Nanami Kento x marriage of convenience

Both you and Nanami had been friends for quite some time now . Once , as you were both in your early twenties silly and drunk , you had playfully made a pact to get married if the two of you remained single for too long or gave up on the strenuous Idea of dating.

Having both reached that point , on one occasion you reminded Nanami of that silly pact made years ago in attempt to remanence the good ol' times. To your surprise, Nanami had a serious look on his face as his eyes were fixated on yours.

"Let's do that " he said . A grin tugging at the corners of his lips .

"I mean , personally I've reached a point where dating sounds like an exhausting task and I'm afraid there's no more fish in the water for me"

Your eyes widden in suprise, never thinking he would actually consider such a ridiculous thing, but you'd be lying if you said that you didn't think about it quite often throughout the years . And after many discussions regarding the subject you both reached an agreement.

A marriage of convenience , that entailed you would only be man and wife on paper and nothing more .

Almost a year into your marriage , things started getting far too complicated between the two of you . the chemistry between you palpable , the lustful glances threatening to break your platonic arrangement.

Nanami is a gentleman through and through, but his honour was hanging by a thread when it came to you ......

Solar Eclipse Shadows

These solar eclipse shadows form due to the distance between the sun and the leaves on the trees. The distance and the proximity of the leaves to one another cause for a "lensing" type effect, making the eclipse shadow clearer to the human eye.

If somehow you haven’t seen by now, while the Super Bowl is being aired, Israel is striking Rafah.

The people of Palestine had been told to go there, they were promised it was safe.

And while this is happening, even though earlier several tags on Palestine were trending, only one or two are now.

I haven’t written any posts personally on Palestine myself. I didn’t feel I had anything to add here aside from reblogging and boosting whatever I can but please. We can’t forget Palestine or its people especially now.

This has gone on too long and gone much much too far MANY times and now is when we need to push harder.

Many of the heads of Western countries are either beating around the bush and wasting time, or outright denying the things the Palestinian people don’t have the privilege to ignore. They don’t have the choice to look away from their pain, or the pain of friends, family, neighbors, their country. And even through all of this they’re still trying their damn hardest just to live. And we all need to listen.

So now, especially if you live in a western country like I do, now we step it up a notch. Now is the time if you haven’t already to read up on Palestinian history. Listen to what the people of Palestine are saying. Hold firm on the boycott like never before. Any and every way you can donate, do it. eSIMs, aid, anything that will reach. Save as much evidence as you can. Videos, articles. Don’t let Zionists pretend all of this never happened.

Even if you think there’s nothing you can do, I’m telling you, keep going. Even if you feel you can only give a little, if we all give a little together it becomes much more.

Hit imperialism where it hurts. In the wallet. Follow the BDS instructions, find protests in your area if you can, boost as much information about Palestine as you can find, call your reps, and do not lose hope. The people of Palestine are not dead. They are holding on even through all this and we all owe it to them to do the same.

A Free Palestine will happen in our lifetimes. But it will be hard fought. So go out there and fight hard! The governments can’t hide from their own people forever. The companies can’t bleed cash forever. The people will win. So push until we do. Do not look away. Free Palestine

its the last month of 2023 so i’m just gonna say it: what the absolute fuck was that

[melimelow]

any bitch that says "you can be critical of israel but-" or "israel had racist government but-" should swallow a goddamn boot

i'm not "critical" of israel, i think it shouldn't exist. i don't think anyone has a right to a fascist apartheid ethnostate built on the mass graves of an indigenous population. and reducing the horror of ethnic cleansing, genocide and apartheid laws that palestinians have been enduring for decades to just "israeli government is kinda racist" makes me fucking lose my mind
