This might be an unpopular opinion but:

I'd rather start from 0 on with you again

I'd rather get to know you all over again

I'd rather start the romance all over again

I'd rather fix the problems

I'd rather find out what went wrong

I'd rather go through more fights and arguments

I'd rather go on more dates with you

I'd rather work on winning you over a million times

I‘d rather fight for you over a million times

I’d rather make it this time right

Than to start all over again with someone that won't be the same

“...Are you happy?”

——Looking at your form that had collapsed on the ground, the blood stains on the corners of your lips—— is the naked evidence of my ruthless and horrific treatment inflicted upon you. No matter how many times I have warned you——staying with me will only cause you to go through an endless cycle of suffering and abuse. Living your days so difficultly like that, it is not a suffer worth for you to bear at all. Because being this cruel and ruthless monster I am, I will only end up hurting you. My irresistible anger and impatient nature shall bring to you countless moments of pain and sorrow. Are you happy…? While asking you this question, I am also asking myself. Maltreated to the point until you eventually shed bitter tears…

How can you possibly be happy like this…?

——

“Are you happy…?”

The tears I shed in guilt are the price I pay for all the sorrow and pain you have endured because of me. After coming to my senses from chaotic emotions, I realised that all the previous insults, judgments and belittlement on you were a reflection of the consequences of failure and disappointment that I faced upon myself. Just what a shameless fool I was… And because I relied so much on you to make amends for the sake of me and such to achieve the impossible point of perfection, in all this selfish pursuit of perfection and making up for the mistakes I have ... unknowingly, ended up hurting you deeply in the process… And also damage your remaining self esteem… …Why must it always be this way, why would you stay for a monster like me…? …Are you happy? With someone like this in your life, are you really happy…? Again and again I asked myself the same question, again and again I asked you the same question. It's because I fail to believe that anyone would remain and stay for a monster such as I, not even myself can be able to spare myself the forgiveness. In desperation, I reached and grabbed for the last straw, but all I could do was guiltily mutter my apologies to you over and over again. Many times I have accepted the possibility that you will leave me as a result. For no normal person would be willing to stay for such a monster like me...—— But many times, the consequences I receive were not being pushed away by you, nor was it your unforgivable glare.. But instead, I felt your cold hand of no temperature yet so warm in touch placed against my cheek, Tilting my face up,

For me to look into your eyes that tenderly casted me a stare,

Bestowing a silent forgiveness upon me…

——

——Now that so much time has passed, whether it is a day filled with joy or sorrow, the coming and passing of year after year have become the cherishable times and moments worth for us to reminiscence. All the hardships faced in life, a silver lining in the murky cloud. Sunshine comes after a storm, and a gentle rainbow appears in the blue sky. Just like the love story of our lives—— always unpredictable, yet always getting a happy ending again and again. In the journey of our love, in the end, you have proved to me that no matter whether the days are good or bad, your final choice is always to stay, accompany me through this eternal life, and welcome the arrival of the future together. At this point of moment, I slowly came to realise—— I no longer need to ask you that one question which has always left me in doubt and worry for the longest of time. Because now I can easily find the answer I've been seeking for so long just by looking at your face.

——𝑼𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒃𝒍𝒖𝒆 𝒔𝒌𝒚, 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒆𝒚𝒆𝒔 𝒔𝒆𝒆𝒎 𝒕𝒐 𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒗𝒊𝒃𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔.

“Kuron~!”

From then on I have found——

…the answer I’ve been looking for for so long——

At long last…

No matter how good we are, one will always be bad in someone's story.

Still be good, not for anyone but for own self.

honestly, normalize quitting. it's so okay to drop a course, quit a job 3 weeks in, leave a relationship when it isn't giving you what you need. quitting isn't a sign of weakness, isn't a sign that you're not trying enough. a lot of the time, it's a sign that you are prioritizing yourself and your values, and that should be honoured.

