#stab me harder 😌

[blupengu]

I fully blame Saint Germain for my current taste in 2D anime boys

Alternate version:

[kkbardd]

was your hand inside the box..😭? why were there wooden skewers in a box? i have so many questions yet so little answers..

also sorry for disappearing </3 school suddenly decided to get 5x harder and I have 0 time for anything but sleep

+ you are making me debate whether or not to watch jojo truly the best promoter of everything by just making it yuri-fied

omg isopod!!!! dw abt school stuff, im really busy myself for the same reason!

ok so ive been making this 1/4 bjd of an oc (the succubus i posted a while ago) as a side hobby lately. ill post pictures once i finish everything, but basically what happened was i needed to spray seal all the unstrung parts after blushing them. so i was taking a bunch of wooden kebab skewers and stabbing them into a cardboard box to hold up the parts in the air. (that way i can spray them while holding the skewers, not touching the sealant & have them dry in the air etc etc.) well of course while stabbing them into the box i got a little careless and did it with my arm over the previous skewers andddd... bam theres a skewer stuck in my hand! thank god it didnt go all the way through but it was about 1-2cm in and after pulling it out i had this huge hole in my right hand lol! afterwards (and still kinda now) I can't put much strength into it and it hurts if I do too much. i probably hit a nerve or something!

its crazy though bc a ton of other bad stuff happened right after (that's way too much to talk abt) but i ended up having to get IV's in both my wrists at the EC which made my hands even more unusable 😔 I'm doing way better now but bc of all that, the skewer incident really became the least of my worries!

I am always a promoter of jojo!!!!! its so funny you say that though, because i had the exact same interaction w my best friend who's also a lesbian. (she was the one i spent 50 mins in voice notes explaining the plot of part 4 just with the change that kira's a lesbian now LOL) if u love yuri and wanna get into jojo i STRONGLY recommend part 6!! its prison lesbians!! you really don't need to watch the previous parts to watch it, most of everything u can pick up on by context clues. it's my absolute favorite part, and the way women are written in it is really good!! i got my friend on it and she loves it despite knowing nothing of jojo before.

i love jojo so much but i must say that especially in the early parts, the women are either nonexistent or badly written. its only when you get to part 6 that they get fully fleshed out (and really well i gotta add)! but even despite that i really really love jojo for all that it is!! its such a unique show and you get so many unique and interesting moments that u really can't see anywhere else. i mean who else has a plotline where u have to fight vincent van goh made from a stand called bohemian rhapsody!? its crazy! (and ofc just know that jojo is a fighting show first n foremost, so while there can be some subcontext that makes people ship characters, there's not that much actual romance, much less queer romance between characters to speak of ☝😌)

i would definitely recommend part 6 if you wanna see strong, complex female characters with an amazing plotline. and if u like mystery with a patrick bateman-type villain, part 4 is still really fun to watch (ESPECIALLY if you watch it while imagining kira as a lesbian <33 )

[uhyeahnoabsolutelynot]

personal favorite ellie moments from the show:

-crying while sam is attacking her because it means she officially wasn’t able to save him

-“moon rocks taste better than earth rocks, why? because they���re meteooooorrrrr” (airhorns)

-verbally directing joel through their escape from the university after he’s been stabbed and is in shock

-that you can tell she was still hoping it was joel coming to get her the morning after they fought

-giggling when joel demonstrates how the grip he showed her makes it harder to pull the gun away, and when he says they’ll go up as many flights as his body can handle, and when he calls her a little shit. ep4 is giggles central god ble$$

-“we’re not leaving her” she didn’t want tess to die alone even though it didn’t make sense for them to stay (don’t think about this as it relates to riley if you don’t want to be sad) and she punches joel and screams at him and puts her full weight into resisting leaving tess behind so he has to bodily drag her away

-genuinely congratulating tommy and maria on their marriage even though she doesn’t like either of them that much and has been yelling at them basically nonstop since they all sat down together, she’s such a sweet kid 🥺

-when he tells her “stay put” at bill and frank’s house and goes off to look at the truck and when he comes back she actually had stayed put for once because she’s scared and uncertain and thinks he might be about to ditch her

-“best astronaut name, ever” you know what ellie you’re so right

-panicky slightly tearful yet determined “okay, okay” and the wild look in her eyes as she’s stitching him up

