All the mob bosses in Gotham showing up for the Wayne’s funeral, and Martha’s side of the family not coming at all. Yeah.

A big reason I think Spite is so upset when Manfred is gone is because he was living vicariously through Manfred.
"Curiosity has feet!" "It has. Hands!"
"Curiosity has fire!" "I want. Fire."
Manfred is a spirit given a body. Manfred is free to explore the world around them. Manfred is actively encouraged to learn, to interact with the party, to engage in play and learn to speak.
Spite struggles to speak to Lucanis because he doesn't know how to say what he really means sometimes. Spite struggles to speak through Lucanis because they share his body. Spite is reprimanded for asking questions and making observations but Manfred isn't.
Spite probably liked Manfred in part because Manfred was getting to have fun and be a person and be... loved. Spite cares for Curiosity and by spending time with Curiosity he got to understand what being treasured and love was like as well.
Spite can understand why the party is wary of him even if he thinks it is unfair, but Curiosity dying? No longer getting to be in a body that learns and grows and loves? That is unfair to Curiosity. Curiosity is not a demon. Why would they be punished? Why is good, happy Manfred gone but miserable Spite who everyone hates is still around. It is. not fair.
#spite dragon age#spite dellamorte#lucanis dellamorte#manfred the skeleton#spite probably looked at manfred like a younger sibling where he is the practice child and manfred is the kid that was planned for#spite coveted what curiosity was given but he didn't want to take it away from them#spite had a little buddy of sorts and he was so happy for curiosity which he only realized after they were gone#spite talks to rook about it at night while lucanis sleeps#rook has always been unafraid of spite and kind to him so its enough to have them but curiosity deserved better#so spite thinks

My favourite thing about AOT is that when Eren first met Armin and Mikasa, he scared the hell out of them
Like imagine this: You just had the worst day of your life. A bunch of kids beat you up/ you watched your parents get killed then you got kidnapped and out of nowhere a creepy little kid in a red scarf shows up and he is like “yo, wanna tatakae and be my bestie forever :)”
#even in the lost girls OVA when Eren walked into Mikasa’s house acting like he owned the place the poor girl was scared of him lmaoo#Eren would be that one boy in kindergarten who would bite the other kids and push them off of the swings and slides#One of my favourite scenes is when Grisha is like (hey Eren be be nice to Mikasa and try to be friends with her I don’t want you to be an#outcast) and Eren is like I will be nice to her if she is nice to me >:(#and Grisha is like sweetheart this is why you only have one friend 💜#like if Zeke and Eren were raised together Eren would give him younger brother trauma#kid Eren was born to be in a horror movie fr#he would have done wonders for that genre#eren jeager#eren yeager#armin arlert#mikasa ackerman#EMA#eremika#attack on titan#aot#shingeki no kyojin#snk#shiganshina trio

Very rough comic thingie on something that never gets talked about! (in the way I view it at least.)
I hear a lot of people talk about the SA in the show, some of which used for gags. But I've only seen it talked about with the girl characters. Yagi gets mobbed by fangirls in the movie and kissed, unknown if consensual or not? (I see it as SA personally) Only heard it talked about three times in the past 4 years I've been in this fandom! I feel like if he were younger and not a guy, it'd probably be brought up more, considering other sa gags in the series get brought up.
Sure he's been seen letting people touch him in the first few episodes, but still, I'm giving the gag a more serious thought. I'd imagine that after having it happen for so long, he'd be more used to it and allow the touches (whilst feeling discomfort inside), which... Doesn't make it right. This is for me and the... 3 others who think of this scene in a more negative way, aha 😅
#sa#tw: sa#all might#toshinori yagi#didn't know whether I should make or post this or not. Had this idea pop up a few days ago on asexual awareness day#but then I thought about vigilantees more darker themes with SA and bam. Had to quickly sketch this before next episode drops.#Maybe I'll remake this in the future to look better. If this doesn't get negative reception anyway.#The only comments I ever see on this moment is “that was me” T.T Which is completely fine of course. it's a gag... Just wanted to give it a#more serious darker tone#especially cause of that comment Horikoshi wrote about him “having no experience with women”#and this is the only experience he gets 💀 no thank you! x'3#kinda the first time I've drawn a kiss btw. And... It's a very unwanted one :v yikes. sorry.#This can be seen as him being ace in this or not. I had that more in mind but#well anyone can feel uncomfortable with unconsenting touch of course#But come on. If he were a women‚ and younger#would It be talked about? or am I just a dummy blowing a gag out of proportion#oh well! x0#mha#my art#sketch#comic

I've read all of your work, but my memory SUCKS. Have we gotten a love confession from Rafe? Maybe it can tie into a third part of the whole ''I have standards'' fight that they are in.
