ugggghhh I love your writing! your style and just voice are outstanding!

could you write something with Jamie and a professional footballer (female reader) who are dating (but no one knows) and they are doing a PR thing for England or some ad campaign? And they have to do silly things and show how much they know about each other (like they have known each other since they were in school and have been friends for a while) but then Keeley catches on or something. Sorry if this doesn't make sense, but essentially it is Jamie and a professional footballer (female reader) relationship, thank you! <3

✌️😗

you’re a mansion with a view

There’s an insistent knocking on the door. It’s who-the-fuck-knows o’clock Jamie has been inside all day, lights off and dealing with a wicked hangover. The pounding on the door syncs up with the pounding in his head, and he Jamie shuffles to open it so the person on the other side can shut up.

He opens it to find you, mid-knock.

“Put a shirt on, Tartt,” you say as you push past him, grocery bag in hand. Jamie looks down. He’s just in his trousers, and for once he’s grateful that it isn’t the other way around.

“Fucking hell, Killer,” he groans. “Shouldn’t you be at training?”

You shake your head, ignoring the fact that he used your football nickname as opposed to your actual name. “Nope. It’s five. Training’s done for the day.”

Jamie follows you to his kitchen. Why you’re walking around like you own the place, he has no idea.

“What the fuck are you doing here?” he asks. “And how do you know where all my stuff is?”

You tap your head. “Our houses have the same layout. I can see yours from across the street, and noticed you haven’t been out in like, a week. That’s a record for you.”

Jamie rubs his face. “Fucking hell,” he says again. “So why are you here?”

You turn around from the fridge. “Figured you haven’t had a decent meal besides vanilla vodka.” You make a face. “Disgusting. Just because you’re not playing football doesn’t mean you can neglect nutrition, Tartt.”

“I ain’t neglecting my nutrition,” he replies. “Just…” he trails off.

You smirk. “Uh huh, that’s what I thought. The great Jamie Tartt, drowning his sorrows in vanilla vodka and becoming a couch potato. You haven’t even had any women ‘round to numb the sting. That’s new.”

You flip on a light to which Jamie groans. You flip it off. “So are you going to put on a shirt, or..?”

“Killer,” Jamie says for the third time, “the fuck are you doing in my house?”

You pretend to be digging in the grocery bag so you don’t have to look at his face.

“Saw your interview,” you reply as nonchalantly as possible. “Thought you might need someone to make sure you haven’t, I don’t know, died.”

Jamie knocks his head against the wall. “Has everyone fucking seen that?”

You shrug. “Personally, I liked it a lot better than your season of Lust Conquers All. Lot more feeling in that one interview than the whole show, if you ask me.”

“So you saw that,” Jamie comments. This is far too many words for the headache he has.

“Yup.”

“And you’re still here.”

“Uh huh.”

Jamie is at a loss for words. Everyone else has left him because of that fucking tv show, where he acted like the worst version of himself and didn’t even fucking win.

Doesn’t make sense that you, a midfielder from some women’s FC, would be in his house pulling out real food and making sure he’s alright.

For a moment, Jamie feels bad that he can’t remember what team you play for.

He thinks that this goes beyond neighborly duties. Sure, you live across the street from him and you’ve seen each other at various events, but this is probably the first real conversation you’ve ever had. He has no idea what to make of it.

He asks, “Why do you care?” then immediately cringes at the harsh tone of his voice.

You slam the fridge door harder than you anticipate, making you both jump.

“Because,” you say, then you sigh.

“Footballer life off the pitch sucks sometimes. I wish someone had checked on me.”

“I ain’t a footballer,” Jamie points out, vaguely remembering something about your name in some less-than-friendly headline.

You roll your eyes. “Whatever you say, Tartt.”

—

Five months later, you’re at some random football pitch in your full kit and far more makeup than you’d wear to a match.

Some magazine is doing some profile on different footballers, taking photos with different men and women from all kinds of teams together. You’re not sure why you, a midfielder, are here with Tartt, a striker.

You’re not complaining.

“Oi, Tartt,” you call, “how does it feel to be scored on by a girl?”

(The photographer wanted some action shots of you and Jamie playing 1 v 1.)

Jamie scoffs. “My masculinity ain’t fragile, Killer. Just lucky you didn’t break any of my bones.” He says the words carefully, as if they’re unfamiliar to his tongue and he wants to get them just right.

“You know I have a name, right?” you ask, breathing hard. You’ve dribbled the ball back to Jamie and are standing practically forehead to forehead. “Like, a real actual name that you’re allowed to use?”

Jamie grins and drops his voice to a near-whisper, “Oh I know how to use your name, love.”

You shiver, trapped in his gaze for a minute.

The spell is broken as the photographer shouts, “Alright loves, let’s stage some of you two together.”

You both turn to jog to the sidelines, where she begins posing you.

“Wow,” she remarks, “you two have great chemistry. Usually I have to tell you footballers to act like you like each other.”

Jamie grins and knocks his shoulder into yours. “Hear that, Killer?” he asks, “She thinks we have good chemistry.”

You roll your eyes and feign annoyance. “Be professional, Tartt.”

The photographer asks, “How long have you known each other?”

You and Jamie say, “Two years,” in perfect unison.

“My goodness,” she laughs, “you two are just in sync today! How’d you meet?” You say, “we’re neighbors,” at the same time Jamie says, “at a party.”

You both look at each other. “We met because we live across the street from each other,” you say.

Jamie shakes his head, “No, we met a week before you moved in at a party.”

“What party?” you ask. “Pretty sure I would’ve remembered meeting you.”

“Nah,” Jamie replies, “You were too busy getting sloshed with your teammates while they all hit on Keeley.”

You scrunch your nose. “Was I sloshed?”

“Yep,” Jamie says. “Properly. It was the end of the season, so makes sense.”

“Weird,” you reply. “My first memory of you is when you tried to break into my house because you were too busy snogging this model to figure out you were on the wrong side of the street.”

“Oi, it could happen to anyone!” Jamie says defensively.

“Sure,” you laugh. “Happens to me all the time.”

You reach out to steal the football that’s tucked under Jamie’s arm, but he’s too quick for you.

“Give it!” you say, still laughing.

He holds it above your head. “Give what?” he asks innocently. “Don’t know what you’re talking about.”

You’re jumping and trying to pull his arm down to where you can reach and are almost successful when he tosses it to his other hand.

