He gathered her wrists in one hand and brought them down hard and awkwardly just above her head. He brought his other hand to her throat, the buttons of her collar long since pulled free during their struggle, and he paused.

Beneath his fingers, the smooth, but too long line of the scar taunted him. It was thin, almost surgical in its precision, but cruel. His cruelty, not hers.

His heart skipped while hers thundered beneath his ghosting touch. Her chest rose and fell so rapidly, she was on the verge of hyperventilating. Genuinely.

The Shepherd looked up at him with those wide, terrified eyes of hers. She let her head fall back to the tabletop, exhaled, and squeezed her eyes shut. “Just do it, Thane. You win. Better this way, wouldn't want it to be anyone else.” Silent tears rolled from the corners of her eyes. “The last time, right?” she asked with a choked, pitiful laugh.

"No," he said, frozen in place with just the barest contact with her skin.

hello. i am having severe feverish g/ojo thoughts.

"You mean him severely fevered, or that the thoughts are se-"

Yes.

#thats it thats the post thats all ive got #there is an image of his normally pale face flushed #all the angles standing out with each brilliant curve illuminated from the warm glow #sweat soaked hair clinging to his forehead as his normally playful mask is slipping #tongue peeking out through his teeth as he sucks in sharp breaths trying to retain what little control he has left #the world around him starting to feel a bit further away #he can't seem to quite focus enough to pick individual shapes out from the masses #im so out of my mind right now but i just cant stop thinking about this #if i could draw better... you better believe i would be drawing this... #i might do it anyways but unlikely because the image is so pure in my head and i dont want to dirty it #ANYWAYS im posting this here because uhhhhh well honestly because i just need to say it somewhere its rotting my soul

the weird thing about when someone dies is that they're never truly dead in my head. when i think about my grandpa, my grandma, my uncle, i dont think of them as dead. i think of them as just... gone for a while. some longer than others. i think about my cat sammy and my cat cassy and i feel like i could still look over and see them there beside me. i can see the way sammy would always cuddle right up to me and lay his head on my shoulder. i can see the way cassy would swivel his head at me when he wanted pets.

they're all dead. they're all gone. but i feel like i could see them again, just like old times. all i need to do is give them a call.

#speculation nation #death/ #animal death ment/ #negative/ #i suppose. im not feeling bad exactly. just contemplating the psychological disparity. #even with my cats. i was there when they were put down. i saw them dead. i kissed their cold little heads. #i think about my uncle. how he came into my work unexpectedly a year or two ago. how delighted i was to see a familiar face. #i think of my grandma. the phone calls we would have. how supportive she was of me and my sexuality. #i think of my grandpa. his eccentricities. the way he rambled on and on about history or his own experiences #they are all alive in my mind. but years pass and theyre just Gone. absent from my life. little warning and little preparation. #i knew my grandpa was dying. my grandma was a very unpleasant surprise. #i knew my uncle was dying. but there were only six weeks between the cancer diagnosis and his death. hardly any time at all. #i knew sammy's time was running out. he was 14 years old. he was getting so skinny. and then he was gone. #cassy was a surprise. one week he was his normal attitude filled self. the next week he was dead. not even 2 years old. #for a lot of my life i hadn't known death. not really. i'd never closely known anyone who had died. #but i know now. and the odd thing is that Yes it hurts. but more often it's just strange. #someone can be in your life one day and out the next. and there's no true way to predict it. #hug your loved ones a little closer. i know i have been lately.

[chronicowboy]

anway here have a list of all the buddie/bathena shooting parallels that are so damn romantic that it can't be accidental:

eddie being shot in front of buck

bobby being shot and failing to respond just as athena pulls up

buck freezing

athena not figuring it out sooner

captain mehta saving buck and keeping him out of harm's way

athena having to be talked down by buck of all people and be her voice of reason

buck saving eddie with no regard for his own safety, buck in civvies, not his uniform

athena saving bobby with no regard for her own safety, out of her area of expertise, in turnouts instead of a bulletproof vest

buck getting eddie into that firetruck

athena getting rid of the sniper

the "i'm here"s and the "i got you"s and the "hold on"s and the "stay with me"s

buck ripping eddie's shirt open and being the one to put pressure on the wound

athena kneeling down in front of her husband for the most achingly tender forehead touch

buck telling the driver to hurry up

athena radioing for medical assistance

buck rushing to eddie's hospital bed the moment he gets the call

athena sitting by bobby's side, waiting for him to wake up

the "hey, buck"/"hey"

and the "hey"/"welcome back" of it all

buck debriefing eddie on chris

athena debriefing bobby on ethan

"i think it would have been better for him if i was the one who got shot"

