#and the comfort the soft moments after

[plasmodiumpyrexia]

Some crying tropes:

[A] hears [B] approach - the door opens, footsteps or B's voice - and quickly wipes their eyes, trying to act as normal possible while keeping their face hidden from B

When A is in a state of shock and the tears start falling without them fully realizing it

Tears merging with rain and shower breakdowns (especially shower breakdowns)

Waking up in tears after a nightmare or fever dream, the lingering confusion and fear, they're alone and scared...

That choked up, watery, wavering voice

Sight blurred by tears

An accumulation of stress; A is mentally/emotionally exhausted and bursts into tears over something small

A's words are quickly lost to hitching breaths and helplessly sobbing in B's arms

Apologizing for crying, for "being a mess", for bothering B (and B's reassurance that it's perfectly ok)

When its A's turn to be the strong one, they look like they're going to cry but they're trying hard not to, not in front of the others

A thinks they're hiding it but B gives them a soft, knowing "what's wrong?" look and they just. break

Moon tries to bond with Readerbot, and it goes... surprisingly well?

(there was gonna be an extra two panels to this where moon says 'hey' and when readerbot turns their head he leans his head forward to 'kiss' them and the lil sound effect is either 'bonk' or 'boop' but i scrapped the idea bc this vers of Moon is way too nervous n shy to try n be smooth abt anything lmaoooo)

A quiet weekend alone in Columbia

#don’t you dare repost this to Pinterest #anyway #they’re getting comfortable in bed #after a long day of blissfully doing nothing #the sun is setting and golden light dances upon them #Andrew pulls Neil in for a desperate kiss #Neils heart is pulled towards Andrew #but he clutches the blanket #because he doesn’t have a yes yet to touch #idk guys I’m emotional and chronically depressed #I needed this render moment to exist in a picture #I hoarded this for three weeks because I’m human and I’m scared to post personal pieces #aftg #andriel #soft Andreil #Neil Josten #andrew minyard

requested by @lexkent: the scene in "Shattered" where Lana sees Lex on the ground in the stable sitting curled into himself, and she looks anguished to see him in such a state, and she's so kind and compassionate to him

+ bonus Lana, after literally almost dying:

#thank you erin for requesting this because these scenes are incredibly underrated #like the moment where lana hands lex the drink and he smiles up at her with such an innocently adoring look....... many thoughts head full #(yes I know it all goes horribly wrong right after that but shhhhh) #she's just soooo soft and gentle and sweet with him and it's hitting all the best hurt/comfort buttons in my heart 🥺 #just look at all the comforting touches!! lex almost never receives that kind of genuine affection/positive physical contact from other ppl #I think it's also worth pointing out that lana decides at the end of the ep that being around *clark* is dangerous and she should avoid him #but she never expresses a similar sentiment towards lex or blames him at all for what happened #and a few episodes later she even tells him that he could have visited her while she was recovering #......god I still can't get over the fact that her first words when she wakes up in the hospital are 'how's lex' like I really could cry #she's the best and I won't hear a word to the contrary #smallville #smallvilleedit #svedit #lana lang #lex luthor #clark kent #lexana #dcmultiverse #sv 3x08 #my gifs

"You've been through a lot... But it's alright now.

You fought long and hard Makoto...

Everyone in Kanai Ward is grateful to you."

A lil' MakoYuma comfort edit I attempted just because...

...someone needs to give this poor thing a hug fr... ;w;

show your emotions lil' CEO, you've held them in too long.

ty again for the vulnerable sadboi makoto sprite edits @shiut💕

#rain code spoilers #rain code #master detective archives: rain code #whumpcode #its angst/comfort so it counts idc #yuma kokohead #makoto kagutsuchi #makoyuma #my edits #pixeledits #yeah for my first edit in a while #I went with something soft #I want Yuma to hug Makoto so badly... ;-; #weird hug but its the best I could do lol #I love these two so much #did something similar to that one YumaYakou edit I did #lil foggy effect because its supposed to be a serene moment #much as I love whumping these two w illness... #I do want them to be happy no more sad times ;-; #AND NO MORE CONCEALING YOUR EMOTIONS #YOU WILL CRY AND YOU WILL FEEL GOOD DOING IT #also yes this is post game yuma #ROLE REVERSAL TIME #not the best edit but its hard to edit makoto #WHEN HIS HAIR IS CUT OFF FROM HIS SPRITE X-X #yuma's probably the only one who can comfort him tbh #given he trusts nobody else #I think Makoto would be a very silent crier #not long after he'd wipe his tears away going back to normal #but let him have his small moment for now <3

Remember in Hollow Mind when Hunter said "I'll be home soon, Flapjack, stay safe. I love you, over and out." Crazy.

