Prompt: Tsubasa, bamboo : loyalty, strength, steadfastness
A/N: I had written this for a CCS/Tsubasa zine that sadly got cancelled. ☹ I’ve always loved Tomoyo’s/Kurogane’s relationship, the utter steadfastness of Kurogane’s loyalty and her confidence in him.
…
…
…
…
Sake cup in hand, Tomoyo stepped out onto her bamboo-lined balcony and took a deep breath of the cool, sweet air. It was a pleasant night for a moon-viewing and she leaned against her balcony rail to watch the party below. Bright, colourful lanterns shone in defiance to the night’s gloom, lighting up the palace’s courtyard. Below, she could make out a drunk Syaoran energetically fighting the ancient sakura tree while Fai and Mokona cheered him on.
It was cute. They’d no doubt forgotten just what they were here for. Her attendants and sister were seated a short distance away, their half of the party a more dignified one. The only ones missing were Sakura and Kurogane: a princess who could no longer afford the cost of travel and the latter which was standing behind her right now.
“I thought you would prefer drinking with them,” she said, glancing over her shoulder.
Dressed in a black and red kimono, Kurogane regaled her with surprise, his eyes widening slightly before he shook his head. “I thought you didn’t have the sight anymore,” he asked as he stepped out of the shadows.
“I do not need that or even your senses to know where you are.” Tomoyo smirked, moving slightly so he could stand next to her. A bamboo leaf brushed her shoulder. “You are very predictable.”
“Am I?” he questioned, taking a sip from his own cup. There was nothing graceful about the way he drank and even in this he couldn’t hide his brash nature.
“Very much so.” Tomoyo chuckled, cupping her cheek with hand. “You’re like a little puppy.”
“Puppy?” he repeated, aghast.
“A cute, little puppy,” she confirmed, mischievously. She glanced at Fai and Syaoran once more. Classical music drifted through the air. “And with that group, it is very helpful, I imagine.”
“It’s very annoying,” he grumbled, giving Fai and Mokona a flat glare. Despite his words, there was no bite in his tone, and she wondered if he could see how much he had softened over the years. Even his profile wasn’t as hard as it used to be, his sternness of a gentler type now.
“Your inflexibility can be,” she agreed innocently, ignoring how his glare now swung to her. “You could just enjoy the party with them, you know.”
“I did.” Kurogane smiled faintly, the limit of his honesty. “And now I’m here. To renew my vow.”
Tomoyo regarded him for a moment. “We do not have to do this every time, you know.”
“We do,” he disagreed, finishing the last of his sake before resting the cup on the railing. “Until my mission is over, until I can stay here, I want to.”
“What is the point if you aren’t here?” Tomoyo winced. That sounded harsher than she intended. Rephrasing, she added, “It is not that I doubt your loyalty. I can see it in the lengths you go to find that other Sakura and Syaoran.”
He didn’t say anything, just regarded her with dark eyes as he waited for her to finish. And that much hadn’t changed over the years either, how he knew when she had more to say.
Tomoyo glanced up at the moon, so much brighter than the light reflected in her sake. After taking another sip, she quietly set aside her own cup. “This vow is not meant to chain you, not if you no longer need it. You may return here as much as you like, but…”
When I sent you away, I understood that you might never return.
Tomoyo couldn’t voice those last words. Cowardly, she looked away. The tall stalks of bamboo on her right glowed faintly in the moonlight and she took solace in their rigidity. There was a price to pay for every wish, and hers was his company.
It was an insignificant thing in comparison to his life.
“I remember your laughter when this started,” Kurogane said. She glanced at him, but he wasn’t looking at her anymore. Instead, his gaze was locked on his companions.
“Your expression was funny,” she murmured.
He didn’t frown or even growl at that; he’d grown up in ways she hadn’t expected. “Yours will be funnier when I finally return home.”
Home? She stared at him, surprised.
“Yeah, just like that.” He grinned, all teeth, as he kneeled before her. “Like I said, I want to do this. After I find those two, I’m done with travelling.”
“What if that day never comes?” she asked, trying not to hope.
“It will come.” There was no doubt in his voice. Then again, he’d never been a dreamer, had he? Kurogane always took action with the uttermost confidence.
Tomoyo studied him for a moment. She couldn’t see the future anymore, couldn’t know if he was right, if it would take decades before he was right, but it was hard not to believe him. He’d stopped the universe from unravelling, travelled through time, and fought fate itself, after all. What was finding two people compared to that?
Giving in, she raised her hand. “Very well then, Yoo.”
Only the cold moon and steadfast bamboo witnessed her blessing.
Hopefully, the next time they did this would also be the last.
#tsubasa reservoir chronicle#tomoyo daidouji#kurogane#clamp#princess tomoyo#does she have a tag#i wonder#this can be read both ship or platonically#though i doubt these two have a ship tag#she's already niche#shipping is even nicher for her#especially with malewife fai around XD#fai just lets tomoyo have the hubby on the days they visit her world#and when they both live permanently in nihon#kurogane regrets letting them meet because it's chaos to the max#now i want to write an ot3 fic with them

