I have seen the Darkness. Fingers frame a face well worn with pain. Prisons of stabbing coldness ever seeking warmth. Loneliness and  sorrow and fear.

I have seen the Light. Moments with loved ones,  treasured and kept. Understanding and compassion and grace. Love that sees past prisons and holds on ever tight.

I see you. I see you struggling bravely against a condition that robs you of so much. I see your anguish, anxiety, depression, terrible sadness. I see your frustration against an enemy that keeps you imprisoned. For many it is a life sentence. Sometimes you get out on parole for a while, but it feels like just when you start to get things together, another migraine slams the cell door shut. I see the prayers you’ve desperately whispered to a God who seems distant and uncaring at times. I see you wondering if He even hears. I see you wrestling with pain despite all of the times you’ve prayed for healing. I see your anger. I see your sorrow. And I understand.

What is The Longest River in The UK 2023?

The river moves, but it follows a path. When it tires of one journey, it rubs through some rock to forge a new way. Hard work, but that's its nature. #river #riverbeauty https://www.instagram.com/p/CRQQK4lNfDl/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Are you alright? You look all shaken up?” She asked in a rather low voice, just happening to notice how they looked and wanted to make sure it wasn’t because of what they were looking at.

What are your feelings about the show’s concept of “true love” and/or TLK?

@riverbeauties​ - Salty OUAT Asks - accepting

I answered this!  But I didn’t say that I really do love that they touch on familial TL.

Closed with @riverbeauties

Tau was doing her homework in her room when she became aware of shouting coming from her dad’s office. With a frown, she set her pencil down and got up, opening her bedroom door. 

The shouting wasn’t any clearer, the soundproofing working relatively well. 

Lips pressed together, Tau started to head for the office, intent on asking what was going on. Before she got any closer, the door to Bruce’s office banged open. 

Tau froze like a deer in headlights.

          “So, once upon a time, I thought it’d be fun to date a Dallas Cowboy.” Eyebrows lifting lightly as she let it sink in, “Needless to say — it was not the least bit fun and a big pain in the arse if I’m honest. Which I usually am, talkin’ ‘bout retrospect.” A smile comes out, giving a shrug, “I know my mistakes well, y’know. No point in hidin’ them. And Liam Jackson was a definite mistake.” 

          “He was cute, don’t get me wrong. Definitely attractive and if you ever wanted to ride a cowboy, he was your guy. He was a straight up businessman….for his dad. The Jackson family was really prominent back in Dallas and other parts of the world as well. Big in oil and his dad was good at growing their families fortunes with investments and the like. I met him once, really charming, but always had the sense that you definitely didn’t wanna get on his bad side. I don’t think Liam liked that I met him even that once. I was never really allowed to his family functions, or really, he never invited me. Which at first, I didn’t mind, his family seemed intense. But then he’d keep canceling on our plans because of them, and… that really started to bug me.”

          Taking a deep breath, she continued, “He was ashamed of me, I think…” She let out a laugh, not seeming to be bothered by it. “I think he was too used to the southern belles that never challenged him or, just ‘cause he was rich, would do anythin’ he wanted. No muss, no fuss, do anythin’ to keep ‘im happy. So, yeah, he was not expectin’ a girl like me. But I was pretty and he fell for a version of me and like it happens with most blokes like ‘im... He didn’t like that it didn’t match up with the real me. Blokes get kinda pissed when that happens, funny how that goes. They think I...tricked them into pretendin’ to be what I’m not, but I honestly don’t, they just see what they wanna see in me. And get mad later.”

          That was always the way, and it was so boring. “I wasn’t in love with ‘im or anythin’, though. I went home with ‘im the first time we met ‘cause he was cute and had money to show off with. But there was an expiration date, honestly surprised it went past a night. There was no happy ending comin’ our way, and I honestly just thought I was bored.” There’s a pause, memories of their last months together coming. “I cheated on ‘im, loads of times. I dunno, I just didn’t care ‘bout hurtin’ ‘im. And he had no problem tellin’ me that I dressed too provocative and inappropriately. Or that I was too blunt, not ladylike. Judgment on more judgment. He was so boring. Yet he still clung onto me when he could, when it was convenient for ‘im. And I let ‘im ‘cause... I dunno, I just did. It went on longer than it should. Until I finally ended it, because one of us had to, and it was just pointless to carry on.” If she had done it earlier, if she had ducked his chasing her after their first night, they could have saved themselves what they had become by their relationship. If one could even call it that. Whenever her mind strayed to Liam, she thought about that, the fact that she could have ended it all before it could have started. She could have been honest, upfront, and they wouldn’t have bothered. “He was a mistake... I wasn’t any better... I’m not a good person, I’ve never pretended to be. I’m a mess and... Liam Jackson was definitely one of my messes.”

@riverbeauties​ liked this for a starter from Kory!

“I’m just saying, unless you want to end up on Gar’s YouTube channel, maybe you should consider fewer late night trips to the store.” And wasn’t that a trip of a sentence to have to actually form. “I hear there was some attempted goldfish liberation.”

“What do you make of all these Villain Kids that are coming over?” She asked the other curiously. She knew there was divided opinion among the older generation. Her parents weren’t against it, but she knew Hercules was actively against them leaving the isle. She’d heard her dad and Hercules arguing about it in her dad’s office in the palace.

“What have they done to you?” - Killian

My muse is being held hostage and is being experimented on. Send me “What have they done to you?” for my muse’s response to yours finding them shackled and chained in a small room.

Emma didn’t know WHERE she was, someone had knocked her over the head and she’d been TAKEN. Barely conscious she could feel every little bit of TORTURE that was inflicted upon her, the shocks to her sides, the IV connections that were on her as well as chains and shackles over her torso and keeping her limbs down. She SWORE she heard Killian’s voice, and she refused to open her eyes incase it was a TRICK. But then, she felt his hook against her skin, trying to undo the shackles. “They want my magic.”

What was the worst flashback(s)?

@riverbeauties - Salty OUAT Asks - accepting

THE FREAKING DAVE’S FATHER THING WTF WAS UP WITH THAT WRITERS! Also, I wasn’t a fan of how Neal and Emma BOTH looked so much older than they were supposed to be in their flashbacks.
