Cute little details that stood out to me:
1. During the gift exchange, Poppy does two little brief laughs, each more like a single cute ‘heh’... I bet that’s “every time you laugh you make that little sound” Branch referred to in TWT Perfect For Me :)
2. Branch acting unaware that she got his name to avoid spoiling her moment
3. He ducks his head and smiles shyly when she calls him cute :)
4. She runs her hand lovingly over the scrapbook cover’s text :)
5. The Hug - the extra squeeze and her quick dazed look
6. The invitations out in the open!!  So glad they made a reappearance, that has always been one of my favourite things from the first movie.  I find it interesting how in Trolls 1 there are two shelves then in HiH the bottom shelf is empty: no way he got rid of them, so maybe he’s moving them somewhere better, all around bunker?  I would really love to know if he showed her them on purpose or if she stumbled across them, either one would be so sweet!  She made him all those cards and now he made her a scrapbook in return!
7. His hand over hers while emptying the basket for the Funk trolls.
8. The swing’s opposite hair colours, continuing with theme of them being connected / compatible from TWT (after their fight during Perfect For Me she’s in the shadows and he’s in the light, in the credits her goggles are blue and his are pink, in contrast to when he was trying to confess to her in the beginning and he’s in the shadows / she’s in the light)
9. More ear movements like in Trolls 1, particularly Branch’s, but Poppy’s do a bit when he hands her the scrapbook.  Subtle motions, but really emphasizes the emotion in the scene.
*10. Rewatched the movie (again) and decided to add this in: I just think it’s cute how she’s watching / smiling at him as he exits the balloon.  He seems happy too the way he hopped off and was smiling as he started to walk away - even though it wasn’t much of a ‘date’, they still both enjoyed the little hangout!
11. Branch being so concerned about disappointing Poppy if his gift is too meagre.  And while we all know (he probably does too) that Poppy would never stuff him into a blender or anything remotely close for any reason, the fact that he doesn’t want to risk his relationship in the slightest way and wants the gift to be perfect is adorable, great first steps of a new couple.  He may be much happier and sillier, but he’s still cautious nervous Branch, and I love that he’s changed so much, yet he’s still him.
~Also, the ring implication: proposing to her has obviously crossed his mind, but he knows it would be too much way too soon, they’ve taken things slowly even when they were friends; he of all trolls would never take such a sudden and huge step, neither is ready for that at this point.
~~~
2nd Pic: Parallels from previous movies: Trolls Holiday vs HiH “Go Big or Go Home” perspective... TWT vs HiH “blow up in your face” idea... TWT vs HiH leaning on balloon stance.
~~~
(I may add more if I think of more...). EDIT: I thought of more!
3rd Pic: @dreamsinger-rose here are the best screenshots I could get of the moment between the kiss and the balloon - he seems to lean a bit toward her, but now that I take another look I guess she tilts her head away shyly, and you can’t really see his smile very well either - but it’s still a cute moment!
4th Pic: His glimpse down at her lips!  dreamsinger-rose mentioned this and more down in the comments - I had noticed the glimpse myself but didn’t bother adding it as I’d seen it pointed out in other places, but then I thought why not, it’s a cute little observation!
5th Pic: Closeness in the balloon ride, also mentioned by dreamsinger-rose!  BONUS: his little smirk when she shushes him, and the way her finger lingers even as she walks away!
6th Pic: Not exactly a little detail, probably everyone noticed but still: Barb referring to Branch as Poppy’s boyfriend (not teasingly this time), and Branch directly saying ‘relationship’ instead of friendship.
7th Pic: Poppy was so excited to get her bf’s name... but there was also a moment of doubt / pondering / puzzlement, realizing she couldn’t instantly think of the perfect gift and/or wondering what she could get “the coolest troll in the world” (still love that she called him that!), but she shrugs it off and goes back to her usual optimism.  (I talk more about this in a previous post of “nervous Poppy”)
8th Pic: Poppy being considerate: she’s finally willing to focus 100% of her attention on him, no interruptions or distractions, to actually spend some quality time with him instead of have him just tag along while she works.  And some smaller points: suggesting they say the names at the same time, asking if he wants to go first instead of telling him to, and listening to / approving of his idea.
~~~~~
Okay, I think I’m done now XD

The great adventures of y/n tommy tubbo and ranboo - the best mcc team
this is an extra to the great adventures series
the moment you found out ranboo got into mcc you instantly ran into the room you were sharing pulling him into a hug you were honestly so proud of him and he was going to be with tubbo
“BOO I'M SO PROUD OF YOU YOU'RE GOING TO DO AMAZING”
unfortunately, you weren’t going to be in mcc this month but that didn’t stop you from being over the moon for your friend. when it was finally time for mcc you wished your friend good luck and apologised for not being able to watch his pov as you weren’t about to break the tradition of watching Tommy after all he was your first and biggest supporter. 3 hours later the event ended and everyone who was watching ranboos pov heard you faintly screaming at Tommy over discord whilst tubbo sat laughing and ranboo was concerned, he heard from Tommy that you would often yell at him however he didn’t believe that he was being honest
“FUCK YOU TOMMY STOP LAUGHING YOU HIT ME IN TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE ON PURPOSE THEN LAUGHED ABOUT ME NOT BEING IN…..fine when I get in I’m requesting to be on Scott's team…I’m still mad at you but you did great I'm so proud of you congrats Tommy I’ll see you soon goodbye”
at the start of the next month, you received a message from Scott
Scott: so I have a few things to tell you 1 - how would you feel about becoming head twitch mod it’s only fair you’ve been my mod for a while and 2 - welcome to mcc make sure to fill in the form asap!
y/n: 1 - of course I’d love to be head twitch mod and 2 - heh??
not long later you received a form at the same time as your friends, you decided not to tell anyone and somehow you managed to keep it a secret, Scott agreed to lie to the others about whos team they’re on as he knew how excited everyone was going to be. today was the day your big secret would be released, you Tommy tubbo and ranboo were sat outside when the notification went out announcing the team honestly you’ll never forget the look on their faces when they realised
MCChampionship_ tweeted: 👑announcing team green guardians 👑
@tommyinnit @tubbolive @ranboosaysstuff @y/n
Watch them in MCC on Saturday, August 28th at 8 pm BST!
“Y/N WHAT THE FUCK”
“congrats y/n”
ranboo didn’t say anything he just tackled you into a hug like you did last month when you found he was in mcc. Tommy and tubbo were still processing what they just read
“Scott fucking lied to me”
“aye I told him to”
“what the fuck”
from then the four of you would constantly stream with each other on the mcc training server, you were a strong team when you weren’t yelling at each other.
time flew by soon enough it was the 28th of August. Tommy genuinely couldn’t believe it his best friend was in mcc and on a team with him and he genuinely believed you all had a decent chance in winning as you were a strong team. Tommy invited you over to stream mcc he claimed it was because there would be three people trying to stream in the same room, in reality, it was because he wanted to see your reaction and be there for your first mcc.
Tommy let you stream from his room he had spent the previous night getting advice from tubbo on how he managed to set up so he could stream with ranboo in the same room.
“you ready y/n”
“of course I’ve been watching and learning from the best”
you and Tommy set up and joined the discord call and the mcc server, it was finally time. similarly to ranboo this was something you had wanted to do since Tommy told you all about it on your way home from school one day. 30 minutes later it was time for the games to begin and this is where the chaos began.
“you know what I hope it’s build mart”
“what the fuck y/n”
“fuck you I’m good at build mart- oh you’re joking it’s fucking parkour tag”
this is when you realised that two screaming teenagers in the same room both trying to stream the event wasn’t the best idea, you and Tommy would constantly scream at poor ranboo who was just trying to hunt the other team
“RANBOO CATCH THEM”
“really y/n?! I thought I’d let them win this round”
unsurprisingly your team was doing great you had won 7/8 rounds but there was still one more round, determined to be the one to get dream you decided to be the hunter
“y/n don’t worry if you can’t get them we’re doing well”
“Y/N IGNORE RANBOO ME AND TOMMY DON'T WANT TO LOSE”
“not putting pressure on me at all thank you boys”
being close friends with technoblade gave you an advantage you didn’t expect due to the fact he helped to “train” you for your first mcc which ended up being the reason you were able to catch them all and then helped the others avoid being caught
“tubbo he's to your left TUBBO I SAID HES TO YOUR LEFT WHY ARE YOU GOING LEFT TOMMY RUN RUN RUN RUN ranboo you’re doing great”
“NO WAY”
you had just successfully won the round against dream sapnap George and quackity and you would never let dream live this down
“do you guys think dream will let me be in one of his manhunts now”
“no”
“fuck you tubbo you’re just mad you couldn’t catch all the runners in yellow yaks. you couldn’t catch jack manifold”
so far everything was going well you were currently in 4th place and your team had high hopes. you all felt the need to confirm to your chats that you’re all not actually mad at each other and not to worry about everything.
