#uggg i have so much emotion

[multifanlol]

hello! can u do a romantic darcy x reader but marcy had a crush on the reader before her possession? ty!

Hey! And thanks for the request I love Marcy and Darcy-

“So-“

“….”

“Don’t you think King Andries is a total clown sometimes-“

“I don’t care”

“Jeez you don’t have to be so rude darling-“

“Shut up Darcy!”

“Aww, you said my name this time”

“Uggg”

The teen groaned while the host referred to as “Darcy” who tookover the teens best friends body continue to annoy them, ever since they were captured by the robots King Andrias sent they were originally just sent to the dungeon with “Darcy” coming every now and then to pratically torment them about how they can’t leave.

But later on “Darcy” began to visit more frequently and frequently and even let you have a “spare room” which was just Marcys room when she lived there although you didn’t mind, you were confused though, I mean Darcy imprisoned you sure you might of felt something towards them sometimes…..but that’s only because you have some hope Marcy’s in there…..is what you tell yourself

In truth Darcy began to have taken a liking to you, at first Darcy thought it was just Marcy’s feelings towards you for some reason affecting her, but the more Darcy began to visit you intending to annoy you, Darcy began to feel some strong emotions…..no they weren’t hate nor disgust…..they were weirdly positive, she tried to focus her mind off other stuff but they felt insanely strong and annoying…..therefore after all this thinking she’s trying to win you over

“You know…..”

You groaned banging your head in frustration

“What now….”

“Marcy took a liking to you….now i can see why”

You could already sense Darcy’s smirk but that didn’t bother you as you nearly choked on air which caused Darcy to laugh hysterically

“Just shut up i know your…..your lying!”

“Heh….Please sweetie your embarrassing yourself…!”

She said wiping a fake tear from her eyes laughing at how flustered you were as you clearly liked your best friend

“Y-You don’t know what your talking about, your just trying to mess with me and i can see it, just leave me alone….”

Darcy then turned into a fit of giggling

“Please I’ve told you a million times dear, Marcy’s in here, i can tell she liked you…..and it’s clearly mutual”

You puffed your cheeks and tried to control them by glaring at her which made it look worser which caused the psycho maniac to laugh even harder

“You know since Marcy clearly isn’t coming back, you know I’m basically her-“

“Your not Marcy, Darcy”

“I know you’ll change your mind some day!~”

“….”

“You know we could try to get along at least-“

“You imprisoned me”

“It’s all a bad days work, really would you rather fight for that earth planet?-“

“Yeah, i would! My family and friends are there!”

“…..”

“Well would rescuing them and destroying the rest of the humans make you better-“

“I “appreciate” the offer but there’s others that live there too that while i don’t know them, there are good people that live there-“

“Fine fine jeez….you don’t have to get all hero and mighty n/n!”

You stopped at what she just said the nickname fluttered your heart always because a specific clumsy nerd usually called you that

Few months before Amphibia…..

“Hey n/n!”

“Hey Mar mar!”

“Wanna go to the store to help me look for a gift for Anne, we can also go to that game store and get that game you wanted-“

“Sure Marc, what’s wrong?”

“My parents said they need me home….I’m sure it’s nothing I’ll catch up with you later!”

“It’s fine, I’ll start looking”

Why did she have a bad feeling about this

You ended up meeting up with Anne and Sasha and ended up getting a text from Marcy that she found a gift for Anne

“Why didn’t she tell me….”

I mean you weren’t upset just confused as it felt odd she could of told you whatever it was with her parents was done but it isn’t a big deal

When you met up with Marcy you noticed a different vibe she gave off…..like she was hiding something, you tried not to think much of it as you thought you were maybe being paranoid

“So you got this box…?”

“Trust me Sash, it probably looks cooler on the inside!”

“Maybe Anne should open it since it’s her birthday”

“Alright i will”

As Anne was about to open you felt uneasy especially looking at how overly nervous or excited Marcy looked you couldn’t really read it like you normally could

Yeah it definitely has something to do with her parent-

And just like that a magical portal pushed you all into it

You screamed from the fall and looked around which appeared to be in the middle of a road

“Huh-“

You screamed at all the random huge creatures that nearly hit you with other creatures riding them

End of flashback (Yes I’m aware the other bits were unnecessary-)

You sighed remembering that night where Sasha betrayed you all, and especially King Andrias outing Marcy about getting you all stranded in Amphibia especially when revealed about her parents moving and which stopped Darcy’s laughing as they stared at you sighing

“Aw you can’t seriously be upset at my teasing-“

When you were still staring at the ground glumly it made her feel those strong emotions again…..ugh

Instead they were more of sympathy towards you she really didn’t know how to process that, whenever you were sad like this which was rare she’d usually tease with her “wonderful” flirting and you’d stop here it felt more personal…..they were bad at this

You ended up feeling an awkward arm around your shoulder

“Hey, wipe that annoying frown off your face it’s almost as annoying as King Andrias being gloomy all the time….”

“….”

Darcy then awkwardly moves her arm attempting to think of something else

“Why do you think Marcy went behind me and the girls backs at this crazy plan”

It felt weird telling Darcy this especially since Darcy was technically Marcy but you knew with how much they said it themselves Marcy was in there but at the moment it was technically not your Marcy talking

“What….”

“I just wanna know why she did, if she’s still in there what do you think….”

Darcy shifted awkwardly in a different position she didn’t really know what to do….although you being upset made them feel a certain thing that irritated them, not in the way you’d think though….

“Well, maybe Marcy thought you wouldn’t understand her-“

“Really?”

They felt like they spoke too soon until they noticed you actually considering it

“I mean, maybe she just cared about you or some stupid Marcy thing like that…so she didn’t wanna lose you”

“I mean, it’d make sense but being in this world just feels too much…”

“….I mean while I’m not Marcy in the way you’d want i know she’d probably apologise right now or something stupid like that-“

Darcy stopped when all of a sudden they felt two arms wrap around them which quickly stopped

She didn’t know what it was and couldn’t tell whether she liked it or not

“That didn’t happen”

“Yeah-“

I guess in the end of the day whoever imprisons you, go for it 😍/j

And yeah that’s it sorry it’s short i didn’t have much ideas for this

Cast Away (2000)

A FedEx executive undergoes a physical and emotional transformation after crash landing on a deserted island.

Warning: Review may contain spoilers. Read at your own risk.

JayBell: There are so many things about this movie that I love. The first part of the movie shows how much Tom Hanks' character is on the go go go. He's all about efficiency and productivity. Everything is on a schedule, even his personal life. At the same time, he's also a bit of a romantic.

It takes a while to build up to the big crash, but it's great for character building and raising the anticipation. The plane crash scene has pretty good special effects, even by today's standards.

I'm a big fan of survival movies, so I do love watching Tom Hanks' character make mistakes, learn, face setbacks, overcome obstacles. Having Wilson as a way for his character to bond with another "person" is so smart. Although it is strange to be sad about a man's relationship with a volleyball, it's done so well. You really feel like Wilson is the only thing keeping his character sane.

Usually with movies like this, it ends when they get "rescued." I like that they show some of his character's adjustment back into society. (the seafood dinner with food carelessly leftover, the lighter, the too soft mattress, him guzzling water from a bottle).

