your eyes are killing me softly.

There are certain constants in life. 
For instance, the plethora of flowers that blossomed under the dew of spring, and the thunder of rain that coincided with lightning. Other more noticeable examples were the constant motion of the waves, the glimmer of the moon who always wept for the sun, and the stars who ached to kiss her mortals. 
There are other constants, of course, but they are linked to everyday people, which make them all the more valuable, the more sought of. Dreamers deemed love as a constant, cynics thought better ― differently. 
Chat Noir was a dreamer whose dreams consisted of smooth skin, masks barred and a beautiful name scrawled in calligraphy. They were tinted with the smooth polished tone of midnight, a little reckless, a lot careful. 
His love for Ladybug was a constant, his adoration never to waver, a circle with hardly any breaking points. 
Marinette, on the other hand, experienced love as a constant, very akin to the permanent rotation of the planets she could count, from her parent’s warm suffocating hugs to her friend’s husky giggles to jokes she had long forgotten. 
Missing Chat Noir ― her partner, her incredibly loyal yet stupid , stupid partner ― was a constant. 
He was everywhere in ways she could hardly take time to understand, sometimes. Some days, she would pass by a building and remember screaming his name when he took a hit for her. 
Other times she would pass by an ice cream shop and wonder if Chat went out to eat with his friends? Surely he must have, the friendly boisterous boy she believed him to be. What was his favorite ice cream flavour? Was her minou a fan of the summer, or the winter? 
And, then she would come home and scroll through Tumblr, laugh at a meme of a cat with frosting on his snout and wish, wish more than anything she could send it to Chat. 
Perhaps, that was the problem. Somehow, despite all her insistence, her partner who might have just hung her the stars and moon, secured a prominent place in her heart, and was reluctant to leave. She caught herself stumbling, barely blushing when Adrien caught her, and creating a folder ― the Chat Folder ― of screenshots, gifs and videos that were rubbish really, but granted to make Chat smile. 
They were friends, more than anything and his smile, mon dieu , Marinette thought he could revive the whole world with that smile. The bravado he wore quickly melted when she let him rant about Harry Potter, or about anime, and the excitement in his tone was contagious. 
Dawn, no matter how glorious it had the tendency to become, with its hues of gold and blue, the very setting of a Shakespearean play commencing the start of a new day, trilling with the thrumming of sparrows, did not command her favorite part of the day anymore for that award was reserved to patrols with Chat. 
Marinette might have been the most tired human on the planet, but Ladybug thrived in the spotlight. 
Sprawled on a random rooftop, and laughing till their throats hurt, Marinette could easily forget that they were superheroes, but simply humans. Chat was just Chat, her best friend who she might have met at a coffee station or screamed with at the pinnacle of a roller coaster. She entertained the idea that he was in her class, her partner who sniggered with her and told her stupid chemistry jokes. 
And, while she wouldn’t change her life for the world, she envied a universe where her person had met a boy who would gradually become the sole most important person in her universe, just because and not because two teenagers were tied together to fight a terrorist attacking the city, a world where if she closed her eyes and thought of Chat, she would only marvel at his kind eyes, an unfailing compassionate heart. 
In this world, Marinette dreamed of that along with his blood soaking her skin, like tattoos she could never rid herself of. 
She had nightmares where she was a second too slow, sometimes her yo-yo ― designed to work efficiently ― simply failed, Hawkmoth would win and in all of them, she would lose Chat. 
She missed her chaton, more than he could ever hope to know, and this was all so lame because she saw him yesterday . Even when she was with him, her heart ached pathetically and she ― foolishly, if anything ― noticed her throat burn the very moment she swung away from him. 
It was a universal fact of life, a constant if you will, that Marinette was hopelessly in love with Adrien Agreste, the epitome of sunshine and boundless stretches of sunflowers in a meadow. He was the reason her heart collapsed and seized, inspired the nausea that threatened to overtake her, the good kind of sickness that the infatuated receive at the sight of their loved ones. 
Yet, there was an irreplaceable bond between her partner and her, an incomparable one that she prized above all others. Chat was her best friend, the yin to her yang. nothing less, nothing more. 
Perhaps, she might have been dramatic but Chat and her created memories that she would never allow herself to forget, ones that would sustain the crushing momentum of time and war. They were practically ingrained in her DNA, at this point, and she frequently walked through those memories during particularly bad days. 
There were bizarre moments that popped up during the day, for example his wince as Zeus struck the heavens with his bolt, a collection of coloured green, reflecting starlight peering at her under a cone of ice cream, his yawn under the faint glow of the setting sun, beautiful raw organic moments of human life. 
How could she compare the boy with sunshine in his eyes to the one with moonlight in his?
They both held her heart, a precious little thing that was ready to shatter at a moment's notice. The statement held neither drama nor significance if one merely considered the importance of each boy in her life.

