#perhaps inevitably

[cherry-bomb1985]

I feel like The Father and Hell both understand and experience love in all the worst ways.

The Father sought to create a life form that would follow and love him unconditionally. It wasn't enough that he had a great cosmic kingdom of angels who are unquestioningly loyal, no, he needed something that knew suffering and mortality and the threat of oblivion, and would still find love at the end; love for him above all else. But after numerous implied failures at that, in his desperation, he instead created the threat of eternal damnation to force them to love him in order avert that fate. Lucifer's words must have been like a splash of cold water, but by the time he realized sheer magnitude of suffering he had unintentionally set into motion, it was too late. He could not destroy Hell; he could not stop the cycle of violence.

That guilt drove him to seek a death that, from the looks of it, eluded him in spite of the hollowness consuming him. And now he is... somewhere, helpless to stop his experiments from consuming one another and themselves in a glorious show of blood and violence.

And then there's Hell itself, who seems to recognize love as an act of violence and cruelty. It is something that derives joy only from the suffering of other living creatures. God gave it so many toys to hurt and break and reform, and Mankind gave it new ones. Why would it understand love as anything but? It gave Minos a facsimile of the son he is most ashamed of, and delighted when he cast it, once more, into a labyrinth. Gabriel flattened all the souls within it's confines beneath his heel and gave those that did bend false hopes.

Now there's V1, tearing its way through the remaining layers and creating a spectacle of violence like nothing Hell has ever witnessed before. How could it not love them all for all the entertainment they've provided?

But deep within its recesses, hidden away from the eyes of Heaven, there was a Gutterman. A machine built for war, who eventually came to love that which it gave it life at the cost of their own. Enough to give the human welded within their coffin the mercy that both Heaven and Hell had denied them; enough to write a single love letter to them, even knowing that it would never be read by its intended recipient.

So, as things turn out, you /can/ teach a machine to love. And they will understand and experience it more sincerely than God or Hell ever could.

#ULTRAKILL #ULTRAKILL spoilers #Mind you this is all just speculation #We still don't know if Hell is aware that the machines will inevitably try to consume it too once the souls and demons run dry #and if it is then whether or not it has a plan to stop that from happening or if it actually /wants/ to be destroyed #or perhaps--like Father like creation--it simply thinks it /cannot/ be destroyed #and we certainly still don't know where God fucked off to after his suicide attempt or why #If he left to seek the end of his days elsewhere #Or--as the first testament might imply--if he's got a new angle #Sorry 7-S got my brain buzzing and there's not a whole lot of game left to get the answers to those particular questions #If they are intended to be answered at all or simply left unknown by the blank slate boomer shooter protagonist #through which we all experience this wild ride #Anyways not a lot of this fandom talks about the Testaments effectively being God's vent posts #and I find both amusement and mild horror at their very existence

Okay, just, before tonight... Can we accept that, given currently at a draw with both teams actually having been trying recently, blue and red are actually somewhat balanced, have both done crimes, and no matter who wins its nobody's fault what the consequences are except the Eye because that fucker has never given anyone sufficient info to work with?

#qsmp #bbh and phil's quick chat about how hopefully given they're drawing after the last “proper” day #the eye will consider neither of them to have lost #and therefore maybe they can only take some eggs home but the others won't /die/ #because tiebreak is probably inevitable but they can hope #seems overly hopeful but perhaps #also while I had to sleep and hit post limit a while before then #I do love how after the events everyone no matter the team just goes and hangs for a bit #which honestly? given that I doubt much will actually change back on island #because as soon as points aren't being scored they're just chilling together anyway

goodnight 3ds servers ♡ i love you forever

#‎‎ ✦ #successfully wonder traded off all my pokemon so they wont be in boxes forever :') #i dont know why it's really disheartening to see them go even though it was inevitable #a lot of my x and y experience is tied to wonder trading so perhaps it's that #something bittersweet about ending it on that note i suppose #i hope theyre all in good homes wherever they are 🥺

[heartpascal]

just read through a half written fic from back in APRIL???? made myself kinda sad tbh. and goddamn why did i not finish this!!!!!

one of my fav lines from it: He was terrified, suddenly, that you would die down there, alone, whilst he was upstairs looking for the very thing that might just save your life.

dare i try to continue it? it was a request too oml 😭

#heartpascal says #not sure where exactly i was going with this #but am i ever #aka izzy never plans fics EVER #(maybe i should start?? make my life easier when i inevitably stop writing these fics and wanna pick them up months later??) #hmmm #something to think about perhaps

SKYSTAR DOES WHAT TO ARC

Man send this guy to cat hell let his dark forest edition be one eye eating him

HE MAULS HIM

Arc goes into his territory and Skystar RIPS! THAT! BOY! UP!!!