I only have a few gripes about this movie. One, why are there zero animals or bugs on the island? Yes, there are fish. But nothing else at all? Even a small scene of him killing a bug or chasing off an animal would be cool.

And second, I do think his girlfriend moves on a bit too fast, especially without the closure of his recovered body. If you do some of the math, she basically "grieves" for like 6 months or so, and some of those months were spent still trying to find him. I agree that they shouldn't get back together in the end, but I my brain couldn't help but do the math at the same time.

But I do feel like the ending fits. Now, Tom Hanks' character isn't on a schedule, he doesn't have a plan, which is so different from how he treated life in the beginning of the movie. And I like how the angel artist lady is included throughout the movie before finally appearing at the end, as if it was "meant to be."

P.S. RIP Wilson

P.P.S. I couldn't help but notice as he drives in the final scenes of the movie, he has a brand new Wilson. What on earth is he planning to do? Create a new Wilson with a face and talk to it and carry it around in society? Use it for volleyball? Doesn't that seem disrespectful? idk

Rating: 7.5/10 cats 🐈

Anzie: As this is my second time writing this review bc obviously the universe hates me and disagrees with my opinion on this ammmazing movie, this will be scathing. I hated it I don’t even wanna be nice anymore. I thought it was funny how Tom Hanks was obsessed with time and then forced to be on an island where time really is an illusion. I like the start when he’s still running fedex (totally thought he was ups but whatever) and the plane crash was really well done for the time and then when he’s on the island I start getting peeved. Has this mannnnn ever seen Naked and Afraid. Where’s the fire- it took him so long. He should’ve been a Boy Scout. Uggg. And the knocking his own tooth out. I’m triggered. And loosing Wilson. Lame. He so could got him. This is like Jack and Rose all over again.

And now my reallllll problem. I will not ever be able to watch Helen Hunt again. Okkk. So this guy that gives you a ring the last time you saw him on Christmas right as he’s boarding a plane that will crash- is stuck on an island for 4 years. Ok - Her kid is 2 years old - it takes 9 months to make a baby- ok so we’re already back in time where there’s 1 year and 2 months when she could’ve been hung up over him- soooo in the year following his disappearance- say she waited a month or two for them to find him- okkk we’re at a year grieved another 2 months- quick but okkkkkk met his Root Canal Dentist- which wowwwww- had a wonderful romance so in like 8/10 months after he was missing- I’m sooo sorry she got over him being missing grieved and dated and married this guy would is literally her fiancé nemesis and had a kid wayyyyy to quick. I mean I do t think I ever did anything so quick in my life everrrr. And I still can’t look at Chris Noth. I’m done. For my sanity I have to be. None of the math makes sense to read but you get it. After 2 months??? I think I’ve been dedicated to listening to a song on repeat longer than that.

I am glad he had his little friend to come back to- and I did like the whole angel wings artist lady plot but that veers to unhealthy kinnnnnda???

Rating: I can’t- it had 4/10- but for my mental health now it’s a 2/10 Crabs 🦀

Absolutely crying about how useless the internet is now a days ;_; 

I started reading punpun (like 100 years too late I know) and why is there literally no place for like spoiler free dicussions anymore. I just want to chat about v1+2 without spoilers and enjoy my slow read through of it (b/c I am slow at reading everything now a days woops).

Please if anyone would like to chat about punpun but now spoil things please talk to me. 

[Goodnigth Punpun - V1 + V2 English Omibus Spoilers Bellow]

I really like it so far, and I’ve always wanted to read it but it. I know minimal things about it but it being a depressing coming of age / life line story I always wanted to wait until I felt like I was in an place where I feel ready to read it. And I am glad I did b/c it’s real intense, but also uggg it really is so good, I think it captures how depressing the world is so well. And the monologues are so raw. 

Also I really love yuichi’s character, and I can just tell this man is set up for failure but I want him to learn and grow from his mistakes so bad. He seems like a nice man who is just unable to grow from his experiences and it’s so depressing. In a weird way I find myself connecting to him more than anyone else in the story. Not that I share experiences/are the same age as him. But I feel like that lonely unsure of what to do with your life afraid to over commit to anything before you ‘ruin’ things for good (for example like punpun’s parents may feel they have)... Extremely relatable for the young adult in me.

I don’t really connect to punpu yet tbh, I’ve only seen him through elementary and middle school so far. I really do like the potrayal of his just fear of himself and fear of loneliness. And also his lack of good role models and subsequent view of the the world because of it. It’s really so sad all of it lmao. I guess that’s the point of the book. But it’s really just a lot of bad circumstances with good stuff mixed in but you know if people don’t have the right love and support in the end what can you do. 

Especially with volume one, all PWC stuff was kind of wild. I feel like it’s really a fine line between children just being children and also the real danger and skewed understanding of everything they get from exploration of things they might not be ready or might be scared by... Like children will always be curious about this stuff... I mean everyone is, but these kids got into some deep shit because of some of the things they saw and many of them will come out with trully formitive expeirences for the worse. I think they will all kind of be fucked up because of this after all... 

Anyways I kind of just want all of the adults int this to try a little bit harder and be a little bit better people. Because it just feels like they all have it in them if they just tried a bit more... For punpun’s and aiko’s sake. But I know it wont be like that. And since punpun and aiko kids they will not be able to break any trauma they have yet, so it continues to fester within them as they grow. Maybe they will in the future, but also maybe they won’t. And that’s just sad. Life really is about just observing those aroudn you and either trying to become a better person for whatever reason or failing to do so. 

Also in v2 there’s this whole part about punpun thinking he’s this terrible vile thing for wanting yaguchi to loose, and when he does he feels sick about it. And it’s just very relatable, the feeling of like being the worst person in the whole work when you’re 13 years old and feel any emotion what so ever. Again it’s the whole tthese are all normal things for children but without any proper guidance or safe space to explore/understand these things then it all just consumes and makes them feel awful. Honestly amazing of this Inio Asano dude for capturing how a depressed child thinks/feels/acts/views the world. 

Anyways my take away from these two volumes is very much just, how much I wish everyone was just a bit of a better person. Then none of this would have happened and no one would be sad. But the world’s not like this at all.

I feel so sad that supernatural is ending soon, but at the same time I feel so proud of what all it has accomplished so far.

Can I get some headcanons of Yandere Jason Todd reacting to someone trying to attack pregnant reader (fluff please)

Note: English is not my language, so I hope you will be understanding of any flaws you find.

I must said someone must be gratefull reader is pregnant because otherwise he would have put the material to repaint the place of the attack. How dare they even think of trying?

Because with his chosen one pregnant, of couse Jason would have done his homeworks and knows that his poor one has already had too much that day.

He can deal with the-dead-who-doesn't-know-he's later. With time and care, as he has to take care of his one now.

If he didn't totally prevent the attack from happening before because was stalking his chosen one (pretending to give her some freedom)

Although, also... could it have been planned by him??? There sir, how many possibilities. That would ensure that his chosen one stayed closer than ever in such a delicate time.

Ahem, yes, fluff... *sweats*

Like I said, Jason's priority is you. Then your baby. Then the walking corpse.

At the same time that he's hugging you to comfort you, he's taking note of all your vital signs and searching for wounds. The guy is able to measure your blood pressure without devices (because of the risk of preeclampsia), he isn't going to lose his darling for nothing.