-the second time he asks her “so is it everything you hoped for?” and she does a quick little smile when she realizes he’s doing a callback

-every time she repeats something after joel, whether to make fun of him or just try it out for herself, examples include “still time to find out,” “it’s called a turnover”/“turnOVer” and the especially cute “not so sure about the dressin’”/“what’s the dressin’”

-calling him out for taking out his feelings about tess on her

-sniffing her new gun

-her little moment with the infected in the gas station basement and the fact that she keeps it a secret from joel

-showing off with her knife trick, being mouthy when joel tries to chat with her about it, then immediately getting bored and trying to start up a conversation again

-when she careens into the basement after seeing david and his guys searching for them and there’s no time to be gentle about it so she basically throws her full body weight on top of joel to try to wake him up (ik it’s supposed to be serious but the closeup on joel here always makes me laugh, this man’s fever has him on a different fucking plane of existence entirely and he’s been more or less allowed to remain peacefully unconscious for days, when she lands on top of him it probably feels like he’s getting shot into space)

-(whispering) “joel” (5 second pause) “JOEL” both the first time when she wants to tell him a joke and the second time when the writers deviously reuse that dialogue with her being held at gunpoint 😌

-the face she makes looking at the coffee (props to the production team for figuring out how to film something as innocuous as coffee brewing and make it look earth-shatteringly nasty btw, we need a new emmy category just for this)

-the morbid out-of-my-depth nervous teen reaction of laughing at a dead body falling through the floor

-whenever she takes the lead and joel follows (i.e. “let’s go” after burying the burrells and insisting the river of death is dumb and the couple living in the cabin are dumb and “we finish what we started”)

-deciding that river is now officially called the river of death

-nervous one-sided conversations with a fully unconscious joel

-not taking no for an answer and always getting what she wants in the end i.e. “not to handle my sidearm because i’m such a fucking firefly give me your gun” and “can i have some? what, just to warm up, come on”

-getting in the truck and touching everything

-the moments when she seems older than her age, like when she’s trying to act cool for riley, and the moments when she seems like a much younger kid, like on the floor of the motel

-(head in her hand) “she told me not to tell anybody and now i’m telling that first people that i-”

-everyone always says this but it really is chicken soup for the goddamn soul, that brief glance up at joel in the window to make sure he’s ready to cover her before she runs to help henry and sam

-more of a general observation than a specific moment but i love how often her politics flip-flop, feels very true to the experience of being 14 years old and trying to figure out how you feel about the world and wrap your head around the notion that people who are nice to you might be causing you harm in other less obvious ways

-ellie williams kid detective being left alone in tess and joel’s apartment for all of 10 seconds and immediately piecing together B/F, the number one hits book, and the radio smuggling code

-nervously shifting her weight back and forth after she hands him the rifle back, having taken over watch when he fell asleep, and then when he finally gives her the good job/thank you nod returning it with the teeny-tiniest little smile. a great reminder that she’s literally 14! a smart and emotionally savvy 14, but still 14. she’s capable of sticking up for herself and saying “hey you’re not treating me very fairly right now” and “i did everything i was supposed to do” but at the end of the day she still wants his approval

-smacking into him when marlene sends her off with him and tess. when some guy doesn’t let you stab him and takes your knife and threatens you with a gun and raises his eyebrows at you like an asshole and then you have to leave with him and you’re literally soooooo mad

-“let’s go find tommy and the fireflies, it’s gonna be easy” (immediately trips)

[holiday-house-of-m]

Bloody Vision is there 😒

[Not in front of Vision.] - Go away VISION

[Vision smiles, which causes you to look again between the two of them – are they dating?] - Noooo BLOODY VISION

[you’re reminded of the child who used to make you or Pietro speak on her behalf.] - Cute

[you can’t help but wonder if she remembers how it used to be yours.] - Of course she does... RIGHT PEPPA??

[Maybe Vision will give her a ring one day – a perfect new one, fitted for her] - Ew no

[you’ll watch silently as she chooses that one instead.] - NOOOOO

[why do you feel this way towards Vision? You should be happy for her.] - WE SHOULD TOTALLY JUST STAB VISION

[Vision is always by her side.] - Vision... 😒😒😒

[like magnets resisting their attraction, lingering with words unspoken] - I really like this

[Now, eavesdropping isn't your original goal] - Do what you gotta do R 😌

Oh, wait... PEPPA, this is not what i suggested. R wasn't supposed to hear this! Its just going to hold them back even more!

