Dawn Greeting Dusk Falling
A reimagining of the events after ‘Siege and Storm’ and a coping mechanism for the SaB S2 ending we would rather not have…
Tumblr media
She had kept a little of his shadow, he enough of her light. This is what made it possible, this meeting at the roiling edge of the Fold where Alina knew she would one day find herself.
Fifty years did he say? She knew it had been more, and still it surprised her as the seasons dragged on that love had endured — the love of so many, and the love of one above all. Even if she had to watch each one shrouded and laid in the ground. Each and every one.
What she means to do here now is neither a reckoning, nor a reconciliation. The moment is simply right. She looks into the shadows, and lifts her hand. The globe of light is muted, as though in a fog; but she knows he will not fail to see it.
“Alina.”
There is no rage in the way he says her name, not even a question. They are past that, she supposes.
One who was too young, and one who lived too long; they were here now, nearly unchanged but for her white hair worn unbound. He did not expect her to come sooner, he knew time well enough. He might have thought he knew her as well.
She did not destroy the Fold.
Thought dead after the collapse of the Chapel, legend had it that her spirit guided skiffs as they made each journey. For not a soul has been lost to the Fold since.
That was how she knew that he wasn’t lost. And the knowledge, when she realized it, caused her that day to weep with joy.
The two of them lived because they could not let the other die; when his humanity was burning away, she held on blindly to what remained and he … she could not name what he did, but in the end she knew he had kept her from falling into darkness.
He had kept — some essence, some hope? Light either way.
And a resolve not to lose her to the void.
What was left of him that day was drawn to the Fold, the only place where he could still exist.
A shadow among shadows.
“You might have left me with a fresh set of clothes. An eternity disheveled is its own unique torture.”
She startles with laughter, the unexpected joy at the even more unexpected attempt at humor freeing the tension in her shoulders. She lets herself smile at him, and his smile is genuine as he smiles back.
“Are you angry?” she asks.
“What is anger for?” is his reply.
Flame sputtering to life in sunlight has more purpose.
A silence heavy as the weight of loss they now share settles between them.
“I could not bear it if you turned from me now.”
He spoke the truth. It was the same truth she would always understand, no matter the centuries left to them, no matter their choices that will always hang in the balance.
She reaches for him with a tendril of shadow.
He holds out his hand in welcome.

A/N: For my AU sister @becauseicantthinkwritings who has been putting up with my not-fun era for longer than she should 😅

Bio/ Biodata/ About me/ Summary/ Headline etc.:
Note: This is not matrimonial website’s headline.. unless you consider it one. But no way, tumblr is meant to be cool, let it be.
Hi,
Namaste and welcome to my blog. It’s absolutely weird! I’m a Desi Munda, who can be sab ka banda.
I’m a Mechanical Engineer by profession, and a Data Analyst and Statistician. I love talking and making friends (not always. I’m reserved mostly). So I joined tumblr, where we don’t judge ourselves and others.
I love COFFEE. Period. Anytime of day or night.
I mean, tea is good. But coffee, that’s the best. (Please don’t hate me, it’s just love at first sip 😶🤤)
Well, it’d be great to get connected with you’ll, I mean if you want to.
Coming to the important stuff: I’m currently 26, and have been part of tumblr since 9 years or more. Loved it ever since. And I’m Straight.
Thanks for reading this.
S2.

Sab, I am obsessed- hello??? Your gojo fics deserve the world because he is sooo in character of being the arrogant but closed off and vulnerable dude. Ugh I can't, I'll binge your masterlist. 💕💕💕😭✨️
this is so sweet thank you bb 🥹😭 I really try to have gojo in character truly — I think my gojo is my favorite character to write because he’s so complex — I love writing the contrast of his arrogance and vulnerability— because the arrogance is truly a defense mechanism to protect himself 💕🥹
this makes me so happy 😭💕 I hope you enjoyed it babe - I appreciate you so much

