#climbing and falling

[spudcity]

My Hand 

I have put my hand in a baby shepherd’s mouth and watched him whine with pleasure. I have seen him roll on his back with his white stomach facing the sun and paw helplessly. I think he is full of some low form of love, something that Dante would have pitied as he moved from heaven to heaven, something akin to the drowned buttercup or the red woodpecker swinging on his bag of fat. There would be a crease at the corner of Dante’s eye, a roundness in his cheek, that is for that animal alone; a tiny sign interrupting his climbing and his falling, his concentration on justice and liberation.

watching the sdcc panel and i am just very :) about how sweet their answers to “what are some of the micro moments from the game that have stuck with you the most over the years?” are. taliesin saying what the fuck is up with that which was the first like The Party Gets To Know Each Other moments of c3. travis saying asking his wife if he could kiss her in campaign. marisha going way back to the cannonball competition in campaign one. ashley choosing the beauyasha date but also just the silly goat noise matt made. liam adding onto that to compliment matt roleplaying grass so well and then saying his favourite moment was writing a story for laura and reading it to her as caleb for jester. and then matt saying that was his answer, and that his favourite moments of the game are when they find ways to give gifts to each other whether tangible or not. and sam saying his favourite moments have less to do with the story and is more so when he can just. see his friends across the table from him. when marisha perches and when laura and ashley are (badly) drawing dicks and liam saying he loves when sam sneezes and ashley tells him to stop it and just. yeah. they Are an extremely popular online powerhouse, but i’m so happy that they’re also friends building a world together out of gifts to and love for one another.

like i Am so enamoured with the characters and the world of exandria but the moments when you can feel the love that those people have for each other reach out from behind the stained glass of their performances (to steal a metaphor from brennan lee mulligan) are so extremely special and i am endlessly grateful that they decided to share their silly little home game with the world.

The real plot of season 7

[mooblooms-and-glares]

Where's that poll from the beginning of Limited Life where someone asked who we thought would be the wettest cat by the end of the season? I'm pretty sure Skizz won but we were all so so very wrong because I don't think Etho was even an option.

thinking about it now i can feel the emotional rollercoaster brennan for sure went through when the gang was escaping out the window and ally nearly tried to cast spider climb from the book because like. if they had tried they'd have realized the book was missing immediately but then at the last second the group chose to cast feather fall instead. they were 2 seconds away from blowing up all of brennan's plans and changing the course of the story and nobody knew. true stone faced dm moment.

Here is the place where I love you ✨

In the hush of midnight, Lucy Gray gently roused little Clementine from slumber so she could finally witness the ✨glowing bugs✨that uncle Sejanus told her about. Initially reluctant to leave her cozy bed, Clementine's grumpy expression melted away into pure delight as she beheld the twinkling lights dancing around her.

Meanwhile Coriolanus waking up to his wife and child gone “Lucy Gray? LUCY GRAY?!” Waking up the little one in the progress…🥀

Satoru Gojo’s cursed abilities began to manifest at the age of two. By five he could read and write with ease, he could do basic arithmetic, and had better special reasoning than most adults. It was a given that his secondary traits would manifest early, and the clan was happy to welcome a dominant alpha to the family. Except—

He wasn’t.

The revelation that their messiah was an omega, frankly, appalled most of the Gojo Clan, but they wouldn’t deny their interest in a few incredibly powerful offspring.

By the time Satoru had truly and fully manifested at the age of fourteen, they had already thrown a few dozen alpha suitors his way — he had his pick of any of them, he could just drop out and raise children like a good omega. Except— he wouldn’t.

Satoru insisted on school, where it quickly became apparent that he would outclass even the strongest alphas. The clan was once again disgusted with him; the way he behaved, his strength and charisma, it simply wasn’t like an omega. He should be demure, and sweet, and happy to let everyone else order him around. Except he wasn’t.

He showed absolutely no signs of omega tendencies, except for infrequent heats, which were so mild he didn’t even need to take time off school. The clan had hopes that maybe that alpha boy he was always hanging around would get Satoru to settle down and mate, but no luck. When asked about this, Satoru said he found alphas “boring,” and would “rather drink bleach than fuck one.” The clan decided it would be best to wait a few years before broaching the topic of marriage again.

It wasn’t until his final year at Jujutsu High that Satoru showed any sign of libido at all. Lounging on the porch, ignoring his English tutor, staring out as the gardener tended to the koi pond. Then— Satoru bolted upright.

The tutor startled. “What? What is it?”

Satoru pointed. “Who is that?”

It took a second for the old man to spot who he was referring to. Someone else had joined the Gardner at the pond, peering down into the golden arc of fish. “The groundskeeper’s child.” A follow up question formed on his lips, “Why—“

Why are you interested when you’ve never shown an inkling of curiosity about anyone else in your entire life? But it died just as quick.

Satoru was staring at the gardener’s child with a look that could only be described as hungry. The shortened breath, dilated eyes, and flushed cheeks were unmistakable, although the unhinged grin he wore was a bit unusual (and unsettling). Nevermind whatever was going on below the belt.

“I want her,” Satoru said. Unshakable, bottomless lust— now that was just like an omega. Finally, he was experiencing a true heat, triggered by the presence of a potential mate.

Except—

“Gojo… that’s a beta.”

small little detail that i love is that after finding out luffy nearly froze to death climbing the drum peak for 3 hours his reaction to knowing about the ropeway was "oh there's a ropeway? cool lol" and not a hint of regret or frustration at not knowing about it a few hours earlier
