History repeated
Zach and Gray Mitchell
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A giggle went through the Mitchell house as they were getting ready for the three kids to go and visit their aunt. The oldest of the three was seventeen-year-old Zach, who loved to look at girls and be on his phone most of the time. The middle child was Gray, who loved dinosaurs and loved to learn everything that he could and was only twelve. The youngest of the three was y/n. She was only five years old and loved to play with her big brothers when they will. Gray would play anytime, but it took some convincing from Zach, and she would always help out around the house.
While their parents were getting y/n bags packed and getting them in the car, y/n was sitting outside playing with the snow. When it was time to go, their dad, Scott, picked her up and put her in her car seat in the car. Not long after that, Gray came running out the door and sat to her left; while they were waiting for Zach to come, he decided to play with her. Once everyone was in the car, they set off to the airport. They gave the bags in and got the tickets, when they reached the airport. Karen, their mother, almost didn't let y/n go when they started their goodbyes. Gray got her out of her arms and put y/n next to him with a smile on his face and holding her hand, while Zach was too busy on his phone. After Karen gives Zach the rules, the three siblings set off on a journey.
Once they arrived at Jurassic world, y/n and Gray couldn't hold their excitement. Zach could relate to a five-year-old, but he didn't understand what Gray found so exciting. They had someone called Zara showing them around after they had caught up with Claire, their aunt. They snuck away from Zara. Zach got a call from Karen a couple of minutes after they escaped from Zara. She was not happy with Claire.
The three siblings decided to go on the Gyrosphere after watching the Mosasaurus feeding show.
"Gray, are we all going on the same one?" Y/n asked her older brother with her head tilted to the side.
"Of course, they just released ones with three seats, so we all can go on one together." Gray told y/n with a big smile, and he got one in return from y/n.
Y/n cheered as one arrived, and they got in and bulked up. While they were looking around, y/n was enjoyed looking at the dinosaurs, but when they went off the track, she became worried and scared. She held onto Gray's arm without her knowing. When they found some dinosaurs, y/n was busy watching them. Gray pointed out that there were five dinosaurs instead of four that Zach thought. As the indominus Rex kicked the Gyrosphere, they got turned upside down, and little y/n was trying to keep her tears in.
Zach got them out, and ran to a waterfall with y/n in his arms. He told her to hold her breath on the count of three and Gray to jump.
They jumped.
Just as y/n was about to lose her breath Zach swam up to the surface. She began to cough and held on to Zach. They all got out of the water. Y/n hugged Gray as Zach hugged them both. The hug didn't last long as they began walking through the forest. Walking through, y/n was holding hands with Zach or Gray, which they didn't mind because they knew she was there. They soon came across the old visitor centre, where Zach and Gray found an old car they fixed up with y/n sitting and watching them. It did not take them long until they were on their way back to the Resort.
Driving up to the gate the Dimorphodon and Pteranodon got lose from their cage as a helecoptor had crashded into it. Once they entered Zara had found them and told them they were going to meet up with Claire. Making their way, Zara was picked up and 'fed' to the Mosasaurus. Y/n buried her face into Gray's stomach.
Not long after, they found Claire looking around for them with a man not far behind her. Gray called out to her as Zach picked y/n up into his arms, as she hid her face in his neck. They began to run to safety and found a car to get to the Velociraptors cage. In the car, the Michelle siblings discovered that the man's name was Owen Grady, a trainer at Jurassic World.
When they arrived at the raptor's cage, Owen soccer punched a man approaching him. Y/n was just giggling as if she knew the man was bad news as the boys pulled a face. y/n ran straight over to the raptors with her older brothers following close behind her when they were let out. Seeing as there was a cage separating y/n from the rectors they weren't in a panic, until she was harassing Zach to pick her up to see them better. He did and y/n had her arms wrapped around Zach's neck as he had his arms tightly wrapped around her waist to make sure that she doesn't fall or get hurt.
Not long after, they were taken to a medical van and told to hold on tight to each other. Y/n looked towards her brothers as if asking for permission, latching herself onto them when they both nodded. Not long after, a man opened the back door, telling them to drive, only to be pulled back by a raptor. The van drove away. Gray got one of the tasers and, with help from Zach, tasered the raptor. Owen came from the scrubs to lead them to safety. When the van stopped, Zach held y/n in his arms as they made their way through the visitor centre, only to hear glass breaking. Checking it out to see Hoskins and he started to talk about using the dinosaurs for the army and military, a raptor attacked him.
They all ran outside to 'safety' after being stopped by the raptor that killed Hoskins, and three other raptors soon surrounded them. Owen gained his place as Alpha again, and the girls attacked the indominus. Gray mumbled something about more teeth as y/n hung onto Zach. Claire ran off with a flare, and Owen soon joined them in hiding as Claire came with the T-Rex.
"RUN!"
She shouted as they ran out from the shelter that was about to collapse and hid behind a stone. The Mosasaurus had pulled the indominus down into the water. They all let a breath of relief out as they realised the indominus was gone. They watched as the T-Rex and Blue, the last raptor, walked away in different directions.
They were in a warehouse with y/n asleep on Zach's chest and holding onto Gray's hand. While waiting, Claire stroked Zach and Gray's hair as she watched y/n sleep on her older brother's chest. Claire looked away for a second and saw her sister, so she woke y/n up as she told the boys that their parents were there. When y/n woke up, she was still sleepy, but when she saw her mother, she jumped out of Zach's arms and ran to her crying out 'mama' with tears streaming down her face as her brothers hugged their dad. Y/n held onto their mother as Karen hugged Claire. Y/n was passed to her dad. She held onto him tightly and refused to let go.
They made their way home. Where they knew they were going to be safe.
The end.