“No fair!” you cry, “You’re taller than me!”

Jamie grins. “Oh, you want the football then? Maybe try asking nicely.”

You still. “Jamie,” you begin, “could you please give me the football?”

He’s still holding it high above you as he considers. “Hm.” He pretends to think for a moment. “No.” He breaks away from you and kicks it into the goal across the field.

“You can have it now,” he says when he returns. You’re trying so hard to be mad at him, but he has that silly little grin he gets when he’s trying to make you laugh and you just can’t fake a frown.

“Screw you, Tartt,” you laugh.

Jamie raises an eyebrow and opens his mouth to reply when he’s cut off by the photographer.

“You two get along really well,” she says. “I think you’d be cute together.”

You blush and Jamie says, “I fucking hope so. She’s my girlfriend. Oi, d’you want a picture of us kissing?”

“No she doesn’t,” you say.

“Yes she does,” Jamie says. “We’re fucking adorable, babe. Football’s power couple. Behind Posh and Becks, of course,” he says as an afterthought.

“Fine,” you say, “One. Then I’m getting that football and your ass is grass, Tartt.”

Jamie grins. “Fine by me, love.”

He leans in to kiss you but you pull away at the last second, sprinting toward the football still under the goalposts. Did he really think you were going to play fair?

The Schizoid Reality Wall; or, Welcome to the Void

This is a concept I first saw explained by SchizoidAngst on youtube (pretty relatable content in case yall tumblr zoids havent discovered him yet) but I've wanted to write this down in my own words, the way I conceptualize it, so I did that. Maybe theres something useful here for someone else, so I'm sharing.

Obligatory I'm not a psychologist, yada yada

As the “true” self in schizoids becomes separate from the rest of the psyche, (in some cases masked with a false persona as a form of compromise with the external world, ie. “secret” schizoids), it is turned away from the concrete physical world and towards the abstract. This more or less means it’s actually possible for schizoids to feel deeply intimate connections comfortably, if these connections are formed on higher levels of abstraction – ie. abstraction itself becomes a vehicle for connection. This also leads to what Akhtar has named ‘idiosyncratic thinking’, or odd thinking.

Example of concrete vs. abstract: I tell Bob a personal opinion about something, and Bob has a bad reaction to it, tells me I’m a disgusting person, and refuses to talk to me further. A neurotypical person would be upset about the immediate interpersonal reality of that situation – ‘oh no, Bob thinks I’m a disgusting person.’ Schizoids, if they get upset at all, instead tend to get upset because the situation reminded them of an abstract phenomenon which they have a hard time dealing with – ‘oh no, some people take opinions seriously to the point that they are willing to cut others out of their life instead of coming to some sort of mutual understanding or compromise, which gets in the way of problem-solving or beneficial discourse, something that should be everybody’s primary concern.’ Out there? Yeah, but that's kind of the point.

Neurotypical signals of affection lose meaning and feel empty because they can’t connect to the repressed/abstract self. If a consistent demand is put on the schizoid to meet what they see as superficial expressions of affection, they can get feelings of being forced to play a role which is psychologically demanding to keep up with yet yields next to no emotional rewards and satisfies none of their actual needs.

Adding to this, when schizoids then attempt to communicate their own needs or to express abstract, existential feelings, they’re more often than not met with misunderstanding, ridicule, neglect, and dismissal. The schizoid’s thinking is treated as being too abstract to have any real bearing on reality, whereas to the schizoid themself sees it as integral to reality. This happens with family, friends, coworkers, partners, as well as medical professionals/psychologists – it is a near universal phenomenon.

This culminates in the schizoid reality wall – the core difficulty in actually connecting to other people.

Essentially, the feeling for schizoids is that they often try to meet others on the terms of those others, ie. through concrete and grounded conversations, but that nobody does or even tries to do the same for them. This leads to feelings of futility, hopelessness, animosity, and a stronger need and desire to self-isolate.

You’re reminded of that barrier [all the time]. You’re reminded of the reality of your situation, which is: They can’t hear me. And I can’t hear them. And I’m trying to hear them, and I’m trying to listen – but no one is trying to listen to me. So why should I keep trying? What purpose does it serve? [...] It's not magical thinking that's occuring here, it's well-thought-out thinking that is being placed against a backdrop of a world that is telling you, 'No. No, that thinking is not the right thinking.'

- from this

Which is where we reach the Void.

#kinda curious if other tumblr zoids have thoughts on this #does it strike a nerve does it not #lemme know. cause i felt a whole ass entire actual emotion seeing angsts vid lol #he gets it and thats rare #szpd #actuallyszpd #mine

Past/Current/Next WIP Tag Game

Thanks to the lovely @kaylinalexanderbooks for the tag!

Rules: share a past work-in-progress, your current work-in-progress, and the work-in-progress you want to work on next.

Past

I have so many abandoned WIPs lol. The one that got the most development though was a science fiction series titled The Earths Beyond. Essentially, the daughter of a NASA employee who’s on an internship discovers this strange hidden file on a computer while helping clean up. The file, titled The Earths Beyond, contained information on mission logs from centuries’ past of these six planets that colonies were founded on. After centuries, the humans on each planet adapted to their environments and created their own societies. Confused as to why the government would hide such a feat from the public for centuries, our protagonist with a band of friends would hijack the next planned mission and steal a spacecraft to go find these worlds at war thanks to neglect. And then be on the run from the U.S. government.

I only got to part of the world building stage for TEB, but I’ve considered touching it again.

Current

My current project that has most of my attention is of course The American Icarus. Following the life of Alexander Hamilton, but written in the style of a posthumous memoir. I’ve spent absolutely forever writing just book one (of five somehow), but so far I’m making steady progress. Super excited to tackle Hamilton’s time as a New York artillery captain. Even if most of the fun will be writing things going boom and some bloodshed sprinkled with badassary.

To be completely honest, I don’t know what’s next after TAI. I do have that Aaron Burr post-duel idea, and my Hamilton Quasi-War alternate history idea (and even more Hamilton adjacent ideas similarly styled to TAI), but at the moment with how taxing TAI is proving to be with the amount of research I’m doing, I’d like to take a break from something rooted in lots of real history. So probably something akin to my fantasy/alternate history novel, Ink of Destruction, that’s less serious with itself while still unique and chaotic. I’d love to mess with time travel for instance, but right now I can’t figure out how I would put a fresh spin on it and not just write another time travel story. A common feature among all my projects is proving to be that history plays a notable role though, and honestly this is very fitting.

