#and he is holding on by a THREAD.

i'm at work but someone dare me when I'm off to write the cas/hawkeye/margaret (dean/cas & hawkeye/margaret) time-traveling post 15x19 ptsd fic that I suddenly very much want to write

#writing ref #listen cas comes back from the empty in the wrong place and time #and his time in the empty has NOT been kind to him #and he is holding on by a THREAD. #and he walks into the 4077 basically shellshocked #and he doesn't have his angelic healing anymore but he DOES know how to handle surgery #so they kind of assume he's been separated from his unit and just. kind of. keep him. #oh potter has radar circulate his info so they can try to find his unit. but in the meantime? #in the meantime he sleeps in the swamp and listens to classical music with charles and listens to bj's stories about erin & peg #he listens to klinger talk about chicago and listens to radar talk about the family farm #he listens to the nurses talk about their plans for after the war and he listens to margaret and hawkeye bicker #he sits quietly with potter while he paints #and he speaks with mulcahy. oh with mulcahy he talks and talks and talks. #terrified that this man - this genuinely good man - will someday give a yes where he should give a no. because he's shining with it. #but as the days stretch and his nightmares show no signs of diminishing and his silence grows and his surgical skills continue to impress #margaret and hawkeye - who spend the most time watching him in surgery - decide to stage an intervention. #at roughly the same point sidney is finally free to come down to the 4077 #and when sidney manages to pull at least some of the tangled mess of isolation and touch-starved and insomnia and heartbreak from cas #hawkeye and margaret find it natural to want to. soothe. as they so often have soothed each other. #and they aren't thinking /that way/ per se. but then dean's name comes from cas' mouth. a man's name. and things. progress. #and cas knows he can't stay here forever #but hawkeye and margaret won't stay here forever either. none of them will. #this is a bubble of time. endless and yet already over. #and cas can't breathe most days let alone face dean - dean who doesn't - dean who won't - #cas has scars on both of his bodies. his wings and this human skin. the empty wasn't. kind. as he knew going in. #but he's had so little kindness in his life. #he'll go back because he has to face it. has to face him. but for a little while. until he can find a way (flightless. powerless) home. #he'll stay. #mash #spn

I know it's because they both have Issues TM but in retrospect it's a little bit funny that Donna is insecure about her place with The Doctor and wonders whether she deserves to travel the stars or is worthwhile as a friend while Ten is just sitting in the corner like "if I get separated from Donna I'm gonna explode the universe and then myself" and then he does.

#doctor who #tennant doctor #donna noble #donna: sometimes i dont know why hes willing to travel with me #ten: yeah lmao shes the thread that holds what little sanity i have left 💖 #tenth doctor

#i have so much love for botw link #he remembers nothing but the weight of the sword #he is willing to take in incredible amounts of pain and responsibility just to understand himself and his previous life a bit better #its not as if he’s not responsible and courageous #but this iteration of link has lost so much-even before the game it seems taking his destiny has made him quiet #dunno remember who was it who wrote #‘the sword became a needle snd with the thread of destiny; it sew his lips’ #but apart from the desesperation of looking for a trace of himself in all things #he is also guilty and scared of what his past holds #anyways i should write a fanfic not pour this into tags #botw #breath of the wild #link #legend of zelda #master sword #animation #procreate dreams #link botw

god i want. an au where it dosn't work. where it's just arr g'raha who's woken up, and he doesn't have all these memories and all these people keep looking at him like they're mourning someone. the world has changed and time has changed and all the people he knows have changed, but he hasn't changed, he was just sleeping, just sleeping, and the world nearly ended several times and apparently he helped prevent yet another end but he has no memory of this. they want him to join the scions. he does not know these people. (he barely knows the warrior of light, now, but did he ever truly know them in the first place?) his little sister is alive and well. she looks at him like a ghost. she's changed, and she's older than him now. he acts bratty and loud and brash to cover up the fact that he does not know anything it seems, and he is tired but he was sleeping for so long, so how could he be tired?

he doesn't know these people. they seem to know him. he wonders if he'd killed someone, when it was him and not that exarch who woke up. he wonders if it should have been him who was "killed" in that way, if it is him that lives and not that man who had known and become friends with all these figures from legend. he wonders if he'll always be fated to be a historian one step back from everything, because he simply cannot be a hero.

