art idea: icemav in the stands at one of bradley’s baseball games (elementary, middle, or high school — i feel like he played for a while). i would love to see them in baseball caps, cheering, with sodas and hot dogs and the whole nine yards.

i love icemav doing different activities (especially on romcom esque dates), so if that jogs anything either, i’d love to see it! thanks for making such great art.

he struggled for months to hit it right, nerves wracking through him.

but this time he waited... for the right moment. it finally came.

Most people assume that nothing much scares Edwin. He spent seven decades in hell. What, up here on earth, could possibly compare, after that? Turns out, quite a lot. In fact, Edwin scares incredibly easy. Spiders. The sound of a child's laughter. Old porcelain dolls. The dark. And then there's the myriad of creatures and vengeful spirits they face on cases. He is scared very often. He has simply become skilled at operating as usual, even in the depths of terror. Even when every non-existent nerve is screaming at him to hide. Even when his vision is going fuzzy at the edges, his ears ringing. Hell didn't make him less easily frightened, but it did give him the ability to carry on when he is.

#dead boy detectives #edwin payne #i have lots of thoughts about him all the time #i think Charles is probably the only person who knows how easily frightened Edwin truly is #Edwin had mostly composed himself by the time he and Charles met #but upon leaving the school grounds he found that it was easily unraveled #he was still a bundle of paranoia and fraying phantom-nerves #but Charles never made him feel bad about it #always just say close by and talked and gave him the time and space to calm himself #and eventually it got easier

Hold Your Hand

Johnny Storm x Reader

Synopsis: Johnny wants to hold your hand

Contains: fluff

You're standing in the kitchen, talking to Sue. Johnny's fingers twitch as he thinks over his plan. He's going to stroll in, throw a smirk your way, maybe a wink if he's feeling lucky, brush his fingers against yours before intertwining them. He's going to hold your hand.

Except, every time Johnny has tried, he fumbles. Last week, Johnny had decided he was going to try and flirt. He's not sure what happened in the conversation, he was too busy trying not to stumble over his words. But you had patted him on the arm and walked away. "That was painful," Ben had joked, patting him on the back. Johnny had glared and shrugged him off.

Last night, he had spent ten minutes talking himself up in the mirror. When he had finally mustered up the courage, he had walked up next to you. You had smiled at him and he quite literally tripped over his own feet.

Johnny had fallen with a loud crash, knocking a chair over. Everyone had surrounded him to see if he was okay, you laughing slightly. It stung, he knew you weren't being mean (and he knew it was kind of funny), but it stung. Johnny had gotten up, brushed everyone off and stormed out.

Today was the day though. Johnny took a slow, deep breathe. He can flirt, he's done it multiple times. Flirted the pants off anyone he's wanted. Had fun nights. But that's all it was, fun for one night. This was real. Serious. He had feelings. He wanted more then just one night. But first he had to make his move.

Johnny cleared his throat as he walked into the room," Hey." You look over your shoulder, grinning," Hey, you." "Hi," Johnny smiles, coming to a stop next to you. "You already said that," Your smile widens.

"Oh, uh, yeah." Johnny faltered, looking over at Sue who was amused. Johnny gave Sue a look and she laughed to herself," I just remembered, Reed needs me." "Huh? Oh, okay," Your brow wrinkles slightly with confusion before clearing.

You lightly touch Sue's arm, going to hug her, but Sue flinches back. "Your hands are like ice!" She frowns slightly. "Yeah, they do that sometimes." You shrug it off, looking down at your hands. Sue gives Johnny a look, nodding towards your hands.

"Oh! I can help!" Johnny straightens up, holding his hands out. You blink at him for a second before grinning. You hold your hands out.

Johnny gulps lightly, before grasping your hands in his. Everything seems colder to him now that he's able to catch fire at any moment. But he can tell your hands are even colder then how you normally feel.

Johnny closes his eyes so he can focus. Calling the flames inside him to warm his hands up, but not enough to actually light. He really doesn't want to hurt you.

You smile softly at him. You don't think he knows that when he focuses, his brow furrows and his tongue sticks out slightly. He holds your hands softly, carefully. His thumb rubs against the back of your hand ever so slightly.

Johnny's eyes flutter open. You swear you can see the flames in his irises. "Better?" He mumbles. "Yeah..." you smile softly. Johnny grins, looking down at the ground bashfully. It's cute, endearing. "Gonna hold my hands more often?" You ask, stepping closer into his space.

Johnny inhales sharply," If you let me? Yes." "Yeah?" You murmur, pulling his hands to wrap around your waist. "I'll do anything you'd let me." Johnny mumbles looking at your lips. "Anything?" You remove one hand out of his grasp, which Johnny would mourn except your hand is cupping his face.