If you start to hyperventilate, he would steal kisses and kisses savoring your tears and reminding you "you are with me, we're together, you can cry dear, everything is fine now" until you have no choice but to regain your breathing rhythm because that's him playing at being your paper bag.

Princess trip to your house, you want it or not, you can walk or not.

At this point he will not say anything, partly because he's going crazy inside, partly because he would rather you cry a little than swallow your emotions.

He doesn't want to stop touching you, he will say that it's so you know that he's here and nothing is going to happen to you again. That is also the comfort to himself.

You will come home, you both will take together a bath or shower, the clothes you personally were wearing will disappear forever, so do not invoke bad memories, them both will sit on the bed/sofa, and he will read you some poems or make sarcastic comments on some of the latest books that any of you have read, reciting paragraphs, trying to distract yourself.

How come you were alone when pregnant? You wont go out again for the remainder of pregnancy and pray that it wont be for the remainder of your life.

Uggg I sucks at this

Part Two of SoD Thoughts lets GO-

Spoilers below.

Credence backstory was, decent. Honestly there are several theories about his family that ngl I feel like would have been more interesting but him being Aberforths son works the way they build up the story really well. And it makes your heart hurt knowing Credence is actively getting worse.

Speaking of Credence UGGG he has me so conflicted. I don't like the way he treats Queenie but he is actively dying at the same time. AND he goes against Grindelwald at the end AND HIS FAMILY SAVES HIM.

I cannot express how much I love the three way spell with the Dumbledore bros and Grindy GOT me when it broke the bloodpact. That was a HIGHLIGHT of the film for me.

I know I mentioned it in the last one but I love Bunty climax in the film, her coming out from the crowd and giving Newt the case with the living Quillin. It was SO good for me as someone who adores Bunty. Go girl!

SANTOS. I LOVE IT THAT SHE GETS ELECTED. And she saves Jacobs from the spell Grindy threw at him, we adore her for real.

In general the emotions and feeling of a team this movie gave appealed to me SO much. Dumbledores team is all so supportive and helpful to one another because they all genuinely care and want to be successful and it's AMAZING.

Also, Jacob and Theseus wanting having issue with Grindelwald being pardoned makes absolute sense. They know what he did and to see him get off scot free understandably infuriates him.

Over all I love the talk about how they had to get around Grindys foresight. Confusion as a plan really is the only option when fighting someone like that so the confusion and multiple overlapping plans makes sense.

Hello there! I saw and LOVED your Jedi Night art, it destroyed me emotionally, good job!!

Can I ask who your favorite SWR character was? And your favorite episodes? I get really excited to meet new people who love SWR, don't mind me!

Ok so first off, I LOVE to talk nerd, and second, can I be your best friend? You seem so nice🥺

So…. Question one:

Favorite Star Wars character?

Uggg that’s painful. I’ll divide it up

Movie trilogys:

So in the prequels I’d say obi wan.

The original definitely Darth Vader.

Sequels, Poe dameron.

Singles:

I love all the characters in rogue one, and I’m not gonna try to dig thru that mess 😅

And in Han Solo, Donald Glover played his part as Lando incredibly well, so probably him.

Shows:

Clone wars

So this was SUCH a good, and in depth show. It really showed the characters in a light that the movies could not.

Anakin was shown to do the wrong things for the right reasons. (The ends justify the means sorta stuff) and his fall from the light which was tragic, but KiNdA understandable? I really liked his character arc, even though it destroyed me🥲

Now Ashoka, is a lean, mean, girl power, fighting machine. Great character arc as well. (You wanna know what? Just assume that applies to all the characters I bring up) what I really like about her, is kinda finding herself. She was kept in the jedi order, and it was her whole life. Something that would be painful to walk away from. She kinda struggled through out the whole show with finding her balance. It’s important to apply that to our own situation I guess?

Obi wan, now I’m gonna have to keep my self from going on too long about him. Love him. I think he is what the Jedi all ought to be. He wasn’t so emotional stuffed, but he had a balance of emotions. Kinda like like control your emotions, lest they control you. (Looking at you Anakin) he went through his life, which was an incredible tragic one, with his head heals high. He could have easily turned to the dark side. His master died, Satine died, the Jedi order fell along with his friends. His brother turned against him, and died by his hand. That’s a rollercoaster life right there. And when faced with the question, he said that it takes strength to resist the dark side, which makes him stronger than those who don’t. That’s an important life lesson lol.

And there’s Rex. Simply put, he’s a good ol’ boi

Bad batch

I feel like this show hasn’t developed enough for me to say, but I do like echo, and wrecker a lot 😌

Mandalorian

For the mandalorian, obviously mando. He’s a great father, and ✨not✨ lone wolf. He Took care of his kid, and gave him up when he didn’t want to. Because that’s what he thought was best.

Rebels

Now rebels is a much better show that I was expecting. I love the family dynamic, it really captured that aspect well. 

Ezra. He was an amusing bratty child in the first season, and I love him. At times I still wanted to smack him…. but I like the fact that he was faced many opportunities to turn bad, and didn’t. He dabbled a little perhaps, but he’s the type of person who has to try things out for himself, And learn lessons the hard way. As he got older he really matured, and he went from a small bean to a big bean.

Of course, I love Kanan. (I love all space dads. And adoptive dads) he was a beautiful and wonderful human being. And I’m so mad that Dave killed him off 😤😤 anyway, I like the fact that he was the first to admit that he didn’t know he was doing. Instead of acting like he was just teaching Ezra, he said they were both learning from each other.

Thrawn… for reasons

Favorite episodes, and arcs?

Rebels

I loved the bit, with the Sith temple. Ashoka finally meeting Vader, love it. So much drama. Introduction to maul, and just total legitness.

And the ending. As depressing as it was, seeing the conclusion it really makes me look forward to the Ashoka show. Although will be like almost 30, And he’d’ve missed out on so much😭

Clone wars

Oh there’s so many good ones. I love the episodes focusing on Ventress. It was an unexpected journey, and darth maul was somewhat involved as well.

Obviously Umbara. This one was exceedingly painful, but it really got the point across about the injustice and individuality of the clones. I know casual Star Wars watchers tend to skim over this a bit. super powerful.

The Mortis arc, was super epic, with great visuals, symbolism. And when Anakin found out he would become Vader I almost died

While I’m talking about clones, The order arc with the inhibitor chips was stupid good. And sad as well. (I apparently really like the emotionally devastating bits and pieces)

The one with Yodas trials was a really good one. I didn’t pay good attention the first time around. Just so u know yoda has never been one of my favorite characters. But I liked him a little better after this arc. It shows us his deepest fears, and it was really nice seeing so much foreshadowing.

Asoka leaving the order was super emotional and help put things in motion

And of course the siege mandalore. The final conclusion to the clone wars, in the beginning of the empire.

