#here's to another year of friendship

[altairtalisman]

Since today's International Friendship Day, I decided to draw a graffiti-style depiction of some of my friends! There isn't a lot of space though so if I didn't add you in... yeah I blame space and Tumblr's 20MB limit

From left to right:

Top row: @mango1116, @inquisitive-mess, @weirdbutdecentart, @djts-arts, @cheemken

Middle row: @toasty-owl-arts, @redlover411, @just-jammin, @astro-inthestars

Bottom row: @toastermart, @p4ntry-d3m0n

#international friendship day #surprisingly I look hot as hell in this #here's to another year of friendship #tw scars #Altair draws

Eddie and Steve in their 30s, bundled up on the couch in a nest of combined blankets and pillows. Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Years Eve drones on in the background and Steve’s laying lengthwise across the couch with his head in Eddie’s lap, snoozing away as Eddie absentmindedly scratches his scalp and plays with his hair.

The years of going out and hosting parties are contentedly behind them, replaced instead with a quiet domesticity Eddie quite frankly can’t believe he prefers these days. But he does. Paul Anka’s singing a rendition of John Lennon’s Imagine, the Christmas tree is still up and fully lit in the corner of the room, and Steve is breathing slow, even breaths. It’s more than he’d ever dared to hope for.

10… 9… 8

“Steve?” He whispers, leaning down.

7… 6… 5…

“Mm? Is it the New Year?”

4… 3… 2…

“Just in time, Sweetheart.”

1!

Eddie smiles against Steve’s lips and kisses him, just like he had that first New Years Eve all those years ago. He kisses Steve well into the new year, and doesn’t plan to ever stop.

I need a completely rewritten teen wolf series with Derek Hale as the main character. I think it would heal me.

#we follow Derek from New York. Laura left for beacon hills. it’s been six years since he was back but he hasn’t heard from her #and hes going stir crazy waiting. he packs up and travels back. it’s almost too much immediately. he still can’t get a hold of Laura #he can’t resist going home. it’s like a natural pull that guides him back. all at once he’s 16 again. staring at the wreckage of his life #deputy stilinski is sherrif now. it’s reassuring in the slightest that the police force seems to have moved on from how corrupt it was #he catches her scent and it’s putrid. bile catches in his throat. he seeks it out. still in denial to what he knows it means. #when he finds Laura it’s like the world ends all over again. he can’t stand to see her like this. he gives her a proper burial. #the best he can do at least #he visits Peter. he’s not the man Derek remembers- so full of fire and cunning. their relationship may have been strained at times. #often Derek felt more like Eve being swayed by the snake than a normal friendship #but this isn’t the sharp tongued uncle who guided him. this is a broken shell. all that remained of his family. he was so lost. #22 but he barely knew how to function without his family- his pack paving the way #Laura handled everything. she got the apartment. she made sure they had food. Derek looks back and feels so useless #he was so lost in his grief. Laura must of felt the same way but she never let them drown in it #she made sure he got his GED. even got him to enroll in community college classes. #he took them online. he never was able to warm up to people the same way. he used to be so full of life. now he just wanted to be left alone #he studied English. never finished his degree. doesn’t look like he ever will now. he can’t go back to Laura and his shared home. #can’t bare to see another shell of a home #he vents to the vacant audience of Peter and his cold fixed eyes #Derek leaves. he wants to promise he’ll return soon #but promises feel costly these days #he decides to go back to the reserve. maybe he can find some clue as to what happened to Laura #someone lured her here. someone who knew them and their history here #his mind went to the worst. Kate. why would she go through the trouble six years later. why wait so long. #Derek couldn’t stomach the thought of facing her. he focused on the woods. the scents were all over the place. #clearly multiple people had been through here recently. two scents were much stronger. Derek follows them #but when he hears the crunch of leaves he realizes why the scents are so strong. they’re still here #he ducks behind some trees. listening in on their conversation. but an echo of their scent catches his attention #he spots an inhaler on the ground. he puts two and two together and swipes it from the leaves. #he comes out once they’re closer. tossing over the inhaler- he figures they’ll leave. dumb kids messing around in the woods #he reminds them this is private property. though that may not be true anymore. he recognizes the scent of a new beta. interesting.

i keep thinking about how they use sonic advance 3 in particular in the one flashback in sonic prime, it's because that's where 'unbreakable bond' originates from!