[However, I find her waiting outside for me every night, so I do believe she enjoys the company.] - Not your company, you idiot

[I mentioned it to Nat too] - I see you just had to get a Nat mention in there hehehe

[you haven't been imagining things. … it's suddenly a bit harder to deny.] - NOOOOO

[Can you even blush Vision? or does that ‘permanent sunburn’ shade hide it?] - lol

[Why does it bother you so much?] - R is delusional if they dont understand their own feelings

[maybe you're just upset at being the third wheel] - Oh R, R, R... bless your sweet little dumb head...

[And you'll have to pretend it's not killing you to see.] - Nooooo!

You're evil Peppa, so very evil... 😒

Now give me chapter thirteeeeeen! I wanna read the good parts

Well, I guess they're all good parts if it's you writing them 🤭

2 am, who do you love?

Summary: You feel guilty for pushing Wanda away and want to apologise, but when Vision is always there, will you be able to? And what even is their relationship?

Word Count: 2218 Pairing: Wanda Maximoff x Reader Warnings: Vision Part 5 of 'Half of My Hometown' series masterlist <- previous part | next part ->

»»————-　★　————-««

Your path is familiar, the setting is familiar, the time is familiar…but when you walk your route the next night, everything feels inexplicably different. Nothing has changed outwardly, but the air feels more stagnant, the building feels quieter, and your heart pounds faster in your chest.

You consider that there might be an intruder you have yet to spot, but quickly shake that thought away. You know the real reason:

Wanda.

Of course.

The uncertainty of where you stand with her messes with you more than you care to admit; you know you shouldn’t be this affected when it’s still been less than a week since you reunited. If she hates you now and never wants to meet you again, then it’s just a return to your normal shifts anyway, right?

Your stomach turns at the thought.

You don’t want to go back to the silence; in just two days, the nightly meetings had become something for you to look forward to – a beacon pulling you through your shift – but now you’re left to wonder if last night was the last.

The hurt that flashed across Wanda’s face has been haunting your every waking moment since you pushed her away – and that isn’t even fully accurate because it implies that the thoughts stop in your sleep. They don’t. You tossed and turned all night because of it.

It replays once again: her furrowed eyebrows, the wide eyes… then she’d wiped the expression away within a millisecond as if to hide her true feelings from you. That’s what causes you the most guilt – that’s not how things are supposed to work between friends, you’re supposed to be the one she shares her emotions with, not the one causing her to bottle them up. Even a day later, every new thought still leads you down the same path: no matter what you think of or which approach you take, it always returns to her, and whether you’ll see her again. You’ve planned a hundred apologies in your head, but you don’t even know that there’ll be anyone there to apologise to.

As the clock ticks once again towards 2am, dread bubbles up in your chest. 

You round the corner that has become oh so important in recent days. This is the moment of truth.

She's there.

But he is too.

Wanda’s eyes lock onto yours immediately, as if she’d been waiting for you to round the corner, before she breaks into a smile and calls you over with a wave. It’s too late to turn around, so you head over to the pair of Avengers, trying to think of what to say: Wanda doesn’t seem angry, but you know very well that it may be a facade hiding her hurt, just like her smile the previous night. Then the man at her side is putting on no facade at all; he stands blank-faced without a word of greeting – somewhat unnerving when you know what the synthetic Avenger is capable of.

“Hi Wanda,” is what you come up with, smiling softly at her. “Vision.”

He only nods, then the three of you linger awkwardly, nobody knowing quite what to say until Wanda finally braves a conversation.

“So, I, uh, we didn't get to talk much last night.”

You head ducks quickly, expecting a beratement. You want to apologise, to say how much you would have preferred her company to the silent walks and how much you look forward to seeing her every day. But you can’t. Not in front of Vision.

“I was the one who said I’d see you tomorrow and then,” she continues, and her eyes flick quickly to Vision, “...did something else.” Vision smiles, which causes you to look again between the two of them – are they dating? 

With the way Wanda smiles back at him, her wording suddenly starts to sound like an inside joke between the two of them – a code which they know you won’t understand. You hide the grimace that threatens to reveal your thoughts. After what feels like minutes of watching them, but was more likely only a second, Wanda turns back to you and you force your attention back to her, pushing thoughts of her and Vision to the back of your mind. Why is it upsetting you so much?

