The Journey to the Unknown
Two days later, they stood at the edge of an abandoned airstrip, the wind cutting through the silence like a whispered warning. The tarmac stretched endlessly into the night, cracked and worn from years of disuse. Above them, the sky was vast and empty, no blinking aircraft lights, no signs of civilization. JustĀ themĀ and the unknown. Mia shifted on her feet, arms crossed. āThis place looks likeā¦
#dimly lit#hidden purpose#late twenties#minimalist design#mysterious travelers#observant gaze#other passengers#private jet#quiet anticipation#Rubikās Cube#Sam and Mia#seated together#silent journey#sleek interior#tense atmosphere#tinted windows#two women#uneasy expression#unknown destination

Alex Turner + before a show
#iāve been meaning to make this compilation for ages because āthereās something so particular about his energy before a show that i love#so focused and quiet and yet thrumming with unarticulated energy#you can *feel* the adrenaline and the nervousness#the anticipation#the perfectionism#idk thereās just something really intimate about photos like this to me#they feel like they capture something so real about him and the moments before he steps out onstage and performs for us all#alex turner#arctic monkeys#the last shadow puppets#tlsp#lulu posts

No melatonin, no meditation
Can ease my anticipation
No drink I'm making's helping the waiting, no oh
It's you, girl
I'm cool like an icicle till I see you girl
#love notes#camila#camila cabello#quiet#she has good lyrics ok!!! yearning!!!!#//#you've got me hotter than hot#feel like i'm melting from the inside out#the tension and anticipation is building#i think it's time we see what we're about

i love you teens you guys are so incredible today i pitched to a group of teens ON their SUMMER BREAK that i could hook up my laptop to a projector and they could prepare a powerpoint pres about whatever topic they'd want and they went CRAZY for it. children are begging me to give them homework and make them speak before a crowd
#of course this being a queer community center is important context lol#still i did not anticipate THAT much enthusiasm#one kid just gasped āthe legend of zeldaā and then fell very quiet for a long time.#i love my job guys

Hi! Gail here. Iām still around, just to let you know.
#i read some things and fade kinda made it sound like i was dead#i am fine!#hmm. fine is not the right word#tired but trying!#donāt expect me to make a habit out of highlighting that itās me talking when iām speaking on this main blog#but fade made the side blog and ideally this means that we will not keep doing this on main#i wonāt link the blog#i expect that fade *might*#i promise that we get along#iām just used to double-checking things and making sure that weāre not making dangerous decisions#and she is reasonably feeling pent-up by a past decision that we made about not directly talking about the plurality on main#which combines very badly with with the quiet anticipation of our rights getting stripped away honestly#she feels safer talking about it here#i feel safer in a very different space#weāll deal#...wh. why was she not using the right kind of apostrophe. Fade Why Do You Write Tags With The Gross Apostrophe.#thatās what my twink ass woke up to#cries

slowly getting back into my regular routine of being a nuisance on dash. you ain't rid of me yet
#rambles.#my mom stayed longer than i anticipated but it was really nice actually#it was like an extended sleepover except i had an organ removed and she had to help me up sometimes like a turtle stuck on its back#but she went home earlier so my quiet time is once again dedicated to video games and blorbos

"Oh...!"
Susannah supposed that made the most sense...it was the easiest, most believable fib he could give to his parents, especially considering how enamored they were with the idea of their boy finally settling down. She was sure they'd have all sorts of questions about her "family" and the time he spent with them when he returned, but she had faith he'd be able to come up with a good cover story for the both of them.
"I...I do wish you were meeting my family," she found herself saying aloud before she could stop herself, as she continued to gaze out the window: She didn't have much of it, granted, but she still wished he could've met them nonetheless, particularly her father's side of the family.
"I...I wish you could've met my father," she lamented quietly, as the familiar New Orleans surroundings began to fade away as the sun continued its ascent into the sky. "He...he would've loved you, I think...he'd have admired your...compassion, your good heart, your grace...I think you two would've gotten along very well.
I'm sure my ma would've liked you too...I-I don't remember her much, but...I imagine she woulda liked you a lot. She probably woulda welcomed you into the family with open arms."
#((it'd be perfect to her! i think in some ways it'd be better than any flashy fairy tale-style proposal))#((simply because it'd be quiet and peaceful and romantic-simple is good in her book!))#((and oh man doreen is going to be absolutely BOUNCING off the walls! even though she expected it))#((she undoubtedly anticipated it; especially once susannah told her they were going on vacation))#((-hence doreen loading her up with plenty of dresses for said vacation-))#((but once she hears she's still gonna be over the moon! she's absolutely gonna wanna celebrate!))#((maybe in lieu of a big get-together at gracey manor; they could have a small engagement party at susannah's house))#((just susannah; philippe; doreen; and edward once the former gets back! sort of a last hurrah before california!))#((what do you think?))#outofhatboxes#beatingheart-bride#V:Genderbent

