I'm so used to bad queerbaiting etc. That whenever I see a gay ship in Star Trek I'm like "jajaja silly ship probably doesn't have much base or support in the subtext but its probably fun" AND THEN. I WATCH THE ACTUAL SHOW. "Captain, there's a definite pleasurable expirience connected to the hearing of your voice" "The Spy talked to me! :D" "You are not another electronic" "Even Gods have favorites Jean-Luc and you've always been one of mine" I SEE INTERVIEWS. I SEE GARAK ACTOR SAYING "Oh yeah I wanted to fuck him and that's what I acted on" I SEE WILLIAM SHATNER BEING LIKE "Kirk favorite conquest is Spock!" AND IT FEELS SO INSANE???? IN FUCKING 2023?????
Star trek fr was so ahead of its time in all topics that now I actually expect good representation of any type from today's TV shows and I just disappoint myself

Sometimes Ghost wakes up without Soap in his arms. It shouldn't be something to panic over but with what they do for a living - and when Ghost definitely remembers falling asleep with Soap next to him - it freaks him out a little bit.
Of course Soap is always fine. He can take care of himself. But still Ghost gets out of bed and goes searching for its partner.
Usually he finds Soap in the bathroom or getting something to drink or coming in from outside after hearing a noise and just wanting to be safe.
"There you are," Ghost will huff sleepily. It digs the heels of its hands in its eyes and rubs away sleep.
Soap will roll his eyes and finish up whatever he was doing when Ghost found him. "I'm a big boy, ya know. I can take care of myself." It's always delivered lightly, and Soap always goes and engulfs Ghost in a reassuring hug.
"I'm well aware." Ghost wraps his arms around Soap and rests his cheek on top of his head.
"Promise I'll stop scarin' ya." Soap mumbles into Ghost's chest. Ghost leans against a wall and pulls Soap with it.
"I don't think you will." Ghost whispers back.
They'll go back to bed and Ghost will practically wrap his whole body around Soap to make sure he doesn't leave until morning.
They never talk about Ghost's fear of losing Soap while asleep. They never acknowledge what could happen while Ghost was unable to fight back. And they never plan to.
Ghost doesn't get much sleep the rest of the night.

not to get really close to discourse-posting at 10 in the morning but it is a bit crazy to me how stressed out people on here get abt CCs coming onto tumblr and finding the community like. unpalatable or something. instead of treating fandom like a group of people just making shit that they can pass around with each other, it's turned into this weird almost-art gallery kind of situation, where 16-year-olds with bpd and unmedicated people in their 20s are responsible for showing off just how Beautiful and Wonderful our collective creations are 😭 like can we be real. there's a hermitcraft menstruation sub-fandom on here. this shit was never gonna be safe for CCs

i don't know why, but in the sparse five hours of sleep i got last night, my brain decided to plague me with dreams of lilia taking care of an elderly silver, up until the final moments of his life. i could hear silver's thoughts the whole time, and he was so absolutely inundated with shame and guilt it almost seemed like he was suffocating. he kept thinking over and over and over again that this all should've been the other way around. he should've been the one looking after his father in the twilight of his life. he should've been his aging father's rock, his safe place to land, his stalwart defender against a world so unbelievably cruel to its most vulnerable denizens. again and again his heart cried out in vain, it should've been the other way around.
as a child he had once wished - prayed, even, to the same force now threatening to reclaim his spirit back into its unconscious designs - for his father to live a long and prosperous life, and it was as though that very wish had backfired on him in a way he never could have possibly imagined

Demonizing fic writers and creatives for creating fake scenarios for fun while normalizing the act of sticking your nose into the band's private lives like it's completely normal is a choice.

thinking about how minthara says that she was never able to enjoy the taste of food for fear of poisoning, or the company or friends or lovers because they might be hiding knives behind their smiles, and then immediately follows it up with saying she was happy because she knew her place in the world and im just like. i dont think you were happy babe i think you're autistic and were used to a routine!!
at some point shes gonna be cuddling with tav and think i dont think ive been this happy since... oh wow. ive never been happy. bad!

foolish logging into the server in the middle of the night and giving tina a dozen bone block stacks, logging out, then logging back in to give the spider pants, then logging back out again…all without saying a word…
man really was like “tina get back to work no slacking!”
