how a life can move from the darkness [2/?]

|1|

Brief summary before the cut: Two drug addicts (Eren and Historia) meet in group and decide to be roommates to make their living situation slightly less weird. From there we do the slow burn found family dance mixed in with the struggles and agonies of recovery. Heavy on friendship feels, especially EMA. Eventual yumikuri.

Frieda’s first real visit, where she was actually visiting her sister, not being their babysitter, ended with orders for them to invest in a pet. She didn’t phrase it particularly demandingly. She only said it once, and didn’t bring it up the rest of the night. She barely raised her voice loud enough to be heard over the stove.

She’d walked in on them during one of their mutual wall/ceiling viewing parties.

It was an order.

“No dogs.”

“Okay.”

“Or cats.”

“Okay.”

“Or ferrets.”

“Okay.”

Eren pulled his jacket tighter. The zipper was broken. He should have worn a sweatshirt. He walked down the sidewalk, foot hitting every crack and head wondering if his mom would have preferred a broken back to a broken heart. “Nothing that can get out and crawl around the apartment.”

Historia, behind the personal barrier that used to be the map to the pet store, said, “Eren, we’re getting a fish.”

“Oh,” Eren said. “Okay.” Pause. “Just one?”

“Do you want more than one?”

Eren wasn’t sure he wanted one. He wasn’t sure he wanted one of anything else, either. He mostly wanted Historia’s sister to worry less. He felt like he had two moms these days, and he was letting down both of them. “I… do fish get lonely?”

“Don’t know.”

That made two of them.

An hour, a very talkative employee, and five pamphlets later, Eren still didn’t have an answer to his question, and knew more about nitrate cycles than high school or Armin had ever bothered with. He also found out that the same yearly school field trip to the aquarium each year had taught him nothing about aquariums.

Pumps, vacuums, filters, water treatments, thermometers. Food. Tanks bigger than he could lift.

Armin would have loved this.

One text and he’d probably explain exactly what they wanted and what kind of fish to look for better than the sales guy, and ask if they wanted him to come help out in person with the selections. The trip wouldn’t be giving Eren a headache and he wouldn’t have visions of all the fish they were going to fail dancing in his head.

Armin wasn’t there, and Eren would have to read one of the hundreds of texts from him to find out if there was even a chance of changing that in this reality. Without hating himself so much he couldn’t breathe.

Historia was in the same leaky boat he was, so by the time the sales guy let them go with instructions to look around the store and figure out what kind of aquarium they’d like, Eren really had no idea why they were getting a fish. Besides the merit points from a successful purchase. If they pulled this off without anything dying, it would be like a giant neon sign announcing to the world that they were sort of functional.

The neon sign would not be going near the fish, because that screwed with the lighting, and that, according to the midpoint of their free lecture, would be bad.

“Did you have a breed in mind?” he asked Historia. The damp, weighty smell surrounding them made him feel like he was underwater and drowning. “Or a color?”

“You can pick,” Historia said.

Eren hadn’t met their new fish yet, but he felt sorry for it.

One of them had to put some kind of executive effort into this. Historia was paying for everything. That left him. He could handle walking around and figuring out which fish they were going to try like hell not to kill.

Sometime during their tutorial, they’d ended up in the tropical section. Everything was bright and smelled like the ocean. Eren’s eyes had spent the last ten minutes burning, and now that it was just him and Historia, he was having trouble keeping them from leaking.

Armin and Mikasa should have been there.

They weren’t, and they couldn’t be, and that was his own damn fault, and he didn’t want them there—

“Eren?”

He looked up from the stained concrete floor.

Historia had zoned back in, and was watching his clenched, shaking, fists. He tried to relax them. It didn’t work. He was standing in the middle of a fish store, trying not to cry, and he couldn’t hit anything because then he probably would kill a fish, and Historia being filthy rich wouldn’t fix how awful and pissed that would make him feel, and before he knew it he’d be back behind Zeke’s batting cages, hearing all of the offers the dealer was making and actually listening.

“Eren,” Historia’s voice said, firmly.

“Yeah.” His was too far away, somewhere under the waves of the ocean. But he blinked and he was looking at the bright colors, not the floor, and a quick swipe cleared the damp spots away from under his eyes. “Salt water’s okay, right?”

He could see her nod. Her footsteps followed him down the aisle, and he concentrated on looking at the damn colorful fish. He had no idea what to look for. The sales guy had set them loose with a happy smile, telling them that if they found something they liked, he’d help out with the step-by-step of what to buy first.

There were more steps to this than Eren ever wanted to think about, which probably meant it was healthy to try.

His eyes floated over to a tank on the other side of the aisle. Less colorful, and full of rocks. A lone fish roved back and forth inside, dark spines the size of his fingers swishing along with it. It looked like someone had chopped up a sea urchin and glued its spikes to a large brown goldfish with streaky frills. A lionfish, someone else’s happy voice reminded him, carrying the sound of hurriedly flipped pages.

He didn’t hate the thought of caring for one of those.

He walked over to the tank, crouching down to stare at the thing properly. The card sitting by the tank agreed with his memory. And the fish was too big to mistake for an art fixture. It looked like a real creature; a real pet, not just something to lock away and call personal growth. Alive and fierce. Frieda would approve.

��What do you think?” he asked Historia.

She watched the lionfish swish into one of its rock caves. They both did.

“Okay.”

By the time they were back in their apartment, and the giant tank with all its mixed water and pumps and gravel and sand and rock features was set up, and they were staring at it instead of a blank wall, Eren understood a little better why they were getting a fish.

He doubted it was the upgrade Frieda was aiming for. He also doubted they could do any better.

---

A week into cycling the tank, Eren found the will for the conversation he’d put off since moving in.

Eren wasn’t big on letting people take care of him. His mom could attest to that. To hear her tell it, the day he started crawling, he’d spent all his time crawling away from her. Bandaging his skinned knees as a toddler had taken an hour of convincing before he’d let his—

He didn’t like being kept, or treated like he couldn’t handle his own life. After rehab, he lost the right to that mattering. His mom wasn’t going to accept her grown son’s rent when he needed babying, and he didn’t have the energy to push past the shame and argue.