the next game was survival games ranboo wasn’t ready for this due to the last mcc where he died pretty early on, it started well you all stuck together as a team until the game was nearly over and you got distracted by a chest and ran away from the others whilst they were fighting another team this ended up being a happy accident in disguise you got the notification that Tommy tubbo and ranboo were killed fighting another team
“oh fuck”
“WE COULD HAVE WON WAIT Y/N DID YOU DIE”
“no”
tubbo could practically hear your smile as you explained to them that you ran off and was currently under a tree watching the others fight, you used the fact they died in the game to your advantage they would tell you if anyone was coming to attack you whilst you ran around collecting loot avoiding the others shooting arrows
“AYO STOP FUCKING SHOOTING ME ITS MY FIRST MCC LET ME WIN”
“Y/N HAVE YOU GOT LAVA”
“I DO AAAAAA PISS OFF LET ME WIN”
“USE THE LAVA YOU CAN EASILY TAKE OUT HALF OF THE REMAINING PLAYERS”
to everyone’s surprise, it worked due to the border being smaller so there was less room to run soon it was you vs punz at this point you were determined to win
“GO Y/N GO GO GO HIT HIM YOU CAN DO IT”
“you’re doing so well y/n”
some may call it beginners luck but you ended up winning the fight against punz
“LETS FUCKING GO Y/N”
“I DID IT OH MY GOD”
the next game was hole in the wall and long story short you sucked, ranboo on the other hand did not. it didn’t take long for you to fall every single round. this helped the others though as you were able to yell which side the wall was coming from
“fuck this stupid game the wall hates me”
“y/n you're supposed to jump through the gaps“
“you know what no I’m going to get on a sapnap alt stream by glitching through”
this didn’t work you died again
“well fuck there I go I guess you’ve got this though guys Tommy you’re doing decent”
“I'm doing great thank you- oh I died FUCK YOU FOR DISTRACTING ME”
“blah blah blah GO TUBBO AND RANBOO”
you couldn’t believe it ranboo was one of the final people remaining, unfortunately, ranboo jumped too late resulting in him falling but nonetheless you were proud of him
“unlucky boo you all did great”
the next game was battle box the four of you had been practising this a lot so there was a lot of pressure to do well especially since you were now in the top 3 on the leaderboard, the strategies you made from practicing paid off you managed to win the majority of the rounds, however, there was a lot of screaming and arguing during the last round
“RANBOO STOP STEALING MY KILLS OR I'M GOING TO START HITTING YOU WITH A SWORD”
“he’s been stealing mine too y/n”
tubbo was honestly playing well during this game and you were amazed
unfortunately, the arguing resulted in you losing the round as you were all focusing on arguing which meant you missed the other team rushing to wool
“unlucky boys”
“7 wins out of 9 rounds honestly isn’t that bad we should still be third we just need to stay strong with the rest of the games”
during the break before the last four games, the four of you sat making plans for the next few round
“I want to get to the other side last I think that will be our strength”
there was still a rather long break left so you did what anyone else would do run around the server and yell this was a huge mistake as it messed with the soundproofing resulting in tommys mic picking you up and vice versa
“so I guess we’re streaming like this now”
“FIX IT”
“well since you asked so nicely tubso…no”
tubbo ended up doing the same to the soundproofing in the room he was in with ranboo were in meaning all four of you were now having a scuffed stream as you ran out of time to fix it because before you knew it, it was time to play sky battle
“right we should go left”
“tubbo will get iron Tommy will make the bridge and y/n will do…something”
you did the same thing techno did in the pride mcc and hid occasionally breaking blocks from underneath people so they would fall the others were doing well the game was a mixture of you all encouraging each other and you all cursing each other out whilst ranboo ignored you all and spoke to his chat
“chat I know you can hear double everyone if I could fix it I would but tubbo y/n and Tommy are being too stubborn to fix everything and we don’t have time”
“Y/N WHERE ARE YOU”
“making people fall to their death can we talk about our feelings now because this is stressful as hell”
“NOT THE TIME”
you all did decently you weren’t amazing at this game but that was expected it was something you all weren’t the biggest fan of but somehow you were all still in third place and that was something you weren’t expecting especially for your first mcc
it was now time for sands of time you all needed to do well
“bruh I wanted build mart what the fuck is this”
“we’re not going to win this game boys”
and tubbo would be corrected that that statement, you ended up having a visual glitch making it difficult, Tommy would constantly get trapped in a dungeon like last time things weren’t loading for ranboo you had no idea what tubbo was doing and quite frankly you didn’t want to find out unless it was going to be good news and considering all you could hear was tubbo yelling anything that came to mind you could guess it wasn’t going well. you tried to rage quit a couple of times only to be yelled at by the others every time you disconnected from the server
“Y/N STOP LEAVING”
“I CAN'T SEE SHIT”
“you’re doing well y/n stay calm we’re going to be fine”
“OH I CAN'T PLAY THIS GAME I'M DYSLEXIC”
“CLEARLY WE'RE NOT FINE TUBBO IS STRUGGLING TOMMY IS LOCKED IN A DUNGEON AND I CAN'T SEE SHIT...HAVE YOU GOT THE LETTER N YET”
“no, they’re spawning one in for me”
“could them maybe I don’t know speed up the process”
yeah you ended up losing that game and got knocked down the 4th good news is it was only by a couple hundred points
next up was ace race
“do yous reckon Scott's tested this map”
“aren’t you his head twitch mod”
“you’re right I'll message him and find out”
luckily you all managed to do pretty well, Tommy was off to a great start you tubbo and ranboo weren’t far behind you all agreed to follow each other rather than the crowd which paid off as when everyone else went the wrong way rather than following you all managed to go the right way thanks to ranboo yelling he thinks that he knows where to go and thankfully he was correct which put Tommy first tubbo second ranboo third and you fourth, you all ended up lapping people on your final lap and honestly, none of you guessed this would happen but you weren’t exactly complaining. a few moments later you all crossed the finishing line and were the first team to finish giving you the bonus points you needed to push you to second place
“did you know since I first got into mcc I would put y/ns name down for who I wanted to play with”
“TOMMY OH MY GODDDD”
a few seconds later you showed up on Tommy's face cam as you ran over to him giving him a hug
“you’re doing great y/n we might get into dodgebolt”
“dude we’re winning this shit”
soon enough it was time for the last game (unless you got into dodgebolt) and luckily it was to get to the other side
“we've got this we have actually got this we’re going to get to dodgebolt”
you stuck with Tommy for almost every round mainly because speed bridging wasn’t for you. you were all doing great you were the first team to finish for multiple rounds however you were also the last team to finish for a few rounds
“boys I'm not sure if we’ll get through”
“We all had fun”
“if we get into dodgebolt we’re going to be against dream”
“WILL YOU ALL FUCKING FOCUS”
“no- OW TOMMY HIT ME WITH A PEN”
“IT WAS THE CLOSEST THING WOULD YOU RATHER I CHUCK MY COMPUTER MOUSE”
“will you two quit fighting we’re about to find out the final scores.”
3..2..1
“oh my god”
“what the fuck”
“ranboo and y/n are about to play dodgebolt”
“LETS GO WHAT THE FUCK”
you all did it you successfully kept 2nd place somehow now all you had to do was win dodgebolt against dream George sapnap and quackity. safe to say you and ranboo were nervous as fuck and rightfully so as you all lost the first game
“let’s be serious we need to focus now”
you all won the next round
“LETS FUCKING GO WE'VE GOT THIS”
it was now the third round Tommy and tubbo were now out it was you and ranboo against dream and sapnap
“bruh were fucked ranboo”
ranboo took aim and somehow hit sapnap whilst you took a moment to type a message in chat
y/n: it’s my first mcc how do you feel knowing you’re about to lose
it was now your turn to take aim and Tommy yelling in the background wasn’t helping you and the yelling made you shoot before you were ready luckily ranboo picked up an arrow and was able to hit dream, it was now 1 vs 2 if you won this round you would all be the champions and that’s exactly what happened you all quit yelling at each other hell you muted the discord call so you could focus all you could hear was Tommy next to you occasionally supporting you
“come on y/n final round. you’re about to win your first mcc I’m so proud of you”
“you’re doing amazing Tommy thank you for everything now let’s win this thing”
and just like that, it was over Tommy took the final shot and hit sapnap
you all unmuted the four of you yelling
“TOMMY TUBBO RANBOO I'M SO PROUD OF YOU GUYS”
“WE DID IT WE FUCKING DID IT”
“OH MY GOD”
“WELL DONE EVERYONE”
this time Tommy ran over to you pulling you into a hug he was genuinely so proud of you and the others
“you did it y/n you won your first mcc that’s amazing”
“I couldn’t have done it without you or the others I love you all”
after talking to the other teams and ending stream
you and Tommy stayed on call with tubbo and ranboo
“you two need to make your way back here”
“me and y/n could probably catch a train if we’re very quick”
you nodded and quickly grabbed everything you needed thankfully your good luck hadn’t come to an end yet as you and Tommy were able to catch one of the last trains, Tommy had an arm around you as he noticed you were getting tired after all you did just go through the stress of your first mcc to over 170k viewers you ended up falling asleep on his shoulder a few hours passed and you were at the last stop Tommy lightly tapped your shoulder
“hey y/n were here tubbo and ranboo are waiting for us over there…let’s go celebrate this win shall we”
an: do not publish my work :)

This is part 3 of the Comprehensive Analysis of c!Tommy and c!Dream’s relationship during the Exile Arc
Part 1 -  Part 2
Here we go again! When I started this I did NOT think it would be this long or take this much time, that said the Exile Arc is very nice to rewatch. There are a lot of little moments I didn’t notice on first watch. 
Anyway, as always from here on out it’ll all be about the characters and we will be discussing some heavy topics so do keep that in mind!
We are now onte the 4th proper Exile stream: Tommy Is Holding It Together in Exile with Dream
This one peculiarly enough does not start with Tommy drowning. Also I want to mention that this is the second time during exile where Tommy mentions that he thinks he is allucinating. The first time it was in regard to seeing a group of mobs, this time it was in regard to Tubbo being on-line. Also at the beginning of the stream he finds a present left from HBomb consisting of 1 fire resistance potion 1 strenght II potion, Wait and a photo of the Queen, Tubbo and Vikkstar.