#a delightfully quiet day at work#I got caught up on my work stuff last week in anticipation of not being available today#and my boss is out of office all day#I forgot to pack my crochet but I do have three (3) books in my bag for some reason#and I'm avoiding my second draft because it's annoying me#so hopefully I will keep the boredom at bay!

i do love the holmes-watson dynamic in elementary but it is admittedly disappointing thereās not more weird fucked up moriarty-holmes fics out there.
#N posts stuff#not to out myself here but the kind of gentle condescending superiority moriarty speaks to sherlock with is. well. šššš#and there Are a lot of moriarty-watson fics but. like. watson doesnāt have the same Vulnerability in the dynamic#that sherlock does.#ĀÆ\_(ć)_/ĀÆ the canon dynamic between watson and moriarty and her being Surprised that joan is more an Equal to her than sheād anticipated#which is like. a good dynamic but Not the kind of fucked-up messy iām talking about wanting to see. sorry lol#sherlock being not only willing but borderline desperate to pin himself down with her in the time before the moriarty revelation is. šš¼#and the very quiet āiām not sure i am one of themā. sorry but im into it#and no one else really seems to be but. bummer! bc idk how well iād Write it#but i Really want to read it lol

god i really wish i could just. control my voice. could control my volume and how much i speak.
#vent in tags#cant take the bus home anymore. last time the driver didnt hear me when i pointed out my stop#i was in the front seat. i was being as loud as i could. he couldnt even hear that i was talking.#i think one of my coworkers might think i dont like her. she says hi every time we pass each other#all i can do is a little nod. i can hardly ever say hi on command#cant always speak on command in general.#i need to be prepared. to be anticipating a conversation#and even then im too quiet#or if im w friends and family im too loud. i talk too much. too fast#i just. i wish it was in my control#it is for everyone else in the world. why not me.#actually autistic#ok to rb#rambling

Moving out and living alone is so freeing actually for a lot of reasons but mainly I'm not in a state of constant hyper awareness and anticipation for the next time I have to hear my trigger noises in my own living space. Like ok yeah Im always going to have to deal with them, that's what I have my noise cancelling headphones for. but having the amount of times they occur cut out by 87% in my space that's supposed to be where I get to relax was ACTUALLY life changing. Like. I actually get to relax and not be waiting for the next auditory assault.
#Aaaaand I hate going to visit my parents bc I have to go back to that state of constant anticipation#I think I also got lucky bc my neighbors are very sweet and very quiet and one of them also has noise sensitivity issues like me so#Misophonia

bonus thing i cherish in this shot is that it's the one time it's immediately noticeable that her hair length is uneven....let's go Cutting One's Own Hair (With Or Without A Mirror) look havers irl (b/c of cutting one's own hair with or without a mirror, maybe) & even when it's recreated on purpose like so
#haven't yet rewatched fury road as i've been anticipating doing for weeks now. we're on the verge of it though i can sense it#thank god ms charlize (juking diacritics) decided on Furiosa Will Have Short Hair#the No Diegetic Makeup. the constant (smudged with dirt or grease or blood perhaps) looks#only additional thing that we're demanding from anything. armpit hair please. for furiosa at least#meanwhile siiigh i guess like three days (? i will go through the number of Nights in my head. one. two.) closer to two days#isn't long enough to grow that much leg hair siiigh fine. more difficult to match up leg hair shots chronology too but if only....#reminds me how a while ago i was like half watching smthing & after a fair number of scenes was like oh hang on that's charlize furiosa....#b/c i basically know her From This. i'd seen smthing else she was in years before w/o remembering much details of Anything#(also had technically seen tom hardy in smthing more recently at the time Also w/o recognizing as much. also thanks at least in part to#not especially enjoying the movie) & i'm not great with faces; that most roles are gonna have Longer Hair / Makeup happening#and a lack of constant dirt grease blood etc even like okay this would be quite difficult#so i Didn't recognize the actor for a hot minute until the reason i Did was just this instance of [subtle quiet shift Acting Moment]#where she got this particular Silent Restrained Intensity going and i was like oh hang on. Could Be Her lmao. it was#anyways even capturing this screencap it was like Aughhh that she Walks. Stops. Walks. the Soundtrack doing what it's doing here....#and if there's Anything in this film to illustrate [max: main character] [furiosa: protagonist] boy is it this scene. wah#the end of this shot as capable like starts looking away like ah yeah emotion moment. well i'll give you this privacy#just like the fast & furious crossroads chat about cam fr lol like i'll respectfully turn so i'm not looking right at you for this Real Shi#responding to your reeling deepest devastation by moving forward still as far as you can? a quarter mile at a time of you#fury road

i love the way the air smells right before a storm
#itās like the whole world shifts a little on its axis#like the air grows heavy and humid and everything from people talking in the street below to the sounds of the city in the distance#takes on this new sense of foreboding and anticipation#everything stays the same but it suddenly feels quiet and muted somehow#idk how to explain it i hope this doesnāt sound horribly pretentious but you can sense the storm and itās so atmospheric i love it so much
