#a place where time stands still

Yukine's journey toward acceptance of the life that was robbed of him, this time with finality, exemplifies the emotional and beautifully rendered arc that has defined his character.

Yukine finally accepting the reality of his death. Yukine stepping out from the fridge that contained memories of what was once his life. Yukine freeing himself from the shackles of his trauma. Yukine running to protect the person who cherished him the most in the world. Yukine standing up to an abusive father. Yukine wholeheartedly apologizing. Yukine's growth, and Yato tearing up as he stretches his little arms to pull him for an embrace.

Yukine's gratitude for what Yato did for him is evident throughout the series. He was given a name more precious than any other. He was treated like a human--an ordinary teenage boy. And life after that was one exciting journey after another. Now, Yukine can no longer be entirely consumed by the horrors of his past because he knows that his reality with Yato is so much brighter. Far brighter.

Yukine could break out from that refrigerator because of the true, sincere, and nurturing love shown by the only father figure in his life. Yato has said multiple times throughout the series that Yukine was his priority above all else, and Yukine was the only person he swore to protect the most. Hell, he even went straight to hug him after Yukine apologized for turning into that form! Yato did not need to summon Yukine. Yukine came to protect Yato on his own decision. As he always did.

The journey to their healing will be painful, and this chapter shows that Yato and Yukine will face it together. No more secrets and no more miscommunications. They will help and be by each other's side as they always have, not only as god and shinki but, this time, as family.

"I will not let him die. Not Yato. No matter what happens... I swear I won't let anyone take him from me!" -Yukine, Noragami Vol. 17 Chapter 67.

#noragami manga #noragami 104.2 #ah yes i've finally calmed down #i am still however sad as fuck but at the same time relieved #my boys have reconciled and i look forward to the yato and yukine duo once again :') #i was rereading my fave chapters and i missed seeing them in battle TOGETHER #hopefully we get that next chapter when they completely annihilate father <3 #i love them so much and i love this series sm #i will never shut up abt them man. their father and son dynamic is one of the best and i will stand by this till the day i die #i remember a post i made abt hoping yukine's life w yato will outweigh the grief of his past #and it did :'))))) it really did. yukine realized that himself and now he is back with yato #he is back by yato's side. the place where he rightfully belongs #i'm so emotional rn holy shit i've had this chapter dominate my head for the whole day today #anw WAR IS OVER LADIES Yukine has come back home 😭🫶 #noragami #noragami spoilers #yukine #yato #mine

One thing about 87!Donatello's occasional desire to be a normal turtle is, it's worrying, but it's not suicide adjacent the way it would be for any other Donatello.

The context in which he starts to think about it is one where they've pursued a newly mutated sumo gerbil (yes, seriously) back to the petshop where it was trying to break in so it could "go home". When the unstable mutation wears off it's happy to be shut back in its cage and Donatello thinks he recognises the petshop as the one where the turtles were originally sold.

For the gerbil being given sudden sapience isn't a gift or the beginning of its existence as a person, it's a weird and scary thing that left it adrift in a world it didn't understand and that didn't understand it. Having it wear off is a happy ending. After all, if a human was turned into a dragon and given massively expanded intelligence, a thousand year lifespan, and the power of flight and fire, but still wanted to go back to being human that would be understandable.

Donatello remembers being a turtle - his sense of his own identity doesn't start with sapience - so seeing another animal unmutate and be happy when he's unhappy with nearly but not quite fitting into the human world makes him thoughtful.

There's still a lot he does and enjoys that a turtle couldn't do! And most of the time (such as when being threatened with de-mutation by Shredder) he doesn't want to go back to being a helpless turtle. But there is that lingering feeling that he might fit into the world better (and be liked by humans better) if he was simply a turtle they could keep as a pet.

#87 turtles #something there that's not #what if I didn't exist #but what if I was less #smaller #less smart #quieter #Donatello already tries a lot of the time to soften himself #he talks gently and is still often too blunt #because he doesn't know which things about what he says are upsetting #so maybe being a cute pet is the ultimate softening? #but then when he daydreams about a society of turtle people instead of being an animal #he thinks of them being able to 'stand tall' #...so I guess that's a sign Splinter redirected him in a healthier direction? #a place where he can be himself instead of a himself that he can be here without censure

there’s usually a q&a section in the hypster magazine where the cast are asked a question and the recent volume had them answer what do they do to relieve stress and tbh bat’s has been on the mind lately lol:

📿: he responded by saying that’s a stupid question since he couldn’t call himself a monk if allowed stress to build up. but if there’s a situation that he has no control over, he goes to surround himself in nature

🌙: he likes weeding the family garden!!! it helps him clear his mind and forget about the things that were bothering him and it makes his family happy to see the garden looking pretty too!!