ᥫ᭡ I love you

{summary: the first three times rafe cameron says ‘I love you’ to sofia}
{a/n: sorry for the delay. i didn’t include this to be with the standards series, so i apologise! you can tell how behind on my asks i am! but i hope you still like it!}
{warning: mild sexual content}
౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 ౨ৎ ˙⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩
The first time Sofia heard him say those words she couldn’t be sure he actually said them.
It was when they were fucking. Well– not really that. Sex had become something that transcended physical. It became almost a mental game between the two– where eye contact was held, where touches felt reverent, where kisses were uncontrolled. It was no longer hooking up, it was companionship– for the both of them.
Sofia knew Rafe was lonely. She quickly figured out the playboy, cocky, man of the house persona that clung to him like dried paint was a front. He’d always be wary of never hurting her (well at least not consciously) and that was a lot more than what could be said about other guys on Figure 8 she’d messed around with. They were always mean; especially after they’d wetted their dicks with her.
“Be quiet when you leave– if they see I hooked up with the bartender I’d never live it down.”
“You think you can give me free drinks now? I think I deserve it.”
“You pogues always want more don’t you?”
They’d always say they were joking when they would see her crestfallen face and wide eyes. Rafe’s jokes had irked her a couple times too, but he’d always found a way to fix it– make her feel better. They never did.
So when Sofia heard Rafe murmur something against the flushed skin of her neck, his head buried into her hair, lips pressed on her jugular vein– her heart spluttered for a second.
“I love you,” he panted, half breathless, half groaning.
It was either she’d misheard or he was joking.
So she let the moment pass, wrapping her legs tighter around his waist as she came. He didn’t say anything afterwards. Maybe he didn’t want her to hear? That’s why he’d muffled his mouth with her nape. Maybe he didn’t mean it? It was just a wanton slip of the tongue. Or maybe he didn’t say it at all and she was just hearing what she wanted.
The second time he said it he was drunk. And she heard him loud and clear.
Rafe wasn’t the type to get full-on, no inhibitions, sloppy, drunk. He could handle his drink. It was usually him who had to deal with Sofia’s tipsy ramblings and inebriated stumbles.
So when he was throwing back shot after shot at some party they’d attended together, Sofia thought nothing of it. But later on when he’d come crawling back to her, after fooling around with Topper and Kelce, she was surprised to see him like that: drooping eyelids, blush-kissed cheeks, a clear, rhythmic sway to his walk.
“Hey baby,” he slurred, sinking next to her on the couch. His head lolled back, and up close she could see a faint sheen of sweat coat his skin.
“Rafe– are you drunk?” She said, bringing her mouth close to his ear. He sat like he always sat– sprawled out, legs spilling into her space.
“No…I’m fine.”
He was not. He’d been acting off for a the past couple days. But whatever was bothering him, he didn’t let slip. Sofia had a hunch it was something to do with his family– information he’d impart with rarely. But whenever he did mention his father, or his sister, sometimes even his mother…Sofia listened, still and solemn.
“Come on, let’s go.” She left one word unspoken, that dangled off the end of the sentence like breath hanging in front of you when it’s cold.
Let’s go home.
But it wasn’t her home. It was his home. She’d been with him long enough to feel like this was something more. She knew it was something more. But neither her or Rafe would concede first. Not out of stubbornness or embarrassment. But fear of ruining what they had. So she swallowed the word bitterly, and let what was hers and what was his exists in their separate spheres. They weren’t each other’s. They were just two people who fucked.
