i was going through some of my helia posts (naturally <3) and i saw this older ask someone sent about bloom and helia bonding over their family being in the company of light and initially when i answered that i didn't really think they would bond over it... but thinking about it longer,,, i actually think they could.
i was mostly thinking about how helia wouldn't care that much, considering saladin is still alive, and how his general "don't tell anyone about anything" might make his answers kinda... unsatisfactory for bloom. but like..... i feel like he would actually be really happy meeting someone whose family was also Super Important (even more for her) and would be okay with telling her whatever she wanted to know.
faragonda was also in the company of light but she really doesn't tell bloom much and there's still a level of teacher vs student that bloom has trouble crossing. she wants to know more but it's hard to ask. she would be so excited after finding out that helia is related to saladin and could answer some of her questions!! he also's just a lot more approachable and i think he'd be more chill about answering things compared to people like faragonda or sky.
idk... i am thinking.

As @staff further refine the polls while they're rolling them out (still haven't gotten mine sadly), here's a suggestion of mine: Polls with a ten year time limit.
As of right now, it's impossible for polls to turn into long-running legendary posts. You can try, sure (see the bug race), but it's a week and then it's locked, fixed, done, and all that's left is for people to reminisce about that time there was a poll.
On the other hand, if a ten year poll gets popular, it can become part of Tumblr lore while still being updated. People can write passionate appeals for their vote and fight in the notes. Others can make graphs to show how the poll's majorities shift with each different US president or Taylor Swift album. People can make memes about "remember 2025, when option 3 was in the lead? That was a crazy time".
Why ten years, though, instead of a hundred or just no time limit? Because that way, the end becomes an event. People who voted in the poll when it was just a few hours old can watch the final countdown together, and there's a new point in Tumblr history: That day when we finally all agreed on the best option, and presumably also some important political stuff happened.
Now, granted, most ten year polls would never reach this level of notoriety. But it only takes a few polls like this to be worthwhile. Maybe this shouldn't be an option for users to select, but something the Tumblr website grants/pushes on you at random?
So, yeah. Ten year polls. They should be a thing.

i just remembered something that occurred some years ago - i had just moved blogs and for whatever reason i was actually getting traction and followers left to right ( still a mystery to this day as to why but i digress ) and one of these followers was an animanga blog, a really cool one at that and that i would’ve loved to write with if it wasnt for the fact that they were minors ( and i’ve always had this minors dni rule of thumb ). anyway, i was checking each one of the followers and reading their rules before deciding to follow or not when an ask popped in ( i didn’t allow messages at the time from blogs i wasnt following back ) saying that they loved my blog and would’ve loved to write with me but since they were minor and hadn’t read my rules before following and apologised for the mishap - fyi they did not have it in their blog whether or not they were minor, so i didn’t follow them back right away bc of that, and tbh to this day that was the nicest thing a fellow player did to me. thank you pikachu icon person, if you’re still out there, it was really nice of you to lmk!!

He still checks up on you regularly, making sure you're living comfortably and in peace. He tells you that you can count on him with anything you may need; you need someone to pick you up, grocery shopping, repairs, absolutely anything. He's just one call away.
He gives you some information and phone numbers; who to call in case something happens when he's on deployment. He constantly worries for your safety. He has installed a security system in your home and taught you how it works.
If you have kids, he picks them up three times a week and takes them hiking and teaches them about nature and tips on how to survive there, if they're old enough. But if they're younger, they go to amusement parks or spend the day at his home with coloring books (Simon's face and sleeve tattoos) and play-fighting. Then he brings them back to you with permanent marker stains on his face and glitter all over him as you try to stifle a laugh.
His heart shatters if he hears that you're with someone else, but he maintains a calm and collected exterior so as not to upset you, also he knows that it's not his place to mention his opinion. So he tries to pick up the pieces alone again and again...
He's always a shoulder to cry on if you ever need one. Or if a situation makes you nervous and you need someone by your side, he's always there for you. He takes you to all your doctor appointments if you ask him and stays with you until it's finished. If anyone ever tries anything with you or disrespects you, they answer to him.
He always opens the doors for you and helps you with the stuff on the top shelves. And if you both reach for something at the same time, your hands touching, his touch lingers, eyes burning with longing and deep sorrow as he glances at you.
He kept all the photos you sent him when he was gone on deployments. He palms his aching throbbing cock through his sweatpants as he looks at your dirty photos through half-lidded eyes. The photos which you both took together, or you took alone while touching your pretty pussy which was weeping for his thick veiny cock.
He jerks off to the thought of your soft lovely lips wrapped around his length or your tight warm walls engulfing him, your moaned-out name falling from his lips as he spills his warm sticky cum in his palm.
He feels you're so incredibly close, yet so devastatingly far. Several times, he came close to saying that he still loves you only to back out at the last moment.
He spends most of his nights reminiscing all his memories of you and shedding tears of despair as he stares at your wedding photos and listens to your voicemails over and over again with a half-empty bottle of whiskey in hand, thinking of what could have been.
comments/reblogs are greatly appreciated ♥