@theactivistnetwork event 01: climate change 
Some (Not So Well Known) Tips On Helping The Environment
Instead of using paper to write to-do lists and discarding them, download an app such as Tasks! It saves paper and is easily accessible. 
For shower lovers, using a bucket and a jug might be hard at first, but it’s a great way to track the amount of water you use and less water used helps the environment!
Try switching to more sustainable alternatives for pads and/or tampons. Examples include menstrual cups, reusable period undergarments, etc. 
Get yourself an actual water bottle, instead of purchasing a plastic bottle or two every morning at the local store. 
Invite your friends to a hang out where you can clean your local beach or the park.

What can you do to save the Amazon Forest?
Spread awareness. Stay on top of this story, post about it on your story, tell your friends, reblog posts on Tumblr. This devastation is hardly getting the media coverage it deserves.
Support the indigenous people of Amazon, in whatever way you can. 
Vote for leaders who believe climate change is real, and that immediate action is required. 
Be an intelligent consumer, and stop supporting organisations that benefit from the loss of this forest. 
Donate. Provided here are some organisations that you could donate to. Charities like Amazon Conservation Association, Amazon Conservation Team,  Amazon Watch,  Rainforest Foundation US,  Rainforest Trust,  Rainforest Action Network are other examples. 
Volunteer. Contact the charities above and ask them what you can do to help. 
Sign these petitions. (x) (x) 
According to this website, here are some ways you can help:
Donate to Rainforest Action Network to protect an acre of the Amazonian rainforest.
Donate to the Rainforest Trust to help buy land in the rainforest. Since 1988, the organization has saved over 23 million acres and counting.
Reduce your paper and wood consumption. Double-check with Rainforest Alliance that what you're buying is rainforest-safe. You can also purchase rainforest safe products from the alliance's site.
The World Wide Fund for Nature works to protect the countless species in the Amazon and around the world.
Ecosia.org is a search engine that plants a tree for every 45 searches you run.  
Donate to Amazon Watch, an organization that protects the rainforest, defends indigenous rights and works to address climate change.
Donate to the Amazon Conservation Team, which works to fight climate change, protect the Amazon and empower indigenous peoples.
Amazon Conservation accepts donations (which can be tax deductible) and lists exactly what your money goes toward. You can help plant trees, sponsor education, protect habitats, buy a solar panel, preserve indigenous lands and more.
Contact your elected officials and make your voice heard.
According to this website, here are some other ways you can help:
Support arts, science, and other projects that raise awareness about the Amazon through the Amazon Aid Foundation.
Help protect animals living in the jungle with WWF.
Reduce your beef consumption. Rainforest beef is typically found in fast-food hamburgers or processed beef products.
If you’re in a position to help protect the rainforest on a macroscale, Foreign Policy argues that one of the most powerful tools for protecting the region is to work with businesses rather than against them. This is particularly effective in the beef industry, because as Foreign Policynotes, domestic meat producers in Brazil work with international companies that “are committed to zero-carbon standards, in principle” and are more susceptible to public outcry than Bolsonaro. They suggest that trade, distribution, and financing deals that are dependent on protecting the rainforest and sustainability can be a boon to the planet and to Brazilians who depend on the rainforest for their livelihoods.

Idk how true it is but its better to be safe than sorry so please spread this in hopes that this reaches to women of Kashmir :
If you are a woman in Kashmir PLEASE stay safe and secure because (even if might just be false scares) there have been news of hindu extremists in and muslim extremists groups in Kashmir planning mass abuse/sexual abuse attacks on Muslim women and hindu women respectively in Kashmir as a way to "" hurt"" the honour of their men which has been a common occurrence throughout history everytime something as sensational as this has happened (eg : India and pakistan split which was followed by mass rapes of both hindu and muslim women by extremists etc) so please be careful and safe!! I can't post the screenshots bc the posts of those extremist groups were taken down and again idk how reliable they are and it could be a way to spread false scares but still its not unlikely that something like this would happen so just be aware and safe!!
