Wow I NEED that fic so bad you don’t even know. I'm surely going to be dreaming about this lol. How do you see their story end? Would it be a 'everyone is happy and we're all friends' type of ending where aegon and amara plan their double-wedding with alys and aemond?
And would someone die in this?? If you had to choose one character to kill off, who would it be and how would it fit into the story 🧐 don’t know why but lately i've been craving some murder mistery stories so maybe I would kill off aemond?? And since the whole world has been talking about aegon being (very obviously) into amara and jealous of aemond, on top of being an addict doing crazy stuff all the time, he would look very very guilty..
This went kind of off topic lol oopsies
Ehehehe....you might not like this answer but....I'd kill Amara.
She would HAUNT that fucking narrative like the ghost to end all ghosts. I don't really think of endings tbh, and mine tend to be very shitty (I think Burning Jasmine was my only happy one in a long time). Alys is going to string Aemond along till the end of time and then suddenly cut him loose altogether, so no, he's not getting his happy ending with her. Maybe if Aegon's feeling kind in later years, he might let Aemond climb into the bed for a cuddle with him and Amara idk (granted the Targaryen incest thing is in this AU because everyone's like...okay we get that you're in a rock band and it's all grit and sex, but ya'll are brothers, why are you grinding up on each other like that).
But yeah if Amara did die, it'd probably be a murder-suicide at Aegon's hands tbh (think Sid and Nancy). And then for years, there are documentaries and true crime Youtube videos lasting 2 hours, and reddit forums, and conspiracy theories, and just picking apart wtf was wrong with these two people to implode that spectacularly.
The rabbit hole would get deep, because everyone in Amara's life knows she was very much a good girl and wouldn't touch drugs (except weed) with a bargepole. But the fans turn her into a Nancy Spungen/Courtney Love figure, and accuse her of driving Aegon to harder drugs (he goes from coke to heroin in a pretty short space of time when they get together). Truth is, he got her into the dope, and it went downhill from there. They'd have entire weeks of not getting out of bed, barely eating, and instead fucking and getting high at the same time. Aegon comes up with his best work during that time, mostly because he's not sober, and he's constantly in the presence of a muse that makes his head crash into a kaleidoscope of orgasmic proportions.
But yeah, they definitely end up dead.

LOOOOVE ur clapback to that asshole who was slandering us on thet meth/heroin post and also ur so right…. as an opi junkie there is such a big fucking difference btween tweakers n dopefiends. im 6 weeks clean off of IV fetty rn and i just wanted to say thank u for standing up for our community bc as u know ppl enjoy shitting all over us and treating us like we r subhuman and lesser than so i was rlly happy to see ur comments on a post like that bc ppl truly dont understand what we go thru w this disease. please STAY SAFE!!!! and much love <3

Im very much a recreational psychonaut, but like 100% at this point weed controls my anger, I do not think I can go without it for long long periods though I do take tolerance breaks. However, I have strict rules to ensure moderation. Many wont see being a stoner as troubling, but tbh a lot of stoners I see are really, really troubling.
My dad was an addict, probably still is, my mother was - and for her unfortunately she quit too late.
In general details of addiction, you and I are much different with our addictions, how we view them. Much of that is truly personalized anyway. But we are the same in that we arent treated nicely by anyone outside the addiction or drug perspective. Im very glad you are doing what you need for you.
Im happy compared to myself a year ago in which I couldnt admit I had an issue. And that means something to me

ive seen people hc that eddie sometimes takes harder drugs like coke just because he probably tried ket for a few times and...its not even implied in canon and we know his domain is weed and sometimes a bit of ket or prescription pills but i dont think eddie would ever want anything to do with harder stuff like coke or crack or stuff. it would ruin his character for me tbh and these hc make me anxious. do you think eddie ever had anything to do with "harder" drugs? :(
Okay first of all, CANON is:
Eddie sells drugs
what he sells seems to be mainly weed, as you said
in his stash with the stronger stuff we see Special K and a few prescription meds (does anyone recognize any of them?)
he searched for half an eternity for his stash with the stronger drugs -> he doesn't use or sell the stronger drugs on a regular basis
Harder drugs is a pretty wide term.
If by harder drugs you mean drugs which (can) cause addiction, like heroin, crack or meth: I'm 100% certain he doesn't/wouldn't take any of these. He doesn't have substance abuse issues. He's not addicted to anything apart from maybe cigarettes (though honestly I don't even think he's addicted to cigarettes either, he was way too chill with Robin taking away his cigarettes. I'm getting more aggressive if someone tries to take a sip of my coffee 😂).
However, in the eighties, party drugs were pretty common so I think it's safe to say Eddie tried some party drugs before from time to time, but the way I perceive him, I don't think he uses them on a regular basis. Plus, the boi has to plan campaigns and learn new metal songs on his guitar and modify his clothes so ain't nobody got time for that😂
But please keep in mind: canonically, we don't know anything apart from the fact that he sells weed and Special K. Everything else are headcanons - and if you want to headcanon Eddie as never having taken any kind of drug apart from weed, that's just as valid as someone who headcanons that he has.
Eddie is the sweetest, kindest, most caring and empathic character in the entire show - you shouldn't let anyone else's headcanons about something that doesn't even say anything about his personality ruin him for you. If the thought is causing you anxiety, you should consider blocking the keywords or blogs where you encountered these headcanons 🖤

I'm going to be honest here, the 80s were a very liberal period for drugs.
I've had the conversation before with my own mother who was the age of the teens back in the day, and 'party drugs' or things that weren't crack or heroin were pretty heavily used depending on the scene you were in even in the younger crowds.
That doesn't mean Eddie would be a junky or a heavy hard drug user, but it does mean he's probably dabbled in things before. Especially since he's in the metal scene.
Rock in general, even now a days, can be a pretty drug heavy if you're into the parties, and parties were a huge thing for many bands and artists in those rock scenes. (Rock as in the entire encompassing genre that fall below and around it as well.)
I'm of course, not an expert and only know a good portion of my information from my mother, however he's probably at least tried coke before, acid, stuff like that. "party drugs"
Though you can look at it this way, he's probably just a pothead seeing as 1. He's in a fairly small, rural community. 2. He's a huge nerd (not that being a nerd doesn't mean you don't do drugs.) who probably doesn't have a lot of money outside of what he makes selling weed. And 3. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who wants to touch harder drugs in general.