And then later Skystar uses the will of StarClan to justify his invasion of RiverClan, which BTW is 10000% consistent with A Forest Divided (a post redemption arc book) where he completely misinterprets Fluttering Bird in a way that would get him more power.

So if you just ignore the fact they tried to write him as being so scared :( he doesn't know what he's doing :( for the 400th time, it totally tracks. That's Skystar. That's who he is.

#For the record I'm like ACTUALLY laughing #This is DELIGHTFULLY awful I couldn't have asked for better #Anyone who is here who thinks I'm not having the time of my little impish life rest assured #I feel like I'm a small plover or perhaps a seagull nestled on the syracruse shoreline #and I just watched Archimedes fire a death ray incinerator blast at a roman ship #the flames reflected in my tiny black eyes #Verily I am witnessing a destruction beyond anything my little seagull mind could comprehend #but i am inherently a being of chaos and it nourishes me to be close to the divine glow of death and terror #It is Cathartic to watch more content of the arc I hate most be SO bad #This is the love that only a true hater can feel #Riverstar is the only cat I really TOTALLY like in DOTC but I knew this would happen. #I am the one true DOTC Understander. #And it was inevitable that they would do this to him. it was never good on purpose. #riverstar's home spoilers #So while on one hand there is a disappointment I feel. It's tempered by the deep knowledge that it was always meant to end this way #A tragedy in real life.

life sucks, have some smut.

Title: Too Much of a Good Thing (No Such Thing) Summary: You and Kakashi spend a protracted morning in bed. Word Count: 2,015 Warnings: 18+ only, NSFW, fem!reader, edging/overstimulation, biting/marking, vaginal fingering, masturbation, vaginal sex, unprotected sex, established relationship .

Your thighs twitch and tremble, slick and sticky as they clench inward and you whine.  ”Kakashi.”  His name comes out breathy and high-pitched, a long-suffering whisper.

He’s teasing you; you know he is because you can feel his smirk against your collarbone where he’s tucked his face, occupied himself with suckling against the tender skin of your neck to distract you from the futility of your constantly building—but never quite achieved—orgasm.

You’re sure the skin is bruised already; certain it will blossom an even bolder shade by the time Kakashi finishes his work.

After chapter six, I swore off killing any deer because I was afraid it could be Arthur.

That's what this game does to you and it's fascinating, or maybe I'm just superstitious :')

#much of my culture involves a lot of belief in animals and how we are all connected #especially in nature #so perhaps I have too much respect to honour a game #but the animal ties and such are so strong in the game that it's inevitable I guess #you feel it deep in your heart #your core #is it a game mechanic for deer to cross John's path so often? because I find it happens so much more after arthur died #oh man #mick squeaks #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2 #red dead redemption 2 spoilers #arthur morgan

Ahshhshdhdhdba few weeks ago I was fighting (silly and illogical) feelings of being a lil bummed bc a guy I was friends with and had a huge crush on in highschool recently had a kid with his ~perfect petite super feminine good Catholic~ wife and like. I haven't been in highschool for a decade. This is fine. I know it's silly to be even slightly upset and I'm much happier with the person I am now than who I was then and you couldn't PAY me enough to go back to that.

That being said. He just started unironically sharing b*n sh*piro stuff on insta so like lmaoooo fuckin dodged a bullet there i guess

#/dabs/ #the duality of fran #ACTUALLY MAYBE THE WHOLE REALLY UGLY HURTFUL FALLING OUT WITH MY HIGHSCHOOL FRIENDS WAS GOOD #like ok no ot wasnt good #but in the sense of. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF THEM. are now Like That. or married to ppl Like That #and I'm out here being like. hey what about praxis and kindness and the goodness at the truth of Christianity #and not all ur bullshit. like fuck off man #perhaps!!! this was inevitable #i shouldnt paint with too broad a brush #there are a few who are still not insane #afaik at least #but the core group is uh. well. uhhhh. sure is smthn

Help I am rewatching Ninjago with my roommate and I have been catapulted directly back into the fandom. mmmrrrghh legos

#perhaps i will draw the silly little pajama people. or who knows perhaps it will inspire me to finally sit down and Write Things!!! #hmm thinking about it. making a ninjago rewrite would probably be fun. but also i should probably wait until i rewatch the seasons i have #watched and catch up on the seasons that i have not seen #ninjago was my first ever fandom and it was inevitable that i would someday fall back into it LMAO. i have been staying up reading fanfics #like i have not really done for a LONG while. and they are giving me!!! so many ideas!!!!!!!!! #i have to learn how to draw people so i can draw these goofy fucks #ANYWAYS #this is borkwolf and it is 7:14 am. i am going to bed now :] #bork borking into the void #ninjago

I'd love to know more about your thoughts on 'The Star Beast'!!!