Sofia half-carried him out the party, face burning as she passed Kelce and Topper. She knew what they saw her as. And she hated it.
But Rafe breezed by without a care, his arm slung around her frame, his hands playing with hers as she tried to grasp on to him.
Eventually they reached his car.
Sofia had directed him to the passenger seat, and after a few grumbles and complaints, she managed to grab the keys from him.
Driving the BMW down the smooth-paved streets of Figure 8 was something Sofia loved. Rafe let her sometimes when she’d ask, otherwise he would drive them everywhere.
In the plush, leather interior, she didn’t have to fumble with a janky gearstick, or worry about stalling, like she did in her decades old car. She could just cruise, listening to Rafe’s soft sounds as he slept.
Once they reached Tannyhill, she’d woken him up and coaxed him to bed. Turns out drunk Rafe was even more of a wilful terco.
“Come on baby, let’s get you to bed,” she said, voice like velvet. Rafe eventually complied, ending collapsing on their– his– his bed.
He was out, chest rising and falling, mouth slightly parted. Sofia’s heart stirred. He was so pretty sometimes. When he wasn’t trying to appear threatening and tough. A sense of innocence settled over his relaxed features, that never seemed to shine through when he was awake.
Sofia pulled off his shoes before slipping into the en-suite to run a washcloth under the tap. She took a seat beside him, running the damp fabric across his brow.
The action caused him to stir, blue eyes blinking open, meeting her own stare.
“Sofiaaa,” he murmured, lips tugging up into an amused smile. His hands snaked over his body to meet her wrist as she dabbed the washcloth across his sweaty face.
“Raaafe,” she teased, mirroring his lilting tone.
“You’re so pretty, you know that right?” His words were breathy and low, barely audible despite the silence of the shadowy room.
“Thank you Rafe.” He moved her hands away from his face, so he could see her more clearly, hand still folded around her wrist.
“And you’re so kind and nice and fun. You make me feel good. Like real good.”
Sofia scoffed, letting the washcloth fall onto the bedside table, dropping his hand across his stomach. “I’m not sleeping with you Rafe so don’t even try it– you’re drunk remember?”
He just shook his head, “nahhh– Like you make me feel good here.” He tapped his hand against his chest, his fingers hitting the sternum where his heartbeat was.
He waited for her reaction, his dilated eyes looking like two wet marbles, his lips shiny with saliva and remnants of tequila.
Sofia’s gaze softened, her hand reaching out to caress the slope of his cheekbone, her thumb brushing against his face.
“You’re so sweet, cariño,” she hummed, smiling down at him.
“I love you Sofia. Like so fucking much, yeah?”
Her heart dropped, breath hitching in her ribcage. She stopped the gentle circles rubbing into his skin, but her hand remained cupped against his cheek.
He didn’t mean it. He was drunk. He was lying. He was teasing her.
But the way he looked up at her: Waiting. Anticipating her response to his words. His blue eyes flickering in the half-dark.
In the quiet of the bedroom Sofia chose to believe them.
“I love you too Rafe.” Her voice was quiet and high, bordering a rasped out cry. God, did it feel good to say. Sofia Flores was in love with Rafe Cameron.
His face broke out in a boyish smile, and for once he looked his age. Not like a man trying to fills his father’s shoes, sleep in his father’s bed, take over his father’s company. He looked like a boy in love– sappy and sweet and soft.
“Give me a kiss,” he instructed.
“You reek of alcohol.”
“If you loved me you would,” he huffed with a smirk.
Sofia laughed, eyes crinkling in the corner, “that’s not fair.” But she bent down anyway, her hair tickling his face, which he tucked away behind her ear.
“My pretty girl,” he mused, staring into her eyes, his own glossed over in a drunken haze.
“Mi niño lindo.” Sofia brushed a chaste kiss over his forehead, before moving off of him, realising he’d slipped into a steady sleep.
