[ ❌ ] is there something your muse struggles with that they might never overcome? what is it? why do they have so much trouble with it?

TW DEATH / PARENTAL DEATH

For Johnny it’s controlling his powers. For as much as he loves them, they’re dangerous, destructive, and staying in control is something he always has to think about. His greatest fear is hurting someone - or rather, hurting someone again. In high school, the worst thing he’s ever done was to lose control during a fight. The rival of his school days, Mike Snow hated Johnny and Johnny hated him right back, but then he ruined Mike’s life in a furious moment of lapsed control, burning him and leaving him scarred forever.  They’re on good terms now, but that’s stayed with Johnny. It’s something that only Ben really understands - what it’s like to be afraid of yourself, of what you can do, of who you might hurt, without even meaning it. 

He’s always dreamed about people burning, long before he got his powers, going back all the way to when he was eight years old and Sue woke him in the middle of the night and told him their mother was dead. Car crash, Sue said, and didn’t go into more details, but Johnny found out later anyway, that Mary Storm was really paralyzed in the crash, and couldn’t move as she suffocated and burned alive when the car caught fire. Years later, in space, when Johnny flamed on for the first time, he thought he was going to die the same way. Part of it felt right, like he’d always expected to burn out fast. 

But then he didn’t, and then he loved his powers, and then they made his life into something that actually mattered, so it became so much easier to compress the memory of his mother down until he barely remembered her face, let alone the agonizing way she must have died. It’s selfish to forget, he knows, but that’s Johnny to the core. Textbook selfish asshole, so he thinks. Except he can only forget so much, and never what his powers can do, what he can do, if he isn’t careful, every minute, every second. In those first weeks of getting his powers, he was afraid to even be near other people, and it’s a fear that has never truly gone away. It’s just part of him, like breathing is: he will always be dangerous to anyone who gets too close. Maybe it’s better for them if he doesn’t.

Making photography degree work on the loss of self to the mental health system.

Over a year since I discharged myself from all services, a month after my last 136.

Putting myself into debt with private trauma therapy but I would rather struggle financially than face the stress, panic and self-doubt that mental health services gave me.

I am not okay with being another patient with lists of symptoms and diagnoses, experiences and reactions all but dismissed.

Though chameleons change their color from time to time, they are still chameleons.

Though I am gay, it does not change the fact that I am still human.

Never dismiss a dress just cos of the size. Try it on see how you feel in it. In the first image taken late 2017, I felt pretty awesome in this size 16 dress from Quiz despite being a size 20. Last weekend I wore it again this time with a corset and I look completely different. I know I have lost some inches but I'm still a size 18/20. Point is I would have dismissed this dress in the shop cos it was a size 16 thinking it would never fit me. You never know till you try. I think I looked awesome then and just as awesome now...but I will never again judge an item of clothing without trying it on. #morethanalabel #quizclothing #tryit #plussizefashionblogger #psootd #ootd #ootn #plussizeclothing #psbloggers #plussizefashionblogger #plussizemodel #fashion https://www.instagram.com/p/BvCzhcFn71I/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12hnoxs6klcq0

2013 this kiddo graduated from #LejeuneHighSchool with an actual graduation certificate. Not a certificate of completion. This was a HUGE accomplishment! He was pushed ALOT by many in his life to keep going, to keep trying. I love this #picture - it's more than just a picture. It says alot more than most would understand. Those that know these two would definitely understand their bond and what this photo signifies. #todayinpictures #specialneeds #autism #devilpups #camplejeune #militarybrat #MarineCorps #microcephaly #seizures #ThroughOurLives #siblings #siblinglove #dontdismyability #morethanalabel https://www.instagram.com/p/CQD3J6Frcgl/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’ve been called fag, gay boy, sissy.. Labels are put on us to make someone else feel comfortable or superior, we put labels on ourselves at times out of insecurity & it limits us. We are all #MoreThanALabel. We are humans, spirits, & we have too much to offer to be limited by labels! I am proud to be part of the #LGBTQ community & someone who looks for #SocialGood causes I can lend my voice to. I’m a strategist, influencer, producer, but above all I am ME & that’s pretty great! Who are you? Thanks, @unite_uk1 🏳️‍🌈❤️🌈🦄💙 (at New York, New York)

Sending a tonne of love, light and support to @danni__missvfinalist2019 with her #AllOfMe campaign. Fantastic campaign Danni keep up the great work xx We are all worth way more than any labels. We are all worthy of love and respect. We are all battling struggles that we may not feel ready to share. We all have good days and bad days. We all focus way too much energy on the negatives and forget to shout about our positives. #MsInternationalCurve2017 #campaign #onlinecampaign #morethanalabel #beyou https://www.instagram.com/p/BuoceXHnC6z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jcn855meg5ud