Sonic and Tails' unbreakable bond is so important to sonic (the character and the series)

#sonic prime spoilers #unbreakable bond #sonic the hedgehog #miles tails prower #sonic prime #warning: i am about to ramble and the topic changes like 4 times and i am now too lazy to delete it all and make it into it's own post #i love sonic prime so so so much and i love how much it focus on sonic and tails' brotherhood #tails doesnt get much focus in the entire sonic series surprisingly #for being the literal 'luigi' of the series (little brother/player 2 to the main character) #and lots (not all) people often sideline or minimize the importance of their friendship #either for shipping reasons (invalid reason imo) or because they don't really care for tails (also invalid reason imo) #i love how much love to tails and amy prime gives. because despite how important to the series they are they get sidelined quite a bit #tbh the sidelining is worse for amy if you include fanworks too #amy is like the poster child of the main female character who gets hated on for 'getting in the way' of a fandom gay ship #and the effects of that are still felt now #people STILL act like that now and it makes me so sad!!! #i love amy so much. shes such a sweetheart. she just sometimes acts like the 12 year old girl she is and fandoms hate that #but yeah this is another reason why sonic tumblr is the best side of the fandom because i haven't seen people act like that- #- about amy here for a good 7 or so years

Okay, I’m sending this on here because this is where we first interacted. It has now made me think if this is the right day we met though, because the 14th was when we first started speaking on discord so was it the same day ? Anyhow 🤣 HAPPY BESTIE-VERSARY

We say this all the time, but I still can’t believe I met you because of Chenford and because you’re an indecisive bitch 🤣but thank goodness you are, because if you weren’t, I wouldn’t have met my best friend. I’m genuinely so grateful to have you in my life, like it’s just more enjoyable having you in it, so really, truly, Thankyou 🫶 my partner in chaos, my future roommate, my soul sister, my fellow witch in crime, i love you ❤️

I sometimes hate the internet (okay, a lot) and I mean, I do kind of have a point lmfao, but it did bring me my bestie so I guess I’ll say it’s not too bad 🤣

Btw, answer me back bitch, where are you ? Are you writing again ? Are you watching tbbt ? If you’re watching bones, I forgive you. If you’re not, I’m holding this against you for at least two days

Jk, love you lots 🫶

Well, for once I was actually not writing or watching anything but I *was* going over my notes for that multi chapter I've been planning since May and just told you about. I finally decided to choose the more painful route (yo welcome!), so normal stuff. Wait, does that also count as writing? Either way, I'm sorry for my late replies last night haha. You know I answered as soon as my tears were dry (do not recommend crying before going to sleep btw) not long after you texted me so please don't be mad at me for two days because just the thought makes me sad 😭

ANYWAY. I can't believe it's been a year! Feels like so much longer and yet like no time has passed at all. And you know what, I think that first tumblr interaction was just a day or two before? It says Feb 13th for me so I'm saying it was the 13th, which is definitely a sign girl. If anyone ever says that a TV show or a fictional couple can't change your life, they're wrong. Because look at this weird ass friendship we've build because of Chenford. I would not want to change it for the world because life is just so much better with you in it and I'm forever grateful I got mad at you and then DM'd you on discord a day later 😂 that was very unlike introverted, shy me but hey, I'm learning!

Future roommate, partner in chaos, fellow witch in crime, soul sister.. bestie. I love you lots too ♥️ happy bestie-versary 🫶🏻

#here's to another endless amount of years of friendship #I love her so much #if you could see our conversations on whatsapp.. #oh boy #so much chaos