⚖️: he finds a place where there’s nobody around to scream with all his might. it’s a great feeling since you don’t often get the chance to let out as loud as possible

#this is vee speaking #i’m glad kuukou finds solace from inevitabilities with his hobby #but it kinda makes his dislike for the ocean stand out even more ngl lol #and that scene in the six colours track where he spawns in the middle of jyushi and hitoya’s conversation #he happened to be on a morning walk lol but what if he was walking off something like jyushi was and convinced hitoya to do lol #idk if jyushi has a green thumb but this isn’t the first time jyushi’s weeding hobby has come up and i still think it’s cute he has it lol #that old theory that doppo and jyushi are related has inadvertently been getting a lot of food lately lol #jyushi also likes taking care of plants and he and doppo have the same sense of humour lmao brothers from other mothers lol #the part of me that always clowns hitoya lol #is imagining hitoya in place of troy bolton from that one hsm number where he’s yelling alone in his high school LOL #like he does his little step twirl move and falls to his knees screaming lmao #the other part of me wants to baby him is in shambles lol but happy he doesn’t keep it bottled up 🥲 #he and doppo would have a blast together i think lmao

the major appeal of the Corn Maze is tapping into the human experience of Being Surrounded By Maize During Harvest . i love you corn and i love walking in circles under an autumn sun while you rustle gently and smell exactly as you always have for the past many hundreds of years at this same time in this same spot. effervescent

#i love where i live. at all times of the year there's always some ancient simple thing that direct-hits the timeless human experience button #me in the wintertime: wow for thousands of years we have huddled in shelters and put wood on the fire and thought about spring #me in the spring: wow for thousands of years someone has gone out and tapped the first tree of the season and saved up the sap #me in the summer: wow for thousands of years somebody has weeded squash here. beans even #me in the fall: i have GOT to be surrounded by corn so i can feel exactly the way im supposed to at this time. in this place #like it's not my ancestral experience. im not from here. we were in abruzzo until like eighty years ago. they dont have corn there #but at this time in this place there is corn and there has always been corn in this place. and i get to experience that. how COOL #at this time in this place there are maple trees and eastern white pines and there have been those trees #since as long and longer as there have been humans to look at them here. how COOL #harvest technology changes. populations change peacefully and then forcefully . the climate changes and is changing now #but for now. and for a time before me. there's corn here. and everyone who was here walked around in the corn #and if we are lucky then five hundred years from now someone can still plant and stand in and listen to the rustle of the corn

There's something very romantic about the outdoors...

#thinking abt how theres this specifc place near my house where i always go to take pics of the sky #and i probably have at leats one photo 'session' from every week(well every wk i was at home this yr lol) #and its always like a painting to me #it doesnt matter how many times i go there #every single time im astounded by it #and its nothing special but the sky is so vast and magnificent #and the colors are always great #even if its not near sunset or sunrise its still beautiful #and during the summer im nocturnal so i always run down there at the crack of dawn to take pics 😭 #but now i take a lot of the sunset or pre-sunset ig #qnd even just mid day is pretty... #and right now theres geese migrating all the time but especially at this time of day #so going and standing there at staring at the sky and hearing the geese and going numb from the cold #its just...romantic to me ig #maybe i will edit smth w all my pics at the end of the yr FOR ME #but i took some vids of the geese flying across the blue and pink sky and it was all very picturesque #blah blah blah i am very sentimental and if i could take pics of eveyrthing i would 🥺 #mayhe one day ill buy an actual camera lol #catie.rambling.txt

idk if disability services are just as shitty in japan as they are in the states but imagine izaya having to deal w that shit. did you know wheelchairs have to be custom made otherwise they can hurt? imagine izaya having to deal w that system. imagine him having to wait god knows how long for his shit to be made and then given to him. imagine him dealing w doctors not believing he needs the things he needs because he's "too young to be disabled," and how harsh of a blow that'd be for him at ALL. imagine him having to deal w bullshit for any other mobility aids or medicines he might need. imagine how out of control hed feel over his own health and his basic movement. imagine.

