You cannot tell me that I do not have hurt, until you have crawled inside my mind and spent a night in the confusion, until you have walked down the dimly lit steps leading to my heart, and witnessed her body being racked with sobs, gasping for air on the floor of her room. You cannot tell me that I do not have hurt unless you dare to take my grief by the hand, look her in the eyes and say that to her face.

Sad Sunshine
The breeze tickled her cheek and her hair danced in the wind. She gazed at the beaming light, radiating from the horizon. She swiftly covered her honeycomb eyes, then she finally spoke.
"You still believe in us, like the sun believes in summer?" "Yes! Like history loves yesterday," I earnestly responded.
She then removed her hand from her forhead, allowing the sun to dominate her eyesight. She softly explained, "The sun is also star and all stars die. When a star dies, that is when it shines the brighest. Isn't it bright outside?"

i never liked fall, not until now. when i fell in love with the first boy i ever loved, i didn’t like him at first, too. but then i loved him. and so i learned to appreciate the things i didn’t like. to keep my mind open. once, i stood on the front steps of our door and i watched the rain pour down and i felt so lost in the magic of the sky and the winter and water that i knew, then, even though i didn’t like winter, i was falling in love with it. and so i let myself. i never liked fall but october has been my salvation for two autumns. but this october is slipping away and it’s taking something from me with it. the seasons are shifting, and so did something within me, too. my poetry is collecting dust in the back shelves of my mind. i’m too tired to put it into pretty words. it. what is it?
it is october days slipping by in a blur of all-too-similar days that leave me tired and drained. but it’s not just that. it’s another season slipping into another, another year spinning into another, another piece of me dwindling, another part of my youth fading away into nothing. it’s caramel dripping from my lips as i walk towards him and he walks away. coldness settling in where the love once did. pouring rain and rumbling thunder. my faith rattling inside my heart. uncertainty. out of breath. a collection of pills to numb the pain that stretches out for days and always lurks under the surface. efforts that feel like mountains building up over my chest. it’s the day my friend got mad at me and i was too tired and sick of all of it that i wanted to sit back and fix nothing watch it all crash and burn. i don’t want to fix anything more. the voices in my head have quieted down; both the good and the bad. i listen to nothing. i hear nothing but the echoes of my resignation. it’s a numbness of acceptance settling in my bones. i believe what i know. i believe what i keep being told, over and over. indifference has filled me up; i let it. i sit in a roomful of people and i can’t deal with it anymore. it’s reaching out and being left behind and shutting out and shutting up and hiding out. a quiet decision to step back and away from the world. an agreement. it’s a quietness i now carry within me that i don’t recognize. a numbness that scares me. i’m too scared to go back outside. i see ghosts lurking down the stairs. it’s my walls coming back up, again.
a part of me leaves me as october ends. i don’t think it’ll come back. i hope it does, but right now, i’m too tired to even think about that.

You’ve grown into someone who would have protected you as a child. And that is the most powerful move you made.

forever obsessed with percy being weird. off-putting. strange even. a cryptid maybe. an urban legend if I may. my boy is the son of one of the oldest, most powerful gods, has been in FBI's records since the age of twelve, fought and won two wars against immortal beings, went to hell and back. I think he's allowed to be a little odd.

Tumblr media
this panel from the world guide of falin being surrounded by other girls while laios is all alone kills me because. that's it. that's the key difference in their journeys.
as laios states himself, he left the village in order to create a home for him and falin elsewhere. a home that won't collapse due to others' hatred and fears like their old home did, a home where they are loved and accepted unconditionally. but as he soon found out, even before earning money, or having walls surrounding him and a roof above his head- what he so earnestly desired was to meet other people who will accept him for who he is as well. instead, he kept being tormented by those around him, shunned and sneered at. his loneliness quickly became all-consuming until he truly had nothing left except for the monsters in the pages of his book, but even that became a target of mockery and destroyed. that's why ever since the day he left the village, he never felt that he truly made the right choice. so he kept running away: unable to resist and unable to accpet.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and an ocean away from him there was his sister, who never managed to fully fit in herself. but unlike him, she met a person who became a home to her and learned what a true friendship was for the first time in her life. and laios clearly realizes that too when he finally sees falin and marcille together, he can tell his sister obtained the greatest treasure there is on her own- the exact thing he never managed to find anywhere himself, thus coming back empty-handed to the sister he left the village for.
Tumblr media
but when you read this part of the manga, laios's focus is on falin's loneliness, not his own. he talks about how it hurts thinking about all those moments she had to spend alone because he wasn't there for her, so it almost sounds like he's the one who couldn't bear her suffering and therefore decided to not let her go again. but we do get a glimpse of their first meeting after that almost-decade long separation in the manga, and then we see more of that in the world guide and daydream hour- and it becomes abundantly clear that it was falin who was trying to protect and save him from this pit of loneliness and depression he was in.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so instead of just doing his best to atone for leaving her behind in the village and making sure she is never lonely again, it might also be that laios was desperately clinging to the one person in the world he felt that accepted and loved him unconditionally. those words he used to describe his motivation to stay by falin's side are the exact words she would've used as well; she couldn't bear leaving him behind in this state. in a sense, they were each other's shackles.
but then she did. she died for him and their friends, and ironically enough, it was by leaving him alone like this that he was finally able to stand on his own and put his full trust in others. to have the courage to reveal who he is and give others the opportunity to accept him after such a long time of hiding. it was a long journey, but his hiding finally came to an end when he faced the others after shedding his monster form. and i love that the person who was falin's "home" all those years away from laios, marcille, became just as meaningful to him during their time separated from falin- the first one to find him and show him that he isn't alone anymore. just as he did for her.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so at the end of the story when falin talks about all the places she would like to go, it's not just that she wants to pursue her own dreams- but that she actually feels free to do so and go anywhere she desires. and one of the main reasons for that is that her brother finally found new people he wants to be with; his own home.

As the waves crashed violently into her knees, she began contemplating her demise. He then grabbed her hand and stopped her feet from dancing with death. Then she asked, "why do you try to preserve my body when you have already murdered my heart?"

Is it so wrong of me to want space to breathe with the one I love? Is it so wrong of me to want to rest my head on my lover's arms and close my eyes?
Breathe,
I just want to breathe without feeling guilty of the things that bring my heart joy.
Breathe,
Why am I not allowed to live without feeling bad of my existence?
Breathe,
I feel so suffocated.
Breathe,
I want to escape.
Breathe,
I feel like a criminal for wanting to
Breathe.

fionna and cake drawings before and after watching the episodes so far. it’s nostalgic and somehow cathartic and poignant and relatable and—it just started
