#torn between life

[certified--loser]

radio static..

a torn between life short story

summary: after Julian and everyone get locked in the library from the cluster of middle-schooler zombies in the school, Julian finds a radio in the library.

the plan of escaping has started, but someone in the group grows suspicious about something.

one for the living... two for the soul...

"Hello..? hello!?"

"Damn it..!" Julien slammed his hands down onto the table.

"no signal! what's next? the power!?" Julien sat down, his hands over his eyes.

everyone was still in a state of panic, shock, grief..

it had only been hours since everything fell apart, kids getting mauled by zombies, being locked inside the library.

as far as anyone knew they all where the only ones alive in this school, or non-zombified.

Julians curly brown hair curved onto his face, removing his hands, tears fell from his ocean-blue eyes.

Luke walked over to Julien, sitting down next to him, putting a hand on his shoulder.

"It alright, we are going to figure something out... don't panic."

Luke calmed Julian down, telling him they would figure something out to survive.

"Bullshit, Luke! we. are. STUCK."

Cassie lashed out, "We are going to die here! that radio isn't going to work, we shouldn't have gotten our hopes up with it!"

everyone else stayed quiet,

"w- we at least got to try, Cassie." Julian babbled, in a state of panic.

"I'm not going to d- die here without trying to get out alive, that's not the way I'd want to die."

a few seconds later Rosalie stood up.

"Julians right, we should at least try!" Rosalie said, looking at Cassie,

"how then, rose?" Cassie shot Rosalie a glare.

Cassie argued with Rosalie on trying to escape.

"What if there more out there, huh? Rosalie."

Julien sat his head on Luke's shoulder, Luke rubbing his back, calming him down still.

"wasn't there a key to the window, like when Ms. Smith had to let air in?" Rosalie remembered the blue library window key

Luke looked to Rosalie.

"that might actually work, we should look around."

"everyone look for a bleu key!" rosalie exclaimed, hoping to make it out the zombie-infested middle school.

"what key?" julian asked, standing up while everyone started to search.

rosalie looked confused for a second.

"oh! sorry Julien, look for a.. darkish grey? if you need help looking i can help!"

"it okay, I can try to find it. thanks for offering Tho."

while everyone was searching for the library key, Cassie glared at Rosalie again

"I'll show 'em.."

"Show everyone what will happen..."

(This is a chapter for the story, let me know if you like it so far!)

merlin (immortal) giving arthur (pendragon) the only blade that could kill him

#they make me SICK #i hate them so much #if arthur had found out about his magic earlier and took it poorly…he’d be the only person able to kill him #merlin handing over the sword as a symbol of his utter trust in arthur #god imagine arthur finding out (au everyone lives) and being torn between wanting to cast the sword away but also wanting to keep it on him #he hates the weight of merlins life that now seems attached to the blade #he doesnt want it #but he cant cast it away bc what if someone gets their hands on it?? then merlins life is in their hands #he is BAFFLED that merlin would give HIM - uther pendragons son - the only thing that could kill him #he asks after days of fitful sleep and consideration and merlin is just like #‘its /you/ arthur.’ he says like its painfully obvious #NCJGSKSNSDIBSKSB TEYH MKAE ME VIOELTNT #bbc merlin #merlin emrys #arthur pendragon #excalibur #immortal merlin #merthur #im just thinking of percabeth when percy tells annabeth where his mortal point is and she is the ONLY person who knows #and she has to carry that tidbit of information around like its not the heaviest burden shes ever carried - more so than the sky #that one quote 'love is giving someone the power to destroy you but trusting them not to' #idk you get it #arthur and annabeth being the only people who can destroy the one they love #merlin and percy having unwavering trust and faith in their other half that they place their life in their hands #literally #sorry im done

do you guys think Verlaine was just one room down from the dungeon where skk had their gay ass reunion?

#I’m violently torn between thinking that Verlaine would never life in a basement that run down and also thinking stormbringer emotionally #ruined him so much that he doesn’t care and just sits in a random dungeon in the pm basement #also I think it would be a poetic parallel to Dazai’s shipping container #anyone who watched the cannibalism stage play: are there any clues to how his basement looks? #I just think it would be funny if he was next door to that shit show going down #bungou stray dogs #soukoku #bsd #osamu dazai #chuuya nakahara #bsd chuuya #bsd dazai #bsd Verlaine

on moving out

#for context i drew this during the paradise of providence event👍 #repost of old art #kavetham #haikaveh #i still think abt kaveh moving out often #always a bit torn between it signifying him getting back on his feet + regaining confidence in himself #but like sometimes he's a bit of an unreliable narrator....remember when he was like #hm. the first thing i will do w the prize money is move out and then build another palace but ten times bigger! like oh...kaveh..... #plus he can sometimes be blind (purposefully or not) to what's actually good for him..bc we (and alhaitham LOL) know the significance of #him having a home that's not just a house and how full circle of a moment that is for him #its always interesting to consider that their living situation in itself is this in-between flux moment #though i think kaveh trying his best to escape this “chapter of his life” isn't necessarily the solution..... #i still don't know how tumblr works so if u have to go thru all my yapping in these tags to repost i am so sorry </3 #ok thats all thank u for coming to my ted talk

Alive!Boromir having tea parties with his niece/daughter and getting very into the juicy tea party gossip. Do you see the vision.