Things were different now.

He hoped.

Historia was his sponsor, not his mother, and he was hers. He’d seen the bill for their aquarium. Pre-fish (they were giving the tank a month before they picked up its resident). He’d lived in their apartment. He’d seen Historia throw things into their shopping cart without checking prices. She paid for it from a wallet full of holes, but she never cared about the cost or bothered with coupons.

He knew Historia and her family had more money than he would even know what to do with. He knew he couldn’t afford his share if they split it honestly. He didn’t care. He was an adult. He worked. He could help pay for his own sad life.

It was important, Petra had said once, to remember that they were still part of the world. Addiction was what kept them out of it; recovery meant finding their way back in.

That was one of the first meetings he went to. He’d broken a fingernail gripping his chair and acid had boiled up his throat. Petra’s cookies had been too soft, and he ate three to make the taste go away.

Things were better now. He was cutting up carrots for dinner in an apartment that he didn’t share with someone he had hurt.

“I want to start paying rent,” Eren said.

Historia, alternating between reading her textbook and watching a pot boil, briefly added him to the rotation. “I told you, you don’t have to.”

“I want to,” Eren repeated, wincing at the extra volume his voice picked up. “I’m not some helpless little kid who needs handouts. I can pull my own weight.” Even if he’d been happy acting like he couldn’t up until now. What the fuck was wrong with him. He kept talking, trying to skid over that thought before he crashed into it. “I can’t keep taking advantage of people.”

“You’re not,” Historia said. She leaned against the counter, frowning. “I’m the one who asked you to move in so I could stop worrying my sister. You don’t need to pay me for being selfish.”

“That isn’t the point,” Eren said.

Historia continued as if she didn’t hear him. “Besides, I’m not paying for any of this either.”

“That’s—look, Historia, I’d just…” Eren took a deep breath, because breathing exercises were supposed to help. They didn’t, but they were supposed to, and he couldn’t say some of the horrible things his mind came up with if he was inhaling. He screwed what was left of his useless courage and doubled down. “It would help my recovery a lot if I could help out with some of this.”

The words were terrible and lifeless, straight out of the meetings they both hated, and he should have stuck a thank-you somewhere in the middle, because he owed her everything for the help he was squirming out of.

Historia was looking at the ceiling. Her mouth was half-open, and Eren thought she agreed that he was back to saying all of the wrong things.

“My father’s paying for it,” she said quietly.

A block of ice coalesced in Eren’s chest.

“Oh,” Eren said, because even if she wasn’t talking about the dead one, she’d only ever mentioned the dead one before, and they both had dead ones and—he swallowed. Breathed. They’d never really gone over it, but Historia was easy enough to spot, and he’d gone to enough protests and rallies to know that blank silence was the worst thing he could do here, even if they weren’t talking about her. He smiled, jaw creaking with effort and soul cringing. “Your dad was gay?”

Timing meant he was expecting pain to get in the way of any relief. He was sure he was intruding on memories that weren’t any of his business, and even if he was trying to be a supportive friend, he was terrible at it, and they were now back to a place where he knew he’d be making things worse.

What he got was perplexed bewilderment.

“…What?”

He was definitely going to make this worse. “You—you said your dad was dead,” Eren said, slowly enough to be insulting on its own, “but your dad’s paying for the apartment, so that means you have—had, sorry—two?”

Historia stared at him.

She blinked, once, mouth forming a legion of unspoken words.

Eren, realizing he should have just shoved checks under her door each month, stayed standing awkwardly in front of the cutting board, waiting for the axe to fall and fervently regretting the lack of pills nearby.

“Eren,” Historia said at last, words warbling furiously, “my inheritance is paying for all of this. He put me in his will. Frieda wouldn’t let me—she thinks using it is good for my—” She looked across the room at the fishless aquarium.

“I’m supposed to spend it,” she said. Her mouth twitched, a muffled sort of chuckle escaping. Followed by another.

A peal of laughter whimpered from her lungs, ragged and horrified, and Historia was sliding down to the floor, hand pressed to her forehead while the fit of hysteria took over, giggles turning to honest cackles, tearing through the kitchen. Eren watched. He just stood there and watched.

Because she only had one dad, and she’d killed him.

He was dead.

The sob waiting in Eren’s chest came out wrong, not matching the horror and helplessness swirled in it, or the feel of blood warm in his hands as he tried to stop it all from spilling out even though it was too late, and he slipped down to the floor next to Historia, biting down on his thumb to keep from laughing.

By the time Frieda came by, bringing her weekly gift of ice cream, they were both crying.

---

Historia said they could work out splitting the fish costs and groceries, and there really wasn’t a reason to bring it up past that, so they didn’t.

Frieda didn’t, either.

Eren had the disturbing feeling that she understood.

---

Reiner wasn’t outside when Eren showed up for their run.

That was weird to start with. Reiner was as fanatically devoted to taking care of himself as he had been to heroin. Not just physically. He had a day planner. He’d offered to buy Eren one. The guy did not know how to flake.

Standing out in front of the house in Reiner’s usual spot was a woman Eren recognized from some of Reiner’s pictures. He’d flipped through them every single day of rehab, and Eren had wanted him dead.

He didn’t remember the woman’s name. She was scrolling through her phone when he jogged up, and the nod she gave him wasn’t very inviting. Dark circles shaded her freckles, but she was wearing workout clothes. Maybe Eren had missed a text, and he was helping out both of them today.

“Reiner still inside?” he asked.

“Yeah,” the woman said, pocketing her phone. “That’s where he’s staying, too. Bastard’s too sick to be conscious, forget running around the block.”

Too sick to warn Eren, too.

He was paying Eren. They were only sort of friends. Missing out on a run with him still made Eren want to crawl into the nearest hole and not come out. Reiner wasn’t exactly a bright spot to his day, but his day had started with a text from Armin. Reiner never made anything worse. Him and his normalcy had been something to look forward to when Eren woke up and threw his phone through his pillowcase.