Sofia undressed, sliding into bed beside him. She nestled up against his body heat, her heart fluttering when he moved to bring her in closer– his hand slotted against the crook of her hip, his face nearing hers.
After that night, Rafe didn’t seem to remember his drunken love confession. But Sofia stored it inside her heart, tucked in between her own pulsating love for him.
The third time he said it was her birthday. Sofia hated birthdays. They were just a reminder of how she’d gotten nowhere in life. Still stuck in the shitty job she got when she was 18, still stuck on the Cut, still stuck living life for her family rather than herself.
Her parents had given her a hug and a kiss, and her little sister had made her a card. But as always, she then had to leave for her shift at the country club.
Sofia had let herself recognise the occasion, picking up half a dozen cupcakes for her and her colleagues. Ever since she’d spent more time with Rafe, Sofia had neglected her friendships with them. They’d smile at her and make small talk, but they never invited her back for drinks, or told her about parties on the Cut– she couldn’t have gone of course since she was busy with Rafe, but it would’ve been nice to have the option of declining. Sofia pushed away her trivial insecurities, and held the white box with shaky hands.
They’d all seemed chagrined when she told them it was her birthday– embarrassed they didn’t get her anything, embarrassed it slipped their mind, embarrassed that Sofia acknowledged their crumbling bond. But they still ate the cupcakes on their break before going back to letting Sofia skirt conversations and pretend to ignore them when they discussed their plans.
It was nearing evening and her day was coming to an end, when she spotted Rafe walk across the bar floor, a big smile on his face.
They hadn’t planned to meet today. But Sofia was relieved to see him regardless, finding herself mirroring his wide grin.
“Hey, what are you doing here? I thought you were busy today?” She asked, already making his drink that she’d grown to memorise.
Rafe just shrugged, retaining that sly grin on his mouth, “I missed you. Are you busy?”
Sofia shook her head “only with work.”
He drove her back to Tannyhilly when she finished her final shift. She noticed he seemed effervescent, bubbling with energy: fingers tapping against the wheel, eyes darting everywhere, shoulders rolling back ever so often.
He led the way inside once they reached the house, Sofia heading up to the bedroom.
But Rafe stopped her. “Wait– follow me.”
Sofia quirked her eyebrows, “why?”
He rolled his eyes playfully, grabbing her by the hand, “just come on.”
Rafe took her to the kitchen, but before they went past the doors, he stopped, letting go of her hand and instead moving to stand behind her.
“What are you–?”
“Shh– just trust me.” And with that, he covered her eyes with his big hands and slowly pushed her into the kitchen.
Sofia giggled nervously, feeling Rafe’s tall figure crowd against her back. She’d honestly forgotten it was her birthday, so when Rafe’s hands fell from her face, letting her upon the candle lit table, a helium balloon that gently swayed, the bouquet of lilies and peonies that sat verdant in the centre, her heart faltered a little.
“Happy birthday Sof,” he said softly behind her, smiling down, watching her face intently.
“What– how– ?”
“I saw it on your ID once and kept a note of it. Was hoping you’d tell me, but you didn’t so I thought I’d surprise you.”
Sofia’s eyes roved over all the little details: the fancy china she’d never seen him use, the expensive bottle of champagne that was sitting there waiting to be opened, her name in swirling script across the balloon.
He took her silence as something negative, “you don’t like it. Fuck I’m sorry. This is weird isn’t it?”
Sofia quickly stopped him “no no no! This is so beautiful, I love it! It’s just that I never really do anything for my birthday– I’m just surprised that’s all.”
Rafe considered her words, a brief flash of confusion swiping across his face, “well sit down and I’ll serve dinner yeah?”
Sofia nodded, smiling up at him.
They finished eating (Rafe had gotten her pizza from her favourite spot), and they sat nursing their drinks at the table.
“I’m sorry you spent most your birthday working,” he suddenly said, starring at her with a piercing sincerity that unsettled her.
She simply just laughed, “don’t worry about it, I’m used to it.”
“I’m sorry for that. You deserve more.” They shared a brief glance that felt too long, the back of Sofia’s neck prickling in goosebumps.