#Jesus fucking Christ #why do some people just. not see the mess they’re making and acknowledge that it’s their responsibility to clean up after themselves?? #like. you throw your shoes in the entrance exactly where people walk. you let shared loafers stand outside for several hours #you cook the most simple dinner that one time you cook (mind you the other people have equal shares of making food) #and yet you don’t even manage to clean up after neither the cooking NOR taking the food off the table into the fridge so it doesn’t turn bad #you keep on taking the most easy solution that fits you the best without thinking about others. in a space where we all are exhausted #and I’m so done with it for now tbh. how lazy to not care about the bare necessities for others. how rude to admit to it #AND on top of this. you’ll tell stuff about your country that’s *objectively horrifying* and then add on to that that you love your country #it’s just. so many things. are so so so much of what I’d avoid in a person. a few things is fine. no one’s perfect. but damn there’s a limit #SORRY to anyone who’s read this far but I just. had to get it out #this guy is the one I’m working the closest with these two and a half weeks. hes still a kid kind of.

[opalthea]

also, hello padisarah nonnie !! it's good to see you again :>

i decided to not answer your ask regarding the wholeeee stuff.. because i don't really care what they want to do anymore. i've done my part of speaking up about their behaviours and calling them out - which made a lot of people open their eyes for once instead of ignoring the warnings they got from me or other people. and i think that's all i want to do.

THIS WILL FORMALLY BE THE LAST POST ABOUT THEM. I will not answer any asks regarding it anymore, so if you want to make your own posts regarding those users, please use your own platforms, thank you.

as much as i encourage speaking up, i also don't want to give a flying duck about them anymore. y'know, like, i spoke up because i couldn't tolerate them and their behaviours anymore - couldn't just keep quiet when my mutuals are knowingly or unknowingly talking to shitty people like that. if they started a new blog, just let them. i don't really care anymore 😭 all i hope is that my mutuals and those that see this are more aware of internet safety and who you surround yourself with. it was already exhausting trying to warn others about them and not being listened to until i made this shit public — i'm not going to start becoming a blog that runs on discourse just so some can finally realise that this person was shitty and that person was the devil.

thanks for also caring abt me and informing me of their new url, i appreciate that a lot! it's on my blocklist now + the mutuals they've tagged on that post too 💀 if, however, i blocked you without a good reason why, or if i blocked you before you knew of this and had already cut ties with them, feel free to send me a message or ask on a different blog! i took precautionary blocks when it comes to having those kind of people as mutuals so .. yeah.

#visitors from teyvat : padisarah anon #thea answers #the post was made because i just couldn't stand the audacity of certain people still claiming to be the victim. #imagine claiming yourself as the victim when your story wasn't even straight. #venting in public but you can't even pick a plot. were you banned or did you leave willingly first without being punished? #then proceeded to say you were wrongly banned when you were literally guilttripping the mods . what did you think- #was gonna happen when you come back? did you think our arms were open then? #you left first . to avoid consequences . now that the consequences are staring right at you #you chicken out? you curse at the effects of your actions? YOUR actions? what about the people you've affected . #you say you aren't the same person you are a year ago but you only left a few months ago and you still affect the mental health of many . #our server wasn't even a mental health server. it's a positivity server. you're supposed to use it to get serotonin boosts #or boost other people. not a place for us to be your therapists and fix your problems. #i still can't get over the fact that neither of them can get their stories straight. wdym a year ago lmao. it was literally 4-5 months ago. #and you still act the same as ever. venting about how you wanted to kys or break down when a damn post unrelated to you talks- #-abt ur fav character in a scenario where they don't love you. #do you realize that the artists and writers' works you consume are for the general and not just you. what is your logic . #and i know you see this . you vague about us all the time. did you think i didn't notice. #the only mercy i've granted you was the peace for 4 months. you tell me i was dogpiling on you but you didn't change at all . so entitled t #-your ways of thinking and what you think is right. #in the first few weeks of u in that server i was the only one who thought better of u. funny how that turned out. #cuz u didn't change then and you wouldn't change now. #idk how many times i hv to repeat this but i blocked each n every ONE of them. including their moots. #and including anyone who interacted with them. im not sorry. if you were wrongly blocked then u can shoot a dm. #otherwise stay blocked and stay mad loser L.