#M #Im feeling wonky #I messed up a friendship and im being used by a coworker and i feel like i may be betrayed for a 4th time #Those things are not related to each other #And then i for some reason read youtube comments #And that was a bad idea #Bc they were hating on swedish speaking finns #Aka my grandparents #Lots of misinfo too #If there is a video about someone getting threatened or beat up for their language #Why would you comment that they deserved it for speaking a language that has existed in that region for 800+ years? #And so so so much misinformation too #I don't know maybe im feeling ill bc i missed my train (earlier train was late) #Aurgha #Another sort-friend jokingly called me huuri or however it's spelled #He doesn't know that my family are swedish speaking finns #It was in response to me (also jokingly) suggesting he try speaking swedish with the finns he didn't understand #(he's born here in sweden to finnish family so he speaks 'swedish finnish' so he had some issues keeping up with finnish slang) #Like we are opposites but it's okay to hate on one group? I don't get it #Anyway just that he knew he'd get that response if he tried swedish... Even if it was a joke it still hurt #To know that one language isn't safe to speak unless you want hate and physical danger #Im having a midnight ramble again huh #Anyway everything is overwhelming gonna cry myself to sleep now bye ✌️ #Also the argument that 300000 people aren't that many: thats the whole of Iceland! #Should Icelandic just not exist anymore then?

i need a girl to be tomboys with soon. or i will Die

#with a heavy heart i have to admit that i am tired of being a uhm. what is the word for incel but friendship. not friendcel... #Well you know what i mean #been like 3 years of being completely alone save for the biannual meeting i have with my bestfriend #Which is Dopeness BTW<3 but she lives in another city & i miss having someone Regular #someone Regular to MAKE INTO MY ACCOMPLICE #OMG i feel like a friendship cheater RN #caus yeah all my life i only really have one friend at a time ♯PlatonicMonogamist save for ninth grade #when everybody in my class was friends with one another Pretty much. BEST YEAR OF MY LOIF #SO MANY SHENANIGANS. & ! people would always mistake me for a weird effete fag ( which made me genuinely suicidal then ) #i miss it so much - that one hag who will not stop talking about middle school years (2) after bac. graduation #^ last time i ever made a friend... feeling really pathetic right now Stares at the ceiling emptily with big blank sparkless anime girl eye #animorphs into a dog & lies down #i know exactly why i am alone BTW ( *in barks that you can perfectly understand* ) i will still lament about this anyway Le Sigh #here are my requirements: female; must be some degree of depraved; VIRGINS ONLY. #in spirit counts for that last one. then you can join my Gangstalking Circle ( smallest one in history )

Happy Birthday to the loveliest of friends, @snoobins <3

Twin stars

A universe apart

Just close enough

To wistfully gaze at the other

Knowing yet not

How fate will lead them together

#happy birthday!! #I hope you have a great day #and spoil yourself to the fullest extent with whatever you like! #I wrote the poem first actually #then I wanted to translate that someway into art #and decided I would make something with two stars far apart #and two flowers close together #to symbolize how we once didn’t know one another at all #but now we're growing alongside one another #bathing in the light of how we admired one another #even before we became good friends #I really hope you like it!! #this isn't all I have for you though! #<3 <3 <3 #I hope you're feeling every bit as loved and appreciated as you are! #I'm so grateful we're here again at another milestone for our friendship #This year I know you'll do even greater things than the last! #just being you will always be something worth celebrating #<3 #i love you so so so much #ps you're the yellow flower (:

#maybe in another universe your parents didn't decide you need to leave abroad for good and new years are still fun #or maybe we would've drifted apart either way. maybe it wasn't the kind of friendship that survives into adulthood #or maybe some of your dad's terrible politics rubbed off on you and it's for the best that we don't talk #anyhow i guess the hole is just here forever and all i can do is kind of hope that you have one too. just for fairness' sake

#that poll just now reminded me of my Toxic Homoerotic Codependent Female Friendship in high school #there was something obsessive going on between us because 1) i wasn't even in her friend group 2) everything she said or did was annoying #there was some stockholm syndrome situation going on. also a very succession tomgreg dynamic #you know how you invite a friend somewhere and they're like 'we're on our way' and you're like who's 'we' #and it's because they're a package deal with their partner apparently. yeah that was us but platonically. if you could even call it that #anyway her sense of humour was like that of a mean girl ie backhanded compliments and jokes at other people's expenses #always saying something that would subtly put others down. i got fed up with that at the beginning of our final year #and called her out on everything that Wasn't Good. which ultimately culminated in the Divorce #well there's more to it too but i could be here the whole day #i was so obsessed with her i misstook it for romantic feelings too and confessed to her in the middle of an argument LMAO #and then proceeded to ignore all her follow up questions. but in hindsight it clearly wasn't romantic anyway #except about a year after the Divorce she retrospectively confessed to me AND THEN REFUSED TO ELABORATE WHEN. as revenge i guess #actually the downfall started when we went to another city for an event and on the last day before the train back we were supposed to go #explore the city in what was essentially a (platonic) date except she ditched me for Some Guy she just met and claimed she had to go back #home early for a family situation and that he was giving her a ride because the train would arrive too late #that wasn't the only time she would just. abandon me like that. but it was the final straw for me #anyway. defining high school experience 👍 #the only good thing to come out of it was that she thoroughly insulted a classmate of ours that i stood up for and so i gained a new friend #who is still my best friend to this day

