#my baby has grown up

[hedgehog-moss]

The farmer I buy hay (and some firewood) from hasn't had time for deliveries yet, and he texted me yesterday to ask what I needed most urgently, hay or wood. Selflessly, I said hay.

That /is/ the gate for hay deliveries! Great memory, Pirlouit. I see what are the important spots in your mental map.

I hope you realise that I'm sacrificing myself for you. By telling our neighbour to prioritise your food over my comfort.

But even if I didn't, I would prioritise you and your hay because I love you. I would freeze to death to ensure you are fed

Would you share your hay with me, though?

I see.

#crawling along #i think of gollum's ''what has it got in its pocketses?'' every time pirlouit tries to raid my pockets with mounting frustration #your big nose doesn't fit in my coat pockets!! stop trying #and you don't even like mints #i tried to give him one once for a taste and it was too minty for him and he spent 30s panting with his mouth wide open #like my baby cousin when she stayed over and forgot her kid toothpaste and had to use my grown-up one #same look of betrayal

I'VE ONLY HAD MR. OBISANYA FOR ONE EPISODE BUT IF ANYTHING HAPPENED TO HIM I WOULD KILL EVERYONE AND THEN MYSELF.

#Ted Lasso #Ted Lasso Spoilers #Sam Obisanya #The way he rushes into the hug sobbing #SAMMY BABY #I would 100% do the same if my mom showed up promise you #I would be the fully grown adult sobbing in my mom or dad's hug #Also the afropop at the end and the team was just chef's kiss #Bumbercatch is an electrician! #He has so many layers

sudden yearning for time travelling teen jiang fengmian lands at lotus pier fic that winds up being about a perfectly nice kid having a varying series of "oh no. i don't like that. that's a lot" reactions.

#i think in order for this to be satisfying i have to give grace and interiority to teenmian #i'm picturing an older teen like 18ish? maybe even early 20s? #big crush on csr he's already pretty sure isn't going to work out #but at least he'll always have wei-xiong #anyway this is my ploy to give jfm a chance at an ugly crying meltdown #he's trying so hard to be even keeled and like #maybe take this as an evil vision designed to teach him something #but somewhere in between my crush stole my man and then they died #my whole sect burned #my grown ass son who is older than me making the vibe sooooo weird #and my grandson! child of my dead???? daughter?????? #is just like yeah he never talks about you. no never never #and then wwx blows into town and idk somehow they all end up at dinner together and jfm politely calls lqr a punk ass bitch in front of lwj #because what???? context clues suggest lqr has the fucking nerve to not like wei xiong's baby after All That #only for adult son with the weird vibes #to imply only filial piety is keeping him from naming the real #punk ass bitch #anyway this ends with jfm crying because clearly he marries yuanyuan and she HATES HIM and then his own son ALSO HATES HIM #and would rather stupid Lan-er-gongzi #be his dad. #if you like lqr so much why don't you just join the lan sect then????? #and that's how jc learns he didn't get it all from his mama #jc didn't mean it he was stressed! this isn't his dad it's an a-ling sized kid. but it's still stressful

I got- I can't!

Imagine being 15, you've grown up your whole life with this one belief in this one God and you were told you were Chosen by Him, for Him. And you're 15. You believe so fully in the spirit of your religion, not necessarily the word, that you want to go to a non-religious school to try and help other kids maybe find your God because you genuinely believe that could be helpful to some of them, because it's all you know, and it's helped other strangers (human trafficking victims she helped in the black pit before) so why not other kids her age? You're 15 and all you can think about is helping others. And you start thinking about your religion, and reading books, and asking questions and you come to the conclusion that maybe your God and His Father aren't actually all that great. Maybe the church you're in has done some really bad things that you can't possibly make up for. Maybe that church is still doing bad things. And then you find out your family is actually in a cult for that God, not just part of the normal church, and you suddenly have to undo all the cult shit in your brain you were raised with, while that cult stuff you know about is actually useful to your friends, like having that knowledge is helpful for them! You're 15 and you stop going home. You have no real adult supervision or carer, just your other 15 year old friends.