#like YEAH it destroys me NOW but it was a million times worse when hollow mind aired #because that moment really reconceptualizes hunter #you really didnt think he was so comfortable saying stuff like that yet #or that he was really all THAT affectionate with flapjack #the most affection he was shown giving him was slight head pats and soft smiles #but after hollow mind its like...god. yknow he was cuddling that little birdie and giving him scritches #and shamelessly cooing over him and being like ''i love you!! i love you!! i love you so much!!! :D!!!!'' #deteriorates my vital organs

Unhappy Campers is indeed a disgrace of an episode and made me hate both Moxxie and Millie even though I used to love them both and their relationship before it. What are your thoughts on it?

Oh my god someone who agrees.

I was already pretty wonky on how much I liked M and M, but after unhappy campers it just put a weird taste in my mouth.

So many things about their relationship were forced for plot reasons that never get addressed, and are suddenly fixed because of one shitty apology from Moxxie.

Like we had ZERO signs of Millie having depression!! Nothing!! And in a show like this, thats something you need to at least make watchers think is a possibility!! And then, even after Millie basically says she has depression and mentally is really bad, Moxxie does NOTHING!!! NOTHING. not until Millies stupid big show that had no plot relevance what so ever, where makes a shitty apology, and Millie immediately forgives him!! Yes I understand you shouldn't hold grudges, but this was a serious thing!! Moxxie was being selfish (which is REALLY out of character) and being a complete asshole! It kinda sucks too because a line in Moxxie's song in the final of season one was 'i'll never take you for granted' and what does he do?? Take her for granted!! But the thing is, the show didn't show this as bad, feeding into it even more!!

The episode in general sucked from the horrible, horrible jokes, to poor writing, to plot, it just sucked.

Another thing that makes me so mad about this episode is how it completely sweeps what the hell happened to Stolas under the rug!! Like in the beginning I originally thought Blitz was breaking into the hospital Stolas' was in!! That would have made for something interesting if they keep wanting to feed into stolitz!! Personally I don't think stolitz should be a thing, at least not in the way how Helluva boss is trying to make it happen. It feels way to forced, and it's incredibly wrong because Stolas as a person and character is HORRIBLE.

Or! If they REALLY wanted the whole barbie plot line, THEY SHOULD HAVE FOCUSED THE EPISODE ON BLITZ. Moxxie and Millie did not need to be in this episode! All they needed to do is have blitz send them on a solo mission as a explanation for why they weren't there.

Anyway, overall this episode put a really bad taste in my mouth so now I want to watch m and m fall. Well I've been wanting to watch their relationship get worse because depth

I swear I'ma rewrite the episode that how much I hate it

#So after truth seekers is when I joined on the HB train. #Me and my friend (who I will call Mills because we were in a HB rp and they were Millie) #Had a theory that M and M would get into a big argument #And end up taking a break from each other #And blitz being blitz would find out. #And after the emotional episode before hand #I thought Blitz and mox might have been a bit more comfortable with each other #And we would get a emotional bonding moment between the two #Blitz give moxxie a.. horribly worded yet good pep talk #And shit. #And on Millie's side we'll get to see why the argument got to her #Like past trauma which would have been good to introduce as a reason for depression. #And we'll see her actually take care of herself #And not be a crutch to raise up Moxxie as a character. #If you couldn't tell I've always had a soft spot for Millie. #Country gal to country gal #hb fizzarolli #fizzaroli helluva boss #blitzo #helluva boss fizzarolli #helluva boss fanart #helluva boss #helluva blitzo #helluva fanart #helluva boss season 2 #helluvaboss #helluva loona #helluva fizzarolli #helluva chaz #helluva crimson

Thinking about my ultimate comfort character/ soulmate Draken being so keyed into your emotions that he can tell something is wrong by just the way your breathing, the way your sigh is longer than usual, how you walk around listlessly.

