Thank you for the tag @t3mpest98 <3

I haven't been writing a lot recently, but still, jayroy has been kinda taking over my brain, so I have been typing some things about them (because, you know. Them)

Jason couldn't see the ocean, but he could still hear it and smell it, faintly, as the wind carried over to them. The waves were soft that night, and they were far enough from the town that the air smelled just faintly salty.

Gotham wind never smelled like that. Jason had always thought of himself as a coastal person, and he didn't like the idea of living inland, but he was quickly realising that he had never before experienced what living next to an ocean was truly like. Not until now.

Roy took in a deep breath next to him.

"You know", he said, and gently blew the air back out. "We don't have to go back."

Jason turned to look at him. He couldn't see Roy's face too well, as they had their backs on the porch and the lights there, but he could still see outlines of his expression. Slightly hesitant, but hopeful, Jason deduced.

"Go back where?" He asked.

"You know", Roy said again. "Back to the States. Back to Gotham. Whatever. We don't have to go back if we don't want to."

"Why are you talking about this now?" Jason asked.

"We had to talk about it at some point", Roy said. "Why not now? Get it over with. So. We don't have to go back."

Jason frowned.

"Don't you want to go back?" He asked. "Star City is not Gotham. You have...things there for you."

"Yeah, well", Roy shrugged. "I can have things all over the world. Doesn't mean I have to be in the same place myself. And..."

Roy drew in another breath.

"I like it here", he said, a little quieter. "I like it right here, right now. It's not Star City, nor is it Gotham, but it's ours. Something that is just ours."

Jason looked at him. Roy was not looking back at him, instead staring at towards the ocean.

Jason had not known Roy too well before. He had heard things from Dick, once Dick had started to actual talk to him about things outside of Gotham, and Jason could still remember a younger Roy, faintly, somewhere in his memories, if he concentrated hard enough into making the picture appear.

Jason didn't know a lot, but he had still been trained by Batman, and he had inherited at least some of the deductive skills of the great detective, and so, Jason had deduced some things about Roy.

One of the main things he had figured out was that the one thing Roy had always wanted was something that was just his.

The thought of Roy including Jason into the something that was just his made the space right under Jason's lungs tighten, like he was about to make the greatest leap through the sky in his life, excited and bold.

And if there had ever been a thing that Jason had wanted, it was to someone pick him, for once, over everything else that had come before.

"Okay", Jason said.

Roy finally turned to look at him, now with more hope than hesitation in his expression, half lit by the porch lights behind them.

"Okay", Jason said again. He leaned his head down, and rested it on Roy's shoulder. "We don't have to go back. I like it here too."

He did.

It was everything both of them had ever wanted, after all.

Roy pressed his chin on top of Jason's head. Jason couldn't see his expression anymore, but he breathed easier now.

So did Jason.

sometimes i get nishiki i really do

[donnapalude]

crazy how you can loose weight due to having so much anxiety about money that you cut down on groceries and people will still tell you "oh but you look so much better now!" as if that is a normal thing to think let alone say

The best thing about Italy and Europe is that linen just- exists here. I can go buy a shitty cheap 100% linen dress like I would go to Fry's and buy a shitty cheap 100% polyester dress in America. Absolutely revolutionary for my wardrobe. I can't actually buy wardrobe enhancements because I have a carry-on suitcase, but the fact I still have the option is amazing.

the real reason my percico always goes to mcdonalds or eats food JUST from there is that i literally dont know any other fast food chains and what food they have. i ate burger king for the first time in december last year. that's all i know.

thats the most american thing i can make them do and im always sweating while i do it like. "is this... Americano...?"

[forgotten-daydreamer]

vent moment but my health is a bit worse than i let on, which is weird ik since it seems like complain about it all the time here, and apparently i also look sick, because two separate people in their 40s or 50s asked me, 24, if i needed their seat on the bus. kind of them. but humiliating nonetheless.

y’all I’m ngl the arfid has become so bad this week that I am genuinely clinging to water like it’s the best thing ever

[antimnemonic]

I don't even really care about the fantasy tomatoes/potatoes/corn thing. I just like to make dorks squirm.

I'm supposed to still be doing homework but I wanted to pause really quickly because I really think I might be getting better

I hit a wall last week (and hella actually really helped me, but I had to ignore her advice for a few days to see it) where I just kind of realized I don't actually do much to make myself feel better? And like. I want to be so specific that like. I'm feeling physically better these days so it's so much easier (not easy, mind you--I'm still in pain AND mental health is still making it hard, but it's easier)

But like I just had like three days in a row where I just tried to do homework in bed and instead I did NOTHING and I basically talked to no one and I was just making myself miserable and I was like. It's the end of the semester and at this point it's my fault I have so much work. So I need to make a different choice and do it. So I have?

And I spent HOURS doing work yesterday. And it wasn't perfect--I meant to go to an aquaintance's show and I didn't make it, but I did a bunch of work and got some late assignments turned in. And I'm still working today and it's fucking slow going. I thought I was gonna get through two modules (I don't call them that, god hella you've infected my brain) but I still have ten pages left of enlightened sexism (but my focus is a little shot at this point in the day. BECAUSE I SUDDENLY HAVE ENERGY?? like i'm gonna go put my laundry in and like. idk maybe even walk around a bit because i have energy. like not a lot. but for nearly 8pm at night? It's crazy.)

I just. I hope this is the iron and the medication change. Because I've been having such a rough go of it. But I think some of it has been me. I think I got really good at being sick and treating myself like I was sick and I'm not anymore.

Cause like when I was sick I let myself get away with all sorts of bullshit cause 'oh I can't, I don't feel well.'

But I'm getting better. So that means putting on my big person pants and doing shit. Even when it's hard.
