Something I'm so normal about is Fit just being there for Tubbo the whole time. The way he followed Tubbo to what could have been a trap or kidnapping attempt just to make sure he was safe and then helping him solve the clue and reassuring him when he was getting stuck. They way he gave Tubbo space to meet Fred but be right there if he needed him and how he gave him trouble on the way back. The way that he was right there by his side when Fred left again. How Tubbo wanted him there in his special place, the place that he wrote to Fred and was their shared secret when he read Fred's final letter because he needed support and knew that Fit would have his back no matter what. The way Tubbo trusted Fit with what could be his most private moment and most fragile state because he trusts Fit and knows that Fit cares about him

"I have a secret."
Arthur looks up from a report and glances across the room absentmindedly to Merlin holding a dagger he was polishing in his lap as he watches Arthur with a tilt of his head.
Arthur huffs a laugh, "Is it that you're secretly a girl?"
Merlin's lips tick upward for just a moment before continuing his stare.
Arthur watches him for a few moments, and then puts his quill down.
"You have a secret." Arthur repeats seriously.
Merlin just smiles, a small one, "I have a secret. It's an important one. But I can't tell you the secret. And I can't tell you why I can't tell you."
Arthur squints his eyes as Merlin looks down to keep polishing.
"Are you in danger?"
Merlin pauses to think which makes Arthur clench his fists in worry, not that he'd say that.
"...I suppose," He says slowly, thinking over his words, "But it's to my understanding- at this time at least -that it's no more or less dangerous for me whether you know or not. I do think it may be more dangerous for you if you know though."
Arthur hums and watches Merlin's face but sees nothing but earnestness as they meet eyes across the room.
"And why do you tell me this?"
Merlin just smiles again, but bigger this time, "I've decided I trust you with it. I trusted you before of course," he add hurriedly as if Arthur would ever think otherwise,
"But I just realized that I trust you with this, too. And this is something I've never trusted anyone enough to share it with- before I mean. And if it comes up, well, I'd rather be able to tell you that I can't tell you then to lie to you. So, this is me telling you there's a secret."
Arthur looks thoughtfully before raising one eyebrow along with a ghost of a smirk on his face, "So you have a secret you can't tell me. But you trust me with it. When do I get to hear the secret?"
Merlin leans his head on his hand as he looks sideways at him impishly, "I will tell you no lie if you ask."
Arthur hears the unspoken words bright as day:
I'm not going to say anything by myself cause I don't think it's time yet, but I will tell you the truth regardless if you so choose.
Arthur hums to himself before nodding once and then twice, ignoring the giddiness in his heart.
Picking up his quill again, he says, "You missed a spot," so he can hear his manservant squawk from across the room, "I'm not finished yet, you prat!"
They meet gazes one more time with matching fire in their eyes and grins on their faces before resuming their activities.
It's nice to be trusted.

the thing that gets me about limited life is that it was so full of love. love for your friends, for your allies. it was skizz dying twice to the boogeyman and tango, impulse, and etho agreeing to keep him alive at all costs. it was joel getting boogey and jimmy and grian immediately agreeing to help him get a kill. it was cleo getting armor for her boys. it was pearl and bigb, mistrusted and disliked by the rest of the server, deciding to trust each other anyways. it was scott letting cleo get a few hours off of him. it was skizz’s affirmation station. it was scott begging martyn to kill him. it was tango letting skizz kill the final green. it was bdubs giving jimmy an extra thirty minutes when jimmy had seven minutes left. it was joel and grian telling jimmy to push off the minecart that they set up so he could get an extra thirty minutes. it was skizz letting etho take his last thirty minutes. it was grian begging joel to kill him and joel refusing. it was grian making a tnt minecart when joel ran out of time. it was pearl making a mini-game in order to give bigb an extra hour and a half. it was impulse blowing up pearl and bigb because they could have killed etho. it was cleo reuniting with scar and bdubs in the sky after they all died. it was scott saying, “martyn, they tried to kill me >:(” and martyn replying, “that’s it, they’re dead”. it was grian giving etho a diamond sword and etho agreeing to help him, nearly 24 hours later, when grian was running out of time and allies. it was scott dying to martyn and saying, “betrayed by own mean gill. i wouldn’t have it any other way.”
the love was there. they all ran out of time, but it was there.

I love that the whole fandom agreed Stede topped the first time.
However, if you think that's how they will keep doing it forever you are wrong. Stede finally got the man he wanted and got to do something so good with him it made Edward Teach throw out his leathers and become a housewife, and now that he got a taste, this hedonistic little man who found out what Good Sex With Someone You Love is like, is about to try every flavor of it. he will see Ed having a good time and think 'I want what he's having'
And Ed. Look at him and tell me that's not a man who's willing to do anything to make his boyfriend happy, and this is not a look of somebody who Will introduce this repressed man to his prostate later. That's a service top in the making.
They are two super inventive, imaginative men who are so obsessed with each other and trust each other, who live in the middle of nowhere. if you do not think they will invent 858 new ways to have sex, probably publish a new Kamasútra for queer pirates and publish it in hard binding and sell it at the inn's gift shop, you're wrong

Something I really like about Raph and Leo’s relationship is that Raph noticeably doesn’t hold back with Leo nearly as much as he does with Donnie and Mikey, and it’s really nice to see that from him.
Leo too would frequently fall into a natural strategist and second-in-command role of sorts, often actually giving his worries and thoughts to Raph where he wouldn’t normally.
Then the Shredder happens and this dynamic is thrown into a loop where they both stay solidly in their own camps of “we’re heroes, it’s our duty” and “we’re teens, who cares?” And during this, Raph not holding back from Leo is cranked up to an eleven and Leo flips around to mask more with Raph than he ever had before and deliberately riles Raph up so that fights are all but guaranteed.
Post-invasion, it’s clear they’re (mostly) back to how they were before for the most part, with an added level of respect and maturity (and trauma) there too, and it’s great to see because they’re an amazing duo when they’re on the same wavelength.