“So, I just wanted to say I'm sorry for that-”

Wait, why was she apologising? Didn't you come here to apologise? There are more questions than you can keep up with, flooding your head and delaying your responses. An apology from you to Wanda would solve a lot of them, but one look towards Vision and you know you can’t do it in the way that you’d like to. His unwavering straight line of a mouth silently reminds you of your responsibility, and Wanda’s too. Her place is with Vision now – with the Avengers – and he doesn’t seem keen to let you distract her from that. Even suggesting that she might want to come with you in your apology, had you not pushed her to go to the gym, could cause problems not only for you and your career, but more importantly, Wanda and hers. You can’t risk instilling the notion that she might not prioritise her training every night.

What you can do though, is stop Wanda apologising, and that’s exactly what you do, with a string of “no, no, no, it’s okay.”

“You’ve got to train, and I'm sure I should be focused on work anyway. I don't mean to disturb you two by always being here when you come to use the gym.”

“Speaking of which…” Vision finally says, cutting off whatever Wanda had opened her mouth to reply with.

“Oh, yeah, of course,” you say, taking the hint, “you guys can get back to it. I'll… I'm…” You point over your shoulder, to the corridor you're supposed to keep walking down. Vision takes that as his sign to turn and open the gym door, but he’s forced to wait because Wanda hasn’t moved; she’s still lingering in place, looking at you.

“Um… hope the rest of your shift goes okay.” She speaks softly and – mixed with how she avoids eye contact – you’re reminded of the child who used to make you or Pietro speak on her behalf. “I'll go in with Vision now, but maybe another night, we could…”

She hesitates when she glances up and meets your eye, so you smile as encouragingly as you can, hoping she’ll say what you’ve been too afraid to.

“We could just talk again, like the other night. I enjoyed that.”

“I did too,” you answer honestly, “I'd like that.”

“See you around then,”

“See you around, Wanda.”

With a brief smile over her shoulder, she hurries back to Vision’s side, allowing them to walk together into the gym. You watch her go, seeing how she plays with the ring you gave her while looking up at Vision – you can’t help but wonder if she remembers how it used to be yours. Maybe Vision will give her a ring one day – a perfect new one, fitted for her, rather than a young child’s second-hand find – and you’ll watch silently as she chooses that one instead.

You have to physically shake your head in an attempt to clear those thoughts; where were they coming from? What caused this sudden disdain of Vision for keeping her from you? Wanda is her own person, a person you had once been close to, sure, but also a person you’ve hardly seen in 13 years; of course she’ll have other friends, a boyfriend, a life beyond childhood memories. And besides, you and her are friends, nothing else, having a boyfriend doesn’t replace that, so why do you feel this way towards Vision? You should be happy for her. You want to be happy for her. But instead you trudge slowly away from the gym, simmering in your own thoughts.

»»————-　★　————-««

And so it went, night after night, meeting after meeting. Wanda is always there to greet you and Vision is always by her side. You'll talk for a couple of minutes about nothing much, then break apart when you have to go back to your route and Wanda to her gym training.

Each and every night though, you and Wanda pull away slowly, like magnets resisting their attraction, lingering with words unspoken, and words which would remain unspoken so long as Vision is nearby. As much as you wish that you could ask her to accompany you instead of Vision, and spend the days pondering if this will be the night you finally gather the courage to do so, when the time comes, you always hesitate. It never happens.

After so many instances of this, Vision’s now familiar voice reaches your ears once again, causing you to frown. Your expression isn't solely from hearing the obstacle to yours and Wanda's conversations, but also due to the time and location of hearing him. This isn't where you usually meet him and nor is it 2am; it's early in your shift. 

In the first few hours that you work, the Compound is yet to be completely vacant, so voices aren't unusual, but it is rare to see anyone other than the handful of agents finishing up their own shifts. Now there's an Avenger present and, if your hearing is to be believed, he's talking to another Avenger: your employer, world-saver, and leading star of your childhood nightmares… Tony Stark.

Now, eavesdropping isn't your original goal, but you're curious! Aside from the gym, there's very little reason for the two Avengers to be in this area of the Compound, so of course you're inclined to investigate what they're up to. You sneak closer and closer until the muffled voices turn into coherent speech, then pause when you work out the topic of conversation. They're talking about Wanda.