Leaving this as an open tag for anyone who wants to play!

Good Omen 2 Spoilers

Needless to say I’m devastated, obviously. The season was amazing, the writing, the acting, everything, and I was SO sure it was going to end with a drunken breakfast at the Ritz like Crowley. I was SO SURE they were going to kiss and happy music would swell and it was going to be all fine and dandy.

And of course I’m heartbroken for how It turned out, of COURSE I’m devastated that Aziraphale fundamentally missed the point that Crowley doesn’t want to be an Angel again, he doesn’t want to be a demon, he wants to be AZIRAPHALE’S.

Of course I’m so fucking sad that Crowley finally was vulnerable, and it came at just the wrong moment, the wrong time, the wrong wording to convince Aziraphale heaven can’t be fixed, because the thing is, Aziraphale is still brainwashed by the idea of Good. He is SO used to heaven being unkind that the second they throw him a bone he jumps, thinks “this is a chance for things to be different!” And is completely blinded by his own need to feel like a part of something bigger that he can’t see the truth, that they are manipulative and always will be, that if he didn’t have respect before he certainly won’t now, and most importantly That CROWLEY has never treated him like that, not once.

On the other hand, for all the people who are devastated and saying that they won’t rewatch, that they’re burning the bridge of their interest in good omens, that this is queerbait, it’s NOT. That’s your prerogative to stop watching of course, but the point is this is an UNFINISHED TALE. 6 episodes couldn’t cover the story, the overarching story, and this season didn’t have what would have been essential to Crowley and Aziraphale truly ending up together.

Crowley said it himself, Aziraphale WASNT THERE when they told him to shut up and die. He doesn’t believe heaven is as bad as it is because he hasn’t witnessed the true coldness up there in so long, and he’s NORMALIZED to the neglect and abuse he faces up there in a way many abused people are. He thinks that one bone is enough, that he can fix them, and he always would have felt that, which is why He NEEDS a personal arc where he realizes this on his own and stands up for himself AGAINST HEAVEN. THIS is his opportunity to do that. THAT is why the writers made him go back, he needs to know for himself before he can accept it.

THATS why Neil Gaiman is saying on his blog that he needs a season 3 to complete the arc. The writing timing of this falling out is intentional to keep the show alive to get to that point. If this tragic moment was left for Season 3 Ep 1 and they dined at the ritz like normal for Season 2 finale, there wouldn’t be any development we need for Aziraphale, and more importantly, if would feel like there was no need for a season 3. This tension is the writing worlds way of PRESERVING this show, and it’s frustrating yes, but that’s how things get renewed, that’s how Aziraphale gets the arc he needs, that’s how we get happy endgame Aziracrow, that’s how you rev up anticipation for the Second Coming, THATS how you write a story.

Also, it’s not queerbait. It never has been. They’ve always been in love, not even TALKING about the kiss here but about their complete trust in each other, their inside jokes, the DANCE SCENE, Crowley comforting Aziraphale after he lied to heaven. The symbolism between them and Maggie and Nina. (Nina also being in an abusive relationship like Aziraphale with heaven and needing TIME TO PROCESS before getting with Maggie, who will wait for her is totally mirroring the arc Aziraphale needs to have btw. Abused people don’t often just fall into healthy new relationships while still being entangled in their old ones mentally). My point is that if your argument for hating the ending is this was pulling the rug out from under queer fan base, think about all the creators who shoe in a gay relationship, kiss at the last second on the shows last episode, think about all the shows where subtext had to be enough, or where showrunners weren’t brave or allowed enough to make a relationship canon until the last second. This is the MIDDLE of the show (if everything goes well with Amazon which is out of Neil’s control). This has been explicit from the creators mouth and frankly the show itself for ages, even without a kiss. This is not queerbait, and sometimes relationships need space to be able to come back together in a truly fulfilled way, even queer ones.

Anyway that’s my rant, I have more, per usual, but this post is already long

So overall thoughts. Damn what a painful chapter. It dragged a lot to the surface. There’s a lot of shifting. The toxicity and co-dependency is really starting to rear it’s head. Someone save these boys it not healthy.

I’m not sure how to feel about Tommy right now. Like as a character he’s a lot of fun to analyse. He’s beautifully morally complex and a little fucked up. Probably the most fucked up Tommy of yours I’ve read. Which is starting to make me worried. I’m not sure if Wilbur needed to be pushed as far as Tommy pushed him this chapter. Definitely not as soon. Then again who knows when she might make progress otherwise. It’s the age-old struggle of making progress, not how you are supposed to do it to be healthy, but in a way that somehow still seems to work. Though there will be consequences.

Wilbur is a lot of fun too. I really need to start paying more attention to the name shifts because I keep missing most of them on my first read. Also, I’m very much neglecting analysis the bird metaphor, but I do love it. It’s a very good representation of Wilbur’s emotions as something he doesn’t really control but can’t fully repress. It’s essentially his subconscious or inner self screaming at it. It’s ‘Wilbur’ trying to communicate and get out. It’s a Phoenix getting stoked to live again and trying to rise from its own ashes. Reawakening the embers after all these years.

Once more question, cuz I just realised I forgot to put it in the actual ask. Did Wilbur realise Tommy’s tendency to make decisions for other people beforehand or was it more the pieces snapping into place because of how hard Tommy was pushing him?

That is all, for now. Banger chapter as always, Bee. I had a blast, and a decent chunk of energy and free time this time around (as you can tell by my truckload of asks). Have a great day everyone! I’m going to bed.