2024 reads / storygraph
A Tempest of Tea
first in a YA fantasy duology
follows a young immigrant woman in a fantasy Victorian city who runs a tearoom that doubles as an illegal bloodhouse for vampires at night
when their business is threatened, she gets a chance to save it by teaming up with her best friend, a rich girl with a talent for forgery, a vampire artist, and a mysterious city guard to do a heist to infiltrate high society and collect a logbook that may reveal the extent of the corruption in the city
fantasy city with a masked ruler, arthurian elements, themes of colonialism
#a tempest of tea#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#This has a really cool concept and worldbuilding and some fantastic characters!#I like the discussion of immigration and colonialism (I appreciate a story in this niche that’s not so white)#I like arthie and jin’s relationship and Arthie is a great character.#It definitely feels like the first half of a story - like is the arthurian stuff gonna come up more or is it just...#the mc is called arthie and has a gun she pulled out of a stone. Is there more to that lmao. it does end on a cliffhanger too.#The main thing I *didn't* like is that the middle kinda turns into…miscellaneous events purely to facilitate the characters being attracted#to each other. good for them I guess but i don’t care.#(I probably should have expected that based on the author’s other duology so that's on me I guess)#(the romances also feel on the older side of YA)#I also found that the audioboook narrator paused slightly too long between sentences.#I love having author interviews at the end of audiobooks!#which also directly called me out for guessing the obvious twist but not the multiple others directly after#(granted the obvious one I was like... genuinely confused whether it was supposed to be a twist bc I thought we already knew that)#also what's up with the coconut. lol. why that specifically

The Trojan Horse/La guerra di Troia (1961)
Ignore the complete mischaracterisation of Helen and the inaccuracy of events, you need to see this sequence of how Paris dies. It's absolutely WILD.
#helen of sparta#paris of troy#menelaus#trojan war#tagamemnon#The Trojan Horse (1961)#film#*waves* hello its me. back again with another old movie clip.#I guess this is just what I do now. I've fallen down a very niche rabbit hole here haven't I asdfghkjj#I skipped around this film for the fun of it and then proceeded to stumble upon THIS juggernaut of a scene that left me :O#just speechless really. there's so much inaccuracy going on here but you've got to admit they made an incredibly tense moment.#this is the most villain-y helen I've seen I think. Not a fan of how she's depicted here at all lol#but the imagery of helen refusing the sword and dealing the fatal 'final blow' with the TOUCH OF HER HAND... absolute cinema#the red dress to match with the achaeans' red clothing... already changing alliances.#and need I say anything about the crown? and literally everything that happens between menelaus and paris here? It's NUTS#poor paris. what a gut punch of an end to your life :( the directors were out for your blood in this movie#(fyi. if the voices sound unsynced/stilted it's because they're dubbed)#rn i dont intend to watch this film further. im just neurodivergent + delight in finding shiny new objects related to my interests#teehee c: a collector of weird and obscure information at heart <3