“Wait I forgot one thing.” He got up, disappearing behind the kitchen counter.
“What?” Sofia arched her neck trying to see what he was doing.
“Can’t forget the birthday girl’s gift,” he teased, pulling out a wrapped present, complete with a bow and everything.
Sofia bit back a smile, her eyebrows softening at his giddy smirk. She accepted the gift gingerly, examining the golden wrapping paper that glowed in the dull candle light. She could tell he wrapped it himself– there was tape in places that didn’t need it and the paper was wrinkled slightly, as if he’d tried folding it multiple times. It was heavy too, Sofia’s arm sagging slightly when he handed it over.
“You didn’t have to Rafe,” she began, her cheeks turning pink.
He shushed her again, “just open it.”
And so she did, carefully tearing the paper, to reveal a box with golden clasps. She opened it, realising it was a vintage record player.
“Oh my god– Rafe you shouldn’t have.” Her eyes were glued on the near perfect finishings, the sheen of the leather and glint of the metal attachments. She’d mentioned ages ago about how much she loved records, when they were talking about what music they listened to. But she didn’t have a record player to play her collection, curated from lucky thrift store finds and countless trips to old music shops.
And Rafe still remembered? She was overcome with a heady verve.
“Do you like it?” He asked, as if he was almost shy.
“Of course! It’s literally perfect– thank you so much!”
Rafe chuckled, watching her with a soft smile as she fiddled with all the buttons, running her fingers across the smooth surface.
Sofia placed her new gift on the tables getting up so she could hug Rafe. He happily complied, lifting her slightly, and spinning her around. A bubbly giggle escaped her chest as her hands flew around his neck.
“Feliz cumpleaños, baby,” he murmured, putting her down on her feet, before hooking her lips with a soft, slow kiss.
“Love you,” he murmured against her lips, but clear enough so that she could hear every syllable. Her whole body became suffuse with a euphoric warmth as if it was injected into her by those words.
“Love you too,” she whispered back, kissing him again.
Their kisses grew hungrier and more desperate until he hoisted her up so her legs were entwined around his waist, one arm holding her up while the other pushed back her messy curls.
“You down?” He asked in between kisses which made her laugh.
“Yes I’m down,” she gasped, brushing her nose against his causing him to smile.
Rafe led Sofia onto the kitchen counter, placing her on the cool granite countertop, her thighs clenching at the cold sensation of it hitting her warm skin.
His lips enmeshed with hers, supping voraciously at the tender flesh, his teeth catching at her lower lip, inciting a throaty groan which he mirrored.
Rafe’s hands roamed wildly across her exposed skin, inching up her leg, bunching her blue work skirt up until it reached the line of her hips. He hooked his hands under the meat of her thigh, tugging her forward so she was at the edge of the counter. His lips licked lower and lower, kisses being peppered down the length of her arm, as Sofia watching in a lustful stupor.
Rafe lowered himself until his face was between her legs. He placed her hand, that was still in his, atop his head, forcing her to push him even lower. The sight of Rafe Cameron practically on his knees for her, made Sofia see stars.
He let go of her hand, Sofia rubbing a thumb across his tickling buzzcut, as he parted her pressed together thighs with a rough hand.
Rafe mewled as she scratched her fingers through his shorn hair and Sofia whined at the feeling of his hot breath fanning her skin.
“Got another gift for you too,” he said with a smirk, Sofia rolling her eyes, but the words lit a fire in her lower abdomen that flickered deep inside her.
“I love you Sof,” he said, quiet, dipping his head down between the valley of her thighs, kissing her warm skin with delicate lips. The kisses became coarser, until she felt teeth graze at her flesh, biting into her pillowy legs.
Sofia let out a hiss. He didn’t wait for her to say it back this time– as if it didn’t matter. He loved her and that was the only important thing.
Even if she wanted to say something, her words became caught in her throat, reserved to only exalted whimpers and strung out cries, as Rafe showed her just how much he meant what he said, leaving her a writhing mess on the kitchen counter.