At this point, you accept that you'll be standing there for as long as you can without getting caught. You sink closer and fiddle loosely with the pockets of your belt, giving yourself an excuse for loitering if anyone were to walk past.

“-I always accompany her to ensure she is not alone, and I have seen her make good progress in our nightly sessions.”

“Why is it that you always go in the middle of the night? Are the two of you engaged in some other late night activities I need to know about?” Tony asks teasingly. You try to ignore the insinuation.

Vision seems to do the same. “Miss Maximoff prefers the gym to be quiet. However, I find her waiting outside for me every night, so I do believe she enjoys the company. Training with the whole team may simply be overwhelming for her still, but I am happy to work with her until she is ready for that stage.

“‘Atta boy! At least someone here is doing what I asked. Having something to look out for her will be good for her, ya know? I mentioned it to Nat too, but you and Wanda already seem… close.”

All of Tony's words seem to confirm the notion you've been avoiding and your stomach twists at the knowledge that you haven't been imagining things. When it’s just you, it's easy to kid yourself into writing your intuition off as just late-night delusions, but if Tony also sees that Wanda and Vision may be something other than just friends, then, well…it's suddenly a bit harder to deny.

“We have gotten close,” Vision replies. With him, it's near impossible to tell whether he means that as confirmation of their relationship or if he's simply not picked up on the billionaire's insinuation.

“Yeah, you could say that. Can you even blush Vision? or does that ‘permanent sunburn’ shade hide it? Either way, I don't need to see you blushing to know when you've got a crush-

Tony doesn't even see them at night like you do, which means they act the same during the day too – together at almost all hours of the day. Do they make more of a show of it in the daytime, you wonder? Tony seems so confident in their relationship, so there must be more than you see in your 5 minutes together at 2am. You try to clear the thoughts from your mind – not that it works – before you quickly walk away, unable to bear the conversation any longer.

Why does it bother you so much? That's the question you keep coming back to. Why should you care if Wanda is in a relationship? A relationship with Vision? He seems like a decent person, and you're sure Wanda knows him better than your brief perception anyway. They should enjoy their relationship, and maybe you're just upset at being the third wheel is all, that's a reason for feeling disappointment like this, right?

You don't want to dwell on it further, knowing your current mind is a tangle of questions ready to trap you if you dare pull on a single thread. But you've already pulled. As much as you try to focus on the rest of your shift, all you can think about is that you'll have to greet Wanda and Vision again later in the night.

And you'll have to pretend it's not killing you to see.

IS SHE DEAD???? 'CAUSE IT SURE LOOKS LIKE THAT!!

There's no way two people in a show can get hit in the head with a cannon ball and survive there's NO WAY.

anyways.

I'm really normal right now, time to wait a week. 😀

Ok so maybe something about Bo with a gn s/o who gets very giggly and flustered when Bo gives them physical affection and calls them pet names and stuff. Bo likes to tease them a lot about it and maybe he does this while dealing with tourists because he likes to watch them try to keep it together? Sorry if that makes so sense.

i think we all need a little bo in our lives so thank you for this. this idea is actually so so cute i can just imagine bo being all flirty around tourists and reader is just like ヾ(≧▽≦*)o. and as always you give me iconic asks 😌thank you babe

woah sorry this took stupid long

•bo is such a flirt. from the first day he laid eyes on you he was head over heels. he’s determined to make you his.

•issues every pickup line in the book. he definitely has them all written down somewhere

• “besides bein’ a cutie what else you do for a livin”? “well here i’m here. what are your other two wishes”. “if you was a fruit you’d be a fine-apple”.

•and his sweet southern accent makes him even harder to resist. you’re under his spell

•he’ll often call you thinks like “sugar” “honey” “sweet cheeks” or “darlin” knowing damn well how flustered that gets you

•bo will be right in the middle of handling a tourist and will decide to talk you up

•and no he doesn’t care what they think. it’s just you and him in the room.

•lester can’t stand to be in room with the two of you while vincent silently suffers. the family suffers at bo’s hands.

____________

the women thrashed violently in bo’s firm grip , screaming for help with tears streaming down her face. but no managed to stay calm and collected as always.

“you behavin yerself sugar plum”? he would ask, kissing you on your forehead. he knew you wouldn’t be able to say anything anyway so he’ll keep on with his business, carrying her down to vince.

all you could do was nod.