(10/10)

-🌲

honestly I think glass!tommy might be my favorite iteration of tommy i've written yet (at least in wilbur pov fics) precisely bc of how fucked up he is. he's so flawed and it's so fun to dig into. one of my favorite character traits of c!tommy that I don't think gets explored in c!crime often enough is how possessive he is of c!wilbur. so I'm having a really fun time diving into the ugly aspects of that with glass.

would wilbur have gotten to that point on his own? possibly. but ever since tommy forcibly began calling wilbur by his name, he set up a dynamic between them where he pushes and wilbur will listen, even if he doesn't want to. wilbur is getting to a point where he doesn't know how to make progress on his own without tommy pushing him forward, and that's DEFINITELY not healthy. but glass isn't about healthy relationships lmao

the bird is such a fun metaphor tool for me to write with. it's hard though because I'm trying not to overuse it, but also how tf else am I supposed to describe wilbur's emotions when he can't accept them as his own? it's a balancing act for sure

I'd say wilbur was somewhat aware of tommy's tendency to make choices for other people before, but what really snapped it into focus was jack actually. when he saw it through the lens of tommy doing that to someone else instead of just doing it to him, he was finally able to recognize it and realize how often tommy's done that to him as well.

ty for your thoughts as always spruce!! sorry i was so late answering this and ik you've already sent me one ask about ch 17 so I can't wait to go read that :)

Hi! Same anon here. Sorry I asked you to judged someone's au without their permission. Hope you're having a great month! Also, can you explain to me what makes Shinjuro tick? I know he had depression and an existential crisis after his wife died, he became a neglectful and verbally abusive father after that for 10 years, and he only started to turn around after Kyojuro died, but i can't string them together into something coherent. Could you explain to me why he's like this, and makes him him?

Your other ask:

Hello! I love your posts about Kyojuro and the Rengoku family. Since we're on that, you are the only blog I've read that doesn’t just page Shinjuro as an abusive father and leave it off as that. Would you explain to me about this character in all the ways you can? And does he really think Kyo has no talent, or is he just projecting his own issues? What is Senjuro to him? Hope you're having a good month!

So I’m going to post these two questions together and just answer them in one shot.

Its okay, I accept your apology and thank you for respecting my refusal to judge someone’s AU. I am doing all right, I hope you are too! Thank you for loving my posts I’m really glad you enjoy them! Lol yes, I am the Rengoku Family Defense Lawyer and in particular Shinjuro.

There is a whole whole lot that can be said about Shinjuro so first I’m going to answer the questions that are most specific. Everything with the Rengoku family is fairly complicated which is honestly fun and fascinating to me haha.

Does Shinjuro really think Kyojuro has no talent, or is he projecting his own issues?

Shinjuro is projecting his own issues, and essentially a family issue that has been passed down along with the Flame Breathing style. It started with the Rengoku Ancestor losing confidence once he heard about the 13th form and realizing that he couldn’t perform that move--the move you HAVE TO DO to defeat Muzan.

“The Flame Hashira, who was my ancestor, lost confidence.” This raises its own question, why would the Flame Hashira lose confidence hearing about a Sun Breathing move when he’s the Flame Breathing Hashira? Because he had hoped to master and carry on the Sun Breathing legacy for Yoriichi. Flame Breathing is the closest to Sun Breathing, the Rengoku Ancestor and Yoriichi were very close, and Ancestor Rengoku knew about what happened to Uta and Yoriichi’s baby, so he knew there was currently no way for the Sun Breathing to be passed down. He perhaps hoped to be able to master it since their Breathing styles were so close, and thus its one of the reasons he kept such incredibly detailed records. That way somebody would be able to read the records and maybe eventually do it. Rengoku Ancestor lost confidence though, and its possible he discouraged his descendants from trying Sun Breathing (perhaps due to his own feelings of low confidence as well as maybe respect for his friend) and somewhere down the line those feelings got twisted into bitterness by one of his descendants and they started teaching that bitterness. The Rengoku family is incredibly talented, Shinjuro included, but because they have always compared their feats to Yoriichi’s none of them will acknowledge their talent and therefore they rely on hard work and really struggle to master their Breathing Style even though its literally made for them, mostly because they’ve gotten that worm in their ear of “Yeah Flame Breathing is good but its not Sun Breathing”. And this is the main reason Senjuro can’t master swordsmanship, he has this chip on his shoulder of inferiority inherited and taught from his family for generations, so his confidence is completely shot. He isn’t Kyojuro so he can’t just force his way through it. Shinjuro always knew that Kyojuro had talent, and he admits it when he writes Tanjiro the letter:

“Even when I stopped teaching him…He read the guide to Flame Breathing. And even with only three volumes…he made himself into a Hashira!”

Three. Volumes. By himself. Kyojuro taught himself a sword style through just reading the volumes and got good enough to become a Hashira, if that’s not talent I don’t know what is. This scene of Shinjuro admitting this to me was also a subtle indicator of him admitting that no, Kyojuro was actually talented and he was just projecting onto him. Not to mention during Kyojuro’s wake Shinjuro blaming Kyojuro for being talentless, saying that’s why he died, was easier than Shinjuro having to stop and look at himself and see that if he had still been an active participant in Kyojuro’s life he might not have died. That he actively contributed to losing Kyojuro by not being a part of his life. He admits that he was foolish and that he pulled away and is to blame for his children being alone. He does love both of his boys, and Senjuro matters a lot to him:

“I see that you and Senjuro have been corresponding for at least four months. That boy has grown so much.”

I’ve said it before but I’ll repeat, he says these things because he is paying attention to Senjuro now, because he does love him, he appreciates Tanjiro caring for his sons, and he’s proud of seeing how Senjuro has grown. “Both Kyojuro and Senjuro are wonderful boys”. This is Shinjuro saying he loves them and is proud of them.

Now as for his timeline of all this--while we don’t fully know Shinjuro’s history and every detail as to why he felt that inferiority and self-pity (no one ever mentions Shinjuro ever failing as a Hashira) we know that he had it before Ruka became sick (and based off what Ruka says to Kyojuro and how she talks, he had it even before they got married) and was most likely trying to hide it from the boys including hiding his depression over losing Ruka and his further feelings of incompetence for allowing her to die.

Kyojuro mentions how he didn’t understand how the loving passionate man he had known as a child had suddenly changed, and it’s because it wasn’t sudden. Shinjuro did what Kyojuro does, where he put on a smile and a loud presence (not as loud as Kyojuro’s but passionate enough) and burnt himself past his limits trying to act fine and hide that he was in pain and suffering. Until he couldn’t do it anymore, which is around when Kyojuro did Final Selection and his first Mission. Shinjuro was still active as the Flame Hashira but his depression and toxic thinking had already sunk in and he couldn't pretend anymore.

