Never Good Enough
Tumblr media
“Get out, I have no use for you anymore, you’re nothing but a disappointment.” Watching the door slam in his face, Klaus just stood there, the intense emotions of it all slowly washing over him, taking over his being. He tried at first, begged each of his siblings to let him stay, tried to beg Allison to let him stay under her bed, pleading that he wouldn’t bother her. Each person he turned to slammed the rest of the doors in his face. He was alone, none of his family wanted him, simply rolled his eyes and shoved him out the door after finding him trying to occupy the pantry after sneaking back into the house. He was left with a plate of cookies and the woman meant to be his mother waving him off with a smile like he was going to summer camp.
It all crashed down around him, the fact he wasn’t even eighteen years old yet and had no place to call home, his family all turning their backs on him as if he was a rabid raccoon trying to take their food. It hurt so much, he didn’t know what to do with all the emotions, with the disappointment of his dead brother Ben glaring, telling him how pathetic it was he was wasting his gift of getting to be alive, how he should be thankful he didn’t have to suffer and die.
Pulling at his short curls, Klaus just let out the emotions in a scream, the plate of cookies breaking against the stone in the alley he’d wound up in after walking for hours to try and distract from all the emotions and pain. “Shut up! I didn’t kill you; I’d give you my life in a heartbeat, they loved you, and cherished you in a way I never was. All I am is a pathetic junkie, an addict who can’t even manage to maintain purpose or importance. You don’t know how much of a fucking hell my life has been!”
Shoving the last of the pills he had on his person into his mouth, Klaus downed them with a bottle of vodka, barely registering he gulped down nearly half a handle, emptying the last of the bottle before throwing it and watching it shatter. “I would trade places with you! I know our siblings would very much prefer if I had died instead, and I see you feel just the same.”
Gripping his fists and letting his nails covered with black polish dig into his palms until he felt the warm, sticky blood dripping, he turned, the realization that he was alone, stuck with a dead brother who believed he was a useless fuck up, Klaus let out a shaky breath, speaking more to the silence where other, much more angry ghosts tended to occupy when he was more sober, he let the tears that were blurring his vision stream down his cheeks, his thin arms wrapping around his thin form. “I’m alone… there’s nowhere to go… no one who wants me.”
Dropping to his knees, he scrambled against the back corner of the alley, his whole body trembling with broken sobs. “I tried, I never wanted to be like this… I wanted to make dad proud, for everyone to see me as someone who held value, someone they could be proud of, love…” Dragging his long legs up to press his knees to his chest, he let the emotions fade and be replaced with the empty, warm feeling the vodka provided, mixing with the oxy and Xanax he’d washed down. “I just… wanted someone, anyone… wanted them to notice, to realize I was suffering. Dad said it best, his greatest disappointment… letting my fears obscure my value.”
Flinching when a bolt of lightning was followed by a crack of loud thunder, he pulled his knees closer, watching Ben walk away, leaving him alone, the downpour of rain soaking through his clothes and leaving him drenched and shivering against the warm summer air. “I’ll always be a pathetic fuck up, at least I am consistent…”

Absolutely obsessed with how quickly Diego just accepted the whole Umbrella/Sparrow dance off hallucination as a real thing. He looked around confused for a minute, questioned Luther once, and then just fucking rolled with it. No wondering how they all knew the same choreography. No asking where the music was coming from. Man was just full on down to dance. Truly peak himbo behavior.

Diversity wins! Your big/little bro supports you in your transition but still doesn't think you should be number one

Why are shows with gay people just like 10x better than any other in human existance?
Like every show with a gay person just automatically because revolutionary and has the most amazing fandoms with the most vivid, creative, awe-inspiring plots and word building.
Arcane, Good Omens, BBC Sherlock Holmes, Our Flag Means Death, Umbrella Academy, Shameless, BBC Merlin, The Last of Us, the list goes on!
But I feel like any other show, regardless of genre, just falls flat when it lacks the ✨crispness✨ of queerness. Am I the only one that thinks this?

could you imagine being Five? Having to bury your siblings at the age of 13, only being to vaguely recognise them via a tattoo on their arms?
only to get back to those people and realise that not only have they barely spoken to each other since he got lost. They barely liked each other at that point.
they loved each other yes, but liked? I don't think so.
And one died tragically young to a point where none of them talked about it.
i mean does Five even know how Ben died? Do you think Five looked for Ben only to not find him? Or did he find his statue and realise that Ben had been gone for years at that point?
imagine going from the young versions of them which weren't happy but happy enough. To the versions that he buried, only to realise they were probably just as lonely as he was.
Five trying to fix his family so nobody has to feel like him when they probably already have.

thinking about how when the sparrows are introduced it’s by their real names,, with their numbers being the nicknames (name aka #)
but when the umbrellas were introduced, their real names were the ones in quotation marks, with their number displayed first (# “name”)