So me personally thinks he's probably tried party drugs once or twice, be his personality and actions during the show doesn't give me the vibes of someone who actively searches out hard drugs or cares for them.
He's smart and likes being witty and reactive, so getting into those sorts of drugs would really drag him down and he just doesn't seem like that kind of dude.

Hi there! Can you tell me 2 things: firstly, what does 'drugs are decriminalised in Portugal' actually look like? and secondly, are CBD gummies or drinks allowed in Portugal?
Hello friend!
Decriminalisation of drugs here means that possession of drugs up to a certain amount (can't remember how much tbh) is not considered a crime, but a public health issue.
So, what happens is, for certain drugs, if you're caught in possession of them by a cop, instead of being held in jail, given a trial within 48h and then sentenced, you are redirected towards rehabilitation. I am saying this from memory now but I think the three things you get are: 1) a Lawyer that will handle your case, 2) a social worker, 3) a representative of a commission dedicated to rehabilitation and safe drug consumption etc.
What happens next varies from case to case. Since the person in possession of drugs is first approached by this commission whose purpose is basically to dissuade drug use and made of people ready to assess every case individually, the "offender" could end up doing a sort of a... process of rehab of sorts (they don't necessarily send anyone to rehab, again, it depends on the case), do community service or pay a fine. It depends on each person's case.
If you are caught with an amount above the limit imposed by the law, then it is considered distribution.
I must add that when I say "if the cops catch you", that includes buying. If you are caught buying a small amount (within the limit stated by the law), it is evidently seen as drugs bought for personal consumption. The main point of this decriminalisation process was to remove the stigma attached to drug consumers (whether they are addicts or not), move them towards the correct resources that will provide help, and make a distinction between possession distribution.
For question two, I actually didn't know haha I do know cannabis is still illegal just as other drugs are (to be clear, the drugs that were decriminalised are stuff like cocaine, marijuana, heroin, etc. The ones that are still considered very much illegal, no matter the amount you're found in, fall on the "date rape" spectrum, even though some are used recreationally, like GHB. I think I am not mistaken about this, I looked this up a year ago so this comes from memory cause I can't recreate the steps I took back then to find the exact answer to this question lmao). However, medicinal cannabis apparently exists and is sold in pharmacies (?? had no idea about this. It was apparently approved smack in the middle of covid, that's probably why I didn't hear about it lmao).
However, legalisation of cannabis remains an ongoing issue. Year in, year out, someone brings this issue into the spotlight, and there have been loads of campaigns (they're still around tho) for its legalisation, specifically for personal use and consumption.
Now whether or not you could get CBD gummies... gonna be honest, I sincerely don't know. There are stories dedicated to like, CBD stuff and so, but I don't know the legalities around it or what sort of products they sell (what I mostly see is like... tea? and spray? stuff like that).
I looked it up and was honestly surprise there are A BUNCH OF STORES that sell way more than I was aware of (I was so out of the loop here, the last few years whenever I worked in Lisbon, it was always downtown, where you are FLOODED daily with the warning to not buy weed from dudes there because it's actually crushed bay leaves, and it never occurred to me to just... check this out lmfao)
Like, this store sells weed brownies and other sort of edibles, so CBD gummies idk but apparently ou can get that sort of stuff in Lisbon!
(also thanks for asking me this is definitely knowledge I needed to brush up on in case a tourist asks me, and now I know haha)

@hokkaido-fox​ @ravenarld​
Pure. Chaos.
Sebastian earned himself a week off and decided to travel and see more than just 19th century France.  Comte and Leonardo are out doing married couple things.  Meaning no one responsible is at the mansion.  Mom and Dad left and Arthur goes PARTY TIME
Its 10 am and he’s drinking.  But did he even stop from the night before?  We may never know.  So many alcoholics under one roof. 
Isaac is like “It’s not even noon. Calm down”  Arthur just needs to drown his sorrows alright-
Theo is on the same boat as Arthur and Dazai is like Alcohol?
Napoleon is like “You know what.  We’re responsible.  Let’s do it”
Mozart overhears it all and is like “No one in this mansion is responsible”  Jean’s basically like “yeah, um.  You guys do that.  I don’t want a part of it” and follows Mozart to the music room
Que Arthur and Dazai appearing in either side of Isaac trying to convince him that they'll have fun. But baby is filled with anxiety and just backs away and leaves to go to his room. He is nOT going partake in the chaos that is about to unfold, plus that means socialize with more than one person. You live with these people, calm down baby.
Vincent is a social drinker but that’s about it.  He’s not into parties and even Theo can’t convince him to stay for one.  So he just quietly leaves the room to go back to painting in his room.  I can see Isaac and Vincent being friends and hanging out tbh
So now it is Arthur, Theo, Dazai, and Napoleon just grabbing all the alcohol and mixing drinks, and what is a party without drugs.
I roughly researched this bc all Google was giving me was American and Britain history, so bare with me with the accuracy of this next part
Opium and morphine were popular medical drugs at the time, but then again so was heroin.  Also some place said that it was Napoleon that ended marijuana being legal?? But even ikevamp Napoleon says he’s nothing like what the books say about him, sooo.  1870 Vin Mariani (Coca wine) is for sale throughout France, containing 7.2 mg cocaine per ounce of wine.
So take all of that as you will, they smoking I’ll tell you that.  I’ll leave that one up to your imagination.
Eventually there is women and more alcohol.  Isaac and Vinc both walk into the music room where Mozart and Jean are, and at first Mozart is like “wtf are you doing in here” then the smell of weed probably enters the room and Mozart and Jean are like “ew wtf are they doing” and Isaac is like “I think we should leave so we don’t get wrapped up in this”
And Mozart refuses to go into town, but Vinc says they’ll just stay in the garden or something.  Somehow they convinced Mozart to go outside and next thing they knew Isaac is calling Mama Comte.
Vincent is playing with Brush don’t @ me
Comte answers and Isaac is like “Arthur, Theo, Dazai, and Napoleon are drinking and doing drugs and they have women over” and then Mozart in the background is like “We told them it was a bad idea!”
Picture this.  Isaac on the phone, Mozart next to him because he doesn’t think Isaac is explaining the situation well enough.  Vincent is in the background holding Brush and introducing him to Jean, and Jean is like “oh. that’s a weird cat” but pets Brush anyway and feeds him.
But Mozart is basically yelling in Isaacs ear and he’s telling him to shut up but also telling Comte and he and Leonardo need to get back home before there’s more chaos.
