There's a Collection chapter in my head of Evan feeling guilty that Mike has separated himself from his friends.

On some levels, Evan is glad, because it means Mike and Co won't torment him. It hurts to be picked on so cruelly by people who don't even KNOW him, people who shouldn't have any reason to want to hurt him but want to anyway, and Mike was always at his worst when he was trying to impress his friends.

But he feels guilty, too, because Mike hasn't left the house in weeks. Months. Mike is so... empty. A shell. And Evan knows what it's like to not have any friends. And what it's like to finally have a friend who cares about you, how it feels like being saved.

So, Evan tries telling Mike that he can go back to hanging out with his friends if he wants.

Tries.

Because he's crying as he says it, because even though he WANTS Mike to be happy, Mikey's happiness and Mikey's friends have always been rooted in Evan’s pain, and telling Mike he should see his friends again feels like giving Mike permission to hurt him again.

sometimes i wonder if my brother misses our summers together like i do. if he still sees me as 10 years old and absolved of my wrong doings, as i do him. i wonder if he still wakes up at night wanting to ask me if i want to camp out with him, and if he stops himself from doing so. when it’s the early quiet hours of the morning, and him and i are the only ones awake, i can hear his heartbeat in the next room over. my brother is my built in best friend crafted from the same father. we share blood, but there was a time we shared a life too. i resent myself for letting my ego grow bigger than my love for him. i resent myself for putting conditions on our siblinghood. he is my brother and i love him. my fear of his rejection rings loud in my heart and mind. and still i will not desert him, i will not desert him.

tomorrow is not promised, please hug your loved ones tonight. i cannot run away from something that can’t be stopped.

I can forgive my father for all his wrongs against me, if only he had treated my mother differently. It is an echo, of what my mother says, "He may not be a good husband, but he is a good father." How do I tell her that one cannot exist without the other? He will never be a good father. He is not good to my mother.

I couldn't stop thinking about @zeroducks-2's post where they said about Jason and Bruce that "They should be unable to coexist in the same room let alone speak" and idk I got inspired and this came into being

They're after some rough patrol and Dick managed to convince Jason to go with them to manor so he can take care of his injuries.

Dick was in the middle of wrapping Jason's hand when the door opened. Tim looked up from his book and Jason stiffened so slightly that if it weren't for the way Dick was holding his arm he wouldn't even notice it and really, that was all Dick needed to get who was standing at the door. He didn't stop wrapping Jason's hand, didn't even look up and after a few seconds Jason's muscles unclenched.

"Is there something you need, Bruce?" Dick hummed after few seconds when the man still didn't move from his place by the door.

Bruce cleared his throat. "No."

And then he walked inside. Dick's eyes flicked up to watch him as he moved further into the room. Even Tim put his book aside to stare at Bruce with a frown and his lips pressed into a line, as if he wanted to say something but didn't. Bruce didn't seem to notice all the looks he received, or maybe he just simply ignored them because he put a hand on an armrest of a chair and moved as if he wanted to sit down.

"Bruce."

Bruce froze at the tone. "Yes, Dick?"

Dick turned back to his little brother. Jason was looking down, eyes flashing slightly green, at his hand Dick was still holding and that hold was probably the only thing keeping him from storming out of the room and from the manor and running far away from this place.

Dick really couldn't blame him.

"If you don't need anything, then you can leave." He said.

Jason lifted his head sharply to look at him. The green faded from his eyes and Dick curled his lips into a soft smile, before finishing the wrapping and moving to cleaning up other, more minor cuts on Jason's arm.

"What?" Bruce asked, almost as if he was making sure he heard right.

"I said leave." Dick repeated patiently. "You don't need to be here, you said so yourself. We came to this room so we wouldn't have to be around you and yet you followed us here. Maybe you didn't know. I don't care. Leave."

He didn't have to look at Bruce to see the way his eyes narrowed just slightly.

"This is my home." He said and Dick needed a few seconds to breath so he wouldn't snap.

"Yes. It is." He said in a cold voice. "That's why you can choose whatever room you want to sit in. Not this one."

