Neil, Todd and Charlie were absolutely like a trio and it was like those trios where 2 are dating and there's a thridweel who is comic relief and also their child

The peach tree in Mama’s backyard Beckoned me home, Abode atop a mountain I’ve never owned, Soil, beneath feet, I’ve barely known.

And it’s within this grand scheme of Her name, “Zhang,” A name, adopting me and etched upon a time, Temples built “then” to bridge tomorrow’s trace,

That I first taste - To belong. To be. To become. To shed the shadow of the nameless. I no longer fear the end. I await it.

- Hathaway Hayes (2024)

I need to be cuddled.

But not the snuggly cuddles while giggling and softly kissing. Or the comfort cuddles while watching a movie or in cold winter nights.

I need the cuddles where our souls touch. The brain's shut out and eyes closed, just the feeling of skin on skin. Face burried in their neck, arms wrapped around their torso, finger clinging in the soft skin, legs interwined with theirs. No clothes, no blanket. Just warmth and skin.

Not just some cuddles. It's a soul-touching, together-melting, self-exposing hug where you hold me together so I don't fall apart.

If I don’t dream or cry anymore, what am I?

[healing-through-the-pain]

Gratitude isn't something I ever really thought about, since I had never really been placed in the kind of situation where it would prove to be just as important as my own life itself.

One may think, "Of course we're full of gratitude..."

We have many beautiful things in this world and a lot of us are very well off- compared to other's that are forced to live very difficult lives.

For example, lot of us have clean water to bathe in and to drink- a variety of lovely food waiting for us when we get home and we have a roof over our heads to keep us safe from terrible weather.

It's not until you are forced to look those own experiences right in the face though- that you really start to look at the word 'gratitude' in a very different kind of way.

I have always been full of gratitude, but I never realized how much more of it I could really fill my life with.

Things could have turned out to be so much worse for you, but somehow you were spared and I will never stop being grateful for that.

We will make it through this and we will do it together, with both love and gratitude filling our bruised and battered hearts.

Healing may be difficult, because there were many things that were lost, but there are also many things that we still have and we need to remember to be grateful for those aspects as well.

So, at the end of this year, I would like to say that going into the new one- I would like to definitely focus more on all of the things I can be thankful for and feel gratitude every single day.

Things could have ended far worse, but you were well protected and that is something for me to feel grateful for- for the rest of my life.

Klein: So, Leonard. I heard you wrote a poem about me

Leonard: ...

Klein, teasingly: Recite it for me, my dear poet.

Leonard with an embarrassed red face: Shut up.

medusa

i am medusa; as a god you should’ve known better leading me to the temple? you- you knew you wouldn’t be punished mortals are flimsy, fragile, easy to break. deities never take any consequences. isn’t this unfair? why should i bear the burden of your bad choice is it so bad? to be naive, innocent of crime, but by default, with you, i am guilty; i have paid my price. i hear hissing everywhere i go i cannot love freely - i know one day you will pay for the crimes you’ve committed, i’ll wait patiently pagan gods always have a downfall. after all, what is a god to a non-believer?

Charile is an ugle crier, when he does its raw and painful to watch. He full on breaks down and the tears are falling, he's nose is running, eyes are red and puffy.

Meeks u can't even tell tbh

Pitts doesn't change much sense his crying is usually light, like just some red (slightly) puffy eyes and like red cheeks.

Neil is somehow pretty when he crys, but it's still sad not anything wild though

Todd is a pretty crier and none can convince me otherwise, he's also heart breaking to watch. Cause he just sits and slightly crys, sniffling and occasionally letting out a quite gasp. And buries his face into things.

Cameron is heart breaking to watch, he's shaking, gasping for air, silently sobbing. Yet also like kinda pretty like he's not an ugly crier.

Knox is an ugly crier and is also loud and will make it ANYONES problems of they willing to listen.