World much gloomier than it needed to be at six in the morning, Eren said, “Is there anything I can help with? There’s a drugstore—” he wasn’t going to think about it, he wasn’t going to think about it— “a couple miles out I could hit for him.”

“Thanks, but I think Bert’s got the panicked nursing covered.”

Bertolt, Eren had met. He was usually watering the rosebush outside the house at the end of their morning run. “Great,” Eren said.

That left him… where? Needing to send a get-well text?

He made polite eye contact with Reiner’s friend. Like a person. “I’ll head off, then,” he said. “Let Reiner know today’s on me.”

The woman smirked at him. It might have been meant as a smile, but the glint in her eyes and Eren’s mood said smirk. “You have a side job exercising strangers,” she said. “Don’t volunteer to throw away money.”

Before Eren could point out that he wasn’t a dick, even if she was, she added, “Anyway, that’s what dragged me into this. Reiner thinks routines are part of the ex-junkie bible, and he didn’t want to screw you up just because he forgot to wash his hands. So I’ll be palling around with you this morning to assuage your mutual guilt complexes. You’re welcome.”

Eren had to unclench his jaw before he could speak. He wanted to go back to bed. He also wanted to go inside the house and wring Reiner’s fucking neck. The happy chittering of the birds sounded like cheaply ringing tin in his ears. “Reiner told you?”

Reiner told anyone?

Eren didn’t tell his friends that his client asked for makeup advice he didn’t have to cover up his track marks. He didn’t talk about Reiner’s lifelong fear of needles not holding a fucking candle to his snowballing drug habits. He didn’t breathe a damn word about any of it, not even in group, not even with the names taken out, because why the fuck would he do that to anyone.

“Don’t lose your head about it,” the woman’s voice echoed. “It only came up because he was already wetting himself over missing your appointment.” Her shoes thumped across the concrete, and Eren felt a slap against his shoulder. “He was worried, and hurling too much for his brain to keep a lid on why. He freaked out all over again when he realized what he said. He was trying to be a good friend, not an asshole. He just has a bad habit of mixing the two.”

Eren’s fingernails were digging into his palms. He had to concentrate to make them stop, but they stopped, and without the sting that said he broke the skin.

Deep breaths. The ones that never really worked.

“It’s fine,” he said.

“Right,” said the woman. He could feel her watching him. The scrutiny reminded him of the rehab shrink. Or a more hostile Petra. “Sorry. Usually I only bring up sensitive subjects on purpose.”

Eren didn’t know how much of a joke that was. He decided it didn’t matter. He reeled his head back to a zone where he knew how to handle all of this, even if he didn’t, reminded himself it was too early in the morning for him to shoot Historia a text asking for commiseration, and breathed normally.

“Do you need some time to stretch, or are you good to go now?” Eren asked.

The woman gave a one-armed shrug. “Feel free to run away from me at your leisure. I’m just here to take up space.” She watched him another moment before sticking out her hand. “Ymir, by the way.”

Eren shook it with as much heart as he didn’t have. “Eren.”

Her smile was all teeth. “Nice meeting you.”

----

Reiner wasn’t the only person who was sick, it turned out.

Eren knew he had to do something about the phone problem. This was a marked improvement from not thinking of it as a problem. He didn’t think he could steal credit for that. The outside world was screaming it at him. Armin had taken up regular texts like clockwork, and if that meant something was wrong, Eren didn’t know how to check without losing his mind. Being a fuckup and a coward would do that. Mikasa’s daily texts had never stopped. Hannes had gotten back to him about supervising some free climbers over the weekend. His first since his broken leg.

His pulse hadn’t dropped a beat when that conversation ended and a disaffected buzz announced a message from Zeke.

Zeke had barely spoken to him since the funeral. He’d walked him in and out of the rehab facility doors and left him alone. It wasn’t that different from the way things were before their dad died. The only change was him not dropping by unannounced to take Eren off on some adventure. If he’d tried that recently, no one had mentioned it. Eren wasn’t sure anyone had even bothered giving him his new address.

A text from Zeke out of the blue was a danger sign. Eren couldn’t just ignore it. He also couldn’t click on it.

Pacing the entire length of the apartment back and forth and back again, Eren could admit he had a problem. Step one. The last time that revelation had crept up and slammed him into a gutter, it was one of the worst moments of his life. This didn’t compare, but it left him feeling lopsided and tired. He couldn’t ignore his brother. Zeke had never ignored him. He had every reason in the world to, but he never had. Eren owed him.

He couldn’t open the damn text.

He made another agitated circuit around the apartment. His phone wasn’t set to tick down seconds, but they were playing back in his head fine without the help. He was rounding the couch, checking the aquarium and wishing they already had a fish to stare at—like that had a chance of helping, but maybe it did—when the loud clap of a slamming textbook stopped him in his tracks.

Historia, who he hadn’t noticed, was lying on the floor. Until a millisecond of time passed for her to gather her temper and she stood up from the rug, swept over, and threw out her hand.

Eren, who hadn’t come up with a better plan yet, gave her his phone. She almost took his hand off with it.

“Under Zeke,” he said. In case she mistook him for someone who had decided today was the time to finally go through and acknowledge the hundreds of unread texts Armin and Mikasa had sent him.

Historia scanned the screen in slow motion. “Someone’s sick,” she said, and visions of hospitals gone by and panic started up before she filled in the rest. “He wants to know if you can sub in for the game on Saturday.”

Baseball. No emergency. Baseball.

Eren breathed out, sighing. Relief was missing from it. He didn’t know why he had expected anything else. A quiet, petty hole that rehab hadn’t filled all the way was still waiting for Zeke to say something about what happened. He never would, and he was an ungrateful bastard for wanting more than what he’d got. What he’d got was more than he deserved. If Zeke never talked to him about anything but baseball, Eren would live with that.

That could really happen, too. Zeke loved baseball like he’d never loved anyone in his own damn family—

Eren moved to take back his phone before his head started something his fists couldn’t finish. Historia’s temper flare had vanished, and she dangled the device between them like it was the bomb about to go off instead of them. She made it look as large and unwieldy in her hands as it felt in Eren’s thoughts. He didn’t know why that helped. He wasn’t even sure if it did.

