#~loss and grief

[an-na-ko]

Lyra, my beloved cat of 13 years, passed away this year on Father's Day. She's been by my side through very difficult times and was my little rock of steady and unrelenting love. I struggled a lot drawing this, and struggled a lot posting it, but I know I would've wanted to read a comic like this that validated my grief for her when I lost her.

Wherever you are, Lyra my little summer star, I love you always! Thank you for being the best thing in my life.

Legends never die, and as such, Jellie will continue to live on in Minecraft and within our hearts until the end of time. It was a pleasure to draw you, Jellie. Have fun playing in the stars.

I grieve the little things I did not get to say to you and the things I never will.

[dissociativecollective]

Grieving, grieving, constantly grieving. I mourn what could have been, what should have been, what will not be, what I cannot save.

I love you, just like that, though I’m not hopeful. This doesn’t prevent me from loving you. I love you the way I love certain memories. Sometimes I think our life together was more of a dream than something we actually experienced. And on top of that I’m feeling like I lost you. I’ve lost you, though perhaps I never even had you. And the worst thing is I know I’ll never win you over.

You know I didn’t want to, have to haunt you, but what a ghostly scene

fearne choosing to go back to ligament manor, when before she was unknowingly kept there

dorian asking his parent's approval instead of taking it out of fear

chetney gaining control over himself and passing along his knowledge to others

ashton seeking answers instead of hiding from them

orym choosing to live his life to the fullest, balancing old and new responsibilities

laudna choosing a quiet life, when before she had isolation forced on her

imogen using her powers to help others and build new communities, instead of being shunned because of them

bells hells giving the gods a choice in their future

everyone getting to choose

[deathlywounded]

Yeah, yeah, I know. I’ll put myself on the corner on my own.

i hate ever asking but im in a bind. i dont want donations or money if ur unable, we all have our struggles. but helping spread mutual aid for someone chronically ill and disabled would genuinely mean the world ;^; im struggling with a lot in my body, i have precancer so recovery can take longer than usual. (if needed i can show proof) and with the collapsed lung its been hell