Comte just sighs.  Leonardo could hear the whole thing and is like “Damn, having a party without me”  It’s dark out by the time the two of them get back.  The four are still in the garden.
Vinc somehow convinced Isaac that Brush won’t just him and that they’d be good friends, so now Brush is on Isaacs lap eating some snacks that were in Vinc’s apron.  Jean brought Cherie (???  I read Cherie somewhere but some things say Sherry but I think that’s a translation thing??? idk), and Mozart is just sitting on the fountain.
Leonardo and Comte didn't get home until the sun was already setting and as soon as Mozart sees them he yells "WHAT TOOK YOU TWO SO LONG"
Leonardo is basically like "before you go in there and cause an uproar, I'm gonna join them" and takes the groceries inside. The man just wants some alcohol and drugs, probably just takes it back to his room after putting the food away. Such a good husband
Comte looks at the four in the garden and sighs. At least some of his kids are responsible. But they could have actually done something to stop this.
Also, Leonardo made sure the four inside didn't see him so that they didn't know Mama Comte was about to come in and beat their ass.
Think you can't ground four 100+ year old men? Think again. Just take away booze really. Theo, Arthur and Dazai would be like, no wait- not the alcohol.
Damn alcoholics
Comte expected better from Napoleon.
They're grounded for a month and aren't allowed to leave the mansion.

A list of Hollywood things that may be what real life is in the US and the equivalent situation in Spain. Feel free to add your own country. I’d love to know of other places :)
This is going to be long, so the TL:DR is there are many things I know about the US because of the movies, landscapes, hobbies, cultural things, everyday life things and sometimes they feel very normal or like something that happens in movies, no in between. They are neither and this is a list of differences I can think of in regards to Spain.
Click there to find out, there are pictures and all.
- Going to school by car, by bike or in a yellow bus: We either walk or your parents drive you (specially when you are too young to go by bus on your own or your parents are overprotective). Not really bike because bike lanes are a mess (in that they don’t exist) in Spain, it is dangerous. There are school buses if students come from places that are further but they’re average travel buses and once you are 16, you cannot use them. You have to go to school from 16 to 18 in public transportation because school is not mandatory after 16, it is understood it’s your choice. You may have a motorbike at 16 but I don’t know anybody who went to school in it. All of this is extra -fun- if you live in a village as in there may not be any bus service if it’s a small place or you live far apart from the village.
The picture is an average school bus with a woman in charge of picking up children. It looks like it’s in the country or maybe, the outside neighbourhoods of a city.
Tumblr media
- Dating: we don’t date. If you like someone, you find a way to hang out with them and hope for the best. It may be more or less clear what is going on but it’s not a date, just a plan. You go to a restaurant/movies/theater... when you _are_ in a relationship or with friends. Not a date. The confusing hell it is to watch people saying things like “It’s a date! I’ll pick you up at 8!” Ok. Maybe they pick you up but still not a date. Also: not a problem if you have sex straight away or if you don’t feel like it (because there is no social obligation around it, no date). It seems to be a big deal when you are 30 and “never been in a date” but the first time I was in a date was with my current boyfriend _after_we started going out (I was 30 btw). I met him on a dating app, btw. Still don’t consider the first time we met “a date”. “Going on a date” maybe a thing but still probably based on movies.
- Prom: very confusing. Specially the part where you _have_ to have a _date_ (again, not something we do ever). If we do a ball (IF, also it wouldn’t be a “ball” as such but a “party”), it is actually expected to go on your own, with your friends. It would be a massive social pressure to go with the boy you like (with whom nothing happened prior to this) in front of people. Nah, you either go with your partner that you already have or with mates. But generally speaking, there is no “prom” or “graduation” in high school. In my high school, we spoke with a restaurant to have dinner, invited the teachers we liked and after that, went to local bars to party until the next morning when we went to see what grades we had received for the year. It was done like this so those who failed the exams could still party with the rest.
As for uni, maybe some other colleges do something but we didn’t (mainly because I studied translation and half of the people in my year were abroad that year). I don’t even have a picture of my graduation. People usually dress smart and then wear a band with the colour of their faculty.
The picture is graduation from Tourism (if I’m not mistaken). It shows a group of girls on a scene, all of them smartly dresses with an orange band on their shoulders. Their classmates are sitting on the grades of this “theater thing”, all wearing the same band.
Tumblr media
- High School: in general, it’s very confusing. It seems to me like there is some kind of obsession with high school years given all the movies about high school and all the “childhood sweetheart” stories out there. For us, it is quite an irrelevant period of our lives, almost like school. You do it because you have to but often, life (and interesting things) happen AFTER high school. Our high schools don’t have lockers, you just carry 5 books in a backpack. But you have your class, only a couple of things take place in other rooms (maybe Science in the lab, or some optional subjects). Public schools close once the classes are over and all the activities you may want to do, you do them somewhere else (paying for them, most of the time). There are no School teams of anything, you don’t play against other schools either (maybe private schools do, I don’t know). In my high school, I remember for Spring we organised like a week of activities and you would sign up with your mates if anything. You and 2 others would make a basketball team to play in the Basketball league against other people in your class but it isn’t “The Official Team”. I remember there was a card tournament for the game of Mus (typical from Madrid). Also, we don’t have The Popular, The Band Kid, The Nerds, etc. clearly separated. There is bullying (but our toilets are not full of water so you cannot drown there) but either you are normal or you are the weird kid, so to say. I was a weird kid who suffered some light bullying and then I went to average, with no bullying. Overall, everyone speaks with each other and unless it’s a severe case of bullying (which there are), there are no underdogs or closed groups. We don’t have yearbooks AT ALL and this “Clown of the class” thing? I personally find it borderline problematic.
Picture of an average high school in Spain. It’s separated in two halfs. On the left, there is a couple of people carrying backpacks in a corridor. It’s quite dark, a window at the end giving light to the corridor. On the right, one of the doors of the corridor is open and shows a classroom. There are lots of green tables and chairs, all of them in pairs. At the end there is a blackboard. The light comes from the window.