#like in general #but also last weekend was literally like a skins episode what the fuck im still processing it #we went to see a football match #then spent over an hour getting back to our dorms on foot bc the trams were packed #we were JUST abt to reach the dorm building byt there were these 3 guys standing and they were like #'hiii girls look we reallyREALLY urgently need to get to the club but we re too drunk to call for a taxi wchi means you gotta walk us there #so we were like no fucking way obv we didnt know them AND THEN WENT WITH THEM ANYWAY #we stopped by this one place where young ppl usually meet up to drink bc our friend was partying there #drank her beer lool the boys convinced their friend to go with us qnd this girl turned out to be our mutual friend which is jdjeisbwjkw #so anyway on our way to teh club theres fierworks and ppl shouting celebrating the match we watched #we get to the club we get drinks we start dancing #THE GUY WHO I WENT OUT WITH ONCE AND WHOS OBSESS3D WITH ME BUT NOW PRETENDS I DONT EXIST IS IN THE VERY SAME CLUB AT THE SAME TIME #man #thinks get heated between me and one of these guys we just met #long story short we made out (s&m by rihanna in the background) #at like 3am we left the club and got back and i was glad to finally go to sleep BUt my friend just had to mention that she had whiskey #so we stayed up till 6am in front of our dorm building drinking and being stupid in general #ive got photos of me braiding one of the guys hair and laying on teh ground lol #so anyways #oh also one of the guys lost the fucking thingy ? they give you when youre leaving your stuff in the cloakroom or whatever #so while we were waiting for the cloakroom guy to return with his jacket he was like 'listen i lost the fucking thing #'the moment he returns with my jacket you grab it and we fucking run out of here you hear me?' #and we fucking did 💀 #most importantly i got told im a good kisser that night 💯💯💯 but still all that kissing and touching did nothing for me like i said #felt bad for the guy bc he was ..... hmmmmm eager and he was fukcing trying ok so i was out there fake moaning so he doesnt feel bad lol💀

[4giorno]

i got the cutscene <3

#its actually crazy that there was even more content i missed that impacted the story this much #like this rlly illustrated how even tho my character and astari0n have both become better people astari0n is still so behind in that #(we know why ofc. hes still acting like a feral cat trying to self preservere with teeth and nail and all until the very end; the ritual) #my character had his most obvious 'shifting point' at the transition from act 2 to act 3 #like he fully realized that this is now truly bigger than himself. he has left marks on the lands and he has to go all the way #he has made true friends. one of his best friends is the kindest most compassionate person in the world #and very importantly he loves astari0n and THAT is the reason he now feels this actual compassion towards the other spawn #hes so personally invested in this issue now #and he can say that 'the world can be a wonderful place if you find your home in it astari0n' bc its something he has just recently had #a personal revelation abt #and astari0n deflects it and describes my character as someone who now 'spends their life sorting out other peoples problems' #and it rlly brings it to focus that he just cannot meet him where hes at anymore #just great conflict that feels actually meaningful and perfectly fits into the roleplay storyline ive made for my character #and omg the line 'im doing this for you too you know. to make sure were both safe. forever' from astari0n is just AAAAAAHDJJDJD. CRAZY #bc we know how toxic he becomes towards you if he completes the ritual!!!!!! #HHHHH this character!!!!! hes just MWAH. perfection #i cant wait until i get to doing the szarr palace again bc this added conflict will make the conclusion of this quest even more satisfying #anyway TOTAL tonal shift time. in start of the cutscene astari0n is standing next to the bed my character was sleeping in #so i can now have the hc that some nights they sleep in the same bed <3 #(WELL. you know. my character sleeps while he meditates)

my future when it comes to still being Active on social media is teebeedee, but my main resolution for 2024 is like...be comfortable w/ being completely offline even if it's just for a day or a week.

#the good news is that i don't check sm during the am hours anymore (by that i mean like as soon as i wake up i still need to work #on being less online during the after hours aka anything later than 9-10pm ish) #BUT i've learned that being active hasn't made my ppl pleasing tendencies better and that there are many many things i need to like #work on far away from places like tumblr and The Big Four #(that being ig twitter still not calling it x fb and like...reddit #though tbf i haven't been ACTIVE active on twitter + fb for almost 4/5 years now so theres that #i still lurk the former when i'm feeling REAL bored but thats rare these days which is an improvement? #though i also have to work on doing shit that doesnt involve online brainrot 24/7 aka reading and writing and like...watching media that #isnt like...football (soccer 4 the us/canada/aus folks) #but lb ruined my love of film for a LONG long time bc it values getting the most pop review over idk actually loving movies #idk its just me rambling abt my relationship w/ sm and where it stands atm perdon sghdjfhj #the tl;dr is i need to shut up and log off when my body is telling me to stop gsbdhjfghjikejr #be quiet drea

listening to call your mom rn (god it feels wrong spelling it like that)

gripping u by the shoulders. this song is everything to me.