a concerning amount of witchblr will be like "um actually new years was stolen by europeans from the ancient god scroobus mcdoobus" and then you actually try to research scroobus mcdoobus and it turns out he was invented in the 1940s by a conspiracy theorist who powdered every meal with ketamine and thinks that queer people are reincarnated fish

So one thing I’ve noticed is that people’s DnD characters may vary but there is usually an underlying thread that they all have in common. This thread is typically related to what that person struggles with the most.
For instance, my betrotheds DnD characters: a bitchy warlock we had to bust out of two different pacts, a sassy barbarian, a reformed drow cultist, and a sunshine fighter cleric.
All these characters were wildly different but at their very core struggle was them grappling with their self worth. My betrothed struggles with their worth a great deal and even with different facets showing their characters all have that too.
Mine all tend to contend with different themes of loneliness and acceptance. Surprise, surprise, the little autistic gremlin yearns to have been met with more love and lasting friendships.
So we’re at breakfast. I am meeting a new friend of my betrotheds for the first time. It’s been twenty minutes since I’ve met this man. I say my theory. He laughs. He starts to describe a few of his characters but specifies that he often has healing aspects. He gives a very broad overview of their character arcs.
I ponder for a moment then said, “Would you like to have my assessment?”
He laughed, “Sure!”
“We’ve just met. It’s gonna get real.”
“Bring it on.”
“I think your struggle is that you feel you must offer something of value or service to people to be worthy of their love.”
His jaw dropped. His fork froze midway to his mouth. A potato fell. He stared into space as this sank in. Quietly he said, “Oh.”