bats eyelashes do you have any resources on tyche’s backstory. if not would you like to talk about her <3 anything about her in fact <3 i love her so and i especially love her with lucanis even though i know she is going through the horrors tm as soon as veilgaurd ends and she has to deal with his whole crow family. feel free to talk about her emotions over that whole ordeal too because I’m very interested in it and I like your thoughts about how it would down!! just shaking my cup at you atp spare tyche pls. much love!!
tyche is. yeah. “i’m the only normal person here” is a thought she has had multiple times throughout this game and it’s only true to an extent. because everyone else around her just leads very intense lives. a woman who thinks the only way out is through but instead of finding a path out she thinks she can just chainsaw her way out of the hedge maze if it gets her to her destination faster. chronically unable to say “i love you” and avoids getting attached. this whole thing was meant to parallel solas a little and the talk they have in the fade where she’s like “…was there nobody in the inquisition you care about” is almost desperate. solas picks up on that like it’s a surprise tool that will him him later
(rest under the cut because i literally just keep going sorry anon)
particularly, a big thing for her is her family, her life in rivain, and how she spends most of this game tearing herself up about it and refusing to get them involved in this ‘saving the world’ bullshit she’s doing. woman who writes to her mother and says “everything is fine. this is the easiest job i’ve ever done. the elven gods are stupid as fuck btw” and the letter is about weisshaupt LOL .. one of the craziest things in vg for me was finding out just how many personal quests involved the companion’s families, because the more she saw her friends lose the more it solidified this idea in her mind that she has done the right thing by isolating her family. she’s usually very direct but this is the one thing she’s very touchy about.
the ‘tevinter slave’ thing that a lord of fortune rook mentions to me is a full out lie told by tyche so no one goes digging into her business. she originally went into this thinking “they less we know about each other, the better. i have a life to get back to after this” and then fails miserably at trying to stay detached and finds herself really liking everyone AND fully inserts herself into their business. she can’t just hear things like “my brother is being manipulated” “my mom doesn’t care about me” “my grandmother is gone” “my baby skeleton son who has done no wrong” “the dwarves need us” “i have to save the griffons. the identity crisis doesn’t matter so much” “i love my hometown and i can’t save it” etc etc and not desperately want to do something to help
sort of meta wise as well because people have critiqued how it’s always rook helping, but not the companions asking rook if they need anything. not to me. not if that was on purpose. a kind of, “i can fix this, and then we can all go home. because that’s what i want, of course. nevermind how these guys have changed my life. i’m sure the hole in my heart doesn’t mean anything”. AND its HEAVY on the lucanis romance. every moment she spends with him, the worse she falls in love, and the more she’s convinced there’s nothing but tragedy to come when he leaves her for the crows. the nuclear level fallout that almost occurs when lucanis says he’ll stay with her as long as he can hold off the crows is so bad. she takes her own duties so seriously and doesn’t expect herself to be what changes things, for anyone. not even necessarily because of low self esteem, but that she is the most pragmatic woman alive, and to a fault <3
you can imagine the weeks when she’s trapped in the fade prison when her family actually shows up like “minrathous just got nuked and my daughter is nowhere to be seen. something has to be wrong. what the fuck happened” and everyone gets about a month to come to terms with the fact that tyche has lied for the better part of a year (not sure about veilguard timeline. i think its minimum 4 months) and unfortunately have to find out a lot more about her through her siblings, and get to stew on that information for a while. i picture awkward conversations and maybe some bickering, and it’s lucanis who is like “well right now she’s dead. so can we focus on getting her back so we can actually talk with her?” <- man who bared his whole life to her and found out she didn’t do the same. i love self sabotage. i think they have a very long talk when she gets back, and the last minute sex has to be shifted a bit in my mind to make some room for what tyche assumes will be a break up speech that turns into a declaration of love and patience. this rewires her brain
aaand the crow stuff (sorry it has taken so long to get here) makes more sense to everyone and how tyche has reacted when they see how much of a unit her family is. tyche can’t picture the kind of betrayal and fighting because she has never experienced it. there’s probably some longing from lucanis here (🌀🌀 oooh you wanna leave your fucked up home sooo bad 🌀🌀) . illario in particular to her is absolutely unthinkable, and despite my adoration for him, tyche hates his guts <3 she also is very close with her grandma and doesn't at all understand caterina, but she's also primed to expect the best from family and it doesn't totally compute what caterina has done until lucanis (or illario. the angst potentials of it coming from illario compel me) actually spells it out for her and then the family dinners get REALLY bad
#sorry this is already so long. she has other backstory details that fill this out but for now im leaving it here THANK U ANON FOR ASKING MEE#i love to talk about my beautiful girl. the only woman ever. MWAH#as much as she is trying to be JUST coworkers#tyche is at her core a kind person and she can't ignore things like this <3 maybe she would have flourished in the inquistion tbh LOL#also a chronic worrier. and just a person who cares deeply#i love her. anyways#tyche laidir#veilguard spoilers#answered#anonymous#also didnt go into depth abt the crows + family too much sorry. its not like im not thinking abt it tho#im looking at the word count and deciding that enough is enough. LOL#edit. fixed the read more i forget fiddling with it makes it drop a paragraph#the point is. with varric dead someone has to fill out the lying dwarf ecological niche and its not going to be harding

