nanami kento who has a piano in his apartment, but you never thought he could play it. it just sits there and collects dust for months and months, nothing more than a shelf for his paperwork.
you tease him and tell him he should learn if he’s going to have such an expensive piece of furniture. he just smiles indulgently and says nothing.
but when you’re sleeping over at his place more than your own, and all your things find their way in his closet, and you tell him your life felt so colorless before he was a part of it…
you wake up one morning to the most beautiful piece of music you’ve ever heard, and it takes you so long to realize it’s him.
and he smiles at you softly and keeps playing as you walk towards the sounds in nothing but his button-up, the windows open with a soft breeze. his hands fly across the keys easily, fingertips gentle as he moves an octave higher.
it brings tears to your eyes because he loses himself in the music, and you don’t think you’ve ever seen him so peaceful before.
because for years, he made himself believe there was no worth in dedicating so much time to a hobby that would lead to nothing. not when he could work harder at things that could bring in a profit, even if it was killing him.
he realizes, now, why he’s been looking for you for his entire life. you’re his muse, the one that just needed to remind him that anything that brings him joy is never a waste of time.

Bro, now I just wanna see the Mud Dogs reunite with Raph after years sobbing and hugging!
found family reunions are the best kind of reunions, especially when one of them has changed drastically
(I've gotta make a masterpost for this au with all these reunion doodles, lol)

@casualavocados and i had spent the past week being incredibly suspicious of mr sit because he seemed to be everywhere with akk and ayan
But it didn't seem likely that he was behind the curse or the account. So what were we missing?
Well, look at the conversation Ayan had with him about Dika
He was suspicious of Ayan asking questions, unwilling to say anything until Ayan clarifies that he already knew Dika.
He knows stuff, likely more than we've seen even. But he keeps his mouth shut.
Anyway, he does know a lot. And we should probably listen to what he has to say. So what does he talk about? Chadok and Dika.
And this is important because this establishes Chadok as the unreliable narrator I suspect him to be.
His version of events is that he was soft for Dika from the beginning. Not that it changes anything about what happened afterwards, but it is important to me that the version of events Chadok is telling us is the one that makes him seem just the slightest bit more sympathetic.
I just think it's important to keep in mind that no matter how much he may regret what happened now, Chadok is not a sympathetic character and I appreciate The Eclipse so much for making sure to highlight that. That you can have a tragic story but not be sympathetic.
Even at his most sympathetic Chadok is a pathetic man.
I wrote these tags last week. And once again he made the same choice. He has had chance after change and opportunity after opportunity to stop, to get away. And each time, he chooses to stay. To indoctrinate kids and hold late night candle circle induction ceremonies (keep in mind, Dika was around when Akk was inducted) and uphold Suppalo over everything else.

His tomorrow never came, and when she saw him next, he lay there looking so serene and noble, it seemed as if it must be well with him, for all the pain was past; temptation ended; doubt and fear, hope and love, could no more stir his quiet heart, and in solemn truth he had gone to meet his Father, and begin again.
- Rose in Bloom by Louisa May Alcott

if it wasn't obvious from all the reblogs, i just got done watching the special and i can't lie i really loved it. it was like the perfect balance of cheesy and silly and serious and even a little cringy but i really enjoyed it.
what i HATED though, was whatever bs that was with the sonic making screens and force fields, like excuse me?? that's literally not what the sonic is for like that seemed so wild and honestly straight from a bad fanfic.

Seven Sentence Sunday
Managed to make a good bit of words yesterday for ye old WIP. Here’s some of them 💙
I love you too. Wouldn’t miss it he sends back, smiling and tossing the phone on the now neatly made bed before seeking out his son.
Christopher is already seated at the kitchen table with sugary, marshmallow cereal and a glass of orange juice. He’s wrapped in his fuzzy robe, wearing the stripey blue pajamas. Eddie’s heart cracks open the tiniest bit when Chris grins up at him, and all he can see is echoes of his little boy, feet dangling above the floor, surrounded by stray Rice Krispies and Cheerios spilled out of a favorite bowl decorated with planets and rocket ships.
“Are you okay, Dad?” Chris asks, tilting his head.
Eddie crosses the short distance to press a kiss to Christopher’s curls. “Yeah, buddy. I’m good.”
Tagging @shortsighted-owl @alysiswriting @stereopticons @blackandwhiteandrose @apothecarose @jesuisici33 @rmd-writes @ajunerose @alyxmastershipper @elvensorceress @fatedbuck and a very open invitation to anyone wanting to share what they’re working on