#OKAY STORYTIME THAT NO ONE ASKED FOR: #do u guys remember that girl that was basically my bi-awakening and we had the very stereotypical #intense homoerotic friendship that traumatised the both of us? yeah her #well basically i still have a lot of love for her and we're still friends like she's in my hometown friend group so when i talk about them #i still mean her and out of our entire group she's the ONLY one who didn't go to uni and me and my other friend spoke recently #about how unhappy we know she is bc she got abandoned by us in this awful hometown and we dont think she loves her boyfriend #so much as she stays with him bc she literally has no one else until we come home her life is literally just waiting for us between terms #and i worry about her all the time and one thing that happened a while back was she did drugs w this one guy by the river #and she completely whitied like it was just weed but she was 17 and had never done it before and turns out she's like me #where edibles just do NOT agree with her on a good day let alone when she took as much as she did and she was with a random boy #by the fucking WIER (basically a big dangerous waterfall) and we were all at our mate's house that was a 40 min walk away #and she RANG ME. i was the one she rang. that still sticks with me. and omg it was so scary bc she was so out of it on the phone #and all i managed to get from her was that Something Was Wrong (didnt know what) and that we needed to pick her up #so we did. we got on bikes and fucking RACED to this girl and we picked her up and in the end she asked for her mum #and i was the one to take her to her mum and knock on the door and stand there with her daughter's arm around my shoulder #barely conscious her sick on my shoes and explain what happened. like WHAT #& yeah basically i still have so much love for that girl and i know she struggles with shit hence why that even happened in the first place #and it's like. im still here. i still love you. i'll call your mum. i'll come and get you. just ring me and i'll pick up. stay on the line. #so yeah this song did unimaginable damage the first time i heard it. literally gives me chills and transports me to my 17 year old self #we were young and didnt know what we were doing and the town was suffocating us #AND WE WERE BOTH DROWNING AND DIDNT KNOW HOW TO SAVE EACH OTHER BUT THERE WAS AN UNDERSTANDING THAT WE WERE DROWNING TOGETHER #ask #noah kahan

I NEED to update my Radiance's gijinka design I stg I have such cool art ideas for her and PK but I am. So lazy.

Two sides of the same coin, equally as awful morally grey people that would maul each other to death if put in the same room, I love them 💜

I need to also focus more on her role in my AU because while I've rewritten pretty much the entire thing she was left behind and now idk what to do with her in the long run oopsie. All ik is that she ends up being mortal or near mortal after her fight with Ghost and Flower and she is Not happy about it, but it's also the only way PK would have left her alive and Flower is big on second chances so now she's just here, bitter and angry and a shadow of her former self (and actually I just didn't have it in me to kill her before I could do something cool with her + I like the potential dynamic she could have with other characters)

#thylacines can talk #faaf au #dunno where to put her now. originally she was going to return to her moth tribe and i might. do that still. have her try to live as just a #part of her people? what do ya think? humbles her a lot over time id imagine. but at first she's furious #she DESPISES the entire Palelight family especially PK and the two of his spawn that did this to her. doesn't help that Flower likes to go #to the blue lake to relax and its worringly close to the resting grounds. might have to abandon that habit for a bit if a certain #malice-eminating moth finds out about it. hard to relax when theres an angry ex god glaring at you. looking as if theyre planning your #demise. ya know? #i like the scene where Flower takes her to the palace and they walk in on PK having a meeting with his court about possible solutions to the #plague. suddenly becomes most stressful meeting of his life <3 #pk: And what stops me from just killing you right now? | Radi: UH- #flower steps between them #Radi internally: Oh thank god they're this stupid #one of initial character traits of Radis was the fact she kept referring to Flower as PK's child and praising them and rubbing their #existence in his face. like in a 'oh you must be so proud' way. because she KNEW it made him feel awful and she took delight in it #couldnt give two shits about flower she just liked to use them as a poking stick on their father #theyd bicker so much it was funny #WL sarcastic: Oh. Great. Wonderful. Thanks for that. As if we didn't have enough on our heads. #Flower barely standing and bleeding all over the place: 👍

that post where it’s like “loving the character for the potential they had and not what the writers actually did with them” is me with adam from season 4 of buffy