It ate away at him enough that he didn’t have the strength to keep putting up the facade, so he turned to drinking to try to keep going and function. Instead it turned into an addiction and just went further into his depression until he was so consumed that he turned into our grumpy, bad mouthed drunk. Also, I suspect that Shinjuro said Senjuro and Kyojuro couldn’t do it because he hoped that he would discourage them enough to stop trying so that he didn’t risk losing them. Him saying “The Flame Pillars will end with my generation”. For me is a way of saying “I don’t want you to become Hashira”. Which is a strange thing to say when your family has a legacy of being Hashira. But it makes sense when you consider that he was afraid of them dying in Demon Slaying. Ruka had passed away from an illness, something out of his control, Demon Slaying is dangerous and the boys could die in it, so he tried to discourage it.

We don’t know if he ever told Ruka about his feelings of incompetence, but she definitely knew about them and we knew that she believed he was a great Hashira. That’s why she would remind Kyojuro that his father was a great Hashira--because he was--for a long time he kept being the Flame Hashira even though he was emotionally suffering.

And it’s also why Ruka was so articulate about making sure Kyojuro knew that not only was he a strong and gentle child but that what mattered was protecting and saving people. “Do you know why it is that you were blessed with greater strength than so many others? It is so that you can protect the weak.” Shinjuro forgot that, members of his family before him, had forgotten that. Ruka wanted to make sure Kyojuro remembered the core principle, and that’s saving people. And thanks to Ruka telling him that he was able to protect and save lives, and not get trapped in his head about his weakness, because he remembered what his mother taught him and he never forgot what the true purpose for being a Hashira was.

I hope this helps!

tumblr mobile doesnt like if there’s no text here if you put in a read more. Anyway vent/reflection post

experiencing profound loneliness for a period of time as a child really latches itself into your pysche it seems ✌️

getting teased by a bunch of different people every year has its own impact obviously but getting treated like some kind of wrong weird annoying animal by all my classmates combined with being essentially forced to be alone because class sorting happened to put me and my only friend in different classes for a school year was probably the most damaging thing to have happened to me. My teacher also couldn’t be assed to stop conflict or racism in her class and let a kid yell at me for daring to show everyone the animations I made at the end of the year 👍 it was also so comical that our class was odd numbered so every time we went to PE and the PE teacher told us to find a partner, within miliseconds everyone but me had a partner which is like. If I were writing this into a story people would say it’s too on the nose

And idk w/ these circumstances it made sense I found so much escapism with wanting a relationship w/ mutual unconditional love, and it set up the circumstances in which I dated my ex and let her walk all over me and neglect me. I didn’t even cover the friend group who abandoned me in favor of people who hated me … lol. What the actual fuck. I really don’t know how to explain that it’s not like I hold a genuine grudge over everyone involved (though I can’t forgive my ex because years after we broke up she showed me how much of a manipulative person she genuinely is and reopened my trauma) but rather it’s like. I’m picking up my younger self and holding them so tight because. Damn what a fucked up thing for a child to go through. God forbid a child talk too much about pokemon in third grade (read: is autistic), guess they’ll be isolated from their peers for 3 straight years lmao

#obv i gotta unpack things with a therapist cause like. ive never rlly had the opportunity to do that #the therapist I saw at my uni was… Bad #nice woman ! i liked her ! but why did she do the majority of the talking (over me)#‘i focus on the present and not the past!’ okay uh…

Hey Sam, I recently came across the story of Brumous on Reddit and it really resonated with me. It made me think of my nephew, who's currently facing a tough time due to his parent’s bitter divorce. My sister, his mom, is working tirelessly to overcome the financial burden her abusive cheating ex-husband left her with. Despite her efforts, it's challenging for her to be as present in her son's life as she wants to be.

Last week, my nephew had a school presentation, but due to work constraints, my sister couldn't attend. Her boss threatened to let her go if she took the day off. Meanwhile, his dad, who holds a grudge against my sister for finally leaving him, is making false promises to their son out of spite. This situation breaks my heart because my nephew, despite everything, remains a kind and selfless child.

He never asks for anything, even when offered. Instead, he spends time in the toy aisle in Target but never buys anything for himself, choosing to rather buy essentials or things for his mom. It's devastating to witness a child who chooses to buy milk, oatmeal, and a rose for his mom instead of a $15 toy like every other child. With my own limitations as a full-time student barely making ends meet, I try to support them as much as I can, taking care of him whenever possible and trying to bring some joy into his life.

Despite my efforts, there's a lingering sadness in his eyes that troubles me deeply. Recently, I skipped class to attend his presentation and connected my sister via FaceTime so she could experience it too. Seeing the sheer happiness on his face was priceless, and his emotional reaction upon seeing his mom nearly moved me to tears.

As a parent yourself, I'm reaching out to ask for advice. What more can I do for my nephew? I’m scared he might feel neglected or grow up carrying resentment due to this situation he’s been put in. My sister is also struggling emotionally, feeling guilty because of the tight financial situation and not being able to give her son the life and attention he deserves. I’m scared of what his father is capable of because of what he put my sister through, but my nephew who is scared of him thinks it’s his job to help him out or fix him. Is there anything I could do better to help them out? Especially my nephew.

Gosh, this is a lot. I’m by far not the best person to ask for advice with this. I’ve never been in this situation in any of the positions.

I think the best thing you can do is just be there for them. Listen to your sister vent if she needs it. Show up for your nephew as much as you can. I think it’s wonderful what you did by skipping class to be there for him and to FaceTime your sister to boot. That was so incredibly kind of you. Maybe even try to get the rest of the family to be there as well, whether it’s your parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, what have you. Have them be there for your nephew and your sister. I don’t know about your sister, but I have a hard time asking for help. I will drive myself into the ground before I’d ask anyone for help. Sometimes, just asking for help for them is a big thing. I know I feel way more comfortable when someone offers their help than me having to ask for it. But that’s a personality thing and only you know what kind of person your sister is.

So, truly, the best thing you can do is be there. To take the video or to FaceTime when his mom can’t. Going over on a random weekend and watching a movie with your nephew and sister is big. Just showing that support is the best thing you can do, in my opinion.

Also, in my very nonprofessional opinion as I've known friends who have done this while getting divorced with kids, document everything. Save every single voicemail, text, correspondence. Document. Document. Document. Save that shit in case you need it for family court. Every time he doesn't show up, write that shit down. Anytime he's late to pick up or drop off, write that shit down. If he makes a threat to someone, write that shit down with the date, time, and what he said. If that's a regular thing, where he says terrible things and/or threatening things to her or him, record it. In person or on the phone. Look up your state's consent laws (assuming you're in the US). Some states have a two-party consent where both people have to agree to be recorded and others only have one-party consent. If he's abusive and your nephew is scared of him, that's the best thing you can do. Have evidence in court to back you up.