I just saw on tiktok someone saying they were sick of people slut shaming Jesper. I personally haven't seen any of that but I'm not too deep in the community - however I fully believe that's something people would do bc there's toxicity in every fandom. I wondered what your thoughts were on this.
(feel free not to respond btw just figured you might have more of an insight)
im gonna preface this by saying I've made it this long in fandom by refusing to skim the surface of Discourse and bonking myself on the head every time I get sucked into to people who are WAY too online, so I don't have THAT much context for this, which means everything below is completely pulled out of my ass and might not be even remotely correct
However! I know that some folks have shared thoughts on not liking SAB S1 Jesper fucking on a job, on the grounds that it's irresponsible of him in an OOC way (which I don't like, PERSONALLY agree with? but the stuff I've seen on this hasn't even been discourse, it was all just "hey this is an opinion I have, respectfully phrased and not argumentative" so I don't particularly care to wade in lol). But the point I'm making is that I wouldn't be surprised to see a breadcrumb trail to other sides of the fandom raging against the way SAB-verse Jesper is like. A bit of a mess and also fucks a fair amount. Ergo I also wouldn't be surprised to see other people coming back at this and arguing that that opinion (that jesper in SAB is too horny) or those adjacent to it is slut shaming
My general two cents (not directly about slut shaming bc again I haven't seen any of it) is that because SAB verse Jesper is older than SOC verse Jesper he probably just has more life experience (ie isn't a 17 year old boy, notoriously not known for their sexual prowess) which I think would give him more access to additional bad coping mechanisms (like a string of one night stands or ill timed hook ups). like, he gambles in the books to self-soothe, and it's frankly also implied he uses flirting/other people to do the same, so I think the progression to an aged up Jesper being SUPER jittery on a job and using a cute boy who is DTF to settle his nerves is kinda in line with his character.

as much as I'm aware of these horrible habits, it's like the only bit of comfort I have, even though it's hardly enjoyable now because I recognize it isn't for the best. Which sucks cause now I can't even enjoy my poor coping mechanisms, but don't have the heart or willpower to go on walks outside but i still force myself to go out for a walk atleast apart from college or enjoy my hobbies again..
I can't recall the last time I made something wholeheartedly. They won't say this but it seems that my friends are tired of me talking about the same thing over and over again. Whatever I'm doing atm won't help me in the long run but for now ye sab ek taraf hai aur pattal pe khana na khaane ka dukh ek taraf hai kyunki bhandaro mein bhi abb disposable plates milti hain bhnechod pattal nhi milti!

will never understand kids who yell at their parents because they bought them iphone 11 and not iphone 14.
because mai nokia ka keypad chala rahi hu.
like some of yall had unconditional love and support from your parents who never made you feel as if you didnt deserve anything and it shows.
kyuki mere ghar pe toh har ek cheez conditional h. marks acche nahi aaye toh bahar se accha khana deserve ni karte, naye kapde deserve ni karte, doston se baat karna deserve ni karte, abey aur toh aur "tution nahi bhejenge kyuki tum education ke layak hii nahi ho" (which is what i get to hear after asking to join a tution for the first time in my life in 11th grade).
like kabhi kabar lagta h ki aisi hii zindagi honi thi toh kyu 1st se 8th tak jee jaan lagake mehnat karke hamesha full marks laayi mai? uski appreciation kabhi di nahi, vo ab ho nahi raha toh sunne ko bhot milta h. saala uss time ye sab chodhke thoda jee hii liya hota, atleast life ka ek part toh khushi se nikalta. ab lag raha h 16 saal ki zindagi toh barbad hii kardi maine. uss time ki mehnat ab matter ni karti, par ab mehnat ho nahi rahi h.
it just...gets unbearable to watch other people living their life after a while ya know? like you look at people who are going out, having fun with their friends, doing what they love, having good relationships with their family, and just, like their problems are so much different? they may not have their life together either, but you envy them because you don't have the privilege to do the same as them, because you know you're the one to blame for the subjects you chose, the life you chose. you see them actually living, and realise that youre still stuck in a loop, waiting for your life to begin, as you have for as long as you have been alive.
a couple days back one of my friends adopted a dog and i had a breakdown over it because....ye toh mai bhi deserve karti hu na yaar. mujhe kab milega ye? kabhi milega bhi? abhi tak toh nahi mila. aur ab toh milne ke chances bhi itne kam hain kyuki dena mujhe JEE h.
you can't help but feel hopeless.
pehle lagta tha jab kuch bhi sahi nahi tha ki....koi nahi, atleast academics ho raha h. atleast acche dost hain ab bhi. atleast ek acche future ka prospect h.
and then you lose it all. nothing to comfort you. nothing to make you feel as if atleast one thing in your life is going right, because it isn't. because your life is just one huge black hole now sucking away your happiness, your sense of identity. mujhe khud nahi pata mai kon hu. ab toh dost bhi chutne lage hain.
like, outwardly yes ill work hard and get out of this, but what then? people say "it's just 2 years uske baad sab bhot easy hoga" but what they don't understand is that it's not just 2 years. ive worked hard my entire life, and im sick of the constant guilt, constant expectations, constant pressure. i dont know if i have it in myself to hold on for 2 years more.
fir agar tumhare coping mechanisms maladaptive daydreaming and internet addiction h then toh hogya bas tumhara.
i could go on for a millennia with this rant. abhi toh family trauma bhi touch nahi kiya h. but then that will just be another proof of "yes, here's another thing going wrong in your life"
like, i have to remind myself each day that i dont have anything to be shameful about, i dont have anything that i dont deserve. love shouldnt be conditional. support shouldnt be conditional. especially if love and support are from your family and if they are based on a handful of figures.
like if at this point if i go and start doing drugs and alcohol to get some relief then can my parents blame me? but i cant do that, because guilt!
when will this end? i just wanna sleep.
par sone ke liye 5 min shanti se letna padta h and mai apne khudke thoughts tolerate kar paane ki ability kho chuki hu.

