I think there’s nothing wrong with carrying anger with you, as long as it doesn’t trip you up, or very often. As someone who has carried anger with me for years, it’s lessened over time. Having to sit with that anger and process it when and where i can (yay for being a spoonie) is unfortunately part of the process of healing.
Am i still angry about the shit that happened to me? Absolutely. It was wrong, unfair, demoralizing, and more. But coupled with my anger is a kind of odd grief for who i lost in the process of becoming someone who had to survive those situations.
Healing is a long and arduous process and learning how to heal yourself the way YOU need, instead of how others say/think you should, is the biggest part of the battle.
That being said, good luck on your healing journey and be kind to yourself during it. The world has been mean enough to you, don’t add your own meanness to it. 💜
Thank you for sharing this 💜
I am feeling strange because the toxic, abusive people are essentially out of our lives permanently but still live in state so it is technically possible to run into them someday. There's that element of unknown, of not getting the last word in, even though the healthiest thing for me and my family members to do is keep out of contact. That's what we do, but it doesn't stop me from occasional daydreams of confrontation, revenge, etc.
We are slowly reclaiming our peace. But I think it means we always have to carry that small, barren spot where peace could have grown if the soil was nurtured properly.

Blog Guide for the Unwary
Individual Characters:
(I mean I have... a LOT of them but these are the four main girls)
C'allie Kyho: a Seeker of the Sun raised tribal-style and believes every “nunh” is a failure, save her father C’kyho. Her life is full, due to her being polyamorous with four spouses and one “side piece,” as well as dealing with a growing collection of children and one fat fuck of a cat.
~ Carrd, Tag
Annalei d’Latu: a Veena Viera psychopathic murderous bitchbunny extraordinare who lusts after magical mastery, blood, aether, and mint desserts. (Not necessarily in that order.) She’s viciously married, easily angered and quick to violence. So she’s quite the catch!
~ Carrd, Blog, Tag
--Seifer d’Latu (Anna’s IC husband, played by my OOC husband)
Summer Bellmayne: a mystel raised in Il Mheg by the pixies with who makes a very, very comfortable living writing overblown romance novels. Rather like her fae relatives, she’s capricious and cruel and cheerful and friendly.
~ Carrd, Tag
Esti Kyton: a Seeker of the Sun raised... on the edges of a thriving tribe, she went from the frying pan to the fire when she left home. An aerial acrobat, a barista, a gentle heart, and a wounded soul, she just wants to be at peace. Perhaps one day.
~ Carrd, Tag
Other Subjects:
Rogues’ Gallery Carrd
(Look, I make a lot of alts for Discord RP I might as well have a place to list them, right? This has the ones like Leti-Mao and Pythia and Ilya.)
Angel’s Warrior of Light AU
(I was fine not having a WoL until Endwalker punched me in the face, so now I have Meli Iliakos and her “Scions of the Seventh Noonish” adventuring friends who’ve been fighting alongside her and the ACTUAL Scions since their first encounter with Titan.)
Screenshots
(So, so many screenshots...)
Landscapes
(Eorzean scenery!)
Asks/Replies
(Both the prompt lists and the replies)
OOC Blather
(I promise no quality control for what is here)
Signal Boost
(Usually for others’ events)
I’m Angel! I play FFXIV (Mateus on the Crystal Data Center) and spend a good 90% of my time in the game stuck in GPose. I work graveyard shifts, so I’m not a member of any RP FCs (alas!) and honestly, in game RP is a thing of the past 99% of the time. I’m married to Seifer d’Latu’s player, spend most of my time consuming books, love horror movies and good stories. I promise I only bite my husband, so feel free to wave at me if you see me in game (probably on Anna) or ping me if you just want someone to chat with!

Ride 749: The last Straight Road*
(NdT.: same pun Kinaka always makes with his name and the word for straight road)
Pag 1
1: I....
3: Imaizumi-san!!
4: Go- good work!!
Good work!!
You were taking a long time for this lap
Pag 2
1: Yes, teh, I got a fl-fl-flat- my bike!!
Yessir!!
2: It's the tire!!
4: Only tires can get a flat
Ah- damn, yes, that's right
Right!!
6: I thought something like this might have happened, so I brought these
Replacement tubes, tire levers, and a pump. Use them
Pag 3
2: This is unusual!! I never thought Imaizumi-san was the attentive type – is it just for us!?
Yeah!! I thought first and second years were just not important to him....
3: You don't want to use the,?
We'll use them, thank you so much!!
4: You saved us, teh....!!
That's true
6: Ah, uhm... but..... Imaizumi-san
Earlier you said that
7: Sugimoto-san won't come”, what did you mean?
Pag 4
1: He retired
Pag 5
1: He's still displayed on the board, but
3: There's still time until midnight
If Sugimoto-kun....
4: Please leave the possibility open in case Sugimoto-kun wants to come back!!
5: Onoda insisted
6: Re... tired.....
Sugi..... moto-san....
Pag 6
1: He used up all his stamina and mental strength in his fight against Danchiku, and he was defeated
2: You didn't notice because you've been on the course the whole time
4: Ah... actually, when it got dark, Sugimoto-san and Danchiku-san passed us various times... teh
Huh!? That? So at that time-!?
5: You have no time to talk about unimportant things
As soon as you're done with the repairs, run, first years
6: Soon
Pag 7
1: Waa, ye-yes, teh, thank you for the tools
Yeah, there's still 40km
2: If we join our strengths....
Don't cooperate
5: Teh!?

Amazing!
Ah, but there was no distance between them just now?
Pag 10
1: Fight....
2: The spot as a regular in the two-times national champion, Sohoku....
3: I can't take it by just being friendly....!!
4: And also
5: There's Sugimoto-san's wish!!
Pag 11
1: Wa- wait, please, Imaizumi-san
But.... if in this training camp the condition to become the sixth regular was to finish the 1000km first....
2: Then why did Sugimoto-san and Danchiku-san race!?
4: I came here to give you a message from Sugimoto
5: I think, I think it's necessary, you know
Sohoku is a team that connect and support each other
6: Just like during our first year, you, Naruko, and Onoda, connected your wishes and aimed for the goal
7: And last year Kaburagi ran with Aoyagi-san and carried the team until the mountains on the third day
8: So I think we need it
9: Our third year Inter High members
Pag 12

3: Even if he knew he was making his own situation worse, he thought about the best shape for the team would be
4: He accepted it, and fought
Pag 13
1: For the fifth place
3: Among the first years, those two are left, I look forward to see what they do!!
That's too much food
4: Danchiku probably understood it, too
That's why he fought with all his strength
6: Now you two have to run with the weight of those expectations on your back!!
7: Fight, against your opponent and against yourself!! Use all your strength
Pag 14
1: And pull to yourself that last jersey!!

If you give up, then it's lucky for me!!
2: My goal has always been the Inter High jersey!!
To get back at those senpai who made fun of me!!
3: To show it to the Onii-san who taught me how to ride bikes!!
So, for that....
6: So I'm telling you not to cry!!
Pag 17
1: But, Kinaka-kun....
It's that your “Straitgh road”, wasn't fast at all....!!
4: You knee? It's your knee, right?
Since when? Since a while ago?
5: Since when we were at about 800km
Pag 18
1: It's a race, Rokudai
2: You should have told me, teh
I didn't notice, teh!!
3: I'm such an incapable former manager, teh....
4: Since when I lost to you in the first years' race
6: I've been thinking that I would definitely not lose the next time we race
7: Even though the truth is that I don't really care about that anymore
So, once again...
Pag 19