“We need to do something and quick today. I don’t know if you’ve noticed but every single day at the start of my stream Dream logs on uh... and I’m starting... *sigh* he said that Technoblade was over there” (moment when he decides to go scout out Techno’s cabin)
“Okay, what if- just- just to investigate it because I know- I know that big man Dream wouldn’t be too happy if he knew so...” (the manipulation is turning out to be quite effective)
By the way, the reason Tommy states for wanting to see Techno at this point is literally just too feel again like there was someone near (he did say “to smell” someone near, which does tie in with him saying he could “almost smell” Dream when he was searching Techno’s cabin when only Ghostbur and Tommy were there, which I’m sure we could analize further, but I won’t), not to team with him. Once again, :t no point was it Tommy’s intention for them to team up. 
“I’m very lonely out here heh, I’m very lonely back home” (casual use of “home” to referr to Logstedshire)
“I wanna go back, I wanna go back. I don’t like this no I don’t like this now we’ve been away for too long” (panicked speach patterns get worse the longer he is away)
“Friend??? No, horse” (Lmao)
“Dream wouldn’t want me going in here...” “Dream wouldn’t like it if I was here! Dream wouldn’t like it if I stole! He’d loose his shit, he’d loose his shit. Surely not...” *Dream joins the game* “oh Oh OH NO! I’m in deep fried shit!”
I want to point out that I personally think a bit of time has passed since last stream, mainly because of this progression. At this point it’s not only fear of physical pain prompting him to act a certain way, it’s also Dream’s conditioning: suddenly what Dream wants it’s extremely important and the same goes with what he would and wouldn’t approve of. And, if I remember correctly, this particular scene was quite the eye opener for a lot of the audience at the time. 
“Okay we run back we run back we run back we run back *screams* okay which way’s back? which way’s back? which way’s back? He [Dream] can’t know he can’t know” (panicked speach patterns once again, getting worse)
“I knew I shouldn’t have gone there, that was stupid that was stupid that was stupid” (self-loathing)
“Now how do I get home?” “No no, chat, we should just get home!” “We should probably get home quick” “Is anyone at home? Maybe Wilbur came home” (Logsteshire has now the title of “home”, but it’s definitely not safe)
“No!” *creeper blows up* “*sigh* I deserve that” (self-loathing)
“You know let’s clean up our land. What we need to do before... before He arrives. Maybe we should make a little safe spot, nah, there isn’t enough time today. You know I reckon after last night He is gonna be okay with us, He is gonna be much more...” (hard time speaking or thinking about Dream)
Tommy proceeds to seat down with the compass listening to Far and looking towards L’Manburg for a while. Then Tubbo (hallucination, which is quite worrying) comes out of the portal with the compass in hand and they stare at each other for a bit, after that he keeps seeing Tubbo (always hallucination) throughout the stream. 
“I actually just woke up Tommy and I came straight here, to visit you” “Why would you go stra- straight here?” “Because I wanted to see you~” “Why?” “Uh, because we’re friends” “Oh yeah... hi Dream!” “Hello”
Dream arrives and blows up Tommy’s armour and weapons (I actually did not remember about Dream taking the weapons every time as well, but it does make sense in Dream’s f*cked up way considering that his intent was leaving Tommy entirely defenceless so that he would be more dependent on him). This time though, Dream makes Tommy light up the tnt, with minimal resistance from Tommy at this point (he just says: “I don’t really want to”, but he can’t bring himself to resist more then that). 
I do find quite interesting that every time they seem to have the blowing up and insecurities part of the conversation at first and then basically re-start all over. It happened last stream as well. Also, Dream keeps accentuating 2 points to Tommy: how everything back in L’Manburg is better without him there and how, while it is basically effortless to come visit Tommy, he is the only one making the effort (even going as far as going to visit first thing in the morning). 
“I’ve had a little idea by the way, I want to know what you think” “Okay” “And also if I’m allowed” “Okay” “*sigh* Basically, I’ve been thinking, you know how we made our Big Path to get home?” “Yes, it’s been a little while” “Yeah yeah, I’m thinking: I throw a party!”
So, couple of things to talk about here: Tommy feels the need to constantly ask Dream for permission (because Dream just puts so many rules to this supposed “exile”), another indication of some time having passed since the last stream for them, considering that the last stream was literally the day before irl (I’m talking about the “it’s been a little while” part) and also this is when we are introduced to the idea of the party.
“I’m allowed? I’m allowed?” “Yeah, can I come?” “Of co- uh- yeah” “Okay, they’re allowed to come” (talking about the party)
“Well Dream, is it me or is it you that’s been left by themselves for about 13 days now?” (irl it’s been 4-5 days, though at least now we have a bit of a timeframe for them as well)
Ghostbur arrives with Phil (who gifts Tommy the Tommy Slippers, which are a pair of diamond boots, a stack of black wool, 8 iron blocks and a Friendship Emerald) 
“Guys are you- are you real?” “Am I real?” “Because I keep fucking seeing... I keep seeing Tubbo” (Tommy finally mentioning the hallucination to others, also Ghostbur pretends to see him, though it was confirmed later on that he wasn’t there)
“Dream’s here by the way, Dream’s always here” (now that’s kinda ominous)
“Dream, Dream I swear to Christ I think I just kept seeing Tubbo” “I didn’t see him, I never saw him once. Phil didn’t see him either, it was only you and Wilbur. Pretty sure he wasn’t here~” “My eyes are not the most reliable, I see lots of things” 
I’d say from here on out is when Tommy starts trusting Dream over his and Ghostbur’s perceptions of reality. After all, as I said at the start, this is not the first, nor the last time where he questions his own perception of reality and, as we talked about in the last analysis, it’s not the first time that Dream tries to assert himself as his main source of information (callback to him negating having ever destroyed any of Tommy’s belongings). Also Fundy came to visit giving Tommy an efficiency II fortune I diamond axe (may I point out now how Fundy is literally the one person, aside from Dream and Ghostbur, visiting the most and how he is the only one aside from Ghostbur always saying “hi” whenever Tommy logs on? Their friendship is so underrated). 
“I’m going- I’m going crackers...” “Hi Tommy! I think- I think I saw Tubbo as well” “Dream was Tubbo here?” “I did not ever see Tubbo, but I don’t know, I haven’t seen him” (confirmation of what I said before)
“Dream, now that you showed up everyone started to visit me again!” “Well I think it’s just because the- well, to be fair, are they here with you right now? They’re just running around, like, I don’t think they are here visiting you, they’re just visiting Logstedshire” “Oh” (Dream enhancing Tommy’s feeling of loneliness)
“He [Tubbo] told me he missed you” “Really?” “Well-” “Yeah! I gave him a compass that pointed towards you at all times and he siad ‘I really miss him'“ “Really?” “Yeah” (...) “I thought I saw the compass in a chest, like he threw it in a chest in the Community House, but I’m not- maybe it was a different compass, I’m not sure”
Ghostbur was actually a great support during Tommy’s exile. From pointing out the holes in Dream’s rules, to trying and reassure and support Tommy when he is feeling down, often going directly against Dream’s narrative, even going as far as creating a physical connection between Tommy and Tubbo through the compasses. It’s no surprise then that Dream tried to get rid of him right after this stream. Tommy builds his first girlfrend, “hot girl”.
“Hey Tommy, don’t you worry, I’ll be at the beach party!” (Ghostbur said, like a liar...)
“Wilbur did you burn my hit novel?” “No!” “I heard you did” “No!” “Did you know that that was the only book in history that sold better then the Bible?” “No! No! No! Didn’t do it!” (Ghostbur said again, like a liar...)
“Wilbur we need a chest room” “No I don’t really need one, I just go to L’manburg” “Low blow ghost” (Ghost [derogatory])
“I’m sleep deprived” (we’re back into character after the 20 minutes of them bullying Brand)
“I have a gift for you Tommy” *gives Tommy iron helmet, chestplate and pants* “Armour? For me?” “Yeah” “Oh thank you, thank you!” “You’re welcome”
Remember this part because Dream will use this as a point against Tommy when destroying Logstedshire, just like Techno does later on. In case anyone was wondering: if you give something freely to someone as a gift you have literally no right to then hold it over their head at a later date. That’s just manipulative as shit. 
This neds with Phil, Dream and Tommy making a cake for the beach party and deciding on the last few details, and:
“We’re getting better everyone. We’re getting- are we- we’re getting better. I guess- I guess we’re bonding... *sigh* I guess...”
I’ll leave this off by reminding everyone that Dream and Tommy called Dream blowing up Tommy’s armour and weapons “bonding”.

verdict: i think lassie come home is still my fave of the movies so far, but this is gus and the first one are tied for second ;D
i am displeased that they made me so sad like only ten minutes in!!! lassiter maybe stuck with this as his new normal and he may not ever get his detecting skills back?? him STILL being forever away from the rest of them when clearly he should move up there to be with them?? ;P and then henry telling shawn that men’s friendships always grow apart when kids get involved; like DAMN, i don’t wanna hear that!!  they can still be next door neighbors forever!!! (and also all four of them are in love anyway soooo) and then later on with karen’s sadness!!
in other news: juliet shoving gus right off the couch to get to the baby was possibly my favorite moment of the entire thing hfkjdfkds
also shawn wanting to hold hands with lassie again ;D
ALSO shawn and juliet not wanting children! god i hope that sticks. not every damn relationship needs or wants kids!! i was so worried shawn would change his mind after helping with the birth but instead he was traumatized so that’s fun ;D they can be just as happy and fulfilled being fun aunts and uncles and godparents. plus that would totally fulfill juliet’s maybe-feeling-it’s-too-final...feelings. best of both worlds! spend time with the cute baby, then give it back! heh.
also i very much love that actress in the babysitters club but isn’t lily supposed to be SEVEN or so, not ELEVEN? ;P (i guess to be fair, so is her character on bsc)
selene’s ex was so grand! you know, until the end there. ;P loved no one ever telling poor gus her real name.
i fail at remembering more to comment on, so: THE MUSIC VIDEO OH MY GODDDD!! first of all, just the invite to be in it and then selene all NO VIDEO!!! ...WITHOUT ME!!!