Twenty Things I Have Learned Before Entering My 20s:
i. If it's good: Alhamdulillah. If it's bad: Alhamdulillah.
ii. Romanticize life! As cliché as it might sound, it indeed is very important! This is exactly how my coping mechanism works: this world is ruthless, it's evil most of the time, but the world can also be a very very pretty place! I am a simple human, I try to cling to the prettier side of things more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
iii. No matter how good things are between me and the people I have in my life, if there's something I would rather not share about myself, and if it's not affecting the relationships I have with them, then no, I am not obligated to do so. Not everything feels good to be shared, and it's a feeling I have come to know as very common. You can keep certain things to yourself and still be a good person and a good friend.
iv. Not to sound contradictory but opening up most of the times does feel good! Letting the thoughts floating in your mind to gently land before someone can be very relieving and not as dreadful as you might have thought. Do it more often with the right people and allow yourself some peace.
v. If life gives you cats, you! pet! them! Forever thinking about how in documentary 'Kedi', I heard a Turkish proverb that says — "A cat meowing at your feet, looking up at you is life smiling at you." :']
Tumblr media
vi. Platonic love holds the same importance and place as romantic love does! Both are love, and both are supposed to be treated like one; gently, delicately, carefully, respectfully, and most importantly, with its sweet reciprocation.
vii. Never shy away from "I don't know"s! No one knows how to deal with everything, and it is alright! Let people know that this might or might not be your first life and there are still things you have no information about! And it's OKAY! If their reaction discourages you, then don't ponder over it much. I have come to know that the words "I don't know" are indeed very magical, and magic is all about courage. Not everyone loves magic, not everyone's okay with certain kinds of courage, but the world still goes on.
viii. The act of exploration is not always the one where you take a huge backpack with yourself all set to travel the oceans and wander around. It's also buying a drink you have never tried before, praying to God that it's decent enough. It's about listening to an album and leaving it midway because it's just not for you. It's also about finding out what color suits you best and what's just not meant to be. These little explorations are what make you an explorer. The word might weigh heavy on some tongues, but to me, I have always been an explorer.
ix. Try not to hold grudges. Honestly. Let things go and embrace yourself with the calmness it brings with it.
x. Please do not be rude to your parents. In most cases, they are indeed trying their best to be a parent. Be gentle with them.
xi. if no one got me, i know my siblings got me. (i love u two so much (never mention this to me, ever. please. thanks.))
xii. In most cases, actually go with your first instinct. Whether it's running away from a person or getting yourself a new, never-tried-before attire.
xiii. Sab ne aisa mehsoos karaya hoga ki you are always a part of some unheard competition: age wise, grades wise, taste wise etc. But to be very honest, if you don't want it that way, there's literally no need to bother yourself thinking about it. You are moving forward in this so-called race marathon at your own pace. Just try to have fun with it.
xiv. The behaviours towards you are mostly (not always, though!) reciprocated.
xv. Friends !!! Friendships !!! Jitna ho sake, hold on to them achche se !! They were strangers once, jinke life got intertwined with yours in either the most mundane way or the most insane way! how beautiful is that, honestly?