————

“how’s it goin sweet cheeks ? what’s a pretty thing like you doin round here”? he asked , wrapping his arm around your waist and pulling you close.

screams could be heard from inside the house. screams of agony and fear.

“shouldn’t you get that”?

bo shook his head. “nah don’t worry bout them. they’re vince’s problem now. i got to missin ya all day in the shop, you should come round and show all the guys your pretty face. they always want what they can’t have”.

—————

bo struggled to keep his prey held down. “just one kiss sweets”.

“no way bo what if they stab me or something. i’ll just wait”.

as if it was second nature he stabbed a screwdriver through the man’s hand causing him to scream before going limp.

“gimme one for good luck”.

Oh my god I just finished Lucas’s route… oh my god I’m so mmmmmmmm I don’t even know bruh y’all oh my god 😂 big fat spoilers for virche and long ramblings as usual under the cut

Oof where do I even begin my word vomit like, ?!??!??!?!?!?? The funniest thing to me is still the fact that they they didn’t bother trying to hide him being Bourreau with the exact same fucking sprite poses lmao, but I guess that wasn’t really the mystery

CAPUCINE BETTER WATCH THE FUCK OUT THOUGH IT’S ON SITE 🔫🔫 (and whoever this mysterious benefactor is… better not be some shit like, it was Salome all along lmao)

Like okay I know Lucas is a lil extremely way cracked in the head in his despair ending (oh boy oh boy) but… he’s so pretty? When he’s in his Bourreau outfit and his hair is tied up?? Covered in blood??? Stab me harder please 👀 … Do I have a problem? Perhaps… but I’m just keeping true to my dubious taste in anime men 😌

You can’t give me a pretty character with long hair and blue eyes with a gentlemanly “oh ho” personality who’s such a sweetie, while everyone thinks he’s delicate but is secretly (obviously) super strong and very sus, and then tell me how super fucked up his situation is and *NOT* expect me to fall in love????? Boy you had me at the first “ehehe” laugh, you saint-germain-esque motherfucker, I 100% have a type in these games I am very predictable 😂

Aaaaaah I don’t wanna think about Nadia… 😩 girl, sweetie, honey, GIRL. Girl. Too good for this world. Too pure, too innocent… Girl I am so sorry you’re in this game LMAO jeez. I knew… I knew shit was gonna be bad, but oh I was so hoping it was not gonna go that way………. But with everything being all about despair you knew it was gonna happen…….. Big FMA fucking “big brother Edward” and oddly enough hatoful boyfriend vibes… I DID NOT WANT IT THOUGH NO I DON’T LIKE IT!! 😭 I am so scared about what Lucas’s salvation ending is gonna be now, and where it’ll start changing from this end… because BOY. IF THIS DOESN’T GET FIXED…! I am going to be so heartbroken, family in fiction just get me y’all ;-;

… God I know it’s not all gonna get fixed though, there’s just no way, there’s too much shit going on, something’s gotta give, especially in a game like this? If it was your normal otome game maybe, but… I don’t think Nadia’s making it… and honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Lucas didn’t either… even if they both do, they’d barely be able to live another year so I can only see bittersweet endings lmao I’m very worried 😭😂 I NEED THAT FANDISK LOCALIZED NOW!!!

Also I did NOT expect Ankou to suddenly show up at the end?? Aight sir I see you, don’t worry you’re right behind Lucas for me… knowing he got his ass absolutely demolished by Lucas though is kinda hilarious, like I thought Ankou was gonna be some all powerful magic dude but nope. Lucas cut him into little bits LOOOL rip in pieces literally 💀 humanizes him surprisingly for me 🤔

And wtf was Ceres’s plan…? Like… hey lemme go die?? Hope Lucas snaps out of it after he stabs me??? GIRL PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE’S ALREADY DEAD. That’s such a shit plan how was Ankou okay with this 😂

At least uhhhh…. We’re his wife now………? Consolation prize… sorta…………?? 👀😬 yikes lmao but at least all his CGs are so pretty 😌

Wait I just checked his CGs actually… there’s… three left??? And 11/18 (oh shit that’s today’s date LOL). Oh yes, oh hell yes that means more for the salvation ending with variations, give me MORE!! I’m kinda sad now that the “good” endings are locked behind the final route… I need to know what the “good” ending is (BIG quotes around “good” lmao)

