#there's a crack in everything

sam winchester appreciation week | day 7 | happy birthday, sam

if you try to tell me sam doesn't listen to leonard cohen, i'm going to think you don't know him at all

and anthem, well that's a sam song if there ever was one

The birds they sang At the break of day Start again I heard them say Don't dwell on what Has passed away Or what is yet to be

Yeah, the wars They will be fought again The holy dove She will be caught again Bought and sold And bought again The dove is never free

Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in

We asked for signs The signs were sent The birth betrayed The marriage spent Yeah, the widowhood Of every government Signs for all to see

I can't run no more With that lawless crowd While the killers in high places Say their prayers out loud But they've summoned They've summoned up a thundercloud They're gonna hear from me

Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in

You can add up the parts You won't have the sum You can strike up the march There is no drum Every heart Every heart to love will come But like a refugee

Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in That's how the light gets in That's how the light gets in

Since I'm going all Lacanian on you anyway.

Every time I get asked whether I think that Childe is going to die, I think of this quote:

"I am not pessimistic. Nothing is going to happen. For the simple reason that man is a good-for-nothing, not even capable of destroying himself. "

In other words, I hope that our boy is so pathetic that he'll fail everything. He'll fail his heroic death. He'll fail bringing about the apocalypse.

He'll glitch through a corruption arc especially spectacularly and will continue to live his silly life none the wiser.

I just want to say a huge, massive, sincere thank you for 100 kudos on There's a Crack in Everything! It means the world to me that people have read this and loved it. This little two-shot that got out how I was feeling and allowed me an outlet has been appreciated, and I am so thankful for that.

As a thank you, i am currently writing a part three of the after! it may tale a while but just know it's coming.

I love you all <3

on a completely separate note; shizun luo binghe with a disciple shen yuan who fell into the abyss??? *thinks about LBH canonically stealing SQQ's corpse for 5 years* he'd hallucinate i think. like, like visual and audial hallucinations.

Keeps thinking he's seeing SQQ in the corner of his eyes, or wandering between the trees, amongst a group of disciples. Thinks he hears him calling for him, but its just the wind or another disciple.

Gets Xiu Ya reforged but patently fucking refuses to make a sword mound. Because his disciple Is Not Dead :))) There was No Body. He's Not Dead. And If You keep Insisting That He Is, He's Gonna Skewer You :). He's holding onto Xiu Ya so he can return his most favored disciple's sword when he returns. It's on his hip right next to Zheng Yang where it's supposed to be.

Also this motherfucker?? does not sleep btw. He has the image of SQQ, wide eyed and hysterical and standing at the mouth of the abyss burned into his fucking eyelids. Can't use the dreamscape to escape it either because he keeps trying to save him and either he does and it's an incredibly cruel trick to wake up to, or he doesn't and he gets his heart broken in several different pieces again.

There is no convincing this man that Shen Qingqiu is dead. Absolutely nothing at all. He is buried so deep in denial that moles would be jealous of how deep he is. He keeps making tea for two in the bamboo house only to remember that it's just him. SQQ's fans are hiding everywhere, little reminders of his presence. He goes to wake up SQQ on the mornings he sleeps in-- only to find the room empty.

Die in a hole.

Okay okay okay.. but listen. What if Shen Yuan had a harsher System and was forced to convincingly play Shen Qingqiu, making Luo Binghe detest his existence, but when Luo Binghe returns from the abyss to enact his revenge and has Shen Qingqiu on trial at Huan Hua, unfortunately for everyone (and fortunately for us), they drug Shen Qingqiu with truth serum and accidentally spiral Shen Yuan into fanboy rampage of epic proportions about how great Luo Binghe is.

[ID: a digital comic in two panels featuring bungou stray dogs characters. the first shows atsushi banging open a door and shouting, dazai-san! are you oka- the second shows a shot from the anime where chuuya is holding dazai against a wall by his neck. the text reads, homoerotic atmosphere, and four squares with text point out whats happening. they read, casual hand in pocket, chokehold, knife, and lastly um... followed by two sweat drops pointing at chuuya's knee between dazai's legs. a tiny panel in the corner shows atsushi covering his eyes with his tiger paws and blushing as he says, i'm sorry... end ID]

come here. crack open the canon with me for a minute. consider. what if atsushi hadn't listened to everyone telling him dazai would be fine and left to save him only to witness whatever the fuck was going on in that cellar. consider the bit.

Saving Dean Winchester was the one mission Cas never stopped carrying out

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...

mfw i’m only 16 and have single-handedly made several of the most powerful cultivators cry simply by calling them stupid and telling a few “yo mama” jokes without any repercussions from the elders of my own clan who let me do/say whatever the hell i want because they’ve given up on trying to stop me

[blushedfemmes]

question for the femmes and butches who top butches…. where is the butch bottom content hm 🤨 cmon, let’s go. chop chop. write a post about how you want to skewer that boy like a kebab. get a little nasty with it. nipples hard through a white tank top, bent over, jeans pooled around their ankles as you tease them open with a spit-slick hand, your other hand clamped around the back of their neck to remind them they gotta be good and hold still for you. or something like that

[eloquentsisyphianturmoil]

Maedhros’ abdication is so funny because every feanorian was probably salivating over his return like oOOooOoh Nelyo’s back, oh yeah we got our King now you see what he’ll do to you Nolofinwe he’ll really put you in your place huh buddy, good old Nelyo’s not gonna stand for this disrespect he’ll show you the crown belongs with us. And then