It's kinda hard to give more in-depth thoughts because I just... had a great time? It was a very solid episode that accomplished exactly what it set out to do. Not perfect, sure, and not on the level of something like Midnight or Vincent and the Doctor, but that was never what it was trying to be.

I got more enjoyment analysing the previous era critically than I did from the stories themselves, so I usually had more to say, but here it's the opposite. It was just good fun Doctor Who.

#perhaps I'll have more thoughts next week #or when RTD inevitably does something to piss me off (I say this affectionately but a lot of his DW takes I don't actually agree with) #so we'll see! #anyway if I want to throw out something controversial uhh so far 14 > 10 #Replies #goldheartedchaoticdisaster #Ranger shut up about Doctor Who

“Shall I teach you a trick? The way we’re lying now, I used to lie like this when I was little. I used to climb in through that window the night before I was going to play a game, but you mustn’t tell the caretaker!” Alicia nods and promises. “Then what?” she wonders. “Then I would lie here and look up at the roof and think, ‘Now I’m alone in the world.’ I sort of memorized the silence. Because I’ve never been scared when I’m alone, only among other people.” “Me too.” Benji hates the fact that the child knows exactly how that feels. She’s too young for that. But he tells it like it is: “No one can hurt you when you’re alone.”

#the winners #beartown #benji ovich #he's so sweet with children #sentence by sentence towards the inevitable end #maybe perhaps just before i get to THAT part i'll be magically transferred to a reality where benji will have his happy ending #eff you backman

Conflicted because on hand I really like the trope of "fate is a lie, our choices are what creates the world" but on the other "It was always inevitable, that's just how it was written" is such a wonderfully angsty trope I can't help but love it. What am I supposed to choose.

#writing tropes #Writing #Tropes #doomed by the narrative #Vs #Doomed by yourself #They both scratch such specific itches #“it was always going to end up like this” is good because it speaks of inevitability #Things outside of your control clashing in a way that made it so there was no alternative outcome #While “we are the sum of our choices” speaks about actively making bad choices when you had the opportunity not to #Perhaps they were the best choices at the time #But you still chose to do things the way that you did. #As you can see reading Worm is really affecting me. I'm about to start chapter 30 #Wish me luck #Worm #Worm parahumans #Worm web serial #wormblr

Why do you like Jason Todd so much? (I like him too! Just wondering your reasons)

My favorite fictional character of all time is Sophocles' Electra. Being a Jason Todd girlie is simply in my blood.

#there's just something about dying for/being haunted by the family curse (curse of the house of wayne/house of atreus) and then #embracing it to try to end the cycle. the words i could write about electra embracing the kinkilling/jason embracing the #urge that has haunted bruce his whole life both with the intent to put an end to things #bruce WANTS to kill which is why he won't let himself but jason's been on the other side (death) and knows it's not that simple #then there's the whole being raised by a parent whose love is conditional. and what inevitably comes from that. i relate <3 #perhaps not to the point of murder but who can say #anyways. also he's just fun and i love zombies #yes SOPHOCLES' electra i love aeschylus despite his hard on for athens but sophocles really gave my girl the spotlight she deserved

Well it does seem I am shadowbanned, I no longer show up in any tags + my blog is unsearchable now. I sent a support ticket, but who knows if that'll do anything. If it doesn't look like it's gonna get fixed, ig I finally got that excuse to remake like I've wanted to since 2014 :P

#this was perhaps inevitable #if so rip 11k followers I'd be shocked to even have 2k after -_- #ten years on this blog like literally last month

[disease]

it appears i’ve grown emotionally numb to any fulfillment as a potential result by participating in social media.

#aside from the connections formed #perhaps it’s inevitable #g

[utilitycaster]

We're all permitted our preferred themes but god it bores me when people are like "I don't like stories about hubris or death" specifically. Like oh my, look who can't find anything to enjoy in two of the most prominent recurring themes in all of literature, oral tradition, and drama since antiquity because of their inherent universality.

#i'd say watch media for preschoolers but like #media for preschoolers honestly has a very strong theme of hubris and occasionally covers such topics as death #perhaps because even if you are looking for escapism the inevitability of death cannot be escaped #there's a really good onion article about this actually. anyway.
