You know what I've never really seen realistically depicted in fiction? The way that people in places that get a huge amount of snow deal with said snow. Specifically in the cities. I get that it's probably not exactly an intuitive thing to think about if you've never lived in a place that gets a lot of snow, and even if you do, you probably figure that they must have some really sophisticated infrastructure systems specifically for this purpose. It's not like they'll just scoop the snow off the streets and gather it into huge piles, and then just climb over the progressively larger and larger snow piles every single year for months while waiting for the piles to melt in the spring.

We do. There's no point in planning more sophisticated systems to get rid of something that'll eventually just go away on its own. So they just pile the snow into randomly designated spaces that cars or people aren't supposed to go through, and let it pile up. There's significantly less street parking available in the winter because some spots where you could otherwise park a car are currently the parking spot of a snow pile three times taller than a car.

You get used to it. And if you grow up around here, it never even occurs to you to think of it as something strange in the first place.

I was teaching kids today and they got fixated on the usual ‘are they dead now?’ question when I was talking about historical figures. So I was just like ‘Yes, they’re dead now, everyone who was alive in the 1800s is dead now.’ and then one kid was like ‘Except for you’.

I keep having this recurring thought about the first time solangelo slept in the same bed. Without hesitation, Nico pulled Will into a hug like he was a teddy bear. Softly surprised, Will hadn’t expected such a strong, warm embrace — it almost felt like Nico didn’t want to let him go. In response, Will wrapped his arms around Nico as well, gently running his fingers through his hair and kissing his forehead.

Kaveh comes home in the evening, exhausted, his shoulders aching just like his legs, and all he wants is to collapse onto the bed and sleep for days. But as soon as he steps inside, he is greeted by the scent of warm spices, grilled vegetables, and tender meat and it feels as if some of his weariness melts away. As he crosses the kitchen, drawn in by the aroma, he vanishes into the embrace of his man who had been craving for his return.