"Anything for you," Johnny whispers. You inhale,"Then kiss me." Johnny leans in, hesitating right before his lips touch yours, giving you a chance to pull back. When you don't, he tentatively presses his lips to yours.

You sigh and lean into the kiss, gently moving your lips against his. Johnny can't hold back the groan that escapes him. You pull back too soon. Johnny tries to chase your lips, and you assent giving him another quick peck on the lips.

Johnny's eyes flutter open," Wow." You chuckle at him, as Johnny stares in awe at you. "Let's do that again- let's absolutely do that again," Johnny declares.

"Can you make out elsewhere? Some of us would like to eat lunch in peace," Ben calls out, breaking the moment. You and Johnny separate, looking at the ground before sneaking looks at each other and grinning. Johnny runs his hand across the back of his neck before looking back at you.

"I mean it," Johnny smiles at you," Anything."

#Ben is like FINALLY but also is like ew Johnny you're like an annoying little brother I dont want to see you kiss #Johnny goes back to his room and is like “I still got it” in the mirror while he violently shakes from nerves #Anyways I have always liked Johnny storm and that trailer...he's pathetic he's adorable i love him #I dont care if this is accurate this is MY version and actually it IS accurate because have yall never seen a flirtatious man catch feeling #They fumble left and right!!! They can't say a single word correctly!!! And so would Johnny!!#He like likes you (afraid to say love because he doesn't want to scare you)!!! He has big feelings!!#Johnny Storm x reader #Johnny Storm x you #Johnny Storm x y/n #Johnny Storm/you #Johnny Storm/reader #Joseph Quinn #Jade is Talking #Poor circulation people rise up this is our moment

this soundtrack genuinely makes me so emotional like damn. the jack vs fiona scene at the end of ep 2 is already so perfect and then they had to go make this beautiful as hell ost with it too. those bastards

#yeah im gonna gush abt the borderlands ost again #it slaps so hard and i dont see many people talking abt it SOB #but this one especially got me by the balls #cause it really adds to the intensity of the decision of whether you should trust jack or fiona #like you can feel rhys' nerves and conflicting emotions through the soundtrack alone #cause even tho you yourself know jack is Bad and fiona is the objectively good option you also know that rhys has a different perspective #fiona is a pandoran con artist which should be reason enough to not trust her (dude is NOT immune to hyperion propaganda)#but shes also tough and survived for 29 whole years WHILE ALSO protecting her sister so she's gotta be doing something right #and even rhys could tell fiona is very genuine. plus they set out to find the vault together so he kinda has to trust her at some point #but then theres jack who hes idolized for so long and hes literally in his ear telling him not to trust fiona #but trusting jack means giving jack way too much access to his cybernetics and even tho hes a massive fanboy hes also aware of jacks nature #and on top of this hard decision theres also a time limit. like he had to make this choice on the spot #IM TELLING YOU MAN THAT SCENE IS CRAZY. I GET GOOSEBUMPS THINKING ABOUT IT #and no matter who you pick at the end youre always like 'well. this doesnt bode well'#because youve either essentially given jack access to your brain or youve pissed jack off and neither of those are good #rhys was in a lose-lose situation there #txt

#today my grandparents were over #and my grandma mentioned that my cousin's best friend and his long-time boyfriend are getting married tomorrow #and my grandpa started talking about it with my mom #and what he said was 'you know i don't have any problem with that.#i've never met a person like that who wasn't perfectly nice. they're great people.'#and my mom said something like 'yeah and that's just the way of the world now'#and grandpa said 'well actually that's always been the way it's just now they're able to be open about it'#in such a pleasant proud way #like he was just genuinely happy that queer people are able to be open and be themselves #and i nearly broke down crying #because i've always been too afraid to ask #but it is a relief to know he wouldn't hate me if i ever got up the nerve to tell him i'm bi #anyway #personal #also #in case it matters #this man is 91 years old #and i'm very happy to know this is the way he thinks

ok so now i know what a butte is and i also know how it's pronounced but that still doesn't make the constant butte mentions any less funny

#am i becoming more of an ilw blog than a general choices blog?#dw i won't change my theme again i still love michelle #but dear god i just finished 3rd play and #i think i DO have a fave li after all...#or maybe it's just the dynamic he has with the specific mc i played as?#but either way i literally have so many screenshots of all the sweet things he says to them and #god im in love #he's so my type #still love abel and joss with my life tho #but why the fuck does abel have the possibility of dying every time i don't romance him #everyone else always has enough nerve to not get the possible death options #but abel never does???#he got separation anxiety or what

