I told my friend it must be nice that she was seen right away by the emergency vet and I got stuck waiting for five hours last weekend. I was frustrated because I had to take time from my work day and others kept coming in after my dog and getting seen first. My friend ended up telling me she needs space from me. Sorry just needed to vent
Hi anon,
I’m really sorry if this comes off harsh. This is a really sensitive subject for me, but telling your friend “it must be nice” probably felt really dismissive to them. Probably even insensitive. I understand that’s likely not how you intended it to come off, but that’s how it would have felt to me.
Having been someone on both sides of this. Someone who had to wait for awhile to get my dog seen, but also someone whose dog was rushed in ahead of all the others… I can tell you while all vet trips suck, it was so much worse being the one whose dog got rushed in because when that happens, there’s a reason. It’s not first come, first seen. It’s based on severity. I can’t even put into words the terror I felt. I’m not trying to invalidate how you feel. It’s valid to feel frustrated by missing work, and waiting and all that. But I do think that your comment probably really upset your friend when they were likely scared for their pet. I’m not saying you weren’t scared. You’d be valid to be scared and want your pet seen. But I just think some perspective from the other side might be helpful to you understanding.
Your friend wants space right now, so I’d give that to them. But when they’re done needing space, I think it might be good to apologize. Even something like “I’m sorry about what I said. I was feeling frustrated by my own experience but I understand that they weren’t the same and in hindsight, I wouldn’t have said what I did.”

roger who's nickname for buggy was "junebug" cause they found him in june and his hair is the same color.... buggy who hates it at first until he's climbing into his captain's bed at night bc of a nightmare and his captain says ever so softly, "oh junebug, c'mere"..... the nickname getting adopted by everyone on the crew until nobody calls him buggy anymore..... them meeting up with thr whitebeard pirates and getting irrationally jealous when the whitebeards use the nickname bc that's their nickname and who the fuck do these people think they are getting so close to their junebug.... rouge who has never met buggy calling him junebug in her head.... roger whose last words to buggy that fateful day before loguetown was "you shine like the sun, junebug. never stop"..... buggy who waits for years after the execution for a call from one of his former crew members, hoping every time the den-den one day it'll be rayleigh or seagull or gaban or sunbell on the other side with a familiar "hey junebug", except no one ever calls and the years go by and buggy slowly learns to stop waits, and gives on being the roger's junebug and learns how to be buggy the clown, buggy the genius jester, buggy the immortal, everything and anything other than junebug

or: 11 songs about divorce & 1 song about having a glove kink (while your marriage is falling apart)
(lyric snippets & audios below the cut)
5 Years Into Marriage - Matt Owens & Hannah White
5 years into marriage
And it's looking like we're almost done.
I love you,
I'm just not in love with you any more
(no, no, no)
Both floated down the aisle,
Started taking each other for granted somewhere between-
The pulpit and those church doors.
Confetti kissed your face,
And I trod it right into the floor.
We can stick it out another ten years, and we probably will.
Barricade - Stars
I found you on a Saturday, and that was where I lost you
You had to finally walk away because of what it cost you
Years later on, I saw your face
In line to catch the morning train
You looked like you'd been softened
Like you never really loved the pain
I Don't Want Love - The Antlers
If I leave before you,
And I walk out alone,
Keep your hands to yourself
When you follow me home.
If You Love Me, You Will Lie - Out lines
And shouting through the bathroom door
You said that I was keeping score
Why can't we accept that there's no more
We never say goodbye
It's Beginning To Get To Me - Snow Patrol
I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screamin' under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense
Midnight Love - Girl In Red
I hope that the right time one day arrives
So, I'll be willing to let this die
Able to look you right in the eyes
Say I'm not your consolation prize
Mothers - Daughter
You will grow all you need to grow inside my spine
And then take what you need to take, what's yours is mine
And then just give all you want of it to some new thing
I'll stay here, the provider of that constant sting they call love
Nothing New - Rio Romeo
So, won't you please spare me indignity?
And won't you please give me some decency?
And won't you please call it if our time is through?
'Cause I know that we fall apart when nothing's new
Sometimes I Still Feel the Bruise - The Mountain Goats
Making contact gets harder
As the silence grows longer
Why would you think of me?
When you were not the one in love
When you were not the dreamer
When you were just the dream
I'm under no illusion
As to what I meant to you
But you made an impression
And sometimes I still feel the bruise
Splinter - Scott Hutchison & James Graham
‘Cause I always took the cutting,
And you only missed my heart
Although it amounts to nothing,
The nothing’s left it’s mark
The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbit
Well, I crippled your heart a hundred times
And still can't work out why
You see, I've got this disease
I can't shake and I'm just rattling through life
Well, this is how we do things now
Yeah, this is how the modern stay scared
So I cut out all the good stuff
Yeah, I cut off my foot to spite my leg
Wedding Gloves - Frightened Rabbit FT. Aiden Moffat
Do you even remember
What we said in the vows?
God was watching on Saturday
But He is not with us now, with us now

Hello everyone. I come back with
The God Hunt, part 2
This part focuses on the first episode's side characters! There's a bit of color theory mixed in with one of these, so that's fun
Again credit to @spagheddiesquash for the reverse Cataclysm colors
Also!! Please note that I am summarizing these myths and bringing up only the parts that are relevant to the characters!! Specially their attributes and symbols. But for most of the side characters here who only show up for a few seconds, most hints are gonna be visual
Part 1

would it be outrageous to say ..... we're either shouting or we're shagging ........ docked in tempestuous bays ....... at least that's how we felt yesterday ..... the eyes are getting heavier ...... and whether you're asleep or awake ........ is a mystery ........ would a kiss be too much to ask ...........