#cy says stuff #compassion #hi i dropped a course and quit my summer job three weeks in #and those were GOOD decisions cause now i can focus on things that i love #also that job was so horrible for so many reasons but i wont bore you with the lore #also quitting relationships oh my god i wish I'd known that sooner...#if you're the only one trying to improve things.. that is not a relationship you want to be in!#relationships #recovery #1k #2k #3k #4k #5k #10k #15k

DP x DC Phantom Punk: We are the Outlaws

Back on my punk Danny AU

So punk is pretty anti-authoritarian, loud, fast, and contains a lot of anger, anger at how the world is. It can also be very compassionate to the downtrodden an those the system fails

You know who else has a lot of anger and compassion?

Jason Todd

Jason Todd, the second Robin, the Red Hood. The man was born to be punk.

Danny just works as a punk. His villains range from the government to a Billionaire to a ghost cop. It makes more sense than not for his experiences to have turned him in that direction, and let's face it one Sam Mason would have helped, even if punk and goth are different

So we have one dead punk boy living in a shitty apartment in Gotham, and we have another dead punk boy moving into a shitty apartment in Gotham

They're neighbors(I'd say roommates for the meme but Jay needs the added privacy)

So now we have two punks with messed up sleep schedules living next door to each other. They clearly vibe, they hang out, go to each other's apartments and Jason practically force feeds Danny a healthy meal that has enough preservatives in it to give Ra's a run for his money

Then Jason got careless

Jason, after accidentally mentioning the outlaws multiple times during a phone call, now has to deal with the fact that Danny thinks it's the band he's in. It's fine, all he has to do is play it cool, roll with it and it'll be no big deal

being unable to shut his mouth, he actually digs himself deeper. Now, Danny doesn't just want to see them play, he wants to join, and Jason has made the mistake of saying he needs to ask the band first, only to call Roy who is a little shit and goes "Yeah he can join our band."

Cut to Jason, Starfire, and a sheepish Roy scrambling to actually be a punk band as they get sucked further and further into committing to the bit

or

Fake Band au, like a fake dating au but with more people and instruments and probably ends in polyamory

#danny phantom #dp x dc #dp x dc crossover #dp x dc prompt #dpxdc #phantom punk #punk au #Phantom Punk AU #red hood and the outlaws #sometimes a relationship is based off of several comedic misunderstandings and committing to the bit #Roy is more and more sheepish he encouraged this #Starfire is amused #Danny is somehow oblivious and is just impressed how much the band is improving #and then gets them a pretty major gig #I just want you to imagine Jason as the shirtless singer in a hardcore punk band #did you picture it?#Now you understand my vision

a reminder that when you are distancing yourself from people, situations and things that are toxic, but were a great priority in your life in the past, there will be times when you doubt if you could really do it. there will be times when you would want to crawl back to the comfort you had known. it may get lonely. sending love to all those people who are trying their best to hold up the choice to cut off toxic things even when the decision feels so utterly bitter. i want to remind you that there is no shame in missing the person, the situation or that thing, craving the comfort, wishing that things were different. there might even be instances where you fall back to the familiar patterns. and life will continuously show you why it didn't work out, continuously try to remind you that you deserve better. please do not shame yourself for struggling with this love. the lesson cannot be forced. the journey cannot be fast paced. let things flow. i promise you, at the end of this journey there is win, and there is a better future with people and places and things that truly belong to you and that you truly deserve. it can be a very lonely time, and i know that it's gnawing. it is painful. i am sending you lots of love and strength your way ♡

the art of conversation (from a professional yapper)⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🍉

just wanted to preface this by saying that NOT everyone is extremely sociable and thats totally okay. this post is to help improve ur conversational skills and charisma ✨

WHY LEARNING TO BE SOCIAL IS IMPORTANT ;

social skills are literally the FOUNDATION of effective communication. its important bcuz it allows u to build meaningful relationships, express urself, collaborate with others etc.

when ur learn how to be an effective communicator u can connect more deeply with the people around u. being more social can also provide u with opportunities, and in general make ur life SO much easier. not to mention u have a lot more fun.