You don’t even have to say anything to him before he appears behind you, long arms wrapping around your waist pulling you into him in the most heart pounding, warm, soul calming, purely sensual embrace. His breath fawns over your nape as his head finds its place in the crook of your neck, lips curling into a soft smile as you gasp in surprise , waiting for you to relax.

unbeknownst to you but he loves seeing you physically decompress in his arms.

#i’m having a moment #not the best possible day but instead of dealing with it I’ll think about my comfort character 🥺 #selfshipping #I’m very very soft after this #Kenny boy #I imagine being curled into his side hiding in his shadow with her arm around your waist holding you as close as possible 🥺 #his* #I love him very very much your honor #draken #tokyo rev headcanons #tokrev #Tokyo revengers fluff #draken tokyo revengers #ken ryuguji #Dessy's tomes♡

By god I’m gonna have to write my own Astarion and Tiefling Tav hurt/comfort fics aren’t I.

#baulders gate 3 #original character #meganebabeart #astarion #look I ship my tav Beatrix with Astarion so fucking hard #like I need touch starved Astarion fonally grtting the affection he wants #cuddles and comfort being held while sleeping #soft sweet moments #i also want grounding astarion after dissociating and helping him woth the ptsd. #i want astarion to find his very cheerful and sarcastic partner on the out skirts of camp sobbing from doubt that they have been hiding #for so long that they finally just broke down #and Astarion giving a hug to comfort them as they had down so many times #GIMME THE HURT COMFORT

was in the uni prayer room after a long, hectic day and there was this girl leading her friend in prayer and her voice was so angelic i wished i could continue listening to her forever

#briefly considered lingering to tell her how beautiful and comforting her recitation is but i had to leave #her choice of verses too! #idk why im being emotional ab this ig it was an unexpectedly soft and peaceful moment after a tiring day #this is also a rare thing to see? i’ve never seen anyone pray in congregation at uni before #everyone usually prays alone

i've talked about it here and there how chiyo is a virgin and how it takes time for her to really grow comfortable in expressing her desires and preferences, and i dunno?? i just feel very soft thinking about chiyo not only wanting someone that much but also trusting someone enough to say, " i've never done this, but i want to do it with you. "

to even admit her inexperience will be stressful enough, especially if she knows or assumes her partner is experienced. there's that anxiety over whether they'll find her attractive, whether she'll be any good at sex, whether or not her virginity makes her unappealing, etc. chiyo won't likely bring sex up to her partner bc she's so nervous -- still eager bc she's very much attracted to them, but incredibly nervous.

but!! she's able to overcome all these anxieties bc her partner makes her feel so comfortable, so safe. whether the topic comes up in casual conversation or in the heat of the moment, chiyo will be able to admit that she has what she considers an embarrassing amount of knowledge but no experience bc her partner has already put in the work to gain her trust completely. and i just think it's very sweet :' )

#i feel like i'm talking in circles and not exactly communicating my thoughts clearly asdf #a headache hit me just now which is very rude of my body :// #but also it's just so cute and sweet thinking of chiyo being like ' is this okay?? is this good?? ' in one moment #and in the next after she's gotten more comfortable she's grinning and teasing her partner as if she wasn't just asking them for #instructions :' ))) #i dunno i'm soft #i like thinking about these little moments of intimacy very much #headcanons | chiyoko #tw suggestive

One day, you comes across the staffbot in the abandoned theater.

There is a fine layer of dust to them, just as there is on everything else in the room. You are hesitant to even walk in, at first. You climb the stares from stage right, approaching with enough time to let them back away if they wanted to. They don't. You come up so you are face to face with them. Though frozen in an empty, static pose, their eyes are dusky, lifeless. You stare for a while. It's odd, seeing your reflection like this.

You take the time to lower their suspended hands to a more relaxed position. You straighten their hat and adjust the front of their vest, dusting off the shoulders. You stand, looking at them for a while.