so, i've been thinking about laios's relationship with his mother. we all know about his daddy issues by now, but no one thinks about his mother. i mean, he disowned her as well. he hardly talks about her. he has a lot to say about his dad but when it comes to his mother, the most he'll say is "idk, she was kinda sick a lot."
and i think it was because he did hold her on a high pedestal. she's his mother, his protector. i know for sure she babied him a lot. mothers who's first-born is a son mostly do.
she was the one who even gifted him his precious monster manual!
so, what happened? why did he also lump her with his father and decided "i'm never speaking to them ever again." ?
to put it in simple terms, it was falin. laios was so upset about how his parents treated the situation about the villagers' abuse to falin. both of them didn't know how to handle it, but they both failed at protecting her. the best their father can come up with is sending falin away to the magic school. (without explaining why bc their dad sucked at communicating with his family.)
their village was also very conservative, especially towards magic-users. i always found it to be odd since magic does seem to be the norm in the "dungeon meshi" world, however evidence shows it's not all well-known all around the world. i mean, rin's parents were burnt to death for using magic that was thought to be "black magic".
and falin's natural magical talent being "talking to the dead" would make anyone nervous bc that could be linked to black magic.
their mother is always described to be "frail", and i bet it's mostly because she's very superstitious. gotta be honest here as well, she maybe wasn't mentally healthy. this is just an assumption but their mom comes off as paranoid and anxious, and then does these made-up rituals to try to "heal" her daughter.
hurting falin like this was the final nail in the coffin for laios, because maybe he thought he could rely on her? "hey mom, can you tell dad not to send falin away? please?"
yeah, she had "good intentions", but she still abused her daughter? because she made the situation about herself and went "oh god, it's my fault my daughter is a freak. i have to fix this."
also, laios looking so stressed and haggard here makes me so sad. like, what if their mother did something similar to him when he was younger? he wouldn't care about himself getting hurt, but seeing his own mother doing it to falin is nerve-wrecking.

the way both siblings are portrayed as autistic in different ways is important to their characters. just because falin understood why their parents did what they did, doesn't make it okay. they still hurt her, and laios knows that. and in a way, they hurt him too.
if their parents couldn't protect them from awful, nasty people and expected their children to just bare it, how can laios trust them?
this is scary to see for a child.
after that, he pretty much gave up on his parents and never looked back. but i also think, if he misses them, it's more his mother than his father.
afterall, he did his best to keep his monster manual safe.
#dungeon meshi#dungeon meshi spoilers#delicious in dungeon#delicious dungeon#laios touden#falin touden#laios and falin's mother#gothie's opinions#btw what i meant when i said their mom probably did similar rituals to laios when he was younger#was that he seemed to be nonverbal as a toddler if that one extra about the day he met falin is the only comic of baby!laios#and autistic children during those time periods were always thought to be something evil or something similar#so who's to say their mom didn't try some of those weird made-up rituals on him too? 😬#that's mostly a headcanon tho but tbh i wouldn't be too surprised

I’m just very obsessed with the idea that mihawk is useless in a weapon less fight like he cannot throw a punch or get out of a pin to save his life like one he can’t kick he’s done out for the count, and this is why Shanks ends most of their duels this way. Because he’s a filthy cheater and Mihawk is even worse off because it’s Shanks pining him and he has eaten a lot of dirt.
Shanks decides to teach him the art of fighting dirty cause he’s nice that way but also let’s just say that Shanks likes being in a pin a little too much
#the first time mihawk pins him straddling his hips he smiles shanks looks up and swears he sees god#but yeah this position definitely escalated things a lot of times#Shanks is playing 3-d chess on how to get laid#I love the idea of especially when they were much younger and mihawk was marginally less serious a lot#their duels ended with them wresting in the dirt#and because I cannot for the life of me imagine Mihawk throwing a punch I’m just going to assume he was hilariously bad at this as well#like he’s not terrible at wresting but once you have him pinned no weapon in hand that’s it he’s done#but even with like a pen he would fucking take your light out#this is the only thing they do where Shanjs can really win and Mihawk hates it (so he claims the full body blush says otherwise)#one piece#throwing thoughts to the void#dracule mihawk#op#hawkeye mihawk#mishanks#akagami no shanks#shanks#red haired shanks#akataka#mihawk x shanks

⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ 𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐌𝐄𝐋𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐔𝐒𝐓.