Anyways sorry for the long post, I’m sure this isn’t what you asked for but what can I say 🤷‍♀️ my life’s been hijacked by Star Wars. Dave this is your fault🔫

[captainshazamerica]

Dude dude dude crane dancing weirdly and laughing like a maniac to himself is such rogues vibes I love it so much 😅 I want all the gc and cc rogues to hang out in a big warehouse somehere like this hahaa

I'm so confused about jason being buried there's no way bruce buried an empty coffin I feel like bruce 100% would have looked at jasons body in the coffin just to like cement the grief and physiologically torture himself tbh, Bruce couldn't have buried an empty coffin so ahh maybe he did but like how would he not have known it was empty!? Honestly I was not expecting the lazarus pit until I saw the episode name and I dunno what comic it's from but I'm pretty sure there's one where jason did die was buried and woke up in the coffin alive for like no reason no pit needed, I dunno I just like the version of him actually being buried and coming back to life just for some pure unknown mystery reason or maybe I just made that up in my head I have no clue lol

Crane sent one sad upset little kid messed up on anti fear toxin to The Joker! BOY WHAT Crane knew he was gonna get killed so did crane know that bringing him back to life and drugging him would allow him some level of control over jason, it seems like crane is masterminding the entire thing and j is just basically his pet/henchman, also in the future when he's hopefully off the anti-fear toxin is he still gonna be not quite himself cuz of the effects of the pit?

The phone to call to hank I really want jason to have meant that like maybe he hadn't dosed up on toxin yet and he was able to actually feel and sought out hank to help him but then took the toxin after the call and just did a 180 and decided to do that bomb thing instead or was that all cranes idea

Bruce telling him he's not robin anymore in an attempt to save him from the dangers of Gotham is literally what gets him killed, poor Bruce, I NEED a scene of bruce and jason together again or at least just Bruces reaction to the fact that jason is still alive BRUCE CALLING HIM SON 😢 and technically jason admitted to seeing him as his dad in the word association thing with doc thompkins

THE DREAM THING WITH DONNA I freaking LOVED that (she looked so cool) but it was like he was being warned by the universe/weird dcu magic or maybe even donna herself warning him about his future as redhood to try to stop all that from happening to him because those dreams were happening before crane/joker killing him, I need to rewatch that, THAT IS SO COOL! was he able to see the redhood suit in his dream cuz if he did maybe that's why he chose the suit cuz he seen it in a dream and was afraid of it and now he's all about not being afraid so that's why he chose that as his suit, I'm assuming his suit choice was his idea and crane didn't plan the outfit for him 😅

BRO CRANE DANCING LIKE THAT WAS EVERYTHING HOLY CRAP. LIKE THATS SO FREAKING IN CHARACTER (almost Fanon tbh xD). That made Scarecrow loving butt so happy omg xD Dc is finally giving people what they want!!! Lmao, can you even imagine the chaos of the gotham and CC rogues all together like that omg, someone needs to make art or fic of that man xD

Oh yeah, I guess that is the one thing they didnt address. Idk, this Bruce was disassociating from Jason dying so much that Im not sure he would look in the coffin cause that would be acknowledging the truth which he was in clear denial in until he snapped and killed the joker. But yeah, that would have been cool. Yeah that is the comics version, the explanation was superman messing with the universe or some typical dc crap like that xD They went with the animated movie version, well, closer to that version, in terms of the Lazarus pit bringing him back. I like how like a month ago we were talking about how we doubted they were gonna use the Pit but look at that they did!

I freaking KNEW Crane was the mastermind behind most of it(and used Jason's already messed up self and emotions ), like from that first episode when he took the gas I was like I BET THAT IS ANTI FEAR TOXIN! xD But i loooveee how they are giving us a manipulative af Crane, you rarely see that in media!

Oooh yes the phone call, I do wish they had like def confirmed that it was Jason off the gas, which like i think they implied but i want confirmation lol. But yeah, I am def thinking he was off his drugs when he first made that call cause his demeanor during the 2nd call was a lot more like when he is on the gas.

THE BRUCE AND JASON SCENES KILLED ME OH MY GOSHHHHHH. AND WE FINALLY GOT A MEDIA VERSION OF BRUCE CALLING JASON HIS SON! IM LIKE SOBBING! THATS ALL WE EVER FREAKING WANTED! and YASS jason calling bruce his dad in the word association omg, I didn’t think they were actually gonna have him say it. and then they have the AUDACITY to show him getting better ONLY TO DESTROY IT UGGG.

Oooh yeah, that dream thing with donna was interesting, I wonder if they are gonna like fully explain it or leave it vague.

Curran just blew it OUT OF THE PARK THOOOOO

“The Tiger and the Wren”

Ikemen Sengoku Shingen/OC 18+

Excerpt from Chapter 6 “Pain and Warmth”

Fluff

___

“Rough mission?” Sasuke eyed the bruise on Ren’s cheekbone, another was visible through her kimono collar, her gait was stiff as she walked down the hall. It had been a few weeks since they’d seen each other.

“I’ve had better.” She gave him a half-grin and a wink. “How goes your training under Kenshin?”

“I’m managing to avoid him more regularly, it helps that these cold months keep people indoors.” He lifted the hem of his top. “Look, for the first time in my scientific lifestyle, I have abs!”

Ren laughed, giving him a half hug as they walked down the hall, he noticed her bandaged hand and squinted at her.

“I’m fine. Honestly, my mark had two extremely well-trained shinobi in his employ. I took my lumps, but gave as good as I got.” She gave him a quick reassuring kiss on the cheek, then turned the corner.

 Speaking of abs…

Her face pressed into the heated flesh of Shingen’s bare chest, the edge of his kimono caressed her cheek, unconsciously she inhaled deeply. Ren hadn’t realized how much she had missed the sweet musk of his scent. Coming to her senses, she stumbled backward, Shingen caught her in his long arms holding her against him until she had regained her balance. She felt the heat rise to her cheeks. His hands caressed warmly down her back.

“My Goddess, if you are favoring mere mortals with kisses from your divine lips today, I’ll have the next one.” Holy cats! His voice was like buttered caramel, she gazed upward, his mirth filled grey eyes smoldered, her knees went weak.

 Dammit, girl pull yourself together!

“My Lord, I apologize.” She started to bow, her eyes shifting away from his burning gaze to the ground. Her heart threatened to beat its way out of her chest.

“Unnecessary, “ Shingen cupped her chin, lifting her gaze back to his. A thumb traced the edge of her bruise with concern, then continued to teasingly brush over her lower lip. “You are, as always, a pleasure to bump into Ren.” The tiger glinted in his eyes at the double entendre. He took her hand, playfully kissing the tips of her fingers. Her face burned red. With a smile, he nodded in greeting to Sasuke and continued on down the hall.

Ren gasped.

“Woah,” Sasuke’s lip twitched in a grin “I knew there was some unresolved sexual tension between you two, but I feel like I need a cold shower after that exchange. Is he always so-“

“Every damn time.”

“And you haven’t-“

“No.” Ren swallowed audibly. Sasuke peered at her flushed face then glanced down the hall.

“Ren…I’m straight, and I’d hit that, what are you waiting for? He’s obviously into you.”

She sighed, shaking herself off. “He’s my boss.”

“I don’t think that’s an issue for him.” Ren smacked her friend’s shoulder.

“Uggg, I need a soak. My body is one big bruise. I’ll catch up to you later, ok?”

Sasuke gave her a lip twitch smile and sauntered off down the hall.

It was rare Ren used the onsen as she was one of the few females at the castle with leave to make use of it. It was cold, but still, the light dusting of snow melted far before the edge of the water. Ren had tied a small tag to a scarf at the entrance, announcing the hot spring was in use by her then dropped her towel near the edge, sinking her naked bruised body into the steaming medicinal waters.