#bound with thread | original posts #letters in verse | talking #g'raha tia #crystal exarch #hello everyone i am being Incredibly Normal about g'raha tia at -checks time- 12:02 am #you ever think about the fact that arr g'raha is basically killed/replaced when the exarch wakes up in 5.3. because i do. a lot #hi i have brainworms over this man he's SO tragic and i need to hold him gently in my hands like how you cradle a small trembling kitten #genuinely happy about his character growth and progression and happy ending and all but arr g'raha was the one who grabbed my focus #and i do miss a lot of that character sometimes yknow? post-shb g'raha isn't the same person as arr g'raha and that's intentional‚ i think‚ #because he has gone through so much that we didn't see. so much trauma and pain because of the 8th umbral era and that loss he got hit with #and he's not the same person because he's *had* to change so much to keep himself and his people alive and i'm glad he's getting to #experience life to the fullest in endwalker onwards but just. i miss arr g'raha yknow #honestly the silliest thing about it is i miss his student of baldesion tattoo. was a fun little design element you know. #show us the tattoo again squeenix. give him back his red eyeshadow that he had. #give him his bow back i am begging #this has been: incomprehensible ramblings from simon at 12 at night

Kim Roksoo’s parents must have been really sweet and loving people.

Even with all the pain he experienced because of his uncle, and losing his parents, he still didn’t become a bad person when everything was set against him.

Like with the children averaging whatever years old, KRS takes care of them and is in general a good father(I mean I question his lack of communication towards his children, like please tell them you have a healing ability at least tell your kids dude please please please please please) but that’s just a general KRS problem coming from the years and years he spent relying only on himself for various reasons.

His parents probably loved him a lot, they cared for him and they showed him what it was like to be loved. That just makes the fact that they died so early on in his life more terrible. Kim Roksoo may not remember them well, but I like to think that when they were alive, he was happy.

#rambling #tcf #trash of the count's family #lcf #lout of the count’s family #tcf novel #lcf novel #Kim Roksoo #no but this guy actually needs to tell people abt his healing ability #I’m actually crying #like can he at least tell Raon #lil bro is crying all the time because he thinks Cale will kick the bucket #I imagine that in everyone else’s eyes #Cale is like that one old dog who keeps on living despite the dangerous incidents ut gets into everyday #they must think he’s holding onto life by a thread #I’m crying #I actually dunno if he tells anyone abt vitality of the heart but he should! #Cale is so annoying because he’s coughing up gallons of blood and he’s like ‘no im fine lol’ #LIAR LIAR LIAR LIAR LIAR #Or at least they think he’s lying #but like #with the amount of times he’s passed out to heal his body #you’d think he’d think abt telling them that he has a healing AP #sighhhhhh Cale…

do you ever think about damen getting a hug for the first time he can remember. do you ever think about how it was from laurent. do you ever think about how, in that moment, when damen was lost and struggling to hold himself together, laurent knew exactly what he needed

#i adore damen in king's rising but i wish for more resolution regarding his blatant trauma and issues #he spends at least the first half of the book literally holding himself together by a thread #captive prince

Eddie’s alive, just stuck in the Upside Down, but he doesn’t go to Dustin or Mike or Lucas—oh, no. And not even Steve, either, no matter how much he respects the dude.

Nah, Eddie traverses the woods of the Upside Down, knows where that old beat up truck sits that he and Wayne found a few months ago during season that they fixed up with the blessing of the landowner, and waits for his uncle there. 

Eddie’s trailer is fucked and he knows Wayne doesn’t have the money to afford a hotel room, so he sits in that truck in the woods, shivering and bleeding and singing songs to keep himself awake, and waits until Wayne turns it on.

And when he does in a few hours, Springsteen’s faintly heard and Eddie laughs because he loves his uncle, adores the man and he wishes he told him more of that when he had the chance, but he’s determined he’ll have more time later, he just has to get out of this hellish place first, and so he starts talking. 

It startles Wayne at first, swears and yells flying, and then there’s tears shared between them, so close and yet so far apart. Eddie explains what he can, pressing his hands into his wounds in hopes of slowing the bleeding, and he tells Wayne to hurry with an aborted, “I love you.” 

