"She told me in the morning she don't feel the same about us in her bones It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone" - Liam Payne, Story of My Life (2013)

I can't believe that it's already been a week without my favorite 1D member!

Hello?! All I want to do is wake up from this bad dream called a nightmare and know that Liam is still here. But I can't because this is real. I can't even accept the fact that he's gone!!

Like I've always said, It wasn't his to go yet, and he was still too young to leave.

This talented and amazing man, still had so many years including watching his kiddo grow up. And as time would’ve gone on death should've waited until it was actually Liam's time to go (but even then it still would’ve been heartbreaking and devastating either way) but no this soon.

Liam once said back in 2013, "It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone".

Rest in heavenly Paradise Angel. The boys and everyone all miss you and love you so much. Fly high angel.

"I know that in the morning now I'll see us in the light upon a hill Although I am broken, my heart is untamed, still" - Liam Payne, Story of My Life (2013)

How is this even fair?! It's already been a week and it doesn't even feel like it's real because I don't know how to react not knowing what’s real or fake.

And I still wanna believe that Liam's death is fake and that he's okay but it's not possible because this isn’t a bad dream or nightmare, he's actually gone forever. 😔

I've been a directioner since WMYB (what makes you beautiful) and flash forward to 13 years later at 20 years old and I'm still a directioner no matter what. And I always will be.

But the 13 years ago 6-7 year old girl inside me from the past week has been heartbroken, upset, and crushed by the fact that her favorite 1D member is gone. 😔💔

Rest in paradise and fly high handsome angel. It wasn't your time yet, you still definitely had more years to go in the future and even watching your kiddo grow up. You didn't deserve to go this soon and this young either. We all hope you've found your peace up there. We all miss you and love you so much. ✝️🕊️😔

thinking about a very young hamlet holding his father's sword for the first time. it's much too big for him and he strains to hold it up. he wears his father's helmet and it wobbles and doesn't fit on his head. the king laughs and says he'll grow into it but he never does. as he grows it becomes evident he's more scholar than soldier. but he never forgets that moment. he never forgets the sight of his father's rare smile and the pride in his voice though, of course, both become hazy over time. especially his voice. and when his father dies and he thinks back to that day he can no longer remember accurately the sound of his voice at that moment. the sound of his laugh. the sound of him speaking through a brief smile. all he's left with is the weight of the sword which now weighs against his heart

we don't talk nearly enough about javier willingly confessing to never, ever thinking about a life without lloyd, while knowing damn well everyone in the estate would be able to see his confession. he really put his whole heart out on the sky for everyone to read like that.

he wasn't even asking if he could get lloyd back, he didn't know he was alive yet, he just wanted to know what had happened to him after crossing the gate.

he wanted to know if lloyd was happy in his next life even though javier couldn't protect him in this one so badly he was willing to let everyone know that he'd always thought he would spend the rest of his life at lloyd's side. which for someone as reserved and guarded as javier must've felt a little bit like being flayed alive lmao

Role-reversal AU where Machete opens a library on Florence and slowly becomes a very influencial local political figure, while Vasco's parents become fed-up with his "lifestyle" and send him away to the clergy (he probably has a brother in this AU, to make their decision more believable)

They reconnect in a similar way to the original, but their relationship is much more tragic as Vasco became self-hating and thinks he corrupted/doomed Machete in their youth and meanwhile, this Machete is trying to protect him from the corrupted side of the Church and possible assassination plot, that he's too indoctrinated to see happening around him

A interesting ending for this AU should be that Machete still dies, but results in Vasco finally running away from the clergy/inquisition (not sure if Vasco joins the inquisition or not, you can decide) and hiding in the country-side. Where he grows old dedicating various paintings and poems to Machete and possibly taking care of some noble's horses for a living

After Mollymauk sacrificed himself to save the Mighty Nein. After he tore himself apart at the seams to end both himself and Lucien--Lucien, who is also starting to hate the horror he's become, who is nothing but hurting and exhausted at the end, who just wants to finally rest when Molly asks if he's tired--after all that. Do you think Caleb dreads the day Kingsley tries to sacrifice himself to save the Nein? A blood hunter who always gives every last drop of blood for the people he loves?