"Dick-"

"I swear to fucking god, Bruce-"

#my writing #batfam #Jason could leave but he promised Dick that he would stay til he was done with treating his wounds #and then Alfred came along and made him promise he'll stay for dinner #that doesn't mean he's happy about Bruce being in the same room or even building #but it's okay - Alfred is more than happy to serve the food in the kitchen instead of dinning room where Bruce would be eating #anyway this is no beta we die like jason and idk I just thought I might share #cuz we need more of Dick standing up for Jason #this can be read either as brothers or as a ship #because why the hell not #jason todd #dick grayson #bruce wayne #dickjay #jaydick

sometimes i think about how wild a mw2 movie would be if they just dropped soapghost right in the middle with no warning or marketing. like imagine it being beat for beat the exact same, it’s your typical military action movie, promoted as just another military action movie then after they get to the safe house, ghost has to patch up soap and he’s still out of it, overwhelmed by the betrayal and everything he’s seen and ghost needs to ground him and keep him in the present, to remind him that he’s alive and safe so he kisses him and they have sex. the tantrums and the rants and the “ReAl sOLdiErS aRen’t liKe ThAt”, god i can taste it and it’s delicious

#theres never any talk of a relationship or sexuality crisis its just this moment of humanity and comfort to bring soap back to himself #real any time you need me by thirteenbullets vibes #theyre not the type of men to have something as normal as a relationship #theyre just everything to each other they know that and its enough #ghost can be such a complex character if you let him #this guy whos rejected his humanity has buried himself and become a ghost #willingly digging himself out of the grave to stop soap from digging his own #like how are there not more explicitly homoerotic military movies that actually pull the trigger (heh) on the homo part of the eroticism #you know how if movies have even a hint of queerness they wring it out for every drop of respresentation they can get #theres a hundred articles and its mentioned in every interview and it all journalists ask those actors #imagine it being a complete secret and everyone expects just a typical action movie #then boom battle buddy gay sex #like if it were a male and fenale character you would see that scene coming a mile away so why cant it happen with two guys #just doing it is the only way of normalising it #i still see men saying they act like brothers which is denial so strong even egypt is impressed #but imagine the general public expecting this manly man military movie then getting hit with the alone mission flirting and denying it #then getting smacked in the face with tender wound care and grounding love making initiated by the edgelord they were using as a self inser #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #soapghost #ghostsoap #ghoap #john soap mactavish #soap cod #simon ghost riley #ghost cod #cod mw2 #we’re a team. ghost team

here’s an idea: what if the “anti-aging” device that kuusuke made was originally an attempt at finding a way to slow down or even reverse the uncontrollable growth of kusuo’s powers?

#the limiter was never a permanent solution and he probably knew that #plus he did make the ‘power get ridder-of-er’ device so it’s not like it would be ooc for him #ooo kuusuke trying to help his brother even if he doesn’t even want to stop his powers #he really does want to be a positive influence on kusuo’s life he just does it the only way he knows how #with machines #kuusuke isn’t a good older brother but he tries guys he’s trying trust me trust me im not feral stick your fingers through the bars of my e #nclosure #saiki brothers oh how you wound me even in little ways #im normal #saiki k #talking at 42 words per second #saiki kuusuke #saiki kusuo

I wish Julian and Martok would interact more cause I think they could have the funniest possible dynamic. they spent 5 weeks together in a Jem'Hadar prison I just know they have a friendship that looks fucking INSANE from the outside looking in

#star trek: ds9 #julian bashir #martok #Martok: we are like blood brothers. we suffered the horrors of the Jem'Hadar together. our bond is unshakeable #Julian: in other words we're besties <3 #Julian is the only doctor Martok will listen to and even then he only listens to him like 50% of the time #he'll ignore whatever Julian says right up until Julian gets right into his face and starts ordering him cause he's HAD IT #and then Martok laughs heartily and goes 'MAY YOUR SPIRIT NEVER BE TARNISHED DOCTOR' #and he slaps Julian on the back so hard he knocks him over #they get drunk on blood wine and belt out Klingon operas until Quark gets Odo to throw them both out of the bar #they'll occasionally talk about their prison time and everybody around them who can hear them is. so very concerned #Julian: what was my record for shortest time between solitary confinements. less than a minute? #Martok: yes they took you out and you spat at them and they threw you back in. that was the moment I knew you had the soul of a Klingon #Julian: aw <3 #Jake sitting three seats away: YALL GOOD? #Julian joins a Klingon mission with Martok and when they come back he's dishevelled and high on painkillers and Martok is carrying him #Julian: hi :) I got blown up #Martok: he was wounded in GLORIOUS BATTLE he did his ancestors proud #like hear me out. theyre besties #and its fucking hysterical

My brother my wound question

1. Do Micheal and Evan eventually fix their relationship later on in the au?

I'd like to think so. It's just difficult to say how or when that happens. 