how have i not written Scheming Queen Mother Frigga yet? i mean she's halfway there already that's like someone already starting writing it for me.
#i suppose she was queen mother in a couple of fics but she didn't scheme or at least not in the way i am apparently really into.#not like when i gave sif and sylvie male heirs and they immediately started planning their regency eras.#fandom LIKES frigga so she's oppressed by Odin but ALSO she has magic powers. you can see where i'm going with this right???#“oh no how AWFUL that Odin mysteriously suffocated in his sleep! and when my oldest boy is only 5 years old! Whoever Shall Help Him Rule?”#Regent Frigga AU where she Catherine de Medici's her way through a few minorities?#AU where she really *does* prefer Loki because he's her bio-son and Thor isn't and oh she has plans..?#her considering regicide cos Hela's already been forgotten and now one of her remaining kids is in the dungeons?#...look i don't make fun of YOUR weird niche interests. at least not in public. not often anyway. not what most people would call often.#Oh Frigga No!#mcu tag

||. finally going to bed thinking about lore - keeper asgardians . thinking about how intelligence and wisdom are one of their favored traits. thinking about how thor is the best of every asgardian ideal . thinking about how he is wise . thinking about his street - smarts . thinking about how he is also knowledgeable in legends , lore , and folktale. he is adaptable . he takes this knowledge , adapts to it , and crafts himself into something stronger. he is ever growing , and one of those ways is how he seeks out knowledge , and knows well to keep a sharp mind on the tales told by word of mouth or written on a page.
#(ik loki is book - smart and all that and good for him)#(i think it's clear that thor absolutely relies on loki to have increasingly /niche/ knowledge about things esp where magic is concerned)#(but i don't think he relies solely on loki to obtain and retain that knowledge. because thor also seeks it out.)#(in the first film /he/ is the one to educate jane - an astrophysicist - on the truth of the nine realms. he's able to TEACH HER-)#(-about the alien world she truly lives in. that was all him.)#(in TDW it's shown that heimdall taught thor about the convergence himself and that thor was very knowledgeable about how it works)#(in that same film he's shown to have a deep understanding of asgardian history - taught by odin himself in some respects.)#(he's ALSO very familiar with the hall of knowledge where the tree is and commends jane for picking it up so fast.)#(he's /also/ able to instantly deduce that what is hurting jane is foreign to earth. aka alien. aka something cosmic like HIM)#(i can't remember off the top of my head how they narrow it down to the aether but he was clearly already on its trail)#(and that's just /his movies/.)#(in avengers 1 he's instantly able to tell that there's a bigger foe at play behind loki's attempted siege of earth.)#(he's also the one to have extensive personal knowledge of the infinity stones in avengers 2)#(anyways all of this to say is that thor is INCREDIBLY intelligent and nobody gives him credit for that and it makes me mad.)#(just because he doesn't talk about it the way someone like tony stark or bruce banner do doesn't mean he's not right up there with them-)#(-and honestly probably /surpasses/ them bc he's so friggin old and literally alien.)#(but he lets them do their thing and only corrects them when they actually need it bc he LIKES to see them learn and be smart and cool)#(that's their thing!! good on them. he loves to see his human friends thriving. eveniftoasgarditsrudimentaryasallhell)#(anyways thor is smart and yes this includes book smarts and i WILL throw hands about this.)#( ooc . ) — stories that leap from the page .#( headcanon . ) — glory to the man who toils for his land . may it ever prosper .#(not even hc tbh it's just fact)

fright night 2011 remake 🤝 heathers musical adaptation
changing the characterization of the protagonist to recently have fallen in with the mean “popular” crowd at school abandoning their “uncool” childhood best friend for social clout only to realize that they were wrong after their friend almost dies, presumably to make the protagonist more relatable/likable because they are the audience-insert character while still aligning them with a group of characters that the audience is supposed to hate for plot reasons
#(which imo is kind of a lame writing choice for different reasons respectively but w/e)#(in fright night it’s so that the main character can achieve teen male fantasy fulfillment of having a hot gf + high social status while#still being ‘different’)#(while in heathers it’s so that the main character is only briefly ‘corrupted’ by the evil popular girls so that we like her more#even though she’s been friend with them way longer in the movie + is way more complicit in how they treat other students at the school unti#she meets someone who pushed back on her comfortable position in high school social status and she finds herself on the other end of their#antagonism and decides it’s bad actually. which is more interesting to me!!)#anyway. idk#might be too niche sorry i was already thinking about how fright night was adapted to speak to 2010s sensibilities of filmmaking/pop culture

