aint they cute? lol barbatos found out quick but after seeing Icarus smile so brightly, and that with his master even tho he was wary of diavolo at first, for the first time since the summoning he let them have fun. that was also the day he got a vision of Icarus future in which he was his younger brother. Thats how Barbatos decided to ask Icarus if he would like to be adopted by him.
@eternallydaydreaming2015 i did another one lol

This Week in History: Memorial Day
During this week in 1971, Memorial Day is observed on a new date. If you don’t know much about the history of this weekend’s holiday, then you are not alone. :) To some degree, its origins remain shrouded in mystery.
It all began with the Civil War—the deadliest conflict in American history. More than 600,000 soldiers were killed, and those deaths left gaping holes in communities. Americans all over the country began holding springtime tributes to their fallen soldiers. Soon, some of these tributes started to become more formal.
Would you believe that at least 25 cities claim that *their* observances were the ones that started it all?!
Waterloo, New York, is one such city. On May 5, 1866, the city may have held an observance in which all businesses were closed so citizens could honor the war dead. A century later, both a congressional resolution and a presidential proclamation would recognize Waterloo as the official birthplace of Memorial Day.
Perhaps they acted in haste? Since then, researchers have uncovered information that casts doubt on the federal designation. Potentially, a simple mistake in an 1883 newspaper article was the source of all the trouble.
Columbus, Georgia, is another city that may have started the holiday. The story continues here: https://www.taraross.com/post/tdih-memorial-day

alright so i'm seriously in the dark, what happened?
it'll be easiest for me to quote the reddit posts I read on it.
Going under a cut due to length so I don't kill anyone with a wall of text.
From u/awkwardtiefling:
"For those who make it to this thread first, a summary:
Per(lead guitar aka Fire/Dew) is connected in some way with a model named Paris. Paris supported Trump and has posted culturally insensitive content in the past, i.e. a bellydancer looking costume tagged as "g*psy" amongst other typically associated ones, and posted a photo on Thanksgiving while wearing a stereotypical Halloween store style Native American costume, war bonnet included.
They were also upset that she had a weird phase with King Tut and were unhappy that she was "sexualizing a child." He died at 19 so that's not really the issue. Just seemed like a weird and ultimately harmless phase.
From there, they assumed they may have been dating and got very, very upset. She's in a long term relationship with Don McLean of American Pie fame and I believe he's also in a relationship with someone as well? But they've dug through old photos to jump to conclusions and presumably harassed Per off IG with shitty messages, which is unfortunate because now he's being called childish for completely stepping away and removing himself from the issue. Paris is still being hounded as being racist and dangerous(because she supported Trump and obviously hates all LGBTQ+ people).
He's going to care more for her even if she's not squeaky clean than what some deranged kiddos on Twitter think about her. Sucks for him and the rest of the group, though. I have no doubt they'd start pestering the rest them about this.
edit:
Since I know they're poking around Reddit, it's one thing to point out the issues with a person and it's another entirely to harass someone off the internet because of who they're associated with. Some of you certainly did just that and need to accept that some of you needled him into reacting the way he did. Per is likely fully aware and just happens to be able to overlook Paris's past for who she is now.
As far as Paris goes, she probably isn't going to take any of your concerns into consideration. Nobody reacts well to being bombarded and she's just going to dig her heels in and ignore you the more you do it. If she's ever truly regretful for what she did, she'll apologize when she's ready or has a PR person badger her into it."
From u/SchoolfGhoul:
"Pword stand for Per. It's the real name of the lead guitar ghoul. Twitter folk seem to have a real issue with just using his name. They were complaining about the fact that apparently he doesn't like being called 'Dewdrop' and were making a real drama out of thinking like the fandom had upset him or something. The guitarist is a 40 year old man who probably doesn't give 2 shits about some nickname some fans made. However clearly he does take issue with all the drama and vilification that's being going about over who he chooses to be friends with. It's all really stupid and thanks to a few idiotic, immature teenagers who can't deal with someone else spending time with a guy who they have some obsession with, Per shut down his Instagram. I don't blame him really. The man has had a successful career since the late 90s as a Death Metal musician where he could play guitar without being harrassed on social media. I enjoy speaking to the Swedish Death Metal community group on FB. It's where all the cool fans and musicians hang out."
From u/ya_boi_jayy:
"It's a load of horse shit, I'm sure at this point you already know what's going on but I'm adding on to the story. I was added to a Ghost group chat a while ago for some reason. Here are some things they've said about Per.
"manz is a grown ass adult acting like he's 12"
"He woke up and chose emo😭"
"like babe, you are not the main character. don't get me wrong, i love per but.. ARE YOU THAT DESPERATE FOR SOME 😺"
"yeah he posted some edgy lyrics in his story and deleted his account an hour after"
"Per bestie I loved u sm, all this for some 😺😺? HDNDB"
"man he was so desperate to get his 🍆💦"
"they have matching bracelets?? they're in sweden together? they're definitely sleeping together"
"he deleted his Instagram last time when he got caught cheating on his ex fiancé, he is definitely sleeping with her"
This is such bullshit, people can't mind their own business. It's fucked up. For some reason they hate him now meanwhile yesterday they were all like "omg he's so cute i love him sm 🥺🥺🥺" PLUS they're all saying that they're the mature ones.
Here's what Per posted on his story before deleting it.
"Just cause you don't understand what's going on. Don't mean it don't make no sense. And just 'cause you don't like it, don't mean it ain't no good. And let me tell you something. Before you go taking a walk in my world. You better take a look at the real world. Cause this ain't no Mister Roger's Neighborhood. Can you Say "Feel like shit"? Yeah, maybe sometimes I do feel like shit ain't happy 'bout it but I'd rather feel like shit than be full of shit. And if I offended you. Oh, I'm sorry but maybe you need to be offended. But here's my apology and one more thing, FUCK YOU!""
So, yeah. All this shit.

