I fear that "fire bending didn't come easy to zuko" and "zuko isn't a prodigy" (both true) has somehow snowballed into "zuko is a bad or at best average fire bender".... which simply isn't true, especially by the end of book 3

Isami is the one that proposes.
He’s lost Lewis twice, and he’ll be damned if it happens again with his feeling still left unsaid. For a few days after their triumphant return, Isami scours the base for supplies. Thin strands of metal. Shiny things. Paper. String. While Lewis is stuck in the med bay being poked and prodded and worried over, Isami is building. Tinkering. Until he has something that resembles a ring.
A simple stand in for when he can get Lewis something real and pretty. Assuming that big sap even wants a different one later.
Isami doesn’t waste anymore time after it’s finished. He pulls Lewis away from everyone and takes him to the beach.
It seemed like everything happened on the beach.
And he just walks with Lewis. Lewis is still clumsy, not quite used to being back in his human body, but he’s all smiles nonetheless. It warms Isami to his core when Lewis smiles like that. He takes Lewis’ hand to help steady him as they walk. He feels Lewis’ fingers struggle to intertwine with his own, so he meets him halfway, finding the spaces and squeezing the man’s hand until he sees red cheeks and a soft smile.
They find a nice spot to look over the sea they’ve spent so long on at war, and find comfort in cashing waves and cold foam lapping at their feet.
Isami doesn’t think as he kneels in wet sand and digs into his pocket and pulls out his clumsily crafted ring, all mismatched metal and a shiny piece of sea glass he’d managed to find by a miracle. He looks up at Lewis and holds it out.
“Marry me.”
Not so much a question as a statement.
Marry me.
Because Isami isn’t asking. He knows the answer. He’s just confirming. There need not be a question mark at the end, because there’s no uncertainty anymore. They’re Lewis and Isami. Partners. Two halves of a whole.
Tears well in Lewis’ eyes, and Isami’s heart drops for a moment, but his mind is quick to remind him that Lewis is sensitive. His other half is overwhelmed with emotion.
Which makes it so much sweeter when Lewis’ knees buckle and his arms wrap around Isami in a tight hug.
“Yes.”
And it’s music to Isami’s ears.
Yes.
And Isami feels like a weight is lifted from his shoulders, because he won’t lose Lewis again. Because Lewis is his.

Hill I'll die on is anyone saying Jekyll & Hyde's about a guy inventing a potion of makes you evil missed the point his whole philosophy is that everyone has good and evil inside them or at least the capacity for good and evil the whole story is about the duality of human nature he invented a potion of redistributes your nature his problem was when he started getting too fucked up and evil he needed to drink his serum to become good again and when he ran out he was fucked

idk how it would be accomplished but think about pat and havers hanging out. I think they would get along. and cap would never survive.
They would!!! I like to think havers is kinda outdoorsy so he and pat would go on and on about hiking and camping on stuff like that and cap would be in the back just BEAMING with joy because his two boyfriends are getting along <333

anyway. i’m not like rich or even especially financially secure (thankfully stable-ish, i guess, as in i dont worry about going hungry and having my bills paid, but that is of course predicated on No Sudden Expenses) cuz yknow. i live in fuckign seattle and it costs money to even breathe around here and i work retail of all things.
and i don’t in general care about or expect people to pay me back for things unless it is explicitly stated at the time that they will pay me back (and even then, being fairly stable is a pretty sweet deal all things considered so i’m more inclined to be like, dude don’t even worry about it esp if theyre Goin Thru It).
so if my bf never pays me back the exorbitant amount that he owes me its truly not the end of yhe world. however. i do have to note. it sure is hard to build a life together like this! not that marriage is the by all and end all but im for sure not marrying someone who owes me money lmfao.

If shadowpuppet were to get married at some point, who would propose? How? And how would the other react? (I use the translate sorry if it's wrong)
Well... Well... Well...
I cannot help but indulge in answering this.
I like to think that if Mayor and Macaque were to somehow how get on good terms again, and actually somehow start dating, they would end up regularly giving gifts to each other.
And by that I basically mean they try to constantly one up each other.
Giving gifts and trying to make it more meaningful and more significant and more extravagant from the one the other hand gave them before. It's a brutal battle that both of them know neither can win. Regardless, they tend to go wild.
At some point, over the years as their relationship develops, they will indeed talk about marriage. Neither of them want to just propose out of the blue. And so both of them agree that the idea of marriage is nice. Because both of them are quite keen on having a ceremony to celebrate the two of them and only the two of them (but it's just mostly Macaque that thought that way. Because he likes the attention. Mayor on the other hand just wants to go wild with planning the wedding).
Now, that's just the establishing information.
The proposal actually happens when Mayor finally decided to buy a ring and pop the question. The 'ultimate gift' if you will. One to top all others and undoubtedly win the little compitition that had lasted for years.
And so on a date night (the setting is up to you), Mayor simply hands Macaque the ring box, and say it's a gift.
Macaque, the dumbass he is, accepts it carelessly and thinks that it's going to be a dumb gift inside the small box. One that would make him laugh. Probably a silly looking enamel pin or, a weird toy that Mayor found at the dollar store that they thought Macaque would find amusing.
And then Macaque opens it and sees the ring.
And then Mayor goes down on one knee and pops the question, amongst lots of frilly words to butter Macaque up. And guess what? Macaque says yes. Why wouldn't he?
How the wedding plays out is up to you to imagine.
But anyways, are they really going to get married though? Perhaps those two aren't actually the type to actually get married through human mortal customs. In fact...
Demonic mates are still an option, right?
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

