random fire nation diplomat #492 will never understand the complex and fucked up relationship between the water siblings like I do 🙄

The eternal problem with jimmy john's is that they have really good tuna salad, but they only have really good tuna salad about 25% of the time. 50% of the time it's just middle of the road decent, and the other 25% of the time it's absolute trash. I have no way to predict what it will be any time I get a sandwich from them.
The first tuna salad sandwich I ever got from them was one of the really good ones, and I've been chasing that high ever since.

“It’s ok that you hugged me” is giving BoTL vibes when Poseidon talks to Percy at the end of the book and is like “We need to talk about St. Helens” and Percy’s immediate line of thinking is “oh shoot he knows Annabeth kissed me”

fabian’s insistence on calling someone to tell them about lucy & yolanda because he thought people just deserved to know, out of respect. both deeply sweet & incredibly gutting. (bill seacaster move over that’s MY darling boy)

he says i hate everyone except you and that is addictive and that is kind of romantic and beautiful because you're young and you're kind of a sarcastic asshole too and you don't like bad boys, per say, but you don't really like good ones either. and you like that you were the exception, it felt like winning.
except life is not a romance book, and he was kind of being honest. he doesn't learn to be nice to your friends. he only tolerates your family. you have to beg him to come with you to birthday parties, he complains the whole time. you want to go on a date but - people are often there, wherever you're going. he's just so angry. about everything, is the thing. in the romance book, doesn't he eventually soften? can't you teach him, through your own sense of whimsy and comfort?
at first - you know introverts often need smaller friend groups, and honestly, you're fine staying at home too. you like the small, tidy life you occupy. you're not going to punish him for his personality type.
except: he really does hate everyone but you. which means he doesn't get along with his therapist. which means he has no one to talk to except for you. which means you take care of him constantly, since he otherwise has no one. which means you sometimes have to apologize for him. which means he keeps you home from seeing your friends because he hates them. you're the single exception.
about a decade from this experience, you'll type into google: how to know if a relationship is codependent.
he wraps an arm around you. i hate everyone except you. these days, you're learning what he's actually confessing is i have very little practice being kind.
