Ting. The clocktower chimed for midnight, its hand slicing into Goncharov’s psyche, yet the ringing in his own mind was more deafening. From the tower’s shadow emerged the shooter, his revolver drawn. Goncharov struggled to look up. His shooter’s silhouette came into focus, one that Goncharov had known all his life.
every now and then i leave tumblr for a few months cause i get hyper focused on something that's not really popular here so i have to look for other sources. but every now and then neil gaiman comes out with a new queer couple with tragic backstory and an even more tragic present and i cannot help but be dragged back into this hellsite as my obsession reignites once again.
Reminder that Jily has its own fandom and terrifically talented fic writers, who write out of the world fantastic fics, but 'you' may not be aware of that, because you keep ignoring this community with its fantastic works and anything that doesn't have the random fanon ships in the background, or only acknowledge Jily when it's ooc and in the background of other ships and rarely even written by its shippers. We don't need people who neither like nor know the characters, who don't want to write them to force themselves to do so, we never asked. Jily is also quite popular, has always been for decades, its one of the more popular ships in HP fandom, especially among canon ones. In fact, the "how is it so popular when they've been dead the whole series" has been the running joke for years in the bigger fandom. Maybe they're not AS popular as the made up, completely removed from who they are ships tend to get in fandoms or the weird tiktok goncharov ships that aren't even related to HP anymore, but I wouldn't want that anyway, I'd rather Jily stay as who they are, in character and retaining their essence and charm, because they're GOOD like that, them just being Jily already makes them perfect and we don't need them to be replaced by imposters to make a new ship. Neither do we want to. They became so big because of the natural chemistry the characters had in their one scene, not because fan-written original novels borrowing their names went viral on tiktok.
This was on my head when I heard the song ngl daslkfjndskfjandsf
Despite shipping Rody with Vincent, my girl Manon did not deserve to die like that TvT
In the beginning, I thought Manon was just some girl leading on Rody but at the end I realize the whole context of Manon and Rody's relationship. Manon did love Rody but seeing how Rody is willing to self-destruct just to keep her happy, she already realize both of them will end up miserable so she had to be the one to end it for their sake like damn
THE FACT MANON STILL HAD THE LOCKET WAS DKFLJNADSKFJNADSKJNASDKFJNAS THE ANGST THIS GAME BRINGS I SWEAR--
Rest in Peace, Manon. You had little screentime but you also made a big impact on the game.
Tina Belcher would have such a crush on Daria Morgendorffer and Daria's like episode arc would be slowly seeing the importance of tolerating Tina (in small doses) in order to be a good influence on her.
