The Bad Day

Sabine's day was not going very well.

It all started innocently enough. Waking up from a nightmare, only to find she'd overslept. Tripping on her way out the door. Chopper pulling a poorly timed prank. Hera getting upset at her for attacking Chopper because of his prank and sending her by herself on a supply run— a chance to cool down, Hera had reasoned, but it only steamed her up more.

Then there was the guy in the market whose catcalling would've been met with her fist if she hadn't been carrying the crew's supplies and trying to avoid imperial suspicion. And then the upcharged groceries that never seemed to fit their supply budget. And the annoyed screams of Zeb when she returned without his beloved space waffles that had been so significantly overpriced, she figured she could skip them this time. Then the angry words she'd yelled as she'd stormed out. Then Kanan trying to ask her what was wrong like he was some kind of dad.

That was the last straw. Usually, she didn't mind her family on The Ghost. But today? After the dream she'd had last night? The last thing she needed was more family to worry about.

She left The Ghost in a huff, thinking maybe some time by herself would calm her down, though she knew the opposite was often the case when she was left alone with her thoughts.

But then she saw Ezra, tinkering with some circuits on the underside of the ship, lost in his own little world, a Loth Cat curled around his leg.

Now, Sabine had never been known to have an affinity for hugs, and she'd also never been known to have an affinity for Ezra, but something inside her told her a hug from Ezra would make this nightmare of a day a bit better.

So, she marched up to him, fists clenched, her mere frustrated presence scaring away the Loth Cat. Ezra, however, didn't seem to notice her right away, instead watching the Loth Cat run into the distance.

"I need you to give me a hug," she said, quickly, sharply, as if upset at herself for saying it and stopping herself from stopping herself.

Ezra turned to her and smiled at the sight of her, but with deep confusion in his eyes.

"What?" he asked, then shook his head and blinked a couple times, "wait, why? Is everything okay?"

"I'm not talking about it," Sabine said, knowing what would happen if she tried to talk about it, and not ready to cry right now, "I just need a hug. Don't make me change m...."

Before she could finish speaking, she was in his arms. On any other day, if she'd even let him get this close, she would've complained that he smelled like Loth Cats and mechanical failures, and about how sweaty he was, and how whatever kind of starship grease he'd been using was all over his hands and staining her shoulder pauldron and her sleeve— but with everything that had happened that day, she almost didn't notice, and if she did, she certainly didn't care.

He'd pulled her in so quickly, she hadn't even the chance to hug him back— not that she needed to, instead clinging onto Ezra's shoulders in front of her as tightly as she could.

She wasn't sure when he'd gotten taller than her, but she was glad that he had, because his heart's gentle beating beneath her ear calmed her own heart rate down as well. She hadn't noticed how cold she'd been until Ezra's arms closed around her, his warmth quickly spreading from her back and arms all the way down to her toes and her fingers.

"Is this okay?" Ezra quietly asked.

"Yeah," Sabine whispered.

As he held her, held her close to him, neither of them backing away or making it weird, Sabine's stress floated away, like a leaf in the wind, like every layer of hardships she'd faced that day peeled itself away from her, and when they were all stripped back, maybe it wasn't so hard a day after all— except for the nightmare she'd woken up from.

Even an eternity in his arms couldn't fix that one— not that she normally would've liked the idea of spending an eternity in his arms, but this sacred moment made it a tempting prospect.

She heard him sigh as his arms slipped out from around her and he took a step back from her, though his hand still rested on her shoulder.

"Are you okay?" Ezra asked, his gaze seeing through her rough exterior.

"I just," she shook her head, "just a bad dream."

"In the middle of the day?" Ezra asked, and though anyone else could've meant it sarcastically, he seemed legitimately confused.

"No, last night," she explained.

"And you're still stressed over it?" Ezra asked, and when she nodded, he added on, gently, "may I ask what it was about?"

"The Empire," Sabine said, letting the words come out angrily rather than risk letting sorrow herald them, "somehow they'd recreated the Duchess, and they," she let a deep breath fight against the tears she knew would betray her, "and my family...."

She couldn't bring herself to say it, and she didn't have to. Once again, Ezra cut her off by pulling her into a hug— and this time, she hugged him in return.

As her head hit his chest, she found that her tears fell faster than she could stop them, and hoped Ezra wouldn't notice a few teardrops mixed in with all the sweat and grease on his shirt.

"I couldn't stop it," Sabine said, "I had to watch...."

"It's okay," Ezra said, his hand moving off her shoulder so he could cradle the back of her head, pulling her closer to him in support, "it was just a dream."

"It felt so real," Sabine said, through gritted teeth.

"I know," Ezra said, the softness in his tone smoothing out the rough edges of hers, "it's okay. Your family is okay."

"And what if they're not?" Sabine asked, pushing a little bit away from him, though he didn't take his hands off her shoulders, "what if the Empire tries again?"

"Then we'll stop them," Ezra said, "we always do."

Sabine wanted to argue, but she knew it was pointless to try and disagree with those reassuring blue eyes and the confident smile below them.

"Yeah," Sabine nodded.

That was all she said. That was all she could say, and she hardly even looked at him when she said it.

But it was apparently enough for Ezra. His smile shifted ever so slightly, and Sabine responded with a smile of her own.

As one last comfort before she inevitably put up her walls and shut him out again, he pulled her back into his arms, close to his heart.

And Sabine sighed with contentment as she returned his embrace.

Maybe today wasn't going so bad after all.