Wayne hurries. He fishes his rifle out from beneath his seat and thinks—about the kids who joined Eddie's club, about the band kid and the kid with the questions and the other kid, too, with soft brown eyes and a sad smile when he ducked his head in acknowledgment—and takes off. 

He finds Harrington’s house, knocks on the door until the kid comes running. He slings it wide, revealing himself and the band kid and Henderson, Wayne thinks, who's momma is sweet and kind at the diner, and says, “My nephew is alive. Let’s go get him.”

And he didn’t know what he expected from this kid—if he thought he’d get directions or what—but he’s surprised when Harrington nods, slips on some shoes, and follows him outside to his truck where Eddie's voice is still coming through the radio. 

Harrington says hi, a broken sort of thing, and promises they’re on the way, for him to just stay where he’s at, and Eddie giggles, says, “My knight in shining armor,” because he's always been romantic, and Harrington goes red and says, “Goddamn right I am,” and Wayne listens to Eddie's laughter the whole way to the portal that takes them to the other world. 

It's dark and ugly and dead, but they find Eddie fast. He’s bleeding out, blubbering as soon as he sees Wayne and Steve—“Call me Steve, please.”—and it takes both of them to carry Eddie up and out of that shithole dimension. 

They take him to the hospital, Eddie resting in Steve's arms the whole way, and as soon as Eddie's taken back and stabilized, Wayne and Steve collapse in the hallway. They’re quiet when they do it, but Steve's tears are hot and Wayne’s grip is tight and they hold one another close. They ask a nurse for an extra bed in Eddie's room; she’s reluctant but she does it anyway when Steve asks nicely. 

Wayne and Steve camp Eddie's room as he rests, talking quietly and getting to know one another better and sharing stories of Eddie. soon, Wayne passes out in the recliner—helps his back if he sleeps upright since those discs have been deteriorating—and wakes up a few hours later to see the extra bed unused.

Steve’s crawled up into Eddie's bed with him, nestled close and tight, and they’re both awake, faces turned toward one another as they giggle and whisper and chuckle, but Wayne can’t hear them and he thinks that’s okay. 

He rests some more, content to listen to the soft sounds of his boys—his boys, ‘cause Harrington is his now; a decision he made when he saw the darkness in the kid's eyes that reminds him so much of his own shit—lull him to sleep. 

That is, until one Dustin Henderson hears the news that Eddie's alive and safe and recovering. He causes a ruckus and a half, and the hospital staff is in shambles, and Wayne laughs because he might just have to make Dustin one of his own, too.

Honestly, even without Art’s attempts at manipulation and sabotage, I don’t think Patrick and Tashi’s relationship would’ve survived anyway. Before they started dating, Patrick was criticizing her career plans and Tashi was never interested in entertaining his massive ego at her expense. Passion and chemistry are important to relationships, but if that’s the only foundation, it’s gonna crumble quickly.

The only difference between Patrick/Tashi vs Art/Tashi is that the relationship would’ve ending with a bang instead of a whimper.

#challengers #challengers spoilers #patrick and tashi need art between them #his willingness to submit even when done so with manipulative intentions does let tashi and patrick to indulge in their desire for control #the movie makes a point of saying that patrick is constantly shooting himself in the foot because he’s unwilling to humble himself #art let patrick get away with a LOT but tashi does and would not #but even tho patrick does get to the point where he can humble himself it’s still necessary for patrick to go off script and stir shit up #the way the film ends makes it abundantly clear that all three of them need each other to function #and that each person brings something different to the trio that each person needs #so i don’t buy that patrick and tashi could’ve worked things out on their own #tashi so clearly likes art’s dependence and loyalty to her #while also getting a lot from patrick’s passion and pushback #would also like to say that i personally love when art’s a mean little bitch #not only cause it’s fun but because it really seems born out of a fear of being left alone/behind #spreading my ‘art’s a greedy pillow princess that actually needs TWO tops to handle him’ agenda #and wrt the injury…sorry no one’s actually at fault for that #not only could no one could ever engineer something like that #it could’ve happened at any time because that’s life #in the film it’s meant to underscore the danger of disharmony between all three of them #and snap the tenuous thread holding all three of them together #and placing blame kind of misses the overall point the film is going for wrt the relationship between all three #hey is it just me or has this film broken my brain