゛star-crossed lovers. they, who shall defy the stars ⸝⸝.ᐟ⋆
“love can be just as fickle as fate itself my child. but some day, you may very well come across a wrinkle amongst this finely woven tapestry that is your fate. it won’t be something you notice at first, and you will simply carry on with your days as usual — perhaps they’ll feel a little brighter. the moon always does appear more luminous when it’s accompanied by the stars after all. but when you do take notice of that wrinkle, that loose thread, i wonder … will you sever it as though it were nothing but a flaw in the fate’s design? or will you unthread your tapestry and weave a new one from that single thread?”
ah … i think i finally understand what you meant by those words now, master. to be honest.. i was scared. fate has never been a kind friend to me and so out of fear, i wanted to sever it—sever this. but now that i’m standing here in his arms, melting from this kiss and how it deepens ever so slightly, not with urgency but reverence, each soft press of his lips a whispered oath … i won’t just weave us a new tapestry, i’ll weave our entire future together.
i can no longer imagine a world in which this precious star of mine burns out. i love him — unbearably and so very, very tenderly.

thought about my boy siini again. and his human vampire AU self. he's my son no matter what
(alt versions under the cut!)
ibis paint has fun mirroring features :]
#glowans#low stakes 🦇#my art#it may remind u of a playing card and that's literally because i wanted to be fancy and do this rotational kinda mirror thing#don't worry about it#also sorry about towertrapped again. my dumb ass really thought i could do two comics at once#unfortunately i am only human#and TT is very much the writings of younger me...#ironically vampire siini (simo) is stuck at age 17. that's the age when i was the most unhinged about glowans. he'll always be a teenager#you ever just realize that your ocs are basically a snapshot of how you felt during a time of your life#siini is a moody teenager. created by a moody repressed teenager. looking back at my instagram he was clearly my vent oc. very dear to me#and tbh i probably lowkey wanted to be him EHEHMM;;#who said that#did he trans my gender? maybe. i was still extremely eggy about it at the time but i did identify with him A Lot#and now i'm transmasc nonbinary. hahah#anyway if you remember the days when glowans were my Main Thing you qualify for a veteran's discount tbh#thank you for sticking around <33

No bc Sylus is such a nerd watching national geographic religiously like that😭 such dad vibes ngl “put on earth: animals on the tv, it’s time” he makes Luke and Kieran watch it with him too. Such a father. So dad coded.
#Zayne is husband Caleb is boyfriend Sylus is dad.#it’s just such a fatherly vibe bro😭 like he already has 2 kids so#like you know#maybe that just kinda happens when ur around 2 guys who r 10 yrs younger than you. you just become a father to them. it just be like that ig#fucking national geographic bro 😭 he’s on that discovery channel like that’s some good shit#I came to this conclusion bc my dad also used to watch natgeo religiously and made me sit with him to watch it to the point where the only#channels I liked watching were natgeo and discovery lol so like. yeah. he’s their dad.#somewhat clumsy at it but trying his best to be a good dad.#love and deepspace#love and deepspace sylus

obsessed w/ how many attempts they've made at redesigning gene's younger design over the years to make him look less uncanny and how they failed every single time. he's so fucking ugly. I don't even take any of these designs as canon Bcuz they keep doing my boy DIRTY. soo ugly
#never going to stop thinking abt the person who said gene's toddler design in the second episode makes him look like#he has a rubber band tied tightly around his neck . I CAN NEVER UNSEE THAT NOW BCUZ IT DOES FOR REAL#the only younger gene designs I will accept are from when he was ages five to eight in the christmas card episode. THOSE were good#basically it was just a smaller version of gene WHICH IS WHAT THEY DID FOR LOUISE TOO AND IT LOOKED GOOD!!!!!!!#txt#bob's burgers
