#its its so hurtful and aching

[hum-suffer]

I was listening to a podcast of Samay Raina and listening to him talk about how it feels to be a Kashmiri Pandit now.

You're disconnected from your culture, you don't know the food, you don't know your native place, you barely know your language, the blood of your family is spilled on the ground you were born on and you haven't even seen it. And you're not even allowed to talk about it. You feel like you're an endangered specie. Your culture is dying out and you know your children will not learn your language and culture. You know no hacks or specialities and nooks or crannies of your home town. Your culture is dying and you're just staring at it, helpless. The place where your house used to be is now ruined. You can barely recognise anything. Your home isn't here but it is your home and you can't do anything about it. You return to your home after decades, after forced exile, and. And it's levelled. Ruined. Your home is no more.

TIL "Lay On Hands" is a paladin healing skill and I am blessed by this knowledge.

My favorite head-canon, is that Merlin spends so much time healing and taking care of Arthur, that he forgets to do it for himself.

Arthur, a seasoned warrior, somehow has very few scars on his body. A few scuff marks on his knees and a few marks on the side of his neck, maybe a few knife nicks along his arms from training. But other than that, nothing. It's almost inhuman how this knight who lives on the battlefield has such a lack of scars.

Merlin, on the other hand, is covered in them. Burn marks covering the tips of his fingers, deep jagged cuts that dug into his back and arms. Scraps and cuts cover his legs and arms, and a small patch of discoloration on his forehead that never quite heald right. He goes to great lengths to keep these hidden. It wouldn't make sense for a meek servant to have so many brutal scars. He covers his body even during the hot months with long sleeve shirts and thick scarves so no one will ask any questions.

The reason behind this is that Merlin will always meticulously heal any injuries Arthur faces. Always being thorough so they won't scar over. He knows the way scars ache during the cold or thunderstorms, the way the pain seems to seep into your bones. He doesn't want Arthur to suffer through that. But when he gets injured, he does just enough to stop the bleeding. He lives with a physician. Why would he do more than that? He'll get them looked at eventually... (he never does).

Point is, Merlin does the bare minimum to keep himself alive while he goes the extra mile for Arthur to keep him comfortable.

thinking about the fact that baby will is SO SMALL for his age..... what made you come up wi th this devastating headcanon

im just imagining cass. eighteen. terrified about her future. will she have to leave camp? what will she do? she can't go home. camp is her home. and then that very summer this little kid stumbles into camp, glowing lyre above his head before he even crests half-blood hill, can't be more than six years old. crying and clinging to his mother's shirt, scraped and bleeding from whatever monster chased them here. and immediately her worries take a step back, and she tugs this little kid from his mother and hugs him as she walks backwards, crying and pretending not to, promising her son she'll be back as soon as it's safe, and this little kid clings onto her and looks to her with big, blue eyes, red-rimmed, and suddenly she's got this baby brother to watch out for, much younger than any of her other siblings, and it turns out he's chatty and open and endlessly energetic and bad with boundaries and social queues, and he's eight, actually, but he was a preemie and spent every year of his life in the back of his mama's tour van. and she and diana and lee and michael are the older kids at camp, although not by much, and they look at each other and nod and know they will be making sure this little kid with a smile as bright as the sun will grow right as they know he's meant to with his big feet and stumbling limbs.

how do people differentiate between different types of pain? how do you know if the pain you are feeling is a pulsing, a throbbing a stabbing pain or an ache? Like? ive had people ask me what kind of pain something feels like, and i just describe it the best i can, but then people look at me confused, and i get the feeling like ive said the wrong thing in response to what im actually feeling?? like?? how do you KNOW what the word is for the thing?
