#how gentle and kind you are

[a-small-writer-in-a-big-world]

Soft smut is just so much more fulfilling to me than the hardcore stuff

#like yes #please let me read about how devoted you are #how gentle and kind you are #how soft and sweet you are #how caring and thoughtful #how in love you are #it’s so much better because it feels so much more real

Gardening pals

#kirby #kots #kirby of the stars #kirby fanart #hoshi no kirby #taranza #Galacta Knight #last year I had it revealed to me in a dream that Galacta would enjoy gardening #it made so much sense back then #it doesn't make sense now but i don't make the rules #i think Taranza could show Galacta how to interact with fragile things without you know killing them #Galacta has been destructive for so long they have been used as a weapon for as long as they remember #and then being free and discovering they are capable of gentleness??? #the best i think #i started rendering this yesterday i spent like 4 hours on it until i realized i hate rendering so gray it is #please forgive me rendering gods I'm just no good #morpho butterflies surround Galacta in the garden if it wasn't clear #i know some people see them and freak out for obvious reasons but they're kind to Galacta and Galacta is still grateful to them #do you like galacta's cap it took me so long to figure out out how to get it on their head #i don't know anything about gardening so i just made Taranza hold any gardening tool I could think of #he has too many hands in my opinion i don't know what to do with them

I'm sorry I let down my guard.

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #xue yang #xiao xingchen #God DAMN this scene was brutal. Season 2 episode 2 is almost nothing but misery and anguish #Helena by Nickle Creek does not quite fit the comic's vibe but it is absolutely a Xue Yang song so I linked it. #The change from “Helena don't walk away...(gentle)” to “HELENA. DON'T WALK AWAY (threat)” is fantastic. #And “Don't waste your pretty sympathy - I'll always be just fine”. Xue Yang core. #Okay now for the real meat. Disclaimer first: *I really like XY.* I think he's a great character. I think his actions consistently- #come from a place of deep trauma. While his reactions and actions put him in a villainous role he is still human about his hurt #and what I'm about to say is NOT intended to be a statement of causality or villianize a group of misunderstood people. #So with that said...Man oh man does Xue Yang have a lot of BPD traits. More that just 'character who is chronically manipulative'. #The impulsivity and emotional reactions and seeking stability makes him feel like he needs that control. What other choice is there? #The part that really gets me is how he *wants* to be safe and happy. But his past experiences tell him how thats impossible #He's the kind of person who goes 'if you don't like me then you better hate me for something substantial". All (pos) or All (neg) #''Love me entirely or Hate me. But don't you dare leave me or forget about me.'' #Not at all comfortable saying 'BPD coded'. Im not a psychiatrist. Just that he has TRAITS. Feel free to disagree or add your thoughts. #ppl with bpd also are not a monolith and everyone has very different experiences. Xue yang is very complex. People more so.

Still Alive (But Barely Breathing)

If someone had told Red Hood that he was going to climb through the wrong window at one of his many safe houses, he’d have laughed and flipped them off. Not just because it probably would have been the Demon Brat saying it and disregarding the little fucker would certainly get under his skin. And piss off Bruce. No. Jason was definitely too careful to make a mistake like that.

Well, until tonight.

To be fair, he had been shot. Twice. A through and through in his side, hopefully not damaging anything important, and once in the arm. But that might’ve been a graze. Going by pain, it hurt less than his side. Somewhere between “I need a bandaid” and “stepping on an infinite number of Legos with sharp teeth” on the pain scale. Honestly, he didn’t even want to look until he was safe. It’s not a problem if I can’t see it. And he was currently not safe judging by the sword the resident of this apartment held at his throat.

The first thing he noted was that she wasn’t afraid. In fact, she seemed hella pissed. Her beautiful blue eyes flashed in the moonlight. Most people, when they saw the helmet, along with his stature (Dickface said he was built like a tank) and intimidating presence, well, they got a little scared. This woman stood resolute, calm and determined in the face of danger. She had the presence of an Amazonian warrior. Now, Jason wasn’t much of a betting man, but he’d have put money down on her winning this fight.

