absolutely haunted by this post from the writer of PacRim.

he was destined to love monsters in any universe. it is something inherent. something fundamental. and yet he is born into a universe where they are real and killing everyone and destroying the world. genuinely doomed by the narrative because he’s autistic.

desperate Nanami coming off a looong, draining work shift and kissing you so hard that your lips make a loud smacking sound, also kissing you so hard that he pins you to the wall. and you can't catch a breath or say "welcome home" because his lips are glued to yours. he needs a long make out with you to unwind, and he won't speak a word until he pulls away leaving you gasping, then he finally says "i missed you." breathlessly into your mouth 😣🩷

I can't remember if I've posted about this before but one of the things I find really interesting about scum villain is the way it handles the cycle of abuse and how revenge is ultimately unfulfilling. Shen Jiu treats Luo Binghe the way he does because of his own abuse and trauma that he suffered. He never managed to escape from the patterns of abuse that shaped his life, and he ended up perpetuating the same cycle onto Binghe, fucking him up in the same way he was fucked up

And so Luo Binghe gets revenge on the person who hurt him, just like Shen Jiu got revenge on his abusers. And maybe it's a relief in the moment, to know that this person couldn't hurt you anymore, but it's not satisfying in the long run. You can't end the pattern of violence with more violence, you won't heal those wounds on the soul by digging the knife in deeper. Luo Bingge might have made himself into an untouchable powerful person, too powerful to ever be hurt in a meaningful way again, but he still has that gaping hole inside him, a festering wound in his heart. He's still so hungry, even if he doesn't know what for. He's still unsatisfied

And in the Bingge vs. Bingmei extra, we get a glimpse of what he's hungry for -- he gets a taste of genuine love and tenderness, and it knocks him off balance. He sees what it's like to be handled with gentle compassion, and he's so hungry for it, he wants to grab it and take it for himself, but this isn't something he can take with all his violence and power. All he knows is this cycle of violence and conquest, that's the only way he knows how to interact with the world because it's all he was taught, but the love he craves isn't something he can grab violently. And so he's left to return to his universe, lonely and unfulfilled in a world where he has everything except the thing he wants the most

i was going to make a post that was just:

steve, watching took girls he used to be in love with kiss: *in the least creepy way possible* hell yeah :)

and in the tags i typed "steve being besties with all his exes" and then immediately thought of the fact that, yes, steve is friends with all his exes, EXCEPT for eddie

like, eddie and him have a quick summer fling or something, it burns hot and it burns FAST. but then, like in all relationships, they both change. they both start thinking of the ✨future✨ and... steve's not leaving hawkins anytime soon, you know? and eddie wants nothing more than to get out. but they're both attached, more than they thought they were, so it's not necessarily an amiable break. it's not horrible, they don't hate each other or anything. but there's lots of tears and a little bit of yelling, and then...

eddie leaves. and they never speak again.

and they think of each other, sure. in new partners, in new experiences, wondering what it might be like if— except that's not the reality anymore. they're NOT together anymore, so there's no sense in wondering, right?

except... they do. they do wonder, they do wish, they do miss each other, they still want each other. but that ship's sailed. he's moved on, they think. he's moved on and his happy with someone else.

and of course, that's when mike and el's wedding happens to everyone.

cw. chubby!reader, gn!reader, no specific character mentioned, selfship lingos (f/os) used, selfship stuff in tags

reminder to my fellow plus-sized comrades that your genshin f/os loves everything about your body.

they love every inch, every kilograms, and every curves of your body. they love your love handles. they think your big arms are so soft and cuddly. they think your plump thighs are to die for. they think your tummy is the best place to rest their hands. they think your chubby cheeks are the most adorable thing to ever exist.

they think you're lovable and incredible and everything they could ever want; so what if they had more of you to hold? that's just a bonus.

they will never be ashamed to call you theirs because they adore your size, and they would never ever trade you for the world.

and yes, they will kiss and coddle you until you believe them.

i'm so used to Verbena being stocky and strong, with her striking power coming straight from the glutes, that this guy? to me, this guy looks like a stiffer breeze might knock him over.

and his little ass? it's just a pair of garlic cloves in there

everyone point and laugh at mr. garlic ass

Divinity lams AU?