Imagine you're 16, you're gay and figuring that out on top of navigating your first full romantic relationship and being the sole creator and cleric to a new God that you honestly find to be very two dimensional and empty. You're on a quest to find an evil being and stop them. You nearly die. Your friends nearly die. You're 16. You're 16 and feel something calling out to you, you know it's divine because you've felt that sort of pull before, but you've never felt one like this. You find memories and hints and pieces and you figure out that the evil being you have to stop, isn't evil, she's just hurting. She's hurt and She's a God. She's your God, and she's so happy to see you, and she has so many ideas, and so many hopes.

You're 17. You've spent your rest time (summer vacation) tearing across the world chasing down and defeating another evil thing that you and your friends accidentally released in the first place. Your God is with you, you have no time for Her. No time for anything but trying to survive and stay sane. You know She's disappointed in you, but you're one person -ONE PERSON- and you're 17. You missed your birthday. again. You've saved the world; again. You're so fucking tired -like always. You're Chosen, and alone, and have no idea what to do with your life, let alone your God. You aren't very good at school, but you go to every class. You're drowning as you try to rewrite your understanding of the world from what you grew up with, having no idea how to do anything without a book and godly hand to guide you. You only ever followed before, your new God is demanding you Lead. You don't know how. You're only 17. You see your horrible, abusive parents spitting abuse and racist rhetoric at your baby brother, who you haven't seen in two years, on the front steps to your school and for the first time ever you are filled with righteous fury. Your God answers your call, not knowing what you need but so eager to help, eager for your attention, she starts talking to you but you're busy -why can't she understand that you're fucking busy? trying to not die, trying to be safe, trying to keep your friends alive, trying to navigate a world that hates you, you're 17 and you're busy goddammit just wait!- and she snaps back at you and flees. The next time you see Her, maybe an hour later, She's got a creature with Her that nearly destroyed you and your friends last year sitting in her lap, so smug to see you again.

You're 17- no, 16- no, 15 years old and you're expected to build and carry the world on your shoulders, Chosen from birth, raised a lamb to follow a Shepard, not to be followed behind. You have no one and nothing and everyone expects everything and you can't back up, you can't pause because if you do someone dies and doesn't come back. You have to be a hero, a chosen, a saint. The steps behind you crumble to dust with each step you take forward and the new one is already cracking under your weight. There are only wrong choices. There's no hand reaching for you. God, you were taught, will save and guide you. God knows best. Why is your God looking to you, a mortal human, to be saved, raised and guided? You're a child.

You're just a child.

You just want to go home, wherever that is. You thought it was your God, but She's not exactly helping you out either, is She? She's just disappointed. Like everyone else. Like you.

You're 17. You think it would have been better to never do any of this. It would have been easier to stay, blind and naive. Sometimes you think you should have stayed in heaven. Sometimes you think about the God you killed by not being good enough for it. Sometimes you lay on the floor and stare at the ceiling and pretend you don't exist for awhile. Sometimes you work your body so hard you forget it's there and your mind shuts up and you exist without being you. Sometimes you wish you never asked any questions or read any books. You're 17, but sometimes you wish you were 15, with no idea yet.

You're 17. You wish you were good enough.

Angsty Neanderthal teenager and his blind little sister. I gave them names but I'm too timid to share yet lol. I'm developing their story arc far more than the main character's 😳 they took over my mind ever since I thought of them existing.

#personal project #paleolithic #neanderthal #so uhm I HAVE AN ENDING THOUGHT OUT #at last #I have the story beats planned out #I have some key scenes #but still needs to be filled out waaaayyyy more #I think what will make up the core of the story experience are the little things. the character interactions #misadventures #etc #I day dream about these things but haven't written them out or placed them anywhere in the story #it's those things that will reinforce the theme softly. in little tiny bites #so that when a character does something related to the theme it doesn't come out of nowhere #the character has been exposed to it and experienced it time and time again #until they get the aha moment and apply what they've learnt during a critical moment #(I'm talking about Tam here. but it also applies to neanderteen's arc) #there will be a slow timeskip btw #the characters gradually grow up in the story #I had a moment. wanted to see my baby characters all grown up ;-; #and in ACTION

putting your fist through a thick sheet of glass (i know you don't want to) on AO3

Written for The Big Resurrection Event (@tlt-big-resurrection), including artwork from @the-purple-duck

Harrowhark Nonagesimus and Gideon Nav have always been at each other’s throats, and the animosity has only intensified since the death of Harrow’s parents. But when a car accident leaves Gideon without any memories of her past, Harrow sees a chance at the clean slate she’s wanted for years. Becoming involved in Gideon’s recovery assuages some of the guilt, but as she and Gideon become closer and increasingly involved in each other's lives, Harrow worries that some of her secrets may be more than she can atone for.

