#she was terrified

[mustangs-flames]

Wait- what did she do?!

Evelin and Adam went up to the forest park to talk about how the relationship wasn't going well. Adam was actually opening up for once to her (Jonah convinced him to) about how he felt broken, because he couldn't feel love for her the same way she felt about him. He liked her as a friend, but no matter what, he couldn't make himself feel romantic attachment to her. That he'd only ever entered the relationship in the first place because she asked him out and that's 'what you're supposed to do'. He felt miserable and wrong and like he was leading her on and couldn't do it anymore and it had taken him nearly a year to say anything about it because he was scared she'd hate him.

But from the look on her face, it was like Adam had told her something horrifying - the worst thing she'd ever heard. Something unbearable. He tried to talk her down, to get her to understand but she wouldn't let him come anywhere near her. She got in her car and left.

And Adam kind of fell apart after that. Because it confirmed what he'd feared all along - that he was broken.

Taken from the Murray Diary post I made a little while back:

"aug25 07 we’ve been dating for 8 months. i like evelin. she’s nice. kind. too kind. she deserves better, i think.

oct19 07 i wish i could love her back the way she loves me. why can’t i?

nov2 07 there’s something wrong with me.

dec6 07 i told her the truth. i shouldn’t have, but i couldn’t keep lying to her. i liked her, i loved her, but not the way she loved me. i said i don’t feel like that, that i don’t think i am capable of feeling like that. i didn’t want to lie to her. i wanted to love her. i just couldn’t. no matter how hard i tried. she told me i’m broken. she isn’t wrong and that’s the worst part. i thought i would be sad. but i’m not. i’ll try calling her tomorrow.

dec10 07 she won’t answer my messages.

dec11 07 she blocked me.

dec20 07 couldn’t control the urge. went out alone to tag. my skin itches bad, tried putting some cream on it but it made no difference. it never does. haven’t spoken to jonah in over a week now. i know he blames me because evelin isn’t talking to him anymore. but what the fuck? she’s going around saying shit about me to sarah. she says i said things i definitely didn’t. whatever. clearly i didn’t know her at all. she never used to be like this. she was always so nice. and now it’s like i never knew her at all.

dec31 07 whatever. fuck her. i’m done with it. if she doesn’t want to talk and wants to tell lies about me then she can fucking do that. i’ve had enough. new year. new me."

#hail true body au #mustang answers! #htb adam #htb evelin #to clarify: evelin didn't hear what was essentially adam coming out as aroace #she heard something else entirely #awful awful truths #she was terrified #that's why she broke up with him #but adam thought she hated him for 'leading her on' #and it definitely contributed to his downward spiral afterwards #that's why she'd be upset if she found out what a horrible misunderstanding it was

Chariot and Croix,,,, even as teachers they’re so young,,, and they’ve had to have felt like their lives were ending,,, they’re still in their twenties they have so much time and Croix always felt like she was running out of time,,,

#the way that they have so so much time to spend together now #oh man…… #they’re in their twenties #very late twenties Croixs 29 Chariots 28 #but still!! they’re so young #and you just know. that decade apart wasn’t them being at their best and happiest #I’m not saying they felt like they weren’t truly alive in that decade. though I won’t not say that #croix worked constantly on the noir fuel spirit and I know she didn’t have a good work life balance #chariot had to reinvent herself into someone who wouldn’t be recognized immediately #chariot had a shot at happiness again and I think she did like being a professor she still got to have a positive effect in peoples lives #all the while showing them the wonders of magic #but still she carried that guilt from the dream fuel spirit around for a decade eating at her #she was so young. that decade was like a third of her life. she spent a third of her life carrying that with her. being someone else #all while probably hearing about how much of a failure she was. and she couldn’t defend herself without arousing suspicion #and croix. she wasn’t doing everything bc she loved magic. maybe it started that way. but she was working against the clock #she was working to save the fate of magic the one thing she cared about she was terrified it would die out #she was terrified #everything she did was maximized for efficiency #she didn’t care what lines she had to cross because if she did there was no way she could’ve gotten as far as fast as she did #when they were kids they only had each other. they went through the hardest times of their lives without their strongest support systems #chariot had holbrooke. but was she really able to tell her everything? was she willing? and croix. croix was alone #croix was alone. terrified and alone with this crazy believe that she had to be the one to save all of magic #they were so young oh my god #soup talks #if you ever want sad chariot/croix thoughts. ur in the right place #little witch academia #chariot du nord #croix meridies #lwa

Expertise can't help you here.

#dungeon meshi #kabru #laios touden #falin touden #Happy Thistle Thursday once again. Have I been holding on to this comic for several weeks? Sure have! #I forgot how long it takes for Chimera Falin to come into play. #I still really love my 'better drawn' art of her - unfortunately it was several weeks too early for the anime only folks. #Slowly getting the hang of drawing Laios. I don't know why I struggle so much but I am getting...somewhere. #Meta time: God damn I love how the chimera shows off the expertise and gap between Kabru and Laios. #The truth is: they are both *right* and they are both *wrong*. #This creature is a combination of monster and human and they only have the skillset to deal with one of those. #Kabru goes for all the human vitals - but she isn't human. #Laios tries to approach her as a monster and is struck down by the humanity he sees in her. #She is something new that defies what they *both* understand about the world. And that makes her such a perfect antagonist. #The damsel was the dragon all along! #...She is really so cute though. Terrifying! But adorable. I am so excited to see the boom of fanart for her.