Tumblr media
- Alcohol consumption and other drugs: We can drink at 18 and it’s not a big deal if you get drunk. By the time you’re 18, your parents have seen you drunk more than once. You may have gotten drunk with your parents. You’ve seen them drunk more than once. Spain is quite an alcoholic society, tbh. BUT we do not like aggressive drunkards or dependant drunkards. You can get drunk but you have to be able to still be nice. Your friends will stop hanging out with you if you get drunk too often, too heavy or too badly (and you will find those who follow you, obvs). We do it to socialize and have fun, not to knock out. Weed is partially legal (I don’t really know the law, you can get fined for carrying but not arrested, you can buy paraphernalia in shops, there are cannabis clubs, people can smoke on the street in the open, you can grow it at home, it can be used for medical purposes or recreational). Other drugs are illegal though personal use may be allowed? I don’t know but I do know that it’s relatively easy and cheap to find other harder drugs, and so, they are commonly used at parties. The 80s were a complicated time in Spain because the heroine consumption was over the roof. It killed many many people in that generation.
- Houses: in cities, it’s more frequent for people to live in a flat. Depending on the time when this flat was built, the quality of the materials will be better, the flat will be bigger or smaller. Houses are something you see mainly in villages and they tend to be next to each other, no garden (maybe a patio). In the last 20-30 years, people started to show an interest in something that looks like “suburbs” from the movies (even though “suburbio” in Spanish actually means the full opposite of “suburbs”) but it doesn’t fit the weather nor the way we live and I personally hate them. And wooden houses are out of this world, everything here is made of stone or brick. Traditional houses here are made of stone with thick walls (up to one meter of thickness). I attach pictures of houses in the North of Spain. Southern houses are full white, no wooden structures to be seen from the outside.
A village in what looks like the North of Spain. There is a lot of vegetation, you can see some white and brown houses in a grass field. There is a tower at the back. We see a town square with houses made of stone, red roof and wooden balconies. Most of the walls are painted white, some aren’t and you can see the stone itself.
Tumblr media
- Physical contact: in the movies, people rarely hug. It seems to me that maybe in the 80s-90s people hugged, touched more on screen. At some point in the 2000s it stopped and now you have people crying their eyes out and their best friend just standing there. We stand closer to each other and touch each other to show care, interest and affection very often. Some people in Spain are not very tactile (and thus, really like Northern Europe) but generally speaking, if someone cries, you hug them (unless you know they don’t want it, in which case you stay nearby). Heterosexual men also hug and also hold each other by the shoulder, for instance. I know this is a shock for some foreigners (don’t know if in the US it would be). From the times I’ve met US people, they’re not only surprised but sometimes actually scared that people touch them. Not even Asians react the way US people do to physical contact in Spain. BTW, when I say “touch”, I mean “the arm, shoulder” mainly. Other places require closer levels of friendship. However, you may kiss your partner/lover anywhere in the street, it’s ok, usually goes unnoticed by people. Even my parents grab each others asses occasionally in the street.
This picture is from La Torre de Suso, where 4 friends gather after 10 years of being apart because an old friend died. It also touches on drug addiction and the 80s. It shows 4 men in their 40s wearing a jacket and a tie, smartly dress, smiling and about to hug each other in the middle of the street of what looks like a small town.
Tumblr media
- Welcoming someone to the neighbourhood: apparently, people bring cakes to the new comers. We don’t, you’ll eventually meet your neighbours. Or not. But you have to say hello to the people you see on the stairs of your flat, in the street you live. In small towns/villages, you have to greet everyone you know, at least say “hi”, ideally actually stop for small talk (I’m terrible at this but getting better now that I live in a small town).
- Church: it seems to be a big part of people’s lives. Very often, people are going to church, all ceremonies seem to be religious (marriage, death...) and they tend to be Christian (sometimes Jewish but they seem to be less involved in their religious life?, or maybe the movie is done by non-religious people?). In Spain, everything is Catholic and at the same time, it isn’t. Many traditions are Catholic and people enjoy them but they aren’t Catholic themselves. There are churchgoers, of course. There are Catholic cults with massive power in politics and society (Opus Dei, mainly). But we had a fascist Catholic dictatorship and many people got very tired of it. To give you an idea of how things usually go: everyone in my village eats the same meal (fish and garbanzo beans for lunch, potato omelette for diner) on Good Friday (even my family, where nobody has ever been religious willingly). Only old people and some very Catholic families go to church. Most holidays are related to Catholic Saints (this gives us lots of long weekends and days off during the year) and they are often celebrated with a town fair that lasts several days.
In theory, Spain has no religion. In reality, it is Catholicism. In schools/high schools there is a subject called “Religion” and almost always it’s about Catholicism (teachers of this subject, even in public schools, are related to the Church somehow). It is not mandatory but often there is no alternative if you don’t want to take it (I was the only child who didn’t attend and had my own homework during that time that my mother chose for me: Ethics).
The image is from El Rocío, an important religious fair that takes place in the South of Spain. Many local fairs look similar to this. Lots of people are gathered in a small temporary white hut, decorated with garlands (white and red) and the flag of Andalusia that is green and white. There is a bar with small glasses of white wine and some plates with food on them.
Tumblr media
This said, it’s very frequent to get married at the Town Hall with a couple of witness and it’s also very frequent for burials to happen in the Tanatorio, where people can say goodbye to their loved one but it’s not in church.
And even many church goers are not devoted Christians, are open minded about LGBT issues or other, for instance.
- Prison: We don’t have death penalty but people can spend their life in prison if their crimes are massive and they add years and years to their sentence. Prisons here are public and as far as I’ve seen in Spanish movies, there are no uniforms, you wear your everyday clothes. You will only go to prison if you committed a serious crime or if you have several small crimes. Often, the first time it’s a reduced sentence that can be made into paying a fine. The second time you will go to prison. This happens even for domestic violence/rape which usually causes great controversy in society. You can leave earlier if you behave well (very earlier actually) and sometimes you can leave the weekend and the come back to prison, or leave for x hours and come back to sleep. It depends on the sentence and behaviour, etc. I’d say terrorism is the hardest charge and right now, they are using terrorism as an excuse to sentence activists (there quite a lot of political prisoners in Spain).
I mention crimes because you have to have LOTS of other offences to go to prison. They usually are just fined.
The picture is from the movie Cell 211 which is an excellent movie. Do watch it. It shows the main character, a bold man with a goatie wearing a sweater whose sleeves have been cut off. He looks serious. On the background, many men wearing everyday sports clothes cheer and look in the same direction as him.
Tumblr media
- Laws: I don’t know Spanish law very well (it bothers me to say that I may know better what to do with the police in the US than in Spain) but it seems to me, from the movies, that many things are made into a massive deal in the US. Like jaywalking is apparently an offence of some kind? Here you can just cross the street wherever. People respect the crossing path for safety but it’s not a crime to not do it. People also don’t sue companies or other people as often and it’s usually not that big of a deal maybe? In any case, it’s a completely different legal system.