Too many voices were vying for dominance in his mind. A part of him thought that if he could get the sword away from his throat, he stood a fighting chance of getting away. Another part considered his injuries. He was lightheaded already which was not a good sign. He needed to get out of here and get help fast. Another part geeked out over the sword. It was exquisite. This woman really had taste. The ornate filigree handle looked like a Swiss rapier, circa late 1600s. But the blade was not fragile like a rapier. In fact, it looked more like a sturdy longsword. Like she had taken pieces of history and meshed them together to create a sword that was beautiful but deadly. Another very small voice thought she was beautiful. He tried to ignore the last one it definitely wouldn’t help him here and hatch a plan to escape. She stepped further into the moonlight and all thoughts flew out of his head. He could have sworn her eyes were ice blue. Now they were a familiar bright green; practically glowing. Where had he seen that color before?

Trying to think made his head all fuzzy. Oh well. Time for some introductions. He felt like a seasoned warrior out to meet a new friend or foe. Attempting to speak felt like an impossible task.

“Hi.” He choked out, his voice gravelly and menacing with the helmet on.

“Hi Mister Red Hood!” A boy’s voice rang out from behind the woman. Oh shit. There was a kid. How did he not see a kid? Why was there a kid here?! He glanced around and noticed the sparse furniture along with a few moving boxes stacked in the corner. He… did he have the wrong apartment? This was his safe house in the Narrows. As far as he knew, no one lived on his floor or in the apartments above or below his. That’s what made this safe house perfect. It was convenient. It was safe.

The woman whispered something to the boy. He couldn’t tell if the words she spoke in a foreign yet all too familiar language were what made his blood run cold. Or the rapid blood loss was getting to him. Right. He needed help. Now. That forced him back into focus. He could feel his thoughts slowly slipping away. He grabbed onto the edge of the windowsill he’d just climbed through, grunting in pain at the sudden gush of blood coming from his side.

The woman tentatively lowered her sword, concern etched on her face. Good. This was good. He was… what was he doing? A wave of dizziness washed over him and he fell backward onto the floor. Black started forming around the edges of his vision. The woman rushed to his side and leaned over him. Her touch was light as she quickly assessed his wounds. Her hair enveloped his vision, so all he could see was her beautiful face. She was talking to him, face to face, er well, helmet, but he couldn’t hear her. Her voice distorted and muffled.

His last thought was, “Damn she’s pretty.” Before succumbing to sleep.

#yes he said that out loud #Danny’s like eww that’s my mom #Jazz is freaking out #she’s kind of having a rough day #she just fled Amity Park with a deaged Danny #hadn’t lived in Gotham for a week before a vigilante climbed through her bedroom window #I’m actually trying to write this #we’ll see how it goes #Dan is going to be in it #hardcover ship #anger management ship #danny phantom #jazz fenton #dp x dc crossover #trying to plan it out more #I haven’t decided if Vlad is going to be redeemed or not #what do you think? #be gentle #I break easily #still deciding who all will be in it #if anyone has any ideas I’m all ears #queen regent jazz #ghost king Dan #it’s a shared title #they both hate it #dp x dc #dc x dp #dp x dc prompt #dc x dp au

I went to a local yarn store for the first time, and while I was there, somebody was talking about getting a beginner's knitting kit, and she inquired about when lessons were, and when she was told that they'd be happy to sit down with her and teach her, she was so delighted. She talked about how excited she was and how much she wanted to learn to knit, and it just... it made me fall in love with humanity. It was this pure, unadulterated happiness coming from somebody and it was so genuine and kind, and I couldn't help but smile.

I guess all of this is to say... every moment, there are tiny little joys like this all over the world, and it makes this life worth living. I hope you witness and feel joy this simple, this pure.

