#lovers never die

[kuchipachi]

lovers never die romantic carabiners came through 🫶🏽

[sereni-tea]

with this mind, with this thought,

one cannot find the beloved.

what wound is this—

for which no balm exists?

they find a cure for every pain,

yet none exists for mine.

i wander, thirsty, in endless seas,

yet no ocean can quench me.

in love’s marketplace, souls are sold,

i offer mine—yet none will take it.

i lost my yusuf in the land of canaan,

yusuf is found, but canaan is lost.

they say, “yunus is dead,”

but only the body dies—

lovers never perish.

~Yunus Emre

touya is halfway through his workday, grease up to his elbows, little jumpsuit half undone down to his waist, when iguchi comes in to tell him "someone's askin' for you out here".

he's not sure who it could be, but there's no telling, so he just decides to take a smoke break and wander out of the automotive garage, maybe imagining one of siblings out on the pavement.

but the minute he sees you, he stops. nearly drops his cigarette on a rough, "oh shit."

it's been a while since he's seen you, a year or two, and the packet of paper in your hand can only mean one, bullshit thing.

"nah, nah, nah, i ain't signing any papers," is how he greets you, shaking his head the minute you start up the path with a big, determined frown. touya doesn't run, but he sure twists on his heel and starts back up the path, too, as you start calling out his name.

practically all of his coworkers are watching when he comes back into view, not bothering to hide how nosy they're being. their audience makes you falter just a tad and touya clings onto it; anything to stop you.

"never a good sign when your wife comes to find you at work."

there's a long silence, from everyone. when he looks back at you—at your manilla folder and carefully stapled documents, your petition for divorce—your eyes are heavy and wet, almost the same way they were when the two of you stood in a courtroom, lying about your age in order to pledge until death do you part.

almost. now they're just sad.

from somewhere in the garage, toga calls out a bewildered, "you have a wife?" that makes him feel a way he can't understand, both amused and devastated all at once.

your wedding ring isn't on your finger, but if he stares long enough, he can maybe see the difference in color of your skin, a former tan-line that's begun to fade.

he sold his for stuff he shouldn't have been buying, stuff that ruined him and you and your marriage, a long time ago.

but touya only smiles, and calls back, "yeah, i do."

i’ll never shut up about the fact that peeta never stopped loving katniss when he was hijacked.

i’ll admit it’s a romantic notion that he fell in love with her twice, but he never fell out of love in the first place.

he was tortured and conditioned to see her as a threat, which is part of why when his instincts of fight or flight (fight in his case) were muted by the morphling in 13, all that he was left with was confusion.

because why would the girl that he loves—she who had been actively fighting against his wishes by intending to sacrifice herself for him in the quell—ever turn on him?

why does he remember her as a mutt, threatening his life, when he also remembers the softness of her skin, the sweet scent of her hair, the way her lips part ever so slightly when she sleeps in his arms?

why does he see this small, unassuming girl as a terrifying creature, when he also recalls when he’d wake up from a nightmare of losing her, only for an overwhelming sense of relief to wash over him when he realises she’s still pressed against his chest from the night before?

it obviously takes him time to sort through the traumatic memories he relates to katniss, especially when some of them are real (i.e. her dropping the tracker jacker nest, her drawing her bow on him when she panics and thinks he’s going to kill her when they withdraw the 2 victors amendment, her revealing her feelings weren’t what she’d portrayed them to be), but the memories are there nonetheless, along with the feelings.

thanks for coming to my ted talk.

im not sure how many of you are imploding (if any of you) but i enjoyed the conclusion. it fit, it made sense. no happy ending for this relationship was ever promised so i never expected one in the first place. the whole agatha + nicky + rio back story was absolutely tragic and the way it ties into the myth of the Road was masterful and also ghost agatha is such an awesome concept that i can't even be mad about it. im getting closer to that agatha-wanda mentor-mentee arc every day.

does bury your gays even exist when one is literal death incarnate and the other is a ghost? doubtful

doomed yuri you will always be loved by me