. The 50s: The 50s in the US are fancy and colourful. Society seems to have been thriving, everything was getting better. In Spain, the hunger years were starting to be over but many people were poor. We were in the worst of the Franco dictatorship, it was quite a rural society that had been destroyed by a civil war (the effects of which are still being felt). Rich people were fascist, poor people could be anything (many were actually communists, republican or other leftist). This is not a happy time in Spain. Many people had left to be refugees in other countries, many were leaving illegally to work in Germany or France. The music we listened to at the time was definitely not Elvis Presley (look for Lola Flores or Miguel de Molina, even though he ended up fleeing the country because he was openly gay and republican and they almost killed him once).
This image is from the movie Los Santos Inocentes, based on a book of the same title. A classic of Spanish modern literature and cinema. This is the way most people looked in the 50s in Spain. Even now old people look like this in villages.
It is like a family picture in front of a white house. Everyone is wearing black, dark blue, dark green or grey. From left to right, there is a boy sitting on a bench that is situated next to the door. Next, it’s a young girl wearing a long grey skirt and a dark green jacket. By the door, the mother holds a very thin boy who seems to be either deeply sick or dead. She wears mostly black and gray. The boy has the brightest green in the scene. Next to her, there is a man wearing a gray jacket and a bonet and finally, there is an older man that seems to be smiling (the only one smiling, everyone else has a serious and gloomy face).
Tumblr media
And that’s what I can think of right now.

Ikemen Revolution Part 6 - Sirius Oswald Route
Tumblr media
You’ve gotta admire how well Sirius can multitask lmao, he can continue a conversation with the heroine in the carriage whilst assessing the situation outside and give orders to the soldiers on their formation etc against the Red Army lol. Gotta appreciate how much he wanted to protect her from fear by making small talk to distract her, and then afterwards, he noticed that she was still pretty scared seeing how battered the carriage was in the aftermath of the attack, so he patted her head to comfort her and welcome her to their big family with good food hahaha. I’ve always liked Sirius so I’m super excited about this route btw and seeing his actions, I’m already in love😍
I always love seeing how considerate and meticulous Seth is, decorating her room, making her feel at home, giving her a tour etc, he’s such a sweet guy. Hahahaha, I love how she’s so scared of Sirius that when she saw him pick up a knife in the kitchen or whatever, she asked him to spare her life LOL. Relax, heroine! He’s been protecting you this whole time, why would he kill you now lollll. I can understand fear against the Red Army but c'mon, Sirius doesn’t look that scary! He’s obviously cooking something for you since you haven’t eaten for a whole day! I’ll cut her some slack though, she just arrived into an unknown world with unknown people at war and there are people that seem like they want to kill her, so it’s natural to be so scared. Omgg he wiped her mouth with a napkin, he’s so subtly forward, he probably doesn’t mean anything by it since he’s probably just accustomed to taking care of people but kyaaa~~
He even baked her croissants for breakfast?!? And got her tea and fruit?! Can he be any more considerate and perfect?! Lmao, the thought of Sirius holding a watering can watering flowers whilst watching over the training of his soldiers is just so hilarious to me😂😂 I was wondering why he got her to wake up so early to watch them train, it was actually to show her how strong, hardworking and capable these guys are and how dedicated they are to their training, and how they’ll definitely protect her, so that was nice of Sirius to do, I mean showing is better than telling! LOL that a raccoon was trying to flying tackle the heroine, and it only served to create a beautiful romantic moment where Sirius hugged her to protect her, but I like it😍😍 LOL, Sirius is in charge of everything, from personnel to inventory management on stuff like cooking supplies. It was legit so hilarious when Seth and Luka were like it’s the end of the world that they ran out of olive oil and grapeseed oil to mix with the pasta, and then Sirius comes by telling them he ordered some and even picked some fresh oregano since he thought it’d go well with the pasta hahahaha. Why is Sirius so perfect?😂😂
HAHAHA, I love Sirius, he’s such a tease and I love it when they ruffle the heroine’s hair, it’s so cuteee~ Funniest thing was when he gave her jobs to do, and they were all simple odd jobs like peeling a bag of potatoes and tending to weeds, best thing was that every time he gave her a job, he also gave her a snack LOL, and they’re such yummy snacks like cream puffs etc!! He’s gonna get her fat at this rate🤣🤣 I wonder if the girl at the flower shop is someone he previously dated!😮 So funny when it was actually radish seeds that she gifted him when the heroine thought they would be flower seeds, and now he’s teasing her for being a glutton and that he’ll make her radish salad when they’re ready🤣
Lmao when the heroine underestimated how hard it would be to take care of Chutney (Sirius’ pet raccoon), I’m surprised she didn’t realise considering it nearly tackled her before lol. The destruction that the raccoon does is magnificent though, enough that Ray and Fenrir have to halt their meeting to keep their pets safe hahaha. Lmao at the heroine and Chutney bonding so well (after she got through to it since they were both picked up and cared for by Sirius lmao) that they’re even scrubbing curtains together hahaha. Lmao at the guys having to force Sirius to have a day off by using the heroine to walk around with him, it was so sweet when he told her that today was the first time in his life that he could truly relax, since he was spending time with her. He’s such a workaholic!
Well, that was the most pointless meeting between the two armies, it was legit just, no we don’t surrender, okay we’ll go to war tomorrow, see ya. Like, was that supposed to be a constructive meeting?! Seriously. The five minutes Lancelot gave Sirius to talk to him was more productive, since Sirius believes that there’s more to the reason why Lancelot’s so adamant on this war and since he wants peace above everything, he wants to know what it is to stop and help Lancelot. No idea why Harr appeared out of nowhere to kill Lancelot though… Ooh, so the Black Army had kept asking Sirius to become the king until Ray came along. I’m assuming Sirius only really joined because he wanted to save Lancelot or something?
I can understand Sirius’ sentiments for not wanting to use the heroine’s power to repel magic though, he’s right. In the end, this is war and if the heroine participates in it, even if it’s just repelling magic, she is inadvertently pushing the Red Army back and giving an advantage to the Black Army soldiers to possibly kill the Red Army soldiers, so she could be basically contributing to their deaths. I’m glad Sirius thought about that and so he didn’t want her to carry such burdens and dirty her clean hands for them when she doesn’t need to and shouldn’t. He’s so thoughtful, it kills me☺️☺️ I love Sirius, I seriously do, omg. When the heroine spotted him with the watering can during their time at war, and he talked about how the Black Army was fighting to protect their everyday lives, so if they neglect to take care of their home and to love it as sacrifice for winning the battle, then they’ve got their priorities backwards, and when I read that, I thought he was so right, so so right! It’s exactly because it’s wartime that it’s even more important to take care of their everyday since it’s at risk of being toppled!
