Steve hates the dentist.
Tommy knows this because his dad is a dentist. His grandpa was a dentist and his brother is a dentist, and Tommy is currently at school studying to become a dentist.
There are only two constants in this world: Hagan boys grow into dentists and Steve Harrington is utterly and completely terrified of the dentist.
He knows this because he has been witness to the complete meltdown that has happened before appointments. He has watched Mrs Harrington drag her son into the chair for everything from cleanings to braces.
And he also knows that the only way to calm Steve down is to hold his hand. Tommy knows this because that was his job.
Steve never had an appointment that Tommy wasn’t present for even after he got too old to cry, even after they had their falling out.
Tommy was there.
With all the change - with graduation and college, with the earthquake and Carol moving out of town with her sister - he welcomes the stability. It’s good to know that some things don’t change.
He’s working the summer at his dad’s practice, familiarizing himself with insurance forms when Steve comes in. Tommy’s been waiting for this since he saw his name on the schedule this morning.
He tells himself that it has nothing to do with Steve or with holding his hand and all to do with bragging rights. Tommy’s not the one working at the video rental, right? Tommy’s not the one that was left behind.
Tommy doesn’t even get to say anything because his dad’s coming to the window asking, “No Mr. Munson this time?”
What?
“He’s coming,” Steve answers like that’s normal. Like it’s a part of the script. “He’s looking for a parking spot. Your lot is still the worst, Mr H.”
Steve and his dad chitchat but Tommy barely hears it, watching through the glass in the front door as Eddie ‘The Freak’ Munson walks in.
He watches Eddie follow Steve back. He watches him take his spot and wince through the bone-crushing grip Steve keeps on his hand. He watches as his dad calls, “Tom, come in here and tell me what you see.”
He sees himself, being left behind.
#this post actually wins an award for the most times someone has said the word dentist#here’s some Tommy angst on a Monday morning#I think a part of Tommy always assumed that Steve would eventually come back#his new friends will get sick of him or they’ll move on and Steve will come crawling back#but to see the final thing - the last purpose he had in Steve’s life - be handed off to Eddie Munson of all people#is just devastating#Tommy’s going to go cry in the bathroom after this#steve harrington#eddie munson#tommy hagan

Thinking about him (the soldier in Poynter’s Faithful Until Death painting watching an apocalypse unfold around him with horror in his eyes as he tries to keep himself standing beneath a doorway, based on an actual 19th century archeological find of a man in full soldier’s garb under a doorway at Pompeii)
#edward poynter#art#faithful until death#Pompeii#Do I think this man was actually ~standing guard until death~? unlikely. he probably just succumbed to the smoke early#do i think this is a devastating representation of the actual last moments of thousands of people? absolutely#it’s such a good painting

saddest thing that can happen to 2 guys with freak shit going on is people calling them boyfriends. yes i know theyve got something homosexual going on but brother it is NOT that
#regular thoughts.jpg#this is about soap and ghost. but also applies to jayvik and SO MANY FUCKING SHIPS#do u know how devastating it is to love 2 guys with freak shit going on#and then everyone decides to make them normal#like WHAT are you doing#(it's a refusal to interact with a fandom beyond its potential for exploring comfortable and predetermined dynamics#between two queer characters just for the sake of shipping - whether or not they fit those dynamics)#(but we dont have to talk about that)

I actually need some fanfic, where Bruce and Jason are in the middle of some argument, and a casual (and a well-practiced with Dick before) sentence leaves his mouth, something along the lines "How old do you think you are?!", meaning that he is acting childishly. And because Jason is irritated, and his tongue runs loose in his anger, he screams back that he is nineteen, and Bruce just freezes, because... Oh. Jason is nineteen. He is a fucking kid - his kid - that lost years of his teenhood, and was forced back without anyone giving him a space to catch up, with everyone else already treating him like an adult... When he isn't.
#you all don't understand how devastating it is to die like a kid and be back to everyone moving on and expecting you to run with them#when you are just learning to pace#no one give him time to come to his senses#and no one spoke with him about it#just how much derealisation it could bring#do you think jason sometimes still feels like he is a kid despite being so tall and strong#like he realises that he doesn't look like kid but in his mind everyone sees him like one#even though they never treat him like one#DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I MEAN#— lie's rambling#jason todd#red hood#dcu comics#dc universe#dcu#batman#bruce wayne

