your silence was not what i wanted

your voice was what i needed

your voice reaffirming that you know but you dont hate me was what i needed

you voice acknowledging my suffering and depression was what i needed

your voice telling me that i'm crazy but dont deserve to be alone with this was what i needed

your silence is why we both bottled up our feelings

your silence is why i'm sitting here losing friends while your out there with your voics

telling them what i did

how disgusting i was how uncomfortable i made you how inconsiderate i had been the whole time

i may have used my voice but it was vague it was unclear it could have been anyone

i kept your name slient

you use my name loudly

i know you do. i dont have to check anywhere i can just tell

you were always terrible at hiding things you know

did hadrian ever stop to think that maybe he shouldn’t keep going on tours of the empire because one day some poor unsuspecting classics student would have to try and remember all the dates and locations. did he ever consider that

I’m so fucking pissed off right now. My housemate/landlord is driving me fucking insane I need to get the hell out of here. This fucking asshole moron got a small puppy with no warning or discussion, after already impulse buying 4 chickens which I had to help him not kill and an elderly cat with health problems and a flea infestation I’m going to fucking scream I hate it here so much. He did basically nothing with the dog he forced my mom to get when they were dating. I just know this dog is going to be a terribly trained nightmare and I refuse to get involved. Fuck this. Fuck him. And FUCK MY LIFE.

Something that strikes me a bit funny about the TWEWY fandom is how many posts I've seen praising the game for being "like if an emo game... wasn't emo". And as somebody who was emo in my younger years, and is still heavily involved in the alt scene (by way of graduating to punk), I think this take is a bit of a misunderstanding of what alt cultures are, and what they do. The World Ends With You is an emo game. I'm just gonna lay this one on the table. If you disagree, that's fine, but I'm going to explain my reasoning from the viewpoint of someone on the inside.

Being emo is not synonymous with being "edgy", despite what its reputation would have you think. Emo is a music subculture that was born of punk in the late 90s--though some sources claim that the term was used as early as 1982--and is highly contextual in the same way that goth is, meaning that the exact same object or article of clothing can be many things at once: goth, emo, or what-have-you. What differentiates one from another is mostly music, but can be more specifically tied to one's societal views; the way that you go about the world and what you care about expressing to others. Emo in particular is differentiated by its relationship to pain. It's simultaneously fascinated by the macabre and terrified of it, reveling in the agony of loneliness, abuse, and depression while maintaining a space for the victims of broken systems to find solace in each other. Being "edgy" is not the point, just like being mad at your father isn't the point of punk.

The World Ends With You is about a boy suffering from the ills of society. Neku Sakuraba is isolated from his community, having no apparent friends or family at the start of the game, and he's isolated from his pain, refusing to acknowledge how his persistent solitude and the death of his best friend negatively affected his life. Instead of dealing with his pain, he loses himself in the comfort of his music--something that many emo teenagers do at some point. But this, I think, is where the misunderstanding comes from. Being emo wasn't what was wrong with Neku, and it wasn't what was fixed by the end. Neku was initially refusing the part of himself that makes emo such an alluring concept to the people involved in the real-life subculture. He wasn't even dealing with his own shit yet. Neku's journey is what led him to embracing the way he felt, and even though his problems weren't immediately fixed, being honest about his feelings and sharing them with others was what helped him overcome his shitty attitude. Neku's problem wasn't being emo, you guys. It was being fifteen.

What emo is really about isn't being an asshole; it's about grappling with the ugly parts of yourself and the world around you, but not in the effort to convince yourself that these things make the world evil, because much like goth, emo finds beauty in the darkest parts of life. Emo romanticizes the struggle of mortal life as a way to keep its members alive. It says "I see you, I feel you, and it gets better some day". The message of TWEWY is much the same--that the world may be confusing, but opening yourself to others is how you find the beauty in its chaos.

TWEWY is an emo game. Aesthetics and music aside, it falls perfectly in line with what the members of the subculture believe, so stop claiming it isn't emo just because its message is uplifting.

Why are some jokers talking shit and putting the blame on Jimin for "not keeping in contact" with JK, but conveniently forgetting that JK didn't want to share the spotlight with ANYONE during both "SEVEN" and "Golden" era to the point that the avoided making dance challenges with the other members?

Oh but sure, Jimin's the asshole for not babying the one guy who was avoiding everyone (are we gonna forget also how he dissed Jimin on one of those vlives where he was getting piss-drunk & making an ass out of himself, which got Jimin dragged FOR MONTHS by jjks, kths and trashkookers alike? You guys have selective memory now?).

Nevermind that Jimin visited and comforted Jhope during Lollapalooza.

Nevermind that he visited Jin during MS, always remembered to write when it was his birthday.

Nevermind that he supported Suga during D DAY, went to his concerts and even accepted to perform Tony Montana.

Nevermind that he visited V during his promos & even participated in Vicnic.

Nevermind that he supported RM & JK's music by posting ss of him streaming for them.

Nevermind that he LITERALLY FLEW ACROSS THE GLOBE TO MEET JK & FILM A FUCKING TRAVEL VLOG WITH HIM--

Oh but he's such a shitty person because he forgot to bring the pacifier & the baby formula for the toddler with a tantrum on aisle 7, boohoo.

you know, i always find it really funny when dudebros complain about syndicate and odyssey being too "jokey" or not "taking its characters seriously" or whatever…

like, did y'all collectively sleep through "it's-a me, mario!", "i meant besides vaginas", ezio inventing the latte, bartolomeo's... just... *gestures vaguely* entire character, etc?

like, it's fine to have preferences of course, i myself prefer a more serious and grounded tone, but these are usually the same people who tout the ezio trilogy as "peak assassin's creed", call ac1 a glorified tech demo and hate on connor for being "too serious and boring", like? make it make sense!

So I have consumed that whole SH2 remake James' mental illness and SA theory document and I gotta say.... It fits. I can really see it. My eyes are open. I wouldn't put it past a game like that to make suggestions in that direction.

Also printing the Silent Hill 2 novel off to read as we speak. I'm normal about that guy and his trauma I swear