“It’s wrong to decide you don’t like this place just because it’s the Devildom, or that you don’t like someone just because they’re a demon. You can’t pass judgment on someone before you know them. You have to take the time to discover what they’re like on the inside. And once I started doing that… Before I knew it, I suddenly found that I’d made a lot of friends here.”

— Luke (Chapter 72-4)

headcanon that scorpius was a sick child and was in and out of hospital constantly, perhaps related to astoria's blood curse but not directly. his immune system isnt very strong, and everytime he gets sick they're terrified that it's the blood curse but also whatever else it could be, because it's always so sudden and so intense and they call healers over to the house who recommend this delirious feverish 4 year old is hospitalised immediately, and you'd think it'd get easier to some extent because they'd be used to it, but everytime they feel like this is it, this is the time he'll walk in to the hospital and not walk out again

#this headcanon has no purpose im just thinking of scorpius in bed like a sickly victorian child with scarlet fever or something #asking if he'll make it to sunrise lmfao #so then he hates hospitals with a passion #my friend from school was in them constantly he was even a make a wish kid and he can not fucking stand the places so #headcanon scorpius becomes a healer anyway lmao #im sick and this is how im coping by putting baby scorp in hospital lmfao #it just made draco that little bit more protective #lucius made an insensitive comment about it once and draco was ready to throw hands #this headcanon doesnt really go anywhere ive just decided scorpius was a sick child #he has sick child energy lmfao #he still knows some of his doctors/healers because he was there so frequently #just imaging lil scorp in a hospital bed and draco and astoria are sleeping in the room on like uncomfortable chairs and the fever finally #breaks and hes like uh daddy im hungry and its like 4am but draco couldnt care less cause scorp hasnt been able to eat anything for days #let alone ask for food directly and baby scorp is wondering why his parents are acting so damn weird just cause he asked for some toast #but once hes grown up whenever he gets sick its on such a lower level than what it used to be when he was a kid because his immune system #got better that he struggles to gauge when other people would usually stop trying to do daily activities and albus has to start wrestling #scorpius back to bed instead of going to class cause scorpius really youre practically dying and hes like pfff you wanna see dying? use tha #timeturner one more time and go back to see me at literally any point between 2 and 10 i am FINE #(he absolutely was not fine) #scorpius malfoy #albus potter #draco malfoy #hpcc #scorbus #this is so many tags im so sorry

These shots are so vital and important to Ricky’s story. Last year on opening night of HSM he saw his parents hugging and thought they were getting back together, that nothing was actually changing. He was so desperate for that, so naïve, grasping for any sign of hope. So when that was the furthest thing from the truth it ended up breaking him. Sending him down a path of self destructive tendencies that hurt not only him but the people around him. But now he sees them hugging knows they are not back together and is so at peace with it because of his growth and because he can accept change now and it can't break him not like it used to, and all of that is due to the way loving Gina changed him. Showed him how you can fall in real deep love with someone and it can change your whole view of the world and of love and of relationships.

#ricky bowen #hsmtmts #rina #this full circle moment is my favorite thing from the finale like honestly the way he has grown and accepted that people change #that not all couples are meant to last and that’s ok and that there IS something better on the other side of that #he kept himself in the dark in the shadows for so long because he couldn’t see a light at the end of the never ending tunnel of sadness #that came with his family falling apart but then Gina showed up and brought LIGHT into his life he was able to see and feel JOY again #because of her loving her allowed him to see a new path a new future a new way of life a way of life where everyone is better off than they #were before he can see that his parents co existing is better than them in a loveless marriage that they are able to be better to #each other when they are apart and he could see that before but now he can and it’s again BECAUSE of Gina #she changed everything for him that’s why they are soulmates baby!

Has anyone read the convos with Rui and Touya about Tsukasa's personality? I think the majority of those who love characters study have seen it, because I kinda want to bring it out:

What do you guys think about his personality after knowing his past? Is it a facade he chose upon himself (not saying he's like Mafuyu) or maybe it's his new personality? Or maybe it's a mask for his calm and too normal and not stand out personality? We never know about that.

