Ellie looks so concerned and Dina looks worried that Ellie will think she's a burden (she does).

non-Angela Bassett related post but my husband and I fell back into the Battlestar Galactica rabbit hole on Mary McDonnell’s birthday without realizing it.
I completely forgot this happened on the show, but it’s just brilliance on top of brilliance. Happy Birthday, Mary!
thank you, @bestbuddybobby for pointing out it’s her birthday because i literally had no clue

very underrated moment in the iwtb bed scene is when scully says that she’s lying awake “cursing god,” and mulder asks what’s wrong and she tells him about her patient and how this little boy is going to die and there’s nothing anyone will do. and the way that they talk about it for a minute and then he whispers, “just go to sleep. let me curse god for awhile.”
actually the most romantic sentiment of the movie, i think! to say, you rest, i’ll take this shift. you don’t have to give it up, but let me hold it tonight. bearing witness as a love language etc
#happy birthday iwtb you fucking crime against nature of a film#also#in that scene#the way that she says ‘you think it’s because of william’ a little defensively#and he says ‘i think OUR son left an emptiness in BOTH of us that can’t be filled’#that language matters so much because he’s not saying like….you’re struggling with this because you’re fucked up as a mother bc of your loss#he’s saying WE have this burden. i know because i have that too. this is OURS. in the way that he is ours and loving him is ours#txf.txt#iwtb

hurt + loscar
Oscar doesn’t hear it from Logan. The news makes his heart sink like a rock, sits in a pit in his stomach. It isn’t a surprise, but that almost makes it harder. He wonders how Logan is taking the news— how long he’s known. For the first time in a long time, Oscar doesn’t know what to do. How to comfort him, if he even wants to be comforted. He didn’t tell him so, maybe not, but. Logan’s not one to like being alone.
Logan’s voice is quiet when he speaks, “I think,” he pauses, continues slowly. “We should take a break.” He isn’t looking Oscar in the eyes.
The statement takes him by surprise, makes him slow to react. After a moment, anger, and hurt, takes over. He takes a deep breath, remembers Logan is hurting, tries to reason with him.
“You don’t mean that.”
This time, Logan does look him in the eye. “You know I do.” It’s enough to punch the air out of his lungs.
Oscar's mind is moving a mile a minute. He's wading through syrup. He feels dizzy. He tries to think. He's usually so good at that.
#the news beingthat logan got replaced at williams#and then basically doenst wnat to hold oscar back + its hard to see him do so well while hes replaced + he doesnt want to burden him so he#cuts himself free#loscar#osctober 2024#f1 rpf#drabbles#writing#del dabbles#well. i tried or whatever

can you write ellie williams x reader that’s basically headcanons as to how ellie helps reader through her mental struggles
| a/n : it has been so long since i've done headcanons w o w ! it is a little brief just because i wanted to keep it vague to really apply to anything so i hope that's okay... thank you for requesting <3 i just adore her sm
how ellie helps when you're mentally struggling :
-beyond her quick temper and 'rough around the edges' attitude, ellie is truly such a dork who fiercely loves and protects the people that she cares about... which is, in this case, you.
-ellie always wants you to be open about what's on your mind, whether or not you think it's a big deal. she worries and cares about you, so she feels proud when she's able to be there for you. of course, she knows you're more than capable and truly believes in your strength. it takes courage to open up about something, she admires that and reminds you whenever necessary.
-let's be real though, sometimes she speaks without thinking and the end result is not always good. she's careful with you, thoughtful and reflective on your bad days, truly never wanting to cross a line or even risk some sort of misunderstanding.
-jokes, jokes, and more jokes. having a bad day? ellie is going to whip out that joke book whether you like it or not. they will probably be the most corny dad jokes of all time but she will keep at it until you're laughing in amusement or in frustration, glaring at her to please stop. ("okay, tough crowd")
-okay why do i feel like she would totally mock the type of people who are like 'no girl don't be sad, you're so beautiful you should smile aha x' and she like says it to you as a joke in a dumb voice
-happy to let you rot away in bed with her for a day, sleeping on and off and talking quietly until you feel ready to face the world...but also the type to chuck a jacket at you and force take you on a walk outside to get some fresh air... good luck figuring out which one you're going to get that day (it's with love, i promise)
-anyone who hurts your feelings or makes you feel even worse on a bad day... good luck!
-she's stubborn, so at the beginning it might be a little rocky as she tries to navigate what she thinks might be best versus what you actually need. she of course takes the time to get to know you and what is helpful and healthy for you
-catches on to any shifts in your mood pretty quickly. she can read you well and quite often shows initiative towards the situation if she can tell that you're slipping.
-respects you always and that doesn't falter when you're struggling.
-i think she would def help out with your chores or something just to really do whatever she could to help ease some sort of burden off of you.
-a really good listener. she'll make small jokes but never at your expense, she appreciates the fact that you trust her enough to be honest about your struggles and she never wants to make you regret that. if you need to vent, she'll be happy to listen quietly and if you need advice, she always tries her best to get it right for you.
#we are just gonna ignore the whole 'well you're a burden now aren't you' thing#okay?? okay sounds great thanks#because that was literally so belligerently foul#ellie williams x female reader#ellie williams x reader#ellie tlou x reader#ellie williams x you#ellie williams headcanons