I'm sorry your family has to deal with this. I hope things get better soon for all of you.

Some of the metas you reblogged made me want a "careful what you wish for'ish story with Jason. Jason or Bruce missing the old version of the other and accidentally wishing for them back. Or another idea of someone complaining Jason doesn't listen to them cursing Jason to not be able to disobey them.

I apologize that it took so long to finish this (and sorry if it’s full of lukewarm takes). I ended up redoing this like 7 times because I suck at analyzing and writing in general.

Anyway I began with a comparison of how both Jason and Bruce were during Jason’s time as robin, which is dubbed the era of “good dad Bruce Wayne”, and how they’ve evolved after aditf and who they are now. The full thing is super long so I’ll leave it under the cut.

Despite respecting Jason and trusting him as a sidekick, even in the early days there’s evidence of Bruce’s inability to trust other people and his need to control the situation by withholding information. I’m referring to him neglecting to tell Jason that Two Face killed Willis in Batman #411. It’s the same logic he applies to his interactions with Jason now; the “who knows how far he would’ve taken it had he known the truth.” To be fair he also says “I was wrong” but then it’s immediately followed by the classic “I was just trying to protecting you.”

Essentially, he can’t run the risk of trusting Jason because he doesn’t believe Jason could demonstrate self control. His reasoning being because Jason is a child, which isn’t really fair even then. However, he still continues to treat Jason this way when he’s an adult.

He never does finish off with an apology and say “I’m sorry, Jay. I shouldn’t have kept that from you. You had a right to know and you wouldn’t have gotten so angry if I’d told you from the start.” The conversation ends with Jason feeling guilty for losing control of the situation, and Bruce essentially being like “it’s fine chum ☺️”. So while he was a kind to Jason and they had their wholesome moments, you could still see the early signs of his problematic behaviors that are still present to this day.

Bruce views it as a necessary evil to betray people he claims to trust (and who trust him) for the sake of the mission, and even for his personal agenda. Current day Bruce Wayne is a caricature of the more brutal qualities he demonstrated (though less frequently) in his earlier comics. His “I’m doing this for your good, you need this” logic is unwavering, even when he’s physically abusing Jason to the point he can’t move. The way Jason sees Bruce is “well he’s my father and he’s a reasonable person. I can trust him.” Despite Bruce repeatedly betraying his trust.

Young Jason is aware of the destructive path he’s been put on, but because he has faith in Bruce both as his father and Batman, he’s quick to forgive him and dismiss this. Ultimately Bruce still makes an effort to comfort and reassure Jason. The difference between earlier comics Bruce and current Bruce is that in the same way Batman is much more brutal with his opponents, he became much colder and neglectful as a parent too.

The difference between “old Jason” and current day Jason is his firm belief that Batman’s methods are flawed. He was already starting to disagree with him in aditf; however his death was the catalyst for him fully losing faith in Batman. Becoming a teenager and seeing reality through your own eyes, growing out of the (often) flawed and/or outdated logic parents try to impart onto you, that’s just part of maturing. He’s at an age where he is suddenly bombarded by a lot of intense anger and frustration at the unfairness and injustice he sees, and wrestling with past traumas that are now resurfacing (this does not define his entire personality, it’s just a natural outcome given the position he’s been put in and the trajectory of his life thus far, but I digress). Bruce says Jason can’t be trusted but he fails to actually listen to his son or provide much-needed guidance. If he’d communicated with Jason face to face, things would have gone a lot differently. Maybe it wouldn’t have ended in an explosion, Jason would have lived, and he wouldn’t have lost faith in Batman. He could have still become disillusioned with Batman though, because again, Jason sees the deeper underlying issues that Batman cannot adequately address or solve. Had things gone differently (i.e., had he not died), maybe he could have potentially put down the mantle of Robin, healed himself his own way, and built a career helping victims.

I’m guessing what you mean by "if the old Jason were back" is if nothing changed about his backstory (he still died), but his current self suddenly agrees with Batman and his no-kill code. I think the evidence points to Batman being content with this outcome, and I say this because really the only times Bruce treats Jason with respect is when Jason obeys Bruce against his better judgement with little to no objection. I think he’d be relieved Jason finally “stopped being so difficult” and take satisfaction in his compliance. If Jason one day apologized, Bruce would confirm his suspicions about Jason (i.e., he’s unpredictable and violent, needed “tough love”, etc). Then we’d have Jason become just another batkid who doesn’t kill but beats the shit out of villains, which is what Bruce believes is the only right path for all of his kids, Jason included. This would virtually extinguish the decades long conflict they had going, but it’d be underwhelming, unsatisfying, and it would be at the expense of Jason’s true character.

If the “old Bruce” came back, he’d still disagree with and distrust Jason, but he’d probably be less physically abusive about it? He still wouldn’t have done it himself, but maybe he would have let Jason kill joker. I want to give him some credit and say he could have done that, because he was contemplating killing joker after Jason’s death in Batman #429, and basically left joker to die in a helicopter crash (though he never found his body or made sure he finished the job). Maybe in the same way, he could have turned a blind eye and let Jason blow his deranged brains out, because (and this is Batman’s own words) “that’s the law. Not Justice”. If he retained this emotional state at the time of utrh. Following this though, I think they’d stop communicating and Jason would leave to do his own thing. Jason would be relieved, though I don’t believe it’s enough for him to want to stick around just yet, because joker being dead was important yes, but there’s also the matter of “you weren’t willing to do that for me, dad”. Maybe they could eventually get to a WFA-esque situation where Jason continues to kill with the exception of the few times he works with the batfam. Bruce learns to be indifferent to the killing, and he actually tries to rebuild their relationship. Idk, but one can dream.

Alternatively, if everything went the same way but at the very least the old Bruce didn’t re-traumatize and abuse Jason, constantly destroying any chance he has at healing, that’s more than he would ever wish for imo.

In summary, I don’t think either of them reverting to their old selves would cause issues sm as it would resolve their long-standing conflict. If Jason just straight up agreed with and obeyed Batman, Bruce wouldn’t have much reason to be angry at him and fight him all the time. If Bruce became more flexible and adopted a more nuanced stance on justice, he’d have more understanding and leniency towards Jason which would again, cause them to fight less.