Currently thinking about 18/19 year old Toph getting thrown in some random podunk fire nation town’s one-cell jail and being like “hey I’m broke as hell but I’ve got a friend who can bail me out can I make a call” and then 2 hours later Fire Lord Zuko himself slams open the door yelling “WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO THIS TIME YOU SHIT” 

#atla #toph #zuko #toph ALWAYS calls Zuko #never Katara because Katara will leave her ass in prison #not Sokka because he'll cave to Katara's glare and also leave her #sometimes Aang but he's no fun because he always goes Disappointed Avatar Mode #Suki's a good option but she's not usually able to get there quickly #meanwhile Zuko is on a potent cocktail of terrified and fond and will deny Toph absolutely nothing #but what he will do is LOUDLY COMPLAIN ABOUT IT and Toph can respect that #also Toph bums around the Imperial Palace constantly #Zuko: Toph you've been here for a month. get out #Toph: No #Zuko: ...fair enough have a nice day

inspired by a nate bargatze sketch

Eddie’s least favorite thing people say when they find out he’s gay and married to a man is when they ask who the “man” of their house is, because…it’s fucking stupid and wouldn’t be funny even if it didn’t rely on patriarchal bullshit that Eddie didn’t buy into even before he and Steve had three daughters.

The thing is though…there definitely is a man of their house, and it’s Steve.

And if Steve isn’t home, it’s their oldest daughter, Moe.

Eddie knows this is true because there’s someone coming to their house to work on…something. All Eddie caught when Steve brought it up was, “We’ve been in this house for almost twenty years. I’d rather deal with it now than wait until it’s causing problems.”

So it’s either the roof, the water heater, or the furnace.

(He thinks).

Every once in a while Eddie gets frustrated enough about this to want to get more involved – he helped Wayne out with this shit all the time when he was a teenager, and he worked as a mechanic well into his twenties (up until he got his first book deal and was able to quit and write full-time). It’s not that Eddie can’t understand all that stuff – no, it’s Steve insisting that he take on all that kind of stuff in their life together so that Eddie didn’t have to that did it, and now it’s been so long since he exercised that part of his brain that it’s basically gone dormant.

The nail in the coffin is when Steve says, “If he shows up before I get back – do not engage. Get Moe. She knows what this is all about.”

She totally does, is the thing, so Eddie just replies, “Got it,” and prays that Steve gets home from the hardware store before the contractor arrives (is he a contractor? Eddie doesn’t think he even knows what a contractor is).

Naturally, not even five minutes after Steve pulls out of the driveway, a dark blue van pulls in.

“Ah, shit,” Eddie mumbles, and then he calls upstairs, “Moe. The guy Pop was talking about is here.”

Moe calls something incomprehensible back (hopefully it’s I’ll be down in a second) because by the looks of it this guy is already halfway to the front door.

Unfortunately for Eddie, Moe is not down in a second and he ends up in a conversation about water heaters with…not a contractor, he’s pretty sure. A plumber, maybe? Doesn’t matter – just a guy who’s gonna fix – or maybe it’s replace? – their water heater…for some reason.

“So where’s the heater?” the not-contractor-maybe-plumber asks.

“Uhh…” Eddie hesitates, and thank Christ, Moe appears at the top of the stairs.

“Basement,” she says, “Anode rod was replaced three years ago but the rest of it’s been there since we moved here in ‘04.”

The guy launches into a whole water heater spiel, and Eddie realizes halfway through he’s not trying to engage with Moe at all. He’s directing it all at Eddie as if Eddie is hearing anything more than Charlie Brown-esque phone call mumbling. He concludes with a question about…something related to tanks maybe? Or maybe it was tankless. Eddie has no idea. Moe answers it because she knows what the hell this guy is talking about, but still this asshole is looking at Eddie for confirmation.

“Dude, I dunno why you're looking at me,” Eddie tells him, and then he points at Moe, “My daughter works on airplanes. I write books. I'm telling you – you're better off listening to her.”

#moe does indeed work on airplanes at this time #after two years she decides it’s not challenging enough and goes to law school instead #eddie is terrified of her #steddie #liv’s steddie dads verse #steddie dads #steve harrington #eddie munson

Life-Saving Minecraft Tips that I almost never see anyone else using (am I just bad at the game...?)

Always carry a bucket of water in your hotbar, especially if you're going caving.

Keep a Warped Fungus handy when traversing the Nether. Hoglins can't attack you if you're standing near a Warped Fungus. I also like to keep a Flower Pot on me just in case I run into a pack of Hoglins somewhere I can't place the fungus directly on the ground.

Use potions. Idk if it's just the kinds of lets-players I watch or what, but I can't believe how many people are sleeping on these.

Night Vision for the Deep Dark (Nether Wart + Golden Carrot). Keeps you from waking up the Warden with a single careless torch placement, and also negates the Darkness effect if you activate a Shrieker.

Invisibility Potions for death runs back to your items (Night Vision Potion + Fermented Spider Eye)

Slow Falling for the Ender Dragon fight (Nether Wart + Phantom Membrane)

Fire Resistance negates like 85% of the danger in the Nether (Nether Wart + Magma Cream)

Adding some Redstone Dust to any potion will increase the duration of its effects to 8 minutes. Three max-duration potions will keep you covered for a little more than one full day-night cycle.

Wool blocks are soundproof (but carpets aren't 😕). Completely covering a Skulk Sensor or Chest with wool blocks before interacting with it will prevent chain reactions from other Sensors.

Set up a safe base with a bed at world spawn (usually around coordinates 0, 0) so that you don't have to sprint buck naked through the night if you lose your respawn point.

I actually like to put my main base near world spawn because I easily get disoriented when trying to navigate by coordinates alone, and it's much simpler for me to just follow a Compass back home (I think that's an exclusive-to-Niki problem tho. I've never heard of anyone else wanting to do this 😅).

This is only tangentially related, but I can remember a time when Zombies dropped Feathers instead of Rotten Flesh. You'd think I wouldn't die so often, having played this game for almost 13 years...
