In the Scarian/Third Life Robin Hood AU I've decided that the way Scar communicates with Grian when he's in the castle is by writing notes which he ties to his arrows and fires up to Grian's window from the forest outside the castle walls
Sometimes they're love notes, sometimes they're secret plans, sometimes they're letters for Lizzie (from Joel) or Pearl, sometimes they're just Scar telling Grian about the interesting stuff happening outside the castle because, as the Prince, Grian's stuck inside and Scar knows how bored he gets and wants to cheer him up
Grian absolutely adores the letters, even if Scar nearly gave him a heart attack the first couple times he 'sent' them and, though he would never admit it, he keeps all of the letters and arrows in a locked trunk under his bed
When he's upset or having a bad day Grian will sometimes lock the door to his room, bring out the trunk, reread some of the letters and maybe stroke the fletching at the end, thinking of how soft it is and how much he wishes he was with Scar...

on twitter, a viral thread started where people around the world shared their translations of “If I must die”, the last work of Dr Refaat Alareer also known as "the voice of Gaza". A beloved poet, teacher and life-long activist for Palestine, he was recently assassinated along with members of his extended family by a targeted Israeli air strike. His loss leaves a hole in the heart of palestinians all over the world.
Below the cut, I’ll be posting the translations of his poem, with links to the original posts. Unfortunately, tumblr limits posts to a maximum of 30 images. I will update when I can.

i remember seeing this one long post awhile ago of someone getting really pissed about people having lighthearted headcanons and writing silly fanfiction about disco elysium and saying stuff like "these people are not friends. this is not a happy fun story. this is a real story and you are trivializing it by writing 'goofy workplace antics' about corrupt cops" and if all you got out of that game was that cops equal bad and nothing else? nothing else about hope for humanity? or the joy of living in a bright and vibrant world and experiencing everything that life has to offer? the beautiful complexity of the lives of strangers? requesting a song for your partner on the radio? failing miserably and yet still moving on? risking everything for another chance even if you thought you had no more chances left? how the right 'ending' always comes from giving back to your community? un jour je serai le retour pres de toi? I love you cuno?
anyway what was i saying im not trying to take a big stance here but for real oh my god can you play touys or something. if all you have to say about the people in revachol is that their life sucks and they are going to live nothing but a miserably, dreary existence because thats how "real life goes" then i hope your own life gets better
