35, Wyler!!!!

35. Future Perfect (Pass the Mic) by Enhypen

"No, just--stop it, let me talk."

Wednesday falls silent as the words leave Tyler's lips, his voice raised along with his hands. She does then, her fire momentarily put out as she stares with a rage filled gaze. They'd been fighting for the better part of thirty minutes and things were coming to a head. To anyone looking in, it may look like they wouldn't make it through the night.

"This is so stupid," Tyler mutters under his breath, bringing his hands up to his face to rub at it. He turns away from Wednesday then, his back to her, and takes a few steps in the opposite direction. "This is so stupid, we shouldn't be fighting like this."

It was true, it was likely pointless to get into a shouting match when they'd been through so much together. Still, Wednesday stands with her fists clenched together, withholding her anger as she waits for him to talk, to get to his point.

"Look, I--" He starts only to interrupt himself with a sigh. "I need you to stop protecting me, Wen. I want- I need to stand on my own feet sometimes. And it's not like I don't appreciate you looking out for me, I do, always, but this... This isn't helping me. You're hurting me, Wen. Please, I'm asking you to just stop."

It's this that takes the wind out of her sails. Wednesday's shoulders fall slowly and then all at once, and her fists turn to open palms as she watches him, waiting for him to turn around, to face her. He does, only a moment later, tears welling in his eyes.

"I'm asking you to stop because if you don't, I'll leave, and... And I don't want to leave." He says with a world-wary sigh. "I wanna be with you. I want to be with you until we're old and gray, but I can't just--I can't keep pretending like this behavior is okay. It's uncomfortable, and it's weird, and--and not in your usually loveably weird sort of way. I need you to let me find my own voice, and be there for me to lean on, but I don't need you defending me at every turn. I'm a big boy, I can protect myself, I promise."

"And what if you can't?" Wednesday asks, her voice cracking with emotions she hadn't felt this extent of in years. "What if there comes a day when you need me, and I'm not there?"

"You're always there, though." He points out, taking a step closer. "You're like, impossible to get rid of. You're like--you're like a cockroach that way."

Wednesday crinkles her nose and says, "I hate that line," which earns a laugh followed by sniffles from Tyler.

"My point," He says, taking yet another step closer, reaching out to take her hand, "Is that I believe that you'll be there for me when I need it. I know that can put my weight on you, and you can put your weight on me. That's how this works, this... Relationship stuff."

"Do you swear by it?" She asks, her usual edge making its way back into her voice.

"I swear that no matter what comes at us, no matter what life puts in our way, I want us to build a future together. It may not be perfect, but it'll be ours. You just have to let me build out my own life first, in whatever shape that takes."

"Okay."

"Okay?"

"Okay."

Okay so this turned out way different tonally than the song that inspired it, but the bolded words are taken from the English translation of the lyrics so as to tie this whole thing in somehow!! Hope you enjoy💕

Okay, I'm sorry, this is not a slight at you in any way shape or form, but I saw the first part of your new... interest during the entr'acte at the theatre so I didn't pay it much mind - usual Tumblr content, you know - but now that I'm seeing it on my laptop in my bedroom I can tell you with the utmost certainty - the guy in bandages with no limbs looks like something that was perfectly manufactured to make me specifically very very upset. Artistically - amazing though.

If it's not too hard - would it be alright for you tag the future posts so I can filter them. Thanks in advance.

sure, of course, I'll tag them! I thought about tagging them, but then dismissed that thought, as I now understand, probably a bit foolishly. I'll tag them all "tw injury", and i think you can filter "mouthwashing" (the name of the game) as well. I'll tag it on all posts in case i miss something :)

7-Fjellsturen completed in 12h20min. Longer than I wanted but shorter than I thought it would take, given the weather conditions. Lots of rain yesterday, and some rain today (and snow and hail; thank you, Ulriken), made for a very muddy trail.

Kilometres hiked: 35

Number of Kvikk Lunsj consumed: 6

Litres of water imbibed: 3

Eggs hatched in Pokémon GO: 27

i am now experiencing the phenomenon where the only time you ever get motivation to write is when you are the furthest physically that you have ever been from a computer, the URGE

Mike and Phil look at Tubbo like “gee Tubbo how come you get to be married to TWO deities”

meanwhile Tubbo is like “gee Mike and Phil how come you guys are actually in love with the deities you’re married to”