It had been a long time since she had taken a beating like that, and it was a sharp reminder to keep her skills honed. She had been sent to Oshu to ferret out some information, on her way out, she encountered two extremely well-trained Shinobi who appeared to be brothers. She was happy she escaped with her skin intact if varying shades of purple. At least she gave as good as she got, the dark-haired one had stayed at range, but the flirty blonde he called “Gen” was definitely hurting as much as she was. She turned to face the edge of the pool, laying her bruised cheek against the cool stone. Everything just ached, it was probably for the best she didn’t have a mirror. At least the wound on her hand was shallow, it was the only cut she took. She let her mind drift in the rising steam of the onsen, her eyes sliding closed.

Familiar steps came close, her eyes snapped back open.

“Hello Ren, mind if I join you? Sasuke said you were going for a soak and would like some company.”

 Shingen…damn, you Sasuke. You are going to wish Kenshin had killed you.

She flitted her eyes to the side, her breasts were pressed to the wall, her back faced him.

“I left a scarf indicating I was using the onsen.”

“I saw,” He chuckled. “Was it not an invitation?”

She turned a little more to look at him. Shingen stood on the other side of the natural pool, wearing only a small towel around his narrow hips. Her eyes traveled upward slowly, every line of his body was perfectly sculpted from his muscled abdomen to his smooth broad chest to shoulders so vast she felt like she’d swoon. Ren had never seen a more magnificent specimen of a male. If he were from her time, he would be a model and not one that needed the aid of photoshop. She let her eyes wander appreciatively back downward. He smiled, dropping the towel to slide into the steaming water.

 Yes, …everything was perfect. Whelp, there’s more fuel for that fantasy…

Ren averted her eyes, her face glowing red. “Just stay to your side.”

Him

He saw the bruises on her face from the last mission and winced internally. He knew the twins she ran up against. That she survived, was a testament to her skill. When Sasuke mentioned to him she was going to soak, Shingen picked up a container of salve to give her to help with the bruising. Seeing her in the onsen, he was sorry he sent her. The white flesh of her back was mottled in all shades of pain like she had either taken a beating or fallen hard. He realized by the way she covered herself, she was unused to casual nudity.

“I’m sorry I sent you.” His voice was sincere, he saw her eyes flash in surprise.

“Was the information I retrieved not what you desired?”

“It wasn’t worth the damage to your pearlescent skin, my angel. Are you ok? I brought you some salve to help with the pain and bruising.”

“Thank you, my Lord. That is very thoughtful of you.” To his surprise, she turned to face him, sinking down into the water. Her arms crossed over her bare chest. An angry blackened bruise striped across her shoulder to her collarbone on the left side, it looks like someone struck her there then it bounced off catching her cheek.

“Just Shingen, please.” He requested softly, “Would you tell me what happened?”

“I got cocky.” A self-deprecating laugh slipped from her lips. “I haven’t run up against anyone else here to match my skills, the other shinobi I’ve run into were sloppy or lacking in discipline, these two weren’t.”

Shingen listened quietly, watching the emotions play freely across her face. She was different today, unguarded. Possibly from fatigue. He found it very human of her, alluring, different than the self-assured cold demeanor she usually projected.

“I had just left the castle with the intel when the dark-haired shinobi started flinging kunai at me, he stayed at range the entire time. I never had a chance to bring out my bow because the blonde immediately closed at melee. We were evenly matched and disarmed each other as soon as he closed. The fight turned into unarmed combat with his brother flinging missiles at me. Thank goodness I was faster, he only managed a graze on my hand.” She gave a small shrug, wincing imperceivably at the roll of her shoulders. He found himself wanting to reach out to her to comfort her but knew she wouldn’t allow it in her current state of undress.

“The dark-haired man called him “Gen”. We beat on each other for some time, I gave as good as I got. I managed to knock him out, and I ran for it.” She paused and then added, “I would prefer not to be sent there again without backup.”

“Understood, again, I apologize for putting you in that position. I did not know they would both be present.”

Ren raised an eyebrow. “But you were aware at least one would be present? A warning would have been nice.”

“My goddess, I knew you could handle it, I have faith in you.”

She splashed him, “Ass.”

Shingen blinked at the unexpected sass then gave her a wolfish grin.

“Next time, warn me.” She smiled, it was radiant, and he felt his heart thump loud against his ribs.

“I promise.” He moved forward to sit by her and saw her eyes widen in panic. Shingen raised his hands.

“Just, keep to your side, mixed bathing isn’t really done by non-couples where I’m from.”

“We could change that.” Her eyes lit warily at his grin. “My angel, I would love to couple with you. "

“Pfffft!” Her laughter made him smile. “You and your silver tongue, do you ever stop flirting?”

“If you desired me to, I would stop. But I don’t think you do.”

“Guilty.” She rolled her eyes, then turned back around, giving him a view of her back to where the water lapped at her narrow waist. Another bruise started there and wrapped down under the water. His lips briefly tightened at the amount of pain she must be in.

“Ren, why don’t we go back to your room and I’ll help you with the salve? I use it when I’m injured. It will actually help more than the heat of the springs.”

She nodded, “would you close your eyes?”

“Hmmm?” He tilted his head.

“So, I can get out, would you please close your eyes?” The tips of her ears were scarlet, it had nothing to do with the heat of the springs. He smiled at how adorable she was.

“My eyes are closed.” He heard her leave the water, imagined it running off her flesh, pooling around her. Soft fabric rustled as she wrapped herself in the full towel.

“I’ll be in my room, thank you.”

Shingen waited until he could no longer hear her footsteps, then opening his eyes, he climbed out of the springs. He picked up the jar of salve and went to retrieve his kimono. He could have just given it to her, but the damage was so extreme she would never be able to reach all of it on her own.

 Tell yourself that old man.

This was not just an excuse to touch her, he wanted to help her.

 mmmhmmmm

He slid on his kimono…maybe he should just stop by and give her the salve, he could send a maid by to help her apply it. Yes, that is what he should do. He started walking toward her room with decisive strides.

He tapped on the door.

“Ren, it’s Shingen.”

“Come in.”

His breath hitched as he entered the room, and all thoughts of simply handing her the salve disappeared like smoke. She kneeled on her futon, her bare back to him. Her sleeping kimono was belted around her waist, but she had slid both arms out and merely held the cloth up to her chest. He had just seen her fully naked in the onsen, and yet this was far more intimate. He took a deep breath steeling himself. He was here to help her.

“I appreciate you helping me. I won’t lie, I’m very sore. It’s been a long time since I’ve been hurt this badly.” Her soft voice was hesitantly vulnerable.

Shingen kneeled behind her scooping some of the salve from the jar, he warmed it in his hands before spreading it gently onto her purpled flesh. Her skin was softer than he had imagined. He leaned in, rubbing the salve into the wound on her shoulder then moving lower down her back. His hands were gentle, reverent on her. The fact she was even letting him touch her so intimately surprised him.

“I saw one lower, near your waist?”

“Hmmm, yes, he hit me in the hip with a log.” She fidgeted a bit then opened the front of her kimono, dropping the fabric to display her purpled hip. He moved his hands over it, and she sighed in pleasure.

A smile tugged at his lips. He leaned in closer, letting his natural warmth roll over her. His hands continued to rub salve into her abused skin, but at this point, it was more of an excuse to touch her.

He slid both hands down her back, Ren let out a rumbling purr that ended in a moan. Then covered her mouth in embarrassment, her skin flushing to red.

