Sometimes,  Finn  made  things  incredibly  difficult.  He'd  always  been  one  to  keep  things  close  to  his  chest,  to  distance  himself  from  everyone  else  and  confide  only  in  himself.  .  .  Bryn  related  but  hated  being  on  this  side  of  things.  Brows  furrow  as  she  watches  him  hang  his  jacket  up,  gaze  brushing  over  him  as  though  she  can  decipher  what's  going  on  just  from  his  movements. Right  hand  clutches  the  glass  in  her  hand  tightly,  taking  a  large  sip  before  dignifying  him  with  a  response. 
"  So-  "  she  responds  calmly  but  tightly,  finding  his  almost  confirmation  to  be  nothing  but  irritating  at  best.  "  I  would  like  to  help.  "  gaze  softens  as  she  steps  forward,  placing  a  hand  on  his  shoulder.  "  Tell  me  what's  going  on,  let  me  help  you.  "

you could do this without me. / shilah
the bear.
they don't say much. it's hard to keep up a conversation when there is so much that they cannot say. she doesn't hold it together in the same ways that he hides it and the one person that puts those pieces back together isn't there to make things right. but there was a before, in all of this; there was a time when it was the two of them. younger, fumbling, and maybe not fully whole, but always repairing.
she has snapped at him today. has pushed him away, has kept him far, has drawn a line and not let him pass. her anger at the situation was at over its limit. still, she comes to him in the early morning hours, crawling under the covers and reaching a hand across the mattress, waiting. ( the same thing he used to do, a small act, reaching back out. )
their fingers find each others. the silence, the night, the quiet. her voice breaking it. you could do this without me.

he squeezes her hand. he knows that she feels it; at every moment there is something good, another thing is there to snatch it away. and that, of course, there is some kind of blame falling on her. " why would i want to? " he scoots closer. " -- i couldn't. not now. "

i will say is seeing people unironically go 'gale's arc is about how bad he is at communicating' is just the funniest fucking thing i have read in my entire life and i haven't laughed that much at something since the early access conspiracy theories

When people remain so hard on Gale for 'still talking' about Mystra, it's just.....ohhh boy. Of all the main cast, Gale's definitely one (alongside Wyll) whose relationship with their authority figure, abuser, manipulator, keeper, however you want to call them, is routinely discredited. Their abuses aren't digestible enough. Isn't 'sympathetic' enough. Shadowheart and Astarion have clear overbearing abusers with exceedingly evil personalities. It's apparently 'easier' for some people to show compassion to a victim's hurts if they've the physical scars to prove it, if their abuser fits every bill of a sadist without any effort to hide said sadism. But show Gale, a man who looks older than essentially the whole party, who was with Mystra who appears younger, speaks in a polite/levelled tone, who was 'simply upset' with Gale for 'disrespecting her boundaries', and Gale just becomes...the hung up ex who fumbled a baddie. Y'know, barring the fact that she knew of him and very likely kept eyes on him as a boy, had never actually told Gale the book he was looking for was Karsite in nature, left him to die alone, then came back and said, 'hey, I'll forgive you if you literally blow yourself up by SINKING A DAGGER STRAIGHT INTO YOUR CHEST when I have every ability to remove the orb myself.' Barring, too, that beyond his lover, she was his GODDESS, a goddess who controlled his fealty and commanded his utmost devotion, he being Gale Dekarios, a mortal, human man who was undoubtedly manipulated. Being with someone like that will destroy anyone's reality. He scrabbled for any sort of approval from a far more powerful figure. Many victims of abuse do.
But hey. And don't get me started on Wyll. Man literally made a pact to save others, sacrificed his freedom for the benefit of all, and ended up hard leashed by a literal devil. A devil! Goddddd. Also iffy that Wyll had no agency to make his decision with his pact in act 3 while barrly having any lines to speak of, and how Gale is encouraged to apologize and make amends with Mystra for his character arc. Hmm.

[Paraphrasing the question] Now that Kaladin is functionally a lighteyes and Moash is functioning fully as a villain, are we going to get another character who will be a dark eyed/low class character critiquing the political/social system?
Sanderson [paraphrasing]: I’ve been looking at whether Lift can justifiably fill that role as someone who considers herself an outsider even among the Radiants. But RAFO until after book 5

I am just SO tired of all the hate and insane conspiracy theories against this movie. It’s just a fun little nod back to the classic Disney movies. You all just hate joy.

Bryn  nods  in  acknowledgment,  she  could  have  been  truthful  with  her  sister,  perhaps  even  should  have  but  if  there  was  one  thing  Bryn  disliked  immensely,  it  was  the  thought  of  being  perceived  as  weak.  She  purses  her  lips,  considering  how  to  handle  this  conversation.  The  truth  was  out  now,  there  was  no  denying  that.  "  I  wanted  to  fix  it  myself,  "  she  admits,  somewhat  reluctantly.  "  I  spent  the  best  part  of  a  thousand  years  doing  just  that,  it  becomes  a  habit  after  a  while,  one  that's  hard  to  break.  "  she  doesn't  want  to  admit  how  hard  it  was  to  come  to  her  sister  for  help.
If  only  because  she'd  been  stuck  between  a  rock  and  a  hard  place.  If  she  hadn't  told  her,  Freya  would  have  found  out  sooner  or  later,  just  not  by  her,  and  that  would  have  made  everything  worse.  There's  another  pause,  brows  furrowed  as  she  fights  the  words  that  roll  off  her  tongue.  "  Asking  for  help,  it's  not  easy  for  me  Freya.  "

he doesn't know how to tell ben. how the best way would be to tell him. his husband isn't dumb, he'll definitely start noticing, soon. and also wondering why he wasn't wearing his leather jacket, as much. or drinking. has half a mind to take one of the small child toys, he'd made for sprout, and put it on ben's pillow, as a hint.
there's also another thing, he has to tell him, besides all of this. about....his time, at sea. aboard a real, actual pirate ship. about his relationships there....and what, or rather, who, came from them. now's as good'a time as any, brewster. ben's yours, now. you gotta be able to tell him these things.
caleb opted to wait until dinnertime. that way, he knows that if ben gets upset, it wouldn't be on an empty stomach. he's glad it was proper stew, this time, and not the bread and beans that they'd had for nigh on a week, now. the light of the fire lit up his face, and bens; he looks at it for a moment, empty bowl still in hand.
free hand rises up to grab the gold wedding band on a chain around his neck; squeezing it and sliding it around, a bit, for confidence. or maybe as a reminder.
❝ hey, tallboy. i, uh---gotta tell ya, somethin'. somethin'....i probably should'a told ya 'while ago, but----didn't know how t'bring up. ❞
@pyratezlife knows what this is. also anne istg if you stop your work to reply to this im disowning u

@musesreunite continued from here "But, I don't want you to get hurt." Rawya stared at the Doctor with a sad glance. She didn't realize it, but tears were filling her eyes. "If they know you're a Time Lord like me, they'll come after you. If anything happens to you, I'll never forgive myself. I already lost my mother. I can't lose you too."
The Doctor looks at Rawya with a concerned expression. She wants to comfort the younger Time Lady. Of course, she can't guarantee any outcome. But she does want to stop Rawya's tears. "Ya won't lose me. I'm good at surviving, me. Always have been." She puts her hands on Rawya's face, doing her best to wipe the tears away as she stares into the younger woman's eyes. "I don't want to see you get hurt either. Okay?"
Tumblr media
She caresses Rawya's cheeks with her hands, hoping to provide some comfort. "I'll be right back, I will. And then we'll go somewhere nice. How about that?"
