“In the beginning we were a group of nine. They are hunting us, and they won’t stop until they’ve killed us all.”

Well I mean

Ella: Hey, Sam? I need some dating advice.

Sam: Just because I'm dating Six doesn't mean I know how I did it.

Me sobbing at 3 am on a Monday night: I don’t know man I just really miss the lorien legacies fandom ya know? Like we were small enough already and now there’s only like three active accounts and I’m not even one of them. I never post about it anymore and they aren’t even quality books so why am I so hung up on them? what HAPPENED to us

[eighthgarde]

Also I took a pretty photo of my shelves

[eighthgarde]

Just because your bookshelves are full doesn’t mean you should stop buying books.

Not to start shit but - remember when Marina wore Eight's pendant after he died?

being in love is a very strange thing.

Favorite Lorien Legacies Pairings. (inspired by this)

The Fall of Five AU where Marina dies instead of Eight

I hear a voice in my head.

Eight, it’s been weeks.

The sun peaks out from the edges of the blinds. I can’t remember the last time they were opened. I’m not coming, Ella.

But we need you. If this is about Marina…

Feelings of repressed guilt and grief suddenly come rushing back just at the thought of her name. Something inside me snaps. Don’t start with this again. It’s my fault she’s gone. 

But Ella persists. There wasn’t anything you could do…

I could’ve teleported and saved her! I could have stopped Five! I could have done something! Suddenly, I’m gasping for air. Reliving that moment. It’s not one smooth memory. Instead, it comes in flashes and echoes and screams. It’s all my fault… It… Should have… It should have been me Ella! Just please… Please don’t pretend you understand what I’m feeling. Leave me alone. I was alone for so long. It seems easier to return to solitude. There was no pain in that solitude, just emptiness.

There’s a long pause. Then five words.

Eight, I loved her too.