apparently one of the guests at my best friend's wedding this summer liked the wedding crossword i wrote enough that she would now like to commission me to write one for her wedding. we don't even know each other so i don't know if this is going to go very well lol. how do i write a crossword for someone i don't know? should we just start hanging out??? the wedding's not till march so we have some time to become besties i guess. would love to be like "yes my commission rates are you take me out to dinner as many times as it takes for me to understand you and your partner as people and as a couple. but it doesn't have to be anywhere fancy. mostly you will be paying me with Intimacy." yes. great idea. what could go wrong

takes like these are extremely funny (not funny haha) considering tumblr has been suppressing Black Lives Matter posts & accounts (as well as pro-Palestine) for literal years and has most recently been banning trans women like a wildfire in August.
so yeah unfortunately all evidence points this site very much indeed being the natural environment for terfs & white supremacists.

So I used to be a pizza deliver driver, and that was pretty great for me; it made me feel like a video game character doing Quests. And when you started your shift as a driver, you got a wad of 15 singles for making change which was deducted from your tips at the end of the night. And this was back in the very early 20teens so $15 American just so happened to also be the price of half a tank of gas and a pack of Marlboro reds, so it was often also a sort of interest-free loan.
Now, a trope in pornography which was once so common that I myself have never actually seen a genuine portrayal of it but only seen it parodied runs thusly: A brave hero is delivering a pizza to some beautiful person who, upon receipt of the pizza, says, "Unfortunately I don't have any money; could I perhaps cover the cost of the pizza with sexual favors?" And always the hero agrees to this Faustian bargain which I'm sure must seem quite reasonable to you uninitiated civilians.
But, see, I'm making minimum wage. I have no savings. And I already spent my bank on half a tank of gas and a pack of Marlboro reds. So I'm $15 in the hole, and do you know what happens when you don't cash out at the end of the night? The manager calls the cops, and the cops come to your house. Mr. Domino is gonna get his $15 back by hook or by crook. I seen it happen. So if I accept the beautiful person's modest proposal, I'm mortgaging future tips against the $15 *and* the price of the pizza--which can get up there, depending on the order--and if I don't fix those books by the end of my shift, that could get to be a real pain in my ass.
Just doesn't make sense, y'know, from like a business perspective. Maybe it'd be worth a gamble. Maybe if it was like a beautiful woman who was a service top and also a werewolf, maybe you roll the dice and hope for the hard 6. But you gotta be risk-aware, is all I'm sayin.

gojo had a dream you died.
it was partially the reason why he woke up in a cold sweat… it was horrid.
he could still hear your screams, the life leaving your eyes, but more importantly, he remembered your final words that were murmured to him. “satoru, don’t… cry, i’ll be okay, it’ll be okay.” and he believed you, that everything would be okay. despite tears filling his eyes, labeled the strongest at that moment, he couldn’t have ever felt so weak.
the dream felt so real, that was the scary part. he remembered each and every detail. from the feeling of you giving his wrist a light squeeze, the sweet smell of your natural scent.. the eerie sounds of your irregular wheezes as you were clinging on your final moments.
“don’t leave me,” he mutters, he remembers saying that. three simple words, yet his dilated pupils spoke a thousand. he started to repeat it. again and again as if it was a mantra. his words, his tone broke the more he spoke to you. that cute smile of yours never left your lips, it remained there. regardless of your inevitable incoming fate, he sobs, “you’re…you’re all i have left. i don’t wanna be left alone again, just stay. please, baby.”
“i’m not going anywhere, ‘toru,” you’d reassure him, a single tear drop of his falls onto your cheek.
after that moment, gojo wakes up. trembling, yet the dream wasn’t that feared him the most. it was him waking up with you not next to him..
cold, everything felt cold.
he shot up immediately from his dream. the cold sweat that forever continued to race down his back as he panted.
he was so used to your warmth taking up part of the bed. albeit, in this case though. it felt empty,
isolated.
it was near the middle of the night, gojo was drowsy, rubbing his eyes to blind his vision with imaginary stars. feeling for the bed, it was frigid.
“baby?” he’d grumble, white lashes partially open. silence called back to him, if it was anything about gojo, he hated being alone.
oh, he loathed it,
yet whenever you came into his life—he didn’t have to worry about that. you were always besides him, no matter what.
until now.
it takes him a split second before it dawns on him. your fatal death, it wasn’t another one of his silly surreal dreams. it was nothing but mere reality.
a breath gets caught in his throat once he realizes, being brought back into harsh realness. you were gone.
it’s been years, speaking of which…
it was your anniversary with him. the same exact day he proposed to you. he remembers it vividly, getting down on one knee with the goofiest grin. he didn’t even say, “will you marry me..?” instead, he snorts a sheepish, “let’s get married, heh.”
“i always forget around this time,” gojo sighs to himself with a soft tone, his voice was a bit raspy from abruptly waking up. intaking a sharp inhale, he goes towards your side of the bed and he reaches into his pocket.
“it should have been me,” and he doesn’t even care he’s talking to himself, it’s like for whatever reason, your presence was near him. “our marriage,” and then with a brief sniffle, he glances down at the ring you once wore proudly. he strokes it with a thumb before huffing out a shaky, “our marriage, it was supposed to last us for infinity…”
but it didn’t.
with hot tears streaming down his face and stuck a power he wished he’d never have, in the end, it couldn’t save you.
he couldn’t save you.
and now…
the strongest, the most brave to ever live and walk could easily be mistaken as the weakest.
