Having lost my cat, my uncle, my great grandmother, my grandma's best friend (& one of the people who helped raise me), AND my dad all within the span of 9 months,
I have little sympathy for people who use deaths as an excuse to be an asshole. I get it, it sucks. Get the fuck over it. Your grief is not an excuse to treat others like shit. What the fuck.
#speculation nation#this isnt anything personal. im just reacting to a post that kind of pissed me off.#to be fair i was never close with my great grandmother so im not particularly broken up about that one#but it's still yet another death in the family within such a short period of time.#my cat is on this list bc he was the first one and it majorly fucked me up. so yeah it deserves to be here.#the others. well. my grandma's best friend makes me sad but at least she was getting up in years#my uncle and dad though. especially my dad. yea those have fucked me up the most.#im never gonna be the same after experiencing all of this in such short succession.#it sucks in a major way. and things are still continuously tumultuous.#but you dont see me lording it over people and using it as an excuse to be an asshole.#maybe i make people uncomfortable with how casually i mention it. but like whatever. it's simply my truth.#that's still just like. me just talking about what ive been up to. that kind of thing.#idk acting like someone needs to be treated with the most tender of touches after experiencing a major death#to the point where you cant even tell them when theyre being a manipulative little asshole?#i dont fucking think so!#yeah okay all grief hits different but ive pulled myself up by the bootstraps and kept my head on straight#even after i experienced death after death after death after death after Fucking Death#whats your excuse? youre Sad? we all fucking are. thats just life.#it's horrible and awful and it sucks that we have to live with this but you CANT let that affect how you treat other people!!!!!#and here i am making my own post venting about it instead of replying to the aita post that sparked this#bc the person the post was about just made me so angry to hear about.#but i am... a reasonable adult who separates themselves from situations before reacting in anger...#and so im making a tumblr post to get the emotions out instead of getting emotional at random strangers lol#anyways i actually had a pretty good day today. but in the way of grief. the smallest things can trigger moods sometimes.#but i am letting the emotions flow... here they are... i have expressed them... and i shall now release them... amen...#negative/#i guess lol. i sure did rant enough for it.

tay ever since you mentioned your lance becomes a single parent to his niece and nephew au i have NOT been able to stop thinking about it and the possibilities. it just. sounds like the perfect kind of thing to tear my heart to pieces in the best way possible 👌🏻
omg thank you!! i love that au too i wanna write for it so bad. lance is the only family member who lived close to luis on whatever side of the country theyre on, but he became very close to his niece and nephew (who i imagine are younger in this au; nadia is practically a baby and sylvio is only in kindergarten) so i def think that luis and lisa who ADOREEEE lance and know how good he is with their kids would write him into their will as the kids’ guardian.
when they die, its a car accident. it was raining. since lance lived nearby he was on their emergency contact list as number 1 and when he gets the call, hes pulling an extra shift at the bar—he works two jobs maybe—one is his career (idk what that is yet tbh) and he does bartending on the side to make extra $$$
keith is the first person he calls when he gets to the police station that night bc keiths number is the first one on his recent calls history. he and keith arent all that close—they have the same friends, but other than the occasional trivia/game night, they dont cross paths a whole lot. actually they get on each others nerves often lol.
but lance had called him earlier that day with some quick question, the whole conversation couldnt have lasted more than 2 minutes, but lance calls him now and its 2am and he wakes keith up with his call but keith is immediately awake when lance starts crying into the phone and then keith comes to the police station for him.
the next day lance learns that he has been appointed guardianship of nadia and sylvio and hes able to keep it together while his family is around for the funeral because he has all this support and bosses have been extremely understanding and veronica stays for an extra month before she has to go back home for work so its easier but then. once life keeps moving, he becomes SUPER overwhelmed. its impossible to work two jobs and play parent for two kids.
one late afternoon, keith is bringing over some casserole shiro made for lance bc shiro got caught up and couldnt. lance looks like he hasnt slept in 5 days when he answers the door, hair all greasy, majorly stressed out. keith offers to watch the kids and heat up the casserole in the oven while lance takes some time to nap and/or shower and lance is SO skeptical at first (“and leave you alone with the kids!?”) but the idea of a hot shower and a 20 minute cat nap are too good to resist.
lance feels like a new man when he comes back out of his room like an hour later and keith is sitting on the floor of the living room playing with sylvio, nadia in the V of his legs, one superhero toy in each of his hands. He asks keith to stay for dinner, and he does, stays until sylvio and nadia have been tucked into bed and cant beg for keith to stay anymore.
keith offers to help out when he can, if lance wants. lance says not to worry about it, but sylvio talks about keith for DAYS cant stop prattling about how cool and fun keith is and lance thinks that sylvio isnt too far off, actually.
two weeks later hes calling keith and asking if he can pick the kids up from afterschool daycare bc he has to stay late at work with promises of making it up to him. (keith has to borrow shiros car to pick up the kids since all he has is his motocycle but he makes it work!!)
and basically the au turns into keith helping lance out when he needs it and lance just falling in love with this man so hard, someone who has been there for him and who his kids adore like 🥺🥺🥺 and the angst around lance losing his brother and sister in law and its just!!!! MY GODDD I NEED TO FIND TIME AND INSP TO WRITE THIS OUT LMAO

RULES: Choose any three fandoms (in random order) and answer the questions. Then tag some friends.
I choose:
bbc sherlock
clique
yuri! on ice
The first character you loved:
ohhh, first was sherlock! then john almost 0.001 secs later
im pretty sure it was elizabeth. shes the cutest and i relate to her the most
probably Minako Okukawa, because shes so charming and funny
The character you never expected to love so much:
mrs hudson!!!!
louise!!! shes so smart and gorgeous and the least involved in the drama
yurio!!! i used to dislike him lmao but now hes my son
The character you relate to most:
molly hooper
like i said above, elizabeth!
ohh definitely yuri
The character you’d slap
john because sherlock suffered sooo much for him and opened his heart only to be abandoned because john is a naive idiot who still cant tell sherlock’s NOT a sociopath
SO MANY bc almost all of them did shitty things.. but the ones id slap right on sight are Alistair and the Steiner dude
ohmygod no, theyre all pure!! probably yurio bc that kid needs to love himself (but id immediately hug him right after)
Three favorite characters (these are in order of preference):
sherlock & john (one answer), mrs hudson, WIGGINS
holly, rachel, and fay (elizabeth and jude too)
the obvious trio: yuri, victor and yurio
A character you liked at first but not so much anymore:
mary lmao
alistair. i was a little suspicious of him but i liked him at the beginning bc he was cute and innocent. i HATE him now obviously
i love them all.. theres not a single one i dislike
A character you did not like at first, but they’ve grown on you:
ahahah mycroft
 uh georgia
christopher and JJ (but now i love them both so much)