it may come as a surprise to you all but im thinking about kingdom rn

#what is on my mind. well im specifically thinking about jahan just did the new bss song dance and it's reminding me #how jahan and arthur did the maestro dance with dino and afterwards jahan talked about how mortifying it was to ask dino to do it #then like two weeks later the maestro mushow behind was released and the behind of tkds challenge was featured in it. and #some of the svt members were talking about how happy it made them. outside of tkds range #and when someone pointed out to jahan how they made it into the behind he lost his shit #and i am also thinking about my dann jahan unit pola. and sometimes i don't realize how much detail is in a polaroid #and how lucky i am to have a signed pola of my bias line in one of my top fave stage fits. like how did the universe align like #that for me. that's crazy #and well im thinking about how much i like them. i think when i first got into kpop i didn't understand how people decided who was an ult #or a semi ult. or whatever. and the time just moved so fast and my feelings fluctuate so much how do you know but now i just knowwwwww #when i look at them and when their songs come on shuffle and when i gif them and when i look at my album shelf and i see the hok albums #line up and my photocards and how they're the biggest portion of my binder and how i felt seeing them in concert both times #and im also thinking of the concert im thinking about the shitty ada route for the venue. how the ramp was a solid 45° angle and i managed #to go up but i was so nervous to go down cuz i certainly couldn't walk my rollator down and i didn't wanna fall #and i had to be nearly carried down cuz i was so unstable and it was so embarassing and then i heard dann singing and it was just a really #grounding moment. his voice is so comforting to listen to on my phone and it was so invigorating to hear on stage but to hear it #softly up close. because he always sings back stage and the ada route was backstage and they were behind me to go back to #the green room and I didn't know and. it was such a surprise but it was so nice. so nice #so calming. and how i was so embarassed my rollator was taking up space when i was talking to ivan and when i readjusted it it got #stuck on a crack in the floor because of the angle and i apologized but he immediately told me it was okay and helped me get it unstuck cuz #i was shaky on nerves and adrenaline. and they're just sooooo. wow #ughhhhhh and hwons smile when i did polas with him first tour. and how he held everyone's hands despite the staff saying not #to touch the artist he always grabbed your hands first if you let him and i did cuz i didn't know what to do and he was just so excited #to be there and getting to talk to him while we waited for the pola to print. dude he's so tall like i knew he was tall going in but nothing #prepares you for How damn tall he is till you're right there next to him and god #they r the best. genuinely. :•( i love them so bad #speaking.txt

That scene post dressrosa where luffys sleeping off his fight and Zoro wants to wake him up so bad.... makes me think about how Zoro only rlly sleeps(not naps) 4hrs a day. so, he's up late a lot and sometimes gets a spike of energy and just gets bored and goes to luffys bed to wake him up bc he knows luffys always down to clown

#time to get analytical bc i started down a thinking about zoro rabbit hole #but anyways #i feel like zoros mediation helps him regulate his emotions (amongst other things)#meditation** and i had to fix autocorrect like 4x and it still didnt fix it smfh #and that he uses that to gain mental and emotional strength and that is a big part of his character #and hes rlly good at it #but everyone gets those moments where they cant sit still #where their nerves are on edge #and theres many instances u can see that in zoro #and usually when hes like this #hes also antsy to drink #or like during fights where he turns to nonstop joking to cope with the intense situation #or he turns to luffy for distraction or guidance (always think about when they got off the ship at thriller bark)#anyways these are the moments where you see the “imperfect” parts of zoro #the natural parts of him that are intrinsic to who he is as a person #he can regulate and cope as much as he wants but #hes still a goober that gets anxious and nervous #what i love is that he recognizes it though #how hes feeling and what makes him feel better and more at ease #he takes care of his emotions as its needed #imo #anyways he wakes Luffy up and they play night crawlers on the deck and eventually usopp hears and he joins too #and eventually robin but shes just tickling them #with her 100 arms

like out of all the many, many traumas ive given elspeth my favorite has gotta be the deep roads lol. and specifically the way she never really got OUT of them. yeah so maybe her body did but not HER. shes still down there with ruck and helspith every time she closes her eyes. and during future expeditions when she goes down into the deep roads for real, it doesnt feel like some horrible nightmare it feels like REALITY and its the surface and love and warmth and alistair thats nothing more than a pleasant dream. one shes always going to wake up from. bc even in her happiest moments she's never not aware of the darkspawn digging up towards her just a few miles under her feet. and never not feeling the eyes of the deep roads looking at her, gleefully waiting for her, and knowing its not going anywhere