Michael’s trying to be better, but like. He hurt Evan really bad for a long time. Evan has no reason to trust him; he's been burned by Michael acting nice to him just to trick Evan and purposely hurt him again before (and I imagine there's been some times before where Mike has felt guilty for hurting Evan and acted kinder to him than usual as a result, but these periods of guilt and "kindness" never last long). 

(He's been burned by Liz acting similarly too, ofc, but Liz never tried to kill him. Liz isn't the reason he spent months in a hospital bed. Liz isn't the reason his head hurts. Liz isn't the reason he can't read or write anymore. Liz isn't the reason he's been physically marred, from his hair to his eye to the scars on his skin. Liz isn't the reason he couldn't walk for a month and now can only hobble on a crutch.)

It's hard for Ev in part because he has no choice but to be around Mike all the time in the Afton house. He gets no distance, no chance to heal. The person who hurt him is always lurking somewhere nearby; sometimes just out of sight, sometimes close enough to touch. Evan just can't heal enough to forgive Michael while his brain is still panicking from "I'm in danger" senses 24/7. And for the record, he can't completely forgive Elizabeth, either. He's trying, but even by the end of BCOH, he hasn't forgiven Liz any more than he has Mike. 

Mike and Evan have little moments of peace and trust in Collection, but so far that's all they are. Little moments. Maybe, once Evan leaves the Afton house for Freddy's and gets the distance and time he needs to heal, he'll be able to see how hard Mike has been working to make up for what he did and all those little moments of brotherly peace will linger in his mind, building into something more. But if this happens, it's because Evan chooses it for himself. It doesn't happen because Mike deserves forgiveness for what he did; Mike doesn't. It's a harsh truth for how young and traumatized and abused Mike is, but he doesn't deserve Evan’s forgiveness in the slightest. 

However, I think it's central to Evan’s chatacter that he just wants his family together and happy. I think he'd forgive and take a chance on Mike again sometime after he heals, not because Mike deserves it, but because Evan wants his brother back. There's a scene in my head already where Evan has been living at the Fazbear house for a while, and Freddy tells Evan that Liz and Mike have been asking about him. Asking if he's okay. Asking to talk to him, to see him. Freddy tells Evan that he doesn't have to if he doesn't want to. Evan is stuck thinking about it for a long time, wondering if he should let those two back into his life in any capacity. But he chooses, after a lot of deliberation, to see them again on the condition that they agree to go to therapy with him, as a family. Because he wants to be happy WITH them. He wants them all to be happy together without hurting each other. He just wants his brother and sister back the way they are in his vaguest memories, when he can catch hold of said memories from the sea of trauma and repression and fear (and just time; he's too young to remember the kinder moments between him and his siblings) clouding his mind. 

So, yeah, at some point in the far future, Evan and Mike (and Liz) will finally start to repair their relationship in ways outside of the little moments seen in Collection. But for now, that's all these moments are. Just small, fragile moments. Little things that Evan doesn't know if he can trust, even if he tricks himself into believing just for a moment that Mike wearing an eye patch for Halloween or watching cartoons with him on the couch can be something More between them.

Little Joe Cartwright - Scars

Scars visible are from: Scratches on his cheek - Wolf (My brothers keeper S4) On his brow - Various fist fights (e.g The Magnificent Adah S1) Long scars across his back, hand and left shoulder - Whip slashes (Dark Star S1) Multiple small scars on his back - Sawed off shotgun (The Deadly Ones S4) Scratches on his right arm - Wolf (My brothers keeper S4) Scars on right shoulder - Bullets and one arrow ( The Last Viking S2, Day of the Dragon S3, Second Chance S9) Big scar on left shoulder - Bullet and wolf (My brothers keeper S4) Smaller scars on left shoulder, on the back of his shoulders and arms - Various bullet wounds (e.g Tommy S8, Emily, S10, The Boss S4, A Darker Shadow S10, The Running Man S10) Note: Not ALL of his scars may be visible (like those on his legs) and not all of them is 100% accurate, I took some liberties with most of them 8)

#bonanza #little joe cartwright #joe cartwright #fanart #western #forsty art #im concerned for this dude's shoulders truly #I always imagined the shoulder scar from my brothers keeper looked really gnarly and kinda mangled cause #the OG bullet wound got all torn up cause of the wolf AND Adam dug it out of him himself (not saying Adam is bad at that but I mean...- #he's no doctor......) #and heck some of those wounds may not even have turned into scars BUT WE CAN IMAGINE CAN'T WE

au in where about halfway through the war the soldier says “fuck this” and instead takes yosano with him and runs away from the war.

and when he gets back home and he finds that while he’s been presumed dead, his family’s been treating his little brother like shit, so he takes him with him too.
