yk those little phrases you catch yourself using in writing over and over again well one of mine is ‘take what (they) can get’ and thinking about it like um i think that’s a pretty solid thesis statement for michael and adam and even ghoul. all of them have been in situations that don’t grant them any sort of comfort and in these situations—a lonely childhood, a forgotten eternity, a vengeful god—they have to take what they can get so they don’t like. lose it. they have to work towards a lifelong goal or choose to be kind or make the most of the time they have left. given so little that everything even almost good has to be voraciously accepted.

#fixing up my fics and realizing i used that phrase like thrice last week #and in a lot of drafts #but it works!#the universe has taken so much from them.#they have no choice but to accept all the little good things they can!!#mine #also this cant be news to anyone but like #lonely childhood. absent parent. dead without a second thought. check check check for all 3 of them #granted. ghouls dad was absent bc he was dead #and we can only Assume that michaels childhood or like. initial existence. was lonely but i mean if he's the oldest and the Weapon #and since he obv cared abt lucifer the most but then was ordered to abandon and condemn him.#that sounds lonely to meee #anyway w their shitty pasts well what can i say abt their relationship but that theyre taking what they can get & making the most out of it #am i just making excuses for instances of lazy writing? perhaps. what about it.