Do you think Caleb's heart always aches when he sees Kingsley, that he ever sees that last fatal scar, and remembers Tealeaf lying lifeless and bloodied and naked in his arms? Caleb feeling hopeless and defeated for the very first time when thinks he's lost Mollymauk--when his spell fails, when all his magic isn't enough, when he pours his whole heart and soul into this desperate wish to heal, and he can still do nothing to save Molly's shattered soul.

Do you think, when he calls King his stray with such fondness, tells him to stick with the Nein and they'll always take care of him--that he always tries to keep Tealeaf close, whenever his Circus Man starts to pull away and close himself off? That Caleb will always be especially protective of Kingsley, swearing to himself that he won't lose him again?

Do you think he keeps practicing that resurrection ritual? Holding his lucky rock in his hand, going over all the words he wants to say, preparing for an offering just in case? Caleb Widogast knew defeat once, but never again. This time, he'll save him--

A young wannabe Blitzball ace. Jecht at 17 years old was still as much of a braggart as he is later in life but it took a while for him to reach the height of stardom, i imagine he has a lot of Tidus mannerisms.

I have been doing nothing but sitting in front of my laptop the past week and playing Infinity Nikki. It's so nice to have game which I am the actual target audience.

One thing that has deeply annoyed me about the response from Americans/Westerners about this week's events in Korea is that a lot of them, including people I like and respect, are like, "The protesting civilians and lawmakers who barged into the National Assembly would've been shot if this were the U.S./this would've never happened in the U.S. because people are too afraid of being shot." There's some truth to that, at least with regard to state violence, but I'm fed up because it doesn't account for how frightening this could have turned out to be had it not been for how much of an inept flop dunce Yoon Sukyeol is. It minimizes the courage of those who showed up.

Sure, it was likely that the military and riot police wouldn't have done much (again, YSY's self-coup wasn't thought out well, and there's more evidence of that as military officials and soldiers are speaking up about the lack of information they received, but I'll refrain from talking about that to avoid making this even longer than it inevitably will be, knowing myself), but let's not pretend there haven't been issues with them in recent years. They pepper sprayed and used water cannons during an anniversary rally for the Sewol ferry victims (x) (x) (if you don't understand how unbelievably cruel that is, look into the horrific Sewol ferry sinking). They tear gassed crowds (Korea has a gruesome history of this) and sprayed water cannons, and citizens have been injured and killed during the 2015 protests and 2016-17 Park Geunhye impeachment protests, notably Baek Namgi, an elderly activist whose death caused global outrage (x) (x). Park Geunhye was going to enforce martial law during those protests according to a leaked document, with hundreds of tanks, thousands of soldiers and special force troops! (x)

Not to mention, there are decades of extreme state violence that have scarred an entire country and are still super fresh for a huge percentage of the population. Again, check out that tear gas history piece. Look up the April Revolution, Gwangju massacre, and June uprising and see just how bloody they were. Thousands of civilians were tortured and killed. Look at how many protests were going on year after year during the 1980s. That isn't that long ago! All those older people who ran to the National Assembly to stop the coup? You bet a lot of them were college students who protested during that time or knew people who did. All the younger people? They may not have experienced what it was like living under martial law, but as I said, state violence still occurs, however much it's dwindled over the years, and you have to account for generational trauma. I don't think I'll ever forget the way I felt when I saw the breaking news alert about the martial law declaration on December 3. I've never experienced that, at least to that degree.

Instead of viewing the response from civilians and elected officials through the framework of police brutality in the U.S., it should be contextualized using Korea's own history. Thankfully most of the serious discussions are doing this, but like I said, even people who are smart about reading up on things have reflected on how this wouldn't fly in the U.S., not because of the difference in protest history, civil movements, and public engagement with both in the two countries but because of the military/police response. There's an insinuation there that Koreans would be more reluctant to do what they did if they knew what it's like to live in fear of violence instead of living in such a safe country like Korea...and I want to yell.

It was monumentally brave of everyone to do what they did to stop the coup. We're all laughing at how stupid the coup was and there's a reason why people were more furious than scared because of the political history of Korea and the laws set in place to protect the democracy and neutralize coup attempts, but this could have easily become a disaster. It's not alarmist of me to say so because there was no way for anyone to be 100% sure of how the military would react—especially when no one knew what the hell was going on.