“Heroism doesn’t always happen in a burst of glory. Sometimes small triumphs and large hearts change the course of history.”
You don’t have to be a superhero to express your gratitude on Memorial Day. Just remember — If you really want to thank a soldier, be the kind of American worth fighting for. 🇺🇸

Just had the startling realisation that i no longer remember redacted's voice, nor can i make redacted's face move in my memories; i only see blurry grey tv static and words as if I'm reading them.
It's all just knowledge that i used to remember these things as vivid memories and flashbacks. I know we sang together, i know i used to know each facial expression that happened in each snippet of memory scenes, i know the words we spoke, i know we laughed.
And now I couldn't even say for sure if the laughter that sometimes plays in my head belongs to redacted.
I think I'm in shock about this, but tbh it's about damn time.
#7yrs today since we met and i only realised this weekend that i should instead be celebrating this day as the day i escaped my past envrmnt#over 4yrs since i last heard any of these sounds or saw any of these movements. nearly 4yrs since it all ended. so yeah#it's about fucking time i start to feel a bit better about this aspect of the horrors. i think when the shock passes this will#feel immensely freeing and even a bit exciting. like i might have space in my head for someone new and can actually try to find them.#it has been one very long rollercoaster of a day and night. like a rollercoastr with loops and a free fall and a water feature etc etc#anyways i just finally opened the packaging on the card i bought to write for myself when i felt like celebrating completing my masters#and i used it to very briefly note my masters bc thst still doesnt feel like a celebrating thing but eh i did it. and then wrote about this#and yeah. i think i might go to sleep now i feel a teeny tiny bit better than ive felt in a long while. i like this feeling.#i know everything isnt fixed and i know ive barely elaborated who redacted was but i feel like this realisation is a nice step for me.#💖 good things happening to caits 2022 🥳#7 yrs today since i moved to this city and freed myself from the bubble that was my life for the first 18yrs and 11months!!!#i am so tired. but these things are worth celebrating. and im proud of me for still being here. even with current me's mess and horrors.#like. i especially cannot stress how much i thought this forgetting would never happen for memories of redacted. this is so wild.

48 days not getting high~
I've hit where I haven't noticed any other changes from my long break but nearly 50 days~
I wanna go 100 days just to see how ill feel lol but I do wanna smoke but the want isn't really "I NEED IT" it's more like "man it would be nice to smoke rn lol"
but it is nice to say I have enough self control to stay off it for nearly 50 days~ my tolerance is gonna be so fucking low lmao if I do end up picking up a blunt/joint I better baby the hell out of it lmao