#i love shale but for elspeth's worldstate i dont recruit her bc im so obsessed w the dynamic of it being elspeth/alistair/oghren/the dog lol #oc: elspeth #tay plays dao #she got SEVERE shell shock being down there in the dead trenches after the realization that came from helspith's poem #why shes never seen any female darkspawn and why there apparently arent as many female wardens either #and like. Understanding that death is the absolute best case scenario for her.#alistair had to 100000% step up as the leader because she was completely out of commission. barely able to breathe let alone fight or lead #going from this unstoppable warrior who NEVER loses her nerve or control on a battlefield #to nearly dying to the broodmother bc she was so fucking terrified. bc all she could see was her own fate mirrored back at her #finally FINALLY understanding what it means to be a grey warden. and then trying to reject that reality with her entire body and soul #she pulls herself out of it enough to get out alive but she never had a moment of like... triumph over the deep roads where she had a burst #of courage and saved the day or whatever. thats not usually how trauma works and so alistair carried them thru that #thru the broodmother and the anvil and branka and back to orzammar just as elspeth was beginning to put herself back together #afterwards the lack of closure to what was one of her ''weakest'' lowest moments rly weighed her down with guilt and shame #and its only a year later during awakening when she finally reconciles with having NO choice but to go back into the deep roads #and being able to kill the mother. THAT helped. that restored some small part of her #gave her the strength to start going back down there when the need arose. resigned to an early death but ready to put up a fight #but ye. still such a fundamentally devastating thing she went thru which altered her entire personality to the point where she starts fully #embracing being a warden (bc how can someone who's seen what shes seen and done what shes done be anything else???)#and INSISTING alistair take the throne despite having always been supportive of his desire not to. even if it means she loses him.#bc its a last ditch effort to save him from the fate she's completely surrendered herself to #sigh. this game man.#i need dadw to Confirm that the grey wardens have found a cure and alistair and hof are safe because jesus christ. my girl NEEDS a win

WARNING FOR ANIMAL DEATH/MUTILATION IN THE TAGS

I think I’ve figured out why it’s the stuff with my cats that gets me the most viscerally upset when it comes to my roommate and I think I need to tell him why that is… we had a talk and he apologized for a lot of stuff but I just feel like I need to explain why I react so intensely to him hating my cats/wanting me to get rid of them

#like there’s the obvious things I’ve said before that ANY pet owner would feel the same about obvious #but like. okay I love cats. I’ve loved cats my WHOLE life #not just cats but animals in general #animals were baby’s first special interest #and I grew up on a farm and I had usually at least 8 pets at a time growing up #that I got money for by doing odd jobs and you know as a child you can spend all your money on your hobbies #and I love animals so I had pets #specifically I always had at least 3-4 cars #*cats #my mom’s first husband hated cats… fucking DESPISED them #and he talked about hating them/getting rid of them all the time #and. well. when I ever did anything to really piss him off #(which you know as a nine year old could be something as simple as breathing too loudly or some shit)#he would kill them #that man killed probably like 20 cats #cuz even after I was old enough to process ‘don’t get more cats bad things will happen to them’#my mom would bring home cats cuz she ALSO loved and wanted cats #even when I would beg her not to because I knew they were going to die #she never cared because in that moment she wanted cats #and obviously this was awful and damaging #and now that I live on my own with my two cats who are my BABIES that I love and cherish #my roommate talking about hating them and wanting them gone….#yeah it’s uh. um. hitting some really specific nerves #obviously I do not think he would EVER EVER do something like that #because you know. he’s not an insane control freak who hates me and animals #it’s still hitting those nerves #and yeah I think I need to tell him that for us to start coming to an understanding #like i get you don’t LOVE my cats you don’t have to #but you can’t talk that way about them… or I’m going to get VERY upset and defensive #kaz rambles

it only lasted like 5 pages but I really prefer dustfinger's scars being disfiguring rather than "drawn on with a pencil"

#meggie being like 'looks like you got attacked by godzilla' then 'i didnt mean that' when shes less pissed at him later #i WOULD have accepted that as part of meggie's coming-of-age and learning she needs to not be a bitch about people's appearances #except that everyone else in the series from then on agrees w her that the scars are barely noticeable #boring!!!!#would have been nice for her to be like 'yeah you healed rough (i mean. as well as expected considering you probably had 6 total stitches)#but im growing up out of practical isolation and learning that facial differences dont play a part in whether someone is good or bad:-)'#WHICH!! is a belief i would expect from someone who loves roald dahl and jekyll n hyde which she does #whatever ms funke does have a problem with equating happy endings with being abled and ~looking normal~#resa getting her voice back bc shes good but cockerall getting a limp bc hes bad and darius losing his stutter for some reason #violante's skin clearing up bc people realize shes a sweetheart but balbulus losing a hand when we realize he sucks #and dustfinger's fkcing scars changing in severity depending on whether hes the good guy or bad guy in the scene #bleh #i also headcanon he has p bad nerve damage aint no way basta cut so deeply he looked freshly gored for months afterward #and still has full use of his facial muscles #meggie's like 'never seen anyone that smiles like he does' girl the bottom half of his face is not connected to the top anymore hes trying #also good explanation for why hes always touching his face if he cant fkcing feel it #dustfinger #inkheart #im gonna try so hard to make more inkheart posts i literally feel grief in my heart seeing that person say #they havent thought about it in years #it's my sole responsibility to fix this #says kenna