SUPERIORITY/INFERIORITY COMPLEX ;

an inferiority complex is the feeling of inadequacy, an insecurity that ur not on the same level as someone else. a superiority complex is the opposite, u can come off as smug or condescending. both are bad in their own right.

the way that u can combat this is by adopting the mindset that you are neither below or above anyone else, and no one else is above or below you.

doing so can kind of even the playing field of conversation in ur mind and make sure that ur not feeling some kind of way before going into a conversation bcuz when u let ur superiority/inferiority complex go by un-fixed it can sabotage communication and not give ppl the change to get to know u.

UNLEARN SHAME ;

first u gotta start off with thinking about ways that shame has influenced ur thoughts or actions. an example that im sure a lot of us could relate to is the whole cringe concept.

to help unlearn shame i recommend journalling, therapy, and mindfulness so that then u can let urself ENJOY things again, without having the looming fear of the judgement of others.

also no genuinely happy person is going to take time out of their day to shame u, only a loser would do that. and if ur the one shaming others for liking something bcuz of ur own insecurity, get that fixed and get a life.

PREPPING FOR CONVERSATION ;

when approaching someone or starting conversation with someone for the first time, a rly good way to start it is with a compliment. dont start it by saying hi cuz i think thats so awkward 😭

compliment them for something, their response can also tell u a lot about them also bcuz some ppl will take the compliment well and some ppl will serve u a dirty look and that alone can tell u if u rly wanna be conversing with that person.

LEARN TO LAUGH ;

since we've already talked about why learning to not feel embarrassed about every little thing is important, here's what to do when something like that comes up. literally laugh.

for example the other day someone whom i've never spoken to before came up to me and started talking to me so familiarly, like with their arm around me and everything and i just went with it 💀 until he noticed that he had mistaked me for someone else, but its okay cuz now i have a new friend. LAUGH ABOUT IT.

dont take everything so seriously, being able to enjoy and take a joke is what makes conversation so much fun. note, do NOT mistake taking a joke as taking disrespect bcuz u should not take that, there is a distinct difference.

the biggest advice i can give as a yapper is to be more lighthearted and not take everything seriously. bcuz i feel like when we take everything so seriously we become rigid and thats not hot, be a breath of fresh air instead ✨

i appreciate people who are selective with their social surroundings. it shows they’re not afraid to sacrifice quantity for quality. they’re intentional with who they want around, and better yet, can appreciate who they have around. if you know who you are, you know you’re not for everybody—so don’t be for everybody. be picky with who you give your valuable energy to.

Gortash designs and builds mechanisms so I imagine he has to be able to sketch fairly decently in order to sketch his projects and designs. And I'm imagining a pile of charcoal sketches of Durge, done over their entire acquaintance, starting out with sketches of them in battle and then slowly becoming more detailed and intimate and as they do, the titles changing from things like "The Bhaalspawn" and "Bhaal's Chosen at Their Bloody Work" to "The Chosen in Contemplation" and finally just Durge's name

#it's speculated that the individual pictured in these sketches is [name] who was thought to have resolved the absolute crisis #But the existence these drawings may suggest it was merely a hoax to improve their reputation #Idk man I just love the idea of Gortash keeping this series of sketches of durge #I admit a crazy fic idea I've been rotating is the idea of an art history commentary set 100 years after the events of the game covering #The art found in Gortash's estate after his death and how people would interpret it and their potential relationship #And link to first hand descriptions of the time and academic papers and all that #Stuff like “see Elerrathin et al for analysis on the class dynamics of formal portraits and new money during this period” or something #enver gortash #dark urge #dark urge x gortash #durgetash #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #bg3 spoilers

Don't tell people your boundaries. Show them.

If you tell someone they can't talk to you a certain way or do certain things, those are not boundaries. Boundaries are things we show. If you tell someone "if you do that again I am not going to speak to you" and you stay and continue to speak to them, that's not a boundary. Just words. Words that they now know means absolutely nothing and they can take advantage of.

You show people how to treat you.

You reinforce your boundaries with your actions. Unless you show someone with your actions that what they are doing is not okay, and you do not continue to allow it, they will keep doing it.
