Walk with me:
Jaime Reyes is a desperate, desperate man for you. He’s trying not to let it show but Khaji-da spouting about his elevated heart rate in the forefront of his mind isn’t helping to calm his nerves.
It’s not like he hasn’t been here before, with you in his lap and his hands trying to carve out a place for him on your hips. It’s just that everytime he has you like this; breathless, eager, with roaming hands and a flushed face to go with it, it leaves him discombobulated. He doesn’t know how he got you here but he forgets all about it every time he feels your lips on his.
Evidently, you notice when his mind goes elsewhere. As if Khaji-da is speaking straight to you and you both are deliberating on what to do with Jaime, you break from the kiss and ask, “You ok? We can stop if you want-“
His mind jumps back in as soon as he hears the word stop, “What? Baby, I’m fine,” he smiles to show you that he is.
Realizing that maybe all he did was wander off, you smile too, “Pues pareces idiota. You’re just sitting there,”
He grumbles in a way to make you laugh, taking your giggles in his own lips and trying to keep them for himself, “You make me an idiot, that’s why.”

So. Um.
>Gerald mucked around with Shadow’s memories, hence why so much about what actually went down on the ARK and who Gerald and Maria were is up for interpretation
>Gerald created Shadow simultaneously to satisfy the government’s demands for a super weapon/Ultimate lifeform which he thought could also mitigate, if not cure, Maria’s illness
>It stands to reason that he intended for Shadow to mitigate her illness through chaos energy, hence why he literally exudes and expends so much of it that he requires inhibitors
>Maria’s illness is described as a neuro/immuno, as in issues with her immune system and tied into her brain
>Did... did Gerald tweak and manipulate Shadow’s memories through the use of chaos energy? Changing wavelengths and frequencies or some such?
>And... if so, is it possible that Knuckles might be able to restore Shadow’s memories, SA2 and prior, in full, using the Master Emerald?

Wolfrry got me bad
I read the first two chapters of Lupus Noctis by @avocadoguru and while I already poured my heart out to them in the tags my mind has never left the entire idea of werewolf harry in the last hours <3
See, the thing is I've been obsessed with wolves as a teenager and it's just been my weakness ever since. As I'm from Germany we have quite a number of medival fairs in our area with live bands and acts and there was one band that stuck with me over the years.
youtube
I can see that medival fairs and North American national parks might not have too much in common but the lyrics are just ON POINT for this fic (as far as I can tell rn)
See the lyrics in English and German below the cut and follow me into the rabbit hole my wolfs den :>
Durch berstend Venen rauscht, fiebrig heiß mein Blut Mein Blick verzehrt Dich gierig Doch verbrennt in süßer Wut -Was ist mit mir und meiner Lust? Ich folge Dir ganz unbewusst Weh mir, oh weh, oh weh,ich suche Deine Näh´ Ich suche Deine Näh´ Ich rieche Deinen Duft und spüre Deine Angst Mein Herz schlägt wild, Es sticht die Brust Wenn Du nach mir verlangst Und der Mond erleuchtet hell Die Nacht, sie wird zum Tag Und ein Rausch aus roter Quell In unseren Träumen lag Und wir waren wie ein Sturm Und flogen übers Land Leidenschaft und Schmerz Warn uns ewig eingebrannt Oh zitternd Körper wehr Dich nicht, solang Du es vermagst Ich still nur meinen Durst Meinen Hunger, der mich plagt Was ist mit mir und meiner Lust? Ich geb mich hin ganz unbewusst Weh mir, oh weh, oh weh, Dass ich nicht widersteh Dass ich nicht widersteh Leidenschaftlich fühlst Du Meinen Nackenbiss Ein Leben in Glückseligkeit Ist beiden nun gewiss Und der Mond erleuchtet hell Die Nacht, sie wird zum Tag Und ein Rausch aus roter Quell In unseren Träumen lag Und wir waren wie ein Sturm Und flogen übers Land Leidenschaft und Schmerz waren uns ewig eingebrannt
And for everyone keen on the English translation, I translated this more or less of the bat
Through bursting veins, my feverishly hot blood bursts My gaze consumes you greedily But burned in sweet rage -What is it about me and my lust? I follow you unconsciously Woe betides me(3x), if I'm trying to get close to you I'm trying to get close to you
I smell your scent and feel your fear My heart beats wildly, It stings in my chest When you demand for me
And the moon shines brightly Night becomes day And a roar of red waves (?? this is a tough one) lies in our dreams And we were like a storm And raged across the country Passion and pain Have been etched in our skin eternally Oh trembling body don't resist, for as long as you have the strength I only quench my thirst, my hunger that plagues me
-What is it about me and my lust? I follow you unconsciously Woe betides me(3x), if I'm trying to get close to you I'm trying to get close to you Passionately you feel me biting yor neck A life of peace and happiness is now of certainty
And the moon shines brightly Night becomes day And a roar of red waves (?? this is a tough one) lies in our dreams And we were like a storm And raged across the country Passion and pain Have been etched in our skin eternally
So yeah, kudos to you if you've read all the way to this point! Hope you enjoyed this bit of German culture and maybe see the parallels that I saw.
This was a nostalgic roller coaster ride and now that I've at least typed it out to send it into the void here I might be able to get some sleep :D
And also sorry to @gurugirl and @fkinavocado if this is absolutely not your vibe for the story, I just thought I'd share the madness that happened in my head this evening! Keep up the great work loves!!! <3