Or do we? There (might be) signs where he shows to be calmer and quieter than usual, like he let his guard down and let himself be free from his loud and confident personality before picking it up again. I'm not too sure about it since it could probably be his growth in character and decided to be more mature when there's a situation happening, whether it'd be his own or others.

I could be babbling about nothing, but I just want to put this out I guess.

So, I’m not very far into the book yet (page 190), but wow, Eragon sure is haunting this narrative so far. Like, I knew he would, the guy is kind of a big deal around here, and yet, I didn’t expect this much. And I just—I miss him.

#also the implications it has for murtagh as a character is WILD #but i don’t think i’m qualified to unpack All That #but who knows (some of you do) #maybe he’ll do less haunting as the story goes on and murtagh has bigger fish to fry (pun intended) #anyway #I MISS MY BOY #ERAGON IS MY FAVORITE #*cries* #the inheritance cycle #christopher paolini #the world of eragon #murtagh #murtagh book #murtagh spoilers #eragon shadeslayer #brb i’m gonna go read my brand new copy of eragon and cry about my baby boy being all grown up

Diluc was probably so fucking protective over Kaeya when they were kids. Like, he’d always go first into any situation he saw as dangerous and if literally anything bad would happen to Kaeya he would feel like a horrible person. So he’s always standing up for Kaeya and protecting him from anything scary, like boars and slimes and bullies!!

And then meanwhile Kaeya, the child-savior of Khaenri’ah who probably used to see more fucked up shit in the span of 1 week than Diluc will see in his entire life and has probably killed someone before, has to just...play along. For this mission he needs to blend into the Ragnvindr family and endearing himself to the heir of the family is definitely part of that description. Like, ‘oh wow thank you for saving me from that boar. You are my hero and I definitely needed your help with that. I totally was not going to just kill the boar with the knives I definitely didn’t steal from the kitchen and sew into my clothes in case I came across that treasure hoarder camp that’s been bothering dad recently and found an opportunity to...solve the problem.’ Kaeya finds Diluc’s attempts to ‘protect’ him adorable, especially since Kaeya needs none of that protection and in fact has been doing his own part in protecting Diluc (namely ensuring that they never run into Abyss Mages while wandering in the wild). 

#genshin impact #diluc #kaeya #the wine bros #idk I think I'm gonna call them that #alongside ragbros #because IDK I think it's funny that Diluc runs a winery and Kaeya is the one who drinks all of their wine #anyways #I think the idea of Diluc being protective over baby Kaeya when Kaeya was more capable as an 8 year old than most adults is funny #Kaeya is this hyper-competent child who has been tasked with saving a dead country and maybe lived in the abyss his whole life #plus he's probably already needed to do some fucked up shit in order to survive in such a harsh environment #and Diluc sees Kaeya and is like 'clearly he needs my protection' #and Kaeya is like 'ah yes this fits perfectly into the plan I am not getting attached definitley not' #and then BOOM Kaeya got attached to his big brother who offers to fight slimes for him when Kaeya has killed grown adults at this point #ragbros #ragnvindr brothers

Megan got nicki more in a tizzy than I done ever seen, just two words sent her straight off the deep end. I feel like I'm an alternate dimension seeing nicki minaj tweak so hard she out here rubbing shoulders w ben shapiro. And now under her tweet she got rabid ass ppl defending him to the point where they're straight condemning immigrants and saying he isn't a white supremacist. As if she hasn't talked about having come here illegally as a child and wanting to protect those people. As if she isn't a black woman herself who conservatives would easily point their vitriol at for the same shit Megan writes. It's crazy, this shit is just sad

#text #me and my sister were ranting abt in the car like. she really too grown to be doing all this over one line in a song #and then i learned more details abt her brother and husband like. shes disgusting and protecting disgusting people #talking abt a 12 yr being fast and sleeping w men like. as if a baby has any consent in that situation with a Grown Ass Man #and now she out here straight mumbling and muttering all over her diss track like a crazy person bring up ppls deceased family #its never okay. acknowledging u got a serial rapist for a husband is not the same thing as bringing up someones mom who passed. just awful #im ride or die for megan rn i dont care. this shit is unacceptable and i am so damn disappointed #nicki minaj #megan thee stallion