“It appears I have discovered a tigress.” Shingen let his lips graze the nape of her neck, he couldn’t resist. The spice scent of her flesh was enticing. She turned her head toward him, snowy lashes fluttering to her cheeks.

“It just felt really good.” She admitted. The blush on her cheeks was beyond charming. He slid an arm around her cupping her chin.

“Let me see that cheek.” He caressed some salve over the bruise on her face. Her violet eyes caught his, he paused. There was desire in the depths of her eyes. She leaned back into his chest. He brought both arms around her in a warm embrace. His lips nuzzled into the back of her neck. He nipped her gently, suckling on tender flesh. Her breath came in short hot pants.

“Shingen, we shouldn’t.”

He grinned against her neck.

“You don’t want me to hold you?” he asked softly.

“I do, it feels nice.”

“Do you want me to kiss you?” his lips trailed against softly on her neck, nibbling at the uninjured flesh.

“I’m too hurt to make this enjoyable.”

He chuckled against her cheek. “I am enjoying you.”

She let out a frustrated little snort, he grinned wider. “You are adorable.” Shingen ruffled her short hair. “How could I not enjoy being close to you?”

She rolled her eyes. “Alright, I thank you for your help, I can get the ones in the front.”

“Or you could allow me to?”

Her

His hands, she was melting into the warmth of them. Everywhere he touched her, it tingled. Ren told herself it was just the medicinal salve, but her heart beating so fast in her chest told a different story. Her body still hurt, but now a different kind of ache was overlaying that. It was not a small effort to lean away from him, sliding her arms back into the sleeves of her kimono. She turned slightly with a wince and brushed her lips softly against his cheek.

“I really appreciate it thank you, I should get some rest.” She tried not to look him in the eye, Ren knew she’d lose her resolve if she did. It was already slipping. Every breath was full of his scent, his warmth, her body was screaming for him. She was holding onto her moral ground by her fingernails and slipping fast.

“It will only take a moment.” His eyes caught hers, concern and tenderness swirled in the soft grey. She was lost. Wordlessly she moved the cloth to the side, exposing the length of her left leg, the bruising on her thigh wrapping around down to her ankle. Shingen warmed the salve again in his hands, then slid them down over her muscled leg. She bit her lip holding back a moan, her eyes sliding closed. She rested her forehead to his shoulder. He made her feel too good to care anymore, the pain was replaced with his warmth. Her entire world focused down to the heat of his hands stroking over her calf, massaging the salve into her skin. Her breath came out in a long shaky sigh. Then to her surprise, he slid the kimono back over her leg, covering her. Shingen’s lips pressed warmly to her forehead.

“Get some rest, little bird. I’ll leave this with you.” He laid the jar next to her futon and stood. Her body hummed in protest at the loss of his warmth.

She let herself slide down into the bed, he leaned forward wrapping her warmly in the covers.

“Sweet dreams, my goddess.”

6. Is it hard for you to get over someone?

Romantically? Not really. You kinda gotta just accept it and move on. In the past, always being like: this will never work because of reason xyz helps.

Friendship wise? Absolutely. It depends a lot on the emotional investment I put into the relationship, but I find myself still missing people I haven’t talked to since High School or Middle School.

7. What was your life like last year?

It was weird being a freshman in college and trying to survive. I had a lot of family problems going on along with one of my best friends from High School being on her death bed for a while. A bit of a crisis of faith as well. But we survived, God willing! I miss pre-pandemic times tho

17. Opinion on insecurities.

Everyone is insecure about something. It’s kinda fascinating how even though all of humanity is exactly the same (in terms of our struggles and insecurities, we don’t vary) we still judge others for having them. Confidence is seen as a virtue and the most attainable goal. Society profits off of your insecurities tho so be aware of what they are and don’t let yourself be scammed.

18. Do you miss how things were a year ago?

Certain aspects perhaps. But 2019 is gone. It performed and then it left. It can’t hurt us or help us anymore. There’s little use in dwelling on that and wishing for 2020 to be 2019.

Prompt #24: That Beaming Smile

((Features @verdantbard‘s catboi Khamri’a because it’s dumb catboi hours--))

“No way, are you serious?!”

“Yes!”

Ouros stared wide-eyed in awe as Rayana explained to him the concept of being in another world that was overrun by the element of light. He had been unconscious when he and Windsong were whisked away to Norvrandt by chaotic, unknown magic, and hadn’t come around until many, many hours after the fact. He was still recovering from the events of The Ghimlyt dark, and given his now lack of, well, a leg, he couldn’t get out of bed to figure out where and what had transpired in the last 24-bells.

So now he had Rayana giving him all the details.

“Wow… That’s… SO COOL?!” Ouros, sitting in his bed with his back leaned against a pile of pillows, flopped his head back. “UggGGGHH I wanna go SEE IT.”

“You can see it when you’ve fully recovered.”

Ouros’ head flung up instantly, his ears straight forward and up, to the sound of Khamri’a’s voice as the Keeper entered the room. Instantaneously, Ouros’ face lit up into the brightest smile.

“Khamri’a!!”

The other stopped in his tracks, then cleared his throat and strolled across the room, promptly pulling out an extra seat to sit beside Rayana, who was giving him a wide (and knowing) smile of her own. Ouros didn’t hide the fact that the presence of his “once friend then ex-friend now best friend” had made him unbelievably happy, as his ears wiggled practically nonstop.

“Good morning! I just woke up! How are you?! Ana-chan was just telling me about this new world we’re apparently on and how its flooded with light and rich with history and has its own Crystal Tower--”

Ouros was practically blabbering on a single breath, and while Khamri’a didn’t seem at all caught off-guard, Rayana was. She raised her hands.

“Ro-chan! Ro-chan please breathe!” She laughed as he sucked in a deep breath of air, and her hands lowered to her lap again. “Goodness, you act as though you have not seen him in weeks!”

“There is just so much to TALK about though! Like I want to know what he’s seen--!”

Ouros sat forward to ask and talk further, but winced in sudden pain from the movement. Ah, right, he was still… Wrapped in bandages. His movement, however, caused Khamri’a and Rayana both to shoot up from their chairs, and Khamri’a moved quickly to carefully and gently push Ouros’ back against his pillows. Ouros complied, only because the look of stern concern on both Khamri’a’s face, and folded arms of Rayana looking quite annoyed, were reason enough to not resist.

“What did we tell you about moving?” Khamri’a asked pointedly.

“To not do that…” Ouros murmured. A moment later, as Khamri’a moved away, his eyes pinched shut and his cheeks puffed with frustrated air as he pouted. “I wanna talk to Khamri’a!” He whined out loud, mostly at his body that continued to fight him with sore aches and pains.

“You can talk to him from your resting position!” Rayana scolded as she held up her index finger. “You will never get better if you keep moving! You will just open your wounds! Again!”

Ouros’ whining got louder and his head flopped back. “This is the WORST. I can’t do ANYTHINNNGG.”

Khamri’a sat himself back down in his seat. “Is it so impossible for you to have a conversation without animated movements?”

“YES.” Ouros rolled his head to look at him. “How are you supposed to know how excited I am if I’m not waving my arms around?!”

“Wiggle your ears.” Rayana pointed at her own horn. “They seem to be going wild anyway.”