thought about damian’s unique position as a son of the al ghuls and the bats for too long and got sad about it. also i miss my grandpa + listening to sad music on loop = i have to make this everyone’s problem.
chinese version below! thought i should start including two translations since i’m fluent in both and i might as well allow more people to enjoy the same art. i would also do a japanese version but i can’t be confident in that one at all HAHAHAHA

我知道我寫的字很醜、我太久沒手寫中文了。請您們原諒我⋯囧rz
#damian wayne#damian al ghul#robin#dc robin#robin iiii#dc#dc comics#dc fanart#damian wayne fanart#i have been in such an angst-creation mood#apologies for that but i love it#nothing better than devastating dialogue#also been on a weird damian art drawing thing too#he’s just so little i can’t help it#anyways he makes me sad#it’s a really strange position to be in#is he allowed to love them? is it wrong if he misses them?#is he wrong for being part of their family too?#many thoughts#my art

my au where bee goes with megatron and the decipticons instead LOL
#optimus prime#bumblebee#b 127#megatron#transformers one#megatron wins custody AU#transformers#optimus is actually really fun to draw...#his face is the easiest for me#sending my stupid son that i love away because i have trust issues#alsooo just to add... bee didnt go with megs because op sent him away#op and elita were actually devastated when he left and tried to get him to come back the entire time#i like to think that after bee has been with the decipticons for so long when he returns to the autobots nobody really trusts him#especially op... like thats his son that he loves but he would have such horrible trust issues#so basically this AU ends with bee having no one LOOOL

Knuckles "The Fun Uncle" the Echidna, everyone
#sth#sth fanart#silver the hedgehog#knuckles the echidna#mighty the armadillo#roonies comics#roonies doodles#dadow au#yall i have a very devastating story to tell. just after i'd finished this and was heading to bed#i decided i should try reading the classic idw comics because i wanted more mighty content. because i love mighty armadillo#take a wild guess what the literal FIRST THING i saw him do. thats right. throwing boulders at ray as a game. sigh#my fix for this major flop on my part is that hes grown up now and sees how it can be dangerous especially to a very small child#anyway. theyre sooooo babies to me <3

(beautiful high res version on patre0n)
#bg3#baldur's gate 3#astarion#tavstarion#KARLACH#i nearly forgot her#when you just escaped vampire slavery but now you have to save for a down payment#i can't stress how important it is to me that astarion has a birthday#i don't know why#also sex is fine but have you ever had someone wash your hair for you. there is nothing more intimate#i'm devastated that i had to desaturate the polaroid because the lighting was so pretty

Save your tears for something sad, because there’s nothing sad here. I have lived a privileged and an interesting life, and now it’s time to go.

Happy Amok Time Day, friendly reminder that Theodore Sturgeon, the writer of the episode, is credited with the first positive portrayal of homosexuality in science fiction with his short story The World Well Lost (1953), 14 years before Amok Time aired. Which could mean nothing.
#please read it tho it’s online and it’s soooo good#heartbreaking.#devastating.#but incredible#and a very quick read too#it’s also funny because like. the characters are very similar to Kirk and Spock just like less likeable versions#which again. could mean nothing.#anyhow I think it adds a very neat layer to amok time#star trek#spirk#tos#amok time#the world well lost#theodore sturgeon#sci fi

episode one of game changer s1: pass this lie detector test!
episode one of game changer s7: go through these carefully constructed scenarios for an entire year before unionizing and turning on the man who put you in this position in the first place. install a camera in his home. give him a kink therapy session. throw a party without him in the process. there’s a fondue machine
#i’m just. how did we get here#also i made a devastating typo at first on this post. i’ll let you guess where#game changer