Leo's relationship with death
Leo really doesn't like to think about death.
I mean, we all saw how much impact Karai's death had on all of Mad Dogs but Leo was the only one that had to be dragged from her, yelling after her, he really, really didn't want to lose her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And I think when he lost her it left a deep scar.
I saw posts talking how Leo wants for things to get back to normal and pretend nothing happened, which I completely agree with. I think it's in big part because of his fear of repeating losing a close one.
He REALLY doesn't want to even acknowledge death.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here Raph seemed to be getting through to Leo-
Tumblr media
-but the moment he mentions possibility of his family dying?
Tumblr media
Nope, time to deflect, joke and feign ignorance.
Leo's aware that death is a big part of being a responsible hero and that's why he'd rather goof off with his brothers and not train.
Because obviously when you ignore something it just dissapears, right? So if they ignore severity of certain situations and possibility of dying it won't happen, right?
Tumblr media
If they don't treat it seriously they'll be fine! Totally!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then Raph shields Leo from the Krang and sends him away.
Tumblr media
And it's as if Karai's death stared right in his eyes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So Leo picks up the slack of leadership in order to save Raph. He behaves carelessly during this time but can you really blame him, he desperately wants to save his brother, to stop yet another family member from death that he is so scared of.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He still tries to be positive and nonchalant, that "pfff obvioulsy everything will turn out alright!" but at the end of the day, it's not that simple.
Tumblr media
Casey's speech had hard time to really hit Leo, he's still avoiding confronting resposibility, literally and metaphorically turning away from it. But the moment Casey says Leo's whole family died?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now that made an impact.
And every time his family is in terrible danger he looks absolutely terrified and basically every time Leo has to be dragged away to not just return and try to save them again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And when there's nobody to drag him away?
Tumblr media
First thing he does is sacrifice himself. Because I don't think Leo is scared of his own death, or at least he is not as scared of him dying as his family. He'd rather give away his life than live through another grief.
Obviously I'm not sayin that the rest of the fam isn't terrified of close ones dying. But while they seem less aware (Mikey) and/or more ready for the possibility (Raph)...
Leo's wholly aware but he'd rather not be and ignore his fears until he can't anymore.