(juliet, selene, and shawn looking all seductive together and at gus? sup newest ot4!!!!)
k when’s the 4th one happening

oh yeah since I have new peeps here is a rundown of myshe ra kiddos +finally adding some i never talked about. Ages are just to show gaps between kids, they are not "canon". Under the cut stuff. I uh....ramble
Glimmadora:
Harper-20, eldest daughter/child. Born Feb 1st. She/Her, Demi-Bi. Heir to Brightmoon, gets called 'AJ' (Adora Jr) a lot by Glimmer since she looks and acts a lot like Adora.

Has cream/purple wing markings on her back that later will turn into feathery cream wings with purple tips.
Sound based powers (cause my brain was like light and sound) but still can create light stuff they just make sounds also. Also can turn invisible. Being unable to control the powers as a toddler, she lost her hearing in her right ear. Everyone in the family knows sign language.
Smart af, witty, as the eldest of all the kids can be protective to a fault, anxious, wants to not fuck up and be a great queen. Will overwork herself and is a perfectionist, though can be forgetful. Is a great shoulder to lean on/be listened to.

Born with no magic and not connected to the moonstone (long story short in my au, First Ones cannot use magic without help or it will kill them. Mira got the most FO genes thus she cannot use magic. Whole ass idea i need to explore). Tries to make up for it with fighting skills. While she doesn't show it a lot, she hates the fact she is powerless and will not grow wings either.
Clever, rebellious, loves to explore. Can have a temper to her, wears her heart on her sleeve. Natural born leader. Butts heads with her mothers the most and has run away a few times (once for a very very long time heh). At the end of the day, she doesn't want to be in the shadow of anyone/wants to make her own mark.
Grows to 5'6", chubby build like Glimmer. Named to match the 'ra' in Adora's name and the 'Mi' in Micah's name. OG she was going to have healing powers before I got rid of that so it was also sort for Miracles. 'Mira' is a star, one that is an actual shooting star. Adora was the one to have her

Luka and Felix idk ages yet but are only a year apart in age. Luka means light (he is one of Catra's lights now) and Felix is a cartoon cat. Would become close friends with Mira later on
(im too lazy to proof lmao and free to ask questions or change stuff up lmao god)

I KNOW I AM LATE FOR THE PARTY AGAIN BUT!!!
I am so excited about this panel
AAAAAAAAAAAA
Man, I'm not a fan of anything similar to interviews but this one was just amaziiiing
SO SO SO
I have some thoughts, of course
contains spoilers about the panel (said Aunt 1 like everybody didn't see it hours ago)
At first, this magnificent gentleman ✨Karim✨
Tumblr media
We know that
he’s dubbed by Luc Roderique (like king Harrow)
he and Janai have speeches in the same time
This last point is fascinating!
It was mentioned when Aaron was showing spoilers without context
Tumblr media
(I love Justin's face on this screen, ngl)
Only this one card was colored in two different colors, so there were two different arcs going on (if I got it right). He even said “it’s, like, editing, cutting between the scenes”. I think that it could be a scene concentrated on contrast between two opposite opinions aND I AM SUPER EXCITED ABOUT IT, I LOVE CONTRAST. Ekhm. My guess it’s about making peace with humans or some Viren thing. I’ll focus on the first option, because 4th season Viren is still one big unknown. I don’t believe that after the very intense run of 3rd season’s final Sunfire elves will be so “hurray optimistic” (idk if this phrase exists in English, but it gets what I mean very well) about humans. Okay, they were fighting together just because a) their queen said so, b) they had to protect Dragon’s Queen. That doesn’t change the fact that humans killed their loved ones. My theory is that Karim’ll be a counterbalance to Janai, a new villain. Once again, what Aaron said about him? “This is a really, really intriguing and powerful character”. And maybe that’s just me, but he sounded like somebody talking about their favorite villain in “Loki type”. By “Loki type” I mean this specific group of villains/anti-villains who are changing sides very often, usually wins and manipulates all the time – absolute masterminds. My bet is – Karim is some nobility (he looks like one), who wants to dethrone Janai and maybe conquer Katolis which is obviously a mess after fast switching of rulers
Or maybe it's just one of this scenes in which characters are saying almost the same thing, who knows
I know that ppl are speculating that he's Janai's brother-- Even tho it's very possible I just don't feel it It seems, like, too obvious (Everybody seems so sure that he’s a prince that I kinda feel like I missed something while watching… honestly, it’s very possible)
Oh, he also could be one of the Guardians of the Great Gates. I don’t think tho. He doesn’t have any type of weapon (but he could be archerer – we could see a glove on only his right hand)
Do I even have to mention that I love his design?
That was the longest one, I promiseXD
To the next one – “moonshadow elf, creepy grave place… lantern lit”. I think that may be a part of flashback…? This could be honestly anything, but the description captures my imagination so hard that it doesn’t matter in which moment I’ll see this scene. At first, I thought it would be smth with Runaan or Laindrin, but then I saw somebody hoping it'll be about Aaravos (I'd say who, but I can't find it, fck) and now… His backstory with some moonshadow elves… How cool would it be!
Ehh, but I don't think that it'll be Aaravos' flashbacks, honestly
In my opinion, authors will just throw hints and avoid clear answers to the end of the final season in this matter
Third thought, this time seriously just blind guess. On the panel was said that we can expect short cameos of RPG's characters. Well, Sunfire elves were mentioned many times, so Sunfire siblings are possible. And Olanna who got full color recently? I'm not so happy with that XD. My fav is Easgann and I am faithfully keeping my fingers crossed for him
That's already too long, it's definitely time to end this madnessXDD
I hope that I throw literally anything new, heh
And remember, that's just blind theories
On another subject, are you watching the Olympics?

what is the point of that post about the reblog button?
hi! so let me take you on a journey down memory lane. back when i first started posting my gifs, i was in the gl*e fandom, so naturally they were getting a lot of notes cause the fandom was pretty big. on the other hand, my gifs then... were not good and yet they still exceeded that 1k or 2k notes mark. oh, i still remember the first time it happened to me, you have no idea how happy i was that my work was seen and it encouraged me to create more and more! that was the likes to reblog ratio on that groundbreaking for me gifset and on other ones i made back then (sorry it’s in polish but basically it’s likes/reblogs in that order)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
it was year 2012, so pretty much the golden age of tumblr. my dash was showing (+100) new posts all the time, it was impossible to scroll down to the previous day and well, you were flooded with content. it was like that up till 2015 for sure, that’s when i left tumblr for 2 years only to come back briefly for skam og’s 4th season but even during that time people still were reblogging quite a lot. then i left tumblr again for 2 years and at first when skamfr resurrected me i didn’t understand what people were talking about. there were posts floating around asking people to reblog? i thought everyone was just exaggerating, cause for me reblogging was always what tumblr was about - a way to share other people’s content. i didn’t get that at all. that was until i started posting my gifs again, and well. now i can see what those posts were about:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and while yes, likes give notes too they don’t give one thing - exposure. it doesn’t move the post forward, doesn’t make it accessible to more people. the post gets appreciated and i’m thankful for that, but it lets it stay on my blog. someone here once said, that liking posts is consuming the content while reblogging is sharing it, and i agree with that. in my opinion, if we don’t want fandoms to die out we need to keep them alive and the way to do that is to reblog stuff. i know, we may argue it’s like that for me only cause maybe my gifs suck (which i wouldn’t object to heh) and i should just stick to making them out of pure enjoyment i get from it (cause i love making gifs, it’s so satisfying for me) the other thing i also adore is seeing people enjoy my content. i guess, what i’m trying to say with this post is: no one is pressuring or guilt tripping you into reblogging, but... i always saw fandom as a whole where everybody has their role. there are people good with words writing posts, others don’t talk much but make art/gifs/edits while some just like/reblog and move the posts forward. and each one of these roles is equally important. when one of them is missing then it all starts collapsing. this post got too long and i guess i’m gonna finish it now but what i’m trying to say is... please reconsider reblogging again. it worked in the past it would work now too. creativity spreads from one person to another, encouraging them to also create on their own. and i think we, as a fandom, could only benefit from that.

IkeSen JP’s 4th anniversary countdown (day 8-14)
Tumblr media
In 8 days - Yukimura Soon it will be four years since I met you. If I remember correctly … in eight day’s time?
So many things have happened this past year. To be honest, I feel like whenever we’re together, we fight … but for one day, we tried to be a married couple. 
Another time, we had a fight when there was a guy trying to approach you…. You were very upset (with me), but if it was the other way round, you would be jealous right. 
But now, those have become good memories.  I am able to confirm again that I’m ready to be married with you for the rest of our lives. 
For us who were like mutual enemies from the start, to be together now, it’s certainly a miracle. Therefore, we won’t fight/quarrel today … Now, come here.  In 9 days - Shingen
In 9 days’ time, it’ll be four years since I met my goddess. 
Time is so strange. It’s so pleasant/enjoyable to be with you that it feels as if time passed by in an instant. 
Come to think of it, the little hut that we made for Koro together, I have seen Koro sleeping in it a lot lately. 
To make the most of your talented sewing skill, I have made a shelf (of happiness) for you. You seem to be using it with care/appreciation until now. 
… Yuuki, you have changed the meaning of craftsmanship for me. Now, it’s not just because I want to leave behind my life’s legacy, I want to leave behind the legacy of our lives together. 
