#Griefing

[plutopug]

The parents on the QSMP are so silly, I think they mistook "grieving" for "griefing"

Because you are the pulse..

[coexxisting]

eu odeio estar aqui sem você. pq você se foi sem mim? como eu devo viver sem você? já se passaram 2 anos e eu não consigo mais voltar a ser feliz, penso em você todos os dias e não consigo suportar essa dor e a falta que você faz.

i will never stop looking at things and think, "you would've liked it“.

From this Ask:

I made griefer outfits for Lazuli. She wears darker accessories when griefing at night and her usual gold scarf during the day when doing regular Minecraft stuff or when she’s in Stick City.

my grandma just passed away. now where do i put all of the love i've kept for her? why did i saved it before deep in my heart? i should have just spend it on her.

now i have nowhere to give it and nowhere to keep it. i regret.

i have so many regrets.

those words were burden for me to say cuz they were so heavy so i just kept them inside me thinking she already knew it all. she could guess it all. i hope she did. but why didnt i simply gave them to her instead?

i couldnt brace, endure, bear the weight of lifting them from my heart and passing them by my tongue in words so now i must keep the weight of them on my shoulders all the time. all my life. i was weak.

she has space in her heart for my love. for simple thank u's and love u's. it was much easier for her to carry it only if i would share it.

i guess im always selfish enough to not share anything. when u in fact did. u shared ur whole life with me. all the last pieces. all the time. all the emotions, energy, effort.

u sacrificed ur whole life for me. if only i could bargain my happiness for treating u better and making u feel everything ive felt and feel and will feel towards u i would be miserable for the rest of my life and the rest of samsara cycle.

now i am still miserable and u still couldnt hear me saying i love you.

i am so sorry.

So I recently finished reading all of Griefing (despite never having read/watched mha lol). I went in already knowing it had been discontinued so I didn’t have any expectations. I was just wondering if it’d be ok to ask about stuff that had already been hinted at? Like what was the plan WhiteNoiz was talking about? And what did you mean when you said “penumbra is something of a pr disaster for pro heroes”? Feel free to ignore if you just don’t want to get into it or whatever

sure thing. answer ended up kinda long, it's under the cut.

.

“the plan” refers to the upcoming ua school field trip to the sabutera public hero training seminars mentioned in chapter 16. this was the big finale event i basically planned to end the fic with. penumbra’s online friends have pieced together that they’re probably the person who went missing from sabutera. they’re getting information about the investigation from midoriya who’s getting it from all might, and there’s some concern in pro hero circles that the field trip might attract villain attention. therefore the plan was to try and use the field trip as a rescue mission. a confrontation between the league and several members of class 1-a would have happened. denki and kyoka were going to recognize penumbra because the way they move and attack has been mostly copied from games they like, including their rogue character in the mmo they play together.

penumbra is a “pr disaster” because they, and their hometown more generally, represent what’s wrong with a hero-centric society. we didn’t have all the character backstory reveals at the time i started griefing but even then it was clear that the league of villains was mostly tragedies. penumbra is another instance of someone locked out of better opportunities because of circumstances beyond their control, it’s just that their case ends up on national television so it’s harder to ignore. it only gets there because pro heroes take an interest in the case, and that only happens because it’d be a really bad look if they ignore it any longer. 

someone gets kidnapped and nothing is done about it for weeks. why? one could argue because other, more pressing things were happening. they went missing the same night shigaraki attacked hosu, and he even went out of his way to stall an investigation. but there’s something else noteworthy in that same section:

—believes her child's disappearance may be connected to the recent outbreak of villain attacks. Local law enforcement was previously unable to pursue the investigation due to fears of a copycat incident after an anonymous tip claimed Sabutera would be the next city to "experience destruction as Hosu did.” Police have been unable to locate the perpetrator of the false report, which delayed the search by forty-eight hours, and now believe the tip may have been a deliberate distraction to impede the investigation —

there is no mention here of pro heroes. the absence is contrasted with an earlier news segment in the same chapter about hosu rebuilding, where the police department is partnering with a “coalition of heroes.” there are no heroes in sabutera. there weren’t even any who came in response to the anonymous tip in case it turned out to be true. this city has been left to rot. nothing happened because no one was looking for penumbra, because people don’t look for you when you’re from a place like that. by the time penumbra’s mother can get someone to listen to her and actually do something, it’s far too late.

Mornings with Death

Death bids me 'good morning'

Before the sunrise

As I depart from my house

To start the workday

He stands idle on the sidewalk

As he waves good-naturedly

"Are you here for me," I ask

Since he knows my troubled history

I grip the two handles of my bag

Nervously

Standing in the front yard

In the dark

He and I both know

I am too young to go

But he isn't here for me

His face tilts upwards

Lingering

On the second-floor window

To the room

Where my parents' sleep

He is here for one of them

But he never mentions when

Shouting farewell to Death

In our driveway

I rush to my car

He strolls the sidewalk

To patiently wait...

[koniginderrosen]

Maka, Pergilah

Nadimu masih berdenyut

di lenganku; betapa lembut.

Namun, jiwamu sudah jauh

mendekati yang tak tersentuh.

Melintang tahun kau tak pernah alpa

bertanya dan aku hanya tersenyum

menjawab, tanpa banyak berkata-kata;

aku tidak tahu harus bagaimana, tidak tahu

Setelah wajah terakhirmu kupandang,

malam-malam dalam bayang-bayang

aku berbicara padamu, tetapi tidak

bisa berharap apa-apa; cukup sudah

Aku pernah patah, tetapi kau tak jua

menyerah. Sudah saatnya beristirahat

sebab kurasakan betapa kau merasa lelah;

kehilangan bukanlah perkara mudah.

Maka, pergilah. Berjalanlah dengan tenang

menuju kekasihmu, anakmu yang sepasang.

Kaulah yang paling tabah; hujan air mata

tidak pernah membuatmu sedikit pun goyah.

Maka, beristirahatlah. Mereka merindukan

kehadiranmu, mereka ingin bertemu dengan

dirimu, sebagaimana kauingin bersatu

dengan mereka yang mendahuluimu.

A poem I wrote the night after my pet that was by my side for 9 years had to be put down due to cancer. Finally got around to write it down properly.

I used to just plain not get the way in movies and TV series and Spelunky levels about ancient monuments/buildings/tombs, the ancient people or things guarding it would be pissed off at any archaeologist who’s going in there and doing basically anything and yell stuff like “Who goes there!?” and “Death to the defiler!” and attack the trespasser. Like, why are you this easily angry?

I used to not get it. But now I do. Now that I play Minecraft and have learned to distrust after I previously had to put up with self-unaware people breaking holes in my buildings that I personally created after hours of work and leaving stupid messages on signs and being nosy about secrets I put in and being careless with Redstone appliances and turning item frames and breaking random shit, I think I actually would send a swarm of flesh-eating scarabs at people if they were clowning around my structures.

querida mãezinha,

sinto sua falta todos os dias. já sinto sua falta há longos dois anos. mas essa noite pude ter o prazer de sentir o calor de um abraço seu, sentir o seu perfume tão bom, o toque do seu cabelo, o som da sua voz, da sua risada. mesmo que por alguns minutos… te vi e fui correndo ao seu encontro. você me aninhou em seu colo e nos abraçamos de saudade. chorei, ri e sorri ao seu lado, nunca fui tão feliz, mesmo que em um sonho. venha sempre que puder me visitar, mãe. saudades eterna. serei sempre sua menininha. te amo além dessa vida! 🤍