Thinking about the difference in these two pictures. The first, she is frantic and scared. In this moment, she is not willing to be embraced. She’s still fighting against him and is no where near calm. In the second, her expression is more relaxed. She’s realized it’s Joel. The adrenaline is starting to wear down knowing he’s here and that she’s safe with him now. She’s willing to be embraced now, half of it being her moving towards his chest on her own, and the other half being him guiding her to it.
All this to say, these shots we’ve seen in the countless gifs and trailers are not back to back. There is time between them. Time of Ellie realizing it’s him, time for calm reassurances, and time for her to physically relax (look at their height difference. She is significantly lower in the second as opposed to the first. She is probably on her knees and sitting tall in the first one, but falls back to sitting on her heels in the second when she realizes it’s him) before the embrace.
Thinking about an “Ellie! Hey, It’s me. Look, look…it’s me” with a hand to her cheek. How she’ll let out a questionable “Joel?” Not believing he’s real because the last time she saw him, he was out cold. Thinking about a “I’m here, babygirl”
#will I ever stop talking about it?#no.#will I ever be sane over it?#mmm no.#will I ever stop burdening you all with my inner monlogue that torments me every day?#absolutely not.#I will be biting and scratching and gnawing and shouting on Sunday#it’s not gonna be good for me.#the last of us hbo#joel miller#ellie williams#tlou spoilers

okay i've seen the FNAF movie and oh my gosh. ohmy gosh. it was so good. i am fourteen years old again and i have to ramble senselessly. spoilers ahead, of course.
dude. the callbacks. the music. the lighting. the characterization of Mike Schmidt. i can't put all my love into words.
-the mirror saying "IT'S ME" in the dust???? UGH i almost screamed. love love love.
-the Balloon Boy jumpscares absolutely killed me, that was so incredibly funny. especially the one where it turns out to just be a little tiny figurine on a shelf. i was cackling. it's very obvious that this movie was made with its audience perfectly in mind, because it trolled us so well
-i was almost a little disappointed that Foxy just kind of flew down the hallway instead of that dorky run that he does in the game but that's not a big deal, obviously it was meant to be a very tense moment and that would have ruined it.
-on the note of Foxy, the "duh-duh dum dum" sounds??? chills. i love that they used the original sounds and how scary they made him.
-the dream scenes. oh my gosh. the emotional impact those had on me was immense. they really really made you care so much about Mike so quickly. and obviously dreams have been an important theme in the fandom for so long and i think they did them really well.
-the characterization of the animatronics/ghost children was perfect. yes i had my doubts during the fort scene. but it was so good in retrospect. it made perfect sense. these are the personalities of children. i LOVE that they completely ignored the widespread personalities given to the animatronics by the fandom (not gonna lie, i always hated those because they missed the entire point).
-i need someone to explain to me why Evan (Golden Freddy kid) was blond. Because Evan and the Crying Child are the same person, right? the Crying Child always had brown hair. i know the movies are meant to be separate canon though so he might not be Evan at all. or maybe i'm missing something. either way, that kid did such a fantastic job in his role.
-THE SOUNDTRACK. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. the retro vibes mixed with a freaking choir?????? absolutely INCREDIBLE.
-Josh Hutcherson was the perfect Mike. i never doubted that he would crush this role but he really crushed it. he's wonderful and i loved getting to see his talent again after not really seeing much of him since The Hunger Games. he's wonderful. i already said that but it's fine.
-THE CREDITS SONG!!! THEY GOT THE SONG!!!! i might have actually screamed.
-THE MESSAGE AT THE END AND THE MARIONETTE'S THEME. DUDE.
-i went crazy when those sounds started up at the end. i couldn't decipher them myself (auditory processing issues go brrrr) but i looked it up immediately and was delighted to find that others had already figured it out. "COME FIND ME". BET
i'll add on to this post as I remember more, i'm sure. all in all, they did a fantastic job and i really, really hope they make more. i especially hope they make a movie out of 4 because that was always my favorite game story-wise. would make an absolutely terrifying and emotional movie.
#sorry if this is how my followers find out i'm a fnaf fan#listen it's not an easy burden to bear#but i couldn't not ramble about this#fnaf#fnaf movie#five nights at freddy's#fnaf spoilers#mike schmidt#william afton#if you have a negative opinion about this movie seriously don't talk to me about it XD#for better or worse i'm crazy about it

me yelling into the void: ELLIE’S LIFE ALWAYS MATTERED AND HER IMMUNITY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT HER LIFE WAS WORTH LIVING FOR WHO SHE WAS AND JOEL KNEW THAT AND THAT’S WHY HE SAVED HER THAT’S WHY HE WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN DESPITE THE PAIN IT ULTIMATELY CAUSES HE DID NOTHING WRONG.