My goddess is such a wonderful woman. From now on ... I vow that I will love you more than anyone.  In 10 days - Kenshin
In 10 days’ time, it will be 4 years since I met you. 
When I think back on how we fell in love with each other, so much has passed.
I went to the cell where I locked you up before we fell in love that summer, because you said you wanted to see the furniture that I had sent you at that time … 
Before, when I saw you smiling, waiting for me inside that cell, I fell in love.
Now, my feelings are different. When I think of you now, my heart only feels very calm, gentle and pleasant feelings.
From now on, don’t ever leave my side … I love you.
In 11 days - Sasuke
Yuuki, (from the ceiling) may I come in? 
I have an important news today. In 11 day’s time, it will be four years since I met you. 
This year … we have finally become lovers, it’s a year that I can never forget.
We had our first Christmas since we became lovers, it was really fun. … That kaleidoscope, thank you for keeping it with great care. I want you to remember me every time you look at it. Whenever we’re apart (cannot meet each other), I’m always thinking of you. 
Our Sengoku life as lovers has just started. Let’s have a wonderful time together. 
In 12 days - Kennyo
… In 12 days’ time, it will be four years since I met you, Miss. 
Do you remember that year? During the festival that you call “Christmas”, in the bustling town, you saw me and followed me. 
I was touched by your pure heart, and my heart softened somehow, Miss. But for someone with a revenge demon inside like me, it's not suitable to be touched by your pure heart. 
When I'm with you, I feel a strange and warm feelings…. I wonder why. 
Oh, you must come back before sun sets. Thank you for coming to see me today. 
In 13 days - Ranmaru
We will have a grand celebration with everybody right? I’m really looking forward to it! 
Ah, nevertheless, I like being with you on the veranda, just the two of us eating sweet buns like that time. … 
Eh? Yuuki-sama, your face is bright red? Sooo cute. … Fufu, I’m sorry. Please don’t be angry at me. 
Even so, I mean it when I say I like being alone with you. Yuuki-sama is popular so there are always people interfering. 
From now on, let me stay by your side a lot more okay! Promise?
In 14 days - Motonari
In 14 days, there will be a big festival. I’m thinking what kind of festival it will be. 
I was surprised to meet the princess at a back alley. Come to think of it, you’re a seamstress right. If you want to make a deal/business with me, you can tell me anytime. 
Hmm….? What are you scheming/planning, I wonder. 
Well … if you don’t want to make a deal, I will still get information about you and the Oda army heh. There are so many ways to do it. 
I will be waiting, Yuuki.

Day 35 on Tiny Haven
I hope you’re sitting, because today is full of Big Surprises!
The first of which is Nature Day, an obviously ecological celebration which promises to make me very happy.
Tumblr media
(1) Animal Crossing has a very loose definition of “day”.
And Nature Day brings the second big surprise of the day to the town square...
Tumblr media
(2) A flower seller!!!
I cram my pockets full of roses, cosmos and various flower bushes and spend most of my free time that day planting flowers all over my island.
Note on Racine, they are remarkably creepier at night than they were during the day.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(3) Okay... I... will go now...
When I visit Thibou, he also has something new to tell me (so much excitement in one day!). Apparently, the museum is now ready to exhibit works of art. 
Tumblr media
(4) That owl has got the best expressions.
I have no idea where I’m supposed to find any (I’m assuming he’s not talking about my crappy attempts at pixel art), but I like the concept!
After learning to smile the other day, I learn to laugh, so that next time Raymond says something preposterous I can properly react.
Tumblr media
(5)
(that is a lie. You can’t emote during dialogues, and NPCs tend to turn away from me the second they’re done talking, so I’m usually left standing alone emoting like an idiot while they’re already halfway across the screen)
Think I’m done with the surprises? Think again!
Every time I’ve gone to the clothing shop, I’ve tried to talk to the brown hedgehog, the one busy working at her sewing machine in the back. She’d never even looked up from her work, dismissing me with curt sentences about how busy she was.
Today, when I stop to say hi...
Tumblr media
(6)
She answers. 😯
Tumblr media
(7) Even her sister is flabbergasted.
Tumblr media
(8) She’s got a reputation to uphold.
That’s all she will tell me for now, but I am Floored. Just goes to show I’m right to be stubborn!
Every day I stop by the demon dog’s kernel to say hi. Maybe one day he’ll actually come out and turn out to be a poodle! 🐩
In the evening, I do my rounds, and Lili has got a burning question to ask me.
Do I still like badminton the most?
Tumblr media
(9)
Tumblr media
(10)
Tumblr media
(11) Anxiously second-guessing yourself over the most inane stuff? Come into my arms, my kindred!!
I will finish this thrilling day with a note-to-self for myself:
Tumblr media
Make yourself a bee room one day, get a bee costume, and finally live your best life. 🐝
Subtitles
(1) The activities linked to this day will last until the 4th of May. Have a nice day, and long live ecology!
(2) With pleasure. Let me show you the seeds and saplings I've brought!
(3) Yeah, I know the feeling... You know when you start pulling at them, but you don't know when you'll stop. Heh heh...
(4) I'm therefore considering adding works of art to our modest establishment's remarkable collection.
(5) You've learned how to laugh! They say it's the best remedy!
(6) Anyway, my name's Cousette. T'was about time I introduced myself, no?
(7) I think that's the first time I’ve heard you call a customer by their name!
(8) Shh, Layette! You're not making this easy for me!
(9) Phew! See, I told Renée that your thing's badminton.
(10) But then later I suddenly started doubting myself, like...
(11) "What if Maddy changed her mind without telling anyone?"

His Amazing Fantasies (A MCU origin story)
Chapter 1
Like costume superheroes? Confidentially, sometimes we in the comic mag business refer to them as "weirdos in tights," or "long underwear characters." However, not all heroes run around in their underoos. Some of them go out fighting crime while donning a shiny suit of armor, or just their average, comfy civvies. You've seen them all: Big, glamorous, bold figures in their adult years, handling adult responsibilities like it's no problem. And, as you know, they're about a dime a dozen! But, we think you may find our Spider-Man just a bit... ...different.
............................
[*December 4th, 2015*]
"Keep crying, little virgin!"
That was the roar of Carl King, the most toughest and feared kid in the 8th grade, and possibly the whole middle school. Although his body wasn't well-shaped, this boy collected the strength of a level one boxing champion. He could have any girl he ever wanted. He could have any friend he wanted. Carl was dominant of the school grounds. Lord have mercy for whatever crook who tries to cross his path. Oh, but the story isn't about him, nor is he the protagonist of our tale. This is really the tale of a boy named Peter Parker.
Wimpy, weak, short, geeky, scrawny, doormat, glasses-wearing Peter Parker. The one who didn't know how to make himself friends, and isn't the most masculine fella you've ever seen. Right now at this moment, he is tied to a goal post, shedding tears of pain, while Carl flung footballs straight at him. His backup men were laughing out of amusement. One was recording the show on his phone, without regarding how poor Peter would feel. While putting him through this pain ride, they'd laugh at him, taunt, and even bring his uncle into it. Carl had a knack for tormenting the weak, pint-sized, girly men for his own pleasure. Of all boys he's taken a crack at, he was Peter Parker's "biggest fan."
That's not all he's done to Puny Parker. He'd take food off of his tray whenever he was still hungry. Him and the gang would steal his clothes before he gets out of the gym shower, just for laughs. He would give Peter a beating for failing to help him ace a grade he's been aiming for. His torture towards Peter wasn't just physical, but emotional as well. He degrades Peter for being non-masculine, being a Star Wars nerd, respecting minorities, and having an uncle that looks like "the guy from Sea Biscuit and Great Gatsby." He laughs, and the school laughs with him. Peter restraints himself from fighting back. He knows he'd never stand a chance. The principal has done nothing to stop this because of the old slogan, "boys will be boys."
Nobody wants to take a walk in Peter's shoes. He was not the best at conversation starters. He had trouble talking to girls, or any gender for that matter. Boys would throw insults at him, including some inappropriate slurs. He wasn't a favorite to just about almost everyone in the 8th grade, due to being too smart for his own good. Peter never had any friends. Not because other teenagers can be unwittingly so cruel to the young man, but because Peter is too timid to jump at that chance. Poor boy lacked the confidence. Well, he had an online friend named "Harry Osborn." If only he could hear from him again after a year.
"Sally... Hey. Ya know, there's this new Star Wars film out-" "Oh my god, Parker, are you trying to ask me on a date? This better not be a date! I don't wanna be seen anywhere with you!" "Uhhhhh... No. I was just letting you know that there's this new Star Wars film out, called the Force Awakens. It received quite positive." "And you think I would be interested in some nerdy little kids movie because...?" "I'll-I'll leave now. Sorry for troubling you. (And it’s not just for kids)"
The kids all giggle as you walk by They're making faces, they catch your eye You ignore the things they do Hide the pain you're going through You're hiding well You're hiding well
No ones got a crush on Peter No one wants him on their team Kids can be cruel, when the kid isn't cool No ones got a crush on Peter No ones got a crush on Peter
............................
After a hard day of school, he finds himself some relief when he gets home. The caring presence of his Uncle and Aunt. As soon as he walked in through that door, he was greeted by a friendly tackle, followed by a noogie, from none other than Uncle Ben himself. It was one of his most loving greetings during every Friday, since that is the day of his day off. Ben just can't wait to see his favorite nephew again.
"How was school for you, old champ?" "Not this again. Doing fine as always, Uncle Ben! Now let go!" "Ohhhhhh, you can do better than that, Pete-O!" "Aunt May!"