#he gives off the biggest girl dad vibes to me #probably because i headcanon all of my fave dudes as girl dads fkjsdfgsdf #i'm torn between headcanoning him as a bachelor for life who throws himself wholeheartedly into being the best uncle ever #and headcanoning him as the best girl dad to ever girl dad #either way: boromir at tea parties #lotr #boromir #headcanons #.txt

what i wouldn't give for fanart of the Disaster Lineage carrying obi-wan because he's the smallest of them all. like, qui-gon going bridal carry with a furious obi. anakin either giving him a piggyback ride or straight up tossing him over his shoulder. ahsoka jokingly lifting him up à la lion king. dooku very confidently holding him like a baby while he hides his face in embarrassment. bonus points for yoda just levitating the poor man.

#obi wan MUST look torn between miserable and high key having the time of his life #that is a key component #one day i shall learn how to draw but until then i will have to imagine #obi wan #anakin skywalker #anakin #obi wan kenobi #obi wan and anakin #ahsoka #ahsoka tano #obi wan and ahsoka #yoda #qui gon #qui gon jinn #qui gon and obi wan #dooku #count dooku #yan dooku #obi wan and dooku #star wars #sw #jedi positivity #pro jedi #sw pt

Six Ears, and being left.

#mhw09 personal #gif warning #*screaming into knees* #can I draw your attention to his HAND PLEASE #I didn't realize that was going to be a *thing* #that little WAVE #I paid subzero attention to the closing and it was because I was subconsciously protecting my heart apparently #listen to me listen #it's about 'and a double-edged sword cuts your heart in two' #torn between Stone Monkey and *gestures to everything else in his life* *like literally everything* #it's about Stone Monkey going where Six Ears can't follow #and where the line is between staying behind and being left behind #and so he's stuck in place. watching him leave. weights around his ankles. #whether those be his duty to his troop or the demons in his head #always holding back. always in-between. always feeling like he's going to lose *something*. #six ears and that fear that's inside him #I've only seen 11 episodes and have just One Major Spoiler in my pocket am I barking up the wrong tree? MAYBE #but here we are anyway #also Jade Rabbit looking at him in concern from the background! this missing scene is gold. too bad it's on eternal mute.

batman: son of the demon

[ID: three panels of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul being in love (and horny) for each other. In the first one, Bruce is in their luxurious bedroom for the first time and is awkwardly standing in his costume as Talia is behind a dressing screen and is changing into a white, satin négligée with lace detailing on it. She reminds him that they technically are married (and that she consented readily to it) but Bruce confesses, “I remember. But it's hard for me to consider that marriage real.” Talia emerges from behind the screen, looking as beautiful as ever as she walks up to him and eases his cowl off. She tells him, “Beloved, you give too much thought to what is ‘real,’ and what is not, to what is ‘true,’ and what is ‘false...’ I realize that is your way, but just this once, accept things as they are...” He strips himself of his clothes as they move to the bed—Talia laying on her back as he's between her legs. She continues to speak, “Forego your control, your discipline... just once, let yourself go... and take me with you.” Her arms slip around his neck as they kiss passionately.

The second panel is lineart of them against a white background. They look at each other lovingly, her hands reaching up to be on his shoulders as he holds her waist. The narration boxes read: ‘While still finding time to be a newlywed, a role in which he is quite unskilled... but—to his delight—quickly learns.’

In the third panel, several weeks have past. Bruce and Ra's al Ghul are walking before Talia interrupts and asks her beloved for a word. Bruce starts to ask if it can wait, due to him and Ra's discussing an important mission but she tells him it cannot. Ra's reassures, “Go, detective, we shall speak of this later.” Bruce and Talia pull away to talk in private, the background a beautiful, bright ombré of red and yellows. She has her arms up on his shoulders as he holds her waist and starts to ask, “Now, Talia, what's so impor—” but she quickly shares, “Beloved, I am with child.” Bruce starts to repeat her but Talia already confirms again, “I am pregnant.” She continues to look up at him, patiently waiting for his response as Bruce stares straight ahead, obviously in shock. He slowly repeats the words back to her in an attempt to register them, “You're... pregnant?” Before he suddenly beams! He pulls her into a tight, close embrace as he excitedly announces, “That's wonderful!” Talia smiles at him and says, “Isn't it?” Before her father can shake Bruce's hand with his own warm smile. Bruce still holds Talia's hand as Ra's tells him, “Detective, Dr. Weltmann could not keep this from me. My congratulations.” END ID]
