you think a reason hunter is so hyperfocused on finding omega is because he's aware of his increased aging and knows he's not going to get as much time with her as he should so any long time spent apart feels like even longer in relation to his life span

i won't lie i think it's very funny (in. in a sad way) if most of the chain are having a good time during lu. like, they're hanging out with these other guys who actually GET them in a way almost no one else can, and they don't have to do all the fighting by themselves for once, and they're eating great food all the time and so on. sure, some of them miss their families or homes or whatever, and obviously they sometimes get hurt and have bad experiences, but for the most part they're all chilling.
...and then there's sky. sky, who during the entire thing is absolutely haunted by the fact that all of these people have suffered so much because of him. pretty much all of them began their quests as children, and it was his fault. sky, who doesn't say a word about the curse to anyone, who keeps all his guilt and horror and self-loathing locked up tight inside his chest. every time someone alludes to a traumatic event-even when they're just making a joke-sky has to look away for a moment to compose himself. because that trauma was his fault, too. it only happened because he failed.
he loves the other links just as much as any of them do. he also sees them as his family. but he can only forget himself and actually have a good time briefly, because he'll see time's eye or wild's scars and suddenly remember that he was the one who doomed them all.
(and you would never guess how he's feeling, how he's constantly being crushed under the massive weight of his guilt. he's always sleeping or talking about sun or carving or playing his harp. he seems so peaceful, so happy. he suffers so much, but he suffers in silence. after all, he doesn't deserve to tell anyone how he feels. not when it's all his fault.)

For Grace!
🌺
Hi there, thank you so much for asking me a question! I'm very excited to meet all you guys and I'm just honoured that you guys want to ask questions! And.... the author is looking at me cause I'm rambling so I guess I better answer the question.
🌺 what is the best gift someone has ever given you and why is it so important?
Ooooh good question. A few come to mind but the best gift hmm... It feels weird to say this, cause I feel like he was so much more than a gift, he was my best friend. But Spud, my dog. My dad got him for me for my 12th birthday. He was a birthday present and then his collar, bed and bowl where my Christmas present. (I'm used to the combined presents because... well my birthday is on Christmas.) I don't think dad told mom about him, and hid him in the garden shed for a few days. I'm also pretty sure he found Spud on the side of the road on the mainland during a job cause he was very skinny and I couldn't tell what breed he was. (neither could the vet when we finally got him mirco chipped and desexed) But I didn't care, I was in love.
Spud was important because that was a time in my life I didn't have many friends. I was being bullied pretty badly in middle school and that was also when my nightmares started. I had to change schools to a private catholic school for all grades. I mean there isn't much you can do on an island with only two other schools to choose from. At my new school I wasn't bullied, but everyone there knew each other from since they were in Pre K soo... I was excluded from a lot. The closest relationships I had were with the teachers... ( 0_0 I-I I don't mean... not like that... I meant they were friendly and tried to make sure I was included in things.) But Spud was a life saver. He was always so happy to see me, it really brightened up my day to see him. He was also a very well behaved dog, very loyal. He would follow me everywhere. I used to go walking a lot around the Island, and sit some where and paint, we'd play fetch while I painted, and he'd never wonder too far. He also used to sleep at the foot of my bed and snore. His little snuffles helped me sleep at night.

Forgot and then watched Katy Perry’s The One That Got Away because Diego Luna is in it. He’s so cute but then that ending was such a gut punch!
...time to write an angsty fic with Jyn and Cassian along the same lines as that video.

Hey! AK EN translated the Arturia manga! I think some of these are the panels that spoke out to me
When she used her magic on her parents, esp the contrast between it. The first encounter with her mother even establishes that Arturia, with a somewhat childlike yet well-meaning understanding of the difficult situation her mother is in emotionally and decides that if her mother can do what makes her happy, that is what is most important, even if it lead to her death.
And for her father, it shows how it could look to an outsider someone who knows what her power is and fears what they would do if no longer held together by their inhibitions and society. It is obviously a terrifying thought and rejecting it is the logical(?) course of action.
Everything unfettered is not always kind and it is not always cruel. It breaks the social contract everyone agrees to follow in order to live but it is not something that I think is a purely evil action because we all know how the social contract can put the same people it exists to help into horrible binds.
Also Executor explains her motivations better then me:
she's like, an emotional hedonist whose somewhat childish beliefs would always lead to chaos bc society would never work if people just said what they felt and did what they liked but she's not pursuing this out of some malice for the world or a desire to see people succumb to chaos or pain, at least imo.

me: MY HAIRLINE IS RECEDING OH NO OH FUCK
also me: full time student (worth noting i wrote stupid here at first without realizing), 20-30 hours in customer service every week, teaching myself 3/4 classes, teaching myself advanced algebra with a teacher (basically just a proctor) who shuts down any/all asks for help, juggling college financial woes, navigating dying relationships/people abandoning and/or attacking me bc i don't have time for things i used to anymore, none of my hobbies are making me happy when and if i have time for them,, i have no time for myself, i'm on my second all-nighter this week, i'm perpetually exhausted in a way sleep isn't fixing, my body aches because i'm so tired, and i'm barely able to stay asleep when i do get the chance bc the anxiety wakes me up
my hairline: two hops this time!

Because all of this discussion about kisses furthering the narrative made me think of Your Name Engraved Herein,
And now I've hurt my own feelings.
If you need me, I'll be crying over a basket of Red Lobster biscuits.