You don't check as you leave and carefully, noiselessly, close the door behind you, but you know their head turned to follow your silent departure. Both you know it will be a long time before you return. Hopefully, they do not blame you. No one ever likes coming to a silent theater to look upon the long-cold corpse of themselves.

lays in bed face down thinking about hurt comfort and sobbing uncotrollably into my pillow

#nadine is typing... #LISTEN. SHUT UP #listen. #it's only at 12 am that my mind can come up with these banger ouchies specifically catered to me #this always happens after I make violent Dean content I gotta go all what if he just yearns to be soft and gentle and loved #and what if he's always on the edge of snapping bc Joseph is always offering him the peace he craves so deeply #what if we wants to stop fighting bc he's been fighting since he was born and he's tired #that's one of the reasons his and Jacob's dynamic drives me feral bc like #they are both survivors who have been fighting since forever and they will kill to protect themselves and their family #but Dean got to be soft for a while. he got to enjoy normal life while Jacob was off doing his Hannibal arc #and Jacob just brings all that repressed anger and survival instinct out in Dean during the reaping #he pushes him to the extreme and is trying to morph him into the part of him he hates most #which is in stark contrast to Joseph trying to break him down to be docile and pliant #they rlly fuck each other over with their very diff plans for Dean lmao #meanwhile John and Faith are just in the bg having emotionally intense moments with Dean that are entirely too vulnerable and fragile #tired rambling anyway the hurt/comfort is Joseph/Dean themed tonight and I think they should kiss #I think Dean should get to crumble and break into tiny pieces and cling to Joseph like he's a lifeline #a very unstable lifeline that is actually dragging him further underwater but still :) #days are full of cramming to get this diploma fucking done 12 am is full of yearning

when he makes me want to become the best version of myself :)

#tp #on the night i was feeling horrible he bought me coffee and walked around the block for two straight hours with me #talking about anything and everything and asking me how i feel #he told me about his childhood and told me little stories here and there and talked me out of feeling shitty #i had been rude to him unintentionally a few hours prior and despite that he approached me with utmost kindness #and i have never met someone like him before #he is so clever and smart and funny and witty and sensible and soft hearted and kind and understanding #he also stayed awake for me while i couldnt sleep past midnight at the lounge area because he knew there was a creep around despite being #utterly tired and that's why i told him we could go back up to our rooms respectively bc i couldnt dare leaving him out of his sleep #and he asked if me or my neighbors had a cat when we first started hanging out after he took a glimpse at my arms #and when i told him no he gave me the most understanding smile ever and i almost cried then and there in front of everyone else #and now i find myself reading about as many topics as i can handle bc i want to be as knowledgable as him #and i find myself trying my best at everything bc i wouldnt want to disappoint him when he brought me comfort at a moment when i #was feeling one of my lowest #i cant do that to someone who strolled around the unfamiliar streets near our hotel at midnight for nearly two hours with me #who gave me a warm cup of coffee when my hands were going numb but i didnt want to go back inside bc i was feeling stuffy #i'll see him again in a few months and i want to (oh so badly want to) show him that i got better #he didnt know me well (we'd only interacted for a week or two) and yet it was like he was the only person who understood #and all of a sudden he's become the person i associate the most with safety and comfort #and i know (gosh i KNOW) that he's suffered through so so much up until this day of his life and that's why he is the way he is #and i just want him to feel okay and i want to be able to comfort him the way he does me whenever he #feels bad #sorry for the feeling dump but i just want to let y'all know that there is an incredible person out there that #im so happy to have met and become friends with

rin from the books of bayern series is such a mirrorball girlie

#it’s fall babyyyy #time to reread middle school fantasy classics #i don’t know if that’s a thing other ppl do #but there’s smth ab the changing of seasons… #from summer to fall #and returning to comfort books that evoke a soft kind of nostalgia #i had such an insane crush on all the girls of the series #but i remember reading forest born and after i finished it #i read it two more times the same week #i don’t think i’ve ever had a character that so deeply felt in line w me #like i’ve always processed emotions and my identity and all that through fiction and characters #but that always involved like …. extrapolation and subtext and reading wayyy too far into things #and with rin it was just immediate #the feeling that is so strong it’s more of a knowledge than a thought #that there is something deeply rotten within you and wrong but no one ever notices #which then just makes it feel as if you are fooling everyone into thinking you’re good when you’re anything but #and!!!! she has this moment where she thinks smth along the lines of #‘i’m the sheen on water. i’m not real’ or smth like that?? #idk i don’t have the book on me #but like all that plus being the youngest child #she’s not my fave of all time and i actually consistently forget ab the book #but every time i come back to the series #it hits so hard without fail #reading it is like tearing open my body to stare at my soul #and finishing it is like the most healing experience possible #i don’t know just whenever i’m reminded of it #it’s an epiphany each time #books of bayern #shannon hale #booking it