Boy, have they been good to him. When his parents had died, just about the time he was too young to remember what they looked like, Ben and May took him in and did whatever they could to be the caring family every child deserves. They made sure he was happy, and they also made sure he wasn't spoiled. Though they didn't have that much money, they sacrificed everything to get Peter where he is now. He was smart then, and he's much smarter today. It'll only be a matter of time when he passes the exam that will enroll him into Midtown High, a school for intellectuals like him. Ben and May gave him company when he needed it. They comforted him whenever he was feeling down. They treated him like he was valid, no matter what other kids thought of him.
After shaking off the shenanigans back there, Peter went up to his bedroom to put away his school things. In his room, there were posters of the Avengers, merchandise, and he even kept the old ridiculous toy helmet he wore when he was nine. Peter had his first encounter with Ironman when he was wearing that helmet, and he kept it ever since. He sat down on his bed, and looked through the news on his phone, just to find any current events happening with the lovable hero alliance. He admired them so much. In fact, he wanted to be just like them. It was a dream he had since he was very young, and it still sticks to him to this day.
He didn't want to be a big, broke loser anymore. Not some guy who just lets everybody walk all over him, forced to take a punch from Carl every day. No, he wanted to be out there standing in the spotlight. He wanted to be a part of something big. It wasn't the whole heroics that interested him, but the fame, the popularity, and the powers. Anyone who's ever made fun of him would bow before him. If he possessed strength greater than the Hulk, Carl would think twice before coming at the nerd. Imagine flying through the air, lots of sight to see, with the wind in your face. Or he doesn't have to have powers. He could be a high tech inventor like Tony Stark, and possibly equip his own suit of armor, with plenty of weapons. He'd wear it everywhere. Working with the Avengers meant big money, all for the taking. he could repay his aunt and uncle for sacrificing everything they did to get him started.
Unfortunately, for young Peter, those will always be dreams. It would take some miracle to join the Avengers. Or at least be gifted with a special talent that would get him in. He can't turn into a jolly green giant, conjure up voodoo spells, or wield a shield. Worst, him and his family need the money more badly than you think. Both May and Ben are working part time jobs. He hardly sees them anymore. They don't spend time together like they used to. They're making the most of it, never having time for themselves. They deserve better than that. If he can't be an Avenger, he could always work for Tony Stark, if that'll ever be possible. The job would pay well, and he'd still get some recognition. He'd give his soul just to have a short conversation with Mr. Stark.
"Peter, dinner's ready! I know you'd never wanna miss out on Friday takeout night!" "Heh. What's on the menu?" "Hope you're craving Filipino barbecue!" "(Actually, I was craving pizza.) Be there in a sec, Uncle Ben!"
Square boy You gotta get cool, get cool Square boy You gotta get cool Square boy You gotta get cool, get cool Square boy You gotta get cool
Peter was a boy An average, all American, US male Mindin' his own business in this crazy world But the world wouldn't leave well enough alone Alone, alone, alone
He had some problems with the girls He didn't quiet know how to strike up a conversation No, he couldn't communicate with the feminination Oh, it's a nation you could say he was an egghead
...........................
[*August 5th*]
7:25 am on a Saturday, and Peter was already up. After one quick trip to the bathroom, he then followed the sweet aroma down the hall. Aunt May was making her famous wheatcakes, while Uncle Ben helped set the table. Peter and May then had their first conversation of the day.
"Wheatcakes? Don't you usually make those for a special occasion?" "Well, it's a special occasion today!" "It's no holiday, and none of our birthdays... Oh! One of you got promoted!" "Not even close." "Someone died!" "Peter!" "Someone you hate, I mean." "Why don't you just sit down, enjoy your breakfast, and then the answer will be handed to you on a silver platter."
As Peter sat down, Aunt May planted a slight peck on his cheek, then placed his breakfast down in front of him. Ben poured the orange juice for his nephew. Peter drizzled some maple syrup all over his hotcakes, then dug right in. For a whole 4 minutes, everyone just ate in silence. Some occasion this is turning out to be. Uncle Ben then handed him a bunch of napkins, telling him he had syrup on his face. As Peter grabbed the napkins, there was something hidden within. It was a brochure for The Museum Of Atomic Science.
"This is-!!" "That's right. I thought we'd have the chance to spend time together in a long time. Besides, it might help your young mind stay inspired. My young nephew deserves best." "This is so cool, Uncle Ben! But this looks rather expensive. How were you able to afford it?" "Eh, I decided to take up full time on my shift." "Full time?" "You mustn't worry so much, boy. It's all for educational purposes, right?" "Yes. I guess your right. Thank you, Uncle Ben. Thank you so much."
The two then hugged it out. Full time? That means Peter will see less of his uncle now. He really wish he would just stop doing this. He doesn't have to do all of this.
"Care to join us, May?" "Oh, I wish I could, honey, but I have to leave for work in about two hours. You boys go ahead, have your fun." "Hahaha. C'mon, if you didn't wanna go, you could have just said so." "Hey! What makes you think I wouldn't wanna go? It sounds like an interesting event! With all the... ....technology, and sciencey stuff." "Yeah, yeah. We'll give your best regards to the atom smashers."
After Peter finished his breakfast real quick, he immediately rushed to the bathroom, showered, groomed himself, and then put on a fresh set of clothes, along with his favorite science-themed t-shirt. It wasn't just the thrill of visiting the museum that made Peter excited, but also spending time with his only father figure every once and awhile. Speaking of father figure, it took Ben about 40 minutes to get ready. After he was done, the two got into the car together. Ben started the engine and they were off.
Peter looked out the window throughout most of the drive. Geez, the crime wave in New York sure is getting worse. Muggers, robbers, carjackers, and the cops are barely lifting a finger to stop this. Aside from the criminal activity, he also caught glimpse of Carl tormenting a local 8th grader, forcing him to eat garbage. Now looking away from the window, Peter changed the radio to the news station, just to hear if there's anything going on with the mighty Avengers recently. After a 23 minute drive, they eventually made it. Peter stepped out with a huge smile upon his face. But, forgetting to watch were he's going, he accidentally bumped into someone.
"Watch it, you skinny little twink!" "Sorry! I'm terribly sorry, man! This is all on me!" "Hell yeah, it is! And what were you even smiling about, little boy? Huh?" "I was just excited to go-"
The fight was then broken up as someone called the angry kid's name.
"Flash, stop trying to pick a fight with random kids!"
The angry teen then took his leave, and giving Peter the bird afterwards. Boy, New Yorkers sure are mean. When Uncle Ben asked if he knew that guy, Peter said he don't, but he hopes he doesn't run into him again. Peter decided to just shrug off that commotion and move on. Pretty soon, they entered the museum together. It was a lot bigger inside than the young boy expected, and the air was fresh too. So many inventions to look at, so little time. To the small ones, to the really big ones. To the old, ancient ones, to the new ones. Some were rare prototypes, and some were just non-working replicas. Peter took out his phone, and began snapping pics on whatever invention he came across, including the cafe and gift shop. He even took himself in the photos with them. Photography was one of his hidden depths. While looking at every displayed machinery, Peter would educate his uncle with trivial facts.
Uncle Ben suggested they dine out at the museum's cafe, but before Peter was ready to, he wanted to check out one last invention first. It was an old radioactive ray from 1962, sponsored by General Techronics Corporations, a company that faded away by the early 1980s, courtesy to Stark Industries. As cheesy and simple as it looked, it was groundbreaking for its time. The machine had been turned on, showing off its beam of radioactivity. Peter seemed to be one of the only people interested in it. People sure are loosing respect to history. Despite how old the ray was, it was still working, and still safe enough for spectators to observe up close. The radiation was too weak to harm any human being. Peter took out his phone and positioned it for a photo.
Elsewhere, a lone spider was crawling her way on the floor of the staff's lounge room. She then squeezed her way into the air vent, but unaware of the heating system activated, her light body got carried away in the warm breeze, bumping into the walls a few times on her trip. She got blown out of the other vent, the one behind the old radioactive ray Peter was taking pictures of, and flew straight into the beam. Set in slow motion, the eight legged arachnid began to struggle as her tiny body absorbed the beam's radioactivity. After that, she made a safe landing on Peter Parker's shoulder, without him noticing. She started to crawl her way down. Finished taking the last photo, he put away the phone in his pocket, ready to join his uncle for a coffee. Then suddenly...
"OW! Son of a-!"
Peter felt a hot sting on his hand. Panicking, he swiped it off. It was just a spider. A little spider. Although that bite felt like it belonged to a tarantula. Peter set his eyes on it a little longer as he watched it fall onto its back, and then die. She wasn't dying from hitting the ground, she was dying from all the radioactivity her small body sucked in. Peter stopped looking at the arachnid as he heard his uncle call him. He walked towards the direction of the cafe, and when he looked back at the spider, he could've sworn he saw it glow. Peter snapped out of it as a random spectator accidentally stepped on its carcass.
A few minutes later, as the uncle and his nephew were waiting for their orders, Peter was feeling a little ill. His blood felt like it was getting hotter, his head ached, and his stomach was churning. He tried to act as though he was okay, to prevent this family outing from cutting short. Peter thought back at that spider for awhile. Despite its size, that bite had so much pressure to it. It was like getting impaled by a flu shot. And its body... Why was it glowing like that, specially while it was dead? Could this be a new, undiscovered feature of arachnids? Is this spider poisonous? Is he gonna die? No, he thought, I can't die! There's so much in this world he hasn't accomplished yet. Like becoming a scientist, meeting the mighty Avengers, or spending the time he wanted with his whole family. Peter swears he's going to check this in with a doctor eventually.