xvi. If you're putting in your efforts, don't berate yourself for expecting some in return. It's all selfless act but it also should be somewhat mutual.
xvii. Those people who preach about living in the moment are actually right. Live in the moment! Baad ka baad mein chordo if it's too much pain or overwhelming. Majority of what's bothering you actually is just in your head (i'm not good at convincing myself on this either but i am trying my best). Aur waise bhi, you gotta be present in the moment to cheer it as a sweet or a bittersweet memory aage. Imagine going through it all and not even remembering how good it felt back then before the consequences (that goes away as fast as they arrive, mostly) hit.
Tumblr media
xviii. With utmost sincerity, expect good things to happen to you and watch the magic unfold. Be gentle to yourself and watch your life copy that trait for you.
xix. It’s never just black and white. Never just right and wrong. Never just "they hate me" and "they love me". There's always a grey area. Always an okay in-between. Always a coexistence just right. There is always a medium ground. Almost always a 3D view of a situation that looks 2D. Never be too quick to judge another creature or to jump to a conclusion.
xx. Everything passes. This too shall pass.

Tag Game - Fandom Edition
thanks to @phantomato​ for the tag :)
Your Name: m. / callstolike
Your First Fandom: in terms of actually being engaged in fandom as a community, it’d be bbc merlin. in terms of obsessive interest in media, it’d be harry potter - i didn’t know about fandom but i visited fansites and read and re-read the books over and over, and before i had internet access played pretend as a kid about it too.
Your Current Fandom: shadow and bone, hp (eternally), bbc merlin, paramore if we’re talking bandom. once something is a fandom for me it’s eternal though, so anything i’ve been into before is on the cards. also horror in general is something of an obsession, and i love we have always lived in the castle by shirley jackson.
How did you first get into fandom? I vaguely remember reading fic for wicked the musical as a 14yo, and being obsessed with billy elliot, but i wasn’t really aware of fandom as a community til i discovered it via bbc merlin and paramore, which are still two of my favourites.
How long have you been engaging in fandom spaces? since about 2008 roughly, although on and off because my anxiety used to be so bad i couldn’t maintain any social media/online presence.
How often do you read fanfic? It’s really very variable for me, and i’m more interested in reading fic for certain fandoms for others. i hadn’t read much recently for maybe 6 or so months, but i’ve been reading a lot recently.
Top three characters from your current fandom? i tend to focalise my entire interest in a fandom based on a character or pairing, so i’ll go for one of those for each: tom riddle for hp, the darkling from sab, and morgana for merlin. i’m predictably drawn to villains and antagonists lol.
Have you ever written a fic for a fandom and if so, shout it out! i’ve written for a couple of fandoms, including gotham and star wars, which i’ve either orphaned or deleted, but i have one fic for sab - the quality of mercy - which is a darklina one which i’m still quite happy with. i have another one which has been in half-finished for over a year which i might finally finish if i can get my arse into gear.
Have you ever drawn fan art for a fandom? No, i have awful fine motor skills to the point where drawing a straight line is hard, but if i could i would. i daydream about writing music on piano for certain characters but i haven’t written music in about ten years, so lol. i do feel like one song i wrote as a moody teenager is very aleks though.
Share a personal headcanon that you feel strongly about: i have one for both aleksander morozova and tom riddle: that merzost and horcruxes respectively are most interestingly interpreted (in my personal opinion) as forms of self-harm, the twisting of survival mechanisms into painful and destructive self-mutilation which only makes them weaker. as someone who identifies with those self-destructive drives i find it hard not to feel that both of them want to hurt on some level, or feel that self-destruction is a road to what they feel is necessary or desirable. it makes more sense of them as fallible individuals and victims of the world they exist in and are traumatised by than the assumption that they have crossed some invisible and incomprehensible magical line in their particular worlds.
You’re trying to convince a friend to get into your current fandom(s) with you. What episode, clip, or scene are you showing them? as a rule i don’t try to get people into things that they might not feel drawn to, but this youtube video of all of ed nygma’s scenes in gotham s1 made me immediately fascinated with (by?) him.
And finally, what does fandom mean to you? i would say community, because it was the first experience i had of other people who met my level of intensity in terms of obsession and love, and because i’ve met a few really lovely people through it. but also acceptance for the same reasons. and escape.
i tag @dead-ghost-walking, @malewife-darkling, @girlriddle, @getoutofthewater, and any mutual or follower who might like to participate <333.