Ouros paused to consider it, then rolled his head away. “It’s not the SAME.”

“Since when did you get so spoiled?” Khamri’a questioned in amusement. “Has Caoimhe’s smothering finally taken its toll on the pure and noble Ouros; corrupting him?”

Ouros eyed him before his head lifted to look at him. “You’re one to talk! You smother me more in a day than Mrs. Boss does in a week!”

Khamri’a’s head jerked back slightly in surprise, and Rayana side glanced at him curiously. The Keeper looked away, his arms crossing.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“You don’t think I haven’t woken up to find you snoozing in chairs near by?” Ouros grinned. “Let’s not forget the secret presents I find in my room sometimes.”

“You leave him presents, Neko-chan?” Rayana hid her wide, toothy grin behind a hand. “How sweet of you~!”

“Yes. Well. I can be thoughtful too, you know.” Khamri’a answered, his head still turned away from the two.

He was trying to hide it, but Ouros could see the light blush dusting his cheeks. The mere sight of it made his tummy tickle.

“Well I appreciate it.” Ouros said, beaming. “It’s nice to know someone has my back and will spoil me terribly at the same time!”

Khamri’a peeked at him, then slowly turned to look at him, a hopeless but extremely fond and soft smile forming on his face.

“You’re so ridiculous.”

Ouros’ expression dropped to a slightly gaping mouth, not at the comment of his ridiculousness no. But at how soft and fond that smile looked. He had seen Khamri’a smile before, sure, but never like this. For a second, it was like everything had aligned just perfectly to make this smile stand out: The lighting of the room -- namely that golden Flood of Light peering in through the curtains -- that framed his face, the balls of his cheeks, still light with blush, just ever-so-slightly squinting his eyes, his hair so elegantly framing his normally sharp features that were now soft with such kindness, such gentleness, such adoration, such warmth.

For that one second, he saw a glimpse beyond the barriers that Khamri’a kept up, saw the truth of his heart. Like a glowing, comforting light that beamed brightly from such a tiny little smile.

It sent his stomach into knots and his heart began racing uncontrollably.

Oh… Oh no…

Ouros immediately sunk down into his bed and rolled over onto his side, squeaking in pain as he did to cover his head with the blankets, hiding his now bright red face from the two others in his room. His eyes wide as waves of emotions suddenly crashed into him, that smile forever engraved in his mind. Rayana and Khamri’a watched in concerned confusion.

“Ro-chan?!” Rayana asked.

“I’M SUDDENLY TIRED GOODNIGHT.”

“... Didn’t you just say good morning?” Khamri’a questioned with a raised eyebrow.

“GOODNIGHT!!!”

Rayana and Khamri’a looked at each other, shrugged, and stood from their seats.

“We will let you rest then, and go find you some breakfast in the mean time.” Rayana said.

“THAT’D bE swELL!” Ouros squeaked. “gOOODNIGHT!”

The two looked at each other again, then quietly left the room.

As soon as Ouros heard the door shut, his eyes pinched closed and he stuffed his face into the pile of pillows nearby, still ever hidden by the blankets over his head. His blush worsened and his heart thumped loudly and wildly in his ears as he realized... 

“Oh no Khamri’a is actually really pretty.”

"I am bothered but not surprised to see how much of The 100 seems to be decided on the fly or after the fact by multiple people with differing goals and points of view." Ohhh this sounds intriguing, would you mind elaborating? I haven't been keeping up with cons or spoilers or behind the scenes stuff so I'm really curious about this!

There were a bunch of interviews from Boston and the actors said “I don’t know” to some questions that seem like they should have been well discussed in the writers room, included in the script, and communicated to the director and actors before filming.  Maybe they meant “I can’t say” but there were a lot of “huh, never thought of it” type comments that came across to me like “it’s not that deep and no one thinks about it that hard”. 

Instead it seems as if many character issues and continuity problems are never considered or get decided on the fly by whoever is in charge that day or even in the editing room.  Additionally: 

Bob knows what he turned in for the episode he directed.  He admits that he doesn’t know what Jason is going to do in edit.  It came across as if he wasn’t included in the discussions.  Editing is a huge part of creating a story.  It should be an enhancement, not a surprise.

Tasya said Echo cried when she heard about Monty and Harper and they made her reshoot it because Echo can’t show emotion. That’s a major character issue.  How much has she grown? How tight was her bond with spacekru?  Did anyone even think through how a lack of visible emotion is going to be interpreted by a fandom that’s already often against Echo?  

They shot Octavia’s story a couple of ways and how they edit it will determine how it comes across.  That should be in the script, IMO.  A character journey is a key part of the story and she’s one of the core.  If they want to wing it for Miller or Gaia, fine, they’re minor, but you can’t have a character driven story until you decide what drives your characters and where they’re going.  (So this is final confirmation for me that this is a plot driven story and the characters are Barbies.)

In today’s interviews Richard said he had to pin down Jason on how injured Murphy was post-cryo because if his hair hasn’t grown then he hasn’t healed.  Reading between the lines, it sounded like it was up to the actor to maintain basic continuity for his character. 

And we’ve known for a long time that they leave a lot on the cutting room floor and that significant lines about who loves / kisses / longs for who often don’t make it to the screen if they’re filmed at all. If you’re interested in communicating who your characters are and what drives them then making their bonds clear should be a focus.  There’s no reason Bob should have been the one to ask for a line for Bellamy about getting back to his family to make it clear why Bellamy was doing what he was doing. 

It’s just... uggg. I love that the show surprises me, but sometimes I wonder if it’s because they’re creating with the ecstatic energy of a seventh grade play at the gifted school.  The talent and desire is there but the basics get skipped too often.

Hi Tumblr. its been 2 months since we broke up and until now, I'm still hoping for her to come back. grabe akong undergo na depression lately and I bottled up all my emotion to myself. [Well technically nganung I share nako sa uban? who cares man sad :( ]. gi try nako to keep busy kay nagtraining ko sa salesforce - same sa iyang field but sometime sa akong kabusy, mahunahunaan gihapun nako sya.

gitry nasad nakog express akong feelings sa amoang very close friend hazel - I love her so much but I think I need to eventually stop expressing kay its not helping the situation anymore.

as my current mindset, compared to past breakups that I encounter from her. naay sudden shift and I feel tired about tolerating the toxicity. yes! I am officially calling it as toxic. but how to counter this one? I love Apple so much :'(

Toxic why? because everytime she initiate break up, she always rebut all the past issues. bisag wala koy gibuhat sa iyaha currently. I keep hearing peoples opinion about myself, I dont know unsa iyang gibuhat why people always have opinion about me but maybe this time I need to compose myself and dili na dapat nako e mind ang opinion sa uban. I dont know nganung cge syag pavictim around sa iyang friend, I just leave it to her.

in the past days na alone time nako. I keep validating myself that wala koy gibuhat na dautan sa iyaha. I have genuine intention and I love her unconditionally. I also eventually seeing red flags about her. things like.

1. 🚩 She keep on entertaining people bisag kabalo sya na nakagusto ang tao. - dili namn ni karun lng nahitabo. bisag kang raney day. same situation.

