Time to make this more angsty. Do you guys think that Filbrick would make Ford dress up all appropriate and normal in this photo? Do you think that Filbrick saw his “favorite” son wasn’t normal because of his hands? Do you think Ford tries to hide his hands a lot behind his back with this posture because it looks more professional?

Then, you realize…

“your father won’t want you returning without millions,”

Filbrick doesn’t care for Ford anymore. He once saw his son as a person who would be successful, but it is all put on pause when Stan accidentally “wrecked” Ford’s future. He only saw Ford useful when he had potential to only make money. Now he doesn’t see him as anything anymore.

However, Bill does now. This cycle will repeat with Bill.

Do you guys think that Ford clings onto the wrong people only because they gave him that attention, not caring if they hurt him?

Vindemiator Gavin: /ˈɡævɪn/ holds the meaning "white hawk" and all the virtues long associated with the bird of prey. In his true form, away from all the expectations of being a pleasure demon...of being an incubus...he can be the strong one. The one in charge of his own desire, of his own destiny....instead of

Vindemiator: /vɪnˌdɛmi.təɹ/ originates from the Greek term for 'the grape gatherer', a simple bright yellow star. A mere servant to others' desires; nothing more than the name assigned to him. Vindemiator, the star: a grape gatherer. Never to enjoy the fruits of his own labour, dismissed the moment the job is done. Vindemiator, the incubus: a sex demon. Meant to transform and lose himself to satisfy others, for a mere crumb of nourishment, kicked out of sweat soaked sheets once the fun was had......that was over. He wasn't going back to that life. He was Gavin. A white hawk, with wings that paved their own path.

A path that led him to his home...to his freelancer.

Gale had to watch Katniss professing her love for Peeta - in front of the whole world- for weeks. He watched her get engaged to someone else. Smiling, dancing, the picture of happiness.

When they're finally alone in that stone house by her father's secret lake- she confesses that she only pretended to love Peeta to save HIS life.

"President Snow told me he'd kill you."

She then lays out her escape plan.

Gale is delighted. Laughing, spinning her around- finally included in a vision of bliss with her.

He confesses he loves her.

She is too fucking traumatized to say it back.

Of course she loves him. But love is vulnerability. A luxury she can't afford in survival mode.

It's such beautiful slow motion tragedy.

Such exquisite whump.

Then she tells Gale she wants Peeta to go with them into the woods. And Haymitch.

He realizes she's saving everyone she loves. Not just him.

It becomes simple again. The hurt takes over. He leaves the gloves.

"I don't want anything made in the capitol."

And that moment is the beginning of his single minded allegiance to the rebellion.

Excellent tags, homie.

No wait, random worldbuilding idea:

A people who have an age-old tradition, that when warriors left home to go to war, their family that remains home prepare funeral goods for them while they wait, sewing them the clothes and preparing the tools and all that they will be buried with - to emotionally prepare them to the hard possibility that the one who left will not return home alive. If the warrior returns, their burial goods are all burned in a bonfire that is lit for the celebration of their return.

And to this modern day, mothers of the culture will tell their children "fine, but let me take your measures for burial clothes before you go" as a way of telling them that something they're about to do is lethally stupid. Sharing stories about just how dramatic their mothers are, someone tells their group of friends that his mother once actually took out a measuring tape to start taking his measures when he said he's leaving home for a work trip.

And another one goes "pfft, yeah. This one time I went to a rock concert and came back home to mom sitting on her sewing machine, fucking making me a funeral coat."

slightly furious reminder that fish do in fact feel pain and do in fact experience fear and distress when in pain since people seem to love spreading the myth that fish don't feel pain. what is it with people assuming a creature is incapable of feeling pain or emotion just because it doesn't have complex facial muscles. come on gang
