Winner by Conan Gray is sooo sooo Black Brothers coded. It's literally the embodiment of how I see Regulus reacting to Sirius leaving and Sirius to Regulus death and the aftermath of it all..... the pain, the anger, the angstsss

Everyone should be allowed to wear their boyfriend's clothes, except for Patroclus. That guy should be kept far away from anything cloth or armor that has ever brushed even an inch of Achilles.

ahh the beauty of living an ordinary life, of enjoying the little boring things life can offer.

#recently watched the movie about time #there's something about the premise of a person being able to time travel and choosing to use it to find love #and have a blissfully domestic ordinary life #ordinary life #living

You know, when I see fictional characters who repress all their emotions, they're usually aloof and very blunt about keeping people at a distance, sometimes to an edgy degree—but what I don't see nearly enough are the emotionally repressed characters who are just…mellow.

Think about it. In real life, the person that's bottling up all their emotions is not the one that's brooding in the corner and snaps at you for trying to befriend them. More often than not, it's that friendly person in your circle who makes easy conversation with you, laughs with you, and listens and gives advice whenever you're upset. But you never see them upset, in fact they seem to have endless patience for you and everything around them—and so you call them their friend, you trust them. And only after months of telling them all your secrets do you realize…

…they've never actually told you anything about themselves.

Just finished Circe by Madeline Miller and OMG!!! OMFG!

It's beautifully written. But that ending? WOW.

As a Telemachas lover and Odysseus hater this has me finished. Dead. Done. Buried.

"I want to be a body for you. I want to chase you, find you, I want to be eluded and teased and adored; I want to be defeated and victorious—I want you to cut me, sharpen me. I want to drink tea beside you in ten years or a thousand..."

Sick of dating apps and hook up culture, I want to meet someone the old fashioned way: as super soldier agents on opposing sides of an endless battle across time and space leaving each other elaborate puzzles that, when decoded, reveal flirtatious letters.