STORY : Last week, my HS friends invite me to a game called CODM. and when I add them one by one, I saw her on my online friend list and suddenly In game sila ni guy with the username - Bonamine which is si Jonas. yes! nahurt ko. kay nganu sad ko nagscroll ko sa history sa game niya. permi nlng sila in game until kadlawun. syempre pair jd nang discord ana. soo they are talking always. and workmate sila so always pd na sila in chat and huddle sa calls. pero anyways na hurt ko.

2. 🚩 pulling me sa akong past mistake. - Nganu man jd ni? dili naman unta ni ako. its been 7 years ago and the Patrick now is not the Patrick na from the past. Ive grown up. I eventually grow as a man, why bother pulling me from that. :( I leave it here nalng. its self explainatory.

3. 🚩 Taking for granted sa akong mga minimal acts for her - Yes, I am not romantic jd but if I love the person, gusto nako sila mahappy even for my simple act. I always remember unsa iyang likes and gusto niya ma achieve. I do a lot of effort para akong mahatud sa iyaha iyang gusto. matabangan gani nako ang uban tao sa ilang struggles, unsa nalng kaha sa iyaha. everytime makita nako sya na stress sa work, lutuan nko sya para maka chill sa sya kadyut. hug her on the back, trying to give her simple I love you and words of encouragement just give her the feeling that makaya rana niya. at night. bisag busy syag kuri2x sa iyang phone ug ako pd. marealize nako na I need to express it to her unsa nako sya ka love. I hug her every night, kissed her forehead and prayed for her success in life. pero I dont know aha ko nagkulang :(

4. 🚩 For the span of our relationship I am the most patient person. but nganung na feel nko na gakahurut nako? You know na permi jud mig bulag every year. healthy paba ni? with the same issue? naduggog na nako tanan Y*WA, pist*, manipulative, sadboii ka, wa kay pulos, wa kay future na tao buanga ka, mamatay na unta ka, insecure ka na tao, maypa si __ , f*ck you, bw*sit ka, abusive ka na tao ug unsa pana. [kana ra akong ma enumerate kay mao nang nitatak sa akoa], yes I forgive her everytime na iya na isulti nako pero It keeps dwelling to myself and eventually affected my faith, and belief to my self worth. cguro self explainatory nani sya.

5. 🚩 Always make me the bad person around sa iyang friends - di man nako sya masisi ani. pero feel nko dili healthy na cge nalng nimo ipagsigawan na unsa daw ko kadautan na tao. bisag wala nako nabuhat ug if nabuhat man gani nako. past na kaayu. and matalk nana namo way back before pa. pero I cant control unsa iyang gusto buhatun. naay certain guy na cgeg wisdom2x bisag wala sya kaila nako. yes! ok raman na kay lagi friend lagi. pero dili naman sad cguro na mag wisdom2x ka diha pero wa ka kaila sa giistoryahan. nakaremember ko sa giignun ni Apolinario and Igi sa akoa katung naka balo sya nagbulag mi [wa ko kahibalo nganung nakaabut sa ilaha ang news pero feel nko tunggod sa post2x sa fb na sad qoutes or unsa ba] pero ignun nya.

"kung unsa man gani inyung situation run. be strong and di man pwede na kung unsa akong naexperience pd di man applicable sa tanan basta just go with the flow, if nakasala ka, pag ask ug forgiveness and if ikaw nagpatigbulag, try to access first unsa imong nafeel and unsa ang situation, just be who u are and people opinion will not matter anymore. lahi2x ta"

and I feel blessed for the people around me. very mature and sincere advice jd. I also leave it here nlng pd.

6. 🚩 Ang kwarta grabe jud ka demonyo, nganung mag away mn sa kwarta. well akong principle, what mine is yours and whats yours is mine - just respect kung unsay willing ihatag based sa kakayanan rasad. gakahiubos jd ko permi everytime na maghisgut na sa kwarta kay lagi mas dako pamn sad syag income compare nako. laki bya ko. dapat ako magcarry sa amoa. ipamukha jd niya sa akoa unsa ko ka way pulos without knowing it. I just leave it here nlng pd.

uggg... sa akong past years na nilabay

1. Katung Raney days. soo devastating jud to sa akoa. grabi jud akong hilak atu na time. kanang feel nimo na nafeel betrayed kaayu ka. yes naa koy naingun na di mao just because I feel betrayed and cheated.

2. Nadungan pa nako sa usa ka friend niya na nanumbag ko bisag wala nako to nabuhat ever.

3. Gi pakaulawan ko sa Curb side sa Pabayo Hayes. ni pleasee ko sa iyaha na mag storya mi [nag away mi atu na time]. iya kong giwakli ug gishagit shagitan tapos pagka hulog sa akong chem book iya ra dayun ko gibyaan tapos sakay sa jeep pa uptown.

4. Sa tanan nako milestone sa life, permi sya absent :(, kana bitawng feeling na nagsabut mo and happy kaayu ko. tas gi indian ka or dili daw sya available kay gikapoy sya. grabi jud ko kamabaw ug kalipay. katung nihanggat akong fam na mag dine out with her para mag meet the parent na, pero di sya ganahan,katung first purchase nako sa akong new phone - Sony to sya. [Gihaguan bya nako so grabe jud ka sentimental] nag ask ko sa iyha to dine out para magcelebrate or unsa pero di daw sya kay kapoyan sya, sa akong pagka deanlist. nag ask ko na mag celebrate sa ta panalagsa, pero wala ghapun sya., sa akong graduation pictorial, wala pd sya kay kapuyan sya. balak unta nako eapil sya sa akong wacky post pic :(, tapos sa akong first employer - Logicbase, nag ask pd ko sa iyaha na magcelebrate pero di sya ganahan muadtu. ug dghan pa higayun, mao lng na ang nitatak sa akoa.

5. Ang mga pamalikas bai. grabi maka downgrade ug tao. grabi ka maldita jd. ok raman unta mag minaldita pero halos kaonon naka sa yuta sa iyang curse sa akoa. masabut namn guru na.

6. Mga labay2x ug gamit. she didnt even respect sa imong mga gamit. grabi jud ko ka frustrated atu na time kay kana bitawng feeling na tanan nimo gamit na ginaused currently is gikan sa imong hagu, dili na gikan sa parents? tapos in anaon lng. sakitan jd ko kaayu atu na time. kay gitagaan nkog value tanan nako gamit atu na time.

to be continued. I have to work on something

[vol-carnage]

Lots of MEA spoilers xane dont read this

[the-blue-of-the-sky]

Me: I’m in a constant state of pain and because of that I’m in a constant state of anxiety and depression and I don’t enjoy living anymore because everything I do is jaded by the fact that I feel so sick and i spend most my day thinking about ways to manage my pain and I keep going to doctors and nobody is helping me but how sick I am is really affecting my mental health and my friendships because I don’t normally feel well enough to do things and if someone doesnt stop this pain i dont want to exist anymore.

Mom: Ok but the other night you went to your friend’s house and said you had fun so like your just being dramatic because it can’t be that bad if you can still have fun with friends

Me: I had fun being with people but the whole time i had to base my actions off of what I thought would help minimize my pain in that moment in order to enjoy the night and I left early saying you needed me home because It felt like the pain was about to get bad

Mom: Sounds dramatic to me, if you don’t go to the doctor again and get this crazy sick girl stuff under control your boyfriend might break up with you because it sounds like your not being very much fun. Uggg whatever its too late for this emotional drama goodnight.

Me: …

And this is why I don’t talk to my parents about things.
