as the crux

soshiro hoshina x gn!reader no warnings should apply, i think. wc: 837

hoshina always maintained rather easy conversation with a lot of people—friendly conversation that sometimes got the better of your self esteem when he teasingly doted on okonogi or otherwise. 

you’d tried not to bring it up, to not bother him—because envy and jealousy like that was an ugly emotion, of course. it wouldn’t be right to burden hoshina with them–mostly because you weren’t even sure how he’d react. he was plenty envious on his own, you think–key point on think. but it might have been for more reasonable things, surely. like the envious desire to become stronger, or something noble like that.

nothing quite like yours. 

but stumbling on hoshina’s ex was never on your list of priorities at all. 

so the fact that she was here—was her name amaya?—only made you more uncomfortable. you barely knew anything about her other than the fact that okonogi spoke her name with strained reverence, cautious to never bring it up around hoshina. hoshina seemed to be uncaring of it all, even so–as if he couldn’t be bothered to remember. 

she was smoking indoors, her eyes tired and weary. 

hoshina didn’t seem to tense up when talking to her, which strangely irked you more. 

“hoshina,” amaya says, approaching hoshina with a raised eyebrow. she pats his shoulder, and he chuckles.

“you look well,” hoshina murmurs. 

“hm. well as i’ll ever be.” her eyes flit to you, her eyes narrowing. you felt uncomfortable under her gaze, as if you were some unique kind of insect to be pinned up in a collection. “this your new partner? they’re cute.”

“hm?” hoshina laughs. “aren’t they?”

the compliment doesn’t feel good, somehow, as it usually does.

“thought you said you wouldn’t date again,” amaya says, dusting off some ash off the tip of her cigarette, taking another breath before blowing it away from the two of you. “not that we really were.” she snorts. “you were too much of a coward last time.”

“hey,” hoshina says, sounding mock-hurt. “i figured we were better off as friends.”

“hm.” amaya exhales. “whatever you say.”

“i wish you’d sound more enthusiastic about this,” hoshina retorts, laughing again. it’s the same laugh he has when he talks to okonogi, that same doting laughter–but it also wasn’t anything special. it was the same kind of laughter he had when he talked to you, though perhaps it was tinged with more fondness when he spoke to you.

if there was anything hoshina was, it might’ve just been annoyingly consistent.

"it's hard to be enthusiastic surrounding you. your sarcastic energy exhausts me," amaya drawls.

you turn away from the conversation at this point–and yet you can feel amaya staring daggers into the back of your head. 

“i’ll let the two of you finish this up,” you say, and your voice sounds far more obviously strained than you’d like for it to be. 

hoshina was allowed to talk to other people. but why did amaya irk you so much? was it just the irreverent way she spoke, the way she seemed to be watching you so intently for no reason? what the hell was her problem? as you stormed off, your footsteps grew angrier as you continued to mull over it. no, seriously! what was her problem? 

but what was yours, being jealous in the first place? you were being irrational–worried because you wanted hoshina’s attention for yourself but of course it wasn’t right to worry this badly about it to the point that envy would turn your stomach like this, create the brittling sensation in your heart. it wasn’t right, and the fact that you knew it wasn’t right made the whirling sense of bad in you feel worse.

you rub your face roughly, trying to shock yourself into trying to just be fucking normal.

“hey.”

hoshina’s voice is quiet when you turn around, and his face is contemplative, brows furrowed in worry.

“are you done? talking to amaya?” you ask.

“for now,” he says. his eyes focus on your face, concerned now. “are you okay?”

“i’m…”

the words die in your throat.

“i don’t want to be jealous,” you say weakly. “of whatever’s going on. but, i–”

hoshina’s hands are on your face before you can even finish your sentence, squishing your cheeks together.

“mm, i see.” hoshina blinks, humming. “why didn’t you just say so earlier?”

you blink.

“you’re not… mad?” you ask.

“mad?” hoshina raises an eyebrow, cocking his head. it looks cute. “should i be?”

“no,” you say. “i–or, i don’t know. maybe? yes?”

“which is it?” hoshina asks, a teasing smile on his face before his brow furrows a bit. “if you would have just told me earlier i could have easily just told you that there’s nothing going on between me and anyone else but you. i chose you. don’t forget that, okay?”

you blink.

“and i love you,” hoshina says, completely straightforwardly, with sure honesty. “don’t forget that.”

you nod, and he squeezes your face, leaning in to kiss you on the lips.
