TOKUSATSU VALENTINE’S: day 5 ➵ my valentine 🌸(ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ)🌸

[vaguely-concerned]

still thinking about julian's just like... anubis-ass weighing of garak's heart in the wire. and him judging it unworthy of oblivion, even while said heart squirms and kicks and screams every step of the way as he gently pulls it away from the crocodile's open maw. sick and twisted honestly. something something surrendering to mercy not because you believe yourself worthy of it but because you trust who it came from more than yourself. ok fuck me I guess I have to live then: the elim garak story

I think this is one of my favorite lines from the Wraith route because of (imo) how much the meaning changes depending on if you got there via Spectre or Nightmare. For Spectre, it honestly strikes me as a genuine question. Why are you doing this to her? If you're on the Spectre route, you presumably already know the Narrator can't really be trusted, since you had to reject his reward to get here. What are you hoping to gain from continuing to hurt her? For Nightmare, it honestly just makes me sad. As the Shifting Mound describes her, "She desires only companionship, but the only thing she knows is how to hurt." This line feels like a plea from someone who genuinely doesn't understand why you keep rejecting her. She wants to be with you, but she just can't understand how to do that in a way which doesn't hurt you.

So, we all know that Cas branded Dean’s soul with the handprint. And then in his last scene left a bloody handprint on Dean’s jacket.

But, have we ever considered that this last handprint was Cas letting dean go? Like, literally removing the handprint brand he left on his soul? That it’s Castiel saying, “I love you so much that I’m dying for you and freeing you from the claim I made on you. I know you are not mine even if I will always be yours and that’s ok. Please live a good life now that my burden is gone from you.”

And if that’s the case, do you think Dean could feel it? The mark being gone? Do you think that left an emptiness nothing else could fill and that’s one of the reasons he was so fine with dying? Because for the first time since he met him, there was truly nothing of Cas left on Earth or with Dean?

It's a time-honoured tradition- every time Sam comes across Izzy (and Ed) in their travels, he asks Izzy to marry him. And every time, Izzy turns him down.

At this point, Sam is asking more for the sake of it than any belief Izzy will ever say yes, a remnant of childhood dedication touched with 30 years of heartbreak and regret- though even now, a small part of him still holds out hope. Sam's promises have only got more extravagant over the years, from a job as his first mate, to a captaincy, a fleet at his command, a whole fucking island if that's what Izzy wants- but he knows it isn't though, not really. If Izzy was ever going to agree to marry him, to leave his life and go with Sam, it wouldn't be for anything Sam could offer him. Izzy never did care for flashy shows of wealth, for a ship or to be captain. The only thing that ever mattered to him was loyalty given, and loyalty shown in return. 

It all comes to a head after Stede left and came back, after Izzy lost a toe, lost his leg. Sam hasn't seen him since before things with Ed started to really slide off the rails, before stress permanently set into the lines of Izzy’s face. So, when he sees a dishevelled man with a hoof for a leg in a no-name port, he doesn't even consider the idea that he might know him. It's only when he turns towards him, and Sam catches a glance at those oh too familiar tattoos, he realises this is Izzy, his Izzy, that stands before him.

Knowing Izzy's discomfort with pity, he doesn't treat him any differently than he would in years gone by, positioning himself in Izzy's line of sight before approaching and sweeping him up into a bone crushing hug. 

“Israel-goddamn-Hands!” he exclaims, as Izzy grumbles back a begrudging “Samuel-fucking-Bellamy”, a tradition almost as old as their friendship itself. Izzy might not hug him back, but he can’t keep the corner of his mouth from twitching, just for a second.

(If Sam holds Izzy a little tighter and a little longer than usual, well. That's his business)

By the time Sam lets go, most of the crew has appeared in the town square, drawn in by the commotion. They may have given Izzy his leg and welcomed him as one of them, but still there’s an underlying tension, with nobody quite ready to set aside everything that happened before the Kraken. Seeing him cosying up to an unknown man sets everyone on edge, unsure whether to come to their first mate’s aid, or to assume that they've been betrayed once again.

When Ed sees that the yelling was Sam, his hand goes tense where it's held in Stede's. He knows the routine, has seen it more times than he can count, but as he watches them part he realises that this is the first time in a long time he's unsure of what Izzy's response will be.

Knowing that something’s different, knowing that Izzy's feeling vulnerable already, Sam doesn't go for the same flashy proposal he’s been giving for years. He doesn't promise Izzy the world, he doesn't cause a scene (or, any more of a scene than he already has, anyway). He looks at the fractured man in front of him, takes his face in his hands, and says the exact same thing to him he said when they were little more than boys. “Israel, I have to ask you. I know what you'll say, but I have to try. Come with me. Marry me and sail away with me. I'll keep you safe”

And Izzy… hesitates. He glances over at Ed, at Stede, and says to Sam “...We’re staying in port for a week. Ask me again then”

That's the moment Sam knows there is something deeply, horribly, wrong. He's not just looking at an Izzy who got seriously injured in a fight and is struggling to cope, this is something so much bigger than that- and that Ed has something to do with it. Izzy wouldn't even be considering leaving if he didn't. Whether it was negligence or something more sinister, Sam doesn't yet know, but he intends to find out.

just like with jack, i think ppl make roger too evil in post-island fics! they either make him evil murderer grrrr or like an active sadist that beats kittens up or smth. i think ppl forget WHY he did the things he did on the island: there were no consequences.

in the real world, he wouldn’t get away with hurting kids or animals or whatever. he would have consequences, whether it be detention of suspension or jail, and he’d learn that, well, he’s not on the island anymore. sadism is not societally acceptable in the real world.

now this is just a hc and all but i think that roger has aspd or at least a childhood version of it, and an important part of that disorder is masking. he feels no guilt for what he did on the island, but he can’t show that. he can’t act on his urges anymore. he just pretends he’s some quiet choir kid who feels a normal amount of emotions and doesn’t want to hurt people. he’d probably live the rest of his life like that; pretending he’s “normal”. ofc this would have irreversible damage to his mental health but at least he’s not hurting anyone, right? well. he’d probably hurt them verbally. a lot. and ruin relationships. but at least no one’s bleeding!

also….in regards to ships…i feel like he wouldn’t LOVE his partner, but he would certainly feel some sort of affection and respect towards them. same with pets. even tho he hunted animals on the island, i think he’d like having pets. he doesn’t need to hurt them to survive, after all. he’d never hurt his poor cat :3

once again….if lotf happened in an era more open to therapy and, well, sociopaths, roger could’ve lived life relatively fine. like he’d still hurt ppl emotionally, but he might actually want to change and work on himself if there weren’t a huge stigma. probably not…but still. THESE POOR BOYS🙁🙁🙁

in my heart i don't think keyleth dates anyone again after vax but not because she's endlessly heartbroken or anything, just because she is grey aro/ace and never really wants that again. she makes new friends and new family and moves on and is perfectly content. but he remains her only partner