#positivity #and she was older too! it made me really happy because it just reminds me that there is no such thing as 'too old' #you will never be too old to learn something - to feel that level of happiness and excitement #if i think about this too hard i'm going to start crying #and the yarn store has this really hip name and all the patrons there were older women and i thought that was cute and funny #i felt so odd being the only young person there though but i know that's just my own insecurity and not how they'd feel #i find older people absolutely LOVE when young people share their interests. i think old people get... used to feeling out of touch... #...and almost... neglected in a way by younger adults. it's hard to describe but i sense some loneliness in some old people y'know? #and when i share their interests... maybe it's like they feel young again - seen by somebody else? #that's my assumption anyway. but i like being around old people - they can absolutely be kind and gentle and i appreciate it

Lord, give me strength. The PJO discourse has begun, and no one starting it has read the books in the last five years.

#guys I just reread them a month ago; I promise that you are misremembering 90% of the og series. (I did too. it’s called passage of time.) #seriously please reread them before criticizing the show or just don’t criticize it at all. #unless you’re criticizing how it stands on its own instead of how accurate it is to the books. #I mean this in the kindest most gentle way possible because you guys are ruining what could be a great experience for yourselves #I’m over here vibing; don’t y’all wanna be vibing? vibe with me #edit: I invite y’all to rewatch the movies too actually because I keep seeing people act like the movies were better than they were. #like guys…that shit was a special kind of ass. don’t pretend it’s more true to source material (especially character wise and theme wise) #just because the show isn’t what you specifically wanted it to be. #percy jackson and the olympians #pjo #percy jackson #pjo adaptation #pjo tv show #pjo tv series #percy jackson disney+ #rick riordan #percy jackson series #the lightning thief

Daniel in "Resurrection"

#one of my fave episodes even without any bias toward the director or the writer!!! #stargate #sg-1 #stargateedit #daniel jackson #michael shanks #s7 #ep19 #***edits #one of THEE daniel episodes #just daniel at his best #his interactions with anna are everything that i have always loved about daniel #being so kind and gentle with her but also persistent in a way that's empowering #how she just has to mention that he's acting like keffler and he immediately stops and researches those interactions #in order to understand her trauma AND to make sure he doesn't act like that #and then of course how he goes off when he realizes she's doomed #also it makes me want to eat the drywall how he's with her when she dies #i mean if you could pick a way to go gently passing away in daniel jackson's arms is pretty damn good tbh

you can clearly see where scara gets his good looks from

#i believe in ei supremacy🛐 #idc if she discarded scaramouche or whatever she was doing it for his own good #miko legit wanted to kill him but ei set him free upon seeing him shed tears in his moment of creation #she saw his gentle heart and wanted him to be something more.. she didn't want him to just be a lifeless vessel for her gnosis #even if scaramouche didn't understand and felt betrayed.. abandoned by the woman he called mother #ei had a heart kind enough to set him free.. i hope one day she gets the chance to tell her son that she did this out of love #bc you can clearly see how much scara wanted ei's love–its absolutely heartbreaking #HE STOLE THE GNOSIS BC EVEN THOUGH HE RESENTED EI HE WANTED A PART OF HER WITH HIM #HE WANTED TO SHOW HER THAT HE COULD CARRY HER GNOSIS JUST LIKE HE WAS INTENDED TO.. THAT HE WAS NEVER DEFECTIVE #DEEP DOWN?? THIS WAS NEVER ABOUT REVENGE. HE JUST WANTED HIS MOTHER'S ACCEPTANCE😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 #I DONT THINK YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND HOW INCONSOLABLE I AM ABOUT THIS #genshin impact #raiden ei #ei genshin impact #ei genshin #raiden shogun #beelzebub #lotus draws

requested by @lexkent: the scene in "Shattered" where Lana sees Lex on the ground in the stable sitting curled into himself, and she looks anguished to see him in such a state, and she's so kind and compassionate to him

+ bonus Lana, after literally almost dying:

#thank you erin for requesting this because these scenes are incredibly underrated #like the moment where lana hands lex the drink and he smiles up at her with such an innocently adoring look....... many thoughts head full #(yes I know it all goes horribly wrong right after that but shhhhh) #she's just soooo soft and gentle and sweet with him and it's hitting all the best hurt/comfort buttons in my heart 🥺 #just look at all the comforting touches!! lex almost never receives that kind of genuine affection/positive physical contact from other ppl #I think it's also worth pointing out that lana decides at the end of the ep that being around *clark* is dangerous and she should avoid him #but she never expresses a similar sentiment towards lex or blames him at all for what happened #and a few episodes later she even tells him that he could have visited her while she was recovering #......god I still can't get over the fact that her first words when she wakes up in the hospital are 'how's lex' like I really could cry #she's the best and I won't hear a word to the contrary #smallville #smallvilleedit #svedit #lana lang #lex luthor #clark kent #lexana #dcmultiverse #sv 3x08 #my gifs

#don't ask what they're sitting on for kurapika to be at that angle lol #it's a shhhhhhh don't worry about it moment #hunter x hunter #hxh #kurapika #senritsu #melody hxh #kurasen #idk i just like how they're kind of quiet and gentle with each other #i think it's sweet #...love how you can look at the line weight and clearly see which hands i sketched out in like 5 seconds and forgot about #and which ones i had to painstakingly noodle into place #one set of fingers i can (sort of) handle but two? now that's kind of

Existing in more than one fandom space is like having more than one group of friends but both of them being so wildly different that any overlap at all would be like getting shot in the head

#like there are things that I would consider writing for House MD or Saw but not for Lord of the Rings you know #Same goes for reading #it's like how you have two personalities for your friend groups #and you make a joke that would absolutely score in friend group A #but friend group B just stares at you weird #like in LOTR or The Hobbit fandom I am so used to gentleness and care all around #Characters that love each other against the odds #but with House it's like #yeah these two men hate each other with everything they're worth #yeah they're so codependent that they would literally die for each other #yeah they have freaknasty sex on the regular #yeah i would talk for hours about their omegaverse dynamic #then saw is kind of similar to House in a few ways but fundamentally different because the love there is borne from such tragedy #or in AUs it's love at first sight #and you have these two men who are so so so different #and want desperately to take care of each other #THOSE DYNAMICS DON'T WORK FOR HOUSE OR FOR THE HOBBIT #I would never write House and Wilson lovey-dovey and caring just like I would never write Thorin and Bilbo engaging in pet-play #Anyway. anyway. #hilson #house md #thilbo #the hobbit #Saw #sawposting #chainshipping #fandom

mulder not owning a bed is such a minor character detail that’s encompassing of practically the entirety of who he is, which is so crazy honestly

#chris carter’s faustian deal etc etc #he does not ever stop he does not ever rest he does not ever sleep #he does not allow himself a moment’s comfort or affection or softness #and the thing is that you don’t even know he doesn’t have a bed at first #you just kind of notice that you never see him sleep #unless it’s on the couch in his clothes with the tv on #but then they kind of poke fun at it #like van blundt’s ‘where do i SLEEP?’ in his apartment #and the first ever peek into his bedroom in s6 #that he does have one #it’s just stacked floor to ceiling with boxes #and it's so strange and unusual that it stands out in a way that makes you HAVE to clock these things about him #that he usually can try to hide in a well placed joke or reassuring smile #behind a shut door when there are lamps and blankets and framed artwork in the main room #he’s so outwardly kind and gentle that you don’t see it at first #the extent of how self-punishing and driven mad with guilt he is #until the show opens a door and almost points and laughs

Who's ready to talk about the 7th brother I won't let anyone forget? Gotta start my Wonho thread simply before I get completely untethered.

