Hello! I read Hide a Heart of War way back when it first came out and I wanted to let you know it is still hands down my favorite Avengers fanfiction of all time. Kudos!

*When the commentary about the lives of the poors is just entertainment for the richs is turning into a cash-grab reality TV show* Yeah sounds about right
particularly with squid game it frustrates me when people are like. "wow they missed the point!" when i don't think that's true at all. first of all the controversy over a squid game reality tv show is going to be huge for the marketing. it's the "all publicity is good publicity" mindset. because it got people talking about it. i'm talking about it, a lot of people on twitter are talking about it - people use controversy as a direct marketing campaign these days, moreso than actual advertisements, which is also really irritating and honestly insulting.
and i feel like squid game really got a shit treatment overall, with the way people used it as clickbait online (mr beast i'm looking at you) and it's really sad to me how horribly twisted the show has become, though it's hardly the only one. with media like that, it's not that people "missed the point," it honestly feels purposefully malicious to me. it reminds me of way back when the hunger games movies were coming out, and the way they were advertised as well. it's not that they "missed the point," it's that they don't care what the point is - or they are actively trying to diminish it. the fact that these corporations can take media like squid game or hunger games, stories that have critical narratives about classism and capitalism and racism and so thoroughly strip them of that is what really depresses me.
again it makes me feel... like what's the point of even making any kind of meaningful narrative when it just feels like the industry's expectation is for it to get snatched up by amazon or netflix and be completely neutered?
i try not to think like that, but it's frustrating. art is so important when it comes to criticizing our society and the harmful institutions that oppress and kill people every single day, and i hate seeing netflix and disney and amazon trying so hard to suppress that.
so. all of that to say. it's hard being a creative right now. but i don't want people reading this as like, a doom spiral- as corny as it sounds keep writing anyways because it's important no matter what. squid game is still a meaningful show, the hunger games books are still there, so despite everything i still think just creating art and supporting each other is the best thing we can do ✌️ peace and love

Still haven’t seen Episode 3, but I did get to rewatch episodes 1 and 2 with my father-in-law. And y’all. He was smiling and happy the entire time. He was so proud that Diego Luna, a Mexican actor, is the lead and the show is actually good. Seeing him so happy and proud of Diego Luna made my heart swell.

honorable mentions for fun out-of-context lines:
“And your girlfriend kept me up until 2 am talking about--” she realizes what she’s about to say and clumsily redirects. “--work.”
“Stay on the horse,” Jeannemary orders. / “Like fuck I’m doing that,” Isaac says, sliding down to join her. “You can’t defend us both all the time.” / “Watch me,” she says, readying her stance.
She can’t blame them, not with the way Alarcón is watching her every time she skips a consonant.
“Glad I caught you,” says Kira, her voice warm with humor. “Anyway, you don’t wanna be around Quark tonight. Odo says they’re doing another audit.” / “Another one?” Jadzia asks. “Wasn’t there one only a few months ago?” / “Well, you know Quark and Odo.” / “Yeah, I guess,” says Jadzia. They spend a moment in the familiar silence of people wondering in unison, No, but seriously, what’s going on with the two of them?
At his curious look, she explains, “You can hear Rizzo from in here, too. I swear, you make that guy the narrator of one movie--”

Andrew jumping to the wild, horrible, and almost irrational conclusion that the nurse is hiding his dead baby from him shouldn't be as relatable as it is.