Alex is some divine, etheral being and John is just a pathetic and lost fallen angel who swears his devotion to this 'otherworldly being' for the privilege of following him around and being with him for eternity because it gives him a purpose. And at first, Alex just sees him as this sad soul whos's lost and doesnt know what to do and genuinely takes pity on him; but eventually it goes from a 'worshiped and worshiper' relationship to a relationship in which Alex see's him as an equal despite being nothing but.

And even before this, John had been searching for guidance through other people because he never fully trusted his instincts and yet this had only led him to be distrusting because the very reason he had 'fallen' was because he had followed anothers lead. In turn, he turned to etheral 'gods' who he knows cant do him wrong because they'll always view themselves as above him, and with pledging his devotion, they cant turn on him because he will forever be their faithful subject.

Unfortunately for John his devotion borders more on obsession. He loves looking up to see someone so majestic staring back down at him with such a soft smile in contrast to piercing eyes and to know Alex would be looking at him makes his heart flutter and insides melt and skin on In fire(figuratively..) and makes him just want to cut off his wings and give them to Alex as a sign of his true adoration he holds for him. And obviously this concerns Alex. I mean, his poor devotee is willing to do anything for him but theres a line, right? Alex still cares for him of course, what kind of being would he be if he allowed someone to sacrifice their own peace for him?

Cue emotional outburst number one! John would be rambling softly about how if he had the strength he would just rip out his wings and alex has to lean down and gently rest his palm on John's cheek to tell him not to ruin his beautiful wings and that being with him is devotion enough for him and that physical pain in his name would only cause harm. And then tears, of course, in natural angst fashion.

Oh, and John has an immense fear of corrupting Alex the entire time due to the fact hes a 'sinner' (by his own standards) and being in the presence of such divinity as a 'corrupted being' puts Alex at risk to fall from his stance of power. But even despite his fear he can't leave not only due to this eternal soul-binding agreement, but because being in his presence makes him feel alive and as though he can feel love again even after he had failed in doing so for so many years. But in the end Alex doesnt see himself as higher or with more power but as an equal.

John would have 'given up' his ability to feel love for another in order to be fully devoted to Alex, and yet he was convinced he didnt have it in the first place so he decided he wouldnt be giving it up if he never had it. But in turn he discovered that he did have the ability to love, but it had to be discovered through giving up the ability to love anyone other than Alex, and in a way hes happier with that.

But even so, John doesnt think hes worthy enough to be so close to someone so much better than he is, and he does view it as a privilege to be there until Alex tells him to stand up in which he physically has to look down at alex(he would stand at other points, of course, but he would never physically look down. If alex would speak to him he would physically attempt to lower his height to keep Alex above him by his own personal will.) But that is the point where he would cup johns face and then tell him that he's wonderful and the most faithful devotee hes had the 'honor' of being with and then tears. so many tears. so many pent up tears form years john has been telling himself that he cant feel love and to even be in the vicinity of Alex is a privilege that he doesnt deserve just to be told to his face that this divine being loves him and appreciates everything hes done and he doesnt want John to be hurt for him.

Unnecessarily big gifs of Steve McGarrett [26 of ?]

[skoulsons]

am i watching the winter embrace on repeat and staring at joels hand so gently on her cheek as she looks up at him in such an unbelieving manner because he shouldn’t be there because he’s half dead in that basement except he is there and he’s holding her and his touch is soft and comforting and protective and gentle and it brings her back to the present and helps her realize that she’s safe now because he’s here bur also that he is alive and here with her and she doesn’t have to worry about her worst fear coming true anymore because she can feel his hand on her cheek and his arms wrapped around her and hear the sound of his voice and see the alive look in his eyes? yeah.