UGH i wrote another stupid small thing 4 swapinverse.... idk whats wrong with me why am i writing so much swapinverse stuff when i havent even finished it. anyways swapinverse killer here take this (this one is much vaguer bc it takes place before a lot of the more like obvious events happen??? idk only i understand what i'm talking about here)
-
open eyes. greeting by the dark ceiling again. get dressed. typical routine for him… nothing new. nothing interesting. papyrus will knock on the door soon. he should probably prepare for that. no need to stay in bed. that won't do anything anyways. he’ll still feel nothing. like normal, he knocks after the jacket is put on. and he opens that door, to be greeted with the enthusiastic, smiling face of his brother.
sans smiles. obviously, he has to. otherwise paps will get worried, and he doesn't wanna have to deal with a worried paps. it just makes things worse for everyone. they walk through the forest, paps leads him to the guard station, and he sits. same as usual… the exact same. the same routine, nothing new. nothing new. the same. it's all the same.
sans had long since gotten tired of this monotony. soon, chara would come out of that door. he’d introduce himself to them, and they’d play that short game of pretend where they pretended not to know each other. like they always did. chara mentioned something about it being scripted or something, but sans couldn't be bothered to care. besides, the human always mumbled random stuff like that. it meant nothing. nothing new. they’d kill the rest of the underground, he’d fight them because he has nothing better to do, and die.
although they did mention that deal they’d been talking about? what was that? join them? yeah, no. he wasn't gonna do that. no matter how many resets passed.
oh. here they come. better get on track. or onto script, like chara says. for some reason, they say that. the saying gets stuck a bit in sans’s head. just a bit though, since it’s a new thought. and they turn, and sans shakes hands with chara.
he’s long since ditched the whoopee cushion. despite them still doing what was practically a ritual at this point, that was the only change that ever happened. nice that he chose for the newness, but it didn't change much. but… something was off. something was wrong. and sans could feel it. he could feel it. and that was what was wrong.
it wasn't with the way chara smiled, or their posture, or how their hand was outstretched. not the strange, expectant excitement in their red eyes, although that was a bit new. it wasn't even all of the dust covering them, certainly from the ruins. no, the issue was from sans himself. he could feel something wrong. like some sort of internal dread? no, something worse… an ache? he’d gotten used to all the one’s he normally felt, so what was it?
once the human’s hand left his and walked through the gate, he knew what it was. something… that something he could feel. that something that passed through the barrier of apathy he’d built all this time. an itch? sans scratched at his head, just idly. physical or not, he didn't know. he had to figure it out. and so, he followed after the human.
after a while of watching them, chara, do their… usual business, sans had came to a conclusion. it was both. and also, neither. the itch was something that he could feel, but not physically. so it was a mental itch. and that itch managed to effect him so badly he felt it on his bones. strange. and for some reason, as he watched chara slaughter one after another, kill and murder another one of his kin, sans couldn't wrench his eye lights away from the sight. for some reason, he couldn't stop watching as chara singly handledly destroyed his species. for some reason, he followed.
"it's not that bad, anyways. just… morbid curiosity. it wouldn't hurt to just… scratch that itch a bit. nothing will come of it."
and sans made sure to say that one out loud, just to convince himself.
-
oooh pal buddy you do not know what you are in for!!!! you are about to experience terrible suffering at your own hands!!!! sucks to suck lmao at least your chara is just as confused as you are during the process haha! i love swapinverse this is so fun i keep on saying that but i really should write more
#dude savior stop talking about scripts and stuff you dont know what just happened to YOUR script#so i did like a little thingy for paranoia/horror. and now one for killer/savior. that leaves mania left ofc#swapinverse is taking over i need to be lobotomized#ok back to that one friend i think i mentioned earlier. i think i might be a bit too weird already#like i mentioned selfcest and ao3 and like immediately i felt like i was being judged. idk maybe just me#she made an alpha joke and i said ur alpha style doesn't effect me im a bets#and i was talking about abo/omegaverse while they were talking about wolf rankings and stuff#am i TOO chronically online??? AM I TOO WEIRD?????#i feel like a grandpa with the glasses reading the newspaper because i feel outdated#i feel too niche.... maybe i should get more interests than just this kne...... whatever#they friended me on roblox so maybe we'll actually play a game together one day and then ill finally have a reason to play roblox again#tricule write#omg TWO writing posts??? triglycercule WHATS POSSESSING YOU#the urge to stay up is. its 1 am rn i wanna sleep because sleep feel.soloo good#but also i gotta finish laundry but keep getting distracted with writing/tumblr#i should stop that and get focused. ughhhhhh