"Better Call Saul" Season 2 Episode 4: "Gloves Off"

#better call saul #jimmy mcgill #saul goodman #tv clips #gifset #chuck mcgill #hey Chuck buddy pretty sure it's still extortion even if you don't say that part out loud #like if this has nothing to do with Jimmy and Kim is blameless then why is she in doc review?#at minimum this is a hostile work environment #Chuck killed himself because he couldn't accept hypocrisy as a fact of the human condition; I stand by my interpretation #Exhibit C in my “HHM was corrupt and nobody else was going to take them down” portfolio #As much as I'd like to say “Isn't it sweet? Jimmy would trash his whole career just to get Kim out of a jam”#let's be honest this is at least 50% “Jimmy would trash his own career to win an argument against his brother”#But who says chivalry and vindictiveness are mutually exclusive motivations

If Square ever hires me we're getting a Genesis-centric game no one wanted where Genesis has catty inner monologues and the set goal of the plot is acquiring people who can tolerate him for more than five minutes.

Also you solve a mystery or something.

#asks #ff7 #ffvii #final fantasy 7 #crisis core #genesis rhapsodos #It's called FFVII: The Book of Genesis #And there are sidequests where you track how many people you can piss off by entering a single room #Also Sephiroth sometimes calls you and instead of murder he sends you mundane emails that have nothing to do with anything #“Genesis I'd like my headphones back”#“I ordered those special Genesis they are noise-cancelling I NEED them back”#“Genesis I SWEAR TO GOD”#Chapter titles are all related to Loveless #Collect all the pages of Gen's Loveless book and you win an extra cutscene where Genesis criticizes shinra's taste in lounge curtains #shitposting #Also NONE of this is serious so Anti-Gen squad don't @ me

#i had to make a vet appointment and Wow i am not cut out for this whole independent adult thing lmfao #i had to write down a little script for myself...#i feel so bad for the receptionist i was stumbling and 'uhhhhh'ing my way through that call #fuck and when i was supposed to end the call. i didnt realize #I DONT KNOW THE PROTOCOL OKAY #do i hang up??? do i say bye??? she didnt say bye so was there something else i was supposed to say #she hung up so Yay but oughhhhhhh what the fuck #youre telling me people just Know how to carry a conversation? they just Know the routine? sounds fake #i had to rev myself up for the call too #put on a hat. put on sunglasses to trick my brain into thinking we're outside doing things thus fabricating confidence #phone in one hand fidget-dodecahedron in the other. Pacing #my brain is a normal brain that works perfectly fine thanks for asking #absolutely unprompted #i feel so connected to my neanderthal ancestors when i have to make a call #theyre being stalked by a smilodon... i have to talk to a person... same Fear <3 #no but fr whenever i have to talk to someone my thought process shuts down Completely and i forget that im a living human being #fight or flight - neither. freeze and play dead #i think in my next life... i would like to be... a decorative plant #perhaps one of those tall ferns outside a seaside barbecue restaurant #i'd Win at that life. id be so good at photosynthesizing & rustling in the ocean breeze

If there is anything that makes me wanna say "I called it" on, it's the characterization of the Daycare Attendant (Sun specifically) in Help Wanted 2. My version of Sun's personality is almost exactly like the Sun in HW2, and I made him after playing Security Breach (the only difference being he cusses and that Moon is more chill).

I deadass looked at this cheerful weirdo we barely got to see in that game and went "he is both the only adult serving cunt and the most friendly guy to ONLY children out there". And now that's CANON. He is the exact opposite of that one meme image that has "fuck them kids" on it. Sun says "fuck them adults" lmao.

#the disappointment speaks #a day in the life of the disappointment #screaming into the void #love my brain doing this to me #if I had a nickel for every time I called something by accident before it occured (game related)#I'd have 2 nickels. one for Banjo in smash and one for Sun's personality.#if we include irl itd be 3 bc I once told a resident that she's win big at bingo and won 7 out of 11 rounds that day #btw I'll never live that bingo moment down. We manifest bingo winnings to rival the gods here.#but yeah I didnt think I could compare me calling Sun's personality and Banjo in Smash Ultimate ever but here we are!#its like sans and the queen dying. unrelated yet somehow forever linked by correlation.#oh wait I gotta do normal tags too #fnaf #fnaf help wanted 2 #help wanted 2 #okay enjoy my word vomit people going through the hw2 tags on tumblr. ily

I feel like it's a little cringey to say "Yeah Good Omens helped me figure out my gender identity" but like. It gave me the concept of being able to look like *gender* and use that gender's pronouns and be mostly cool with being perceived as that gender, but not actually be that gender.

Like occasionally I might feel a little bit like a girl (but never like a woman) but most of the time I'm agender, and I think there's a lot of pressure in the queer community to present a certain way or use different pronouns if you're anywhere on that spectrum. And it's totally awesome that that works for a lot of people. But I always kind of felt like if I'm cool looking like a girl and using she/her then I couldn't claim any kind of gender fuckery.

But Crowley and Aziraphale both (usually) look like men and use male pronouns but aren't actually men? Oh cool, I can do that? Good to know.

#i mean i certainly don't look like a FEMININE girl but i do wear makeup and all that #people just think I'm a tomboy or a punk and I've always been ok with that #as long as I'm not being sexualized i don't care how people perceive me #but if gender was a buffet I'd take a tiny bite of girl and say yeah no thank you to a full serving #good omens #my hatred of the word woman has always been a ??? to me like i am SO uncomfortable being called a woman #i don't identify as a man but I'm even cool with being called that #just the word woman makes me feel gross #so that's some kind of hangup i have #unfortunately I'm Old so that's probably how a lot of people perceive me #can't win 'em all i guess