With how the day was going, Eren couldn’t be surprised when it buzzed with another text the second his finger brushed the casing. Historia jumped slightly, and Eren hated his eyes for catching the name on the screen.

Because Armin had started texting him again.

Great.

He was looking at the floor. Historia kept holding the phone. The bomb.

Great, great, great, great.

Eren could feel his breath shortening, his blood pumping faster, and he was supposed to be getting a grip and trying to be better than all of this and he wanted to break something. More things than he had the first time, or the second, or the third, or the twelfth, because all of those times hadn’t made the right impression, Armin was still trying, and so was Mikasa, and he was so sick of it, and himself, and Zeke, and—

“Have you ever been to a batting cage?” Eren blurted out.

Historia took a moment to answer. “What?” she said.

“Batting cage,” Eren said, feeling a tension headache building. “Have you ever been?”

“No?”

Ten minutes later, Eren didn’t think he felt a whole lot better, but nothing was broken, he hadn’t hurt anyone, and Historia wasn’t complaining about the sprinters’ pace they were walking down the sidewalk at. He didn’t think that last one was a point in his favor. She hadn’t given him his phone back. It was still a good thing. Someone was around to keep him from being stupid.

He led the way with a nervous energy that he hated. He knew how his body was supposed to work. It wasn’t a natural like Mikasa’s—and that turned the notch up on his leg speed one more time—but he’d spent time on it, and he knew how he liked to move. Purposefully. With real energy that came from the core. Not nervous sweats and clenched fists.

There were two batting cages within walking distance of their apartment. One, neither of them needed to be anywhere near. The other was fine, and normal, and open until midnight. Glazed lights decking a row of fence were visible from the street. The padded green of the fake grass stapled to every inch of the facility’s floor wasn’t. Two pairs of feet thumped across it to the cashier’s window out front.

Eren forked out the cash from his wallet to the drowsy employee manning the entrance before Historia had a chance to object. They marched on through without a word.

It was cool and dark outside, even with the glare of the lights, and Eren stuffed a helmet on his head from the rack and grabbed a bat before his thoughts slowed down enough to race in coherent circles. He couldn’t hit people anymore, but he sure could hit objects.

Historia was still trailing behind him, and she’d never been and he would help with that in a second after he took care of him, and watching was where it all started anyway it wasn’t like he was that great with words like—

He smacked the start button. His other hand clasped the bat, touching metal where the glue had peeled away from the grip. He raised it over his shoulder, a million lessons from a man who looked too much like his father coursing through his veins, and he was holding a metal pole and watching the blood spurt over it and his hands and

and

He remembered to hit the emergency stop and he made it to the trash can. That was the important part.

Fuck.

He didn’t know where the bat was, but all his hands were holding was the plastic bag around the rim of the trash can. His head was dipped down next to a collection of empty Styrofoam cups, gum, and vomit. The acidic burning in his throat waited for a swallow. The rest of him stayed still, waiting for the next hit.

That hadn’t happened before. He’d thought of it happening, but it never did. He hadn’t thrown up since he bet Jean he could drink an entire case of soda in first grade. He won. His mom still had a special sigh for that stain on the carpet.

Eren pulled himself out of the garbage. His knee was shaking. Badly enough to bring up more problems, so he sat down on the fake grass and let it scratch his fingers. He swallowed through the burning, and pressed a fist to his forehead.

Fuck.

Footsteps approached. Another cup showed up by his head. Not empty. Eren took it and sipped the water, and it was just like any other workout.

The only thing he could think of that would make it any worse was if he started crying, and he felt like he was going to.

Historia sat down next to him.

“Do you… want to talk about it?” she asked. She sounded like she was reading off a script. She was still holding his phone.

Eren hated his fucking phone. He wanted to throw it into a landfill.

He took a breath, and another sip of water. Besides the phone, which could go to hell, the hate felt cooler. Like all the lava out under the sky was turning into something solid. He’d liked Armin’s volcano phase. It’d been his phase, too. Like with the dinosaurs, and that one summer with pelicans.

He’d kill to be talking to Armin about pelicans right now. Instead he was sitting on a batting cage floor, the only support system he was strong enough to bear sitting right next to him instead of studying for her test like she was supposed to, and his lips were covered in drying bile, and he’d killed his dad.

Admitting he had problems wasn’t too hard when they were this obvious.

Eren opened his fist and dragged his hand through his hair.

“Do you have anyone?” Eren asked quietly. “That you have to make amends to?”

The answer was instantaneous, and not much of a surprise. “Frieda.”

Eren twisted his bangs around his fingers. Only a little of him wanted to tug it all out by the roots. “Not family. People you screwed up because they liked you and liking you meant they were around when you fucked up your life. Friends.”

Historia didn’t say anything for a whole minute.

“No,” she said.

That one was more of a surprise. It shouldn’t have been, because she was his roommate, and he had a pretty wide window into her life, but it was, and now Eren felt like even more of a dick. He dropped his hand into his lap and silently added Historia to his list. Maybe she’d be one he could actually cross off.

He didn’t know what to say next, because ‘sorry,’ was more of a distraction than he could deal with while being this useless, but as long as he was sober, he wasn’t the kind of person who wanted to just leave that bombshell alone.

Historia took pity on him and sighed.

“I had a fiancée in juvie.”

Eren blinked. He lifted his head. “You can get engaged in juvie?” he asked.

“You were in juvie?” was close behind, and he felt stupid enough thinking it to avoid saying it, because no matter how tiny she was, saying he had trouble picturing his drug addicted, father-murdering roommate doing time was…

“It’s not something you have to fill out paperwork for,” Historia said, continuing blithely on. “It’s just a promise. Words.” She shook her head. “It doesn’t matter. She was older, so she got out before I did, and after that, I never heard from her again. We never even—” Historia stopped herself. Her eyes shut. “She probably didn’t even mean it. It started as a joke.”