As we all know, Two buys into love with full taxes and no need to hand her a receipt. All forms of love is accepted and appreciated by her. Loud or soft, simple or complex, Love is everything to Two.
Including the darker sides of it.
Two doesn't acknowledge this aprt.of her but possessiveness is apart of her. She is QUITE possessive of her loved ones. Which it's THAT part of her love that the flower feeds upon. Her need to be wanted, her need to be loved, her need to hold that love as close.to her as possible with not chance of it being taken away.
This is also why no matter how good of a person Two is deep down, she can overlook so many atrocities for the sake of love. Her sisters? They are exempt from her judgements caus ehse loves them. And same for Cent. (Partially a reason why she never blamed him for the children). Two will overlook any and all crimes and killings (as long as it isn't children) quite easily for the sake of her own love.
"I'm afraid it'll fill up so much and poor out."
Of course it will Two, because you hoard it. Like a predatory gluttonous dragon she hoards love and captures it. Encompasses it and drowns all in it including herself. Of course, she'd blind herself to the darker shades of her loved cause then that'll soul the treasure.
Two is the kindest Intoner, the warmest one. Full of love and strength and arms wide enough to protect so many. But when you enter those arms you're head is close enough to bite off, and your heart is a mere touch away.

@trustbutvcriify / seth
BANDAGE patch them up when they get hurt.
It took a stern voice and her ‘If you are intent on protecting me then you first need to take care of yourself’ line before Seth allowed Eirika to clean and redress his wound. With enough determination - of which he had plenty - Seth could do it himself, but not without aggravating the wound more since it was placed so precariously.
Furthermore, she was the reason for his wound. Upon fleeing castle Renais atop Seth’s horse, Valter had pursued the pair, and it was in defending her from him that Seth was injured.
It was also, if she was being honest with herself, a way to be close to him. As a knight, it was his duty to protect her, and while Seth did not treat her any differently he also did not shy away when she touched him nor did he mind her excuses to spend time with him.
“At the next town, we can see about finding someone to look at this.” Eirika finished cleaning the wound, but let her hand stray across his muscled shoulder before she pulled away. With all the fighting they did, it wasn’t uncommon to find his wound re-opened. It worried her.
Eirika turned to grab the bandages, which was all they had on this march, and indicated for him to lift his arm. Obedient to a fault, he did so, and Eirika got to work.
This was the part that brought her close. When she needed to wrap her arms around him to retrieve the bandage and bring it full circle, when his bare arm steadied her against him, when she pulled the bandage firmly across his muscles. It was all done in silence with their eyes catching the other’s every so often, holding for a moment too long, all while cherishing these precious few moments they had alone. Before they had to return to the world outside, to being a princess and her knight.

@aristarchos said: [PLUNGE] // pm @ lw ~
( BEACH/POOL STARTERS )
[PLUNGE] - sender scoops up the receiver in their arms and jumps into the water
Ling Wen laid stretched out in the shade by the pool , simply enjoying the break from work. It was a ritual ; she’d protest being dragged away , be dragged away , and then shortly after relax and enjoy herself. Such was it now as she folded her arms behind her head and allowed herself to completely relax and closed her eyes.
Which was probably exactly how Pei Ming managed to sneak up on the almost always alert goddess. Her eyes flew open when she felt herself suddenly lifted out of the chair and heard Pei Ming’s laugh next to her ear. A deep , familiar sound that , although it normally brought some level of a smile , only seemed to spell trouble in this instant. Her head snapped towards him.
“ Pei Ming ! Don’t - ! “ But her voice cut off after just a few words. The distance between the pool and her chair wasn’t far. Her words dissolved into a high pitched shriek as he jumped and the water rushed towards them as they fell. She managed a gulp of air before disappearing beneath the surface, flailing in a flurry of bubbles and shocked indignation as she broke the surface.
It was freezing. Even if it DID feel nice against her warm skin that the sun heat had been scorching , she wasn’t going to just say that.. Quickly she latched herself onto Pei Ming , her arms wrapping around his neck to clutch on as she gasped from the shock of the water. He was laughing. Smug bastard. She pushed a few strands of now wet hair from her eyes , not letting go of him.
“ I’m going to kill you. “ She huffs , turning her face away from him as she pressed her cheek to his shoulder , hiding the small smile on her face. For a few moments she just lingers like that. Her arms remained around Pei Ming , feeling the cold water chase away the heat of the day.
And then she promptly turned and tried to shove him under the water’s surface with a laugh of her own.