"you ran into a burning building for me, right? i didn't imagine that"

buck crawling under a ladder truck, not flinching when the captain's truck burst into flames, working through gunfire

"you walked through fire for me"/"you were on the other side"

the "i needed to get my partner back" of it all, to choose the word partner instead of husband or you is such an active Choice

"because evan" and eddie proceeding to tell him that he's legally his co-parent, a partner in and outside of work

athena and bobby holding hands on the hospital bed

buck and eddie sitting on the same bed whilst eddie puts his heart in buck's hands

#sami rambles #i'm SURE im missing some but like this is all one episode and its actually insane #for buck to be so actively involved in athena's decision to go into that burning building for bobby too #like to actually face him with his own decisions in someone else for their husband... #its just actually more than a little insane and i cannot be normal about it #911 show #911 fox #evan buckley #buddie #eddie diaz #buck x eddie #bathena #bobby x athena #bobby nash #athena grant

so not only does genki canonly exist in the reboot but it seems strongly implied that he and doc ketchum worked together at some point??? i do not like that concept At All!

#mar.txt #saints row #professor genki #doc ketchum #<- does he even have a tag ik he doesn't even have a wiki page #saints row 2022 #genuinely baffled that ive seen quite literally ZERO mention ANYWHERE that a) he does in fact show up in murder circus (well not HIM him #but someone dressed as him and he's talked about + afterwards kev mentions that definitely wasn't the real him because he's immortal，so #apparently immortal in his case not only means unaging but also straight up unable to die) #and b) there's. so many things referencing him on boot hill?? a TON of cat heads that appear to quite obviously be stylized genki，that #appear to have been painted over a different colour than pink，booths that say smthn like 'the doc and professor show'，and on the main #hidden history thingy (which i ALSO couldn't find a SINGLE guide for/barely any mention of on google ANYWHERE) that has doc's face painted #on it saying smthn like 'doc says hello' there's a little sign tacked on that says 'genki lives!!!' which. ?????? #i wonder if they worked together and doc tried to fuck him over at some point，possibly by killing him #which obviously did not work #anyways. murder circus is fun so is the reboot and i'm baffled at how so few people seem to have put the (imo quite obvious when you see #them) pieces together that the reboot likely IS in fact a direct tie to the reboot ending of gat out of hell #anyways im completely normal about saints row and genki can't you tell i definitely didn't stay up way past my bedtime specifically to #grind out murder circus so i could see genki (he's got some nice Drip™️ btw it looks kind of marshall-inspired) #i'm going to be slowly going ever more slightly insane over pondering wtf the connection between he and doc ketchum is

[pinkseas]

on my hands and knees begging u to say your words about xiaolumi… i want to hear them… i’ll pay you back in art i prommy—

WHY WOULD YOU ENABLE ME LIKE THIS no need for art i literally owe you my fucking Life just for that one piece like oh my god. ohhhh my god. the amount of times i have linked that to my friends and waxed poetic and maybe cried a little. ANYWAYS. i am about to be So Silly And So Disorganized

so here's the thing right?? it depends SO heavily on how you interpret lumine. the traveler definitely has their own personality and agenda ingame but there's still SO much wiggle room in terms of what you do with that. if i really wanted to i could probably make it a Lot More Accurate by focusing on the traveler in canon and going from there however i will in fact be completely ignoring that and focusing on my interpretation of lumi specifically light and love <3 <- thats my little disclaimer ANYWAYS

they are So Similar in a lot of ways. young adults who are also centuries old. stubborn bastards who would give their lives protecting those around them even if they got absolutely nothing in return. so quick to throw themselves into the line of fire for the sake of friends and strangers alike. such a strong instinct to protect. not mortal, not by a long shot, but not quite gods either, something uniquely inhuman and in between. a centuries worth of weight on their shoulders. reaching their breaking points and pushing further still, refusing to let themselves crumble. and, even with very close companions, i think they're very lonely. there's no one quite like xiao in teyvat, no one quite like lumine without aether there by her side- maybe no one quite like lumine at all, anymore.