It didn’t sound like it came from any sense of humor he’d known. Historia wasn’t laughing. Neither was Eren. He took another sip of the water she’d found him before he crushed the cup and it spilled all over his jeans.

“She doesn’t even know my real name,” Historia said, almost inaudibly. Her blinks sped up. “She was gone before my drug habit could disappoint her. She would have—” Historia snorted and there was something dark and chaotic in her smile.

“She would have killed me.”

This was a joke she got. Eren didn’t.

They sat in silence for a few moments, sitting on the scratchy fake grass. Eren spotted his bat on the floor next to the open cage.

“I have these friends,” he said, “that I don’t know how to…”

Trailing off was as close as he could get to articulating it. Historia could probably figure out the gist by living with him. Tonight wasn’t the first time his phone had caused problems, it was just the first time he’d made them her problem.

“The text before we left looked like some sort of science fact-a-day,” Historia said. “Frieda has a subscription to a few things like that.” He could feel her watching him. Months of feeling like everyone was watching him had honed the sense. “He’s probably copying you on them.”

That sounded like Armin. The perfect way to start talking without saying anything.

He waited for anger to spike with the thought, but he just felt tired.

He looked at the baseball bat. Historia followed his look.

“Zeke’s my half-brother,” he said. “I owe him, but if Saturday’s anything like this I’d be better off not showing up at all.”

Historia said, easily, “I’ll fill in for you.” Like any of his friends would have after he dragged them out of their apartment in the middle of the night to have a panic attack in front of them.

Being too stubborn to admit that he needed help was what had gotten him here. He didn’t want to stay. He didn’t think anyone wanted him to.

“Have you ever played baseball?”

“No.”

Zeke was going to love this.

---

Zeke did.

He’d also shaved.

Eren hadn’t seen him without a beard in years. It was weird, made him look like he belonged at some sort of board meeting, and every time they made eye contact Eren needed a second to find his brother in the face.

What he didn’t find, and what he’d been scared of seeing, was their dad.

He didn’t know if he was allowed to say thank you. They didn’t really do that. Zeke hadn’t said anything about Historia showing up as the sub for his sub. He was grateful, since the tiny adult baseball league was his entire life, and he’d be heartbroken if he missed out on any of it, but he didn’t say it. Not with Eren. There was just this quiet expectation that it would all work out, because they were brothers. No thanks necessary.

Not being the one playing, Eren had too much time to think about that.

Now, after the game, sitting across from his brother at the pizza parlor Zeke had selected instead of the bar he’d taken his team to every game day for at least five years, Eren was still thinking about it.

“Your roommate doesn’t have a bad arm,” Zeke said. “Do you think she’d want to join up?”

“You’d have to ask her.” Historia had gone outside when Colt ordered a beer, and he didn’t know if she’d noticed that Yelena had spent the entire seventh inning stretch and drive over asking too many questions, but it was mostly going okay. She’d caught a fly ball and gotten a hit, and their team won. They’d both had worse days.

“I might, if you can’t play.”

Eren’s hand tensed around his drink.

Zeke wouldn’t ask. Somebody had shown up, so he wouldn’t ask. Eren still couldn’t shake the feeling that he knew. Even if there was no way he could. Zeke was like that. Hide and seek had turned into a banned game the nights Zeke babysat. No matter how hard Eren tried, Zeke always found him, and his mom had gotten sick of coming home to him exploding in frustration.

Eren wanted him to ask. Zeke came to Eren instead of hitting up Mikasa when he needed a sub. He cared. Eren wanted to feel it instead of just knowing it, for once.

He was an ungrateful brat, in a lot of ways.

Zeke paid for the pizza. Historia eventually walked back in and sat with them. Zeke asked about school, and rock climbing, and what they thought about the batting order they’d tried.

He didn’t ask about Eren.

Which was fine. What would he have said, anyway? He was ghosting his best friends in the world while they tried to keep him in their lives. He didn’t get to miss his big brother for having the brains to stay out of it all.

TOTD... Frieda Hannah’s Wrap

Today’s style was inspired by a scarf combination suggestion made by my good friend and fellow Wrapsister Frieda Hannah Christina Anne. It combines the Eyes of Blue Pashmina with the ensemble look worn by Andrea Herzog in the Wrapunzel add for the golden Israeli tichels. The styling incorporates features Frieda Hannah is fond of, such as pleats and an overall balanced feel to the wrap. I’m hoping she loves this wrap 💙💙💙

I am extremely grateful to Frieda Hannah for this suggestion as I would not have this amazing combination without her.

For this look I made one change from the kit Aundrea is wearing. In the photo she is wearing the taupe golden Israeli and I have chosen to wear the saffron golden Israeli.

The headband is the one from the chocolate dreams kit.

I am wearing a Wendy Beret Volumizer in the colour black.

In the photos I’m wearing blue makeup, including blue lipstick which is in the tutorial I filmed for this look. I did however change it when filming the introduction because it was a bit too much.

The tutorial will be up on my YouTube channel for your viewing pleasure this evening.

Have a Wraptastic day Ladies💙💙💙

[TASK 189: NAMIBIA]

In celebration of March 21st being Namibian Independence Day, here’s a masterlist below compiled of over 190+ Namibian faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever faceclaim or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC��s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)

STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.

THINGS YOU CAN MAKE FOR THIS TASK - examples are linked!

Stumped for ideas? Maybe make a masterlist or graphic of your favourite faceclaims. A masterlist of names. Plot ideas or screencaps from a music video preformed by an artist. Masterlist of quotes and lyrics that can be used for starters, thread titles or tags. Guides on culture and customs.

-Frieda Salas

Frieda totally can’t even. You can call her Fri, Fri-Fri orr Freezy! She LOVES cats, and watching makeup tutorials on the internet and 80’s and 90’s fashion. She considers herself a hipster and activist for equal rights. Unlike her older sister, Frieda embraces her paleness. She often narrates her life in her head, as if she were in a romantic comedy.

Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles - 10+ - https://shorthaircutsmodels.com/kate-bosworths-short-haircuts-and-hairstyles/ - Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, Next sprinkle volumizing powder or dry shampoo Brager Kevin Murphy recommends puffing powder for added texture to hair lengths. Then, starting at the top of the ears, tie the hair into a half-up half-down knot, including the ends of your braid. Secure with a clear elastic band. Any part of his face was left to tuck behind his ears. Finish the look with Hairspray. Brager recommends bumble, and bumble does it all. Naturally Kate is perfect with both long and short hair. Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, But change is good. And we're excited to see what comes out of the pipeline that requires such dramatic chops. For this tousled texture, Josh steamed the John Frieda Beach Blonde Sea Waves sea salt spray over towel-dried hair and then dried it with a diffuser and fingers. He added some polish when needed and smoothed the top with a flat iron. You want to show me your name. Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, my bag, your new bag. Actress Kate Bosworth rocks her bag which she received while her name Kate was recently outgoing. Apart from the custom handbag she wears her long locks in a straight hairdo to complete the edgy outfit. Kate Bosworth's Short Hairstyles Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, But warns his longtime friend and hairdresser Harry Josh, you wouldn't dare say he's skipping a trend. While the Bobs are huge at the moment, Kate's focus is on her craft. She has several big upcoming roles so she knew the cut would be as good as she explains as her long hair was bound. Josh broke his 10-inch locks while visiting his home in New York City. Kate Bosworth's Haircuts and Hairstyles Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, FYI, supermodel Helena Christensen was there because they were all eating together like Gorgeous, Beautiful People. Her stylist John Frieda Beach Bosworth towel dried hair into blonde sea waves of sea salt to get the look spritzed. Josh then used a diffuser and his fingers to work on the product until it dried. He eventually used his signature Pro Tools ceramic forming iron to add definition to the waves and straighten the top of the star's hair. Kate Bosworth's Hairstyles Kate Bosworth's Short Haircuts and Hairstyles, What do you think of Kate Bosworth's new bob haircut? Sound off in the comments section and take inspiration from the more famous tousled bob hair in the slideshow below. Earlier today celebrity hairdresser Harry Josh thrilled us all when he posted this Instagram photo with the headline OK I just cut literally a foot off a mystery actress. It will be unveiled on the red carpet tonight. A photo posted by Harry Josh @harryjoshhair on January 13, 2020 at 9.44 am PST now we know the identity of this mystery actress. Kate Bosworth. Here's her new cut that got her for her upcoming role in 90 minutes in Paradise debuting her hair according to her own. Kate Bosworth's Short Hair Instagram pic. A photo posted by Harry Josh @harryjoshhair on January 13 2021 at 12.43 PM PST recently saw a lot of actresses getting this kind of tousled bob but this may be my favourite band. She looks gorgeous and her hairstyle is perfect. After filming was completed, Kate voted that she should keep this look for a while. We Love actress hair because it looks chic. Here we take some photos of Kate Bosworth and hope you can find your favourite ones. Kate Bosworth completes her embellished outfit with a simple ponytail. Kate Bosworth's Hair The actress styles them as a long side neighborhood and a ponytail pulls them back. Hair goes well with her red lipstick and opens up her pretty face. You can easily copy your hair but you have the first silky straight hairstyle. Kate Bosworth's long hair did two-tone tresses. She pulls all the locks up and ties an easy ponytail high. Hair can lengthen the neck and reveal make-up perfectly. It can be worn by any girl with long hair. Kate Bosworth gives a funny braid with a side part for her long hair. She looks like she's next door. Braided hair can always bring a fresh and beautiful look to the hair. Anyone can try the little braid in any color you want. Kate Bosworth's braided hair is a bit sophisticated. Kate Bosworth Hairstyles-Kate Bosworth Hair Pictures Her locks are braided and placed behind her elegant head. Hair complements her ensemble and brings a retro vibe. If you want to look at your hair you can use lots of hairpins and anti frizz hair Productions. First the fairy, then bob. Now the locks are getting longer. On Tuesday, Still Alice star and Trendsetter Kate Bosworth revealed on Instagram that she cut her locks into an asymmetrical lobe of the season. A new haircut can really change your life. Just ask actress Kate Bosworth, who got a new bob haircut on Instagram on Tuesday. Kate Bosworth haircut Kate Bosworth has now been serving cool girl super chic lewks for almost two decades. Starting with her Blue Crush days and literally up to the girl rn has always been able to make us swoon and gave us serious hair envy along the way. From possibly having the world's first lob to fearlessly switching from Platinum to strawberry and doing a twist of duty on her own are some of the most beloved Kate Bosworth mane moments of all time. Kate Bosworth | Medium hair styles, Hair lengths, Hairstyles The 32-year-old actress cut off her lust-worthy blonde locks for her upcoming role in 90 minutes in Paradise. Of course celebrity hairdresser Harry entrusted Josh with a seemingly daunting task. The result Bob Josh said the modern Greaty Gatsby invention was truly spectacular tousled with layers of face framing. Bosworth's new do is on trend with other stars such as Emma Stone Sienna Miller and Gabrielle Union embracing shorter and slightly messy hair. I agree with you. Earlier today celebrity hairdresser Harry Josh thrilled us all when he posted this Instagram photo with the headline OK. Kate Bosworth hair color I just cut literally a foot off a mystery actress. It will be unveiled on the red carpet tonight. Now we know the identity of this mysterious actress. Kate Bosworth. Here's her new cut that got her for her upcoming role in 90 minutes in Paradise debuting her hair according to her own Instagram pic. Kate Bosworth's New Bob Haircut Makes I agree with you. No doubt weekend one's coolest Coachella hair award goes to Kate Bosworth. We weren't too surprised given her style chops but the actress skillfully managed to pull off three very coachella—worthy hairstyles—a perfectly tousled lobe half bun and a delicate braid-in a gorgeous look. Kate Bosworth bob haircut But while Kate certainly deserves the stage to take everything out flawlessly, her hairdresser Bridget Brager deserves our praise for imagining a truly beautiful look. You can find the same content in another format or find more information on the website. The inspiration for Kate's festive hair is the grunge chic with a twist or braid that's half the 90s. Kate Bosworth hair colour He told us this morning. Again all three elements are styles of expression in their own right, but Brager's delicate approach Little braid little bun holds him up too much. Here she explains how to try it yourself at home because this good thing shouldn't just be reserved for the music festival circuit. Starting from the second day. Kate Bosworth hairstyle Dry hair picks up a small part of the hair no bigger than the width of the tip of your ring finger, which you would normally have a middle part of. This section should end on top of your head just before your head begins to bend. Kate Bosworth Coachella Hair Tutorial Your forehead. Finish the braid where your hairline stands on your forehead and make two sections by dividing the third strand of the braid. Secure the braid with a small bobby pin. Push the pin as straight as possible towards the middle of the net. Divide the unbraided ends of hair around your face to create framing. Polish March s 35-year-old recently showed off her dark hair as she stepped out with Michael Polish in snowy New York on March 7 and went out again the next day as she arrived at LAX. Kate Bosworth brown hair This is only a temporary change as the actress rarely changes her signature icy blonde shade, prompting us to wonder before I wake up. Another clue is that Kate often goes to hairstylist Harry Josh, who has yet to share a picture of her transformation. Kate is not the only blonde who embarked on a copper transformation recently with Lara Worthington sporting a similar shade on Instagram. Looking for more hair inspo. Times Kate Bosworth's Hair Made Us Swoon Check out our celebrity transformation gallery here. This long light blonde do has jagged long layers cut along the edges to lighten the length, allowing for natural movement. This beach baby appearance requires low maintenance and corrects regularly every 4 to 6 weeks to avoid split ends. Kate looked great with this short chic bob at the Whitney Museum's art party.