I guess Sirius is that kinda guy huh? Someone who likes things and takes everything in moderation, so that he can stay calm and collected to fulfill his duties. He’s not emotionless but in a sense, you could say he’s become numb to a lot of things because his position doesn’t allow him to be too emotional or the morale of the army will dwindle. Which is why he’s a serious guy but also likes to joke every now and then, he tries to balance everything, including himself because he needs to be in control. Guess he won’t be able to control his feelings for the heroine though���� Considering how the heroine is always so straightforward, trying her best to help and wearing her emotions on her sleeve, I guess he’s attracted to how sincere she is in everything she does. But dang that kiss on the forehead was cuteeee.
Loved how well Sirius’ plan went! Omgg drunk Sirius pulling the heroine to the sofa with him saying he doesn’t want to be alone is the cutest thing ever!!!!😍😍 So cute when Sirius blushed at the heroine knowing that he likes things lively rather than being alone, and it was just so peaceful to see them enjoy a cup of coffee together watching over the others~~ But lmaoo at Seth pointing at them to the others proving that there’s something going on between them🤣 LOLL at Luka asking Seth , what does he mean by Sirius stealing the heroine’s heart, “aren’t her ribs in the way?” hahahaha, you’re so cute Luka lmaoo. LOL at the guys confronting her to ask if she really does like him and she practically immediately admits it🤣 Lolll at Sirius hearing everything and seeing them discuss happily how she’s going to win his heart hahaha, that is definitely a hard conversation to walk into😂
Sirius playing with the heroine’s hair is like the cutest moment ever. I didn’t think Harr was actually school friends with both Sirius and Lancelot though, and that Harr’s recruitment by the Tower and subsequent banishment into becoming a wanted man actually motivated Lancelot to want to mend the Red and Black barrier even more. OHHH, so the woman who sold the heroine those radish seeds was actually Sirius’ sister! That’s his family business! No wonder why he seems to put so much care into flowers and just the garden in general, he knows about them really well since his family business is a flower shop! Tbh it’s kinda crazy to think that someone as capable as Sirius really just wanted to take care of flowers for the rest of his life, I guess it’s something nice and calming, so great for the Sirius that doesn’t like to fight. It’s so cute how he still remembers that Lancelot once upon a time said that when he becomes the King of Hearts and rids of the conflict between the two armies, he would fly here and buy flowers from Sirius. It sounds like such a silly but sweet dream haha.
It must have been very hurtful for Harr during that meeting 7 years ago. He trusted Lancelot and Sirius and called them out, but instead of being listened to, Lancelot attacked him and everyone came out injured physically and emotionally from that meeting. Things had changed for them and they could no longer be the naive and simple kids they once were, especially Sirius…since he essentially gave up on his dream to take care of the flower shop in order to try and save Lancelot and Harr from whatever that is restricting them… Damn right heroine, you tell him!! Sirius, you’re definitely not an old man! You’re mature, caring and a great gentleman! Omgg, when he wrapped his arm around her and let her cuddle against him to “return the favour” of her listening to him etc since she needed some comforting, I was like this is so sweeeet!
It was so good to see Lancelot finally tell Sirius everything and tell him that he still thinks Sirius looks best in an apron and a watering can rather than a soldier uniform. You can really see how much he really cherishes Sirius. It was so tough to keep all this to himself. I was so touched when Sirius said he had found a third wish he wanted to come true no matter what (first two was save Lancelot and bring Harr back into the light) and it was for the heroine to be happy and safe and that Cradle isn’t that place anymore. But omggg, even more touched when he bought her the right sized shoes this time, I never thought he’d actually remember so well about how he got it wrong the first time, so he wants the last gift he gives her to be shoes in the right size. It’s just so…perfect. The kisses were also👌👌
Kinda wanted to see Sirius, Harr and Lancelot combine their strengths to defeat Amon but it’s okay I guess, since we got to see Sirius come all the way to the Land of Reason to pick the heroine up back to Cradle, shows how much he really wants her to really stay with him for the rest of his life😊 So cute when all the Black Army guys were so happy about her return though hahaha, the thought of Ray rubbing her head, Fenrir pinching her cheeks, Luka gripping her hand and Seth hugging her, dangg that harem sounds nice🤣 It’s also really cute how all their actions show their personalities so well☺️ Kinda disappointed in the romantic ending since it just described their kisses and that’s all, but it was cute that Lancelot could get Sirius riled up with a letter and confess his love properly to the heroine lol. Anyway, all good, the CG was super pretty so that made up for it haha.
Overall, I loved Sirius. He didn’t disappoint at all. He was mature, gentlemanly, kind and considerate, he was definitely the whole package haha. Such a great guy that takes care of everyone but is also very passionate and will give everything for his friends. Nothing to complain about in this route and I have to say, I like it just as much as Fenrir’s, they’re my top two for sure!

Hey, so with that bandit character meme thing I’d like to throw my two pence in if that’s okay ? I believe that bandit would still smoke weed (probably prescription so it can be controlled) and deep down he cares for all his team. After his family disowned him for the prank gone wrong with Cedrick (which was 100% an accident) he’s never really felt like a close bond with other people but then comes rainbow and he would give his life for these people (they all live in barracks at Hereford) 1/2
Tumblr media
It’s more than okay! I love hearing about other people’s headcanons, it’s always interesting, and you clearly have put a lot of thought on this one. Tbh you had me on board completely with the idea of team Rainbow as a family, I adore that! And then wholesome Bandit just sealed the deal ❤❤And it may be my own personal bias showing up since in my country it’s pretty normalized, but I don’t consider weed to be hard stuff when it comes to drugs. When I said I that I was thinking of cocaine, heroine, etc.

Fuck it tho. I have to stop gaming or learn self control. Maybe I’ll take up martial arts????? I heard it teaches self control. I mean I don’t need anything crazy like rehab it’s not like I’m addicted to heroin it’s video games crying out loud. Pretty much the same level as weed imo. Right??? No one’s really addicted to weed like a cigarette smoker is addicted to nicotine. So I wanna separate myself from all that because even tho I do have an addiction I don’t think it’s that serious to the point it endangers my life. That would be alcohol, cigarettes, heroin, etc.