Their orders soon arrived to the table. Uncle Ben order the club sandwich with an iced coffee, while Peter just had some plain water. Ben looked at him awkwardly for it. To excuse his illness, Peter told Uncle Ben he's trying to watch his "athlete figure," although Ben tried to convince him that he's skinny enough. However, one sip of water was enough to push his queasiness at its limit. Peter sealed his mouth shut, heading to the nearest bathroom. Some of it couldn't stay in his mouth, and leaked through his hand. Unfortunately, Peter couldn't find the men's room, nor could he even make it, so, to his greatest embarrassment yet, he spilled the contents of his stomach onto the neatly polished floor, in front of all those spectators.
The two had to leave the museum, even before they could buy a souvenir. Not because Peter was feeling sick, but because they got kicked out for messying up the floor. Uncle Ben wasn't mad or upset at all. How could he be mad at his favorite nephew?
"Why didn't you tell me you were sick, Peter?" "I wasn't sick. I mean, I was feeling fine before, and now I'm not. I don't know how it happened. It was just so sudden, I swear." "It could be a stomach bug, or a little too much excitement. I remember the time your aunt got queasy when I first proposed to her at Cony Island. She appeared to be a little too happy. Heh heh. Or maybe it was from having five funnel cakes after riding the roller coaster."
Peter would laugh if he wasn't feeling so damned sick.
"I'm so sorry our trip was cut short." "No need to apologize! Things happen when we least expect it! It was all fun while it lasted. We could probably do this again some other time. ...if they're ever ready to forgive us for that accident."
Peter wasn't ready to tell Uncle Ben the real cause of his illness. These symptoms have all the traces of a certain glowing spider. If he told him, he would have worried him. He doesn't want Ben to fear his only nephew dying. Maybe this flu is only temporary. All he needs is a good rest, and maybe some hot fluids. If it lasts longer, now would be the time to visit a doctor.
Night falls out! Takes my hand Sleeping costs, but this brain seems to work overtime Yes, this brain seems to work overtime And with sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep Comes the awesome dreeeeeeeeeeeeeam

My life is a fanfic
So, my reblog earlier about how my wife and I are the slow burn relationahip that got married trope got us talking, and she encouraged me to tell the story in more detail.
We met in a college mythology course. We met several other people as well, some of which we are still frienda with, some of which we drifted away from, some of which we dropped without ceremony. We actually both dated the same guy from that group at different times.
We drifted for *years,* running into each other in passing, always friendly, always able to connect like there was no time missed. But never relationship vibes.
Enter: the sweetest, dumbest cat I ever rescued.
I was at a low point of my life and trying to recover from several traumatic blows that happened in rapid succession. Like, 'ready to drop out of college and check myself in to the hospital' low. I went on a walk to clear my head and returned to several frantic voicemails from a different group of friends about a cat they found.
They knew I was doing animal rescue and didn't want to take it to the shelter. I decided I could use a pet project (heh) to keep myself out of my own head.
They brought me a senior siamese cat with no teeth who looked like she had swallowed a bowling ball. It took a week for this poor cat to come out from under my bed.
I was searching for a home for this cat and while she was sweet, she was...dumb. nothing neurological or anything. She would just up and do things like fall on her face because she forgot how to sit. The vet said this poor cat was the dumbest animal they had seen in their 30 years of business. She needed a patient adopter who knew how loud Siamese cats can get.
Enter my wife's family.
They adopt the cat and the cat fits in perfectly.
A side effect: this one-time classmate is suddenly coming over every day after work/class to just chill.
We also got into some fun adventures over the proceeding few months. Her roommate at the time was a fetish model, and I helped act as her body guard during a work event that was open to the public. We went on a week-long beach vacation and the B&B only had one bed.
At one point she flew halfway across the world for a wedding. We shared our first kiss right before she left. Like, she was driving to the airport and was already running late level of right before she left. She had no reception and had to really search to make phone calls, so we didn't really talk for two weeks. This was August.
Our next kiss wasn't for another several months.
You may think our next kiss would have been Halloween night when we stripped naked and ran around the local haunted mill with a friend, but no. We ran back to the car and got the hell out of there.
You may think that, a few months after that, as we were shopping for holiday gifts on Thanksgiving weekend for our friends and a long, drawn-out joke that ended in me suggesting we date and she said sure, but no. That wasn't even when we realized we were dating.
It was an accidental brief brushing of our lips in Wal-Mart when she went to playfully kiss my cheek at the same time I noticed the pumpkin spice bagels and turned my head to stare at them. We both pretend like it didn't happen for months.
The next intentional kiss was almost a year after our trip to the beach. Even then, we were in. this weird, grey, "I don't know if this is a relationship or we're just good pals" phase. This was in April.
You may think it was when she picked me up from the airport when I came back from a cruise after getting dozens of "I miss you" texts while I had my phone off to avoid international roaming charges, and you would be wrong. I had decides to sleep on a screen porch in a thunderstorm on the last day of the cruise. I had never felt more alive, but I was beyond sleep-deprived. I drank several cups of coffee, bought more incense than reasonable at the local metaphysical shop, and passed out when we got back to the car.
It was a week or so after that, because we felt like it.
Queue a few more months of obliviousness and lack of willingness to commit to our own feelings.
One of our close friend's father committed suicide that October. I was the first person to come help the family. A different friend stayed with them for a week. I went over as much as I could. After the funeral, said friend and I came back to my house and just held each other and cried. We talked about how helpless we felt and how much we wanted something to take our minds off everything. As consenting adults, we could both see where this was headed.
And I just...stopped. It was in the middle of mourning I realized I was in love with my now-wife, and distraction sex wasn't going to help me in any direction.
Anxiety brain explained all of this out loud before I could stop myself. My friend was happy for me, thankfully, and shortly thereafter realized she was in love with the woman in her life ahe had the same type of relationship I had with my now-wife.
(They also got married in the end.)
We dated for five years before I wound up proposing to her over a Buzzfeed quiz result. On Valentine's Day. We had dinosaur chicken nuggets for dinner. Yes, really. I'd picked out the ring the previous November and was waiting for the right moment.
We got married in our front yard. My favorite uncle got ordained to marry us. My parents, who divorced on bad terms, were cordial and got on like friends. My sister brought her little dog, who almost stole the show. We wrote our own vows and cooked all the food and handled all the decorations ourselves.
(Side note: two days before the wedding our then-roommate came home to find me almost asleep over an indoor grill.)
Less than a month later we flew across the country so she could meet the rest of my family. I wanted so badly for her to fall in love with the Pacific Northwest, and she did. She told me so on the 4th of July while a bunch of young children lit barely-legal fireworks on the top of an empty oil drum. I felt two parts of my heart merging to the sound of the miniature rockets igniting.
We moved two weeks after we got home, fearing our roommate's sudden mood changes and aggression. We left with an air mattress, our two cats, some clothes, and some absolutely irreplaceable posessions. We did wind up getting most of our stuff back, but there were two weeks where all we had was each other and the cats. We ate on paper plates and washed the same two cups over and over. My mother bought us two oversized bean bag chairs so we didn't have to sit on the floor.
We told stories until we fell asleep every night.
About six months after our wedding, the whole "I married my best friend" thing hit for real. It was wonderful but overwhelming.
It's been a little over two years since we've gotten married, and we've definitely ticked several other trope boxes: loving through crisis, chronic illness, death in the family, family disownment and developing a chosen family, unemployment, to name a few.
I guess the ultimate point here is your life is a hell of a story, but underatanding what type it is isn't something you can understand while you're going through it.
And no matter how impossible it seems, sometimes all it takes to get your life on the best possible track is a vet-certified Really Dumb Cat.

► Name ➔ “Ahru Hiraeth.” ► Are you single ➔ “Ah... aha... that’s.” She shuts her eyes a moment and shakes her head. “Let’s just say yes.” ► Are you happy ➔ “All things considered? I’d say I’m in a better mood than I ought to be.” ► Are you angry? ➔ “Aheh, hmm, no. Not yet.” ► Are your parents still married ➔ "Puh, were they ever? The concept of marriage is a little different in my tribe, but he’s been gone so long... And by common Eorzean standards, you could say mother ‘remarried’... So the short answer is ‘no’, the long answer... much more convoluted.”
Tumblr media
NINE FACTS
► Birth Place ➔ “Hyr’asra, our village in a place called Fier’vanha.” She waves a hand dismissively. “Easier if you just think of it as a place deep in the Shroud.” ► Hair Color ➔ “Er, recently very white.” She twirls a finger through the strands, pulling them in front of her face a little. “Bit of the blond’s still there, who knows if it’ll come back in full one day.” ► Eye Color ➔  “Naturally blue.” She tucks the hair back once more before her fingers idle over the eyepatch concealing her right eye. “An... incident caused this one to... change, you could say. I’d have lost it completely if not for the favor of a friend. It’s gold, like his are, but to be honest, I’m not entirely used to seeing it when I look in the mirror. Or comfortable with it...” ► Birthday ➔ “The 21st sun of the 4th astral moon,” she answers listlessly. ► Mood ➔ Her face twists a little, and despite her relative calm she answers; “Restless.” ► Gender ➔ “Female.” ► Summer or winter ➔ “Well that depends on where you are, but if it’s more a question of a hot season versus a cold one, I’ve always preferred the cold.” Her expression is wistful, but with the hint of an excitable spark in her eye. “Thanalan grew on me, but I always feel energized the moment the chill hits me.” ► Morning or afternoon ➔ “Mornings are lovely, I feel better when I’m up early and moving around. Afternoons feel like guilt and regret.” She offers a small laugh and shrug. “That sounds really depressing, doesn’t it? I just mean if I sleep too long is all.”

EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE
► Are you in love ➔ “...Could be.” ► Do you believe in love at first sight ➔ “Heh... Maybe? I seem to be more of a romantic at heart than I realized. Or allowed myself to be, rather. I’ll let you know when I’ve figured it out, but I do know I at least believe in attraction at first sight.” ► Who ended your last relationship ➔ “Uh... hm. I think they were usually fairly mutual, in some form or another... The last one though?” Her brow furrows. “ Ah, I suppose... it was him.” ► Are you afraid of commitments ➔ “Oh man, apparently so. Though, I dunno, maybe less a fear of the commitment as a fear of the vulnerability that commitment invites.” ► Have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ While her expression had eased some, it darkens once more. “...Yes.” ► Have you ever had a secret admirer ➔ “Er...do... people who’ve wanted to use my body for dark cultish purposes count? To be fair, they seemed quite admiring, and were very good at keeping it a secret... Otherwise, I couldn’t say.” ► Have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ “Hah, too many times now. You’d think a girl would learn.”
Tumblr media
SIX CHOICES
► Love or lust ➔ “Unfortunately, a girl does not learn. Love.” ► Lemonade or iced tea ➔ Her nose scrunches up a little. “Neither, but tea with some fruit if I must.” ► Cats or Dogs ➔ As if suddenly thrown into some deep internal debate, her lips tighten into a thin line. The answer comes haltingly, pried between clenched teeth. “Ca-...dog-...ats?” She stares hard, not budging on this answer. ► A few best friends or many regular friends ➔ “I’m blessed with both, I think. Though... I don’t think of my ‘many regular friends’ as being particularly less dear to me than my ‘few best friends’.” ► Wild night out or romantic night in ➔ “I’ve... somewhat tired of wild nights out. They’re fun, on occasion. But I’d prefer a quiet night in these days.” With a huff she shakes her head and chuckles. “I really am getting old.” ► Day or night ➔ “Hm... That’s tricky. I like taking care of business during the day, but I prefer the night to have to myself and relax. Though, seeing as that’s rarely what actually happens... I suppose the day.”
Tumblr media
FIVE HAVE YOU EVERS
► Been caught sneaking out ➔ Laughing outright she nods. “Oh, yes, definitely.” ► Fallen down/up the stairs ➔ She stifles her laugh into a small snort. “I was helping Yulania move into her quarters, carrying things up and down. There was admittedly some drinking involved, and I was quoted as quite brightly saying, ‘It’s so much easier going down.’ mere seconds before my feet went out from under me and I slid on my ass the rest of the descent.” ► Wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ The light and mirth from recounting previous memories dims, despite the light-hearted grin remaining - a ghost of itself. ”Hasn’t everyone?”  ► Wanted to disappear ➔ “That... would be easier. I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t considered it, but I’m unreasonably stubborn, or so I’m told.”
Tumblr media
FOUR PREFERENCES
► Smile or eyes ➔ “Eyes.” ► Shorter or Taller ➔ “Mmn, taller.” ► Intelligence or Attraction ➔ “Intelligence can beget attraction, but a lack of intellect can utterly demolish a shallow interest.” ► Hook-up or Relationship ➔ Elbow propped on the table she gives a quiet sigh and buries her face in her palm. “As if it were that simple. A relationship, yes, would be ideal, but realistic? Less so. Not for me. And don’t give me that look I’m not trying to sound melodramatic here.”
Tumblr media
FAMILY
► Do you and your family get along ➔ “By the skin of our teeth.” Then her ears perk up a little and she smiles. “Oh, but my brother and I have always gotten along pretty well. And... my sister... she’s a good kid. So I don’t really have any trouble with her. My parents are the issue.” ► Would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ “I’ll... let others be the judge of that. It’s not over yet.” ► Have you ever ran away from home ➔ “Essentially.” ► Have you ever gotten kicked out ➔ “Technically I think the two things rather coincided. If you hadn’t gathered already, family life was complicated.”
Tumblr media
FRIENDS
► Do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ The answer is immediate and unfaltering. “Nero.” ► Do you consider all of your friends good friends ➔ “Yes.” She gives a small smile with the answer - a moment passes. Finally she groans and rolls her eyes. “Yes, even Nero has his good points. Minuscule though they may be.” ► Who is your best friend ➔ “Just one? People shouldn’t limit themselves with that kind of thinking. Thancred, Alphy and Ali, Yul and Regi... They’re all irreplaceably dear to me. No two people are precisely the same, and each relationship different by the same token.” ► Who knows everything about you ➔ “Er... Probably Thancred,” then she laughs and shrugs. “Well, he’s good at keeping things to himself though, so I guess that’s nothing to be concerned over.”

“How are you feeling,dear?”
“I’m okay..”
“Any different?”
“No..”
“Do you want to tell me anything that will help you feel any better?”
“Uhm..I guess..I like spending time with Navid,he’s completelly different to talk to,did you know he’s a Jesuit?”
“I did not.But tell me my dear,do you remember what happened last night..?”
“Last night?”
“In your room..I heard you screaming..oh-um more like uh..crying in agony,if I may..”
I saw her looking anywhere but me,her hands turn to fists,her foot tapping the floor nervously.
“It’s okay..you can tell me,darling.”
“Vincent..they hurt him..”
“..Who..?”
“Everyone..they hurt him,I couldn’t let them..”
“What did they do..?”
“They scream at him,say he’s crazy,worthless,he’s not Thomas,he’s not!”
She started crying again,and for the first time in my life I really had no idea what to do,so I just hugged her,let her cry,it’s the only thing I can do,for now.
“He’s the best man I’ve ever met..why do people fear what they don’t understand?”
It was the 4th time she lost her time trail in 2 weeks,each time grows sadder,darker and worse than the last.We examined her brain,to see if there is something in there..a tumor,a hematoma or anything that could explain it,but nothing..her brain looks fine.
I wonder if she has some kind of schizophrenia,she sees things that don’t exist..she doesn’t show any homicidal activities but suicidal..She started eating her paint two days ago..not a big ammount to kill her but still she has problems with her stomach,we will see in time.
“Calm down,love,everything’s going to be just fine...I’m here.”
I tried to contact her parents,but I can’t find them no matter how much I try.They didn’t come to see her,it’s been a month,it’s like they don’t exist..what kind of parent would leave his child and run away?
“I don’t want them to hurt him,Thomas..I don’t..”
“Sssh-shh..I know..I know.”
“I love him..”
That’s when my heart broke.Being in love with a dead man,well he lived once upon a time but he’s dead now nonetheless,it’s just..depressing.I don’t know how to act,what to do.
When she doesn’t have the time confusion,she’s the same as she first came here but more depressive,if I may add.She spends most of the time in her room,drawing away..she made a painting just for me,Shakespeare himself..I have it on my room’s wall.We eat together and sometimes with Navid and William,when she feels like it.I watch her and Navid coming closer,I believe he’s like a brother to her,I can’t forget the time when I was passing by them and I heard the most peculiar conversation..
“What do you think God is,(Y/N)?”
“..God is art..she’s love,she’s a father and a mother,he’s a friend..he’s everywhere and nowhere..what God is..?”
“I think I will agree with you..”
“If God created our world he’s our father..but why do people fear him?”
“Because they’re something that no one of us understand..”
“They sure have a great imagination..right Navid?”
“Heh..they sure do..”
I’m just happy to know that she has a friend,that understands her fully,I’m her doctor she,of course,feels nervous talking with me all the time.She’s very calm and quiet but there are times that she just won’t stop crying that made me give her a tranquilizer to calm her down a bit.I don’t like the fact that her parents’ words are becaming true.I actually hate it.I don’t know what to do..
Once she confused me with Van Gogh himself..
“Vincent what are you doing here..?”
“(Y/N)..”
“You came to see me? I missed you..”
“(Y/N) I’m not Vincent..I’m Thomas..do you remember me?”
“Come on Vincent,stop joking around,my love..”
“Honey,I’m Thomas,your doctor..”
“You’re not-”
“I’m your doctor,(Y/N)..try to clear your mind..”
“No..you don’t understand..you are my Vincent..you wanted me to send your letter to Theo,that’s why you came here,to give me the letter...Thomas is at the hospital..”
“Honey..” she shakes her head,her lip trembles.
“We’re at the clinic..I’m Thomas,your doctor.Vincent’s not here..”
“No..it can’t be right..” I go closer to her,hold her arms. “I was with him..he can’t-”
“(Y/N) please try to clear your mind..” tears start running down her face “I’m here..”
She closes her eyes and cries,holding me tight. “I’m always here.”
That night wasn’t the best for neither of us..I couldn’t sleep,she couldn’t either but I learned that the hard way..I walked in her room in time,she tried to kill herself.
“(Y/N)!” I saw her on her bed,lying down,her wrist covered in blood. “No!What did you do?”
“I’m sorry..I’m sorry..I..”
“Shh..I’m here,calm down,I’ll fix this..”
“I’m sorry..I need him to come..”
“Who?! God damn..” I try to bind her wrist with her sheets as fast as I can..
“Vincent..my Vincent..”
And that time I didn’t know what else to do,so I did what I thought was right..
“He came (Y/N)..Vincent came..”
“He did..?”
“Yes..he told me to take care of you,he wants you to be strong..”
“But-”
“He wants you alive,my dear,he loves you..”
“Did you tell him-”
“That you love him?” she nods “He already knows,love..”
That night I stayed with her,with the help of William and the others I managed to bind her wrist perfectly,I cleared her wound,I made sure that no sharp object was in her room and I make her go to sleep.I was beside her that night..hoping,praying that the next day she’ll be better,that the next day I’ll see the girl I met a month ago,the woman I’m in love and I still love in her mad days.The woman that makes life here more joyfull,because no matter what I do to make this clinic..this house a home..it’s still a sad and depressing sanitarium.
Oh why did this have to happen to me.
A/N: I’m really sorry.Thank you for reading and as always,if you don’t mind,leave a comment..? ♥