And people bitching about Yaz’s gay arc or whatever because it doesn’t fit their personal experience need to shut up about it, really, you are not a monolith and you’re just betraying your ignorance. Just because it’s not relatable to Your personal lived experience, doesn’t mean it isn’t to others, and the casually offensive bs that is spouted in some circles is both inherently self centred and most ironically, pretty homophobic. 

#dw shit #there is sooooo much bullshit here #it's hard to unpack it all #yaz's coming of age story including something about sexuality is not weird #it's not weird it happened when she was like 24 in general!!!! #but Especially in the context of the story where we know for a fact yaz was friendless and bullied in school #went straight to a job she overworked at #then met 13 and did nothing but travel with her #like hmmm woman who has Probably not had a deep friendship with anybody let alone a woman #in her adult years #doesn't realise she's In To another woman and thinks they're just friends #is... very explainable in every way #like??? r u guys okay #it would be perfectly explainable if yaz was a social butterfly and Still didn't notice till then! #an uh #najia asking yaz if she's dating 13 and getting a nope and then asking if yaz is dating ryan is #a parent that has no idea whom their kid is into and is deliberately being Inclusive so they don't box them #and/or let them know it's alright if they Are into the same gender #basically her mum is nosy af but not homophobic the end #and tbh since sonya isn't shy about talking about dudes it's probably Super obvious to her parents that yaz Doesn't talk about dating #in a compare and contrast way

Hi hella! I love love your writing and have done so for years and liked your posts but above all else I am a social media lurker at heart. But I wanted to tell you that following you for so long I’ve seen you go off to college and strike out on your own. Your self reflection and how you move through your life is so inspiring. I feel like your proud distant auntie sometimes cheering you on from afar. Growing up and going through school and into your adulthood is so confusing and frustrating and depressing sometimes but I’m a bit on the other side now and can tell you you’re doing so well. Absolutely killing it and it’s a privilege to read about. Your openness often has me reflect on my own life! I appreciate you bestie 🫶

reading this was genuinely so emotional BESTIE WHAT THE HELL

#IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE I PROMISE I MEAN THIS IN THE MOST POSITIVE OF WAYS #because it just made me really reflective ig? like so much of my life and so many of my issues surround this huge isolation #either ive been made to feel isolated or ive used isolation as a coping mechanism or even that i romanticised my own capacity for it #but regardless i have a really rigid acceptance that im on my own through life #and as a kid that was terrifying and was probably what got me in my head so much #like staring at the enormity of it all and going 'i am alone. i am a singular vessel whose intricacies are inaccessible to anyone else' #and that is TERRIFYING. and yes while it will always be true to an extent ive realised it doesnt have to be entirely #you can share yourself with others and find love in that and friendships and it's taken me years but this year more than any #i feel like ive finally come out of a very long dark tunnel and no one else around me has any idea that any of this is a big deal to me #bc they never had any idea what i was going through #but like?? at some point or another you guys started tagging along and i overshared a shit ton lmao #and a lot of you have been here for YEARS and like. wtf you're RIGHT ive taken you guys along with me for everything #my sexuality crisis my writing journey getting a new job starting uni going into second year making and losing friendships #testing out romance listening to music watching new shows. like every part of myself that's too small and silly to share irl is something #i tell you guys without a second thought like i started this when i was SEVENTEEN and now im twenty you guys have acc watched me grow #im so emotional over this esp bc lately ive focussed mainly on the DOWNSIDES of me being online in these years #idk i needed this more than you know bestie tysm for sticking by my side and same for the rest of you <3 ily ily ily #ask