But martial arts would probably be good as hell for me to learn self control. And also confidence. Man my confidence is damn near invisible and it might be bc video games have taken away opportunities to socialize and connect which causes me to feel isolated and crave even more video games. It’s taking away my ability to live life. I’m also using it to run away from my problems. It’s all bad bruh. But thankfully it’s only video games and I know it can be overcome. Just need to change my habits and learn self control or get rid of it altogether (but where’s the mental strength in that?).
I can’t even share other things because it involves others and I can’t put them out there like that without checking to see if they’re cool with it. But yeah.
Video game addiction is not on the DSM scale but it could be a sign of impulse control disorder ain’t that some shit lmaoo. Everything’s a disorder man. Always someone trying to make money off your “disorder”. I personally wouldn’t go as far to call whatever I have, an addiction or not, a disorder. But it is a problem nonetheless. And could even be an issue with self discipline, not being able to say no to myself. These stem from a lack of training. You don’t call skinny people “bony rony disorder” you just tell them they need to lift some weights or get a personal trainer. And they should probably get a personal trainer because most people don’t know how to workout for shit but thats besides the point. I need a personal trainer tbh.
I think my next move is going to be to talk with my uncle and ask if he knows anyone who can help me or give some advice. I can’t keep this problem to myself and tough it out like some do because of “mah masculinity grrrr”. So yeah I think ima do that.
Maybe I’ll keep you guys posted.
Tldr: I’m dealing with my issues so wish me luck pls.

Hey sweets! Here I come with yet another one of my trash babies. I really needed to bring in some angst here, and a hoe-y character so have one of my top 3 bitches. And don’t let her fool you with her baby face.
Like this or hmu if you want angst to plot!! 
( Scarlett Leithold |  21 | cisfemale ) I swear I saw Madison Harrinston di Stefano around campus yesterday. I hear SHE is very IMPULSIVE, COQUETTE and CONFIDENT, which explains why when you think of them, you’d think of SHOPPING BAGS and CHAMPAGNE ROSE. They’re in their sophomore year and studying CRIMINOLOGY. ( Mar | 25| gmt -3 | she her )
Sorry if this got long, Madison is the daughter of my otp and one of my most developed characters even though the “lack” of gifs always makes it hard for me to play her and it’s why I wasn’t sure if I should try with another fc or not but here we are.
BACKGROUND
Maddie is the typical girl who will wear knee long dresses or skirts through the day just to impress her grandma and get money from her (actually also does it with her dad as well and with whoever she needs something from just as teachers. Playing innocent is her favorite game tbh). But at night? She is a completely different person, wear really short shorts and skirts and bralettes are basically what 75% of her wardrobe is full of.
Daddy’s girl who lost her way. From being back at home by midnight she turned into the girl who vanished from home for days without anyone knowing where she was (except her younger brother who knew she was at some electronic party in Ibiza)
Isn’t very attached to anyone except her parents, her grandfather from her mother’s side and her 4 siblings.
Has been a party girl ever since her sweet sixteen party but she wasn’t one to need alcohol or drugs to have fun, that until she started going out with Jean.
To get into Jean’s story you may like to know a few things first (Jean is non playable though bc its yet another of my otp’s sons and my friend plays him): she was the sweet girl who played with toys but one day she got bored and every guy became her toy. Maddie knows she is pretty and doesn’t mind using her beauty to get stuff from others, mainly guys but also from girls since she is bi curious (more curious than bi tbh). Jean was one more of her toys.
But who was Jean? Her bff’s twin brother, they met when they were kids and he ALWAYS had a crush on her but he wasn’t hot enough for Maddie to notice him. That until puberty hit him right. They never dated and maddie always made sure he knew it was just sex, but seeing her with other guys, feeling like she was using him (and tbh Maddie was indeed just using him when she felt lonely or bored or just needed a ride home), it made Jean go mad out of his mind. He was in lvoe with her, and she didn’t give two fcks about it, all she wanted from him was to be her slave. Her lap dog. Jean decided to make Maddie pay, became her torment. Madison was his drug, his addiction, he needed her and Jean wanted her to feel the same he did so he got her into drugs, the hard ones. It wasn’t a hard work with a girl who acted like a godess but really felt worthless, he became her dealer and in a weird way she needed him even if it was just for the drugs. And things got out of hands, Maddie went from having drugs just on parties to needing them on the daily, from weed and cocaine to heroin.
Maybe too late but her parents noticed and sent her to rehab where Madison had to deal with the abstinence and all it made her feel until she was finally clean. A process that took her a whole year out of her life.
She ended her studies in a boarding school in Britain and took a year off after her graduation to spend some time with her family.
Her parents left her with no other option but to join lockwood.
One of the privileges of being hideously rich is that she doesn’t need to live in college, she haves her own apartment close to it.
FAMILY BACKGROUND
She is the third of six siblings
Her eldest sister, Victoria, died with just a few weeks of live. It was a sudden death in her sleep. Their parents (teen parents at 17 years old) were devastated and Madison’s mom blamed herself for what happened so they took half a year away one from the other, crying cause they really needed one another.
The half year they spent away one from the other is the longest time they have been separate ever since they met in high school (the same school were Madison studied) and became best friends. 
Her father’s family is one of the traditional british families that are related to the crown family and are hideously rich to the point where at least five generations could live a luxury life without working even a day. Then again her dad works for the family business and she secretly admires him for that.
Her mother’s side of the family are italian descendants who settled in Argentina where Madison’s mother was born. Her mother’s story is SO sad and full of triggers I’m not going to get into that but what you need to know is Maddie’s grandmother died at a young age of cancer. And also that her grandfather is a important drugs dealer in Argentina.
Maddie was actually born in Argentina even though they were raised in London. But she spent most of her summers in Argentina and that’s the reason why her accent can sound quite weird and when she is mad she curses in spanish.
PERSONALITY
When she wants something no one can stop her.
Is a coquete and isn’t ashamed of it --- will use everyone to get what she wants
Used to be daddy’s girl, now haves daddy issues.
Seems to be really confident although she feels worthless in the inside.
Owns everything pink
Haves a huge collection of designer bags and shoes. Her closet is probably bigger than everyone elses house’s.
Weak for shopping and luxury. would be lost without her credit card bc girl hates carrying money around.