I’m gonna need to make one of those “do it for him” memes now to feel better, but I guess I’ll have to hold off until I get all his CGs LOL

OH MY GOD WAIT THERE WAS SO MUCH GOING ON I DIDN’T EVEN TALK ABOUT THE CAGE HOLY CRAP 😂 ah how could I forget?! Actually, after finishing his route I don’t have a lot to say about it… it was super hilarious when I first saw it and my only thought really was “not this shit again” lmao, but at least in this case it made more sense…

Ah okay I’m think I’m done venting… off to do Scien’s route next… maybe I’ll give Lucas a day to cook in my head though, this is the longest rambling text post I’ve ever done lmao… or maybe I’ll finish up the happy bits I have left to do from the even if tempest fandisk 😭

These two are so precious I can’t 😭

Trigger Warning: Mentions of death and possible spoilers for future chapters

Funerals.

What a funny word.

He has never been to one, he doubts he ever will be.

Winter, a tragic time for a tragic man. Haunted with the demons of his past, poor boy is trying desperately to convince his actions were justified.

They were not.

Boots stomped across cobblestone as he observed the grey humid world around him instead of the white frosty one most were expecting at this time. What would she say about this? She'd pout and lament on the fact that winter wouldn't look like winter without snow. He imagined her beside him, bundled up in a coat, her face red from the cold. How could he ever apologize?

This was one of the rare times when the heart knew better than the mind. No matter how much he sobbed and begged for forgiveness on her grave, what were the chances that she'd listen? The chances she'd grant his wish?

She might've been the closest thing to a saint, but even saints had their limits.

Walking through the damp and bleak midwinter mirrored the feeling of realizing that a flower has finally wilted. It was the first Loveland winter after a few decades to not have snow, December was stuck in the dreary November that preceded it.

Maybe that was just the world taunting him.

The dull aches he had lived with felt shaper today. He felt as if someone was stabbing his chest over and over again with a dagger. Each breath reminded him of the oxygen he's stealing should be hers. Each heart beat was one of malicious content and not one full of grace and love and kindness. Maybe he was forgetting something. He forgot how long it has been. Time and space completely foreign to him.

He thinks of her like he did when she was still here. Except for wondering what she'd be doing, he knows where she is. She's in the place where should've been.

A hearse drove by, he almost had the urge to laugh.

He didn't even get to see her. They wrapped her in a white sheet. However it didn't take long for her blood to bleed through. She once said bright red on white was a tragic scene.

He wouldn't know.

He hated not knowing. But what exactly did he not know? Colours? She taught him that. He's clueless about something much more meaningful. Perhaps it was his own feelings he didn't bother to untangle, too fearful of the result to carry on.

He lingered as the hearse stopped at a nearby funeral in progress. Two figures, clad in black opened brought out a coffin. He imagined she was buried in something similar. In a dark dress wrapped in a white sheet. Placed in a black box like a delicate porcelain doll.

A delicate, broken porcelain doll.

How tragic it was, for the poor soul that was currently being covered in rocks and dirt. No matter how hard humans tried, bugs always found their ways into the corpses. The body rots away while worms feast on their decaying features until they are nothing but a mound of decaying flesh and bones.

It dawned on him, that's what happened to her wasn't it? He could hear her laugh if she listened closely. The melodic sound was like a taste of salvation for him. He could remember the ways her eyes crinkled and the way her mouth shaped into a grin. Her features lost to time now.

He wished she had a nice goodbye, even if he hasn't said anything. Maybe the fact that he wasn't there made it nice. He realized his musings had brought him to her grave. Quiet and serene as ever. She wasn't here, was she?

What was her name? He couldn't quite remember. Maybe it started with a C or an E. Perhaps a B or an A or even a Y. He couldn't remember her name, but he remembered her soft skin and her lips against his, even if it was only for a second. He remembered her brown eyes that would sparkle and the way she spoke. He remembers that he thinks of her like a perfect being when she was every bit human like he was.

The hearse was driving away now. How much time has fled from him? As the dark car drove past the gates and down the road, Lucien wondered when it was his time to die.

He wondered if he'll ever be able to hold her again. Would she remember him? Would he even remember her? He stared down at the stone tablet that held her legacy.

What was her name? He couldn't remember.

Funerals.

What a funny word.