#sophie.txt #btvs #HE COULD HAVE BEEN SO INTERESTING #that line in restless when buffy asks him what his names were and he goes 'before adam? not one of us knows' #IT MAKES ME INSANE OK #god they could have done SOOOOO much with him #but they brought him in too late to properly explore him #and imo they killed walsh off too early bcs he and riley both needed to grapple with their relationship w her more #and like....the stuff with riley being his 'brother' could have been SO INTERESTING #adam's best episode was literally his first one. where he's just loose and trying to learn about everything #that curiosity. that trying to make sense of where HE fits into the world....that was the most compelling he was #after that he was just another monster and UGH UGH UGH #he could have been so FASCINATING but they didn't give themselves TIME TO DO ANYTHING WITH HIM #and something something....him trying to find his place in the world could have parallelled the scoobies not knowing THEIR place this season #SO MUCH could have been done with it #actually you know what i'll say it adam could have been buffy's most fascinating villain if they'd given him time #i still love season 4 bcs the character stuff and the stand alone episodes are so so excellent but UGH #s4 of buffy would have been too powerful if adam had been well written

finished swtor update earlier today and im still thinking like. tavon gripping petra by the shoulders: do not trust the empire. do not fucking trust the empire. DO NOT fucking trust the empire.

#shitpost #he's standing there like. im not imperial. #(and he isn't. but so many people assume he is) #anyways. had a lot of absolutely fascinating interactions this update #tavon is like. trying to lie to krovos and petra was like NOOO and tavon is like #petra. they will not care. the ONLY person who will help you in this room. is me. now please. stop giving the empire information. #we need to keep them in the dark as much as fucking possible #tavon: lies about his intentions with sahar. #tavon's character development has just been a blast. its still so wild to me where he is now #like. he did end agent storyline in a very funky place with his loyalty #but like. the empire is a system he understands intrinsically while he's like. divorced from it in terms of his actual goals. #like. yeah the alliance is allied with the empire. but he has been and will continue to be alliance first #he does EVERYTHING he can to undermine the empire and the republic basically at all times. lmao

Tarot question, the high priestess!

The high priestess: what is your dream date?

Well, since it didn't say it had to be a first date I'm gonna say this would be with someone I've come to feel safe with but I'm still getting to know: we have a whole day set aside, and with a parameter of going at most maybe 2 hrs outside our city, we each pick a place that represents something abt the core of who we are. So I take them to the closest biggest body of water and tell them about growing up in Florida and how the ocean knows me in ways humans never can. Maybe they take me to a random town they've never been to before and we go antiquing bc they like seeing new places rather than old, and antiquing is what they did with their grandma growing up. Or, idk, they have us hike to the highest point within the radius and tell me how they like hikes with a challenge because when their legs burn and their heart rate increases they feel wild, like they belong there in the forest. And while we're driving we both play songs for each other that have meant something to us in our lives, taking turns, telling stories, their song reminds me of one from when I was 9 that I forgot existed, they haven't listened to this genre in ages and start remembering all the songs they used to love. When we get back to our city we get ice cream. I go home buzzing and dance around my apartment with my cats to one of the songs they shared.

#i thought deeply about this and cant tell you how perfect it sounds #maybe doing all that in one day would be a lot but the adventure of it is half the fun #we're on the way to my spot and i see a waffle house and im like. wait. detour. my mom thinks WH is the best restaurant in the u.s. #we get bad coffee and waffles and then when we're going to their spot we pass a sign for the town where weiner cars were started (idk) #and theyre like fuck we were gonna go hiking but i was obsessed w weiner cars as a kid. i dressed up as one for halloween when i was 7. #so we go nd take pictures w the OG weiner car and then they drive us around until we find an abandoned building w vines in the windows #and we sneak in and they tell me how they always wanted to be a ghost hunter and still kinda do so we try to hunt ghosts w/o getting tetanus #and so the day could go way off plan and it'd still be on plan #(we hold hands in the abandoned place but wont admit we were creeped out until we get back to the car) #(we take our shoes off and stand w our feet in the water and our shoulders touching and i say close your eyes nd breathe deep 3 times #and tell me what the water tells you) #(and they dont hesitate or look at me skeptically. the water tells them beautiful things its never told me.) #Charlie mail #me #anna tag
