Thank you @fortunatetragedy for the tag! 😊
My prompt: a quote about ideals
Telford: "The ends justify the means. It's my job to get my hands dirty and do the hard thing so others who aren't capable of it won't be called on and fail. It doesn't matter whether I can look at myself in the mirror at the end of the day - the only important thing is reaching the goal I have set for myself. My feelings aren't important."
Young: "I want to be a good man, someone younger men can look up to, someone I can be proud of, someone who doesn't struggle with the difficult decisions. I'd know what the right thing to do is because I'd be a good person."
Rush: "Ideals are a waste of time. Success is the only thing you should be focusing on."
Your prompt: a quote about justification
No pressure tagging: @frostysfrenzy @adriankyte-writes @bagheerita @etoilesombre @ashirisu + open to anyone else who wants a go!

the wonderful @autism-purgatory tagged me for this <3
my prompt: a quote about sleep
sullivan: sleep is essential to the health and well-being of the enlisted man, for his life is often absent other necessities that enable him to better endure the rigors of war, and the days are long and toilsome enough without his becoming deprived of it. i myself insisted on no fewer than six hours a night prior to... meeting mr. royston.
hofer: yeah yeah sleep is fantastic i haven't done it through the night since 1861 i'm making another pot of coffee
royston: did sullivan say i'm depriving him of sleep tho ψ(`︶´)ψ

"it ends in [fire and] blood, as it began. it ends when casterly rock is cracked open, so the sun can shine on the maggots and the worms within. it ends with the utter ruin of house lannister and all its works."

is this old religion, are we calling it love?
{sweet movie, alisha dietzman / @gaphic / tiktok / @iamalivenow / on earth we're briefly gorgeous, ocean vuong / @manywinged / these violent delights, micah nemerever / the reader, bernhard schlink (trans. carol brown janeway) / hestitations outside the door, margaret atwood / a self-portrait in letters, anne sexton}
[ID: ten images of text together in a litstack
1: Confession: I will think of you forever
2: a post by gaphic: It’s only tragedy if you convince yourself, for even just a moment, that everything could be ok, despite knowing it won’t be. Tragedy lies in ‘so close, yet so far.’ It’s avoidable because it would only take a tiny alteration to prevent disaster, but human nature is in the way- not maliciously, not knowingly, despite trying so hard.
3: a tiktok comment and answer: Are they lovers? / Worse
4: a post by iamalivenow: gay sex won't fix this. it'll probably make this worse. that being said don't you want to see how much worse it can get?
5: Sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you've been ruined.
6: tags from manywinged: #technically they know and understand each other better than anyone else alive #but they communicate that in the most fucked up insane unnecessarily complicated way and think thats normal
7: I don't think you've ever felt anything that didn't hurt you. / We've found each other, out of everyone else in the world. Does that hurt, too?
8: "I'm not used to being loved. I wouldn't know what to do."
9: Should we go into it together / If I go into it with you I will never come out
10: of course the love is there. / still, / still, / still.
end ID]

remember when “looks like you’ve managed to completely embarrass yourself in both languages” and when “aaron said it was the worst day of his life” and when “aaron was faster […] he brought neil’s racquet up and around in an underhanded swing so hard and fast that air whistled through the right strings” and “he held onto andrew like he thought andrew would disappear if he let go” and when “‘get out of here,’ he said, and when luther didn’t move fast enough, he screamed, ‘get out of here!’” and when “i don’t care if andrew never speaks to me again. if i could bring him back from the dead and kill him again, i would” and when he said “i’m walking away and pretending i don’t know you” and remember when “you wouldn’t even look at me. you wouldn’t say a word to me unless i said something first. i’m not psychic, how was i supposed to know?” and “he shoved his racquet at nicky and dropped his helmet and gloves on the way to the cheerleaders” and when
