do you think rose, in the moment she was the bad wolf and knew it all, even to the point where she would lose her doctor and there was nothing she could do to stop it, that he would be alone so long and so many times after her—do you think that in the course of scattering her breadcrumb trail to herself that she reached forward as well? did she find the doctor’s darkest moments and leave a hint of herself where he might see her? if she cannot save him forever, then she can at least say ‘i was here, i see you, you will be safe again one day if by your own hand instead of mine’? condemned never to intervene, like all absent gods, but sometimes all you pray for is a sign to keep going and she can give the doctor that.
if s1 of torchwood means anything, then she did for Jack. graffiti on the streets, the only way to promise she didn’t forget him, she loves him still, she will love him back to life for the rest of time. so who’s to say the doctor doesn’t get messages, too, when he needs them?

It's so funny to me that the fandom has come to see Hirano as a Sasamiya promoter of sorts because while he is, it took him some time to get accustomed to the idea of them together. And while he was never a hater Sasaki's actions towards Miyano certainly used to get on his nerves.
At first he was so worried and probably even felt a little guilty because (as mentioned in the following screenshot) because the only reason why Sasaki knows which class Miya is in, is thanks to him.
But like, that's not the face of a friend that's happy to play cupid and get their two acquaintances together. Not at all, that's the face of someone who puts his sempai-kouhai relationship with Miyano over his (pseudo) friendship with Sasaki.
Hirano from the first chapters would have jailed Sasaki if he were allowed to. (And he has his reasons, Sasaki has been something since the first chapters)
Anyway, the progression of events is really interesting.
He started, quite literally, shielding Miyano from Sasaki.
Then, he came to accept their relationship.
And at the end he really was rooting for them, to the point he ended up outright lying just so Miyano could meet Sasaki and they could talk it out and confess.

Yeah I love how unabashedly romantic hsmtmts is, it’s so refreshing having a girl put in a position between ambition and career or the boy she loves and her saying no I’m not choosing I get both, I get to have it all. It spits in the face of every cynical narrative out there and I’m so grateful and happy it was Gina Porter who got to be the face of that story.

1. it’s my 24th birthday today, so my goal of being published by the time i’m 25 is now a one year looming monster, but i never specified what kind of published and am currently looking in various literary magazines that are recommended for writers who have yet to be published, so i’m surprisingly confident that i can make it work? and tbh even if whatever i write isn’t officially published before my 25th birthday, if i have someone in the process of being published then i’ll be happy!! no matter what though, i’m gonna try to be proud of myself for at least giving it my best shot!!
2. i honestly love that my birthday is on the ides of march because the ides of march meme shitposting is only a thing on tumblr but it also being my birthday makes it easier to like. be excited about the ides of march outside of tumblr. like even in person i can be like “it’s my birthday! i’m an ides of march babe (:” and if someone is like oh what’s that? or if they say something along the lines of oh like julius caesar? i can be like yep!! and even if it’s a small thing outside of tumblr it brings me immense enjoyment and amusement being able to bring it up off of tumblr
3. transportation situation has been very rough since june 2023 when i totalled my car, my gap insurance are being assholes and i ended up putting my foot down on the phone with them yesterday which i’m pretty proud of because i am NOT a confrontational person (something i’ve been working on this past year, so seeing some improvement with my ability to hold my ground and not be a pushover yesterday was very cool!!) i was told i’d get a response from them by friday next week no matter what, and if i don’t then friday of next week i will continue to wreak havoc upon them. but my moms car which i’ve been using since my accident broke down yesterday, hopefully it’s fixable but my parents were saying it might be done for, so trying to think of how i’m gonna get to work next week is kind of stressing me out lmao, but for now i’m just gonna focus on enjoying my birthday the best i can because i don’t want to start off being 24 with an overwhelming anxiety for something that won’t be a potential issue until monday. plus i already messaged my boss today to let her know that i’m going to do everything i can to make it work out but just so she’s in the loop and knows of the potential of me not being able to make my morning shifts (one of my coworkers said she’s more than happy to give me a ride for our afternoon shifts which does help relieve some of the stress!) and i told her i’d let her know for sure sunday so that if necessary she can have time to figure out someone to fill in for me in the mornings!
overall: life is weird and i ended being 23 yesterday with a shitty situation but a positive outlook and i am going to enjoy my first day of being 24 no matter what because honestly i fucking earned it. happy friday everyone, i hope it’s a good day for you and me both!

I am so fucking glad tedbecca was never a thing. y'all's media literacy is non-existent. that woman was having a meltdown about wanting to beat her ex husband not lusting after that mediocre white man
Hello! I appreciate your opinion, and I understand where you are coming from completely. I love hearing other points of view and being challenged to think in ways I might not have considered before.
I do, however, have a few things to add about the way in which you've chosen to deliver this message.
Thanks for sharing your opinion with me, but the fact that you've criticized me for my enjoyment of a certain piece of media in a certain way and then used pretty antagonistic terms to describe the characters in that piece of media seems unnecessary.
Good news! You can interpret art and media however you want to interpret art and media! If you didn't see a romantic aspect of any given ship in any given show/book/movie/work, that's perfectly fine, and all it means is that your personal experience of that work is slightly different than mine. And not only is that okay, but it's also kind of beautiful.
I can't help but wonder what the goal was here. What was the intention? What could you possibly hope to gain from this interaction other than to assert your dominance and emphasize that you are in fact the superior media enjoyer by...putting other people down, in search of what I can only imagine is some sort of satisfaction in telling someone their opinion doesn't matter?
I sincerely hope that you understand, first and foremost, that I am a human being. I am, in fact, not an amalgamation of all the things you hate about consumer media culture or the perceived lack of "media literacy". I am a human being who loves stories, and who loves love. I'm not trying to force ideas on anyone, nor am I suggesting that anyone who views anything differently than me is wrong in any way.
All this to say: Art is subjective, my friend. Also, don't be mean to people. Your feelings, thoughts, and opinions are all completely valid, but the way in which you've attempted to tear me down is not.
Take a walk. Take a nap. Take a breath. Don't take it out on a human person.
I value both your opinion and you as a person. I don't appreciate the way in which you've decided to take it out on me.
Have a lovely day!