·˚ ༘♡ ·˚ ♡ Tutorial de Notion para 1x1

hello, hello!!

aqui é a friedinha fazendo seu primeiro tutorial para alegria ou desespero de todes. a linda e totosa da @chaoticdust sabe do meu amor por essa ferramenta chamada Notion e me pediu para ajudar ela a espalhar a palavra por essa rede social. ela me ajudou dando dicas de que campos colocar e é nossa primeira collab aqui!!

nesse tutorial eu vou dar uma pinceladinha em como funciona e aplicar isso para organizar as replies do 1x1!!

vantagens do Notion:

100% gratuito e praticamente ilimitado para uso pessoal

tem um aplicativo para android e para ios

pode utilizar no desktop também

vinculado a sua conta google

tem muitas funcionalidades e muita coisa é editável

você pode copiar templates de outras pessoas

muuuuito tutorial e template pronto na internet

desvantagens do Notion:

a estética do site é a mesma, então não tem muito o que mudar na interface geral, mas você pode ir editando até deixar com a sua carinha

link comprido para compartilhar e é gerado automaticamente

opções de cores de texto e de fundos limitada

sem mais delongas, vamos para o tutorial abaixo do corte!

♡ afinal, o que é o Notion?

o Notion é uma ferramenta de organização gratuita para uso pessoal e que permite você gerenciar suas tarefas e organizar sua rotina escolar, as atividades do trabalho ou o 1x1... pode até ser um substituto para o carrd, se quiserem um tutorialzinho me digam

♡ como logar no Notion?

o techtudo tem um tutorial básico de login e apresenta algumas funcionalidades da plataforma, você pode acessar nesse link. mas não é nenhum bicho de sete cabeças, essa parte de cadastro é bem intuitiva. você pode fazer esse login tanto no desktop quanto pelo app.

assim que você fizer o login, vão ser criadas páginas de tutoriais e você pode deixá-las por ali para consulta ou excluir todas, a escolha é sua.

♡ como copiar um template pronto

já logou? agora é hora de ir atrás dos templates. o que vamos utilizar no tutorial é esse aqui, básico mesmo, só para organizar as atividades do 1x1

quando você abrir o link, essa tela vai aparecer e você só precisa clicar no DUPLICATE ali em cima.

se você tiver mais de um workspace/conta logada, pode aparecer uma telinha para você selecionar a conta para onde quer copiar esse template. uma vez copiado, ele vai parar na sua barrinha de ferramentas

eu sempre escondo a barra de ferramentas, para esconder, só clicar nas flechas que estão indicadas em roxo na foto acima. se não aparecer, passe o mouse em cima do seu nome e logo a setinha dá o ar da graça

♡ views do template

eu fiz três views básicas, o notion deixa você fazer isso, você pode exibir uma mesma página com diferentes configurações. para mudar a vista, você só tem de clicar em DEFAULT VIEW

a primeira é a visão em tabela, a default view

a segunda, a vista em board, que é um quadro kanban, essa é a vista mais indicada por mim para quem ainda não tem muita intimidade com o notion !!

a terceira vista é em list/lista

você quem escolhe a vista que te agrada mais, eu gosto muito da segunda, do quadro kanban, mas é questão de gosto. quando você encontrar a forma favorita, hora de editar!!

♡ editando o template

agora é a hora!!! vou dar uma pinceladinha em alguns detalhes de aparência que você pode alterar antes de começar a organizar:

está vendo essa header linda?? você pode colocar a que quiser, se você passar o mouse, vai aparecer algo como “change cover”, aí você escolhe se quer carregar a imagem do seu computador ou procurar uma na internet

essa bolinha lilás é um emoji, mas você pode alterar ela para outro emoji, remover ou utilizar um icon de sua escolha. só clicar na bolinha e ser feliz

a mesma coisa para o títúlo abaixo da bolinha, pode colocar o que você quiser, e o site tem suporte para unicode, então pode utilizar aquelas fontes aesthetic sem problema algum

o notion trabalha com pages, no nosso contexto, é como se você criasse uma página nova para cada thread ou turno que você estiver jogando. cada uma dessas pages possuem título e propriedades/properties. essas propriedades possuem tags e stats que você altera conforme for jogando e que o notion reorganiza na hora de exibir. parece complicado, mas não é.

para abrir essas pages você precisa clicar onde está escrito NOME DO PARTNER ou o nome do meu blog, tanto faz e vai abrir essa tal de page

a visualização default é a mais chatinha, você precisa passar o mouse sobre o nome e clicar em OPEN.

