To all the people who I said that I would settle and just go to medical school: I'm sorry, I can't.
I have a unnerving need of rebellion against every institution in our society, a thirst for freedom after all the years I've been kept in a cage for the people in this small town.
I can't fix myself. I'm bad at giving up. Bad at returning to the same place. Bad at staying. Bad at accepting things without questions. And extremely bad at doing anything that doesn't align with my soul.
I believe strongly in living by my own rules. And I really don't know what is my place, maybe I'll create it.
(Also, if anyone read my last posts and thought I would really become a less talkative person, sorry, it didn't last a day.)

man... rhoam's "redemption" in aoc really sucked, huh?
like botw SHOWED us, several times, how much pressure rhoam put on zelda to unlock her powers, despite her telling him, several times, that it wasn't working. he got angry and banned her from doing not only something she saw as useful, but something that she was clearly very interested in and passionate about because she "wasn't dedicating enough time to her prayers." yes, his diary expresses regret for it, but at the end of the day, if zelda saw that it wouldn't mean much to her. the actions rhoam took, and the way zelda grew up under so much pressure that she nearly died as a child in one of the springs (this is in urbosa's diary, iirc) mean so much more than his regrets and his intentions. it took him nearly 10 years to realize that he fucked up, and by that point it was too late. the calamity had returned, and rhoam had lost any chance he had at making things right with zelda.
meanwhile, in aoc, all that's there is some half-hearted scene in the temple of time that's supposed to make everything better? yes, aoc had a very different and arguably better outcome than the calamity that led to botw, but the damage was still done by rhoam. it's still the same hurts and abuse and trauma that he put his daughter through all because of the prophesized calamity.

Space Cowboy
I wrote this song while watching Cowboy Bebop.
He said he's going for a ride
He doesn't know where
But he's got charm, so I laughed it off
He's leaving this world alone
At least that's what he said
So I entertained it and sang:
See you space Cowboy
Hope you find what you're looking for in the galaxy
Take your saddle and go
Just let me know when you come back
'Cause I will be waiting

so murderbot has lived ~4 years since its last mind wipe, and while it would certainly be inaccurate to think of it as a toddler in general, i do think there's some interesting similarities just in terms of feelings being Very Big and it not really having the skills to process them yet

(Review - Meet Cute Diary)
Representation: Achillean trans MC who is attracted to multiple genders, Achillean LI, nonbinary/GNC LI who uses neopronouns & is an androphile.
Noah Ramirez thinks he’s an expert on romance. He has to be for his popular blog, the Meet Cute Diary, a collection of trans happily ever afters. There’s just one problem—all the stories are fake. What started as the fantasies of a trans boy afraid to step out of the closet has grown into a beacon of hope for trans readers across the globe.
When a troll exposes the blog as fiction, Noah’s world unravels. The only way to save the Diary is to convince everyone that the stories are true, but he doesn’t have any proof. Then Drew walks into Noah’s life, and the pieces fall into place: Drew is willing to fake-date Noah to save the Diary. But when Noah’s feelings grow beyond their staged romance, he realizes that dating in real life isn’t quite the same as finding love on the page.
In this charming novel by Emery Lee, Noah will have to choose between following his own rules for love or discovering that the most romantic endings are the ones that go off script
I am genuinely surprised that Drew asking Noah about if he ran the Tumblr blog didn’t go like this:
Drew: “I like your shoelaces”
Noah: “Thanks, I stole them from the president.”