katsuki is sitting on the couch in the living room, holding his new little baby in his arms, and you notice that he's just been staring at him for the longest time. adjusts his little hat so his head doesn't get cold, pulls his small hands away from his face so he doesn't scratch himself.
and they're both quiet for a while, aside from the occasional squirmy baby noise, but katsuki eventually speaks up to ask—
"why's he lookin' at me like that?"
not only is the question itself funny, but the way it's voiced — tone deep and gruff, almost affronted — pulls a true laugh from you, has you shaking your head as you come around the couch to stand beside him.
and sure enough — your new little bean is frowning. even his little hairless browline is furrowed, hard.
you laugh again, sharp enough that your son wiggles in katsuki's arms. "because you're looking at him like that."
katsuki tch's, before turning to give you his son's exact same expression. "no 'm not. this is just my face."
"well, maybe that's just his face."
his frown deepens, hilariously enough. "ain't his face with you." and then he looks back down at him, like he's checking to see if he's still being glared at. he is. "looks like he's pissed."
"maybe he is."
you don't bother to correct him, to inform that your son does, in fact, give you a stink face every now and again — just like his father — and instead you watch katsuki lean down close to him, until their noses are nearly touching. watch the way little fingers squeeze around katsuki's thumb.
"the hell do you have to be pissed about, huh?" katsuki asks, voice quiet and low and small, enough for the boy in his arms. "far as i'm concerned, you're livin' the life."
you only laugh, smile while running a hand through katsuki's hair.
you'd say you are, too.

so israel simultaneously bombed: an ambulance convoy going to the rafah egypt-palestine border that was transporting the most severely injured, the main entrance to al-shifa hospital, the vicinity of al-quds hospital and the indonesian hospital. in doing so, they’ve martyred at least dozens of people, with the numbers still climbing, only to then bomb the osama bin zaid UNRWA school barely an hour later, and the scenes coming out of there are literally those of children blown to pieces. they are unrecognisable as humans. may Allah accept them all as martyrs. and if that wasn’t enough, al-shifa, which is now completely overwhelmed with martyrs’ bodies and even more injured people than before since it’s sheltering and treating those from 1. the ambulance bombing and 2. the entrance bombing, is now totally blacked out. no more light or electricity.
while all this was happening in ghazzah, israeli settlers, aided by the israeli military, were/have been continuously forcing palestinians from their land in the west bank by burning their land and shooting palestinians.
this is only what has happened today (03.11.23) in a period of about 2-3 hours. remember, this has been the last 75 years for palestinians.

for a while i lived in an old house; the kind u.s americans don't often get to live in - living in a really old house here is super expensive. i found out right before i moved out that the house was actually so old that it features in a poem by emily dickinson.
i liked that there were footprints in front of the sink, worn into the hardwood. there were handprints on some of the handrails. we'd find secret marks from other tenants, little hints someone else had lived and died there. and yeah, there was a lot wrong with the house. there are a lot of DIY skills you learn when you are a grad student that cannot afford to pay someone else to do-it-for-ya. i shared the house with 8 others. the house always had this noise to it. sometimes that noise was really fucking awful.
in the mornings though, the sun would slant in thick amber skiens through the windows, and i'd be the first one up. i'd shuffle around, get showered in this tub that was trying to exit through the floor, get my clothes on. i would usually creep around in the kitchen until it was time to start waking everyone else up - some of them required multiple rounds of polite hey man we gotta go knocks. and it felt... outside of time. a loud kind of quiet.
the ghosts of the house always felt like they were humming in a melody just out of reach. i know people say that the witching hour happens in the dark, but i always felt like it occurred somewhere around 6:45 in the morning. like - for literal centuries, somebody stood here and did the dishes. for literal centuries, somebody else has been looking out the window to this tree in our garden. for literal centuries, people have been stubbing their toes and cracking their backs and complaining about the weather. something about that was so... strangely lovely.
i have to be honest. i'm not a history aficionado. i know, i know; it's tragic of me. i usually respond to "this thing is super old" by being like, wow! cool! and moving on. but this house was the first time i felt like the past was standing there. like it was breathing. like someone else was drying their hands with me. playing chess on the sofa. adding honey to their tea.
i grew up in an old town. like, literally, a few miles off of walden pond (as in of the walden). (also, relatedly, don't swim in walden, it's so unbelievably dirty). but my family didn't have "old house" kind of money. we had a barely-standing house from the 70's. history existed kind of... parallel to me. you had to go somewhere to be in history. your school would pack you up on a bus and take you to some "ye olden times" place and you'd see how they used to make glass or whatever, and then you'd go home to your LEDs. most museums were small and closed before 5. you knew history was, like, somewhere, but the only thing that was open was the mcdonalds and the mall.
i remember one of my seventh grade history teachers telling us - some day you'll see how long we've been human for and that thing has been puzzling me. i know the scientific number, technically.
the house had these little scars of use. my floors didn't actually touch the walls; i had to fill them with a stopgap to stop the wind. other people had shoved rags and pieces of newspaper. i know i've lost rings and earring backs down some of the floorboards. i think the raccoons that lived in our basement probably have collected a small fortune over the years. i complain out loud to myself about how awful the stairs are (uneven, steep, evil, turning, hard to get down while holding anything) and know - someone else has said this exact same thing.
when i was packing up to leave and doing a final deep cleaning, i found a note carved in the furthest corner in the narrow cave of my closet. a child's scrawled name, a faded paint handprint, the scrangly numbers: 1857.
we've been human for a long time. way back before we can remember.