Hi Jalebi, sab tikh. After reading your recent thought about khushi something came to my mind. Yes khushi was lonely so don't you think that she did that swami drama, making his room like her stunts to get away from thoughts like y he married me, y suddenly this and at the same time she was also going through crisis like her family didn't want her, inlaws and husband didn't want her. Her whole suicide thing came from there. She didn't think if she died any1's life will get affected, they will cry on her funeral and then will carry on. This step came from her suppressed emotions from 5 or 6 months and her silly antics were her espace mechanism. What do u think about this? Thank u for this lovely blog and sorry for such a long question.
Hello Anon,
Yes, sab theek :)
Yes, I do feel there was a sense of her 'getting back' at Arnav and keeping herself busy, but given the level of immaturity in her actions it is seen that some people do behave childishly in state of extreme stress/anxiety.
Everything she does to Arnav feel's like a child's play. Changing covers, putting wallpapers of her choice, putting up pink curtains and fairylights and in a slight state of constant happiness did make me question a lot of things. I mean we've seen comedy in IPK before - remember Arnav's iconic "kya bolu ab!" - and the way Khushi behaved in perhaps the most stressful period of her life left me with many questions. I often wonder if I'm just reading too deeply into their attempt at comedy.
Khushi was also going through extreme isolation. Every relationship she loved turned away from her or held her responsible for one of the most traumatic part of her life. So even though she gets pieces of her family back by Holi and is aware that Arnav isn't indifferent to her - perhaps she feels more at ease to 'act out'.
I say act out because I truly find it hard to understand what she's actually doing in those months. And I think why this is discussed a lot is because the show stops showing us about Khushi. Until the elopement - even though IPK is largely Arnav's story - we see enough of Khushi to understand her. Be it her heartbreak during Diwali, her resistance to marrying Shyam, her realizing her love, the effect of Teri Meri on her and so on.
But after that we stop seeing Khushi outside the lens of how her scene affects Arnav. So we literally have no guide of whether or not Khushi realizes that Arnav has the power to kick Payal out and irritating him is actually harmful or that Arnav is shown to be verbally very abusive so, again, annoying him is harmful. So we never understand if Khushi is acting out with this knowledge at the back of her mind or she has cocooned herself into a shell of madness to just get through the months.
She even states that she'll irritate Arnav enough so he kicks her out by six months (thus that's how she sees her escape from this marriage) but yet again, logically it doesn't make sense considering it will terribly affect Payal's marriage.
Like that is what at stake here.
Arnav's cordial relation with the Guptas and his approval of Akash and Payal's match plays a MASSIVE role in letting that relationship work in the Raizada household. So if Arnav kicks out Khushi, there's no way this would NOT hurt Payal's marriage.
Understanding Khushi post wedding, after a point, becomes each fan's understanding of psychology and what they see in the show because in a way everyone is right.
If someone thinks Khushi is this brave soul who can always get back at Arnav - they're right,
if someone thinks Khushi is actually going through immense trauma and regressing into childish behavior as a response to the trauma - they're right,
if someone is thinking that Khushi is truly a happy person and will find joy regardless of situation - they're right,
if someone theorizes that Khushi actually turned numb to the whole situation and didn't care a penny for anything and just did this to piss Arnav showing she didn't care for his anger and actually all her smiles and kiddish laughter died he minute he was out of the door - they're right,
if someone thought this is how Khushi, now more comfortable with Arnav post Holi, exerts her influence in his life on a subconscious level - they're right too.
Hope you liked this answer :D
Best,
- Jalebi
P.S: making comedy out of suicide though was absolutely unforgivable and nothing could ever explain that.