I'm Sorry, I Can't Help It.

This is PART 3 of I’m Sorry, I Can’t Help It.

I highly recommend going back to read part 2!

This is an age regression fanfic! Hate will not be tolerated, so take your bullshit somewhere else.

Awsten is struggling with his mental health and turns to age regression with a coping mechanism.

After failing to keep it a secret, what will happen between him and his band mates?

DISCLAIMER:

Age regression is a completely nonsexual coping skill. It is represented appropriately and correctly as it relates to my life. Regression can be positive in many circumstances, but not all. If you are struggling with your mental health or involuntary age regression, talking to a professional is always the best choice.

Chapter Three: Would It Be You?

In which little Awsten has a meltdown and big Awsten has a conversation.

Sorry for this update coming later than I meant it too; things have been busy. If you have hopes, dreams, and requests for future chapters, feel free to suggest them in the comments! Also, if you noticed me struggling with keeping the word tenses all the same, no you didn't.

TW: Swearing, pulling out of little space, caregiver called "dada", discussion of a little neglecting their regression, mild dissociation, little having a panic attack (they are fine and well taken care of.)

Don't worry, even though there's a lot of hurt in this chapter, I went heavy on the comfort too.

“Wakes?” A small voice asked rather loudly into Geoff’s ear.

“Awsten? What do you want?” Geoff questioned, groaning as the younger wiggled around on the bed. He didn't try to hide his mild annoyance at being woken up and he spoke like he was talking to his 32 year old band mate. Then, he heard a little whine and a pitiful “Sorry.”

Fuck.

“Oh no Awsie it’s okay! I just thought I was talking to a big Awsten and you're just a little one, aren’t you!” Geoff recovered quickly, rolling over to look at the boy and smiling as brightly as he could after just waking up.

“Is kay I’s little?” Awsten asked, sounding almost shocked.

“I promise it's okay Awsie. Do you want to get up or not yet?” Geoff asked through a sleepy grin.

“Cuddles, Effy? Pease?” Awsten’s voice came out small after the reassurance. Geoff placed a hand on the little’s shoulder, rolling Awsten away from him before wrapping an arm around his stomach and pulling him close.

He shifted and gave the smaller another tug closer, saying, “‘Course Aws.” The two were essentially spooning, something Geoff had never considered doing with his friend. Even though Awsten was touchy, cuddling while they were both laying down in bed should feel like a big step, but it didn’t. Geoff just felt so grateful to be able to wrap his arms around the little and watch his friend melt with the comfort.

He writes so many songs about feeling so messed up. I just love seeing him like this; he looks so free of his thoughts.

Awsten whined and squirmed a little bit and Geoff thought maybe he’d squished the little, so he loosened his arms. To his surprise, Awsten craned his neck back and looked at the older dejectedly. Guess I read that wrong. Slowly he moved his arms back into place and Awsten seemed to relax before grabbing an arm and pulling himself back over so he could face Geoff. For a moment, he looked up at the brunette with a lopsided smile. I’ll never get used to this, will I.

Just a second later, Awsten adjusted a little more, curling his face and shoulder into Geoff’s chest. He looked (somehow) even smaller. Geoff started to rub his upper back slowly, just enjoying his ability to make everything okay for Awsten. For once, he had all the solutions. While just basking in the moment, Geoff is jolted by the sound of a knock on the door.

“Geoff! I need your guitar for promotional photos!”

Jawn.

Geoff feels Awsten push him away and he sits up. There’s fear in the little’s eyes but he looks stuck in his own head. His throat moves as if he's trying to say something but the words don't come out. Shocker. He was basically a year old and nonverbal 30 seconds ago.

“Jawn– It's not a good time,” Geoff stutters out. What the hell do I do right now? That’s not going to work. Oh god.

Geoff can hear the eye-roll in Jawn’s voice as his reply comes through the door. “I have a key card, man. You don't even need to get out of bed. And I know you don't have a girl in there. Chill out.” Awsten’s eyes dart to the door as the whir of the key card reader sounds out; he still looks pitifully regressed.

As Jawn opens the door, Geoff tries to tug the covers up over Awsten, but when he looks over to do so he no longer sees the nervous looking little kid, Awsten is obviously big again. He reaches over to place a questioning hand on the boy but Awsten looks totally dissociated.

Jawn walks in and laughs, “Oh hi Awsten. I don't even want to know, guys.”

“Jawn, what? I just had a new idea for a song and there's no couch, so we are in bed,” Awsten replies with a voice multiple octaves lower than the giggles Geoff had woken up with.

Did he just force himself out of it? How is he so big and so… not?

“Alright then,” Jawn says, grabbing the guitar and shutting the door behind him. As soon as Geoff sees the lock click, he hears a choked out sob and snaps his neck to look at Awsten. Awsten who’s suddenly sobbing, thumb in his mouth, shoulders crunched in and shaking violently.

“Okay- okay Awsten you’re okay. Awsten, you’re okay buddy,” Geoff says, panicked. He’s not sure if trying to hold him will help or not, so he reaches out slowly and touches the little’s arm. He’s met with a scream and another flood of tears so he pulls his arm away quickly, completely lost on what to do. “Aws, breathe. It’s okay honey,” He tries. The smaller boy is still hyperventilating, face turning an angry shade of red as he rocks back and forth.

“Dada please help,” Awsten chokes out through tears.

Dada?

Awsten seems to realize what he’s said and his eyes widen. “No! No! Sorry! I’s–”

“Its okay Aws,” Geoff cuts him off but the younger continues to look terrified.

Geoff gets out of their bed and runs to Awsten’s side, noticing the frog on the floor. He picks it up and gently places it in the little’s lap. He’s rewarded with a slight recess in the sobs as Awsten picks the toy up and holds it against his chest. “There we go, honey. Keep breathing for me,” Geoff says, and slowly, Awsten’s breathing starts to return to normal. He convulses and his nose seems to clear as snot runs down his face. Seemingly as soon as he can breathe through his nose again, he draws his thumb into his mouth.

He’s so pitiful looking. He would never let me see him like this before.

“Do you want a hug?” Geoff asks, pausing for a moment before revising. “Do you want Dada to give you a hug?”