((I've done a few of these today, I know, but I'm going to get one last blog interaction reminder out of my system rq. I'm coming from a good/positive place with this (although if I'm being honest it can be a source of upset/frustration if I'm having anxiety, that isn't the case here so don't worry!) and hopefully afterwards I'll be able to do actual ic content after work and whatnot. I appreciate everyone who reads this and makes the attempt to understand where I'm coming from.
Compliments are nice and I truly do appreciate each and every one. I know you guys mean well whether we interact or not but please don't let compliments be the only way you engage with me. Again I have to stress that I appreciate them but at the end of the day if that's the only thing you send in it begins to feel a bit.... hollow for lack of a better term and I hate feeling that way about something that's coming from a genuine place. If you truly like what I do that much then let's shift focus and actually turn it into legitimate ic engagement. Tell me you like something; a muse, a plot, a vibe, whatever else, and then let's work on writing that thing, no matter what it is, together. I love y'all but at the end of the day I don't want people who just stay on the sidelines and occasionally say something nice, I want you to fuckin jump in here with me.
You like a muse? Prompt them.
You like a muse but don't know how to approach them for whatever reason? Tell me and I'll help you.
You like multiple muses but can't decide who to interact with first? Guess what babe, you're getting the party platter and 24/7 muse service.
You aren't sure about a muse for whatever reason? I'll teach you about them/help you figure out if they're right for you.
There are literally no limits whatsoever and honestly? At the end of the day I'm here to write with people, whatever it takes. Again: I'm here to write WITH people rather than just for or around them. If you can muster up the nerve to send me ooc love then surely you can do it ic as well, all it takes is a shift in perspective, priority, focus, whatever word you'd like to use. Engaging ooc is great but I want you to actually engage from an ic standpoint just as much and all I'm asking is that you guys keep that in mind because it's incredibly important.))

Instead of studying my statistics, I wrote lyrics that came out as a limerick bc I don't know what I'm doing, lol.
Raging Parasaurolophus
I've had enough of this rousing cacophony
This sound that doesn't consider me
Grinding at my teeth
Trembling below my feet
It's enough to rouse anyone to misery
Now there's a source for this horrid discord
It's driven by morbid accord
I'm looking at it now
It's that herbaceous cow
That believes itself to be king!
You rampaging Parasaurolophus
The stomping can be felt by all of us
And when you trample on those below
You have the audacity to say
"It's natural"!
Raging Parasaurolophus
Your honking can be heard by all of us
Just listen for once and maybe
Even you can be treated more fairly
So you claim to be the professor of suffering
And the holiest master of death
But do you know of asavas
Or the eight noble paths
That you trample, all over, so carelessly?
It's in the history you claim to be honering
In the symbols you stole with no caring
By the wheel you chant
But the wheel's not slant!
It's a wheel! It turns! You imbecile!
You rampaging Parasaurolophus
Your stomping can be felt by all of us
And when you trample on those below
You have the audacity to say
"It's natural!"
Raging Parasaurolophus
Your honking can be heard by all of us
Just listen for once and maybe
Even you can be treated more fairly
Now there's a way out of your misery
You just have to listen to me
Put that gun down
Open your palms out
And embrace the wider community
It's here you'll find true power
In groups so marginal and larger
Together we'll stand
To end capitol's plan
And live, together, far stronger
You rampaging Parasaurolophus
Your stomping can be felt by all of us
And when you trample on those below
You have the audacity to say
"It's natural!"
Raging Parasaurolophus
Your honking can be heard by all of us
Just listen for once and maybe
Even you can be treated more fairly
You rampaging Parasaurolophus
It's time you put a stop to all of this!
Get out of your head
Or soon you'll be dead
By your own machinations at hand!
Raging Parasaurolophus
It's not too late to put it behind us!
Get in touch with some grass
Forget the old brass
And be happy, for once, you childish arse!

a message for us readers of top clarke/bottom lexa content: lets show up and support this content as much as we can and leave nice comments!!! we may not be majority but we can let the authors/content creaters know there's interest in this content so that they don't think they're writing into a void and get discouraged💖
👏👏 YES
Very well said anon!!! Comment on stuff, reblog and add a tag to tell the creator how much you liked it, if you dont feel comfortable reblogging, send an anon ask!! Some people create out of love but when they have none to little feedback it does make people much less motivated, especially if writing something that isnt the majority of the fandom's preference!!!
The more niche you go, the more you gotta show love to the creators if you want them to continue creating!! 💕
