"charlie..." dana rushes forward and sweeps her baby brother into her arms. after everything she's been through lately, she's just happy to have family that doesn't instantly slip through her fingers, family that feels real and solid in her grip. "you have no idea how happy I am to see you."

@hereforonce gets a very belated starter

;; okay so first thing i know that will help me come back: I think at least initially, I'm going to be iconless. i just don't have the time to make a bazillion icons the way I used to. i might make some banners or something, but mostly, I think I'm going to stick to that.

i'm going to slowly but surely work on putting together a muse list. stay tuned! and thank you all for the support! it definitely is helping motivate me to return. it's nice to know I've been missed/haven't been forgotten.

[flyingupward]

;; *waves very tentatively*

[flyingupward]

;; hiya everyone ! long time no talk ! i’ve missed writing so so much and i really want to get back to it ! i really want a fresh start though so i’m going to work on doing a bit of a reboot. stay tuned ! :) 

[flyingupward]

;; hellooooo my loves! i have missed you all immensely ! sorry for being mia for a while ! i’ve had really low writing motivation and between having a rough semester at school and the mental and physical illnesses both flaring up, i just haven’t been able to be here. HOWEVER, i’ve been re-reading some old things lately and it’s been really sparking some inspiration to make a comeback. SO.... i think to give myself a fresh start, i’m going to work on archiving and making a fresh blog. so stay tuned for that. i love you all and can’t wait to get writing with you all again ! :D

       ❝ okay, uncalled for. ❞ she hates that she’s trying not to smile. coming from anyone else, it would feel patronizing. it should feel patronizing, but SHE KNOWS jim doesn’t mean it that way. after everything they’ve been through together, jim hopper is possibly the one man in hawkins, hell maybe the entire world, she trusts not to patronize her. but still. ❝ you of all people should know i’m MORE than capable of being mean when i want to be, jim. ❞

@rotless​ said: “Every once in a while, you need to see the sun rise. It might be that night for me.” for callie from michelle

       she just WATCHES her for a long moment. god, how had they made such a mess of things ? how had she made such a mess of things ? callie’s used to filling the silence in their relationship, used to standing up, jumping into action, making it all okay. that’s what she’d done for the better part of two decades. now, sitting so close and yet miles apart, she finds that she both doesn’t quite know how and she doesn’t want to. so she just takes one final drag on her current cigarette before putting it out, blowing out the smoke with a long, drawn out exhale.

       ❝ i’ve had A LOT OF NIGHTS like that lately. ❞ it’s not what she’s expecting to say when she finally does speak, but it feels right, somehow. ❝ honestly, there’s something calming about it, it’s like a reminder that... ❞ i love you. i miss you. i’m sorry for everything. god, i miss you so fucking much. you have no idea. ❝ the world goes on, that no matter what you’re going through right now, the world is still turning and you’ve got another chance to get through it. ❞

she steals a glance at her then and instantly regrets it. somehow, she keeps telling herself that michelle will affect her less, that she’ll be able to LOOK AT HER without her breath catching or her heart threatening to quit on her, but that time hasn’t come yet. with a sigh ( you really are a sucker, caroline ), she tucks her hair behind her ear and moves just a hair closer. ❝ do you want to talk about it ? ❞

@fedoraxcrowned-temp​​ said: Raymond's gonna kiss Cassandra silly just because he can 💞💞💞

       she’s not complaining in the slightest. she’s really not. it does catch her off guard a little, not because she doubts him, but because they’re not usually that type of couple. it’s not that physical affection isn’t part of their relationship, it CERTAINLY is, but they’re more... wait until a gesture needs to be made and then make it people. it’s not one of their finer attributes, but it’s how they’ve been up until now. this... this is new.

       she likes it.

       her fingers find his as she returns the kiss, head just tilting ever so slightly as she pulls away. ❝ now i’m VERY MUCH not complaining, ❞ she squeezes his hand to accentuate her point, ❝ but do you mind telling me what on earth that was for ? if only so i can be sure to repeat the occurrence in the future. ❞

[flyingupward]

@synethesis​ said: "I know. It's not in my notes either, but it's in my heart." - from imogen to laudna

       she shouldn’t laugh. she knows she shouldn’t laugh, but she says it’s so matter of factly, like it’s perfectly normal, and it’s so genuine and sweet and IMOGEN that, as per usual, laudna swears she can hear a heartbeat pounding in her ears. a low chuckle rumbles in her throat as a fond smile turns at her lips. ❝ you’ve been taking notes ? gods, when do you even find THE TIME ? ❞

[flyingupward]

@unawaken​ said: “I didn’t say I had good rhythm.” from sylas to delilah?

       she laughs for the first time in what feels like days. FUNNY, how she always seems to do that when he’s around. she normally hates these functions, dreads them even. she’s even taken to finding excuses to tell her mother as to why she can’t attend them, but oh, she’s ever so glad she didn’t do that today. ❝ hush, sylas. ❞ the smile on her face is wide as she says it though, her hand warm as she slips it into his. ❝ quite frankly, you could step on my feet through the entire number. so long as you’ll AFFORD ME A DANCE, i don’t really care. ❞

       she catches herself then, years of finishing school and governesses and her mother’s lectures all flooding into her mind at once. the blush stains her cheeks and she misses a step as they’re walking, pausing just for a moment to recover herself. ❝ i... apologize. that was rather forward of me. i merely meant that i was relieved to see you here today. normally, i have to spend these evenings being PASSED AROUND from man to man like i’m a piece of livestock so... seeing a familiar face, someone whose company i actually enjoy, was a welcome surprise. that’s all. ❞

;; hello fellow critters, i hope you’re all doing as okay as you can be ! please know i am mentally giving you all hot chocolate or some other warm beverage you like, wrapping you in blankets, and giving you big hugs.

idk if this helps, but i feel like after all this time, i trust matt as a dm enough to know that he has a bigger plan for this. it’s not like him to be unnecessarily cruel. he’s not the type of dm to just kill half the party for the lols. i think there’s something more to this and yeah, having to wait till next week is gonna be torture, but i’m gonna try to keep the faith.

that said, feel what you’ve got to feel. i’m here with open arms and lots of love.