#monsta x #wonho #without exaggeration i tell you the open mind thumbnail changed my life #when he left mx i legit had a breakdown #so when he came back so fiercely it was everything to me #his silhouette is that of apollo's #it's not just his kind gentle eyes #his ears are precious lil coquina clamshells and I’m obsessed with them #HE’S SO SINCERE #HOW WAS THAT GIRL NOT VAPORIZED #the level of love and hope and adoration he conveys connecting with his fans #his bare face is perfection #i want to kiss each and every freckle #especially the one on his nose

Shinsou had a crush on you since like, young kids days and never thought you noticed him, but that was good cause maybe you thought he was a weird kid, so once he beefed up and finally got the confidence to talk to you it gets shut right tf back down when you're like "Of course i remember you!"

I don't know which part is worse............................ Shinso being so absorbed in his own supposed loser-hood in his youth that he essentially ignored you for 5-10 years while he was working out his self esteem issues ... or the fact that you not only DO remember him, berry well at that, but don't really think anything of it because you thought HE was kinda... a jerk for never being nice to you back.

(Cuz on one hand, you're so sweet, smiling at him when he approaches you, genuinely, just like you did back when you were both under ten and you'd smile at him from the other side of the park... but on the other hand, you don't hesitate to turn right back to your own friends after he barely manages to answer your "how have you been" question and you give him pity eyes like you still think he's a shy headass.

It's just... he doesn't want to fuck it up a second time and lose his momentum... but all the confidence he put into the moment deflated the second he realized you were even more beautiful and more kind than he remembered you and it got him tripping over his words)

ANYWAY then there's another 2-4 months of him trying to get your number just to be a fool over text before even managing to convince you he's worth a fucking damn LOL.

(And he is worth a damn, so much more than a damn because he's willing to give anything and everything up for you but... doesn't know how to say it in a way that wouldn't scare you off for good...

Not to mention he's so fucking bad at texting. Yes, his dry humor is funny as hell but he's not trying to be funny with you, he's trying to WOO you and so the whole thing is just him making excuses to reach out to you even tho texting first for him is like plucking ass hair.)

#shinso #no bc shy people.... i love them but ... put in the work y'all i am doing all this talking for what??? #to be silently appreciated? no. I have my own issues too !!! and u don't see me hesitating to speak !!!!!! #<- how i imagine this reader bc shy ppl grate on me sometimes with feeling unable or scared to talk #so anyway being shy bites shinso in the BEHIND bc he didn't realize he wasn't just... a loser nobody saw... #but a loser everyone saw as being... mean. for not wanting to talk to them #even tho i know you were kind and gentle to him #he was never able to reciprocate out of feeling like he wasn't good enough #DISASTER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #anyway he's sexxy af now but you just think it's made him more self-absorbed #until you actually get to know him again and it turns out you were wrong too #LMAO I LOVE THIS DISASTER RELATIONSHIP #sorry if this went in a totally weird direction anon i couldnt help myself !! #caitie things #anon #gen

something hilariously ironic and somehow kind of sweet: this is the first time I've ever received flowers from a boy in my LIFE. this is the first time, and they aren't from my ex-boyfriend (the thought never crossed his mind) or my father or my brother..... the FIRST TIME I've ever received intentional flowers from a boy, it's from boy problem no 2. 😂😂😂😂😂 like what on earth!!!!!

#if i don't laugh about it i WILL cry #this is the second emotionally unavailable engineer boy who is so gentle it breaks my heart #i am floored by how kind of a friend he is. he and another friend intentionally planned a surprise #knowing that i had mixed feelings about my birthday and knowing that friends in the past seldom organized things for it #i have FLOWERS from him!!! dianthus flowers. and a book of prayers!!!!!! #in some ways this too is a gift. #so is the even more ironic fact that he told me a few days ago that he loved me (he meant it platonically). im not making this up lol #you couldn't make this up!!! #from a narrative point of view this is yet another HILARIOUS situation in the ongoing series of romantic mishaps #it does make my heart twist a little but it is light enough that i can still laugh about it! #i have a great deal of fondness for this man and i will not agonize over this the way i did over the first engineer :)
