#This post is like...THE clumsiest one I've ever done i think

[k-meanzzz-better]

They're a little old, Scout...

A little bit of HeavyMedic at the end :3

Scout sometimes doesn't say anything. He just grabs and goes. But it doesn't work with Heavy LOL

So some of my silly thoughts: Medic tries to teach Scout some good manners, but Scout thinks he wants to experiment on him…based.. I too 'm suspicious of doctors -_-

Loving the idea of Heavy and Scout having this "big and little brothers" relationship!!! They both need it

Heavy is just trying to live in peace with these two around... He doesn't want to bicker with his lil' brother AND his crazy husband 💀

Hey, Marshall! If you ever think you’re extremely clumsy, just remember there are people like me out there. In the same week, I managed to break a glass of water, cut my left arm on one of the shards (it didn’t go in—just a superficial cut), break one of my two setup monitors, lose my phone charger, hit my mom’s car door on a lamppost, break my glasses, smack my head against a glass door I didn’t see, and walk straight into a post sign.

Now, I’m not mad or sad—I actually laughed about it with my mom—but still, how do you manage your clumsiness? By the way, what’s the worst clumsy thing you’ve ever done? (Sorry if the question is too long!)

Wow, that's- That's actually impressive. I tend to forget there are lots of other people like me out there. I'm glad you're taking it lightly, it's easy to imagine others getting angry or frustrated at themselves for this!

I was extremely self-conscious about my clumsiness when I was a puppy, mostly because I thought I was being a bother for the other puppies and only a few of them would wait for me when playing. That was back in the shelter, before Ryder adopted me. After being adopted, both Ryder and Chase were very patient with me and Ryder helped me with a lot of exercises to help me have a better and healthier life!

Nowadays, sometimes I still feel bad when I'm having too many moments, but then I'm reminded that it's just part of who I am. If others can find it adorable and laugh it off, why wouldn't I?

As for the worst clumsy thing I've ever done... Man, that's a tough one to answer. It's kinda hard to remember when you've done so many all your life... So, I have another idea. Since a lot of our followers here seem to remember a lot of things even from long ago, from following our stories, what about letting them comment on this post what they think is my clumsiest accident ever? Maybe they have a favorite wipeout, or they remember some other accident? If you do, comment here about it, let's see what we can gather!

Thanks for the tag @halfbakedspuds!

Proud-of Tag

Rules: post an excerpt you are proud of.

Of course, now that I have to think about it, suddenly I've never been proud of anything in my life. I think I'll go with Djek’s hallucinations-from-smoke-inhalation scene

It had been days.

Days and days and days, he was sure of it. Days of coughing out black smoke just to breathe it back in again. Days of cooking in a metal shell that weighed nearly as much as he did. Days of choking heat, watering eyes, and this stabbing, gods-damned headache.

Djek dragged the weight behind him, knuckles aching from the grip, but somehow he knew his prize was too important to let go. Was he on a job? Damn fuck-up of a job if he was. Just unlucky, that’s all.

“This is your fault!”

Djek froze. “T-Tyche?”

“You’re only good for one fucking thing and somehow you manage to screw it up every single time! How do you even live with yourself?”

Breathing harder and coughing harder in turn, Djek searched wildly for his friend.

“Tyche, I can’t see you!”

“You know what you are?”

“Stop it!” Djek screamed, though it came out as more of a croak through his smoke-scoured throat. What was happening?

“You’re a parasite. You’re a fucking parasite who lives off nothing but the whims of your betters. And what can you do to repay them? Will you make some shadows do a little dance? Tell them dirty jokes? Beg? That’s all you were ever really good at—begging.” The voice was starting to sound more alien now, possessed of a sneering contempt that permeated every inch of Djek’s heart. The core was still Tyche’s, though. It was always Tyche’s voice he heard.

“You— That’s not true!” Instead of his own voice, the one that came from Djek’s lips was much higher and cracked nearly to pieces. A pathetic child still weeping in an alleyway.

“I pulled you from the brink. I let you play at being a competent person. I saved you! How do you think something like that should be repaid?”

“I don’t—”

“Not by a fucking stab in the back, is what! You should have just died with honor! That’s what a normal person would have done! A grateful person!”

The little street urchin nodded glumly. He was a nobody. Such a nobody that his own parents had tossed him out to cut down on the number of mouths they had to feed. Out of all his siblings, he’d always been the smallest, the clumsiest, the neediest. Really, he’d been the best option.

He was a nobody.

But Tyche or Izjik or Undeta had made him somebody. Even if that somebody was just a puppet, a toy, hey, it was still a damn sight better than nothing, wasn’t it? He was just too weak to stand on his own, so really, it was all for the best if somebody else pulled the strings. To the little urchin, it was common sense.

To Djek though, that was bullshit. The sorcerer spat into the inferno, clearing the grit from his mouth and mind.

“You made me. All of you made me, and I thank you for that. But I’m my own man, with my own choices. And I choose to get the hell out of here.”

That little urchin might’ve seen the sense in living a life given to him like some handout from a kind stranger, but Djek had learned a lot since he’d been that waif trembling in the gutter. That mummery, well-meaning or cruel, wasn’t a life.

His life had started when he’d nearly pissed himself trying to kill for the first time. And turns out, he was more than strong enough to live for himself.
