I've seen that "the immortal loses their loved one but not their loved one's family; what if the immortal stayed close, followed them down the generations?" post a dozen times, and I understand it's intended to be sweet---but every single time I see it, all I can think is that it's straight-up the beginning of a horror story.

I’m too shy to post my aba fics. <- feels that I lack the ability to describe things enjoyably. So fan comic because I badly want to see interpretations of the time A.B.A finds Flament Nagel.

also it’s sort of funny how Manwë sends a messenger to be like “hey do NOT go into exile that will be BAD and end BADLY. oh except fëanor you’re exiled anyway bc of the oath. but yeah it’ll still end badly” like what did you expect him to do. obviously not mass murder, which fair, I also wouldn’t expect that per se, but “something rash bc he’s pretty short on options” should’ve been.. foreseeable? I know it’s said Manwë cannot understand evil but it seems he also cannot understand like. a cornered animal

hiromi the type to text u a dick pic (which he rarely does) and follow it up with a slutty joke about maslow:

And if you answer that it's anything besides the pinnacle of that pyramid he'll be sulky the rest of the day.

h: where is this on that maslow's hiearchy of needs?

y/n: well, this is a nice surprise. it's up there all right

y/n: or maybe the base of the pyramid? With the physiological necessities. Not sure if i can technically consider it sustenance though

y/n: every living being needs food water and air to survive - based on experience, this kinda gets in the way of that last one hmm?

h: [video attached]

OFMD Spiral Parallels 22: Ed Leaves Stede

Intro: What I love most about how season 2 builds on season 1 of OFMD is the spiral narrative structure. Ground is repeatedly and explicitly re-trod from season 1 to season 2, but in season 2 everything goes deeper than season 1. Meanings are shuffled, emotions are stronger and truer, and transformation is showcased above everything. The first season plucks certain notes, then the second season plucks the same ones--but louder, and then it weaves them together to create a symphony.

---

While the big break-up of OFMD happens when Stede stands Ed up in S1E9, Ed actually breaks up with Stede twice. It's just that those break ups are smaller: both times, Ed is entirely serious about leaving, and both times, he's back within 25 minutes of screen time. This happens because Ed is bailing out to pre-emptively avoid rejection, trying to protect himself. Trouble is, he doesn't actually have a firm understanding of who "himself," is, or why he thinks he's unworthy of Stede's care. However, he does have a firm understanding of how much he cares about Stede, and that brings him right back both times.

When Ed leaves Stede to go with Jack, he does so because he thinks it's true to his "nature." Jack's carefully brought out some of the worst aspects of Ed, including his carelessness about pain and his desire to avoid meaningful relationships. Ed's insecurities about being "unlovable" transform Stede's earlier expressions of concern about Ed's behavior into a condemnation, justifying his departure. It was never going to last, he was never "right" (good enough) for Stede, so might as well break it off now.

In contrast, while what Ed feared before was his identity was too fixed, in season 2 he runs from Stede in the fear that his identity is too fluid.

Rather than deal with that and the uncertainty it creates in their relationship, Ed conjures a new identity out of thin air, and again uses that to justify the idea that he and Stede shouldn't be together.

Ed's identity issues are serious things that need to be dealt with, but him cutting off his relationship with Stede is really just a display of insecurity. He doesn't try to talk about what's happening, he just panics. He gets caught up in himself and his insecurities, and too scared to trust Stede to love "everything about him."

Until something knocks him out of this anxiety loop.

Because underneath all that insecurity, Ed does love Stede very deeply. And while Stede is confused Ed's departures, both times he forgives Ed easily.

Because when Ed comes back, it's as an expression of concern. And what that shows is that neither of these break-ups were about Stede or Ed's feelings for him. Stede knows a thing or two about insecurity and what it can drive people to do. Those lessons were hard to learn--but that knowledge, along with the confidence that Ed loves him (as demonstrated by how hard he works and how much he pays to get back to Stede) make it easy for him to forgive, and move forward.

CHAPTER 11

Have faith, Cas pleaded to him—only hours ago, where things seemed shitty but were at least better than this. Dean doesn’t know how much faith he has left in him.  With a grim set to his mouth, Dean steps into the bunker, slamming the metal door behind him.  Time to fucking find out. 

(the chapter where shit hits the fan! enjoy, everyone!)