i think its about sharing. i think they'd find it easy to talk with and be around one another, even though they're typically so slow and so careful with trust. i think fighting together comes as easily as breathing, that their urge to protect lines up perfectly with the others and leads to them doing so much for those around them as well as each other. they will not let the other fall. they share the weight on their shoulders, share the centuries of bloodshed and horrors seen and caused alike, share in the unique brand of loneliness that comes with knowing that where someone was once by your side there's no one like you left.

vulnerability does not come easily to any of them. they can always push themselves further, always be a little stronger, always run a little faster. but its exactly that, i think, the recognition of someone so like themselves that makes it easier for them to trust in one another. lumine can call xiao's name when she needs him, xiao can find lumine if he needs her. i think that for all they would shoulder the world on their own and know the other would do the same in a heartbeat, they trust one another to come to them when they need help. it would be so, so easy to ignore it, to press forward, to remain alone. but they made a promise, and they intend to keep it.

i like to imagine that lumine's presence has a purifying effect on xiao. something she could control and channel should she realize, but for now something small, just enough to ease that weight. just enough to make sure he won't succumb.

i think a big part of it is about learning how to live again. they both carry that weight, that stubborn mindset, but wanting to see the other happy helps. knowing the other understands helps. when it hurts they can breathe together, and the type of pain they feel may never truly go away but they dont have to experience it alone.

every snowflake, every sunrise, every flower is just a little bit different from the rest. xiao's favorite quiet places are nicer with her there. they live so very differently but lumine's teapot is always there and xiao is no longer bound by his contract, learning ever so slowly how to let himself go. they have spent so, so long surviving. now, though, they remember to taste the fresh air, learn to indulge in the smallest things. lumine experiments with recipes until her almond tofu is catered to xiao's tastes exactly, the perfect texture. at night in liyue xiao tells her stories of the constellations and she remembers every word, at night in the teapot lumine will lift a hand and the sky will match her memories, her turn to tell stories about stars he's never seen.

they are both so, so tired. and i think that they would trust the other enough to let themselves rest. you can put your strength down. im sitting here with you at the kitchen table. you dont need to say anything. <- that quote is so them for real its shared silences mutual understanding and comfort always having each other's backs its twin moons twin stars two beings caught in each other's orbit and choosing every day to stay. sitting side by side on the mountaintop, hands entwined, lumine's head on his shoulder. breathing. loving. living.

#feeling so normal right now #um. um. um. #yeah i have no excuse im just out of my fucking mind #currently being plagued with post-chasm thoughts where zhongli saving xiao lent him energy and that energy Fades #and xiao is fucking exhausted and still hurt and completely burnt out #and lumine is there and its the first time he enters the teapot because if she says theyll be safe there he trusts her #if lumine says no harm will come to them here he believes her #very 'you took care of me now let me take care of you' #washing the dirt and debris from their skin from their hair shielding his face with a hand so she doesnt get shampoo in his eyes #every movement gentle and careful and precise and purposeful. i love you on purpose i care about you on purpose that quote is so them too #making both of them food because neither of them need it but it helps with their energy regardless #making both of them sleep because they desperately need the rest #and its a little selfish of her to wrap her arm around him because she needs the reminder that hes there and safe and whole #but he doesnt stop her. and everyone has to be selfish at times #spending hours and hours laying there beneath the stars breathing deeply existing together remembering that theyre alive #idk. like i said. the quiet moments the unconditional trust #im so tempted to try and think of more but i am Stopping Myself finally. we're done we are DONE #one day i will be normal about them but until then. #aly.genshin #aly.writing