Never payed for a drink in her entire life, always gets them for free.
Is used to being the center of the attention.
Hates lollipops but always haves one just to atract the attention.
Isn’t a whore but acts like one.
Looks like an angel but may be the devil herself
Is cold like winter and loves breaking hearts as a hobbie
Knows most guys jst want her body and uses them too.
Can make you feel like if you were special, the one, but it will be temporal.
may promise you heaven and end giving you hell
She is a well known model (better known for her scandals than her actual talent though) and is taking a few months off after someone discovered her past with drugs.

you feel like this man understands you better than anyone else, but it seems what he understands is how dangerous he is to you. there's nothing to only understanding someone's damage. and now you wonder about damaging yourself, maybe so you'll understand him more; don't. if you know you're too kind to fully get away from him then talk about it to someone, so that there'll be someone to stop you. it's serious, you'll end up killing yourself. don't kill yourself over a man who mostly knows (1/2)
“how to make you self-destruct. there are people who can help him, and you shouldn't be one of them, because you would hurt yourself for him. don't try to "get" him. in the end he will be a small dent in your life, you can't imagine that because the light is too bright now, but please don't lose yourself for a man that's already lost. (2/2)”No I know. I have a therapist. The truth is he sent me an email. Just two small emails a week ago Saturday that said sorry about what he called me to Natalie (a friend, I have no idea what he’s talking about) and that he’d make it up to me if he could. I wasn’t going to answer but then later that night I responded I need time, leave me alone. And then it was itching my mind, and then Wednesday my friends said some stupid shit. They didn’t mean to, but they were tactless in public about it. It’s hard to explain it just started escalating while I sat there dumbfounded that they would just causally start talking about something that was literally like, traumatic to me? And it scratch the itch and my the itch bigger and this weekend like an I D I O T I send him an email. A long rambling email where I told him if he reaches out, it’s harder for me to want to stay away, and I want to stay away because it’s the right thing because he’s dangerous to me and also because that’s what he wants me to do, but at the same time I don’t want him to stay away because it doesn’t feel right. It was basically a plea to leave me alone for my own sake, because it wouldn’t take much for him to get me alone tbh. And that was Sunday morning. And I pressed send, and I was like “woo, I feel better. It was dumb but he’s never going to respond and now the words are out.” But that’s not what happened. I started obsessively checking my emails AGAIN after I got over that. It’s literally the only way he can contact me now and my therapist was like “block his email” and I was like “yeah yeah” and I haven’t. And it makes me sick to my stomach how much I want him to reach out again, when I know it’s never what I’m going to expect. So that rambling post was me taking out frustrations. I’m not going to go find some meth. But I know he was right. He’s a danger to me because maybe I would try it with him. I was so convinced I would never, and all he had to say was “yeah you would” and it like pulled some wool from my eyes. That I sought out this dangerous man in the first place, he knows something true about me that my well meaning friends don’t. I remember the day that conversation happened that I went and told a friend and started saying how he told me he thought I would try meth and she cut me off and said “oh my god but you never would” like he was a jerk for saying it, and I hadn’t even said that he said it like a warning, and I wanted to tell her how it actually sounded true. When I told my therapist, he nodded and was like “well, I’ve seen many many many people try drugs because they’re around someone who does them. He’s probably seen people try it after saying they wouldn’t” and it was like a relief. I didn’t go through a normal break up with a normal person, and it’s really altered something in me and most of the people in my life aren’t really equipped to help me. I’ve had a few people reach out to me who have experienced something similar, losing someone to meth or heroine, having to deal with a sudden break up with them or even a slow painful one. They understand the complex feelings, the weird pain it causes. You just wish this person would just stop, and they can’t and you know they can’t but you ache for them even when they have hurt you. He lied and belittled me. He also stayed away more than you would expect, or that my therapist led me to believe. I think he wants the right thing for me more than the wrong thing. And it’s hard to explain to someone who hasn’t seen a person descent into meth, but it’s freaky. They talk in coherent sentences that don’t make sense. When they’re high they’re manic and fucked and mean and loving it, when they’re coming down they’re bizarre and disjointed and confused and nervous, when they’re craving they’re harsh and raw and in pain and desperate. It’s like talking to a waterfall, it’s like talking to someone who says all their words backwards. It’s not fun. How do you explain to someone who’s never seen it and wants you to stay away because they love you and they know he’s bad for you? How do you say “he’s turning himself into something inhuman, someone has to help him” and there response is somewhere between “let him he’s garbage” and “this is just who he is” with a mix of “you’re just frustrated you can’t help him.” Yeah no shit. I’m not letting him destroy his life, I’m living with the knowledge that he already is. It fucking HURTS. Sometimes I just want to talk about it. I want to talk about how it hurts as a human being, not as former lover. But it’s ok, I have coping mechanisms now. I have a therapist. I’m keeping the scary shit away from the people who aren’t equipped to help me and saving it for my therapist who can. I write all this, as embarrassing as it is, to admit between funny post about pussy and weed, that I’m still deeply hurting for a meth addict man who is just a laundry list of “how could you date this person if you’re into radical feminism,” so that I can maybe help even one person. I don’t know what, to validate their feelings, or articulate them, or give them a warning. Don’t do it. Don’t date him or her. Meth is as bad as they say, and it’s not in small ways. It’s in big over your head ways. You can’t know unless you see it, and seeing it is really, really traumatic. It’s really scary, it really flips your world on the side. You can learn about yourself in other ways. Tumblr is the easiest thing in my life. It’s easy to open tumblr and write funny posts. It’s easy, it requires no effort or care. I don’t care about tumblr. So when it’s like a switch and I use it to just ramble feelings out, I don’t care. I don’t care even its embarrassing: guys I’m healing from a traumatic break up with a meth addict. It fucked me up a little. Thanks for sticking around when I get weird about it.Your ask was important and it shows understanding and care, and I appreciate it. I’m going to be fine. I’m already ok in so many ways. It’s just that it isn’t a straight line, so when it bubbles up again I’m frustrated. You’re right that he’s right that I’m right about what he’s right about. He’s dangerous, he knows he’s dangerous. Honestly, if I ever tried meth and he found out I’m sure he would be furious. Can you believe that? Like a father would. That’s how I feel. I’m furious he’s killing himself slowly. But he was that person long before me. That’s why he knows and that’s why he’s gone. That’s why there are one thousand walls between us now. It’s better this way.
