Listen, this is the most badass boast anyone has ever made. There is no possible coming back from "put some flower seeds in your pocket so at least something beautiful will grow when you die." God bless this woman.

Thereās this girl at my school and sheās really nice and I remember sometime last year at one point she would carry a clicker around and click it everytime she had a happy thought/something good happened/she laughed etc.
It was always kind of cute how youād just hear the little click every once in a while throughout class it always made me smile knowing that it was bc something made her feel happy idk

Letās talk about Damenās grief (Part three)
(Part one, Part two)
Imagine losing your father, your lover, your brother, your country, and your kingdom, all one go. But then you never complain, just keep you grief in check, hope for the best, take it all in stride, etc. etc. (Part one and part two)
He falls in love, only momentarily, and then loses that too The second his identity isnāt an unacknowledged secret. He still gets used to having his heart ripped out and fights for his country.
Thatās Damen for you.
But then, he loses his son. Thatās when it all catches up to Damen. The unbearable losses, the lost family, being of every thing thatās his - family, dignity, identity, respect, a boyfriend, reputation, and then his son, his fucking son!!!! *wracking sobs* Itās too sad, the way he feels like he is being denied family. I like to think he thought of Laurent too when he said this. Itās the first time in the entire trilogy we see the depth of Damens grief. How he just sits there and recollects his fatherās last words, The way he describes his voice to be made of just breath (the pain of seeing someone you love fade away), devoid of his usual ādeep-timbreā, or that his fatherās hand was never going to be in his hair again. šššššššš Itās really the first time I saw Damen as a son needing his father, and not Damianos the prince killer Itās so painful, that Damen also thinks he is failing his father. Noooo, youāre not.
And above all of this, he is just crying. Poor babyšš„ŗ, itās going to be okay.ššš
Like, can someone just hug him. Oh wait, someone does. Laurent. Good job, blondie, finally.
It also makes sense that Damen just skips the small talk and abruptly says that his father is dead. Like he couldnāt go on pretending to not grieve his father. Like he wants Laurent to know how much his father means to him. The father Laurent hates. It makes so much sense, āTake me for who I amā - i.e. my fatherās son, your brotherās killer, a barbarian etc. etc. Laurent doesnāt want to do that ānowā I never understood what he meant by that. He meant he didnāt want to address the hatred (there was no denying it), or recollect how much he hurt Damen with words and actions, not in that moment, when Damen had been given more than he could take and he was aching for Damen too. Laurent wanted to comfort him and Damen was twisting the knife in his own stab wound, asking him to accept him for no he was. So much āØpaināØ. Fuck, fuck, fuccckkk. This whole exchange is angst af. But it starts making sense when you think about what Damen is going through.

the most fun thing about being a fic author is when you know whatās supposed to happen but when you go to write it you realise that, for the event to be plausible, you need to add another 2k of development and establish like six extra things before you can evenĀ get to the scene you need to write, and by āmost funā I mean fuck everything someone take this fucking story away from me Iām on strike

Friendly reminder that if you call Eastern Europeans āsnowflakesā for not laughing at your war memes, youāre not quirky, youāre just a fucking asshole.
And you donāt get to tell us to ātake a jokeā about a war that is happening few km from our borders (for non Ukrainians balkans).
If the war is not affecting you, your families, your friends or your other close ones, stop the ābut this is my coping mechanism š„ŗā bullshit.

I am watching a live Ukrainian news feed, and this beautifully turned-out young woman news anchor is announcing she is about to read out a recipe for the Molotov Cocktail right now. So people can make it and use it as the last line of defense.
My brain is short-circuiting. But also ā¦ yes.