Awsten’s eyes bug out at the question, “Dada?”

“Yeah Awsie, you can call me Dada if you want. It’s okay,” Geoff says.

I mean– I guess he can call me Dada?

“Hug peas… Dada?” Awsten says quietly. Geoff slowly leans down and wraps himself around Awsten tightly, the red tufts in the front of his hair laying on Geoff’s shoulder. “M gettn bigger,” Awsten states, his big and little voices fighting for control.

“You can stay small if you want, Aws,” Geoff offers, but the younger responds quickly,

“No, m ready to be big.”

Finally pulling away from their hug, Geoff pushes Awsten’s hair out of his face and wipes a lingering tear off his cheek, “Okay, that’s okay too.” He walks back around to his side of the bed and crawls in, sitting up next to Awsten. “Big?” He questions.

“Yeah, mostly,” Comes Awsten’s reply, sounding almost entirely like an adult’s voice.

“Are you okay? I have some questions,” Geoff starts.

Awsten sighs, “Yeah, I’m sure. I think I know what they are though so can I just explain first?”

Geoff nods and Awsten begins, “I’m sorry I came in here last night the way I did. I know coming to your door regressed kind of forced you to let me in and that wasn't fair.”

“Wait–” Geoff tries to interrupt, but Awsten stops him.

“No. Let me say everything I need to say.”Awsten states, leaving little room for argument. “I’m sorry I did that without us being able to discuss it first. Thank you for caring for me. I remember almost everything that happens while I am small and you were so good to little me. It's just like being in the backseat of a car, and my little self gets to drive. Thanks for making sure he didn’t crash, Geoff.”

I did a good job. He remembers it all and he thinks I did a good job.

“I’m sorry I woke up little. When it happened, I was a little shocked too. That doesn’t happen to me often. If I had to guess, I would say it happened because I’ve been neglecting my little self a bit lately, and I guess he knew it was a good time for big me to be taking a break. Please don’t feel bad you didn't realize I was little immediately this morning. Honestly, I didn’t either.”

Neglecting his little self? Fuck. God, I am never letting him do that around me.

“What happened when Jawn came in?” Geoff questioned.

“Jesus Christ motherfucker– I'M GETTING TO IT.”

“OKAY SORRY, GOOD LORD.”

Awsten rolls his eyes and gets back to his long-winded apology and explanation, “When I realized Jawn was coming in,” He says, shooting Geoff a glare, “I panicked because I was fighting really hard to pull out– uhh, like to get my big self back into the driver’s seat. That can be a really uncomfortable process, which is why I looked so fucked up. I wasn’t quite able to pull out before Jawn came in, so I was essentially faking it ‘til I made it. My brain still felt small but I just sort of shut down and dissociated while forcing myself to pretend to be big. Doing that is hard and exhausting, so as soon as Jawn left, I just started to melt down. When I’m big, I try not to have big shows of emotion, so when I’m little, it happens more often– like little me is trying to make up for wasted time, that asshole,” Awsten jokes.He seems as if he has finished and looks to Geoff for his response before realizing he’s skipped something.

“Oh. Yeah.” He says, a red blush creeping across his cheeks. “I’m so sorry I called you Dada. I– I guess little me has always wanted someone to call that and he kinda took over while I was freaking out. I know you said it was fine because I was a mess, but don't worry, it won’t happen again.”

It won't happen again?

“Awsten, please,” Geoff almost begs, and Awsten looks back at him confused. “Awsten I didn't mind it. I– I think I actually liked it,” Geoff says quietly. “Seeing you all free from these fucking adult emotions was so amazing. I wish you could feel like that more. I liked getting to protect you like that.”

“Are you screwing with me?” Awsten replies, sounding almost angry.

“No! No, I promise I’d never do that, Awsie.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Do you– Fuck how do I say this,” Geoff thinks. “Do you want a caregiver?”

After a brief moment, Awsten speaks. “Would it be you?”

“If you want me,” Geoff breathes out.

Awsten smiles, eyes almost welling with tears. “Yes please.”

How to Entertain Your Baby: A Guide for Work from Home Parents

Working parents are often caught between a rock and a hard place when caring for their children. On the one hand, putting your child in daycare for most of the day can be a godsend, allowing you to go about your work without worrying about tending to them. On the other hand, there are times when you may want to spend some quality time with them instead of leaving them with another adult who is not related to them. Working parents have a variety of challenges that they must overcome to ensure that their children are happy and well-cared for at all times. Many things working parents must consider if they want to have fun and effective ways of entertaining their babies so that they don’t feel neglected or disconnected from them.

Why is it Important to Entertain Your Baby?

If you want to keep your sanity as a working parent, it is essential to make sure that you find ways to entertain your baby. This is especially true if you work from home because you don’t have to be separated from your child for 8 or more hours a day, as many working parents do. However, it is still essential to ensure that you find ways to keep your child engaged and happy when you are with them so that they don’t feel neglected or ignored. Some parents find that their child does not want to be held or played with very much when they are with them. This can be frustrating, especially if you have been putting off entertaining your child because you have been busy with other things. Suppose your child is not interested in being entertained when you are with them. In that case, they may also not be interested when a nanny or sitter is with them. This can make it very difficult to go to work and do what you need.

How to Have Fun with Your Baby While Working

If your baby is under 6 months old, you will likely find that they are happy to be held by you while you work. This is a great time to bond with them and get some baby talk while you work. You may also tell them a story or sing to them, which can also be very bonding. As your child gets older, keeping them entertained may become more challenging while you are working. If your child is over 6 months old, try to find ways to make your work more interactive so that your child can be involved with you while you are working. For example, if you are writing, your child can be beside you, coloring or doing a puzzle. Choose work your child is developmentally ready to be involved in so that they don’t get bored and want to be held or taken away from their activity. You may also want to try working with your child beside you sometimes so that they can have your undivided attention and be involved with what you are doing.

Tips for Having Fun While Working With Your Baby

- Be prepared: Before you start working with your child, ensure you have everything you need nearby so that you don’t have to get up frequently or be distracted by going to another room. If you are writing, make sure you have snacks and a beverage close by so you don’t have to get up and go to the kitchen. - Use toys: Babies and toddlers love to play with toys, and many of them are very entertaining. If you are working at a table or another place where your baby can’t play with toys, use a baby play mat or put down a blanket or sheet in a place where your child can play.