você pode adicionar um icon e uma header se quiser, para cada uma das páginas, para isso, só passe o mouse na região e as opções vão aparecer :)

♡ properties do template

título: é onde está o notxkahlo, você pode colocar o nome do partner aqui

data: data da reply

link: link para o post que você tem de responder

reply: você pode assinalar qual é o número da reply

status: aqui você escolhe se o jogo foi respondido, não iniciado ou se você está escrevendo essa reply

tema: você seleciona os temas para esse turno, se é um smut, se é angst

você edita cada uma dessas propriedades clicando sobre elas, abaixo do add comment está minha parte preferida, a page serve como um docs, você pode ir escrevendo sua reply ali e ela salva automaticamente enquanto estiver conectado a internet

♡ trabalhando com filtros

mas frieeeda, tá tudo uma bagunça, quero separar só os que estou inadimplente!! se você escolheu a visualização de lista ou tabela, pode parecer meio confuso e bagunçado... mas seus problemas acabaram, vou te ensinar a utilizar os filtros!!

tá vendo aí do ladinho de new, três pontinhos, clica neles! vai abrir um menu, ali você vai em filter

adicione um filtro e selecione a opção de filter group!! para separar os pendentes dos demais, deixe como eu fiz abaixo. e tem um detalhe, para voltar a ver todas as replies sem filtro, você tem de excluir, clicando nos três pontinhos destacados em amarelo

caso você estiver confuse com o uso de filtros, eu aconselho escolher a visão kanban/board view!! nela, as páginas são agrupadas por status, então na mesma coluna estão todas as pages com o mesmo status.

Wie man Haar + weiche Wellen blowdry

Heute arbeite ich mit John Frieda zusammen, um dir zu zeigen, wie ich meine Haare föhne und locke, um weiche Wellen zu erzeugen, die ich die ganze Zeit gerne trage. Dies ist eine großartige Technik, die auf kurzes, mittleres oder langes Haar wirkt und eine großartige, lässige Art, jeden Tag zu tragen. Ich hoffe, Sie genießen das Tutorial und lassen Sie mich wissen, wenn es andere tolle Tutorials gibt, die Sie gerne in einem zukünftigen Video sehen würden!

youtube

Föhnen Anleitung:

Schritt 1 / Beginnen Sie, indem Sie die Haare in Abschnitte teilen, um das Trocknen etwas schneller und einfacher zu machen.

Schritt 2 / Mit einem 3 “Rundbürste, ein kleines Stück Haare, teilen Sie die Bürste unter dem Abschnitt und folgen Sie es bis zu den Enden mit dem Fön.

Schritt 3 / Weiterbürsten und trocknen kleine Abschnitte, bis alle Haare aus dem unteren Bereich trocken sind.

Schritt 4 / Lassen Sie dann eine neue Haarschicht fallen und bürsten Sie mit der Rundbürste weiter durch kleine Abschnitte, während Sie mit dem Fön nach unten gehen.

Schritt 5 / Um ein bisschen zusätzliche Welle hinzuzufügen, wenn Ihr Haar lang wie meines ist, greifen Sie ein 1 1/2 “und rollen kleine Abschnitte weg vom Gesicht, das in der Mitte der Abschnitte festklemmt und zur Wurzel rollt, bevor Sie fallen es bis zum Ende, ein zweites Mal einwickeln.

Schritt 6 / Weiter kleine Abschnitte kräuseln, bevor die letzte Haarschicht heruntergelassen wird.

Schritt 7 / Wiederholen Sie die gleichen Schritte mit der oberen Schicht, Föhnen und Locken die Haare.

Schritt 8 / Lassen Sie die Locken für ein paar Sekunden abkühlen, bevor Sie Ihre Finger durch sie hindurch führen, um zu helfen, die Wellen zu mischen und zu erweichen.

Gah, is there some easy way to do tumblr comment reply posts? If so I've forgotten it and failed to refind it!

galadhir replied to your photoset: So here’s me having to attend a tutorial yesterday...

It doesn’t look particularly orange in the pictures to me. But you can get colour remover at Boots now which acts like a fairly gentle bleach and would fade the orange enough for you to try the blonde again

Yeah, I’m not convinced my phone’s selfie cam accurately captured the full orange experience – I suspect its auto white balance errs a bit on the blue side of reality. On the other hand, could be I’m just a little in shock because this now is the lightest and brightest my hair has ever been in my entire life since early childhood… It’s mostly been jet black.

I’ve tried a couple of these colour remover kits on my hair a few years ago (the occasion then was a dark purplish/burgundy home dye disaster) – one was called Colour B4 and I forget the other – but they didn’t work at all on my hair. I think they’re designed for people who dye their naturally lightish-coloured (light brown or blonde) hair darker and regret it, whereas the natural colour of my hair is dark ash brown with around 30-40% grey in streaks through it, and anyway if you need to revert to a dark natural colour there’s always the simple option of dyeing over a lighter colour. Also I suspect that, like most DIY hair dyes and related products available here, they’re designed for typically fine Northern European hair, while my hair is part Afro due to mixed race ancestry and therefore much coarser. That’s probably also why even “ash blonde” dyes turn out orange/ginger on me – the bleach in them just isn’t strong enough to lighten my hair, and would likely damage most people’s hair if it was. Maybe if I really want to get to true light ash brown/dark ash blonde hair I’ll need to used a high strength bleach to take it to brassy yellow, then dye over or tone it with something very grey-purple, but that’s probably more effort and money than I’m up for at the moment.

ilye-elf replied to your photoset: So here’s me having to attend a tutorial yesterday...

Most important question is what did you dye it with?

Ha, permanent dye of course - John Frieda Precision Foam Colour 8N "medium natural blonde" this time, but previously I've used John Frieda 6.5PBN “lightest cool almond brown” for years because, after much experimentation, that was the one that came out most true and least orangey on my hair (though still darker and more gingery than the box indicates). The 8N hasn't lightened most of my hair (apart from the undyed roots) but it made it all less brown and more orange.