actually I also wanna talk about the part where Percy convinces Bob to kill Hyperion because even though Percy never says anything outright sinister, the way he handles the entire situation with such cool ease, playing on Bob’s emotions... its so insane???
Because Annabeth’s reaction to the three of them encountering Hyperion reforming is: “oh this is bad we need to get out of here” She knows if Bob remembers himself, that it's not going to play out well for Percy and her. She also thinks about how they're being pursued and don't have a lot of time. Her solution to the problem, seemingly, is to leave.
But Percy's solution is to work the situation to his advantage. He re-affirms Bob's loyalty to him:
Tumblr media
Percy then re-establishes Bob's moral code: "Some monsters are good. Some are bad. This Titan is bad. He tried to kill me and a lot of people. He's not good like you are."
And it ends with Percy leaving the choice of whatever to do with Hyperion to Bob but of course, is it really what Bob chose to do? Bob decides to kill Hyperion. It's not what he may have done, if Percy hadn't intervened. But it's exactly what Percy was oh-so-sweetly leading Bob to do.
And listen, I'm not claiming that it was exactly morally bankrupt of Percy to take advantage of a once-evil titan who could get him and his girlfriend through hell in one piece. Percy, Annabeth, they manipulate monsters and enemies all the time. Annabeth ended the previous book with manipulating Arachne into weaving her own web. So it's not exactly like she's against using manipulative tactics, in theory.
But Bob, at this point, is not just some monster. He is so painfully sincere in his belief in Percy and their friendship, so yes, it does feel a bit sinister whenever Percy uses Bob... and he really uses Bob.
And I think what makes the scene so unsettling, it isn't just that Percy manipulated Bob, its how well Percy manipulated him. He manipulates Bob so well that Percy doesn't even have to kill Hyperion... because Bob does it for him. He manipulates Bob so well, that Annabeth couldn't tell if Percy was purposefully trying to manipulate the situation. (Newsflash, he most definitely was). Like holy shit.

Merlin isn't afraid that arthur will kill him if he discover his magic, he isn't afraid about people putting him on a pyre. He can snuff the fire if he wished to. He can cut sword (he literally does it as a 80 yo man)
Merlin is stronger than anyone else if he really wanted to, if he wasn't blocked by something else nothing could bare him from conquering the world.
Then what scare Merlin so much? What could make someone who is literally magic make himself appear weak, make him lie so many time that he starts to believe he can be stopped?
Love. Merlin is afraid to be unlovable. To be a monster. He is afraid to never find somewhere to belong to. That's what drive him and what pull him down.

I want someone who loves me, accepts me and my innabilities and flaws and someone who holds me when I feel like shit and hate myself again.
But I also want to love someone the same way. I want to give my love to them, my complicated, not very verbal love that can get so confusing and overwhelming to me. My love that I have trouble with expressing because it's so deep and intimate and I am just a little human being unable to do anything the right way at least once, a being that has trouble socializing, just going out, making new friends and maybe, just maybe but finally, also someone I can receive love from as much as I want to give.
Someone who understands that I'm a mess with bad memory and insecurities and overthinking that holds me back from doing literally anything. Someone who has enough patience and love to put up with me.