invisible scars (referenced previous talk here)
[ID: A colourless, digital Trigun comic of Vash and Wolfwood talking about Wolfwood's scars. They're both laying in bed and topless. Vash lays on top of Wolfwood, playing with the rosary around his neck. Then, Vash kisses a spot on Wolfwood's chest. Wolfwood asks, "What are you doing?" Vash smiles sadly, "You got shot here. In the last town we visited. You didn't even bother moving."
Vash props himself up over Wolfwood, who frowns slightly. Wolfwood is quiet for a moment before he says, "You remember that, huh?" Vash grabs Wolfwood's left wrist and brings it to his face. "And here." He kisses another spot there. "When you helped free the hostages from that robber..." Wolfwood dismissively says, looking away, "Was a lucky shot." Vash huffs, “Don’t brag. Jeez.”
Half of Wolfwood's expression is shown, eyes returning to Vash who is now sitting up, continuing to say, "And..." Vash goes on and kiss Wolfwood's right palm. "You got cut here, even though that girl was aiming at me." A moment from the past flashes, of Wolfwood grabbing a knife aimed at Vash, his hand bleeding.
At present, Vash moves down and puts another kiss on Wolfwood's right shoulder. "And here, from watching my back." Another memory flashes of Wolfwood and Vash back to back. Vash looks back as Wolfwood grins while holding Punisher, bleeding from multiple gunshots in his shoulder.
"And," Vash combs up Wolfwood's hair to reveal his forehead, "Here." A final memory shows Wolfwood with a regeneration vial in his mouth while getting shot on his temple. The next panel is framed in blood with Vash at the center, eyes wide and stunned in horror. The next panel is a closed up shot of Wolfwood's eye, locked on Vash's face.
Back to present, Vash’s head is bowed down as Wolfwood raises a hand to his nape and says, “Spikey.”
Wolfwood looks serious and frowns as he says, "We talked about this. Those were my decisions. They're not there anymore. Forget about them." Vash looks very sad before he smiles ruefully and says, "I still see them. All the time." He leans down so they touch foreheads. Wolfwood’s sorrowful expression can be seen as Vash says, "You protect so much. I could never forget what you've done to me. And many others..."
In the last image, they're drawn more cartoonishly. Wolfwood sweats and asks, "You don't actually remember every wound, right?" Vash points at a spot on his chest. "Kuroneko left a scratch here 7 times." Wolfwood, startled, says, "Why the hell are you keeping count—" End ID]

#vashwood#vash the stampede#nicholas d wolfwood#trigun#trigun maximum#another scars comic for one of the vw week days!!!! frankly i think about their scars WAY too often . most notably wolfwood's because#it really symbolizes a lot for him imo bc for vash it's a history of all the people that's ever harmed him betrayed him and the trust he has#given to humanity despite it all. its a beautiful reflection of his character and then u look at ww and presumably#since we dont really see him half naked Ever (shame) and i mean. i guess technically its a hc -- i assume he wouldn't have any scars bc#of the regen potions (which is why he doesnt have his t scars btw the regen pot took them away :pensive:)#in a way its like washing his hands of blood. giving him the body of someone who might never been involved in a fight never held a gun#but he knows thats not true yet he cant really do anything about it anyway bc he's still just human. if he stops taking the regen pots#he can't press forward. so its just a rinse and repeat and growing accustomed to whats inflicted on him because he knows it'll go away at#the end of the day. he's human but he's also not he's far beyond what could be considered a normal human but he still just is.#mortal but also not immortal. idk. i overthink about it a lot GMSKGMDK frankly i dont think it matters THAT much in the context of trimax#but it means a lot to me somehow. also thinking about how no matter how many times ww kills he's never numb to the sensation of it. maybe#the adrenaline gets to him for the beginning half but ive been rereading like.. vol 3? and that entire fight for ww#u can slowly see him spiral as he keeps on going on. anyway anyway. i love ww#ruporas art

Crusaders ruled Palestine and most of the Levant for far longer than Zionists have ruled Palestine and just like how the Crusaders no longer control even one inch of Palestine and the rest of the Levant anymore, there will be a time where Zionists will no longer control one inch of Palestine anymore.
Its only a matter of time before their lobbying money runs dry.

This week alone saw Atlanta-area raids by law enforcement that took a woman out of her house with no shirt, left a naked photo of another woman on display after ransacking a room and dragged a man by his hair – while arresting none of them.
The pre-dawn raids on three houses on Thursday were the third Swat-style operation in residential areas of Atlanta and nearby unincorporated DeKalb county tied to a movement that began in 2021 – and the first in which the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) played a prominent role.
The fight against Cop City has attracted national and global headlines, especially after police shot and killed one environmental protester at a campsite in a public park – the first such incident of its kind in US history. At least one of the search warrants for Thursday’s raid seen by the Guardian authorized the FBI to confiscate dozens of items from the raided homes – including laptops, cellphones, “Defend the Atlanta Forest” stickers and posters and personal journals. The operation came after weeks of Atlanta officials promoting a campaign to catch activists linked to arson against construction and police equipment, all the while activists have been committing more acts of sabotage, alternating with nonviolent, civil disobedience.

Two memorial days in very close date,
In favour of some calculation
What is the cost of having a state
And what was the cost when we didn't
שני ימי זיכרון סמוכים כל שנה,
לטובת החישוב הכללי
כמה עולה לנו עם מדינה
וכמה עולה לנו בלי.