I showed my sister the post with me getting lost in the woods and she asked me "are you famous or something?" Because she was wondering why so many different people messaged me. How the fuck do I explain my situation to her.
#I'm a niche micro celebrity in a very specific part of the internet#she's gonna think I'm insane#i mean more than she already does

thinking about how raph, april, and mikey are less focused on by the fandom than donnie and leo, the only two main characters in rottmnt with white voice actors
#to be clear this is not a “callout” nor am i trying to inspire discourse/attack anybody#it’s just something i’ve been thinking about for a while that i feel deserves more... ig recognition? by the fandom at large#like i know a part of it is definitely the shows’ fault and their own unspoken biases#but i can’t turn a blind eye when i see human versions of the turtles that consistently have see and lee be lighter skinned#even if they are all represented as poc#like to reiterate: this is not a call-out#it could absolutely just be the niche of the fandom that i find myself in (in which this is a massive self report)#and i absolutely need to do better as well!!#but i haven’t seen this talked about as much as i feel it should#esp with april— i mean i already am aware about the fandom bias toward male characters#but it makes it doubly hard for her character which is a shame seeing as she is a queen#+ my fav representation of april in the entirety of the tmnt canon so far#i understand with mikey that it could be excused due to the fact that his character was focused on less#but raph? he has sooo much good characterization that i often see given to leo in fic/fanart#like i said: this is a lot more nuanced than what i’ve talked about#and i am by no means perfect#i just think we as a fandom should at the very least recognize this aspect of ourselves#idk i’m definitely not the best person to be talking about this#but i’ve been turning it over in my head for a while so i figured i might as well just. say it#rottmnt#rottmnt meta#racism#tw racism#internal bias#if anybody has something to add feel free#just like. be civil please? like i don’t think anyone is doing it on purpose (obviously)#just something to be aware of

i think after settling into the pack a little circe starts loudly saying things like 'you know i think going evo really influenced my relationship with my gender' and all these grown ass evos around her go huh? what? your what with your what?? but she will not stop until these obviously transgender ppl understand that they are trans gender
#i think this is a genrex blog#this was originally going to be a really niche tweet for my really niche au but y'know what? she can just do this.#(looking directly at the dog whose gender is ??? servitude???) 'Yeah idk I just think the physical change awakened something in me'#'Anyone else. Anyone else want to share.'#sorry circe that I always make you do this to the pack but they need it badly.#she says this to rex once too and he gets very confused bc 1. what do u mean 2. he's already trans can he be More trans

No thoughts head empty only Kuviren rendition of That Hürrevran Dream Sequence on my mind
#yeah you know what this goes on the main blog#'nia what are you doing' coping with the fact I have an entire miserable year ahead of me#look. the vibes are there okay#dreaming about your arch nemesis seductively crawling into your bed to taunt you. telling you she doesn't bite...#if that's not suiren dreaming about kuvira post failed assassination attempt I don't know what is#homoerotic toxic yuri my beloved#'but nia. that wasn't a wet dream. that was hürrem stress dreaming about Mahidevran taunting her about her ex lover#who would be executed if it was discovered that he was her ex lover because she's the sultan's property now#and the reason it was Mahidevran is because she already tried to kill hürrem several times and hürrem sees her as a threat#hence her appearance in her nightmares'#yes. and?#do you have a problem with true love?#you know. before I used to say that my posts have a target audience of one but at least they were sorta comprehensible#this is even more niche. there is genuinely only one other person who will understand The Vibes I'm talking about#literally going through double the brainrot rn. someone save me