respectful smooches to u both <33 and u guys are so real for the t4t like yeah of course they would why wouldnt they. also cowboys r so gender like cmon its right there!!!!
also adore the idea of hanzo being like gender is very irrelevant, like for someone who is so close to literal celestial beings it simply feels appropriate for him to carry a similar air about him, like no construct just vibes
also to touch back on the zoo, you literally have the biggest brain ever with the bird stuff, like duh??? ofc he would!!!!!!! like the mechanical arm is such a perfect built in perch for the animals. I could see him getting little bird claws engraved if he rlly missed them after the mission :[[
(not to even mention dragon anon’s angst like girl i am not god’s strongest soldier!)
and kiriko helping heal the cub like do u want me dead answer honestly ???? like my heart is NOT strong enough for that one either!!!
let my boys be happy and have lazy mornings with cheesy 80s music they would enjoy it (hanzo would pretend he hates it, he doesnt. he is very fond)
sabs :]]
Heehee it just makes sense!! 💖💖💖
But YES, you get me, Hanzo refers to himself as the Dragon, gender is such a nonissue for him. But once he joins ovw, I think that is when he really explores this side of him, being free to do so, picking out clothes he can be comfy in, choosing new hairstyles, etc.
Haha thank you!! I honestly think Cole having a bird connection like his Amari family is highly underrepresented. A Harris Hawk or similar would suit him, having such a sharp eye *like* a hawk. (Somewhat related, but if you want a fic featuring eagle Cole and wolf Hanzo, check out this fic I was a part of a while back) That bird mark engravings idea is sooooo cute, I love it 🥹
And I just love Kiriko’s and Hanzo’s interactions. I need more of them honestly.
And yes, let them be happy and lame together, its what they deserve 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 (Hanzo hums them when he thinks Cole isn’t listening, but Cole knows)

Sorry friends I need to freak out about Ateez for a second
Ok so! Firstly I love that Yeosang is the Blue Bird delivery driver like that’s such a clever callback to Halazia. Secondly Hongjoong and his goat - I don’t know why but I love it and it gives me Jesper and his goat from SaB. Honestly thought that San was naked the first time I watched that piece, just because of the lighting and he got no sleeves! Ok mechanic Yunho owns my whole heart now, I love that they dirtied him up a little bit instead of him being perfectly clean because any good mechanic has dirt on them. Yeosang’s coat in the last scene is so cool and his gloves with the bones on I need his whole outfit actually. Then the sound! The music in the beginning is so cowboy/western I love it I really hope it carries through the album if not the whole of the title track. Ok then the academy… I have so many questions. Are they boys dropouts? Are they going to raid it? I need to know!
I’m just so excited this is my first Ateez comeback and I’m loving it!

just thinking about how in skin, sab was expressing that no matter what people were saying about her, she knew she would be okay as long as he was there with/for her. because “she loved him” but then things changed and he wasn’t there anymore - but still wanted to be ok good terms. then they both went through the difficulties of last year without each other. listening to vicious with skin in mind is heartbreaking!
Extremely heartbreaking! I also think Skin as a whole is such a defense mechanism ( for lack of better word) like, she starts off saying “maybe we could have been friends “ and then it becomes “you can’t get under my skin if I don’t let you” but obviously, it gets under her skin if she wished they could’ve been friends. And having him by her side helped a lot, with all the tabloids and everything she might’ve been getting a lot of hate but she still “won” at the time and now, she has got all the hate AND she “lost” him.
The whole situation is heartbreaking and I definitely relate a lot. I don’t know the extent of the relationship but the line in viscious, “When you're insecure, could be me, could be her, You just run to whoever is winnin'”describes a similar relationship I was in at a time. It sounds like a very manipulative, toxic relationship.
