My mom's hamster dropped dead in front of her eyes.

Leon knew he had failed. He did not fail as a knight. He failed as a friend. He failed as someone who swore to protect him.

He took a step towards the tent, a mixture of blood and sweat running down his forehead, reminding him of what he had just participated in. What Arthur had just participated in

Arthur. Barely 14 years old. Such an innocent and lovely soul. and now he stood in the middle of the tent and shook. The slightly too big armor (despite trying to adjust it) hung on his barely teenage body. The blood-covered armor. Not just the armor. That bright face, golden hair suddenly faded, flooded with a monstrous red.

He looked at him. He knew that look, he remembered it perfectly. Betrayal. He first saw it in the boy's eyes when his father first ordered the guards to take him to the dungeons. Leon swore then that he would never be the cause of that hurt, betrayed face.

He didn't even dodge the piece of armor thrown at him. If it hurt, he deserved it. How ironic the blond's words from a few hours ago sounded now

,,I can't wait to become a real knight like you"

A real knight should protect people. Not mercilessly murder them. Not what Leon just did. not what Arthur was just forced to see. "What a monster he must think I am now" Leon thought. He had seen Arthur's looks during the execution he was forced to watch and they were nothing compared to the horrified looks of those blue eyes as the horror unfolded around him. He saw the mouth open in a silent scream of terror, maybe both, as he swung his sword at the child.

It's funny how a person you thought was perfect can, in a matter of minutes, turn into the worst monster in your eyes.

He wanted to explain himself, apologize, say anything. He was ready to scream, cry, throw things. But the blond just stood there with shaking hands, rubbing his arms as if he was trying to scratch the blood away along with the skin.

,,why didn't you ever tell me?"

Good question.He knew what happened during raids. It wasn't his first time. But he was afraid. He knew how Arthur idealized him. He knew how much boy needed someone to be a role model, someone to give him some approval. But Leon was also a coward. He didn't want to lose someone he practically saw as a little brother. He didn't want to lose his little sun that shone even after the worst training.

He remembered his panic when Arthur, encouraged, told him he was going on another raid. Panic at the truth. Panic that this sweet soul would face a horror that a child shouldn't be exposed to. His prince was overjoyed but the road to the camp was a slow countdown for Leon.

,,These were innocent people... children... women... and all of you....just"

Arthur's eyes were wet, tears mixing with the dirt on his cheeks.

,, Arthur .."

,,leave me"

There was something new in these blue eyes. Not just hurt and betrayal. Coldness. Coldness that Leon saw in one person. The person Arthur should never be reminded of. And he left. And if only he knew that was the last time he would address his prince by his name.

There is a sweet tragedy in Percy choosing Camp Half-blood as his home,instead of the appartment where he grew up with his mom that now it's a safe space for another child.

CHB wasn't a good start for him since TLT has him being isolated by the others for being Poseidon's child. In SoN everyone mocked his relationship with Tyson,causing him to fell embarrassed for having him as his brother (fuck them all). With Thalia's return in TTC everyone put pressure on her and neglected Percy. BotL wasn't a good one since Annabeth got too carried away with her jealousy and didn't treat him right. TLO is the only book I can think of where everyone treat him pretty well,but there is a war to compensate that and many deaths.

Why would he choose CHB as home with all of this,when he also felt left out most of the times?

That's simple: Percy doesn't understand the toxicity of it since he grew up in an abusive house. Gabe fucked up his standard and view of a healthy home to live in,so he probably think that whatever happens at CHB would never be worst than his childhood. That's bittersweet.

Also,did he ever felt at home at all in that appartment? Did he felt in danger all the time since he was mostly alone with Gabe? Did Sally know what was happening while she wasn't with them at home?

And how does he feel now,knowing that the same appartment that was probably hell for his childhood now is so full of love,hope and safety? Knowing that his sister will have the chance to live in a good place with both her parents without having to worry about covering bruises? Something that Percy never had when he was little,not even when he went at camp?

CHB is Percy's home only because he can't have one with his mom after the trauma he endured. Give that boy an hug becuase he needs it.

It still baffles me to see some people still wishing Logan shot Jasmine in the head

DO YOU WANT HIM TO BE TRAUMATIZED?

WHAT DO THE KIDS GET OUT OF MURDERING HER? A FEW SECONDS OF "Woohoo! The bitch that caused this is dead!" They're still stuck in the phantom dimension. They're still witnessing horrors unimaginable to the human eye. Now they have to add seeing a fucking human brain to the list.

Logan won't be able to eat anything that's mushy looking and red ever again. No more spaghetti </3

Before you scold me about how amazing of a father RiseSplinter is compared to 2012Splinter, I would like to helpfully remind you that RiseSplinter’s sons’ spent years chasing Lou’s validation and Yoshi is continually depicted causally telling his boys that he is proud of them as well as the fact that even if Donnie did make him more retromutageon, he would rather remain with them as a mutant down in the sewers than return to his previous life as a human.

Examples? Well-

Season 1, Ep 13: I, Monster

“Sensei? Are you sure you’re okay?”

“I am fine. Thanks to you. You did well, my son.”

“We did pretty good too, huh?”

“Yes. I am proud of you all.”

Season 2, Episode 16: The Lonely Mutation of Baxter Stockman

“I’m sorry, Master Splinter. I wanted to change you back. But I swear, if it’s the last thing I do, I’ll-”

“Do not fret, my son. I am content with what I have become. I have no place in the human world anymore. This… Is my home. You four… Are my family.”

Lopera my child what

tapping the mic to say that while john can be pretty cynical about politics, society as an institution, all members of the occult community, and general human susceptibility to favor self-interest over charity, he is also a guy hopelessly in love with the world + with its people and he takes genuine pleasure in all the little things in life.

he may have periods of disillusionment that take him to some bleak & hopeless mindsets, but those moments are vastly outnumbered by the number of times he's stepped outside his flat, felt the sun on his face, and let its fleeting warmth carry him through the day until his next encounter with some passing semblance of joy. he may not readily trust people to do the right thing without some prodding or personal incentives, but that doesn't stop him from extending a kind gesture or a listening ear to a stranger if he finds himself in the position to offer.

GUYS IM SORRY (<- is about to draw her OC’s from that imaginary world/story/entire UNIVERSE she made in her head during 2020 and formed a deep attachment to that still lives and lingers to this day)

[londondziban]

every time someone in the fandom compares El's trauma to Will's trauma and starts a debate on whose is "worse," I lose ten years off my life

[thatonebipotato]

apparently people are already starting to babify Simon P again,,

that is an almost 60 year old man who lived through an apocalypse and the trauma of being suppressed in his own mind for almost a thousand years, who then had to be thrown into the future where he lost his lover and was left to struggle in an unfamiliar environment while he grappled with whether or not being present in time and sane was even worth it

what do you mEAN

[askthe-iii-shipchildren]

Hmmm...

Oh Candi~ I promise you the fic isn't Mpreg this time.

But um... I can't exactly link the fic, since links are supported in asks.

But if you want to know the title it's... um... long...

*Clears throat*

"One hard lesson you should learn is that a lover will do ANYTHING to get revenge on those who hurt their love, and you're about to learn it in the most gruesome way POSSIBLE." -Silver Spoon, wrote it after... that scene.

Ariadne Trevelyan in a modern au is absolutely convinced by her teenage daughter to recreate the 'she took my arm, I don't know how it happened' bit with her prosthetic. Solas can be seen in the background with his head in his hands as they do it.
